RE: CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION DECLARING CITY OWNED

PROPERTY LOCATED AS EXEMPT SURPLUS LAND AND MAKING

ASSOCIATED FINDINGS
DATE: NOVEMBER 4, 2025

SUMMARY
The City Council shall consider approving a resolution declaring the City-owned property9 Midway as Exempt Surplus Land and making associated findings.

DISCUSSION
City recently acquired property (APN: 033-232-008) through Foreclosure. City staff wishes to place this home for sale at market rate to recoup the city’s investment.

In order to satisfy the requirements for such a declaration that the properties are exempt surplus land, the City Council must make certain findings.

The City may then dispose of the property for that purpose at fair market value and under conditions that the City deems to be best suited to the provision of such housing.

2. RENT, TAXES AND FEES: You will pay the monthly Payment (as adjusted) when due, plus any applicable sales, use and property taxes. The base Payment will be adjusted proportionately upward or downward: (1) by up to 10% to accommodate changes in the actual Equipment cost; (2) if the shipping charges or taxes differ from the estimate given to you; and (3) to comply with the tax laws of the state in which the Equipment is located. If we pay any taxes, insurance or other expenses that you owe hereunder, you agree to reimburse us when we request and to pay us a processing fee for each expense or charge we pay on your behalf. We may charge you for any filing fees required by the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) or other laws, which fees vary state-to-state. By the date the first Payment is due, you agree to pay us an origination fee of $150, as shown on our invoice or addendum, to cover us for all closing costs. We will have the right to apply all sums, received from you, to any amounts due and owed to us under the terms of this Agreement.

You will notify us within 30 days if your state of organization revokes or terminates your existence.

4. COLLATERAL PROTECTION; INSURANCE; INDEMNITY; LOSS OR DAMAGE: You agree to keep the Equipment fully insured against risk and loss, with us as lender’s loss payee, in an amount not less than the original cost until this Agreement is terminated. You also agree to obtain a general public liability insurance policy with such coverage and from such insurance carrier as shall be satisfactory to us and to include us as an additional insured on the policy. Your insurance policy(s) will provide for 10 days advance written notice to us of any modification or cancellation. You agree to provide us certificates or other evidence of insurance acceptable to us. If you fail to comply with this requirement within 30 days after the start of this Agreement, you agree to one of the following options, the selection of which is at our sole discretion: (1) we may obtain insurance covering our interest (and only our interest) in the Equipment for the Agreement term and renewals. Any insurance we obtain will not insure you against third party or liability claims and may be cancelled by us at any time. You may be required to pay us an additional amount each month for the insurance premium and an administrative fee. The cost may be more than the cost of obtaining your own insurance; or (2) we may charge you a monthly property damage surcharge of up to .0035 of the Equipment cost as a result of our credit risk and administrative and other costs, as would be further described on a letter from us to you. We may make a profit on this program. NOTHING IN THIS PARAGRAPH WILL RELIEVE YOU OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR LIABILITY INSURANCE ON THE EQUIPMENT. We are not responsible for, and you agree to hold us harmless and reimburse us for and to defend on our behalf against, any claim for any loss, expense, liability or injury caused by or in any way related to delivery, installation, possession, ownership, use, condition, inspection, removal, return or storage of the Equipment, although we reserve the right to participate in the defense and to select or approve defense counsel. You are responsible for the risk of loss or for any destruction of or damage to the Equipment. You agree to promptly notify us in writing of any loss or damage.

If the Equipment is destroyed and we have not otherwise agreed in writing, you will pay to us the unpaid balance of this Agreement, including any future rent to the end of the term plus the anticipated purchase price of the Equipment (both discounted at 3%). Any proceeds of insurance will be paid to us and credited, at our option, against any loss or damage. You authorize us to sign on your behalf and appoint us as your attorney-in-fact to endorse in your name any insurance drafts or checks issued due to loss or damage to the Equipment. All indemnities will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

5. ASSIGNMENT: WE ARE THE OWNER OF THE EQUIPMENT. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO SELL, TRANSFER, ASSIGN OR SUBLEASE THE EQUIPMENT OR THIS AGREEMENT, without our prior written consent.

Without our prior written consent, you shall not reorganize or merge with any other entity or transfer all or a substantial part of your ownership interests or assets. You agree that we may sell or assign the Agreement without notice and the new Lessor will have the same rights that we have now and will not have to perform any of our obligations. You agree that the new Lessor will not be subject to any claims, defenses, or offsets that you may have against us.

YOU AGREE THAT WE WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE TO PAY YOU ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES FOR ANY DEFAULT, ACT OR OMISSION BY ANYONE. Any delay or failure to enforce our rights under this Agreement will not prevent us from enforcing any rights at a later time. You agree that this Agreement is a "Finance Lease" as defined by Article 2A of the UCC and your rights and remedies are governed exclusively by this Agreement. You waive all rights under sections 2A-508 through 522 of the UCC. If interest is charged or collected in excess of the maximum lawful rate, we will not be subject to any penalties.

All notices shall be mailed or delivered by facsimile transmission or overnight courier to the respective parties at the addresses shown on this Agreement or such other address as a party may provide in writing from time to time.

RE: SECOND READING AND ADOPTION OF ORDINANCE AMENDING
OMC CHAPTER 5.06 – ALIGN BID BILLING/DUE DATES WITH
BUSINESS LICENSE FEES; REPLACE NEW-BUSINESS WAIVER

WITH PRORATION
DATE: NOVEMBER 4, 2025

SUMMARY
The City Council shall conduct the second reading and consider adopting an ordinance amending Oroville Municipal Code (OMC) Chapter 5.06 (Downtown Oroville Business Improvement District) to:

1. Align the collection of BID assessments with business license fees by making BID assessments due January 31 each year (billed January 1), and

DISCUSSION
Background.

At its regular meeting of October 21, 2025, the City Council conducted a public hearing and introduced an ordinance amending OMC Chapter 5.06. The proposed changes were designed to streamline billing and ensure fair participation among new businesses in the Downtown Oroville Business Improvement District (BID).

Proposed Amendments.
 OMC 5.06.080 (Collection): Revised so the BID assessment is billed January 1 and due January 31 of the same calendar year, concurrent with the business license due date.
31 Item 4.

Page 2 ends

 OMC 5.06.070 (New Businesses): Replaced the existing first-year waiver with a proration formula:

Annual Assessment ÷ 12 × Number of Months Remaining in the Calendar Year The initiation month is counted as a full month, and “initiation” is defined as the date of business-license issuance. No proration applies to ownership or location changes of existing businesses.

Rationale.

Aligning due dates simplifies compliance, reduces administrative overhead, and provides earlier cash flow for the BID. The proration approach ensures that new businesses contribute proportionally based on the duration of their benefit within the first year.

Council Action to Date.

During the first reading, the Council unanimously introduced the ordinance and waived further reading. No written or oral protests were received during the public hearing.

Implementation.

Upon adoption, the ordinance will take effect 30 days after approval. The first unified billing cycle will begin January 1 following the effective date. Staff will coordinate with the Finance Department and the Downtown BID to notify businesses and provide guidance on the new proration formula.

FISCAL IMPACT
Administrative costs associated with preparing, noticing, and implementing the ordinance are minimal and can be absorbed within existing departmental budgets.

Aligning billing cycles is expected to improve cash flow for the BID and modestly increase revenue by replacing the first-year waiver with proration.

ACTION(S) REQUESTED -

1. CONDUCT THE SECOND READING BY TITLE ONLY AND ADOPT THE ORDINANCE AMENDING OMC SECTIONS 5.06.070 AND 5.06.080 AS PRESENTED; AND

2. AUTHORIZE STAFF TO IMPLEMENT THE CHANGES AND COORDINATE

WITH THE DOWNTOWN BID TO ENSURE A SMOOTH TRANSITION TO THE REVISED BILLING CYCLE.

CITY OF OROVILLE

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: RON BELSER, DIRECTOR OF CODE ENFORCEMENT
RE: AGREEMENT AMENDMENT #2 WITH HOPE CENTER (CITY WORKS) DATE: NOVEMBER 4, 2025

SUMMARY
The City Council shall consider approving an amendment to the agreement with the Hope Center, “City Works Program” to continue to provide services to the City of Oroville and to increase the budget for the program.

DISCUSSION
Since December 2016, the City of Oroville and the Hope Center have partnered to operate the City Works Program, a proven initiative that provides valuable community services while supporting individuals in need of employment and job training opportunities. Both parties have consistently met all guidelines and performance expectations outlined in our agreement.

After nine successful years and exhausting current grant funding, it is time to reexamine and update this agreement to reflect current operational needs and costs.

Over the past three years, wages and related expenses for the City Works Program have been supported by the Clean Streets Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). This grant has significantly benefited both the City and the program; however, funds were exhausted in June 2025.

The current annual contract for City provided funding for the City Works Program is $30,000. Due to increased program demands and expenses, we have already exceeded this amount by approximately $17,000. To sustain operations and maintain program quality through this fiscal year, staff are requesting to increase the annual City funded program budget from $30,000 to $115,000. This will add an additional $85,000 to the existing $30,000.
42 Item 5.

Page 2 ends

This increase will cover the existing $17,000 shortfall and provide full funding for program operations through June 2026.

At that time, the City of Oroville will again review the budget and program outcomes to determine future funding needs.

The City Works Program continues to demonstrate its value to the City of Oroville and its citizens by enhancing community cleanliness, safety, and quality of life, while offering participants a pathway to stability and success. This partnership remains an essential and effective investment in the improvement of our city and its citizens.

FISCAL IMPACT
$85,000.00 to be paid with Contingency Fund dollars (5/7 vote required).

ACTION(S) REQUESTED –

1. APPROVE AN INCREASE IN THE ANNUAL HOPE CENTER AGREEMENT (CITY WORKS PROGRAM) BUDGET FROM $30,000 TO $115,000 TO ENSURE CONTINUED PROGRAM OPERATIONS THROUGH JUNE 2026;

CITY OF OROVILLE

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN & COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: PATRICK PIATT, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
RE: RATIFICATION OF AGREEMENT WITH DAY, CARTER AND

MURPHY AND RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF OROVILLE ESTABLISHING ORO VERDE, OROVILLE’S NEW

PUBLIC UTILITY
DATE: NOVEMBER 4, 2025

SUMMARY
The City Council shall consider adopting a Resolution No. 9417 (attachment 1) authorizing the establishment of Oro Verde, a municipally owned public utility created to serve industrial businesses within the City of Oroville. This initiative represents a collaborative partnership with the Butte Renewable Energy Initiative (BREI), which will fully fund the development and construction of renewable energy generation and transmission infrastructure to be gifted to the City for ownership, operation, and maintenance.

DISCUSSION
The City of Oroville has taken an increasingly proactive approach to ensuring energy reliability and economic stability for local industry. Establishing Oro Verde aligns with the City’s long-term vision of supporting sustainable economic growth while remaining a cooperative partner with existing energy providers such as PG&E and Pioneer Energy.

To support the legal and regulatory components of utility formation, the City has retained the law firm of Day, Carter, and Murphy with an Engagement Letter (Attachment 2) to provide specialized legal counsel with expertise in public utility establishment and municipal energy systems. This legal support will guide the City through the formation of Oro Verde, regulatory filings, production of agreements, and drafting of operational frameworks.

Under this collaboration, BREI will finance the planning, development, and construction of renewable generation facilities and all related transmission infrastructure. Upon 91 Item 7.

Page 2 ends

completion, the infrastructure will be transferred to the City as a gift, positioning Oroville to locally manage distribution to key industrial customers.

This approach will not replace or compete with existing utilities; rather, it will provide an alternative, complementary service to strengthen energy resiliency and reduce potential downtime risks for Oroville’s industrial businesses. The Oro Verde public utility will operate under Council-approved tariff structures to ensure transparency, equity, and accountability in rate setting.

FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no fiscal impact to the City’s General Fund for the development or construction of Oro Verde’s infrastructure, as BREI will cover all related costs.

To fund the administrative, legal, and consultant expenses necessary for the initial formation and implementation of the public utility, the City will establish a replenishable fund capitalized through a $30,000 deposit provided by BREI. The fund will be replenished as needed to maintain an adequate balance for services required during the formation and early operational phases of Oro Verde.

ACTION(S) REQUESTED -

1. ADOPT THE ATTACHED RESOLUTION NO. 9417 - ESTABLISHING THE

OROVILLE PUBLIC UTILITY AND AUTHORIZE THE COMMUNITY

DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR TO TAKE THE NECESSARY STEPS TO

IMPLEMENT THE FORMATION OF THE PUBLIC UTILITY AND BRING FORWARD FUTURE ACTIONS FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION; AND

CITY OF OROVILLE
RESOLUTION NO. 9417

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF OROVILLE,

CALIFORNIA, AUTHORIZING THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A MUNICIPALLY

OWNED UTILITY
WHEREAS, the City of Oroville (“City”) is a municipal corporation organized, formed and incorporated under the laws of the State of California; and WHEREAS, the California Constitution, art. XI, section 9(a), California Public Utilities Code § 10004, and California Government Code § 39732(a) empower a municipal corporation to establish, purchase, lease, own, and operate public works and utilities to furnish its jurisdiction with electrical power; and WHEREAS, the City recognizes the importance of reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy as essential to the economic and environmental well‑being of the community; and
WHEREAS, the City Council seeks to enhance local control over energy distribution and advance the City's long-term vision for energy resiliency, sustainability, and economic development; and
WHEREAS, a City‑owned public utility may provide opportunities to support local businesses and industries and ensure equitable access to modern energy infrastructure; and
WHEREAS, the City seeks to form a municipally-owned utility system consistent with California and Federal law, through which it may elect to provide electric service to customers located within the City; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that the formation of a municipallyowned utility could enhance the quality of life and provide benefits to the citizens and businesses of the City.

(State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378). The mere creation of the Municipal Utility is an organizational or administrative activity of government that would not result in a reasonably foreseeable direct or indirect physical 93 Item 7.

3. The City of Oroville does hereby establish a Municipal Utility, Oro Verde, to provide electric service in the City of Oroville.

4. The City Administrator, or designee, is hereby authorized to take all necessary steps to create and establish the Municipal Utility, with the power to evaluate the areas, manner, and rates for the potential provision of electric utility services.

5. The Municipal Utility may provide electric service within the boundaries of the City, as determined by the City Administrator, following appropriate evaluation and study and with approval by the City Council.

6. The City Council will determine and may amend, from time to time, the nature of utility service provided by the Municipal Utility.

7. The City Administrator, or designee, is hereby authorized to take all necessary actions to provide for the study of the operation and maintenance of the Municipal Utility, including, but not limited, to:
a. Identifying areas within the City that should be served by the Municipal Utility;
b. Negotiating agreements with consultants, special counsel, underwriter(s), and financial advisors in connection with regulatory, legal, or financial matters for approval by the City Council; c. Identifying power procurement and electric service distribution needs.
d. Recommending utility rates and terms of service.
e. Determining what additional staffing is required, if any.

RE: AMENDMENT TO ELECTED OFFICIALS GUIDING PRINCIPLES

HANDBOOK
DATE: NOVEMBER 4, 2025

SUMMARY
The City Council shall consider amending the Elected Officials Guiding Principles handbook that was adopted by the City Council on December 17, 2024.

DISCUSSION
In 2024, staff were directed to develop a document that would be used by the City Council to provide framework and standards to promote ethical and responsible governance.

The handbook is not intended to be the end all be all for Elected Officials to refer to for every situation they may encounter. It is intended to provide some general guidance and framework.

The handbook was introduced at the December 3, 2024 City Council meeting for input, and adopted by the Council at the December 17, 2024 City Council meeting.

At the request of Mayor Pittman, staff are bringing this document back for review and consideration of changes to the agreement that include language on:
 Training available to new Council members (or to seasoned Council members who would like refresher training);
 Reinforced communication protocols that stress any direct communication to staff requesting some sort of action must include City Administrator – to allow City Administrator to assess whether this is direction that needs majority Council direction;
 Modifications to consequences for not following outlined protocols;  Other suggestions.

excessive staff time that takes away from staff implementing the wishes of the Council (refer further to section 9).

4. Brown Act Compliance
The Ralph M. Brown Act (“Brown Act”) governs open meetings for local government bodies to ensure transparency in decision-making. The Oroville City Council is committed to complying fully with the Brown Act to maintain public trust.  Public Meetings: All Council meetings must be open to the public, except for closed sessions as permitted under specific conditions outlined in the Brown Act.

Some committees and subcommittees are also subject to the Brown Act.

Advisory committees composed solely of members of the legislative body that are less than a quorum of the legislative body are not subject to the Brown Act unless it’s a committee created by formal action that covers continuing subject matters. Ad hoc committee’s containing less that a quorum of the legislative body that are for a limited duration are not likely subject to the Brown Act.

Committees with less than a quorum of the legislative body that also include members of the public or staff, are subject to Brown Act.  Agenda Posting: Meeting agendas must be posted 72 hours before regular meetings and 24 hours before special meetings, outlining all items to be discussed or acted upon. No action can be taken on items not listed on the agenda.
 Quorum and Serial Meetings: Council members must avoid engaging in discussions impacting City business with each other outside of publicly noticed meetings where a quorum (majority of Council) could be present. Serial meetings, a series of private meetings where a majority of the Council commit to voting a certain way, are prohibited.
 Public Participation: The public must be given the opportunity to address the Council during open meetings. Time limits for public comments may be imposed to ensure orderly proceedings, but the public's right to participate must be respected.
 Closed Sessions: Closed sessions are allowed only for specific issues such as litigation, personnel matters, or real estate negotiations. Decisions made in closed sessions must be reported during the open session when required.

Discussions that happen during closed session are confidential and must not be shared.
104
Item 8.

5. Meeting Protocols
 Chairing Meetings: The Mayor (or the Vice Mayor if Mayor is unavailable) will preside over meetings and ensure that the proceedings are orderly. Council members should respect the authority of the presiding officer and adhere to the established meeting procedures.
 Motions and Voting: Council members may introduce motions on any item listed on the agenda. A second is required for a motion to be considered. If multiple motions are made, voting shall take place according to Rosenberg’s Rules of Order. Voting is conducted openly, and the results are recorded in the meeting minutes.
 Public Hearings: For matters requiring public hearings, adequate notice must be provided to the community. All testimony, both written and verbal, must be taken into account before any final decision is made.
 Engagement with the public during meetings must be limited to agendized items.

Interest in a topic raised by a member of the public during public comments should be discussed at a later meeting after having the topic agendized appropriately.

6. Public Participation
 Public Input: The Council encourages residents to participate in the decisionmaking process by attending meetings and providing input on agenda items.

Public comment is permitted on both agenda and non-agenda items.  Written Comments: Members of the public may submit written comments to the City Clerk prior to meetings, which will be distributed to the Council and included in the record.
 Decorum: Members of the public are expected to conduct themselves respectfully during meetings. Disruptive behavior, including shouting or personal attacks, may result in removal from the meeting.

7. Conflict of Interest
Council members must adhere to all conflict-of-interest laws and disclose any personal, financial, or other interests that could affect their impartiality in decision-making. Council members must recuse themselves from participating in discussions or votes where a conflict of interest exists.
105
Item 8.

8. Transparency and Ethics
 Transparency: Council members must conduct City business in a manner that is open and transparent to the public. This includes full disclosure of any pertinent information that may affect decision-making.
 Ethical Conduct (Assembly Bill 1234): Council members must follow ethical standards in all interactions, avoiding any appearance of impropriety or undue influence. Acceptance of gifts, favors, or other incentives that could sway official decisions is strictly prohibited as would be any promise for future gifts, favors, or incentives

9. Staff Interactions
The City Council as a body sets the policy and direction through the budget process and official actions taken by the Council. City staff are tasked with implementing that direction. While staff should provide Council members with data and information when requested, individual Council members need to understand their larger role as setting policy and shall not give individual direction to staff on specific matters. Specific direction to staff must come from the majority of the Council.

In order to respect the busy schedules of City staff, Council Members shall schedule meetings in advance (ideally 24 hours’ notice) with Staff (with notification to the City Administrator), should there be a desire to meet with them. To promote transparency, Council members should report out on conversations that take place with Staff during Council Announcements and Reports at City Council meetings.

10. Training
In addition to required training pursuant to Assembly Bill 1234 (ethics) and Assembly Bill 1661 (sexual harassment prevention), additional training is available for newly elected Council Members or seasoned Council members who are looking for refresher training.

11. Consequences for Non-Compliance
Failure to comply with these policies and the Brown Act can result in legal action, personal liability, sanctions, training recommendations or censorship by the Council. In addition, vViolations of decorum or ethical standards can lead to censure or removal from Council committees.

This handbook is intended to be self-enforcing. Appropriate actions as outlined above will be taken if Council members who repeatedly do not follow proper conduct outlined in the Elected Officials Guiding Principles Handbook may be formally censured by the Council or lose committee assignments. Individual Council members should point out to the offending Council member perceived infractions. If the offenses continue, the matter 106
Item 8.
should be referred to the Mayor in private (unless the Mayors actions are being questioned, then the matter should be referred to the Vice Mayor). It would be up to the Mayor (or Vice Mayor) to initiate any actions. If no actions are taken, then the matter can be brought forward to the full Council.

Council members who do not sign an acknowledgement that they have read and understand the Elected Officials Guiding Principles Handbook, shall be ineligible for committee assignments.

12. Amendments and Updates
This handbook will be reviewed and updated periodically to ensure compliance with changes in law and to reflect the evolving needs of the City of Oroville. Amendments must be approved by a majority vote of the City Council.

I affirm that I have read and understand the City of Oroville Elected Official Guiding Principles Handbook.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN & COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: TIM KABER, PROJECT MANAGER

CHRIS TENNS, FIRE CHIEF
RE: PRESENTATION FOR DESIGN RENOVATION OF 2000
CHALLENGER AVENUE FOR PUBLIC SAFETY FACILITY #2
DATE: NOVEMBER 04, 2025

SUMMARY
The City Council shall receive a presentation for the design for potential renovation of 2000 Challenger Avenue into a second Public Safety Facility for the City.

DISCUSSION
Griffith Architects designed the original facility at 2000 Challenger Avenue in 1993 and performed a feasibility study for renovation of said facility in July 2025. The feasibility study confirmed the current facility is in good condition and is an ideal candidate for renovation into a Public Safety Facility.

The City owns the facility at 2000 Challenger Avenue, which is in an ideal location for a fire station to serve the local area. The facility was constructed in 1994 as the Manufacturing Development Center for the Oroville Redevelopment Agency. The design of the facility was accomplished using the 1991 California Building Code (CBC). There have been multiple revisions of the CBC since 2000 Challenger Avenue was first designed and constructed.

A fire station is considered a First Responder Facility, which is to be designed to a higher standard than most facilities.

Staff will present on the specific location of Challenger Avenue, along with the engineers analysis on the work that would need to be completed. Designing the facility to be the City’s future second Public Safety Facility would be Phase One of this transition, followed by formalizing funding (Phase Two) and ultimately construction (Phase Three). It’s estimated this process could take three to four years (depending on funding options). 108
Item 9.

CITY OF OROVILLE

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: BRIAN RING, CITY ADMINISTRATOR
RE: LINCOLN AND MONTGOMERY STREET CITY LIGHT POLE

REPLACEMENT UPDATE
DATE: NOVEMBER 4, 2025

SUMMARY
The City Council shall receive an update on the replacement of City owned light pole located at the corner of Lincoln and Montgomery Street, which was damaged due to a vehicle collision.

DISCUSSION
A traffic collision occurred in which a private driver struck a City-owned light pole, also causing damage to adjacent private property. Following the incident, City staff initiated a claim with the driver’s insurance provider to recover the City’s costs related to the accident response, cleanup, and necessary repairs.

Initially, the insurance company proposed reimbursement to the City in the amount of approximately $6,500. The City’s estimated total costs associated with this incident (accident response, repair and restoration) are approximately $29,000. City staff met with the insurance provider to review the claim details and ensure all relevant information and documentation were considered.

Following this meeting, the insurance company issued a revised determination, authorizing payment of $20,430 to offset the City’s costs. Due to the driver’s policy limit, the City and affected property owners will not be able to recover the full cost of repairs.

Attached is the analysis done by Engineer staff regarding the replacement of the light pole and its foundation.

FISCAL IMPACT
None.

City of Oroville – Public Works
Department
Technical Memorandum
Date: 9/16/2025
To: City Administrator / Risk Management / City Council (as applicable) From: Alyssa Stutz, Public Works Director
Subject: Replacement of Streetlight Foundation and Pole – Vehicle Collision Background
Several weeks ago, a vehicle collided with a privately owned building, 1790 Montgomery St., adjacent to City Hall, also striking a City-owned streetlight. Initial discussions considered whether to reuse the existing streetlight foundation. The measured bolt spacing is nonstandard, and the condition of the foundation—including visible cracking and spalling— suggests potential structural compromise beyond superficial damage. Given these observations, reuse of the existing foundation or anchor bolts is not recommended.

Removal and replacement remain the most prudent course of action.

Technical Findings
• Anchor Bolt Condition: Rusted, bent/yielded anchor bolts should not be reused. Once anchor steel yields, it loses original capacity, may contain micro-fractures, and cannot be restored to specification by bending back into place. The electricians had to attempt to straighten out the rusted bolts just to try to get the nuts off them. Significant torque was required to remove the damaged anchor nuts, necessitating the use of an extended wrench handle (cheater bar).
• Foundation Integrity: There is no reliable non-destructive method to confirm whether the concrete footing itself is cracked (cracking shows in the photo below) or whether bond around the anchor bolts has been compromised. Impact forces of this magnitude raise a strong likelihood of hidden damage.
133
Item 10.
• Standardization: The existing pole design predates current standards. Custom fabrication of a non-standard base plate would create a one-off installation, complicating future replacement and potentially exposing the City to liability.

Alternatives Considered

1. Reuse Existing Foundation with Custom Base Plate
- Pros: Less surface disruption.
- Cons: Requires custom fabrication, does not restore anchor capacity, introduces future maintenance and liability risks.

2. Install New Foundation and Pole (Recommended)
- Pros: Restores structural integrity, uses current standard details, allows standard pole replacement in future, defensible in insurance claim.
- Cons: Higher upfront cost, requires excavation, demolition, and surface restoration.

Recommended Course of Action
The Public Works Department recommends removal of the existing foundation and installation of a new streetlight foundation and pole. The work shall conform or exceed the design of the City’s standard details. The scope will include:

1. Site Preparation and Safety
- Work will be completed after Salmon Festival to avoid any construction conflicts. - An A-frame barricade will be placed over the existing electrical box until permanent work is complete to prevent trip hazards and ensure the isolated circuit remains protected. 134
Item 10.

2. Foundation Removal
- Sawcut and remove decorative surface materials (brick/pavers) for salvage and reinstallation.
- Demolish and remove portion of existing concrete footing, anchor bolts, and base for installation of Christy box.

3. New Foundation Installation
- Excavate to required depth and dimensions.
- Install reinforcing steel cage and new anchor bolt template per standard plan. - Place and finish structural concrete; maintain alignment and elevation of anchor template.
- Cure concrete in accordance with specifications.

4. Pole Installation and Electrical Reconnection
- Install new streetlight pole
- Torque anchors per specification and grout base as required. - Reconnect electrical conduit and wiring; perform insulation resistance/meggar test. - Conduct night-time operational test.

5. Surface Restoration
- Replace decorative brick/pavers or concrete sidewalk to pre-construction condition. - Ensure ADA compliance and uniform surface finish.

6. Documentation
- Photo documentation before, during, and after work.
- Material tickets, invoices, and labor/equipment logs to support insurance claim. - Update City asset records to reflect new installation date and specifications.

Conclusion
Because the existing foundation and anchor bolts were compromised by the collision, reusing the foundation is not recommended. The City should proceed with a complete replacement of the foundation and streetlight pole. This approach ensures public safety, aligns with industry standards, simplifies future maintenance, and is fully supportable for insurance recovery.

CITY OF OROVILLE

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN & COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: CHRIS TENNS, FIRE CHIEF
RE: PROPOSED ORDINANCE UPDATE TO CHAPTER 13.08 WASTE AND

BURNING REGULATIONS
DATE: NOVEMBER 4, 2025

SUMMARY
The City Council shall consider amendments to Chapter 13.08 of the Oroville Municipal Code to address outdated provisions and improve the ordinance’s clarity and enforceability. The proposed updates aim to better align with current practices, public safety priorities, and environmental regulations.

DISCUSSION
The City Council shall consider amendments to Chapter 13.08 of the Oroville Municipal Code to address outdated provisions and improve the ordinance’s clarity and enforceability.

One of the primary updates to the ordinance is the alignment of burn hours with Butte County and other local agencies. This change promotes consistency across jurisdictions and allows the Fire Chief to modify or suspend burning activities based on weather conditions, fire danger, or air quality concerns. Burn permits will be valid for one year from the date of purchase, and the ordinance would clearly state that permits may be revoked or suspended at any time in the interest of public safety.

Additional updates include more detailed safety requirements, such as mandatory supervision during burning, increased maximum pile sizes and clarification of prohibited materials. The ordinance also strengthens enforcement measures by authorizing administrative citations, permit revocation, cost recovery, and misdemeanor penalties for violations.
