The Planning Commission is charged with various functions and duties throughout the Oxnard City Code and the California Government Code, including preparing, reviewing and revising the City's General Plan; implementing that General Plan through various specific plans, zoning and subdivision ordinances; promoting the coordination of local plans and programs with the plans and programs of other public agencies; annually reviewing the City's capital improvement program for consistency with that General Plan; ensuring conformity with the General Plan for any real property acquired for public purposes or for any public building or structure constructed or authorized; and ensuring conformity with the General Plan for any real property disposed of or for any street vacated or abandoned. The Planning Commission is composed of seven members, all of whom must reside in the City and be over the age of 18. For this purpose, Councilman Starr nominates Henry Barcena to represent D3, who has passed the City’s formal background check procedures.

Staff will return on a rolling basis with additional Council nominations to fill the remaining vacancies in the City’s commissions, committees and boards.

AGENDA ITEM NO. K.3

DATE: July 15, 2025

TO: City Council

FROM: Jeff Pengilley, Community Development Director, (805) 385-8208, [email protected]

SUBJECT: Planning Commission Stipend Ordinance.

RECOMMENDATION

That the Oxnard City Council:

Adopt Ordinance 3064 titled “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF OXNARD, CALIFORNIA AMENDING CHAPTER 2 ARTICLE II DIVISION 7 SECTIONS 2-96 AND 2-97 OF THE OXNARD CITY CODE ESTABLISHING A STIPEND FOR SERVICE ON THE OXNARD PLANNING COMMISSION”

(The Finance & Governance Committee approved 2-1 on March 11, 2025.)

BACKGROUND

Ordinance No. 3064 was introduced by the City Council on June 26, 2025. The City Council approved the first reading of the ordinance by a vote of 6-1 (with Councilman Starr voting 'no'). If adopted by City Council on July 15, 2025, the ordinance will take effect thirty days thereafter.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES

This agenda item supports the Organizational Effectiveness strategy. The purpose of the Organizational Effectiveness strategy is to reinforce, stabilize, improve, and strengthen the organizational foundation of the City in order to build a modern, high-functioning City government that effectively and efficiently supports the operating departments in providing high-quality services and programs for our residents and businesses.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

Based on the recommendations, the maximum cost would be approximately $25,200 per year, assuming a stipend of $150 per Commissioner per meeting and a total of 24 meetings per year with all commissioners in attendance. However, based on the data from the last two years, there were a total of 16 meetings held in 2023 and 14 meetings held in 2024. Over that time period, there was an approximately 80 percent attendance rate. Based on these two data points, with seven Commissioners, the stipend would have been approximately $13,440 and $11,760, respectively, with attendance required.

The amounts above are for illustrative purposes only, as the exact cost could vary based on the number of meetings held.

While application fees are collected for projects that are presented to the Planning Commission to pay for staffing and noticing costs, fees do not include costs associated with Planning Commission Stipends. On June 26, 2025, the City Council approved a Fiscal Year 2025-26 General Fund (101) appropriation in the amount of $26,250 to fund the Planning Commission Stipends.

38 For Finance Use Only:

COMMITTEE OUTCOME

The Finance and Governance Committee recommended 2-1 on March 11, 2025 to establish a $150 per meeting stipend, for meetings attended. The Council Committee did not discuss reimbursements in detail, and did not include reimbursements in their motion.

40 The Oxnard Planning Commission (Commission) consists of seven members who serve at the pleasure of the City Council and may be removed and replaced at Council’s discretion. The qualifications for Planning Commissioners are that they must reside in the city and be at least 18 years of age. Commissioners are nominated by Council members to four-year terms, unless a vacancy occurs during the term of a commissioner. A member of the commission may serve up to two consecutive terms. Pursuant to the Oxnard City Code (OCC), the members of the Commission do not receive compensation for their time preparing for or attending Commission meetings, which is consistent with the other City of Oxnard Citizen Advisory Groups (CAGs). As with other CAGs within the City, the OCC outlines that the City Council shall provide the funds and equipment necessary for the work of the Commission. Any changes to the compensation of the Commission would be at the discretion of the City Council. At the request of the Commission, on August 15, 2024, City staff placed on the Commission Agenda a study session/report discussing the proposal of stipends for members of the Commission. At the meeting, Ronald Arruejo, Chair of the Commission (Chair), prepared and submitted a memo highlighting the role of the Commission, a rate comparison looking at Oxnard compared to other cities and the benefits of providing a stipend to the Commission (Attachment 1). The Chair prepared a resolution in support of providing a stipend to the Commission for approval by the full Commission. After a presentation by the Chair, the Commission discussed the proposal, noting generally that they were appreciative of the discussion and that while there was no compensation, it was an honor to serve on the Commission. Following the deliberation, the Commission voted 5-0, with one absence and one abstention, to approve the resolution as prepared by the Chair. As noted above, the approval of compensation for the Commission is at the discretion of the City Council. The approved Planning Commission resolution only had the effect of allowing the Chair and up to two other Commission Members to present the resolution to the City Council during the City Council public comment period. The Chair then presented the resolution to the City Council and, while the resolution could not be discussed in detail at the meeting, the Council directed staff to bring the item to committee for further discussion. The topic was brought to the Finance and Governance Committee (Committee) meeting on March 11, 2025. Please see the “Committee Outcome” section of this report for additional details. Based on a 2-1 vote at the Committee, the draft ordinance and resolution would provide a per-meeting stipend of $150 to each Commissioner. ANALYSIS Summary The Commission is one of seven CAGs established by the OCC within the City, however, their roles and responsibilities are defined in State Law. While there is a potential for up to 24 meetings each year, one or two meetings are often removed from the calendar due to conflicts with holidays. Meetings are held on an as-needed basis, with an average of 15 meetings per year, with each meeting averaging approximately one hour and 30 minutes. The Chair conducted a survey of other neighboring agencies in Kern, Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, and Ventura Counties, which was verified by City Staff. As shown in the table (Attachment 4), the majority of agencies surveyed (29 of 38 (not including Oxnard)) provided some sort of stipend. The agencies that provide a stipend generally provide a stipend on a per-meeting basis and the majority of those require attendance to receive the stipend. The per-meeting stipend ranged from $10 to $350. As an alternative, a few agencies provide a flat monthly stipend which ranged from $50 to $543. In the Memo the Commission Chair provided to the Planning Commission, and during the Committee meeting, the Chair stated that Oxnard was one of only two cities in the County that did not provide a stipend. However, staff would like to clarify that applies only for those cities in the County the Chair received responses from. In his Memo to the Commission there is the following footnote: “The City of Port Hueneme does not have a separately appointed planning commission, it is unknown if and how much the compensation for the City of San Buenaventura is, and the Cities of Ojai and Fillmore have not yet responded to inquiries regarding compensation for members of their Planning Commission.” At the Committee meeting, the Commission Chair provided a slide that indicated Ojai does not pay their Commission. In addition, Ventura is not listed in the presentation, but the list of agencies subsequently verified by City Staff, provided in 41 Attachment 4, shows that the commissioners are not paid in Ventura. The Chair also presented a slide to indicate that a $150 per meeting stipend the Planning Commission recommended to the Council was below the per capita amount, but there was no actual discussion or additional data provided on the rationale to use a per capita data point. The slide presented by the Chair, pasted below, notes that currently seven (7) of the thirty-eight (38) cities surveyed pay $150 or more per meeting. “PCs in Ventura, Kern, Santa Barbara, & Los Angeles Counties: Stipend Amounts per Meeting” The slide noted that the per-meeting amounts were calculated at 50% of the per-month rate for the cities that paid a monthly stipend, such as Simi Valley and Thousand Oaks. See the “Committee Outcome” section for additional details. Role of the Commission The Commission’s role is to make sound land use decisions supporting the mission statement. The mission of Oxnard’s Planning Division is to create, preserve and enhance the quality of the City’s natural and built environments through implementation of the General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, Adopted Specific Plans, Local Coastal Plan, and the Coastal Zoning Ordinance. More specifically, pursuant to Section 2-95 of the OCC, the Commission has three core functions:

1. The functions and duties assigned to the commission by the code and other ordinances and resolutions of the city council; 2. The functions set out in Cal. Gov't Code, Sections 65103, 65400, 65401 and 65402; and 3. The duties imposed on a commission by Cal. Health and Safety Code, Section 33000.

Under State Law, the primary applicable code section is Government Code Section 65103, which outlines that each planning agency (Commission) shall perform all the following functions:
a. Prepare, periodically review, and revise, as necessary, the general plan. b. Implement the general plan through actions including, but not limited to, the administration of specific plans and zoning and subdivision ordinances. c. Annually review the capital improvement program of the city or county and the local public works projects of other local agencies for their consistency with the general plan, pursuant to Article 7 (commencing with Section 65400). d. Endeavor to promote public interest in, comment on, and understanding of the general plan and regulations relating to it. e. Consult and advise with public officials and agencies, public utility companies, civic, educational, professional, and other organizations, and citizens generally concerning the implementation of the general plan. f. Promote the coordination of local plans and programs with the plans and programs of other public agencies. g. Perform other functions as the legislative body provides, including conducting studies and preparing plans other than those required or authorized by this title. 42 In the City, the Commission is the decision maker on Special Use Permits, Variances, Administrative Relief from Parking Provisions, Parcel Map Waivers, and Coastal Development Permits. The Commission is the appeals body for Development Design Review Permits, Downtown Design Review Permits, Minor Modifications, Temporary Use Permits, Coastal Exemptions, Emergency Permits, Categorical Exclusions, Development Review Permits, Administrative Modifications, and Final Restoration Plans. Lastly, the Commission is responsible for making recommendations to the City Council on Zoning Code/Subdivision Ordinance Text Amendments, Zone Changes, Tentative Subdivision Maps, Development Agreements, Specific Plans, General Plan Amendments, and Annexations. In addition to the items above, pursuant to Government Code Section 65402, a Finding of General Plan Conformity must be made by the Commission for any acquisition, disposition, vacation, or abandonment of any real City property by the City. Specifically, the Commission is to determine whether the location, purpose, and extent of such proposed real property transaction conforms with the 2030 General Plan. This section also applies to acquisitions and depositions by the County or other local agencies within City jurisdiction. Time Commitment The Commission currently holds their meetings on the first and third Thursday of each month at 6:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers, however, while rare, special meetings can be convened as needed. While there is a potential for up to 24 meetings each year, one or two meetings are often removed from the calendar due to conflicts with holidays. Meetings are held on an as-needed basis, so meetings are canceled when there are no items that are ready for the Commission’s review or if the Commission fails to achieve a quorum (4 members). Based on data from 2023 and 2024: ● There were a total of 16 meetings held in 2023 and 14 meetings held in 2024. ● Over that time period, there was an approximately 80 percent attendance rate. ● The average meeting lasted 1 hr and 20 minutes and 1 hr and 41 minutes, respectively. However, it is important to note that, due to the variation in the items that come before the Commission, the time of meetings varies from approximately 30 minutes to 6 hours. ● The same variation can be found in the length of the Commission Packets as well, which can range from around 125 pages to over 3,000 pages when including environmental documents, such as the recent Teal Club project and Lockwood 3 projects. Potential Benefits of Commission Stipends As noted above, the Commission serves important functions prescribed by the State. These functions are critical for the growth of a city, as sound decision-making is important for the development of a city, particularly, as planning and, more specifically, housing planning has become a focus of state regulations. While staff are not making a recommendation in favor or against the provision of stipends, the Chair laid out the following potential benefits: 1. Encourage qualified people to become members of the Planning Commission. 2. Increase retention of members, which helps with institutional and historical knowledge of projects. Although not stated in the Chair’s memo to the Planning Commission, if the stipend requires attendance at meetings, then the stipend would also encourage attendance of those appointed to the Commission. Although it rarely occurs, lack of attendance by Commissioners can delay decisions on development projects, impacting developer timelines. Also, commissioner turnover requires additional training and funding (approximately $2,000 per commissioner) and additional staff time to bring the new commissioners up to speed. Returning Commissioners can also bring much-needed experience and continuity, which is beneficial for new members and developers. Survey of Other Agencies The Chair conducted a survey of other neighboring agencies in Kern, Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, and Ventura Counties, which was verified by City staff. As shown in the table (Attachment 3), the majority of agencies surveyed (29 of 38 (not including Oxnard)) in the region provide some sort of stipend. There was less information and consistency on data related to reimbursements, but the Planning Commission resolution included “reimbursement of actual and necessary expenses incurred for City-related business”. Of those cities surveyed, only three (3) are confirmed to provide mileage reimbursement. The agencies that provide a stipend generally provide a stipend on a per-meeting basis and the majority of those require attendance to receive the stipend. The per-meeting stipend generally ranged from $10 to $350. In some cases, cities that provide a per-meeting stipend also had a max stipend per month (i.e. Santa Maria). As an alternative, a few agencies 43 provide a flat monthly stipend which ranged from $50 to $543, some of which required commissioner attendance and some did not. The Chair’s memo (and the Resolution) presented to the Planning Commission stated in Section 3 that Oxnard is the only planning commission body which does not receive compensation in Ventura County. “WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Oxnard is the only municipal or county planning commission in the County of Ventura which has a body separate from the elected members of the municipality or county which does not receive compensation.” Staff would like to clarify that the Chair’s research included 7 of the 10 cities in the County and the County, and with the exception of Port Hueneme, specific data was not provided on when a body was separate from the elected members. Based on the Chair’s research, the City of Port Hueneme does not have a separately appointed planning commission. It was unknown if and how much the compensation for the City of Ventura is, and the cities of Ojai and Fillmore did not respond to his inquiries when the Resolution and memo were presented to the Planning Commission. STRATEGIC PRIORITIES This agenda item supports the Organizational Effectiveness strategy. The purpose of the Organizational Effectiveness strategy is to reinforce, stabilize, improve, and strengthen the organizational foundation of the City in order to build a modern, high-functioning City government that effectively and efficiently supports the operating departments in providing high-quality services and programs for our residents and businesses. FINANCIAL IMPACT If a $150 per meeting stipend for the Commission is ultimately approved by City Council, the funding for the Commissioner stipend would come from the General Fund. Based on the recommendations, the maximum cost would be approximately $25,200 per year, assuming a stipend of $150 per Commissioner per meeting and a total of 24 meetings per year with all commissioners in attendance. However, based on the data from the last two years, there were a total of 16 meetings held in 2023 and 14 meetings held in 2024. Over that time period, there was an approximately 80 percent attendance rate. Based on these two data points, with seven Commissioners, the stipend would have been approximately $13,440 and $11,760, respectively, with attendance required. The amounts above are for illustrative purposes only, as the exact cost could vary based on the number of meetings held. While application fees are collected for projects that are presented to the Planning Commission to pay for staffing and noticing costs, fees do not include costs associated with Planning Commission Stipends. Therefore, a budget appropriation of $26,250 is needed for the Planning Commission Stipends. For Finance Use Only: General Fund (Org. 1011101 Obj. 52350) COMMITTEE OUTCOME The Finance and Governance Committee recommended 2-1 on March 11, 2025 to establish a $150 per meeting stipend, for meetings attended. The Council Committee did not discuss reimbursements in detail, and did not include reimbursements in their motion. At the Committee meeting Planning Commission Chair presented a powerpoint in which he outlined many of the elements of the Planning Commission’s resolution to establish a stipend (attachment 3). Committee deliberations ensued and Chair Mc Arthur stated his position that he supports $150 per meeting stipend, primarily as a tool to recruit young people that may be sacrificing potential earnings, and giving long hours to prepare and 44 participate in the meeting. Chair Mc Arthur also stated that he believes $150 is on the low end and a starting point. Chair Rodriguez, supported $150 per meeting stipend, also drawing on the amount of time spent for this role. Committee Member Starr (Starr) did not support pay for volunteer positions, and expressed that the “pay” the volunteer receives is that the members get a bigger say over what happens in the city. Starr also responded to a point raised by the Planning Commission Chair that the stipend would help retain members. Starr pointed out that historically members of the Commission did serve multiple terms and offered that the reason we may have less retention with the Commission may be term limits or lack of advertisement for the role, not necessarily compensation. Lastly, Starr raised the concern of the precedent this would set for other CAGs to seek compensation. Prepared by: Joe Pearson II, AICP, Planning & Environmental Services Manager ATTACHMENTS 1.

48 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

INFORMATION/CONSENT AGENDA
AGENDA ITEM NO. K.4

DATE: July 15, 2025

TO: City Council

FROM: Jeff Pengilley, Community Development Director, (805) 385-8208, [email protected]

SUBJECT: Private Parking Ordinance.

RECOMMENDATION

That the City Council:

Adopt Ordinance No. 3063 titled “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF OXNARD ADDING DIVISION 3 TO ARTICLE IV OF CHAPTER 8 OF THE OXNARD CITY CODE REGARDING PRIVATE PARKING; FILED BY CITY OF OXNARD, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT, 214 SOUTH C STREET, OXNARD, CA, 93030.”

(The Community Services, Public Safety, Housing & Development Committee approved 3-0 on May 13, 2025.)

BACKGROUND

Ordinance No. 3063 was introduced to the City Council at its June 26, 2025, meeting. Following a public hearing, the Council voted to introduce the ordinance, with a vote of 7-0 for first reading by title only, waiving further reading. If adopted by Council on July 15, 2025, the ordinance will take effect in thirty days thereafter.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES

This agenda item supports Economic Development strategy. The purpose of the Economic Development strategy is to focus on the retention and expansion of Oxnard businesses by increasing the skills and employability of our local workforce, invite new business investments, and target site-based redevelopment opportunities.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

There are no financial impacts associated with this agenda item. The City would collect funds from the applicants utilizing Council-approved hourly fee rates to cover the cost of reviewing the registration. The City would not collect any private parking ticket charges.

COMMITTEE OUTCOME

At the Community Services, Public Safety, Housing & Development Committee, the committee asked questions of staff regarding application and registration fees, towing procedures, and signage requirements. The discussion around towing procedures for unauthorized parked vehicles was clarified that the CVC regarding removal of vehicles from private property can already be utilized without the adoption of this ordinance. To further elaborate, the CVC currently allows private property owners and the businesses to tow unauthorized parked vehicles so long as they have proper signage in place indicating towing is enforced on the property. This vehicle code section remains effective as an option for property owners, in addition to issuing parking tickets with the approval of the proposed ordinance. However, to ensure compliance with private property towing, CVC Section 22658 has been added to the Private Parking Ordinance Section 49 8-61.1.

To conclude the meeting, Chair Mayor Mc Arthur recommended that prior to implementation of issuance of parking tickets, that property owners communicate to business owners, employees, visitors, and customers as a courtesy warning that enforcement of parking will occur by a selected date. Staff has incorporated in the application and registration requirements that notices be provided to the business owners and employees and signage placed onsite seven (7) days prior to issuing tickets in Section 8-61.5.

The Community Services, Public Safety, Housing & Development Committee approved 3-0 on May 13, 2025, to approve the staff recommendation and to forward the item for Council approval.

DATE: June 26, 2025 TO: City Council FROM: Jeff Pengilley, Community Development Director, (805) 385-8208, [email protected] SUBJECT: Private Parking Ordinance (20 minutes) RECOMMENDATION That the City Council: Approve the first reading by title only and waive further reading of the proposed Ordinance titled “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF OXNARD ADDING DIVISION 3 TO ARTICLE IV OF CHAPTER 8 OF THE OXNARD CITY CODE REGARDING PRIVATE PARKING; FILED BY CITY OF OXNARD, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT, 214 SOUTH C STREET, OXNARD, CA, 93030.” (Community Services, Public Safety, Housing & Development Committee approved 3-0 on May 13, 2025.) Please click on the following link to view the required Measure M pre-recorded presentation video: BACKGROUND The Community Development Department has prepared an ordinance to facilitate off-street parking enforcement on private properties. Private property owners have historically been limited in their ability to enforce parking regulations with towing as their only current recourse. In 2015, Assembly Bill (AB) 451 was signed into law amending California Vehicle Code (CVC) Section 21107.8 to introduce specific requirements that allow cities or counties to authorize regulations by resolution or ordinance for unauthorized parking in privately owned off-street parking facilities that are generally open to the public. AB 451 recognized this issue for cities and counties that have high parking demands and usage and amended the CVC to allow for the enforcement of parking violations on private property through the issuance of parking tickets. City Code addresses towing on public streets, alleys, and parking lots, as well as towing of abandoned vehicles. Towing on private property is addressed in the CVC. AB 451 did not alter the ability of private parking operators to tow vehicles under existing regulations (CVC Section 22658). See additional discussion in the "Committee Outcome” section of this report. DISCUSSION 51 Approval of this ordinance will allow specific types of private parking operators/owners to issue notices of a parking charge (i.e. parking tickets), similar to on-street public parking violations, within their off-street private parking facilities. The introduction of the attached Private Parking Ordinance would aid property owners in addressing unauthorized parking on private property to encourage turnover of parking spaces in high-demand areas. This proposed ordinance would allow private property owners/operators of commercial retail district and shopping center parking facilities with greater than 200 parking spaces to enforce their private parking management strategies by issuing parking tickets, subject to obtaining a city registration and business tax certificate. As proposed, each property owner seeking to enforce private off-street parking must submit an application for a registration by the city to ensure compliance with the requirements of the ordinance; however, the city will not be involved in the enforcement process. ANALYSIS AB 451 enables the City, through this proposed ordinance, to grant private property owners/operators the ability to manage their private parking facilities under specific conditions and criteria. Operators of private parking facilities in commercial retail districts and shopping centers play a pivotal role in facilitating the usage of parking spaces to enhance the customer experience and maximize business for their tenants. Parking facility operations are established by the owner/operator of each parking facility and are designed to address the unique parking needs of their parking lots to ensure efficient turnover, particularly in high-demand areas. These operational efforts can include establishing maximum parking hours, providing for metered parking, providing security to monitor parking lots, and enforcement of towing of vehicles. The ability of parking facility operators to enforce the operational parking management strategies by charging for parking violations will be enabled by this ordinance. This ordinance would encourage parking turnover to increase parking availability for greater economic activity within the commercial retail and shopping districts in the City of Oxnard. Parking Requirements Under this proposed ordinance, the number of Oxnard City Code required off-street parking spaces and the layout of the parking facilities would not change. Proposed Private Parking Ordinance The proposed Private Parking Ordinance will provide the structure and tools for larger private commercial parking facilities in major shopping centers, citywide, to address unauthorized vehicles on private property by allowing private property owners to issue parking tickets when a vehicle is parked beyond the specified regulation. Locations that could potentially benefit from this ordinance include: The Collection, Shopping at the Rose, The Esplanade Shopping Center, The Centerpoint Mall, and Seabridge Marketplace. The proposed ordinance would align with State Law (AB 451), while adding other requirements specific to the City of Oxnard. Registration and Plan In order for private property owners and parking management operators to start issuing parking tickets, known as Notice of a Parking Charge in the proposed ordinance, they would be required to register with the City of Oxnard Community Development Department. The registration consists of an application to the Community Development Department with the following items: 1. The selected private parking operator with contact information, 2. The dispute resolution process established by the private parking operator, and 3. A parking and signage installation plan. When all items are provided and correctly completed, a registration and a city business tax certificate are issued, which would then allow the private parking owner/operator to begin issuing parking tickets for parking violations. Based on feedback from the Committee, staff incorporated in the application and registration requirements that notices be provided to the business owners and employees and signage placed onsite seven (7) days prior to issuing tickets. The registration is a one-time application unless there is a change in one of the above items that would require updating the registration. 52 The requirements of the parking and signage installation plan include a site plan of the parking facility, the location of signage indicating parking regulations will be enforced by ticketing, and if meters are used, the location and details of the meters. Posted signs are required at each entrance with a minimum dimension of 11 by 22 inches per state law. The Community Development Department would review the documents and plans to make sure all items meet the full criteria listed in the ordinance in order to receive a registration. Mail-In Parking Charges The parking violation results in a notice of a parking charge (i.e. parking ticket) for unauthorized parking in an off-street private parking facility that would not exceed the fine for stopping in a red zone City of Oxnard parking citation, which is currently $65 . The notice of parking charge would indicate “Invoice” followed by “Parking Fee Imposed by (name of parking operator).” The notices would clearly state that the notice of parking charge is “Not issued by the City of Oxnard” and would not be permitted to resemble a City of Oxnard parking violation notice. Mail-in parking charges would be paid to the private parking owner/operator. Dispute Process After the issuance of a notice of a parking charge, a customer will have the right to dispute the notice with the private parking operator. The ordinance describes the general outline of the dispute procedure for contested parking charges. A specific dispute procedure, not involving the City of Oxnard, will be developed in detail by each parking enforcement operator as part of the registration package reviewed by the city. If the customer is dissatisfied with that result, an administrative hearing held by an appointed qualified third-party examiner can review the disputed charge. After the administrative hearing, the decision is final. The appeal process, including the administrative hearing, would be managed by the private party parking enforcement operator and their qualified third party hearing officer. The City of Oxnard would not be involved in any part of the dispute process, including any appeals process or administrative hearings. Revocation The ability of private property owners to utilize the Private Parking Ordinance would be permitted for specific properties that register with the city, as described above, and that remain in compliance with the ordinance. The Community Development Director would have the ability to issue warnings and revoke a property owner's right to utilize the ordinance should they receive complaints or fail to comply with the requirements of the ordinance. STRATEGIC PRIORITIES This agenda item supports Economic Development strategy. The purpose of the Economic Development strategy is to focus on the retention and expansion of Oxnard businesses by increasing the skills and employability of our local workforce, invite new business investments, and target site-based redevelopment opportunities. FINANCIAL IMPACT There are no financial impacts associated with this agenda item. The City would collect funds from the applicants utilizing Council approved hourly fee rates to cover the cost of reviewing the registration. The City would not collect any private parking ticket charges.

63 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

INFORMATION/CONSENT AGENDA
AGENDA ITEM NO. K.5

DATE: July 15, 2025

TO: Housing Authority

FROM: Brenda Lopez, Interim Housing Director, (805) 385-8092, [email protected]

SUBJECT: Policy, Portfolio Guidelines, and Investment Delegation for the Housing Authority of the City of Oxnard.

RECOMMENDATION

That the Oxnard Housing Authority Board of Commissioners adopt a resolution approving an investment policy and investment portfolio guidelines for the Housing Authority of the City of Oxnard, and delegating investment authority to the Housing Finance Officer for Fiscal Year 2025-2026.

(The Finance and Governance Committee approved 3-0 on June 24, 2025.)

BACKGROUND

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has established requirements governing cash management and approved investment instruments for certain funds under the control of public housing agencies (PHAs). Furthermore, the legislative body of the Housing Authority may invest surplus monies not required for the immediate necessities of the local agency in accordance with the provisions of U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development Notice PIH 2002- 13 and California Government Code (CGC) sections 5922 and 53600 et seq.. Agencies may only invest in instruments specified by HUD and State law.

HUD’s Annual Contributions Contract with PHAs and CGC Section 53607 establish that the Board of Commissioners of the Housing Authority of the City of Oxnard (Board) may delegate its authority to invest or to reinvest surplus monies not required for immediate necessities of the PHA, for a one-year period.

The Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Housing Authority of the City of Oxnard (OHA) Investment Policy, including delegating the investment authority to the Housing Finance Office, and Portfolio Guidelines, was approved by the Board on May 28, 2024. Per the FY 24-25 Investment Policy, the policy is to be reviewed and adopted annually by the Board. The requirement to review and adopt an investment policy annually was in alignment with CGC Section 53646, which was amended in 2004 to eliminate this as a requirement; however, as amended, CGC Section 53646 encourages local agencies to continue taking the formerly mandated actions.

The Investment Policy governs investment of funds, including funds on deposit. HUD defines “funds on deposit” as:

1. Funds for current transactions

2. Capital or development funds

3. Funds exceeding daily requirements

4. Operation reserve funds

In addition, and consistent with the HUD regulations, CGC, the Housing Authorities Law (California Health and Safety Code Sections 34200 et seq.), and OHA Resolution 1308, the OHA investment policy includes a “delegation of authority” to the Housing Finance Officer (HFO). With this delegation, the HFO is authorized to invest surplus monies within the 64 parameters of the OHA’s Investment Policy and consistent with the OHA Investment Guidelines.

Per the City of Oxnard job requirements, the Housing Finance Officer provides management and fiscal analysis and oversight to support programs, projects, executive staff, and elected officials. The Housing Finance Officer is responsible for managing the City’s housing authority programs. Work involves making interpretive decisions on behalf of the organization regarding the means for executing organizational goals. Reviews, prepares, and submits a variety of reports, statements, regulatory documents, policies, procedures, analyzes information and recommends and implements decisions and processes. Represents the City on matters of policy and regulation; develops, implements and monitors policies and procedures; manages budgets.

In recent history, the OHA has invested excess cash utilizing a combination of in-house efforts and an outside agent (LAIF), which is permitted by the HUD and State law. The market value of the OHA’s pooled investment fund as of May 31, 2025, is $22,403,073.56. This value does not include interest earned from April 1, 2025, through May 31, 2025, because quarterly interest earned is applied to the LAIF account mid-July 2025.

DISCUSSION

The Board has approved an annual investment policy, inclusive of a delegation of authority to the HFO, and investment guidelines for many years. After review of OHA’s FY 24-25 policy, as well as review of other jurisdictions’ Housing Authority investment policies and various publications concerning this topic, staff proposes updates for the FY 25-26 Investment Policy and Investment Portfolio Guidelines. Consistent with CGC Section 53646, any changes to the policy shall be considered by the legislative body at a public meeting.

As of May 31, 2025, the OHA has $22M to invest. On average, the HFO transacts three times a year. The monthly and quarterly reports, as required by the FY 24-25 Investment Policy, are available on the Housing website (https://www.oxnard.gov/housing).

Resolution and Investment Policy (incorporated as Attachment A to the Board Resolution

The following highlights of the recommended revisions:

1. Updated references to all applicable California Government Code Sections, and added references to the most recent Oxnard Housing Authority resolution pertaining to delegation of authority and investment duties.

2. Section 1.0 updated to reference all applicable California Government Code Sections. In addition, the language pertaining to delegation of authority was moved to section (5.0) Delegation of Authority and language pertaining to reporting was moved to section (13.0) Reporting.

3. Section 2.0 was updated to remove language pertaining to bonds because the Housing Authority does not issue bonds.

4. Section 3.1 updated “prudent person” to “prudent investor”.

5. Sections 5.0, 8.0, 8.8, 10.0 were updated to reference the most recent California Government Code Sections, as applicable.

6. Section 5.0 was updated to reference the most recent California Government Code Section, removed outdated HUD reference, and removed redundant language. In addition, added a reference to the Investment Guidelines which are contained in Attachment B of the Resolution document.

7. Section 6.0 was revised to add the Housing Director.

8. Section 7.1 was revised to clarify that broker/dealers the Housing Authority chooses to conduct business with must be among the authorized institutions approved by the City.

9. Section 11.0 and 11.1 updated to align with the City of Oxnard’s Investment Policies regarding diversifying the investment portfolio in a manner that minimizes risk, which is consistent with HUD regulations and California Government Code.

10. Section 12 was updated to remove Section 12.1 Investment Review Committee. The Committee was originally established when the Housing Authority had a larger investment portfolio and multiple transactions were completed by the HFO. Due to the decrease in federal funding over the years, the surplus cash available has decreased and transactions are limited to around three transactions in a given year. Section 12.2 was renumbered to Section 12.1 and section 12.3 was renumbered to section 12.2 In addition, under Section 12.2 language was added to clarify that the investment portfolio is part of the annual financial audit. 65 11. Sections 13.0 through 13.2, consistent with CGC 53646 (b)(1), removed the requirement for quarterly reports. In addition to no longer being required by the CGC, the HA does not transact often and has a limited amount of funds to invest. Added language regarding monthly transaction reports and clarified that the investment portfolio is part of the HA’s annual financial audit.

12. Added a new Section, 14.0 Investment Policy Adoption, to incorporate the language originally located in Section

1.0 regarding investment policy adoption.

Investment Portfolio Guidelines (incorporated as Attachment B of the Board Resolution)

The following revisions are recommended:

1. Section 3.0 was revised to clarify that the Board approves the Investment Policy that is developed by the Housing Finance Officer.

2. Section 3.2 was revised to remove language regarding the use of a pre-formated wire transfer because it is not applicable to online banking transactions.

3. Section 4.1 added language regarding five-year maximum maturity as prescribed under CGC 53601 and regarding requirement of Board approval for a permissible security that exceeds this limitation.

4. Section 4.2 updated to reflect most recent FDIC insurance maximums for Time Certificates of Deposit.

5. Section 5.0 updated the workflow of investment transactions to reflect current Housing Authority procedures.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES

This agenda item supports the Organizational Effectiveness strategy. The purpose of the Organizational Effectiveness strategy is to reinforce, stabilize, improve, and strengthen the organizational foundation of the City in order to build a modern, high-functioning City government that effectively and efficiently supports the operating departments in providing high-quality services and programs for our residents and businesses.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

There is no financial impact.

DATE: July 15, 2025

TO: City Council

FROM: Brenda Lopez, Interim Housing Director, (805) 385-8092, [email protected]

SUBJECT: Adoption of the Tenant Anti-Harassment Ordinance.

RECOMMENDATION

That the City Council adopt Ordinance 3057 titled: ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF OXNARD, CALIFORNIA, ADDING ARTICLE III TO CHAPTER 27 OF THE OXNARD CITY CODE ESTABLISHING TENANT ANTI-

HARASSMENT PROTECTIONS

(The Community Services, Public Safety, Housing & Development Committee approved 3-0 on March 25, 2025.)

BACKGROUND

On April 29, 2025, the Oxnard City Council introduced and waived further reading of an ordinance adding Article III to Chapter 27 of the Oxnard City Code, which established tenant anti-harassment protections. The Oxnard City Council approved the introduction of the ordinance by a 6-1 vote.

The proposed ordinance was contingent on the approval of two additional full-time positions necessary for its implementation. On June 17, 2025, the Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget was adopted and included the requested positions, therefore, staff is returning to City Council for a second reading of the ordinance.

If adopted, the ordinance would become effective in thirty days.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES

This agenda item supports the Quality-of-Life strategy. The purpose of the Quality-of-Life strategy is to restore and increase quality services and programs that enrich Oxnard's diverse community, promotes safe neighborhoods, encourages community engagement, and supports our residents in their efforts to improve their quality of life.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

Adoption of the proposed ordinance will have an annual cost of approximately $505,000, which was included in the FY 25-26 budget.

COMMITTEE OUTCOME

The Community Services, Public Safety, Housing & Development Committee approved 3-0 on March 25, 2025.

REPORTS
AGENDA ITEM NO. M.2

DATE: April 29, 2025

TO: City Council

FROM: Brenda Lopez, Interim Housing Director, (805) 385-8092, [email protected]

SUBJECT: Tenant Anti-Harassment Ordinance. (20 minutes)

RECOMMENDATION

That the City Council:

1. Review and approve the first reading by title only and waive further reading of the proposed ordinance titled:
“ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF OXNARD, CALIFORNIA, ADDING ARTICLE III TO CHAPTER 27 OF THE OXNARD CITY CODE ESTABLISHING TENANT ANTI-HARASSMENT PROTECTIONS”; and

2. Authorize two full-time equivalent (FTE) positions, and the associated budget, as part of the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Budget for implementation of the proposed ordinance.

(The Community Services, Public Safety, Housing & Development Committee approved 3-0 on March 25, 2025.)

BACKGROUND

Recently, there has been an increase in the number of cases reported against landlords who are employing coercive tactics in order to induce tenants to vacate their rent stabilized units. Rent stabilized units are subject to a limitation of annual rent increases, for specified properties to 4%.

Some of the reported tactics include: reducing housing services, issuing eviction notices based on false grounds, threatening to contact immigration authorities or refusing to complete repairs required by law. These tactics often force tenants to vacate their units, which in turn allows landlords to raise rents to market rate rent without abiding by the City’s 4% rent caps, for applicable units, or going through the City’s Fair Return Petition Process.

Several jurisdictions such as Santa Monica, West Hollywood, Oakland, San Jose and Los Angeles have seen similar trends, resulting in the adoption of tenant anti-harassment ordinances. It has been reported that the anti-harassment ordinances serve as a deterrent to illegal conduct and assist tenants in their legal defense against landlords who engage in such harassment.

In response to escalating reports of landlord harassment in Oxnard, Councilwoman Basua and Perez requested staff bring forth a Tenant Anti-Harassment Protections Ordinance for City Council’s consideration. Housing staff engaged Mr.

Stephen Lewis, Esq. (Mr. Lewis) to prepare a Tenant Anti-Harassment Protections Ordinance. The proposed ordinance incorporates best practices from the various jurisdictions consulted, continuing the City’s moderate approach, while also ensuring the ordinance did not violate any constitutional protections or published appellate opinions.

On March 25, 2025 staff introduced a draft Tenant Anti-Harassment Protections Ordinance to the Community Services, Public Safety, Housing & Development Committee. At this meeting, staff received input from the Committee, public and 94 various community stakeholders. Although there were a number of changes requested, consensus was reached amongst the stakeholders and Committee Members for two (2) changes, which are further described below.

DISCUSSION

The March 25, 2025 Committee staff report, without attachments, is included as Attachment 3. That report should be read in conjunction with this staff report.

The proposed ordinance prohibits harassment by residential landlords and identifies specific acts and omissions by landlords that constitute prohibited harassment. Violations under the ordinance are a misdemeanor and may be criminally prosecuted by the City. Based on the experience of other jurisdictions with similar ordinances, only the most egregious cases are prosecuted as violations of tenant anti-harassment laws. The ordinance also allows an aggrieved tenant, the City, or an organization to pursue civil action for damages and the recovery of attorney fees. The ordinance would apply citywide to all residential tenancies within the City. A copy of the proposed ordinance is attached to this report (Attachments 1 and 2).

For the ordinance to be effective it would require at least two staff positions, which are discussed in more detail later in this report. The two positions associated with this ordinance will be included for Council consideration of the FY 25-26 budget. Therefore, if the ordinance is approved on April 29th, the ordinance will not come before the Council for adoption until after consideration of the FY 25-26 budget. An ordinance does not go into effect until 30 days after adoption. This means, at the earliest this ordinance would not be effective until at least the end of July.

During the Committee meeting several comments were received and ultimately, consensus was reached and the Committee recommended two (2) changes to the proposed ordinance, as outlined below:

1. Section 27-42(A)(3) addresses an owner’s right to access a rental unit. A request was made to add language specifying the hours during which entry is permitted. In response and in collaboration with community stakeholders, staff proposes adding the following subsection:

(v) “entries outside of normal business hours, which are defined as 7 AM to 7 PM, Monday through Friday, Saturdays 8 AM to 12 PM, except in cases of emergency or when the tenant has abandoned or surrendered the premises, entry may not be made during other than normal business hours unless the tenant consents to an entry during other than normal business hours at the time of entry.”

2. Section 27-42 (A)(10) was amended to clarify “good faith”:

“...This subsection shall not apply to communications and conduct that are made in connection with actual pending litigation or litigation preparation, including any communications and conduct subject to Civil Code section 47 in conjunction with the "good faith" requirements stated in Action Apartment Assn., Inc. v. City of Santa Monica (2007) 41 Cal.4th 1232.”

Implementation of the Tenant Anti-Harassment Ordinance

In preparation for implementing the proposed ordinance, staff reviewed over a dozen anti-harassment laws to better understand the staffing, budget and outcomes associated with the implementation of their respective laws. Based on this research, staff recommends an approach in alignment with the City of Santa Monica, which is a standalone anti- harassment ordinance so it will cover all residential tenancies within the City.

The City of Santa Monica’s Tenant Harassment Ordinance applies to the 33,505 renters as identified in their Housing Element, as compared to an estimated 22,327 housing units in Oxnard that the proposed ordinance would apply to.

The City of Santa Monica receives approximately 200 complaints a year and on average 5-10 of those result in litigation.

Each of those complaints warrants a thorough investigation which often results in substantial staff time needed to prepare these cases prior to the City Attorney’s office receiving them. Santa’s Monica’s ordinance is administered by the City Attorney’s - Consumer Protection Unit, which is staffed by five lawyers, two investigators and support staff.

95 Adoption of a Tenant Anti-Harassment Protections Ordinance would be ineffective without adequate staffing and resources to enforce the ordinance. Based on research with other cities, to launch a citywide program at least two (2) positions are necessary: one (1) partially dedicated Assistant City Attorney and one (1) fully dedicated Housing Investigator.

Enforcement of the proposed ordinance is contingent upon City Council approval of the additional staffing necessary for its implementation. Therefore, if the ordinance is approved on April 29th, the proposed ordinance would return to the City Council for consideration of adoption after the FY 25-26 budget is adopted.

The Assistant City Attorney would conduct legal research, prepare opinions and regulations, prosecute civil or criminal violations related to the Tenant Anti-Harassment Protections Ordinance and other municipal codes, and represent the city in a variety of litigation. The current salary range for an Assistant City Attorney is: $156,976.56 - $216,831.68.

The Housing Investigator would investigate tenant complaints, conduct research, interview witnesses, prepare reports and make referrals for criminal prosecution, civil litigation or to non-profits organizations. The current salary range for a Housing Investigator is: $59,839 - $113,367.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES

This agenda item supports the Quality of Life strategy. The purpose of the Quality of Life strategy is to restore and increase quality services and programs that enrich Oxnard's diverse community, promotes safe neighborhoods, encourages community engagement, and supports our residents in their efforts to improve their quality of life.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

Adoption of the proposed ordinance will have a new fiscal impact on the General Fund. An annual budget of approximately $505,000 is needed to support the two positions, budgeted at mid-range of the salaries, including benefits and fixed charges such as workers compensation, liabilities, unfunded liabilities, etc.

COMMITTEE OUTCOME

On March 25, 2025 staff introduced a draft Tenant Anti-Harassment Protections Ordinance to the Community Services, Public Safety, Housing & Development Committee. Written comments regarding this item were received from the Law Office of Barbara Macri-Ortiz and CAUSE. At this meeting, staff also received input from the Committee, public and various community stakeholders including property owners and managers, and real estate association professionals.

Based on the consensus received, staff amended the draft ordinance as described within this staff report. The Community Services, Public Safety, Housing & Development Committee approved the ordinance as amended, 3-0 on March 25, 2025.

96 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

INFORMATION/CONSENT AGENDA
AGENDA ITEM NO. K.7

DATE: July 15, 2025

TO: City Council

FROM: Michael Wolfe, Public Works Director, (805) 385-8055, [email protected]

SUBJECT: Annual Purchase Orders with Astra Backflow, Inc. for Backflow Equipment and Supplies.

RECOMMENDATION

The City Council approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent to execute annual purchase orders with Astra Backflow, Inc. (Astra) for an initial term of one year from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026, with an option for four consecutive one- year period extensions ending June 30, 2030, for a total contract amount not to exceed $860,000 for backflow equipment and supplies.

(Public Works and Transportation Committee approved 3-0 on June 24, 2025)

BACKGROUND

All potable water systems are required to follow the cross-connection protection mandates under the State Water Resources Control Board Cross-Connection Control Policy Handbook (State’s Handbook). The Water Division has implemented a Cross-Connection Control Program, in compliance with State requirements, which utilizes backflow prevention assemblies to protect the City’s water distribution system. The assemblies prevent water that has been delivered to a customer through a water meter from re-entering the cityside of the system, thus protecting the City’s system from contamination and pollution.

The Water Division currently manages the state-mandated testing compliance on over 11,156 backflow devices. In January 2021, the Water Division started maintaining approximately 673 City-owned backflow devices. This required the Water Division to seek funding and backflow-specific vendors to have the ability to purchase backflow equipment, parts and supplies for repair and replacement of City-owned backflow devices located throughout the City.

The State’s Handbook specifies that all backflow assemblies must be tested at the time of installation, annually, after repairs, and after relocation. Customers who are required to have backflow devices, receive annual notices from the City with a testing due date. On July 1, 2025, the State’s Handbook is set to require that all backflow assemblies that fail the field test are repaired or replaced by the backflow assembly owner within 30 days of notification of the failure.

Each fiscal year, departments and divisions require a quick and efficient method to procure goods required to accomplish their mission. As allowed by the City’s Purchasing Policy, a Blanket Purchase Order (BPO) is an agreement established with a vendor to fill repetitive needs for goods such as backflow equipment and supplies. The BPO utilizes the City’s full buying power by taking advantage of quantity discounts, while also saving administrative time and reducing paperwork.

BPOs can be executed with an aggregate value of $220,000, which is within the City Manager or its designee authority per the Purchasing Policy.

There is currently one vendor providing backflow equipment and supplies set up through an informal bid solicitation. The following summarizes recent Water specific purchase order information:

Staff recommends a not-to-exceed (NTE) annual amount greater than before for the purchase orders to allow for potential price increases, due to the uncertainties around tariffs and to address a backlog of City-owned devices requiring testing.

To provide for better efficiency and to ensure compliance with State regulations, in 2021, the Water Division began maintaining City-owned devices and billing the respective division or department. Starting on July 1, 2025, the State’s Handbook requires that all backflow assemblies that fail the field test are to be repaired or replaced within 30 days of notification of the failure. The cost of which will be borne by the owner of the device.

DISCUSSION

On March 3, 2025, the City issued a Request for Bid (RFB) PW 25-99 to solicit bids from vendors for backflow equipment, parts and supplies. The RFB was posted on the City's website and PublicPurchase.com. The following three vendors submitted bids by the closing date, March 24, 2025:

1. Astra Backflow, Inc. for a total bid amount of $6,571.43

2. Famcon Pipe & Supply, Inc. for a total bid amount of $7,827.34

3. Ferguson Waterworks for a total bid amount of $9,824.83

Upon a full evaluation by the City’s Purchasing Division of the submitted bids, Astra Backflow, Inc. meets all required City contractual provisions. Based upon the available information, historical spending and research performed to date, staff believes that this vendor is capable of satisfactorily meeting the needs of the City.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES

This agenda item supports the Infrastructure and Natural Resources strategy. The purpose of the Infrastructure and Natural Resources strategy is to preserve and improve our roads, utilities, parks, trees, water supply and natural resources through effective planning, prioritization, and an equitable and efficient use of available funding.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

The total cost of the purchase orders with Astra Backflow, Inc. shall not exceed $860,000 if all term options are fully utilized. The funding for FY 2025-26 has been programmed in the Water Operating Fund (601) in the Fiscal Year 2025- 26 Proposed Budget for City Council’s consideration. Funding for subsequent fiscal years will be requested during the annual budget process. The estimated spending plan per fiscal year is as follows:

98 Estimated Spending Plan
Account FY 25-26 FY 26-27 FY 27-28 FY 28-29 FY 29-30 TOTAL 6013607-52400 $125,000 $135,000 $145,000 $155,000 $165,000 $725,000 6013605-52400 $10,000 $13,000 $16,000 $19,000 $21,000 $79,000 6013600-52400 $8,000 $9,000 $11,000 $13,000 $15,000 $56,000 TOTAL $143,000 $157,000 $172,000 $187,000 $201,000 $860,000

COMMITTEE OUTCOME

The Public Works and Transportation Committee approved 3-0 on June 24, 2025 to approve the staff recommendation and to forward the item for Council approval.

INFORMATION/CONSENT AGENDA
AGENDA ITEM NO. K.8

DATE: July 15, 2025

TO: City Council

FROM: Michael Wolfe, Public Works Director, (805) 385-8055, [email protected]

SUBJECT: Public Project Agreement 32600023 with BSN Construction Inc. for Asphalt Repairs in Multiple Neighborhood Locations, Specification No. PW 25-107.

RECOMMENDATION

That the City Council approve and authorize the Mayor to execute an Agreement with BSN Construction Inc., in the amount of $504,768 for the Project and approve a Project contingency amount of $50,477 (~10%) for a total not to exceed value of $555,245 for the Project.

(Public Works and Transportation Committee approved 3-0 on June 24, 2025)

BACKGROUND

Underground water main and service lateral leaks typically require removal of paving or sidewalk panels to make repairs. Once the underground utility work is performed, Water staff members install temporary material (e.g. cold patch) to allow for the roadway (or sidewalk) to be used safely until such time a cost-effective more permanent repair can be made. This ultimately results in the need to install small, approximately six-foot by six-foot, patches. The Water Division does not currently have the equipment or materials to make permanent repairs and instead installs temporary pavement as noted before. Nor would it be an efficient use of time or resources for the Water staff to conduct pavement repairs instead of working on the water infrastructure given the current staffing model. Temporary patches are grouped together and bid out for permanent repair to gain the greatest advantage of economies of scale when bidding. Additionally, the quantity of work required to repair active locations would exceed the Force Account limit for in-house projects, which is another reason to solicit bids for this work.

This project consists of 145 patches, approximately 4,886 total square feet, at different locations throughout the City. The scope of work includes furnishing all labor, materials, equipment, and other incidentals to provide concrete and asphalt repair and street striping services.

DISCUSSION

The Notice Inviting Formal Bids (NIFB) of this project was published on May 8, 2025. Publication included the local newspaper and multiple online platforms, in addition to being directly distributed to 33 contractors who have registered with the City to be notified of Public Project bids within their license category. All bids were opened on May 28, 2025, and the City received the following bids:

BSN Construction Inc.: $504,768
ADA General Eng. Inc.: $516,907
Toro Enterprises, Inc.: $576,607

Procurement staff reviewed all bids and documentation and determined BSN Construction Inc. is the lowest responsive bidder. Procurement staff verified possession of required, currently valid licenses, reviewed the federal Occupational 101
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) website for safety violations, and verified registration with the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR). Based upon the available information and research performed to date, staff believes that the contractor is capable of satisfactorily completing the project. Thus, staff recommends that the City Council award the contract for this Project to BSN Construction Inc.

This construction contract shall be completed before expiration of ninety (90) working days after the issuance of the Notice to Proceed (NTP).

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES

This agenda item supports the Infrastructure and Natural Resources strategy. The purpose of the Infrastructure and Natural Resources strategy is to preserve and improve our roads, utilities, parks, trees, water supply, and natural resources through effective planning, prioritization, and an equitable and efficient use of available funding.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

The total cost for this Agreement with BSN Construction Inc. shall not exceed $555,245 which includes $504,768 for the Project and a Project contingency amount of $50,477 (~10%). The funding for the Asphalt Repairs in Multiple Neighborhood Locations, Specification No. PW 25-107 has been programmed in the Proposed Fiscal Year 2025-26 Budget from the Water Operating Fund 601 (Account 6013600-53200) for City Council’s consideration.

COMMITTEE OUTCOME

The Public Works and Transportation Committee approved 3-0 on June 24, 2025 to approve the staff recommendation and to forward the item for Council approval.

26 INSTRUCTION FOR SUBMITTING INSURANCE CERTIFICATES AND ENDORSEMENT FORMS

Certificates of Insurance

The sample accord form on the following page is provided to facilitate your preparation and submission of certificates of insurance. You may use this or any industry form that shows coverage as broad as that shown on the attached sample.

Please note the certificate holder address must be as shown on the attached sample accord form with the contract number and insurance exhibit identification information completed. Imprope rly addressed certificates may delay the contract start -up date because the City’s practice is to return unidentifiable insurance certificates to the insured for clarification as to the contract number. Cancellation provisions must be endorsed to the poli cy. Modifying the certificate does not change coverage or obligate the carrier to provide notice of cancellation.

Endorsement Forms

Original endorsements are required for general liability and automobile liability insurance policies and must be attached to the applicable certificate of insurance. City preference is that you use the endorsement forms which are attached. Substitute forms will be accepted, however, as long as they include provisions comparable to the attached.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

INFORMATION/CONSENT AGENDA
AGENDA ITEM NO. K.9

DATE: July 15, 2025

TO: City Council

FROM: Michael Wolfe, Public Works Director, (805) 385-8055, [email protected]

SUBJECT: Agreement 32600002 with Pirate California Holdings, LLC dba Pirate Staffing for Temporary and Supplemental Labor Services at the Del Norte Regional Recycling and Transfer Station.

RECOMMENDATION

That the City Council approve and authorize the Mayor to execute an agreement with Pirate California Holdings, LLC dba Pirate Staffing with an initial term of three years from July 16, 2025 through July 15, 2028, with an option for two one-year extensions ending July 15, 2030 for a total amount not to exceed $1,250,000, for temporary and supplemental labor services at the Del Norte Regional Recycling and Transfer Station (Del Norte).

(Public Works and Transportation Committee approved 3-0 on June 24, 2025)

BACKGROUND

The Public Works Environmental Resources Division (ER) has traditionally relied on temporary staffing services to support its workforce in response to changing operational needs, staff vacancies, and urgent projects. These temporary staffing contracts have enabled the City to maintain consistent service delivery, manage periods of increased workload, and meet short-term staffing demands more efficiently than through standard recruitment processes.

The use of temporary staffing began as a practical solution to bridge gaps caused by retirements, extended leaves of absence, and recruitment delays. Over time, the City has used, when necessary, temporary staffing to ensure departments remain adequately staffed while permanent positions are being filled.

One key area where this need is especially prominent is ER, which is responsible for the City’s solid waste, recyclable, and organic material collection services, as well as the operation of the Del Norte. ER operations rely on a workforce of over 180 employees across 25 job classifications to support the wide range of services expected from a full-service solid waste utility.

Certain positions within ER—specifically Maintenance Worker (Sorter), Maintenance Technician (Maintenance Worker Trainee), and Administrative Technician (Office Assistant)—have historically experienced high turnover. Recruitment for these roles is often ongoing, and vacancies can disrupt operational efficiency and daily scheduling. As a result, existing staff are frequently required to work overtime to meet service demands, which increases operational costs and staff fatigue.

To address these challenges and ensure service continuity, ER has utilized temporary staffing services for the past 11 years. Having access to temporary and supplemental labor through a qualified outside vendor enables ER to maintain cost-effective, uninterrupted operations during recruitment periods or unexpected staffing shortages.

The use of temporary staffing has been formalized through contracts with staffing agencies. These agreements have typically ranged in duration from one to three years, with contract amounts varying based on divisional/departmental needs and staffing levels. For example:
139
• A three-year agreement between ER and Pirate Staffing initiated on July 16, 2022, valued at $800,000, and averaging approximately $250,000 annually, provides supplemental labor services for Del Norte, including the solid waste and recycling collection program and Materials Recovery Facility (MRF); • A two-year agreement between ER and Select Staffing valued at $1,600,000 initiated on January 7, 2014, for supplemental labor services for the Del Norte facility, including the solid waste and recycling collection program and MRF.

ER’s continued use of temporary help contracts remains a practical and cost-effective approach to addressing workforce challenges, minimizing service disruptions, and supporting essential public operations.

DISCUSSION

On January 23, 2025, the City's Purchasing Department issued a formal Request for Proposal (RFP) 25-87 for Temporary Labor Services for ER. The RFP was sent directly to nine potential vendors, with an additional 49 vendors that were invited based upon their classification or were self-invited through the Public Purchase website: www.PublicPurchase.com, as well as the City’s Purchasing website. Proposals were due March 6, 2025, and a total of 10 proposals were received.

An evaluation committee from the Environmental Resource Division including a Material Recovery Facility Supervisor, two Environmental Resources Services Administrative Assistants, and Human Resource Administrative Services Analyst, reviewed, evaluated and determined Pirate California Holdings, LLC dba Pirate Staffing (Pirate Staffing) to be the highest-ranked proposer based on the scoring criteria listed in the RFP. Scoring criteria consisted of Qualification and experience, ability and history in providing the requested services for public agencies of similar size, population and need of the City, and overall responsiveness and completeness of the proposed scope of work. Additionally, the awarded vendor meets all required City contractual provisions, including possession of a City Business Tax Certificate, City’s living wage policy, insurance certificates, and corporate filing with the California Secretary of State. Therefore, based upon the analysis and research performed to date, staff believes that the recommended vendor is capable of successfully performing temporary and supplemental labor services at the Del Norte.

For FY 2025, the following hourly rates for regular-time (reg) / overtime (OT) for the noted positions are included in this agreement: Maintenance Worker (Sorter): $30.96 (reg) / $46.44 (OT); Maintenance Technician (Maintenance Worker Trainee): $30.96 (reg) / $46.44 (OT); and Administrative Technician (Office Assistant): $29.35 (reg) / $44.03 (OT). Rates for future fiscal years can be found on page 30 of Agreement 32600002 listed as “Exhibit B” titled:
“SCHEDULE OF COMPENSATION.”

TO: City Council

FROM: Michael Wolfe, Public Works Director, (805) 385-8055, [email protected]

SUBJECT: Agreement 32500487 with Cragoe Pest Services, Inc. for Landscape Pest Control Services.

RECOMMENDATION

That the City Council approve and authorize the Mayor to execute an agreement with Cragoe Pest Services, Inc. with an initial term of three years from July 16, 2025 to July 15, 2028, with an option for two consecutive one-year period extensions ending July 15, 2030, and for a total amount not to exceed $660,000 for landscape pest control services at City parks and other City landscaped areas.

(Public Works and Transportation Committee approved 3-0 on June 24, 2025)

BACKGROUND

The City currently contracts for landscape pest control services at various City parks and other landscaped facilities. This contract provides flexibility for adjusting the service levels to match each park and facility’s landscape treatment needs and budget. The City parks are inspected monthly and treated (if necessary) for gophers, ground squirrels, mice, rats, and bees.

DISCUSSION

On January 29, 2025, the Purchasing Division published a Request for Bid (RFB) PW 25-54A for landscape pest control services within City parks and other City landscapes. Three potential vendors were directly notified of the RFB, as well as the RFB being published on www.PublicPurchase.com and the City’s Purchasing website. Bid submissions were due by February 26, 2025. The RFB states, "The award is based upon the vendor that has bid and can provide all items requested and has the lowest average cost total of all Locations". Therefore, based upon the bids provided, Cragoe Pest Services is the lowest bidder. The bid results for the landscape pest control services are as follows:

Contractor Initial Treatment Bid

Cragoe Pest Services $12,235.00 $4,430.00 $60,965.00

This Agreement with Cragoe Pest Services Inc. provides monthly landscape pest control services that include, but are not limited to, gophers, ground squirrels, mice, rats, and bees in the parks and other City landscapes. Additionally, this Agreement provides for on-call services to respond to unscheduled landscape pest control issues at other City facilities.

The on-call services will be requested by City Staff through Task Orders. Staff has confirmed that Cragoe Pest Services, Inc. meets all required City contractual provisions, including pest control licenses, possession of a City business tax certificate, insurance certificates, and corporate filing with the California Secretary of State. Based upon the available information and research performed to date, staff believes the vendor is capable of satisfactorily completing the services in this Agreement.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES

This agenda item supports the Infrastructure and Natural Resources strategy. The purpose of the Infrastructure and Natural Resources strategy is to preserve and improve our roads, utilities, parks, trees, water supply and natural resources through effective planning, prioritization, and an equitable and efficient use of available funding.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

The total cost for this Agreement with Cragoe Pest Services, Inc. shall not exceed $660,000 over the term of five years.

Services will commence in FY 2025-26 and funds have been included in the proposed FY 2025-26 Budget. The funding for future years will be requested during the annual budget process. There is an estimated 3% annual inflation increase beginning in FY 2026-27 that is factored into the total not-to-exceed amount for this Agreement. Approval for an annual inflation factor will require a written request, with documentation, for the increase to be considered.

The on-call amounts are for services that will only be authorized by staff through an assigned Task Order for any non- routine landscape pest control services. The following Estimated Spending Plan includes the Parks Division and Special Districts Division monthly services, with estimated on-call expenses for the various departments and divisions to address potential on-call services that may be requested. These on-call services are subject to available funding within the associated department/division budgets. There is no guarantee that the on-call amounts within the Estimated Spending Plan will be spent on landscape pest control services. Parks account includes initial treatment cost for FY 2025-26.
