Mr. Reinert would like to start a home-based online software business. Mr. Reinert states in his request that the business should not have an impact on local traffic.

ATTACHEMENT
Letter of Request
8 Item 1.

Dear Mayor and Members of the City Council,
I am requesting City Council approval to operate a home-based business at my residence located at 860 Robinson St, Oroville, CA 95965, which is currently subject to an active Housing Hold under the Housing Department Loan Program.

The business I propose to operate is a home-based online software business (under the business name Quomira), which provides a web-based digital service. Business activities will include software development, website maintenance, customer support, marketing, and general business administration.

All work will be performed from within the home.

This business is low-impact and will not negatively affect the neighborhood. Specifically:
• Traffic: No unusual traffic will be generated.
• Parking: No additional on-street parking demand is expected. • Signage: No exterior business signage will be installed. • Deliveries: Deliveries will be limited to normal residential mail/package deliveries. • Employees: No non-resident employees will work at the property. • Customer Visits: No in-person customer visits are expected.

The business will be conducted entirely indoors and will remain compatible with the residential character of the neighborhood.

Thank you for your consideration of this request. Please let me know if any additional information is needed.

Sincerely,
Joshua Reinert

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN & COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: AMY BERGSTRAND, DIRECTOR BUISNESS

ASSISTANCE/HOUSING DEVELOPMENT
RE: HOUSING ELEMENT ANNUAL REPORT
DATE: MARCH 17, 2026

SUMMARY
The City Council shall receive and file the 2025 Housing Element Annual Progress Report.

DISCUSSION
California (“State”) law requires cities to submit a Housing Element Annual Progress Report (“APR”) to the State’s Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”) by April 1 annually. The City of Oroville (“City”) staff and consultants have prepared the 2025 APR to present to City Council, which reports on residential building activity in the calendar year 2025.

Failure to submit an APR within 60 days of the April 1st due date could result in court orders to compel compliance, and court sanctions if not completed as ordered. Failure to submit the APR for two or more consecutive years triggers Senate Bill (“SB”) 35 provisions streamlining affordable multifamily housing development approvals, losing significant local control over the entitlement process.

HCD uses APR data to determine if a locality has not issued enough building permits to satisfy its Regional Housing Needs Allocation (“RHNA”) by income category for a reporting period, subjecting it to SB 35 streamlining provisions until the next reporting period.

California (“State”) law requires cities to submit a Housing Element Annual Progress Report (“APR”) to the State’s Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”) by April 1 annually. The City of Oroville (“City”) staff and consultants have prepared the 2024 APR to present to City Council, which reports on residential building activity in the calendar year 2024.

APR SUMMARY
Housing Development Activity
In the 2025 APR, Tables A and A2 of Attachment 1 summarize housing development activity for the 2025 calendar year (January 1 – December 31) as follows:

 Table A2 Building Permits Issued: The City issued 8 building permits for 67 housing units with 1 of those units being finished in the calendar year 2025.

Progress Meeting RHNA
Table B of Attachment 1 summarizes the City’s progress in meeting its RHNA allocation for the 2022 to 2030 planning cycle. Based on the number of housing units issued from 2022 to 2030, the City has a remaining need of 250 RHNA units as detailed below.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN & COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: AMY BERGSTRAND, DIRECTOR BUISNESS

ASSISTANCE/HOUSING DEVELOPMENT
RE: HOUSING SUCCESSOR AGENCY ANNUAL REPORT
DATE: MARCH 17, 2026

SUMMARY
The City Council shall receive and file the Housing Successor Agency Annual Report for Fiscal Year 2024-2025.

DISCUSSION
The City of Oroville (“City”) is the Housing Successor Agency to the former Oroville Redevelopment Agency (“Housing Successor”). Health and Safety Code (“HSC”) Section 34176.1 (enacted by Senate Bill 341 and related legislation) requires the Housing Successor to prepare an annual report documenting compliance with expenditure proportionality and other requirements pertaining to its Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Asset Fund (“Housing Asset Fund”). The report is due to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”) by April 1st annually. The report also must be presented to City Council and posted on the City’s website.

Housing Successor staff and consultants have prepared a Housing Successor Agency Annual Report for the Fiscal Year (“FY”) ending June 30, 2025. This report is being presented to City Council to receive and file and will be submitted to HCD.

The following sections summarize the Housing Successor’s finances and compliance with various requirements.

HOUSING SUCCESSOR AGENCY ANNUAL REPORT SUMMARY
Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Asset Fund
The Housing Asset Fund includes all the assets that were transferred from the Oroville Redevelopment Agency (“Agency”) to the Housing Successor upon dissolution of the former Agency.

The assets included:
 Real properties,
36 Item 3.
 Personal property
 Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund encumbrances
 Loan/grants receivable, and
 Rents/operations (deferrals).

As of June 30, 2025, the Housing Asset Fund had a cash balance of $2,304,343 and a total portfolio value of $7,310,352. Most of the asset value is from loans receivable that are due to the Housing Successor.

The Housing Successor deposited $429,458 in revenues throughout FY 2024-25, which includes interest income, leases, loan payments, and miscellaneous revenues. For FY 2024-245 the expenditures were primarily administrative costs equating to $157,783 in total funds used.

Property Disposition
Upon the dissolution of redevelopment, the former Agency transferred 19 real properties and associated rental income to the Housing Successor. Since dissolution, 6 additional real properties were taken back by the Housing Successor because the loans defaulted and resulted in foreclosure.

As of FY 2024-25, twenty-two properties have been sold or transferred, with 3 remaining.

Outstanding Inclusionary and Replacement Housing Obligations At the time of its dissolution, the former Agency met its inclusionary and replacement housing requirements. Therefore, the Housing Successor is no longer subject to obligations related to inclusionary housing or replacement housing.

Income & Age Proportionality
If housing successors expend money on projects, State law requires at least 30% to be spent on extremely low-income rental housing in a five-year period, among other restrictions. Additionally, State law also sets a 20% maximum on assisting 60-80% AMI units. State law also sets a limit of 50% on the portion of publicly assisted deed-restricted rental housing that may be restricted to seniors. During FY 2024-25, the Housing Successor had expenditures in the amount of $100,000 for a permanent supportive housing project for extremely low-income households. As a result, this complies with the five-year income proportionality targets requirements.

Excess Surplus
Senate Bill 341 reinstated a requirement to prevent housing successors from accumulating an excess surplus, which is generally defined as unencumbered cash that exceeds the greater of $1 million or the aggregate amount deposited into the Housing Asset Fund in the preceding four years.

For FY 24-25, the Housing Asset Fund had a beginning cash balance of $2,984,237. The sum of deposits in the prior four years is $4,656,859. The amounts reported did not accumulate an excess surplus during FY 2024-2025.

Homeownership Unit Inventory
State law requires the annual report to contain an inventory of any homeownership units assisted by the Housing Successor that require restrictions, covenants, or an adopted program that protects 37 Item 3.

Housing Asset Fund monies. The Housing Successor oversees 124 homeownership units with affordability restrictions.

FISCAL IMPACT
These are informational items with no fiscal impact.

Oroville Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 1

INTRODUCTION
This Housing Successor Agency Annual Report (“Annual Report”) presents information on Fiscal Year (“FY”) 2024-25 expenditures and activities as required by Health and Safety Code (“HSC”) Section 34176.1(f), including but not limited to a housing successor’s compliance with certain expenditure activities over the year as well as a five- and ten-year planning period.

HOUSING SUCCESSOR
The City of Oroville (“City”) is the Housing Successor Agency (“Housing Successor”) to the former Oroville Redevelopment Agency (“Agency”), which was dissolved with all other agencies statewide by the Legislature in 2012. At the time of dissolution, a housing successor was to be selected for the transfer of, and to be responsible for, the remaining assets and liabilities of a former redevelopment agency. The Housing Successor is responsible for maintaining housing assets transferred from the former Agency.

Its main goal is to provide affordable housing for City residents.

SCOPE OF THIS HOUSING SUCCESSOR ANNUAL REPORT
This Annual Report is limited to the City’s activities as it relates to its role as a housing successor. This may include, but is not limited to, financial activities, property disposition, loan administration, monitoring of covenants, and affordable housing development. This Annual Report describes compliance with various annual, five-year, and ten-year housing expenditure and production requirements. FY 2024-25 is the current five-year compliance period for income proportionality, which began July 1, 2024, and ends June 30, 2029.

This Annual Report is due to the State of California (“State”) Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”) by April 1 annually and must be accompanied by an independent financial audit.

The City’s audited financial statements will be posted on the City's website when available. This report is an addendum to the Housing Element Annual Progress Report required by Government Code Section 65400, which is submitted to HCD by April 1 annually.

ASSETS TRANSFERRED TO THE HOUSING SUCCESSOR
Upon the statewide dissolution of redevelopment in 2012, all rights, powers, committed assets, liabilities, duties, and obligations associated with the housing activities of the Agency were transferred to the Housing Successor. The Housing Successor prepared a Housing Asset Transfer (“HAT”) form that 41 Item 3.

Oroville Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 2
provided an inventory of all housing assets transferred from the Agency to the Housing Successor. This included:

1. Real properties;

2. Personal property;

3. Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund (“LMIHF”) encumbrances;

4. Loans/Grants receivables; and

5. Deferrals.

All items on the HAT were approved by the California Department of Finance (“DOF”) on September 5, 2012.

It is important to distinguish that Housing Successor assets that were not transferred from the former Agency or generated by or purchased with assets from the former Agency are not subject to HSC Section 34176.1. A copy of the HAT is provided in Appendix 1.

BACKGROUND
This section summarizes the legal requirements for use of housing successor assets that are addressed in this Annual Report.

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS ABOUT HOUSING SUCCESSORS
In general, housing successors must comply with three major requirements pursuant to HSC Section 34176.1:

1. Expenditures and housing production are subject to income and age targets.

2. Housing successors may not accumulate an “excess surplus,” or a high unencumbered Housing Asset Fund balance based on certain thresholds.

3. Properties must be developed with affordable housing or sold within five to ten years of the DOF approving the HAT.
42 Item 3.

Oroville Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 3
Appendix 2 provides a detailed summary of the reporting requirements that are addressed in this Annual Report.

PERMITTED USES OF HOUSING ASSET FUNDS
Under HSC Section 34176.1, former Agency assets and the revenues generated by those assets, are maintained in a Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Asset Fund (“Housing Asset Fund”). 1 The Housing
Asset fund replaced the former Agency’s Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund. Housing Asset Funds may be spent on:
• Administrative costs for the operation of the housing successor agency. The law allows a housing successor to spend the greater of:
o $200,000 per year adjusted annually for inflation, or o 5% of the statutory value of real property owned by the housing successor and the value of loans and grants receivable from the HAT (“Portfolio”), whichever is greater.

HCD has annually published an adjusted limit amount for administrative costs, reflecting the change in the Consumer Price Index from the prior year. Although HCD has not yet published the update for FY 2024-25, applying the same methodology and index HCD has previously used would yield a limit adjusted for inflation for FY 2024-25 of $270,700. The Housing Successor’s FY 2024-25 Portfolio value was $7,310,352, of which five percent is $365,518. The FY 2024-25 administrative cost limit is the higher figure of $365,518. • Homeless prevention and rapid rehousing services up to $500,000 per year if the former redevelopment agency did not have any outstanding inclusionary housing or replacement housing production requirements as of 2012. The City is eligible for this expense because the former Agency had met its inclusionary housing and replacement housing production requirements upon dissolution.
1 The Housing Asset Fund replaced the former Agency’s Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund. 43 Item 3.

Oroville Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 4
• Affordable housing development assists households up to 80 percent of the Area Median Income (“AMI”), subject to specific income and age targets over a five-year period.

Five-Year Income Proportionality on Development Expenditures: Any Housing Asset Funds may be spent on the development of affordable housing projects affordable to low, very low, and extremely low-income households. “Development” is defined as “new construction”, acquisition and rehabilitation, substantial rehabilitation as defined in HSC Section 33413, the acquisition of long-term affordability covenants on multifamily units as described in HSC Section 33413, or the preservation of an assisted housing development that is eligible for prepayment or termination or for which within the expiration of rental restrictions is scheduled to occur within five years.” Over each five-year compliance period, the current one beginning July 1, 2024, at least 30 percent of such development expenditures must assist extremely low-income households (30% of AMI), while no more than 20 percent may assist low-income households (between 60-80% of AMI).

The balance of the funds may be used on very low-income households (defined as households earning between 30% and 60% of AMI).

The Housing Successor was in compliance during the five-year compliance period, which was from July 1, 2019, to June 30, 2024. The current, five-year compliance period is from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2029.

Note that housing successors must report expenditures by category each year, but compliance with income proportionality limits is measured every five years. For example, a housing successor could spend all its funds in a single year on households earning between 60-80% of AMI, if it was 20 percent or less of the total expenditures during the five-year compliance period.

Should a housing successor not spend at least 30% of its development expenditures on extremely low-income households, or exceeds the amount spent on low-income households, future expenditures are subject to greater restriction until these proportionality targets are met.

Specifically, if a housing successor is unable to spend at least 30% of its development expenditures on extremely low units, it is required to increase this spending to 50% until compliant with the 30% threshold; a housing successor that spends more than 20% of its development expenditures on low-income units cannot spend any further funds on low-income developments until it is at or below the 20% threshold.
44 Item 3.

Oroville Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 5
As such, tracking these expenditures and their progress over the corresponding five-year period is an important function of this Annual Report.

Ten-Year Age Proportionality on Units Assisted: If more than 50% of the total aggregate number of rental units produced by the city, housing successor, or former redevelopment agency during the past 10 years are restricted to seniors, the housing successor may not spend more Housing Asset Funds on senior rental housing.

It is important to stress that Housing Successor expenditure and production requirements are measured on different timeframes:
• One-Year Limits: Administrative Allowance and Homeless Prevention Allowance. Compliance is evaluated annually and resets every year.
• Five-Year Limit: Expenditures by Income Level. Compliance is evaluated over a fixed five-year period set by law, the current period being July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2029. • Ten-Year Limit: Number of Senior Deed-Restricted Units Assisted. Compliance is evaluated based on a rolling ten-year period that is different every year.

Appendix 3 describes Housing Asset Fund expenditure requirements in more detail, including the types of costs eligible in each category.

LIMITS ON THE ACCUMULATION OF HOUSING FUNDS (EXCESS

SURPLUS)
State law limits how much cash a housing successor may retain and, if it fails to commit and spend these dollars in a reasonable timeframe, ultimately penalizes the housing successor by requiring unspent funds to be transferred to HCD for use on State housing programs.

HSC Section 34176.1(d) establishes a limit, known as an “excess surplus” on the amount of unencumbered Housing Asset Funds based on the greater of the following:
• $1,000,000, or
• The total amount of deposits made into the Housing Asset Fund over the preceding four years. 45 Item 3.

Oroville Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 6
Only amounts more than this threshold are considered an excess surplus. Once an excess surplus is determined, a housing successor must account for these funds separately and encumber said monies within three years. If after the third year, the excess surplus has not been fully encumbered, the remaining balance of the excess surplus is to be transferred to HCD within 90 days. HCD is permitted to use these transferred excess surplus funds anywhere in the State under its Multifamily Housing Program or the Joe Serna, Jr. Farmworker Housing Grant Program.

As part of the Annual Report, a housing successor must disclose any excess surplus and describe the housing successor’s plan for eliminating this excess surplus.

Oroville Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 8

REAL PROPERTY AND DISPOSITION STATUS
The Agency originally transferred 19 real properties to the City on the HAT form. Since then, an additional 6 real properties were taken back by the Housing Successor because the loans defaulted and resulted in foreclosure. Table 4 below describes each property and its current development or disposition status.

As of FY 2024-25, twenty-two properties have been sold or transferred. The City will continue to evaluate each of the remaining three properties taking several factors into consideration, including whether it is more beneficial to develop properties to provide housing, or to receive sales proceeds to spend on affordable housing activities within the expenditure limitations set by HSC Section 34176.1. 48 Item 3.

Oroville Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 9

COMPLIANCE WITH EXPENDITURES & PRODUCTION
LIMITS
During FY 2024-25, the Housing Successor was in compliance with all annual and five- to ten-year planning period requirements as described in this section.

PROPORTIONALITY REQUIREMENTS
The Housing Successor fully complied with the Housing Asset Fund spending restrictions during the previous five-year compliance period of January 1, 2019, through June 30, 2024. 49 Item 3.

Oroville Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 10
As summarized in Table 5 below, the Housing Successor has also fully complied with all the Housing Asset Fund spending restrictions for the current reporting period:
• The Housing Successor expended $157,783 on allowable administrative costs and was below the maximum limit amount of $365,518. The annual limit is greater than $200,000 plus inflation or 5% of the Housing Successor Portfolio balance. As shown in Table 3 earlier, the Portfolio balance is $7,310,352, of which 5% is $365,518.
• The Housing Successor made a $100,000 expense to Mission Esperanza for homeless prevention or rapid rehousing in FY 2024-25.
• For FY 2024-25, the Housing Successor had no expenditures for extremely low or low-income housing units.

The Housing Successor will ensure it meets all expenditure requirements going forward, throughout this five-year compliance period of July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2029, and future five-year compliance periods. The Housing Successor understands that failure to comply with the extremely low-income requirement in any five-year compliance period will result in the Housing Successor having to ensure that 50 percent of the remaining funds be spent on extremely low-income rental units until in compliance.

Exceeding the expenditure limit for low households earning between 60-80% AMI in any five-year reporting period will result in the Housing Successor not being able to expend any funds on this income category until in compliance.
50 Item 3.

Oroville Housing Successor Annual Report FY 2024-25 11

SENIOR RENTAL HOUSING LIMIT COMPLIANCE
The Housing Successor has exceeded the limit of producing more than 50 percent of the total rental units for seniors within the last ten years. However, some funds have been encumbered for housing assistance, which is expected to bring the jurisdiction into compliance by the next reporting year. The Housing Successor, along with the City and former Agency, are working towards achieving this goal.

Over the last 10 years, the Successor has assisted 1 deed-restricted project with 2 rental unit in the last ten years both units are restricted to seniors, over 50 percent. Table 6 details units assisted by the project.

EXCESS SURPLUS
The Housing Asset Fund may not accumulate an “excess surplus”, which is an unencumbered amount that exceeds the greater of $1 million or the sum of deposits in the prior four fiscal years. This requirement ensures that housing successors are actively spending available Housing Asset Funds on affordable housing. Table 7 shows that the Housing Successor has not accumulated an excess surplus amount during FY 2024-25. The encumbered amount of $1,061,082 is for an extremely low permanent supportive housing project for the Veterans Housing Development Corporation, HOME Long Term Monitoring for Adams Ashby and includes expenses.

The City will continue monitoring its deposits and fund balance to avoid any future excess surplus. If the Housing Successor has an excess surplus, it must be expended or encumbered within three fiscal years.

If the housing successor fails to comply, it must transfer any excess surplus to HCD within 90 days of the end of the third fiscal year.

ASSISTANCE/HOUSING DEVELOPMENT
RE: AMENDMENT TO PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH

TROVER CONSTRUCTION PROJECT MANAGEMENT LLC TO INCREASE

CONTRACT AMOUNT
DATE: MARCH 17, 2026

SUMMARY
The City Council shall consider amending the Professional Services Agreement with Trover Construction Project Management LLC to increase the contract amount by $25,000.

DISCUSSION
At the February 18, 2025, City Council meeting, staff received approval to extend its professional services agreement with Trover Construction Project Management to continue providing owner-occupied rehabilitation services using newly awarded Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) grant funds through December 31, 2026. At that time, City did not increase the amount of the agreement from the original $50,000 that was awarded in 2022.

City is requesting an increase of $25,000 through the end of the contract to complete Construction Project Management. When the agreement expires in December, all of the PLHA fund should be expended.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: PATRICK PIATT, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
RE: EXTENSION FOR COMPLETION OF THE MURAL PROJECT AT 1447 HUNTOON STREET OF AN ADDITIONAL FOUR MONTHS TO JULY 20, 2026
DATE: MARCH 17, 2026

SUMMARY
The City Council previously approved funding from the Art in Public Spaces Development Impact Fund for the installation of a mural at 1447 Huntoon Street. Due to scheduling and project coordination considerations, the applicant has requested additional time to complete the mural. The City Council shall consider approving a time extension to allow the project to move forward and ensure successful completion.

DISCUSSION
The City Council previously approved a mural project at 1447 Huntoon Street, located within the Downtown Historic Overlay District. The project was approved following review by the Oroville Arts Commission and the Historic Advisory Committee. The mural is intended to celebrate the wildflower blooms that draw visitors to the Oroville region each year and will contribute to the continuing tradition of public art in downtown Oroville.

Since approval of the project, the applicant and artist have encountered scheduling constraints related to project coordination, artist availability, and preparation of the building surface. These factors have delayed the original anticipated timeline for completion.

The applicant has requested an extension of time to allow the mural project to proceed under the previously approved concept and funding allocation. Granting the extension will allow the project to be completed as intended while maintaining the City’s investment in public art and downtown beautification.

Staff does not recommend altering the approved project scope or funding amount. The requested action is limited to providing an additional four-month period for the project with a new completion date of July 20, 2026.
79 Item 5.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no additional fiscal impact associated with the requested extension. Funding in the amount of $14,100 has already been approved from the Art in Public Spaces Development Impact Fund.

APPROVE AN EXTENSION OF TIME FOR THE MURAL PROJECT AT 1447

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

A mural to be painted on the exterior of a building located at 1447 Huntoon Street, honoring the wildflowers that bring tourists to the region annually during the blooming period.

HISTORIC ADVISORY STAFF REPORT Thursday, February 27, 2025 RE: Approval of a mural in the downtown historic overlay zone.

SUMMARY: The Art Commission has approved a public art project at 1447 Huntoon Street, funded by the Public Art Development Impact Fee Fund. Because the project is located in the Downtown Historic Overlay District, it must first gain approval from the Historic Advisory Committee before being presented to City Council for funding.

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the following actions:

1. Approve a mural to be painted at 1447 Huntoon Street.

APPLICANTS: Erin Lackey
LOCATION:
1447 Huntoon Street
Oroville, CA 95965

2 DISCUSSION:

Erin Lackey, owner of the building at 1447 Huntoon Street, has requested funding from the Art Commission for a mural (see Attachment 1) to be painted on the front of her building. The mural will honor the wildflowers that attract thousands of tourists to the region each year, and the proposed artist is Jadrek Speer, who has previously painted murals in downtown Oroville.

Downtown Oroville has a well-established tradition of murals that celebrate the city’s history. The requested mural is intended to continue that tradition by depicting an event that continues to draw visitors to the area.

The standard process for approval of public art funded through the Public Art Development Impact Fees Fund involves presenting a request to City Council after the Art Commission has approved the project. If the artwork is located within the Downtown Historic Overlay District, it must also be presented to the Historic Advisory Committee.

Environmental Determination: The Class 01 “Existing Facilities” Categorical Exemption (15301) exempts development utilizing existing construction from CEQA review provided that the development involves negligible or no expansion of the existing structure.

FISCAL IMPACT
$14,100 to be paid from the Art in Public Spaces Development Impact Fund.

CITY OF OROVILLE

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN & COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: TIM KABER, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS
RE: NORTHSTAR CONTRACT FOR DOWNTOWN STORM DRAIN

FEASIBILITY STUDY
DATE: MARCH 17, 2026

SUMMARY
The City Council shall consider directing staff to issue an agreement to NorthStar Engineering for $15,820 for a feasibility study for the downtown storm drain system bounded by Montgomery, Huntoon, Downer, and the levee. This study will specifically investigate options to alleviate flooding at the storm drain under the alley behind 2040 Montgomery Street.

DISCUSSION
The existing storm drain system north of 2040 Montgomery, and south of the Convention Center, consistently floods during high rain events. This flooding poses a significant flooding threat to area businesses and streets. Public Works crews are required to pump storm water from this area several hundred feet to parking lot A in order to allow the water to drain. There is a suspected complete blockage of the storm drainpipe under parking lot A, which has been in place for well over a decade.

Staff requested a proposal from NorthStar Engineering in November of 2025. This would be a stand-alone, sole source contract. NorthStar is uniquely positioned to execute this work due to storm drain design projects in the adjacent area.

FISCAL IMPACT
$15,820 will be allocated from the Storm Drain fund.

Item 7.

Item 7.
general liability insurance form or other form with a general aggregate limit is used, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice the required occurrence limit.

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. If CONTRACTOR or CONTRACTOR’s employees will use personal autos in any way on this project, CONTRACTOR shall obtain evidence of personal auto liability coverage for each such person.

8.1.4. Professional Liability Coverage. The CONTRACTOR shall maintain professional errors and omissions liability insurance for protection against claims alleging negligent acts, errors, or omissions which may arise from the CONTRACTOR’s operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by the CONTRACTOR or by its employees, subcontractors, or subconsultants. The amount of this insurance shall not be less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a combined single-limit-per-occurrence basis.

8.2. Endorsements. Each general liability and automobile liability insurance policy shall be issued by insurers possessing a Best’s rating of no less than A-:VII. Each general liability insurance policy shall be endorsed with the specific language of Section 8.2.1 below.

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.”

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 117
Item 7.
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 against CONTRACTOR for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by CITY due to the breach.

8.4. Certificates of Insurance. The CONTRACTOR shall provide certificates of insurance with original endorsements to the CITY as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein.

Certificates of such insurance shall be filed with the CITY on or before commencement of performance of this Agreement.

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.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
Project Understanding
The existing storm drain system in the Montgomery/Hudson area appears to have a damaged or nonfunctional segment of storm drain line. The City of Oroville seeks to evaluate feasible options for restoring or improving drainage conveyance to the downstream system by either reconstructing the existing system or by redesigning the obstructed portion of the system. This study will identify three (3) technically viable alternatives, provide preliminary exhibits, and develop comparative cost estimates to inform future design decisions.

Consultant agrees to perform the following services:

Task 1: Project Management
NorthStar will provide the following:
• Initial project research, project preparation and in-house coordination. • General Client correspondence, conference calls and administration support for a two-month duration assuming 1 hour per month.
• If the project goes longer than two months, additional project management time may be needed.

If it is needed it will be charged at the actual time needed based on the attached rate sheet followed up by an Additional Work Authorization.

Task 2: Alternative Analysis
• NorthStar will investigate three (3) different solutions for repairing/restoring the storm drain system.

1. Open Trench Replacement - Reconstruct the existing storm drain using traditional opencut methods. Evaluate feasibility given existing utilities and surface improvements.

2. Trenchless Repair Options - Assess methods such as Cured-In-Place Pipe (CIPP), pipe bursting, or slip lining. Discuss constructability, hydraulic impact, and lifespan.

3. Drainage Reroute with Lift Station Connection - Investigate redirecting stormwater to a new lift station to bypass problematic segments. Assess pumping needs, layout, and approximate system configuration.
• NorthStar will utilize an aerial imagery and previously obtained aerial topographic data and prepare a schematic level layout exhibit for each alternative Task 3: Construction Estimate

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: PAT PIATT, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
RE: DOWNTOWN ZONING REVIEW DISCUSSION
DATE: MARCH 17, 2026

SUMMARY
At the request of Council Member Webber and Mayor Pittman, the City Council will discuss zoning in the downtown district and the relationship between current zoning designations and existing businesses that may now be considered legal nonconforming uses. In some cases, zoning changes adopted after businesses were legally established may have resulted in those businesses becoming legal nonconforming under the current zoning code.

The purpose of this discussion is to consider whether further review of downtown zoning may be appropriate and to receive direction from the City Council regarding potential next steps.

DISCUSSION
Zoning regulations and zoning maps are periodically updated to reflect evolving community priorities, land use patterns, and long-term planning objectives. When these changes occur, some businesses that were originally established as permitted uses may become classified as legal non-conforming uses under current zoning regulations.

Legal non-conforming uses are generally allowed to continue operating but may be subject to limitations if the use ceases for a defined period of time.

Questions have been raised regarding how the Mixed-Use Downtown (MXD) zoning designation applies to certain properties that were previously zoned for commercial uses. In some cases, buildings that historically supported commercial activities may now operate under legal non-conforming status if those uses are not permitted under the current zoning designation.

Under the current zoning code, a legal non-conforming use may lose its status if the use is discontinued for more than two years. This provision is intended to encourage 127
Item 8.
active occupancy of buildings and ensure that land uses gradually transition toward current planning objectives.

The Council discussion may include whether the existing provisions appropriately balance the City’s goals of supporting downtown economic activity, maintaining flexibility for property owners, and implementing long-term land use policies for the downtown area.

If the City Council determines that further evaluation is warranted, staff could conduct additional analysis of zoning conditions in the downtown district and report back with potential policy options. Alternatively, the Council may determine that any changes to zoning provisions would be more appropriately considered as part of a broader policy review during the next General Plan Amendment process anticipated in 2027 or 2028.

Conducting this review during the General Plan update would allow the issue to be evaluated in the context of broader land use policy while also avoiding duplication of staff effort and potential consultant costs.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this discussion item. Any work resulting from Council direction would primarily involve staff time. If the Council desires an accelerated or more comprehensive review, the City may consider retaining a planning consultant, which would require additional funding authorization.

ACTION REQUESTED -

1. Direct staff to conduct an initial review of zoning conditions in the downtown district and return to the City Council with additional analysis; or

2. Defer any amendments to the zoning code at this time and evaluate the issue through the next General Plan Amendment process anticipated in 2027 or 2028, when it can be considered as part of a broader review of land use policy and planning consistency.

RE: HEWITT PARK - GEORGIA-PACIFIC TRAIN PAINTING PROJECT UPDATE
DATE: MARCH 17, 2026

SUMMARY
The City Council shall receive an update regarding potential memorandum of understanding for the painting of the trains at Hewitt Park.

DISCUSSION
At the March 3, 2026 Council meeting, staff were given direction to form a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with a local non-profit, that included the details associated with the painting of the two trains located at Hewitt Park (including all safety protections associated with painting).

Since that meeting, staff have done some preliminary research on this idea, and have come up with the following recommendations for consideration:
 If an MOU was reached with a local non-profit to have volunteers paint the train, staff would recommend that the City retain professionals to mitigate any existing risks that exists in / around the train.
 Alternatively, staff could work on a MOU with a local non-profit to retain individuals who are qualified / trained / certified and insured in working in these types of conditions; to assess what if any mitigation efforts are needed; and perform any painting that can be appropriately done.
 Another alternative would be for the City to retain individuals who were qualified / trained / certified and insured in working in these types of conditions; to assess what if any mitigation efforts are needed; and perform any painting that can be appropriately done.

FISCAL IMPACT

RE: FINANCIAL ANALYSIS FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE
30,2025
DATE: MARCH 17, 2026

SUMMARY
The City Council shall receive annual unaudited financial information for the year ended June 30, 2025.

DISCUSSION
The City ended the fiscal year June 30, 2025 with a deficit of $555,353. This was a result of intentionally budgeting more expenditures than revenues, utilizing surplus funds that had accumulated, for necessary projects.

Both the General Fund and District Tax Funds are considered General Fund however are accounted for separately for accountability and transparency. The two funds are then combined for financial statement purposes.

This year staff are including the Pension Stabilization Fund, per new accounting standards. These three Funds collectively are combined for financial reporting purposes.

Summary:

The General Fund ended with a $69,737 deficit with no significant one-time activity this year. For the District Tax Fund, as in prior years expenditures were budgeted more than the revenues because there has been a surplus accumulating in that fund and the goal 131
Item 10.
is to budget all of the accumulated fund balance to address necessary City needs. The District Tax Fund ended with a deficit of $796,614. The Pension Stabilization Fund accumulated some interest and incurred some fiscal agent fees this year for a surplus of $310,998.

OUTSTANDING DEBT
Outstanding Debt on June 30, 2025, was a $16,200,000 pension obligation for the City and $8,635,000 outstanding bonds for the Oroville Successor Agency. Pension Obligation Bonds were issued to pay off the CalPERS Unfunded liability.

Wells Fargo Penson Obligation Bonds 2 $16,200,000 Maturity Date 6/01/40 US Bank – Successor Agency Bonds $ 8,635,000 Maturity Date 9/01/31

Currently our General Fund reserve is $9,000,000. There are no plans to increase it at this time. Our Fund Balance Policy is to target at least 15% of General Fund expenditures. The GFOA (Government Finance Officer Assn) recommends at least 17%.

This year the City’s reserve is 29.8%. (Up 2.8% from the prior year).

FISCAL IMPACT
A year-end deficit for the year ended June 30, 2025, of $555,353 for the City’s General Funds.
