STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN & COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: ALYSSA STUTZ, INTERIM DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS
RE: APPROVAL AND AUTHORIZATION FOR MAYOR TO SIGN
CONTRACT FOR ON-CALL ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES WITH
ECORP CONSULTING, INC.
DATE: JUNE 17, 2025
SUMMARY
The City Council shall consider authorizing the Mayor to sign an on-call environmental services contract with ECORP Consulting, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $75,000.
DISCUSSION
The City of Oroville is committed to maintaining a high standard of environmental stewardship. As part of this commitment, the City often requires specialized environmental engineering services to ensure compliance with federal, state, and local regulations. These services can involve tasks such as environmental assessments, permitting assistance, or remediation of identified environmental hazards.
Currently, there are several ongoing and potential projects that require immediate attention, including culvert replacement projects, and drainage and swale cleanouts. Given the technical expertise needed for these projects and the unpredictable nature of some environmental issues, it is essential to have a local environmental engineering firm available to respond quickly and effectively.
After reviewing multiple local firms, ECORP was selected due to their established reputation, expansive list of services of expertise, previous work with other Engineering firms, and deep understanding of local environmental challenges. The on-call nature of this contract will allow the City to tap into their expertise as necessary without being tied to a fixed scope or timeline.
The $75,000 amount represents a reasonable budget to address anticipated tasks and ensure that the City has access to expert services when environmental concerns arise, particularly in emergency or time-sensitive situations. 131

8.1.3. Automobile Liability Coverage. The CONTRACTOR shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the CONTRACTOR arising out of or in connection with the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for owned, hired, and non-owned vehicles, in an amount of not less than three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000) combined single limit for each occurrence.

CONTRACTOR also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise.
8.2.1. “The CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds with respect to liability arising out of work performed by or on behalf of the CONTRACTOR, including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations.” 136
Item 5.
8.2.2. This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects the CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. Any insurance maintained by the CITY, including any self-insured retention the CITY may have, shall be considered excess insurance only and shall not contribute with this policy.
8.2.3. This insurance shall act for each insured and additional insured as though a separate policy had been written for each, except with respect to the limits of liability of the insuring company.
8.2.4. Notwithstanding the provisions included in any of the ISO Additional Insured Endorsement forms, CONTRACTOR acknowledges that the insurance coverage and policy limits set forth in this section constitute the minimum amounts of coverage required. Any insurance proceeds available to the CITY in excess of the limits and coverage required in this agreement and which is applicable to a given loss will be available to the CITY.
8.2.5. The insurer waives all rights of subrogation against the CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, or agents regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and agrees to require all subcontractors to do likewise.
8.2.6. Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to the CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers.
8.2.7. The insurance provided by this policy shall not be suspended, voided or reduced in coverage or in limits except after thirty (30) days’ written notice has been submitted to the CITY and approved of in writing, except in the case of cancellation, for which ten (10) days’ written notice shall be provided.
8.2.8. Contractor agrees to provide immediate notice to CITY of any claim or loss against Contractor arising out of the work performed under this agreement. CITY assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve CITY.
8.3. Self-Insured Retention/Deductibles. All policies required by this Agreement shall allow CITY, as additional insured, to satisfy the self-insured retention (“SIR”) and/or deductible of the policy in lieu of the CONTRACTOR (as the named insured) should CONTRACTOR fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements. The amount of the SIR or deductible shall be subject to the approval of the CITY Attorney. CONTRACTOR understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by CONTRACTOR as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should CITY pay the SIR or deductible on CONTRACTOR’s behalf upon the CONTRACTOR’s failure or refusal to do so in order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional insured under the policy, CITY may include such amounts as damages in any action 137
Item 5.
against CONTRACTOR for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by CITY due to the breach.

The CONTRACTOR shall provide written evidence of current automobile coverage to comply with the automobile insurance requirement.
8.5. Failure to Procure Insurance. Failure on the part of the CONTRACTOR to procure or maintain required insurance shall constitute a material breach of contract under which the CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.2 above.
9. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBCONTRACTING.
The parties recognize that a substantial inducement to the City for entering into this Agreement is the professional reputation, experience, and competence of the CONTRACTOR. Assignments of any or all rights, duties, or obligations of the CONTRACTOR under this Agreement will be permitted only with the express consent of the CITY. The CONTRACTOR shall not subcontract any portion of the work to be performed under this Agreement without the written authorization of the CITY. If the CITY consents to such subcontract, the CONTRACTOR shall be fully responsible to the CITY for all acts or omissions of the subcontractor. Nothing in this Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between the CITY and subcontractor nor shall it create any obligation on the part of the CITY to pay or to see to the payment of any monies due to any such subcontractor other than as otherwise is required by law.
10. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, CODES, ORDINANCES, AND REGULATIONS.
The CONTRACTOR shall use the standard of care in its profession to comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, codes, ordinances, and regulations.
10.1. Taxes. The CONTRACTOR agrees to pay all required taxes on amounts paid to the CONTRACTOR under this Agreement, and to indemnify and hold the CITY harmless from any and all taxes, assessments, penalties, and interest asserted against the CITY by reason of the independent contractor relationship created by this Agreement. In the event that the CITY is audited by any Federal or State agency regarding the independent contractor status of the CONTRACTOR and the audit in any way fails to sustain the validity of a wholly independent contractor relationship between the CITY and the CONTRACTOR, then the CONTRACTOR agrees to reimburse the CITY for all costs, including accounting and attorneys’ fees, arising out of such audit and any appeals relating thereto.
10.2. Workers’ Compensation Law. The CONTRACTOR shall fully comply with the workers’ compensation law regarding the CONTRACTOR and the CONTRACTOR’s employees. The CONTRACTOR further agrees to indemnify and hold the CITY harmless from any failure of the CONTRACTOR to comply with applicable workers’ compensation laws. The CITY shall have the right to offset against the amount of any compensation due to the CONTRACTOR under this 138
Item 5.
Agreement any amount due to the CITY from the CONTRACTOR as a result of the CONTRACTOR’s failure to promptly pay to the CITY any reimbursement or indemnification arising under this Section.
10.3. Licenses. The CONTRACTOR represents and warrants to the CITY that it has all licenses, permits, qualifications, insurance, and approvals of whatsoever nature which are legally required of the CONTRACTOR to practice its profession. The CONTRACTOR represents and warrants to the DISTRICT that the CONTRACTOR shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep in effect or obtain at all times during the term of this Agreement any licenses, permits, insurance, and approvals which are legally required of the CONTRACTOR to practice its profession.
11. CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
The CONTRACTOR confirms that it has no financial, contractual, or other interest or obligation that conflicts with or is harmful to performance of its obligations under this Agreement. The CONTRACTOR shall not during the term of this Agreement knowingly obtain such an interest or incur such an obligation, nor shall it employ or subcontract with any person for performance of this Agreement who has such incompatible interest or obligation.
12. NON-DISCRIMINATION AND EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY.
The CONTRACTOR represents and agrees that it does not and will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, political affiliation or opinion, medical condition, or pregnancy or pregnancy-related condition. The CONTRACTOR will ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, political affiliation or opinion, medical condition, or pregnancy or pregnancy-related condition. Such action shall include, but not be limited to the following: employment, upgrading, promotion, demotion or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoffs or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship. The CONTRACTOR agrees to include in all solicitations or advertisements for employment and to post in conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment, notices setting forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause.
13. RECORDS AND AUDITS.
The CONTRACTOR shall maintain accounts and records, including personnel, property, and financial records, adequate to identify and account for all costs pertaining to this Agreement and such other records as may be deemed necessary by the CITY or any authorized representative.

14. OWNERSHIP OF DOCUMENTS.
It is understood and agreed that the CITY shall own all documents and other work product of the CONTRACTOR, except the CONTRACTOR’s notes and workpapers, which pertain to the work performed under this Agreement. The CITY shall have the sole right to use such materials in its 139
Item 5.
discretion and without further compensation to the CONTRACTOR. The CONTRACTOR shall at its sole expense provide all such documents to the CITY upon request.
15. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR.
The CONTRACTOR is and shall at all times remain as to the CITY a wholly independent CONTRACTOR. Neither the CITY nor any of its agents shall have control over the conduct of the CONTRACTOR or any of the CONTRACTOR’s employees or agents, except as herein set forth. The CONTRACTOR shall not at any time or in any manner represent that it or any of its agents or employees are in any manner agents or employees of the CITY. The CONTRACTOR shall have no power to incur any debt, obligation, or liability on behalf of the CITY or otherwise act on behalf of the CITY as an agent unless that authority is expressly authorized in writing by CITY. By executing this Agreement, CONTRACTOR confirms and asserts that A) they shall be responsible to direct their own work and are free from CITY control in the precise manner and details of how the work is carried out; B) that the work performed by CONTRACTOR is understood to be outside the scope of the usual course of business carried out by the CITY; and C) that CONTRACTOR is customarily engaged in an independently established trade, occupation, or business of the same nature of that performed for the CITY.
If CONTRACTOR, at any time comes to believe that they are an employee and not an independent contractor, CONTRACTOR shall immediately notify the CITY of such belief. All work to be performed by CONTRACTOR under this Agreement shall be immediately suspended. Contractor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from any and all claims, demands, losses, causes of action, damage, lawsuits, judgments, including attorneys' fees and costs, provided that such claims arise out of or are based upon the Contractor's designation as an independent contractor and not as an employee of the Company. Contractor waives any right to recover from the Company any expenses or losses, including but not limited to those arising from claims that Contractor was misclassified as an independent contractor unless such indemnification is prohibited by law. In the event CONTRACTOR notifies CITY of a purported misclassification, the CITY may elect to immediately terminate this Agreement.

8 Benthic Macroinvertebrate Bioassessment Studies
Bioassessments measure the quality of the stream by analyzing the aquatic life present. Higher levels of appropriate aquatic species tend to indicate a healthy stream, whereas low levels of organisms can indicate stream degradation. ECORP ecologists conduct benthic macroinvertebrate (BMI), algal, and physical habitat bioassessments to determine overall stream health and to evaluate habitat impacts and community structure impairment resulting from altered stream flows, sediment deposition, or contaminant release (e.g., downstream releases from dams, diversions, accidental spills, and hydroelectric power facilities). Our aquatic invertebrate laboratories are located in Rocklin and Santa Ana and provide statewide services. We are approved by California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) to perform bioassessments using the Surface Water Ambient Monitoring Program (SWAMP) protocols or other established or defined sampling methods.

11 California Rapid Assessment Method (CRAM)
The California Rapid Assessment Method (CRAM) was
developed to rapidly assess the status of wetlands
throughout California. It was designed to be a fast, costeffective, standardized and repeatable way to monitor different wetland types across a number of spatial
scales. CRAM scores are based on four attributes that
are considered to be universally shared by all wetlands:
Buffer and Landscape Context, Hydrology, Physical
Structure, and Biotic Structure.
ECORP staff are on the forefront of CRAM development
and frequently provide CRAM assessments for a number of different wetland types including estuaries, rivers, seasonal wetlands, vernal pools, and vernal pools systems. We routinely provide review and feedback to the CRAM development team to help refine and improve these methodologies.
CRAM assessments can be used for a variety of purposes including:
Preliminary wetland assessments
Functions and values assessment
Pre- and post-construction monitoring
Evaluation of restored and created wetlands over time Scores can be used as part of an Alternatives Analysis to determine the least environmentally damaging practicable alternative (LEDPA)

12 Wetland Assessment and Delineation
ECORP has extensive experience conducting assessments and delineations of wetlands and other waters of the United States throughout California, and other Western States. ECORP's biologists are experienced with a broad range of freshwater and coastal wetland communities. Wetland assessments are conducted to identify the presence and approximate extent of potentially jurisdictional waters of the United States (regulated under the federal Clean Water Act), and waters regulated by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is consulted under the federal Endangered Species Act regarding potential effects to federally-listed threatened and endangered species.
Data obtained through assessment investigations are often used during initial project opportunity/constraint analyses. Jurisdictional delineations precisely map and quantify the extent of wetlands and other waters of the United States subject to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers jurisdiction, and regulated under the federal Clean Water Act. Field investigations involve the collection of sitespecific data, including soil characteristics, assessment of plant species composition, and evaluations of hydrologic conditions. Wetland delineations are conducted in accordance with the Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual and the interim supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual: Arid West Region.

17 Laser Scanning and Lidar
ECORP strives to utilize the most current mapping technology and data collection processes. One of the most powerful and promising new data collection technologies is known as Laser Imaging Detection and Ranging (lidar). Lidar data collection relies on an aircraft-mounted, computer-controlled laser that records high precision distance measurements, synchronized with a precision survey grade Global Positioning System (GPS) unit and inertia measurement system. As the aircraft passes over the study site, it has the potential to record high density x,y,z measurements that can later be interpolated into high density digital terrain models (DTMs), topographic contour data, and vegetation height maps.
DTMs interpolated from lidar data provide an accurate data source for spatial analysis, terrain modeling, and change analysis.
ECORP provides access to lidar data collection for our clients by being the point of contact and liaison between the data collection vendor, ground survey crew, and aerial imagery provider. Also, ECORP can potentially help decrease our clients’ costs by combining collection orders to create bulk rate flights with lower project origination fees and aircraft ferry charges. Lidar vendors used by ECORP produce elevation coordinates that meet or exceed National Map Accuracy Standards. Lidar technology provides a cost-effective data collection method for documenting medium to large-scale archaeological features such as bedrock mortar complexes, mine tailings, water conveyance systems, and historic landscapes.
On a smaller scale, ECORP possesses desktop laser scanning capabilities to create three-dimensional models of artifacts, which can then be transformed into plastic models for use as educational tools, in interpretive displays, and to contribute toward preservation of information as part of a data recovery effort. These models can be scaled up or down to meet the needs of the client, and can be painted to replicate material type.

25 Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Licensing Support Under the Federal Power Act, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has the exclusive authority to license non-federal hydropower projects on navigable waterways and federal lands with review of state and federal agencies. Building and operating hydropower projects can affect the natural environment and result in changes to land use, which may be of concern to local citizens and nongovernmental organizations.
On July 23, 2003, FERC issued a Final Rule to revise its regulations pertaining to hydroelectric licensing under the Federal Power Act. Effective October 23, 2003, the revisions would create a new licensing process, the Integrated Licensing Process (ILP). ECORP is proficient at FERC licensing and relicensing, using ILP, Alternative Licensing Process (ALP), and Traditional Licensing Process (TLP). ECORP has conducted several FERC licensing and relicensing efforts, often leading the collaborative effort, and providing technical support for required study elements.

32 Mitigation and Compensation Planning
Habitat mitigation planning, design, permitting, and implementation are some of the most complex issues in the environmental field. It not only requires knowledge of biology/ecology, hydrogeomorphology, horticulture, landscape architecture, and landscape contracting to design, but also a broad understanding of federal and state rules and regulations which ultimately dictate permitting/mitigation success. Often, approval of a project’s mitigation is as complicated as the project entitlement process. ECORP personnel are on the leading edge of mitigation planning and implementation, and are recognized as such by resource agencies such as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). ECORP has developed a strong reputation in this field, and is sought out by private parties, conservation groups, and local governments for our mitigation planning experience.

33 Mitigation Banking
Mitigation banking is the restoration, creation, enhancement, or preservation of a stream, wetland, habitat, or other natural resources to establish credits used to offset or mitigate for the adverse impacts caused by a nearby project. The goal of mitigation banking is to replace or increase the amount or value the specific resource or habitat impacted. Mitigation banks are protected by a perpetual conservation easement, with an endowment or method to fund their maintenance. Mitigation banks provide many advantages over on-site and small parcel mitigation. By combining necessary services to create, maintain, and monitor mitigation, banks are able to provide superior biological services at a lower cost.
Due to the depth of our knowledgeable staff, we often assist mitigation banking firms with specific aspects of the mitigation banking process. Our team of experts can provide habitat assessments, focused species surveys, wetland delineations, cultural resources services and analysis related to hydrology and geomorphology to support the allocation of credits for mitigation or conservation banks.
Additionally, our habitat restoration specialists can prepare planting and construction plans needed to create or restore habitat to bring additional value to your project.
ECORP also is well-versed in the mitigation and conservation banking approval process. From preparing feasibility analyses to extensive Bank Enabling Instruments, ECORP staff have entitled banks from the initial assessment of the property to coordinating credit sales on behalf of the bank owner/sponsor.

51 Terrestrial Lidar and Bathymetry Acquisition and Analysis ECORP strives to utilize the most current mapping technology and data collection processes. One of the most powerful and promising new data collection technologies is known as Laser Imaging Detection and Ranging (lidar). Lidar data collection relies on an aircraft-mounted, computer-controlled laser that records high precision distance measurements, synchronized with a precision survey grade Global Positioning System (GPS) unit and inertia measurement system. As the aircraft passes over the study site it has the potential to record high density x,y,z measurements that can later be interpolated into high density digital terrain models (DTMs), topographic contour data, and vegetation height maps.
DTMs interpolated from lidar data provide an accurate data source for spatial analysis, terrain modeling and change analysis.
ECORP provides access to lidar data collection for our clients by being the point of contact and liaison between the data collection vendor, ground survey crew, and aerial imagery provider. Also, ECORP can potentially help decrease our client’s costs by combining collection orders to create bulk rate flights with lower project origination fees and aircraft ferry charges. Lidar vendors used by ECORP produce elevation coordinates that meet or exceed National Map Accuracy Standards. Lidar technology provides a cost-effective data collection method for medium to large project sites.

53 Image Processing and Land Cover Analysis
ECORP maintains an extensive collection of both historic and contemporary aerial photos and remotelysensed images in a spatial data library. These include datasets from aerial photos taken by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture (USDA) in the 1920s and 1930s, to current multi-band remotely sensed satellite images. Our in-house digital images are either geo-referenced or orthorectified and available for immediate use on projects. ECORP has extensive experience in accessing imagery from federal agencies, archival services and spatial data clearinghouses and can geo-reference most images.
Archival aerials are useful in determining past land use and land cover information, such as historic wetland locations, patterns of agricultural use, and identification of potential cultural resources.
Current imagery is useful in conducting site assessments of species habitat, surrounding land use, and site conditions. Multi-spectral imagery can be particularly useful in land cover classification and feature identification, utilizing additional spectral information to quickly identify particular land uses and natural resource features.
ECORP uses a wide array of image processing software
and analysis tools to assist in feature classification and identification. This includes pattern recognition and
feature extraction to identify specific features of interest such as individual trees or man-made structures, and
multi-band spectral image analysis for identifying trends and land cover classes. ECORP study plans incorporate
both supervised and unsupervised classification systems for maximum flexibility. These tools are particularly
useful for satisfying general plan provisions for tree
canopy preservation and impact analysis. More complex
analysis can be completed by combining imagery and
Laser Imaging Detection and Ranging (lidar) data to
assess vegetation elevations and density.

CITY OF OROVILLE
STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: RUTH DUNCAN, ASSISTANT CITY ADMINISTRATOR -
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES
RE: UPDATE OF USER AND REGULATORY FEES
DATE: JUNE 17, 2025
SUMMARY
The City Council shall consider adopting the attached resolution updating and establishing user and regulatory fees.
DISCUSSION
The City completed a comprehensive study in February 2023 to identify the cost of providing various user and regulatory fee-related services. As part of the study, a consolidated schedule of fees was prepared and adopted by the City Council.
The resolution adopting the current fee schedule directed that fees shall be increased annually, each July 1, based on the annual change in the Consumer Price Index, All Urban Consumers, San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward, CA (CPI), not to exceed five percent (5%) per year. If the CPI does not change or goes down in a given year, no change shall be made to the fee schedule for that year unless an adjustment is made to cost recovery levels or fee study findings indicate that an adjustment is appropriate. The fee schedule proposed for adoption for the period July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026 reflects the 2.76% annual change in CPI.
Environmental Impact
Adoption of updated costs and charges is not considered a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) based on Section 15273 of the CEQA Guidelines. No other CEQA action is required.
Effective Date
In order to comply with California Government Code Section 66017, which outlines procedures for adopting fees, any new or increased development fees adopted by the City Council shall go into effect not sooner than 60 days after adoption. Consequently, staff recommends an effective date of July 1, 2025, for all fee adjustments.
213
Item 8.
FISCAL IMPACT
Any enhanced cost recovery is intended to “offset” the costs of existing services being provided by the City. Recovering these costs from service recipients will free up critical General Fund resources to be used for services and activities available to all Oroville residents and businesses, such as public safety, public works, and parks maintenance services.
RECOMMENDATION
ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 9387 ADJUSTING AND ESTABLISHING USER AND REGULATORY FEES.

RESOLUTION NO. 9387
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF OROVILLE, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING AN UPDATED SCHEDULE OF USER AND REGULATORY FEES.
WHEREAS, user and regulatory fees are established by the City Council; and WHEREAS, in 2023 the City completed a study to identify the cost of providing various user and regulatory fee-related services; and
WHEREAS, the study examined fee-related services provided by the City, the costs reasonably borne by the City in providing those services, the beneficiaries of those services, and the revenues produced by those paying fees and charges for special services; and WHEREAS, the City Council finds that providing these services is of special benefit to applicants both separate and apart from the general benefit to the public; and therefore, in the interests of fairness to the general public, the City desires to better recover the costs of providing these services from applicants who have sought or require the City's services by revising its schedule of fees; and
WHEREAS, the City Council hereby finds that the study provides adequate evidence to conclude that the revised fees do not exceed the reasonable costs to provide the services for which the fees are charged; and
WHEREAS, the City Council desires that annually the City Administrator may increase various fees based on the annual percentage change in the all-urban Consumer Price Index for the San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward Area (CPI), not to exceed five percent (5%) per year. If the CPI does not change or goes down in a given year, no change shall be made to the fee schedule that year; and
WHEREAS, in adopting this Resolution, the City Council is taking action only on those fees for the services, programs or products set forth in Exhibit “A” which have been modified from prior resolutions of the City Council. The remaining fees that have not been modified from prior resolutions shall remain in full force and effect.
WHEREAS, prior to adopting adjustments to fees, the City Council shall have the opportunity to review and consider said adjustments.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Oroville City Council as follows:
Section 1. Each WHEREAS paragraph, set forth above, is hereby adopted as a specific finding of this City Council.
Section 2. The City Council hereby adopts the schedule of fees as set forth in attached Exhibit "A" and incorporated by this reference.
Section 3. Annually on July 1, commencing July 1, 2024, various fees in the fee schedule may be updated based on the prior year annual change in the CPI, not to exceed 5%. If the CPI does not change or goes down in a given year, no change shall be made to the fee schedule that year.
215
Item 8.
Section 4. Any new or adjusted fees adopted by this Resolution shall go into effect upon adoption.

RE: NEW CONTRACT WITH CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF FORESTRY
AND FIRE PROTECTION (CAL FIRE) FOR FUTURE FIRE PROTECTION
SERVICES AND COST ANALYSIS
DATE: JUNE 17, 2025
SUMMARY
The City Council shall consider entering into either a new three year contract with CAL FIRE to extend fire protection services. Council shall also receive an analysis of the costs of the contract.
DISCUSSION
The City entered into an agreement with CAL FIRE in July of 2022 to provide fire protection personnel services for the City. The agreement is for three years and is scheduled to terminate on June 30, 2025. The agreement is for personnel services only, with the City continuing to provide facility, equipment and operational expenses.
Prior to entering into the agreement with CalFire, the City of Oroville had its own City Fire Department which provided fire protection services.
On November 19, 2024 staff presented information on both models of fire protection services (City operated and contracting with CAL FIRE). Both models have proven to provide the City with outstanding fire protection services. With the existing contract scheduled to terminate in June, staff recommend a new contract be executed with CAL FIRE for continued fire protection services.
On May 20, 2025, the Council adopted Resolution No. 9375 directing staff to bring back a three-year agreement with CAL FIRE for Fire Protection services. In addition, staff were directing to bring back an analysis of the contract costs. Estimated costs are for the contract (which includes a full-time heavy equipment mechanic):
Fiscal Year 2025/26 - $6,348,988
Fiscal Year 2026/27 - $6,602,948
Fiscal Year 2027/28 - $6,867,066

The purpose of this agreement is to provide mutually advantageous fire and emergency services through an effective consolidated organization, wherein the STATE is primarily financially responsible for protecting natural resources from vegetation fires and the LOCAL AGENCY is primarily financially responsible for protecting life and property from fires and other emergencies. The LOCAL AGENCY shall have sole authority to establish the fire protection organization and structure needed to meet the determined level of service.

dispatching emergency resource units covered under this agreement. The CAL FIRE ECC is staffed with a Battalion Chief, three or more Fire Captains and Communications Operators to provide 24/7 year-round coverage. There is always an officer of Captain rank or higher to serve as the shift supervisor and command officer. CAL FIRE uses an integrated Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system using the latest technology, to direct the closest available resources to all emergency incidents.

E. The Unit Chief shall exercise professional judgment consistent with STATE policy and his or her employment by STATE in authorizing or making any assignments to emergencies and other responses, including assignments made in response to requests for mutual aid.
F. Except as may be otherwise provided for in this agreement, STATE shall not incur any obligation on the part of LOCAL AGENCY to pay for any labor, materials, supplies or services beyond the total set forth in the respective Exhibit D, Schedules A and C, as to the services to be rendered pursuant to each Schedule.

3. SUPPRESSION COST RECOVERY
As provided in Health and Safety Code (H&SC) Section 13009, STATE may bring an action for collection of suppression costs of any fire caused by negligence, violation of law, or failure to correct noticed fire safety violations. When using LOCAL AGENCY equipment and personnel under the terms of this agreement, STATE may, at the request of LOCAL AGENCY, bring such an action for collection of costs incurred by LOCAL AGENCY. In such a case LOCAL AGENCY appoints and designates STATE as its agent in said collection proceedings. In the event of recovery, STATE shall deduct fees and litigation costs in a proportional percentage amount based on verifiable and justifiable suppression costs for the fire at issue. These recovery costs are for services provided which are beyond the scope of those covered by the local government administrative fee.
In all such instances, STATE shall give timely notice of the possible application of H&SC Section 13009 to the representative designated by LOCAL AGENCY.
4. MUTUAL AID
When rendering mutual aid or assistance as authorized in H&SC Sections 13050 and 13054, STATE may, at the request of LOCAL AGENCY, demand payment of charges and seek reimbursement of LOCAL AGENCY costs for personnel, equipment and operating expenses as funded herein, under authority given by H&SC Sections 13051 and 13054. STATE, in seeking said reimbursement pursuant to such request of LOCAL AGENCY, shall represent LOCAL AGENCY by following the procedures set forth in H&SC Section 13052. Any recovery of LOCAL AGENCY costs, less expenses, shall be paid or credited to LOCAL AGENCY, as directed by LOCAL AGENCY.
In all such instances, STATE shall give timely notice of the possible application of H&SC Sections 13051 and 13054 to the officer designated by LOCAL AGENCY.

LOCAL AGENCY shall be responsible for all costs associated with property required by personnel to carry out this agreement.

Alternately, the STATE will supply all PPE and the LOCAL AGENCY will be billed for costs incurred.
All property provided by LOCAL AGENCY and by STATE for the purpose of providing fire protection services shall be marked and accounted for by the Unit Chief in such a manner as to conform to the regulations, if any, established by the parties for the segregation, care, and use of the respective properties.

15. UNENFORCEABLE PROVISION: In the event that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable or held to be unenforceable, then the parties agree that all other provisions of this Agreement have force and effect and shall not be affected thereby.
16. COMPLIANCE WITH THE HEALTH INSURANCE PORTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY
ACT (HIPAA)
The STATE and LOCAL AGENCY have a responsibility to comply with the provisions of the 1996 Federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the 2001 State Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Implementation Act. HIPAA provisions become applicable once the association and relationships of the health care providers are determined by the LOCAL AGENCY. It is the LOCAL AGENCY’S responsibility to determine their status as a “covered entity” and the relationships of personnel as “health care providers”, “health care clearinghouse”, “hybrid entities”, business associates”, or “trading partners”. STATE personnel assigned to fill the LOCAL AGENCY’S positions within this Agreement, and their supervisors, may fall under the requirements of HIPAA based on the LOCAL AGENCY’S status.

• Both models, Oroville Fire Department (OFD) and CAL FIRE have provided effective fire protection services to the Community. • Presentation is designed to factually show some of the differences between these two models.
• Presentation isn’t designed to say one model is better than the other.
• Staff will be seeking direction regarding how the Council would like to proceed with future fire protection services for the City. 315

Staffing Summary
Staffing Summary
• Both models (OFD and CAL FIRE) have provided similar staffing with regard to numbers (18 fire fighter personnel)
• Dispatch services moved from the City to the State (reduction of 2 City FTE’s)
• Two apparatuses have been staffed in both models (1 Engine and 1 truck)
• OFD had a 56-hour workweek, while CAL FIRE has utilized a 72- hour work week (resulting in an increase in available staff hours) • These additional hours have provided the City with 3 staff per apparatus with CAL FIRE vs. 2 staff per apparatus with OFD 317
Item 9.
Staffing Summary
Staffing Summary Continued
• CAL FIRE will be moving to a 66-hour work week later in November this year.
• This change / reduction in hours worked will require 3 additional fire personnel to meet current schedule
• It is believed that the State will eventually move to a 56-hour workweek within the next 3-5 years.
• Moving from a 66-hour workweek to a 56-hour workweek will NOT result in the need for additional staff based on current model of staffing two engines (the addition of 3 staff for the current 66-hour change will provide sufficient staff).
318
Item 9.
Staffing Summary
Staffing Summary Continued

• This is a new cost related to staffing demands in Public Works. • Fire Marshall duties and weed abatement duties have shifted to the City in the transition to CAL FIRE.
• City looking into enhancing current Fire Marshall capacity. • Recruitment, collective bargaining, personnel matters have shifted to the State.
• Absences are covered immediately by other State fire personnel. 319

Familiarization of City
A City fire department operates under the direct authority of the City government, allowing for greater control over staffing (ie. 2 vs. 3 per engine), qualifications, operations, and budgeting. This can lead to a more customized Department.
Local City firefighters may be more familiar with the City’s specific layout, hazards, and challenges. They also may be more familiar with City administrative / operational services A City run fire department has more flexibility to focus on specific local needs such as urban firefighting, hazardous materials response, medical emergencies (EMT), Fire Marshal duties, annual fire inspections, weed abatement and specific request by City staff.
Oroville Fire Department
While establishing and maintaining a local fire department may have high upfront costs, Cities may see some long-term financial
benefits from keeping control over their resources, hiring local personnel, and managing their own operations efficiently. 05 Administrative
City ran fire departments may be able to
streamline decision making processes. With local
leadership directly overseeing the department,
there’s less bureaucracy compared to a larger
department run or contracted service. This could
lead to quicker decisions on staffing, budget
adjustments, and operational changes.

Cost Analysis Summary
• There are many nuances associated with compensation – and assumptions made in developing predicted costs.
• Some key variables to consider:
• Either model – costs will / are rising.
• With an OFD model – the City would certainly need to keep pace with neighboring communities to remain competitive. • With a CAL FIRE model – the City is subject to State bargain rates.

Fire Prevention Bureau
Health and Safety Codes require an annual fire safety inspection of commercial occupancies. Oroville has 1,600 commercial occupancies. One full time inspector is capable of 500 fire safety inspections per year. The Fire Department in the past has utilized Engine Companies to add personnel to accomplish a portion of these inspections, but with the level of emergency activity this method has become impractical. This activity has been reprioritized to the high risk occupancies and new construction.
With additional high activity overtime staffing of the Ladder Truck from the Indian Supplemental Benefit Fund, we have assigned these personnel to fire safety inspection program. Examples are 87 Fire Sprinkler systtems and 26 Apartment fire safety inspections. Our difficulty presented now exists with the follow-up work on inspections problems.
National Fire Protection Standard 1452 Section 3-5 indicates the need for annual home fire safety inspections. Oroville has 5,419 residential living units. In Calendar year 2003 the fire department accomplished 174 of these inspections. Again staff prioritized the homes threatened by wild land fire.
To maintain an effective Fire Prevention Program additional personnel will be required. 339

3 New Fire Fighter Positions
Budget Page K-14
1. Increase in Emergency Suppression Personnel – 3 new Fire Fighter positions. The emergency service activity has increased each year in intensity and diversity. The outside agency agreements are at maximum effort in assistance to the City. Even with these other resources our service is averaging 15.06% simultaneous
calls. This means this amount of time we have to rely upon resources from other agencies and cities. The personnel level has not changed since 1983-84 budget year. That year this
department provided service to 1,347 emergencies. For the calendar year 2004 the department provided service to 3,697 emergency incidents a substantial workload increase that is best supported with an increase in personnel. The new three new fire fighters positions will be divided and assigned to each shift balancing the workload to each shift. The request would be a start to bring the department back to previous 1982-83 emergency personnel staffing level.

2. Request to replace fire hose that is beyond
repair or has failed the minimum pressure
test. The Fire Department has a great need
for fire hose. This equipment is essential to
the delivery of service. Newer composite
synthetic hose is delivering longer service life
than older cotton jacket. But we have found
for local Wildland and special operations use
the single jacket cotton hose is a better buy
for the service. This request will keep the
field operations at the best level of service
we can supply.

relied upon for essential department functions. This
budget fund has had no increase in 8 years and the
consequence of less buying power for necessary

Department Head Concerns
Fire, Rescue and Emergency Services calls for service are increasing each year.
The need exists for more personnel assigned to fire
prevention
The need exists for more personnel with fire suppression and emergency activities
The need exists for more funding for certification training The need is currently becoming apparent for 2 fire stations with personnel to the east and west areas of Oroville in order to maintain equal service to 90% of Oroville.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: RUTH DUNCAN, ASSISTANT CITY ADMINISTRATOR,
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES
RE: ADOPTED BUDGET FOR 2025-26
DATE: JUNE 17, 2025
SUMMARY
The City Council shall receive the fiscal year 2025-26 Budget for Council adoption.
DISCUSSION
The City Council is presented with a 2025-26 Budget, which reflects staff analysis and recommendations. The Budget, if adopted, will be the City’s working Budget.
MAJOR HIGHLIGHTS
Revenues
The City’s main revenue source has been decreasing in the prior year, current year and projected to decrease again for this budget year 2025-26. The overall decrease is expected to be approximately 10.2% for the regular sales tax over three years, and
12.7% for the 1% District Tax over three years. This is a major challenge to the budget when our overall expenditures are increasing.
Sales tax projections:
Regular Sales Tax projections:
1% District Tax projections:
392
Item 10.
Another revenue source in the form of a Hazard Mitigation Grant is scheduled to end in the budget year with no revenue source to fund positions in Code Enforcement, Planning and Public Works. The net effect of not having this grant is approximately $600,000 in the current budget.
Expenditures
The majority of our expenditures continues to be salaries and benefits. Salaries and benefits continue to rise as cost-of-living increases and pension funding increases.
Along with other increases, they continue to outpace our revenue sources. A major cost increase in Fire Protection services has been seen as legislative mandates in Fire personnel shifts have had a big effect on our service contract. Total increase for 2025- 26 is $985,304.
Expenditure Focus:
Road Repairs, road rehabilitation continues to be a high priority for the City and are included in this budget. The City utilizes many sources for road maintenance and is getting many projects done. The City is planning for this year and future years projects in a methodical approach.
Staffing/Recruitment/Training, this goal is to hire a full staff. This goal is going to be the most challenging, given the problem is nation-wide and difficult to achieve. Staff will be working hard to keep positions filled. Discussions on recruitment and retention are slated. The City is also working on a compensation study to see where we are in comparison to other jurisdictions.
Addressing our aged fleet, the workshop brought up a conversation regarding our aged Fleet. This budget reflects a continued effort to update our fleet.
Fund Balance Assignments
Staff is recommending the following assignments of unassigned fund balance, per the City’s Fund Balance policy.
500,000 assigned to Contingency
2 million assigned to Capital projects to compliment the projects already identified 4.5 million assigned to address pension challenges
In total, the recommendation is to assign 7 million for future costs that are not specifically budgeted for.
Summary
Moving forward we need to be cognizant of ongoing challenges, pension challenges are foremost. We need to be ready for future downturns and legislative hurtles. We owe an ongoing debt of gratitude to the voters for approving the District Sales Tax that has afforded the City an opportunity to restructure and regain our workforce. Financially sustainability is the goal.

TO: Mayor Pittman and Council Members
FROM: Brian Ring, City Administrator
DATE: June 17, 2025
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2025-26 Budget
Presented before you is the proposed Fiscal Year 2025-26 (FY 25-26) budget. The Finance Department and representatives from all City departments have worked diligently to develop a budget that addresses many of the current goals and priorities of the Council, despite rising costs and decreasing revenues. Very high level, staff are proud to say that the City will go into FY 25-26 maintaining a very healthy reserve of $9,000,000 and sufficient resources to address several of the Council’s priorities of public safety, roads, economic/community development, and infrastructure needs. The estimated revenues in the General Fund, which includes the District Sales Tax Fund (DSTF), are anticipated to be relatively flat / slightly down this FY at $27,259,725. Estimated expenditures are anticipated to be $28,867,606.
The DSTF has positioned the City to better address several of the City’s needs. With that said, this past fiscal year staff worked to identify the magnitude of the road and infrastructure needs of the City, which are significant. Staff will be making it a priority to work with our Federal and State partners to continue to identify additional funding sources to help address these matters.
There are a significant number of projects that staff will be working on this Fiscal Year.
These projects include the following:
Priority Projects
Emphasis to do more road repair work in-house
Ophir Road
Montgomery Street roundabout repair
Bedrock Park repair work
New Corporation Yard design work and infill Work
Master Drainage Plan
Table Mountain and Washington Complete Streets design and environmental work (grant funded)
Hewitt Park (grant and park impact fee funded)
Western Public Safety Facility analysis (CFD funded)

Storm drain matter
Emergency bypass at Riverview lift station
Upgraded lift station at Orangewood
Airport-FBO reroof
Airport-PAPI and REIL lighting replacements
Airport-access gate upgrade
Museums – roof and HVAC repairs
Other Projects
Norton Avenue rehab
Nelson Ave (between 6th Street and City limits)
Acacia / Orange roundabout study
Oro Dam Blvd East rehab/sidewalk gap closure design work Foothill storm drain design
Oro Quincy rehab design
Georgia Pacific rehab
Convention Center exterior work
City Hall renovation
Other matters included in this year’s budget:
Funding to address the implementation of a 66-hour workweek with CalFire Continued work with consultants on rebranding and marketing the City The net addition of 2.85 new positions to better meet operational demands (to highlight a few – GIS Technician, Assistant Civil Engineer, Lead Park Technician Equipment Mechanic, Public Works Operator).
Staff will be making it a prior to identify options for Council consideration that will support long-term fiscal sustainability. With costs forecasted to continue to outpace revenues, this activity needs to be a priority.
To better position the City for future expenses, staff are recommending assigning the anticipated General Fund’s fund balance (approximately $7M) to the following:
$4.5M – Unfunded pension obligations
$2M – Capital Projects (to assist with projects currently being worked on) $500K – Contingency for FY 25-26 to address unanticipated / unbudgeted costs
In summary, the City’s fiscal situation is stable, however with expenses continuing to outpace revenues, action is needed to ensure fiscal stability. There are a number of exciting projects in the budget this fiscal year – and significant efforts to attract developers to the City for both market rate housing and economic development. In addition, new tools will be deployed this fiscal year to help staff manage the City moving into the future in the most efficient manner (new City website, Computerized Maintenance Management System and a 311 tool).
I wanted to take a moment to share my appreciation for the dedicated City staff. While Oroville may be a small city, there are a significant number of initiatives being implemented. It is the dedication and foresight of the City staff, with the Council’s direction, that are pushing this City in a great direction. 401
