CITY OF PACIFIC GROVE
300 Forest Avenue, Pacific Grove, California 93950
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Brian Pierik, City Attorney
MEETING DATE: August 21, 2024
SUBJECT: Second Reading of an Ordinance Amending Section 2.06.010 (a) of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code Relating to Residency Requirement for City Manager CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION
Hold second reading of an Ordinance Amending Section 2.06.010 (a) of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code Relating to Residency Requirement for City Manager.

DISCUSSION
No changes were made between the first and second readings of this ordinance. The City Clerk caused a summary of this ordinance to be published on August 15, 2024.

Municipal Code Section 2.06.010 currently reads, in pertinent part, as follows:

“The city manager shall be appointed by the affirmative vote of five-sevenths of the council. The city manager, who shall be the administrative head of the city government, shall be chosen by the council without regard to political consideration and with reference solely to his/her qualifications for such office.
(a) Residence Requirement. It shall not be necessary that he or she reside in the city at the time of his/her appointment, but he or she shall become a resident thereof within 60 days thereafter and thereafter during his or her incumbency actually reside in said city.” California Constitution, Article XI, Section 10 (b) reads:

“(b) A city or county, including any chartered city or chartered county, or public district, may not require that its employees be residents of such city, county, or district; except that such employees may be required to reside within a reasonable and specific distance of their place of employment or other designated location.”
Thus, the test to determine whether a residency requirement is valid is one of reasonableness and should be evaluated based on whether it is designed to achieve a legitimate objective.

There are considerations that can be included in determining what is a reasonable distance for a City PGCC 8-21-24

Manager residence. For example, the City Manager serves as the emergency services director for the City and should be living within a reasonable driving distance to take action during an emergency.

For these reasons, this Ordinance is being proposed to amend Section 2.06.010 (a) to read as (a) Residence Requirement. It shall not be necessary that he or she reside in the city at the time of his/her appointment, but he or she shall become a resident thereof within 60 days thereafterand thereafter during his or her incumbency actually reside in said city of the County of Monterey or such other location as mutually agreed upon in writing by the City Council and the City Manager.

With this amendment to Section 2.06.010 (a) the City Manager would not be required to live in the City of Pacific Grove, but would be required to be a resident of the County of Monterey or such other location as mutually agreed upon in writing by the City Council and City Manager.

OPTIONS
Provide alternative direction.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact related to enactment of this Ordinance.

FOCUSED PRIORITY AREA: Not Applicable.

CITY OF PACIFIC GROVE
300 Forest Avenue, Pacific Grove, California 93950
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Gho, Public Works Director/Deputy City Manager MEETING DATE: August 21, 2024
SUBJECT: Second Reading of an Ordinance Approving an Amendment to the Lease between Lighthouse Fellowship and the City of Pacific Grove
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION
Hold second reading of an Ordinance approving an amendment to the lease between Lighthouse Fellowship and the City of Pacific Grove for the use of City owned property located at 515 Junipero Avenue, commonly known as the Community Center, in the City of Pacific Grove, and authorizing the Mayor to execute Amendment #2 and any Letters of extension of the Lease.

DISCUSSION
No changes were made between the first and second readings of this ordinance. The City Clerk caused a summary of the ordinance to be published on August 15, 2024.

The City owns the property located at 515 Junipero Avenue, Pacific Grove, CA 93950. This property is commonly known as the Community Center. Within the larger property is an office space, referred to as the Community Center Office. From 2009 until 2015 the office space was seldom used. In March 2015, the City signed a Lease agreement with Lighthouse Fellowship for one year, with two, one-year extension options. In 2018, the Council authorized an amendment to the Lease for an additional year, with up to five (5) consecutive options to renew and extend the term of the lease, each for a period of up to one (1) year. The last extension was harnessed in FY2023/2024.

The Lighthouse Fellowship desires to remain a tenant of the Community Center Office and has requested an extension of the lease agreement. The staff recommendation is to authorize Amendment #2 to the Lease Agreement. The amendment will extend the term of the lease for a one-year period (FY2024-2025), with up to four (4) options to extend the lease annually, each for a period of up to one (1) year. All other terms of the lease will remain the same including the rent. The agreed upon rent is $650 per month, for the 600 square feet of office space. The Lighthouse Fellowship provides all the necessary insurance documents and fulfills all conditions noted in the original lease documents.

During this 9-year term, Lighthouse Fellowship has been a positive presence at the facility and a great partner with the City of Pacific Grove.

TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Jazelle Johnson, Accountant
MEETING DATE: August 21, 2024
SUBJECT: Fourth Quarter Treasurer’s Quarterly Report
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION

1. Receive the report.

2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.

DISCUSSION
Article 19, Section (K) of the City Charter requires that a quarterly statement of all funds in the treasury be submitted to the Council. The Treasurer’s report allows the Council and public to verify that the City’s funds are invested in a safe and prudent manner, and that such investments comply with City policy and state law. The Treasurer’s Report is different from a budget report, as its purpose is to report on cash balances.

This report reflects the City’s balances as of June 30th, 2024 and shows that cash and investments were held citywide, with a market value of $ 37,892,561.22. All investments are in government securities, certificates of deposit (CD), or other approved investment vehicles. The maturity dates are laddered, to ensure liquidity. Investments that have matured will be reinvested according to the cities' applicable policies. All bank balances are insured. The City does not actively trade either certificates of deposits or federal agency securities but holds investments in the portfolio for maturity.

CITY OF PACIFIC GROVE
300 Forest Avenue, Pacific Grove, California 93950
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: George Fuerst, Environmental Program Manager
MEETING DATE: August 21, 2024
SUBJECT: Monarch Sanctuary Annual Report
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION

1. Receive the report.

2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.

DISCUSSION
The City of Pacific Grove partners with Creekside Science for consulting services regarding the Monarch Grove Sanctuary. On a yearly basis, Dr. Stuart B. Weiss has worked with City staff to identify needed management activities in the Monarch Grove Sanctuary and George Washington Park. Dr.

Weiss' report highlights recent history and current conditions, long-term views, and recommendations.

The major management actions that are recommended for 2024 are:
1) Rake up downed bark, branches, and leaves along the Southern Boundary to reduce fire hazards. (Partially completed)
2) Remove hazard trees and branches.
3) Buck up and distribute the large fallen tree in the interior. (Mostly completed) 4) Hiatus on new tree plantings except for one spot by the hotel driveway. (Two pine trees have been planted to replace dead pine removed at lower trail, two pine trees have been planted by hotel driveway, and two pine trees have been planted to replace small dead trees in other interior locations. 3-6 toyon shrubs are in the process of being planted.)
5) Initiate and continue thinning of overly dense trees, especially planted cypress NE of nectar beds. 6) Remove boxed trees before they root in place. (Completed) 7) Remove old stakes and cages. (Partially completed)
8) Manage nectar beds, and plan for replacement and pruning of poor performing species and beds. (Partially completed)
9) Re-examine irrigation scheduling and implementation. Implementing deep watering at George Washington Park is one immediate area of adjustment.

Additional short-term recommendations for 2024, some of which were recommended in 2023 and not implemented, are detailed in the attached report.

PGCC 8-21-24

The management update was presented to the Beautification and Natural Resources Commission on July 16th, 2024 and sent to California Department of Fish and Wildlife for review.

City staff and Dr. Stuart Weiss held a public walk through of the Monarch Sanctuary on August 9th, 2024 to discuss the assessment and proposed management activities with the public.

3 Executive Summary
In fall 2023, the California overwintering population was estimated at ~233,000 butterflies during the Thanksgiving Counts. The Western monarch butterfly migration has made a great comeback from perilously low numbers (~2000) in 2020, rising to ~250,000 in 2021 and 335,000 in 2022-2033. Hypothesized causes of the crash and the recovery are covered in the 2023 report Appendix.

Numbers at Monarch Grove Sanctuary (MGS) were estimated at 5,000-8,000 from earlyNovember through mid-January. The comparison between the official Thanksgiving Count (6,608 on Nov. 19) and the New Years (Late Season) Count (5,785 on Jan. 5) exhibited a 12% drop from December to January, which was one of the best performances of any large site in California. Numbers dropped to 3,000 in early February, and the monarchs emigrated from the grove by the last week in February.

After arriving in early October, the butterflies clustered in sunny areas on the southern edge of the grove, on a mixture of eucalyptus and Monterey Pines. By mid-November, they clustered in the South Interior of the grove on Monterey pines and then retreated farther into the Interior in early January following storms. They moved back to the South Interior by late-January, and then occupied the Driveway and Nectar beds in February.

The implementation of the 2023 management recommendations was forestalled by a combination of delayed City authorization and early arrival of some monarchs in lateSeptember. Therefore, boxed trees remained in place, and the downed trees were not bucked up and dispersed. By early December, the large pine near the NW corner of the Sanctuary fully died, and the trail past the nectar beds was closed for the season because of the overhanging dead branches. This tree was removed after the emigration of the monarchs. The boxed trees were removed from the hotel property, but remained along the SE fence as of early June (with plans to remove them).

One frightening event was a small fire along the south fence, that was quickly discovered and extinguished. This is a warning shot that calls for expedited removal of downed fine fuels.

The major short-term management actions recommended for 2024 are:
1) Rake up downed bark, branches, and leaves along the Southern Boundary to reduce fire hazards
2) Remove hazard trees and branches
3) Buck up and distribute the large fallen tree in the interior. 4) Hiatus on new tree plantings except for one spot by the hotel driveway 5) Initiate and continue thinning of overly dense trees, especially planted cypress NE of nectar beds.

4 6) Remove boxed trees before they root in place.
7) Remove old stakes and cages.
8) Manage nectar beds, and plan for replacement and pruning of poorperforming species and beds. 9) Re-examine irrigation scheduling and implementation. Implementing deep watering at George Washington Park is one immediate area of adjustment.

Longer-term management actions will benefit from a new comprehensive site management plan that will guide activities well into the future. Funding is available via the Monterey County Resource Conservation District (as part of a large statewide program) and with the participation of California Department of Fish and Wildlife (which holds the conservation easement on MGS), and a final proposal is near completion as of July 2024.

Introduction
The following recommendations and assessments are based on site visits over the 2023- 2024 season and on-site consultations with City Arborist Albert Weisfuss and environmental manager George Fuerst in early June 2024, followed by a site walk with Liese Murphree and Natalie Johnston of the Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History.

They are presented in the context of the 2011 Management Plan (Weiss 2011) and subsequent consultations with City staff and residents, including annual recommendations from 2014-2023 (Weiss 2014-2023). The recommendations are based on work at Monarch Grove Sanctuary since 1997, Decades of scientific work at dozens of monarch sites, professional judgment, input from stakeholders in Pacific Grove, and field assessments. They attempt to carefully balance monarch habitat needs, hazard reduction, and forest health, based on both short-term and long-term perspectives.

Background data on monarch numbers at Monarch Grove Sanctuary (Xerces Society Thanksgiving Counts and New Year’s Counts) provide context of the entire California monarch population. Butterfly monitoring data from the Pacific Grove Museum since 2013 have documented monarch use patterns and habitat suitability relative to weather and time of season. This reporting on monarch abundance and distribution provides a long-term accessible record for the local community.

The major elements of this report are:

1. The numbers at Pacific Grove in California context, including both Thanksgiving and New Years’ Counts.

2. The monitoring data from the PG Museum on monarch numbers and distribution through the season, and interpretation.

3. A graphical view of Monterey Airport data, to identify high wind events and aid in interpreting the movement of monarchs within MGS, including some comparisons with 2022-2023.

4. A brief review of management actions completed in recent years.

5. Recommendations for management actions in summer 2024.

PGCC 8-21-24

5 6. Photographs of monarchs and habitats with notes.

In 2020, City Arborist Albert Weisfuss completed a detailed report with his recommendations, and those were considered in the 2020 report (Weisfuss 2020). The assessments and recommendations (with a few noted exceptions) are a solid foundation for guiding management, and the input of a professional arborist is essential especially on matters of tree health and species suitability.

A horticultural report (Regan Biological and Horticultural Consulting 2022) was developed that addresses issues with the nectar beds.

Appendices addressing key issues - the 2020 collapse and subsequent recovery, outlines of a new long-term management plan, and LiDAR visualizations - were included in the 2023 report and will not be repeated here for sake of brevity.

Monarch Grove Sanctuary in California Context
Monarch Grove Sanctuary (MGS) supported a peak of 7,663 monarch butterflies on November 11, 2023 (Pacific Grove Museum Counts). The official Thanksgiving Count(TG) was 6,608. The California TG total was 233,394 monarchs at more than 100 sites from Sonoma County to Baja California. The numbers of monarchs at Pacific Grove primarily reflect the ups and downs of the overall California population (r2 = 0.80), with some variations among years (Table 1, Figure 1). MGS has served as one of the major overwintering sites in California, accounting for an average of 7% (range 1% to 14%) of the Thanksgiving Counts since 1999. Its rank among all CA sites ranged from 1 st (2006) to
17th (2009), and MGS is almost always in the top 10 sites. For Monterey County (from 2001 on), MGS accounted for an average of 37% (range 17% to 58%) of the county population.

In 2023-24, MGS supported 2.8% of the CA population, and 38% of the Monterey County population during the Thanksgiving Counts. It was the 10th largest site in California.

The New Years’ counts (or Late Season Counts, Table 2) across several nearby sites indicate how well sites maintain monarch numbers into early January. MGS retained 88% of its butterflies, its highest retention rate since 2019-2020 (rate of 97% with a low population around 1,000, see 2023 report). MGS had one of the better retention rates in California, similar to Lighthouse Field (84%) and higher than Pismo North (63%), Moran Lake (70%), but below Natural Bridges (102%). And it was higher than the overall retention rate for California as a whole (72%).

Seasonal Monarch Behavior
In general, monarchs seek wind-sheltered but sunny sites within forest groves along the coast where winter temperatures are mild. They “crowdsource the microclimate” - taking flight when conditions are too warm or too cool, too sunny, or too shady, and PGCC 8-21-24

6 especially too windy. They tend to land where other monarchs are clustered, because the best indicator of good conditions for monarchs is the presence of other butterflies.

The butterfly clusters move around according to the weather and time of year; exposure to higher winds (> 5 mph at ground level) is often the proximal cause of shifts. They have often clustered just outside MGS to the south on an isolated Monterey Pine; and they use a mixture of tree species (eucalyptus, pine, and cypress) that varies from week to week and year to year.

The seasonal course of monarch numbers at MGS for the decade spanning 2013-2024 (Figure 2a) shows arrival in October, peaks in late-November through early-December, and declines in January and February as monarchs die or leave the site. In two seasons (2018-2019 and 2022-2023) monarchs were present into March (as they were in 2010- 2011, SBW pers. obs.). All three of these years were relatively cool.

Butterflies move around MGS, often associated with wind events – they often start the season along the sunny southern boundary and move into the interior following southerly storm winds. Emigration and mortality reduce numbers through the remainder of the season. Mating and emigration are stimulated by warmer temperatures and longer days that break reproductive diapause, leading to a final exodus by mid-February into early-March. The details of recent seasons (2013-2023) are described in previous reports.

In 2023-2024 (thick black line in Figure 2a), a few monarchs were observed at the very end of September (not graphed), and they really arrived in numbers in early-October.

The population rose to 7,663 by early November, and held above 5,000 though early January. Numbers then declined in late-January and emigration was complete by midFebruary (only 59 butterflies were counted on February 23).

Monarchs clustered on a variety of tree species and shifted through the season (Figure 2b). In 2023-2024, monarchs started primarily on eucalyptus along the southern edge.

By early November, they moved to primarily Monterey pines in the South Interior (just north of the main trail). Some cypresses were used in late-December and early January, and in February, they moved to cypresses. Many monarchs were clustered on lace lichen hanging from the pines at various points in the season.

The spatial distribution of monarchs in 2023-2024 changed over the season (Figure 2c, 2d). They started out primarily on the South Edge (blue, primarily on eucalyptus Figure 2b), and moved deeper into the grove to pines in the South Interior just N of the main trail by mid-November (light green). In early-January, they were primarily in the Interior, but by January 19, had moved back to the South Interior. At the end of the season in February, many had moved to the Driveway. The Driveway may be a favorable area late in the season because it catches morning sun, which allows monarchs to start flight and mating early in the day.

PGCC 8-21-24

7 The preference for pines and cypress for most of the season is the result of the windsheltered interior being dominated by pines and cypress, not an intrinsic preference for those species. In previous years, monarchs have used eucalyptus much more frequently during the bulk of the season, when they remained along the South Edge.

Insecticide Incident
In late January 2024 a few hundred monarchs were found dead by the NW corner of the hotel. Dead monarchs were collected and sent off to a USGS laboratory for assessment of various insecticides. All butterflies contained significant loads of various pesticides.

Because of the unique nature of this incident, a fuller report is being prepared outside of this annual report
This incident emphasizes the importance of engagement with and education of the MGS neighbors, especially the Hotel.

Weather 2023-2024
Weather is the primary driver of monarch movements within MGS. The daily weather at Monterey Airport (KMRY, Figure3) provides a view of the regional synoptic meteorology (passage of storm fronts, high wind events, and temperature extremes). While KMRY does not absolutely represent the conditions within MGS, high winds there are representative of the conditions outside the canopy at MGS. KMRY serves as an indicator of high regional wind events that can be tied to historical monarch movements within MGS. It also provides the only nearby long-term climatology for observing historical ranges of variability and trends with climate change.

The 2023-2024 overwintering season started off in October with a heatwave (>90°F over two days) just as monarchs were arriving. Later that month another period >80°F occurred. The first mild rainfall occurred in mid-November, but soaking rains did not commence until late December. No notable periods of high winds >20 mph occurred in the fall (but several days had winds > 15 mph). Only five periods over the entire season had minimum temperatures <40°F, so there was no risk of freezing. The first winds > 20 mph occurred in mid-January followed by another wind peak (28 mph) on February 4, associated with a strong multi-day rain event. A period of warm temperatures (60-70°F) in late January and the strong wind event on February 4 was followed by a large drop in numbers. The high temperatures likely primed the monarchs to break diapause, and they mostly emigrated from the grove by mid-February. After emigration, a period of cold rainy weather set in in March, but did not affect the overwintering season.

However, the rainy March was key for containment of the small fire on March 31, 2024 (see below).

The rainy season provided a second year of good growing conditions for the vegetation, after a 3-year drought period from 2020-2022.

8 Comparison with 2022-2023 Season
Overall, 2023-2024 was a mild winter, especially compared with 2022-2023 (Figure 3d).

In 2022-2023, multiple consecutive strong storms (with many days of wind >20 mph in January 2023) drove the monarchs ever deeper into the grove; more than 95% of the population was in the Interior and North Interior for most of January 2023, and by early February, >95% of the monarchs were in the North Interior escaping the winds. In 2023- 2024, the only period of movement to the Interior occurred In January following the late-December 2023 and early January 2024 storms, and the North Interior was hardly occupied at all until the very end of the season (Figure 2C).

Temperatures were cooler in 2022-2023 than in 2023-2024 (Figure 3 bottom, red lines are 2022-2023 and blue lines are 2023-2024). Cooler temperatures in 2022-2023 encouraged monarchs to remain in the grove much later (into March) than in 2023-2024 (mid-February).

Nectar
Monarchs will visit many species of flowers for nectar. Early season (OctoberNovember) nectar allows monarchs to “refuel” after their often long migration, and helps keep monarchs at MGS, where they can attract other monarchs arriving from the breeding grounds. Nectar provides energy for flight, and the high nectar availability at many California overwintering sites allows monarchs to conserve fat reserves and maintain body mass through the overwintering season.

The major species used at MGS in the early season are tree daisy (Monarch Photo 1), bottlebrush (2), and English Ivy (3). The ivy-covered stump at the NE corner attracted hundreds of butterflies in the fall. But that stump and ivy was removed by the hotel in 2024.

Yellow butterfly bush (Buddleia) is also frequently used, but the bushes are overgrown and need some cutting back to freshen flower production and force flowering during the critical October-November period. Blue gum eucalyptus come into flower in January and provide copious nectar for the latter part of the season. The flowering red gum (E. filicifolia) sometimes blooms in the fall and is visited frequently during warm weather.

Monarchs will avoid shade when air temperatures are cool, so the sunny areas near the nectar beds are crucial and should be used to the fullest. The sunniest areas are at the north end of the nectar beds, near the bench.

Another species that should be considered is orange colored Mexican sunflower, which is heavily used in the fall at the Gill Tract in Albany (Monarch Photo 4). Several native species that provide fall nectar are identified by the Xerces Society and would be a welcome addition to the understory in the grove.

Nectar source management, including a detailed analysis of sun exposure, will be an important part of the new management plan.

PGCC 8-21-24

9 Current state of Monarch Grove Sanctuary
Monarch Grove Sanctuary continues to provide high quality overwintering habitat. Large numbers of monarchs persisted throughout recent overwintering seasons, indicating that there is sufficient wind shelter and dappled light in the grove, even under extreme storm conditions in years like 2022-2023. But some vulnerabilities remain, and may develop into the future if actions are not taken in advance, given how long it takes for trees to grow compared with how quickly trees and branches can fall and open wind tunnels for take out other key trees.

The depth of MGS allowed monarchs to take refuge from strong southerly winds in the far Northern Interior section in 2022-2023 (also observed in 2017 and other stormy years). The shelterbelt of eucalyptus and other species planted in 1999 (Photo 11) is well established (>60’ tall) and now provides solid NW wind protection so that monarchs can remain in the Interior zone when winds shift from southerly to northwesterly following storms. An additional row of eucalyptus was planted in 2021 south of the main trial and the trees are growing, albeit slowly because of shade and root competition by the large eucalyptus along the South Edge (Photo 13). Monarchs cluster on these trees early in the season. Overly dense plantings of blue gums in the SE corner, not authorized by the City, are resulting in stressed unhealthy trees.

In terms of recent active management, most hazard trees and branches have been removed over time, but some dead pines remain (Photo 17), and others are close to death. A completely dead pine threatening the main path in the South Interior was identified and promptly removed in 2023 (Photo 18), a good example of rapid response to hazards. The large pine NW of the nectar beds and over the trail was partially dead in summer 2023 (Photo 7). It was recommended to remove the dead branches in late summer, but no action was taken before the monarchs arrived. That tree fully died in fall 2023 (Photo 8), the trail section was closed by Public Works for the remainder of the season, and the tree was taken down after the monarchs emigrated. Prompt action on large standing dead trees is essential for public safety and protection of existing live trees.

New tree plantings from 2020 will eventually fill in some wind gaps, as well as provide cluster sites in favorable microsites like the SE corner (Photo 9). The most recent plantings of cypress are well established and growing, helped by back-to-back wet years (Photo 12). Additional eucalyptus trees (E. ficifolia) were planted to seal gaps on the South Edge (Photo 14). There are still a few wind gaps that may need sealing, and these will be identified following a new structural assessment. Pine saplings, both planted and natural, are distributed in the interior. Natural pine recruits are the best saplings to encourage because they have developed appropriate root systems for their microsites, not affected by irrigation (which often leads to shallow root systems). But the long-term survival of pines is always in doubt with the presence of pitch canker disease.

PGCC 8-21-24

10 In 2024, it is expected that funding from the Monterey County Resource Conservation District will provide the means to initiate a state of the art structural and microclimate assessment, assess nectar resources, public outreach, development of a formal process for adaptive management, and infrastructure improvements as part of a long-term management plan that build on the existing plans and process.

Habitat photos, with documentation of location and photo orientation, of various parts of MGS are presented below with brief descriptions. A detailed analysis of the forest structure and microclimate is found in the 2011 Site Assessment and Management Plan (Weiss 2011).

Recent Management Actions in 2020- 2024
The major recent action in fall 2020 was plantings of boxed Monterey cypress that had been brought into MGS in 2019. Several cypress trees were planted in the open area south of the main entrance and kiosk, where 1 or 2 trees were recommended as cluster trees (Photo 9). More cypresses were planted farther west, south of the main trail.

Cypresses were also planted to the east of the nectar beds to build wind shelter (Photo 12) as the large acacia died back. Some bottlebrushes and eucalyptus trees were also planted. Some toyon and ceanothus were planted and caged. These trees are growing well, especially with back-to-back wet years.

Identified hazard trees and branches have been removed each year (Photo 18). The complete death of the large pine NW of the nectar beds necessitated closing the trail in December 2023 that connects to Grove Acre Ave. to protect public safety (Photos 7, 8).

The dangerous tree was removed after the monarchs emigrated in 2024.

The irrigation scheduling appears to be working better (Photos 28, 29). However, for some other trees, documentation has been lacking. There has been a tendency to overwater in past years.

The recommendation that new low-growing native nectar plants be established along the trail through the nectar beds has not been implemented. Suggested management of the existing nectar plants by selective pruning was not observed by June 2024.

The new tree plantings have not been mapped as of 2024, pending a new mapping effort for all trees, so a complete inventory is not available. A new map of MGS is a central element of a new management plan, as discussed in Appendix A of the 2023 report.

In 2022, the neighbors at 1070 Short removed a cypress in their backyard that was developing into a good windbreak tree. This emphasizes how important it is to have MGS as self-contained as possible in the absence of enforceable restrictions on neighboring properties.

PGCC 8-21-24

11 General 2024 Recommendations
The general recommendation is that good forestry practices be consistently implemented. These considerations and practices include:

1. This is not a “natural” forest. Direct thoughtful forestry and arborist prescriptions are necessary to maintain the microclimatic structure of wind shelter and moderate light that attracts and retains monarchs.

2. Manage stem densities through selective thinning to allow for the development of healthy individual trees. The overly dense eucalyptus planted in 2013 (without City authorization) in the SE corner have had 11 years of growth, and have developed into a stand of crowded, unhealthy trees (Photo 10). Some of these trees have died. The removal of selected trees will reduce canopy competition for light and reduce root competition for water and nutrients. The remaining trees will expand their canopies and grow faster, producing better wind shelter that will more than compensate for the short-term loss of sickly canopies. This work can be phased in over several years but should start in 2024.

An eventual minimum spacing of 10’ is the target. This also applies to some of the cypress stands behind the nectar beds, where thinning started in 2022 (Photo 15).

3. Slow down new plantings. Several dozen trees, including cypress, eucalyptus, and pines have been planted in recent years. The performance of these trees needs to be evaluated. A hiatus in new plantings, except in the very limited areas discussed below (the gap along the Driveway, Photos 5, 6), is recommended, along with more attention on taking care of the recently planted trees with wellplanned (deep and infrequent) irrigation when necessary. Trees should be weaned from irrigation after one or two years, so they develop deep root systems. Supplemental irrigation during intense droughts may be necessary.

4. Proactive hazard reduction of dead trees and branches that threaten people and other trees. The path is the obvious target, and several hazards were identified in 2023 (discussed below). But interior dead trees that do not have a trail as a target are a threat to other trees - the large tree that fell in 2023 in the Interior Zone took out a desirable healthy young pine tree (Photo 21). There is a large dead tree in the NE interior that will do the same thing when it falls (Habitat Photo 10).

5. Expedite the development of a new Long-term Adaptive Management Plan funded by the Monterey County RCD. Many outstanding issues will be addressed.

Specific 2024 short-term recommendations
The 2023 recommendations were not implemented in late summer because of delays in authorization and the early arrival of monarchs. Some of those recommended actions have been completed following the emigration of the monarchs in 2024. So, there will be substantial repetition from 2023.

PGCC 8-21-24

12 1. Remove ground fuels around the eucalyptus (Photos 1, 2, and 3). The fire (of unknown origin) on March 31, 2024, was a clarion warning. Accumulated eucalyptus bark, branches, and leaves on the ground along the South Boundary are a major fire hazard, and should be raked out, and dead lower branches removed. March 2024 was a wet cool month (see Figure 3) so fuel moisture was high and grasses were green. If the fire had ignited during the summer or fall, or even more frightening, during one of the few hot dry periods (like early October 2023 when temperatures exceeded 90°F, Figure 3) the results could have been catastrophic. This is the highest priority action and should be done ASAP.

2. Remove boxed trees from their current locations along the SE fence (Photo 4).

This was not completed in 2023 and may have been completed as of the writing of this report. They are currently rooting through the bottoms of the boxes.

These trees are too crowded relative to the large trees just west, too close to the fence, and unnecessary for wind shelter given the structures and the dense tree canopies developing to the further west of the large trees.

3. A hiatus on major tree plantings until a full inventory and structural assessment is completed as part of a new management plan (see Appendix A from 2023 report). There are plenty of new trees in the ground for now and their growth and health should be monitored closely as part of the new monitoring and adaptive management plan. Eventually, it may be necessary to thin some trees to encourage individual tree health.

4. Fill the Driveway gap. The exception to the hiatus on new tree plantings is that one or at most two cypresses should be planted in the gap along the hotel driveway just north of the kiosk where several potted trees were placed, but now have been removed, Photos 4, 5 and 6). Avoiding overplanting is essential for individual tree health and rapid growth to fill this gap. This will require cooperation with the hotel. Note also the new split rail fencing, a model for new fencing within MGS.

5. Refine monarch monitoring. The monarch monitoring program by the Museum is second to none in California – the weekly counts are invaluable in assessing the quality of the habitat. But a few simple refinements will increase the utility of the already excellent data collection. Note the monarch zone (Figure 4) during monitoring, in addition to any tree tags. Add in a cluster height estimate –a height reference scale could be added to a prominent tree along the main path, and perhaps elsewhere in the grove. Consistent monitoring of cluster height can reveal monarch reactions to weather and changing sun angles through the season.

6. Remove large standing dead trees and hazard branches (Photos 7, 8, 17, and 18). Several trees have been removed (Photos 9, 10). All dead and nearly dead branches within reach of the trail should be identified, inspected, and removed.

Near the hotel driveway in the NE part of the grove, a large dead standing pine (Photo 17) is poised to eventually fall and take out desirable trees, like what happened in 2023 Photos 23, 24, 25).

PGCC 8-21-24

13 7. Manage large, downed wood. Buck up the trunk of the large fallen pine so that the trunk is in contact with the ground. Cut smaller branches and either scatter, pile, or chip onsite (Photo 23, 24). Collect a good sample of the cones, to spread in bare areas where pine seedling recruitment is desired. Leave the upturned trunk as potential wildlife habitat (Photo 24). The major goal over time is to avoid excessive fuel accumulation. This tree took out a healthy mid-sized pine tree (Photo 25), serving as a lesson as to why large snags and structurally unsound trees near senescence need to be dealt with promptly.

8. Shrub plantings. Planting native shrubs like toyon along the south boundary with 1070 Short will help fill in the wind gaps produced by the removal of the cypress in the backyard and create a more attractive edge. Newly planted cypress and eucalyptus just inside MGS facing this gap will provide mid-story wind protection after a few years. Planting native shrubs along trails and in open understory areas can diversify the understory, but plants need protection from deer browsing. Understory shrubs also provide places for downed monarchs to climb onto.

9. Further thinning the cypress stand toward the NW corner (Photo 15) with removal of two more trees to be selected in the field, to allow for more room for the remaining trees while maintaining wind shelter. Two trees were thinned in 2022. The remaining trees will expand their canopies in the absence of competition and fill out the canopy openings.

10. Initiate thinning small eucalyptus in the SE corner (Photo 10, 20). The targets for now are the weakest crowded eucalyptus in the SE corner to allow for development of healthier remaining trees (Photo 10). Some of these trees are nearly dead, after 11 years of growth in crowded conditions. Plan on removing a few trees each year until a suitable density (10’ spacing) is achieved. Some of the trees immediately along the fence (Photo 20) should be thinned as well. The remaining trees will respond strongly to increased space and fill in the canopy rapidly, and individual trees will be much healthier and grow more rapidly.

11. Remove old stakes and cages (Photo 21). Many trees planted in the last decade still have stakes, collars and cages that are no longer needed. Each staked tree should be evaluated, and the stake/cage removed if no longer needed.

12. Manage nectar beds. A report on the nectar beds was produced recently (Regan Biological and Horticultural Consulting 2022) and provides excellent assessments and recommendations. The yellow Buddleia bushes should be pruned to refresh growth and force flowering in the fall (Photo 22). Half of the canopy should be pruned to a density determined by consultations with a master gardener or other horticultural expert. Some nectar beds support species that are not used by monarchs (such as the mallow) and should be replaced. Mexican sunflower (Tithonia rotundifolia, Monarch Photo 4) is an excellent addition for fall nectar – it is heavily used at the Gill Tract in Albany. Additional native nectar plantings in sunny trailside areas should be considered but should wait until the rope fencing is replaced with split rail.

PGCC 8-21-24

14 13. Manage pine seedlings. Maintain and cage pine saplings in the interior (Photo 16). Apply irrigation as needed in the first one or two years for establishment of planted pines – the emphasis should be on relatively few deep irrigations over the dry season, not frequent shallow irrigations. There are several natural recruits from seed east of the nectar beds that should be retained and encouraged. Trees that naturally recruit develop resilient root systems that explore the soil to great depth. Experiments with pine seeding on patches of freshly bare soil could develop a method for recruitment of healthy pines.

Collecting cones from fallen trees could provide a good source of seeds for such experiments.

14. Maintain the open area in the interior. (Photos 26, 27) Monarchs seek well lit sites, and the opening in the interior provides a gap that allows sunlight to penetrate to cluster trees north of the gap. Care should be taken in managing small trees so that this gap is maintained so that the cluster trees do not become too shaded.

15. Irrigation. The irrigation regime for new plantings be continued, but trees and shrubs should be weaned off irrigation after a few years once established. An evaluation of the irrigation program by the City arborist is recommended. Again, the emphasis should be on a few deep irrigations over the dry season, not frequent shallow irrigation. Documentation is important (Photos 28, 29)

16. Neighbors. Take a broader view of the site and work with neighbors. Trees in the surrounding neighborhoods can provide critical wind shelter. For example, a growing cypress south of MGS at 1070 Short Street was taken out leaving a gap in the wind shelter. New plantings of cypress, eucalyptus, and toyon within MGS will eventually seal this gap. The trees on the hotel property are also integral to the monarch habitat. Working out lines of communications and responsibilities will help site management progress more smoothly. The insecticide incident is a wake-up call for better education.
2023 Recommendations for George Washington Park
The bulk of the consideration of GWP is in the 2023 Appendix as part of the long-term management plan outline. No major actions, except immediate hazard tree management, are recommended until a fuller site assessment is completed under the Monterey RCD grant. Photos 30 and 31 show recent pine plantings in GWP One immediate issue is adjusting the irrigation schedule for the numerous pines that have been planted in recent years. Long-term survival and health of these pines requires that they grow roots to tap deep soil water once irrigation is stopped after several years.

Volunteers have devoted much time and effort in irrigating these trees, and it is important to have an effective irrigation schedule for deeper watering. The current irrigation schedule only provides shallow water, which encourages the pines to grow roots in the shallow wet zone at the expense of deeper roots. It is highly recommended that the watering regime be changed to deep irrigation so that each tree receives much PGCC 8-21-24

15 more water in each watering, with less frequent watering. The exact rotational schedule needs to be worked out, but as a start, twice the water at half the frequency is suggested, next reduced to three times the water at a third of the frequency, eventually to one or two deep waterings over the dry season until the trees can survive on natural rainfall.

Mr. Fuerst gave background to this appeal.

Mr. Gho outlined the status of the request, emphasizing that a Level 3 assessment should be performed since the previous report is now outdated. A new assessment would determine if the Norfolk pine’s roots could be cut or shaved to allow for repair to the wall. He also cited the benefits of the trees.

Property owner and petitioner Mr. Fox disputed the city’s stance, saying he felt the existing reports clearly meet code standards.

Public comment on this item:

Tony Ciani, Lisa Ciani, Thom Akeman and Inge Lorentzen Daumer all spoke in favor of saving the trees.

B. PG Museum of Natural History Performance Metrics
Lisa Max, Interim ED, reported the following highlights:

July 1-June 30, 2023. Daily admissions went up over the previous year to 16,000 with 60% being PGCC 8-21-24

Monterey County residents. A large number of field trips were offered, which also increased from the year prior. Most popular offering is Science Saturday with over 3,000 participants (October 2023 Spooky Science Saturday). Have reached over 2,000 people via offsite outreach.

Museum store has generated $32K in revenue. Have approximately 500 members generating $66K through financial year; this also includes business members who host meetings at the museum. High volunteer impact: 5,642 dedicated hours of service to the museums mission from 175 volunteers, a 50% increase over the year before and higher than pre-COVID. Total donations and grants in 2022-23 financial year of $1.117M. Largest community-supported funding project was MCGives Wonder on Wheels vehicle. Received best museum award from the Carmel Pine Cone. Programming has grown: preschool curiosity club, junior naturalists and conservationists, LiMPETs project also growing in participation. California Naturalist certification program also grew this year. Museum staff participated in several conferences to bring their expertise to the field. LIMPETS celebrated 20 years of community science; served 42 schools. Hard Core Natural History series was rebranded to Science on Tap; hosted an event on predators which drew 80 people, including younger attendees, which showed more age diversity than traditionally drawn by this program. Wonder and The Nature Exchange exhibits have dramatically increased attendance as well as two temporary exhibits: Illustrating Nature and A Call to Rise, associated with Walk of Remembrance.

Vice Chair Messman asked about the partnership with Monarch Joint Ventures; Interim ED Max confirmed that they are focused on conservation related to monarch butterflies.

Chair Tom recommends increased security at the next Walk of Remembrance event.

Vice Chair Messman reported that the museum’s Standards and Practices Committee has been put on hold while focused on hiring the ED and he anticipates work beginning soon.

Chair Tom announced that board members wishing a tour of the museum and/or light house should contact DDPW Joyce Halabi directly.

Chair Tom announced that the upcoming update of the strategic plan will require rescinding and amendment to the Operating Agreement if there is an update to the Foundation’s mission and strategic goals.

C. Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History Audited Financials Lisa Max, Interim ED, reported the following highlights: The museum did well in the FY 2021- 2022. Balance sheet showed total assets were valued at $4.4M. Very low liabilities because the museum has no loans or outstanding credit balances. Profit and loss statement shows total revenue without donor restrictions at $1.65M; total expenses for the fiscal year equals $1.293M. Overall investments and beneficial interests at the end of the period was $2.6M. Two rounds of paycheck protection loan were forgiven.

Vice Chair Messman asked about a “rainy day fund” and interim ED Max responded that there is a reserve of $400K.

PG Museum of Natural History FY23/24 Business Plan
Lisa Max, Interim ED, reported the following highlights: The plan was put together by Susan Wolfe, Development Director, and goes along with the 2023-2024 budget and was approved by PGCC 8-21-24

the Museum Foundation Board. Key initiatives include enhanced fund development and museum membership, including outreach and engagement in respect to donor engagement.

Brought back Night Owl this year and are focusing on bigger and better member events as well as bringing back re-engagement of donors, including the Monarch Society for high-level donors.

Also focusing heavily on being an employer of choice for museum professionals, including better pay, working environments, and benefits for staff. Biggest focus for community engagement will be the Wonder on Wheels initiative. Next big exhibit will be a redesign of the Native Plant Garden, the focus of the MCGives campaign this year. Also entering 140th year; will have a temporary exhibit celebrating this anniversary in December; will showcase the Chautauqua history. Very focused on strategic planning and have received public comments on the plan, expecting to finalize and begin implementation of the plan on January 1, 2024.

C. PG Museum of Natural History FY23/24 Collections & Exhibit Strategic Plan Chris Green, DCE, reported the following highlights: Museum Standards and Trajectories section of the plan includes developing an engaging interpretive voice and content. Also looking at engaging descendent communities in community curation. Unfortunately, the collections don’t currently reflect local indigenous communities; looking at national engagement. Collections manager Nate King estimates that only about 3% of collections are on display; looking for ways to make the collections accessible through programs, tours, etc. Long term visions and goals include making the research library more accessible to the public. Organization of collections storage is critical; also looking at deaccessioning and exchange as options for collections.

Looking to revitalize the Bird Room in a way that reproduces environments and situating collections within them. Have submitted an IMLS grant for an interpretive plan to enable an integrated approach to on-site and off-site, through programs; working to be intentional about an interpretive message that is relevant to Pacific Grove residents as well as communities farther out in the county. Working to co-design the garden exhibit with local communities.

Wonder on Wheels is moving forward; have purchased a vehicle and hoping to unveil final designs to the public later this year. Policies to be worked on in anticipation of American Alliance of Museum reaccreditation, especially around collection management policies. Also working to develop a temporary exhibition schedule to keep the exhibits fresh for repeat visitors.

Board member Foote asked about the criteria for accessioning objects; Green responded that there needs to be mission alignment, provenance, and other criteria met before accession.

Chair Tom asked if Wonder on Wheels is a sub-brand of the Wonder exhibit; Green responded that they are seen as separate because the ages and audiences are different and the level of facilitation also differs.

F. Temporary Collections Evaluations - Accession & Disposal Chris Green, DCE, explained that there are temporarily-held objects collected as early as the 1980s, presumed to have come into the museum when it was a city-run entity.

Green recommended the following actions:

1. Accession 88 objects into the museum's permanent collection.

2. Disposal of 100 objects determined not eligible to enter the permanent collection.

PGCC 8-21-24

Vice Chair Messman asked how the objects would be disposed of. Green confirmed that the museum will follow museum policies and museum ethical standards. Green suggested that the City Public Works could collect the objects and dispose of them as appropriate.

Vice Chair Messman motioned to access the 88 objects and dispose of the 100 objects; Foote 2 nd
the motion. The motion passed unanimously.

G. PG Museum of Natural History - Collections Care Report Chris Green, Director of Collections & Exhibits, reported the following highlights: 366 new records added for objects that already existed in the collection. A temporary full-time employee made significant strides on imaging and inventorying. Completed a Collections Assessment Program; a big focus of that report Green anticipates will be a recommendation to improve environment controls, including water proofing the collections storage area in the basement, which may entail extensive excavation and removal of the outdoor planters. Estimated cost ~$250K and is not in the FY23-24 budget.

Vice Chair Messman asked about vibration monitoring during the construction project taking place across the street; Green confirmed that pottery objects have been prepared for any seismic activity. If it damages the wall in any sense that could be concerning. Board member Allen-Greil asked about whether the responsibility for vibration monitoring lies with the private entity performing construction near the city’s collection and a building of historical significance; Green stated that the museum thus far has been responsible for its own monitoring and has received no interest from the entities performing construction in sharing in that responsibility.

G. PG Museum Facilities Management Plan
Joyce Halabi, DDPW, reported the following highlights: completed the roof repair project above the bird room.

G. Museum Board Planning Calendar
Chair Tom, presented the 2024 Museum Board Planning Calendar for approval.

Vice Chair Messman moved to correct the dates to February 13, May 14, August 13, and November 12, 2024 and to approve the calendar. Allen-Greil seconded. The motion passed unanimously.

Agenda No. 11 A

CITY OF PACIFIC GROVE
300 Forest Avenue, Pacific Grove, California 93950
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Sandra Kandell, City Clerk
MEETING DATE: August 21, 2024
SUBJECT: City of Pacific Grove's Conflict of Interest Code CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION

1. Request the City Attorney read the title of the ordinance;

2. Motion to waive further reading of the ordinance;
Introduce and hold first reading of an ordinance to amend Pacific Grove Municipal Code (PGMC) Chapter 2.40, Conflict of Interest, to account for the addition, deletion, and modification of positions listed as “designated employees”; determine that, for the purposes of the City of Pacific Grove’s (City) Conflict Code, the City is the “agency;” approve the updated Conflict Code; and

3. Direct that publication of the ordinance will be satisfied by publication of a summary approved by the City Attorney.

4. DISCUSSION
The Political Reform Act of 1974 (Act) requires, among other things, that local governments adopt and maintain a Conflict of Interest Code, Gov. Code §87300. Agencies must designate all positions that make or participate in the making of governmental decisions, and assign specific disclosure categories to each position. The Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC or Commission), created under the Act, assists state and local agencies in developing and enforcing conflict-of-interest codes.

On December 20, 2006, by Resolution No. 06-032, the City Council adopted a Conflict of Interest Code.

The Act requires every agency that has adopted a Conflict Code to review its Code on at least a biennial basis (to be conducted each even numbered year) to ensure the Code reflects the organization’s current staffing, and submit an amended Code, if necessary. Id.,§ 87306.5. The Conflict Code was last reviewed and amended in 2022. A current review of the City’s Conflicts Code revealed no revisions are required as there have been no additions to positions since the last review in 2022.

The proposed ordinance and 2024 Agency Notice included with this agenda report reflect these changes.

OPTIONS
Provide alternate direction.

Agenda No. 12 A

CITY OF PACIFIC GROVE
300 Forest Avenue, Pacific Grove, California 93950
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Matt Mogensen, City Manager
MEETING DATE: August 21, 2024
SUBJECT: Motion to Authorize City Manager to Issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Cannabis Consulting Services
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council authorize City Manager to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for cannabis consulting services to assist staff with the implementation of the cannabis licensing and zoning ordinances adopted by the City Council.

DISCUSSION
Pacific Grove voters approved Measures M and N at the November 8, 2022, general election. Measure M was an advisory measure asking the voters the following question: “Should the Pacific Grove City Council be authorized to amend the Municipal Code to allow retail sales of medical or recreational cannabis, limited to one single location within the City, at a location no closer than 1000 feet from any existing licensed Daycare/Preschools, Youth Center, and Schools, to engage in commercial cannabis activities?” Measure N established a tax on cannabis businesses at the rate of 6% of gross receipts from the retail sale of cannabis (storefront and delivery sales).

As a result of the approval of Measures M and N, the City Council directed the City Manager and City Attorney to create a cannabis licensing program to authorize one cannabis retail storefront to operate in the City. Draft licensing and zoning ordinances were prepared and vetted through a public process that involved the consideration of the ordinances at several meetings of the Planning Commission and City Council. The ordinances were adopted by the Council in December 2023.

The ordinances create a two-step regulatory framework that requires a proposed cannabis retailer to first obtain a license to operate from the City and then a conditional use permit. This allows the City to have regulations in place that address both the use (conditional use permit) and the user (license). One license will be available to operate a storefront retail location, consistent with the Measure M advisory measure.

Additionally, licenses will be available to medicinal cannabis retailers proposing to operate delivery-only with no walk-in customers allowed, consistent with SB 1186 which went into effect on January 1, 2024.

The cannabis licensing ordinance calls for administrative rules to be adopted by resolution of the City Council detailing the application and license award process. Consultant services are needed to assist PGCC 8-21-24

City staff with the application process as it is anticipated to be a time-consuming endeavor. City staff believes it is best to retain a consultant before finalizing the draft administrative rules for presentation to the City Council so that the consultant can provide input on the application process based on their experience.

OPTIONS
Authorize City Manager to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for cannabis consulting services to assist staff with the implementation of the cannabis licensing and zoning ordinances adopted by the City Council. The City Council may take alternative action, but that is not recommended as the review and vetting of cannabis business applications will be a highly technical process that requires a level of knowledge regarding state cannabis law and best practices for cannabis business operations, security, and inventory.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

There will be no net financial impact associated with this item as fees will be established for cannabis business licenses that will incorporate the costs associated with the cannabis business consultant charges per application. This yet to be established fee will be proposed for the City Council's consideration after a consultant is selected and their application review costs are known.

FOCUSED PRIORITY AREA: Not Applicable.
