78-Sewer Lateral Loans Budget set for 3 new sewer loans for each FY Employee Position Allocation Table Adjustment
The current budget provides for an employee allocation plan for the Community Development Department (CDD) that includes two (2) full-time equivalent (FTE) associate planners and (1) principal planner. Currently, the positions are filled by two associate planners and one senior planner that is underfilling the principal planner allocation. Staff has analyzed the changing demands and needs of the department and determined that an adjustment to the position allocations for planners could be more efficient and save costs of outsourcing higher level work.
The proposed budget amendment includes reclassifying one FTE associate planner position to one FTE senior planner position. With the principal planner position being under filled at the senior planner level, the reallocation adjustment will result in one associate planner FTE and two senior planner FTE’s in CDD. This change will allow CDD to address community goals, service improvements housing element programs, and other projects needed to be accomplished to meet mandates and better support the community. The change would also reduce consultant services costs.
In line with a Community Goal adopted by the City Council to review all permit processes to eliminate barriers to housing and economic development and coupled with the recently approved housing element, which contains numerous goals, policies, and programs to provide diverse, high quality housing choices appropriate for residents at all income levels, a staff member working at the senior planner level is needed. The staff member serving in this senior planner level will have the demonstrated ability to evaluate and develop improvements to all levels of the City’s permit processes including developing a platform where planning applications can be submitted and paid for on-line, establishing a more timely and direct line between the point of project submittal and assignment of project to its manager, monitor the work load of the planning staff for efficiencies, assure compliance with laws regulating project processing timelines, introduce steps and provide training to achieve efficient pre-analysis of projects so that the appropriate application and fees are submitted for PGCC 3-18-26
efficient pre-analysis of projects so that the appropriate application and fees are submitted for development projects. The senior planner in this role will also, in conjunction with the director and housing division manager, be instrumental in achieving completion and compliance with the twenty (20) programs of the recently approved housing element that further housing opportunities in the City.
Implementation of these programs require an intuitive and forward thinking staff member who can prepare the procedures, internal codes, and policies that will result in the varied elements that allow the City to make progress on the Housing Element programs and result in, but not be limited to, achieving the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), preservation of affordable housing units, monitoring whether the sites in the housing site inventory can fulfill their identified housing potential, the redevelopment of a shopping center, zoning code amendments, identification of a preferred housing site, and providing guidance to citizens on accessory dwelling units (ADU’s). It is also anticipated that the staff person serving in this capacity will support economic development efforts in the City and be a resource for those seeking to open or modify their commercial establishments.
OPTIONS
1. Make no adjustments
2. Provide alternative direction to staff
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The proposed expenditure adjustments for the General Fund total $294,000, which will be funded by additional projected revenues during the current fiscal year. The proposed expenditure adjustments for other funds total approximately $1.74 million, which will be funded by existing reserves in the funds noted above. The financial impact of reallocating one Associate Planner to Senior Planner will cost approximately $14,600 annually in salary and approximately $4,394 in benefits and roll ups, all totaling approximately $19,000 additional in staffing costs per year. However, as mentioned above, the reallocation of a planner from Associate to Senior Planner will allow for previously contracted work to be done in house saving consultant contract costs. The additional $19,000 in staffing costs will be fully covered by the reduced expenses in consultant service fees.
FOCUSED PRIORITY AREA: Not Applicable.

Agenda No. 9 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: March 18, 2026
SUBJECT: Letter of Support for SB 922 (Laird) Vehicles: local agency charges: use of streets or highways
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378
RECOMMENDATION
Approve Authorizing the City Manager to Issue a Letter of Support for SB 922 (Laird) Vehicles: local agency charges: use of streets or highways.
DISCUSSION
Cities are responsible for maintaining most local streets and roads. Heavy service vehicles, including garbage, recycling, and green waste collection trucks, regularly travel on local streets and contribute to pavement wear and deterioration. Historically, cities have addressed these impacts through service-related rates, fees, or franchise arrangements tied to the provision of those services.
Recently, a court decision has created uncertainty regarding these long-standing practices. As a result, cities are facing increased legal challenges to existing service-related fees, placing street maintenance funding at risk and creating uncertainty for local governments attempting to responsibly manage and maintain their transportation infrastructure.
SB 922 would help address this uncertainty by clarifying that restrictions on local charges apply only to weight-based charges imposed for the privilege of using streets or highways. The bill further makes clear that fees for the provision of public services may recover the cost of street maintenance and repair associated with providing such services. This clarification would help reduce unnecessary litigation and allow cities to continue maintaining safe and reliable local streets.
OPTIONS
Direct staff to take alternative action.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact as a result of issuing a letter of support for the proposed legislation.

RE: SB 922 (Laird) Vehicles: local agency charges: use of streets or highways.
Notice of SUPPORT (As Introduced on January 28, 2026)
Dear Chair Durazo,
The City of Pacific Grove supports SB 922, which would provide needed clarity regarding a local agency’s ability to recover the cost of maintaining and repairing streets used in the delivery of essential public services.
Cities are responsible for maintaining most local streets and roads. Heavy service vehicles, including garbage, recycling, and green waste collection trucks, regularly travel on local streets and contribute to pavement wear and deterioration. Historically, cities have addressed these impacts through service-related rates, fees, or franchise arrangements tied to the provision of those services.
Recently, a court decision has created uncertainty regarding these longstanding practices. As a result, cities are facing increased legal challenges to existing service-related fees, placing street maintenance funding at risk and creating uncertainty for local governments attempting to responsibly manage and maintain their transportation infrastructure.
SB 922 would help address this uncertainty by clarifying that restrictions on local charges apply only to weight-based charges imposed for the privilege of using streets or highways. The bill further makes clear that fees for the provision of public services may recover the cost of street maintenance and repair associated with providing such services. This clarification would help reduce unnecessary litigation and allow cities to continue maintaining safe and reliable local streets.
For these reasons, the City of Pacific Grove supports SB 922.

Sincerely,
Matt Mogensen

Agenda No. 9 B
CITY OF PACIFIC GROVE
300 Forest Avenue, Pacific Grove, California 93950
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Jon Biggs, Community Development Director
MEETING DATE: March 18, 2026
SUBJECT: Housing Element Annual Progress Report.
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378
RECOMMENDATION
Motion to receive and accept the City's Housing Element Annual Progress Report (HE APR), which will be submitted to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the California Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (LCI).
DISCUSSION
State laws require that cities and counties submit the annual progress report on the status of their General Plan's Housing Element to their legislative bodies (City Council). The HE APR is prepared using forms provided by HCD and the information contained in the report allows HCD to track the production of new housing in the City and across the State. The attached HE APR fulfills the statutory requirements by providing information on the City's progress toward its Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) and the status of the Housing Element (HE) programs. As the City Council is aware, it has approved the HE but the State has yet to certify it. Even so, reporting on the status of the approved programs is still a requirement of state law.
This HE APR is being provided to the City Council prior to it being submitted to the noted State Offices, which must receive the report by April 1, 2026.
OPTIONS
1. Receive report.
2. Decline to receive report.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Receiving this report will not result in a significant fiscal impact.
FOCUSED PRIORITY AREA: Community Development

General Plan Annual Progress Report
for the 2025 Reporting (Calendar) Year
for the City of Pacific Grove, a Charter City
Prepared for the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (LCI) and the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) in March 2026 I. Introduction and Date of Presentation
Government Code Section 65400 mandates that certain cities and all 58 counties submit an annual progress report (APR) on the status of the General Plan and progress on its implementation to the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (LCI / formerly the Office of Planning and Research or OPR) and the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) by April 1 of each year. This document meets this requirement for the City of Pacific Grove. The General Plan Annual Progress Report for the 2025 Reporting (Calendar) Year will be presented to the Pacific Grove City Council on March 18, 2026, and will be submitted to LCI and HCD on or before April 1, 2026.
II. 1994 General Plan
The City Council of the City of Pacific Grove adopted Resolution 6423 on October 5, 1994, adopting the General Plan (Plan) and associated maps and figures. This Plan superseded the City’s previous 1973 General Plan and incorporated as its Coastal Land Use Element, the certified 1989 Land Use Plan now superseded by the March 11, 2020 certified Local Coastal Program.
Prior to 2025, the City of Pacific Grove had not undertaken a comprehensive update to any elements of its 1994 General Plan other than its Housing Element (HE) which was previously adopted in March 2016 for the effective years 2015-2023 (5th Cycle).
At a special meeting of the City Council held on December 17, 2025, council adopted the 6th Cycle Housing Element updates, focused update of the General Plan for Housing Element consistency, and the Health and Safety Element to ensure internal consistency with the HE and state law. Further details of these updates/amendments are outlined in Section VI of this report.
PGCC 3-18-26
III. Housing Element APR
At a special meeting of the City Council held on December 17, 2025, council adopted the 6th Cycle Housing Element updates as required by California Government Code Section 65581 and is awaiting HCD certification. The 2025 HE APR will be submitted separately to HCD.
IV. Compliance with LCI’s 2017 General Plan Guidelines
The City’s 1994 General Plan contains the required elements per the LCI’s 2017 Guidelines and California Government Code Section 65302 (the City’s Element title is listed in parentheses after the mandated chapter title):
Land Use
Circulation (Transportation)
Housing
Conservation (Natural Resources)
Open Space (Parks & Recreation)
Noise (imbedded within the Health & Safety Element)
Safety (Health & Safety)
In addition to the required Elements above, the City’s 1994 General Plan contains the following optional Elements:
Historic & Archaeological Resources
Urban Structures & Design
Public Facilities
Even under today’s rigorous mandates, Pacific Grove does not meet the definition of “disadvantaged community” (Health & Safety Code, Section 39711) that would trigger the preparation of an Environmental Justice Element.
The City also has a certified Local Coastal Program (LCP) which contains a Land Use Plan (LUP) and an Implementation Plan (IP / Pacific Grove Municipal Code Chapter 23.90). The LUP constitutes the Coastal Land Use Element of the General Plan.
In the 1980s and 1990s when the City’s General Plan was being drafted, reviewed, and adopted, there were no requirements for the consideration of disadvantaged communities (environmental justice), consultation with Native American tribes (SB 18), or collaboration with military facilities. The City of Pacific Grove is a very archaeologically sensitive area, and is bounded to the south and east by the U.S. Army Presidio of Monterey. Since 1994, the City has worked very closely with our military neighbors and, even more so, with the Ohlone Costanoan-Esselen Nation (OCEN) and Esselen Tribe of Monterey County (ETMC) PGCC 3-18-26
to ensure that development within the City is consistent with the interests and goals of these important stakeholders.
V. Land Use Priorities
a. Housing - The City has completed its update to the Housing Element with adoption by City Council at a special meeting held on December 17, 2025. The City will be implementing multiple programs to facilitate housing development and preservation as identified in the adopted 6th Cycle Housing Element.
b. Water - The Monterey Peninsula has experienced a “regulatory drought” for the past 30+ years which has heavily impacted development. The State Water Resources Control Board has limited the issuance of new water meters through a cease and desist order levied on the area’s water provider. Although the City is geographically small, and development is constrained by other factors, the restriction on water meter issuance has effectively resulted in a moratorium on large new in-fill projects where a water entitlement did not already exist.
VI. Adjusted Goals, Policies, Objectives
Updates and amendments to the Housing Element, Land Use Element, and Health and Safety Element as adopted by City Council on December 17, 2025, are outlined below:
Housing Element Update
Pacific Grove’s 2023–2031 Housing Element provides capacity to meet the City's Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) of 1,125 units across all income levels. This includes planning for 362 very-low, 237 low, 142 moderate, and 384 above-moderate income units for the 2023-2031 planning period. The Housing Element outlines a comprehensive strategy to accommodate this growth through updated policies, programs, and detailed sites inventory.
The updated housing element introduced multiple programs to facilitate housing development and preservation. For example, Program 1 (Housing Preservation and Rehabilitation) continues the City’s loan program to assist low-income residents with home repairs. Other programs encourage accessory dwelling unit (ADU) development, incentivize affordable housing, and streamline permitting. In addition, programs commit to pursuing funding and partnerships for affordable housing, updating development standards, and removing governmental constraints to meet state housing law requirements.
The updated housing element also provides an inventory of vacant and underutilized sites PGCC 3-18-26
that can accommodate the RHNA plus a buffer. These housing opportunity sites are distributed throughout the City, focusing on infill locations near transit, services, and along commercial corridors. Notably, the plan relies on underused commercial parcels (Downtown and Forest Hill areas) being rezoned for mixed-use housing, as well as some City-owned or underdeveloped parcels. The Housing Element demonstrates that Pacific Grove can accommodate its RHNA of 1,125 units through the sites inventory and planned zoning changes.
The sites inventory provides data on each site’s potential unit yield, factoring in realistic development probabilities. In total, the identified sites (plus expected ADUs and pipeline projects) furnish a capacity above the RHNA – roughly on the order of 1,350+ units, which includes a buffer beyond 1,125 to account for contingencies. The State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) recommends a buffer of 15-30% in order to comply with State law including the "no net loss" requirements. The element also analyzes population and employment trends for 2031, forecasting that if the housing goals are met, Pacific Grove’s housing stock and population will modestly increase to support local workforce and family needs. Importantly, the City has verified that infrastructure (water supply, sewer, etc.) can support the additional housing growth within this cycle, and it has included programs to monitor infrastructure capacity and pursue improvements if needed.
Consistent with state law, the Housing Element incorporates an analysis for Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH), which examines fair housing issues and access to housing opportunities in Pacific Grove. It evaluates factors such as segregation patterns, income disparities, and displacement risk. The sites selected for new housing are dispersed in a manner to promote fair housing choice – for instance, higher-density sites are not concentrated in one neighborhood but in various parts of the City, including high resource areas. The Housing Element includes programs to advance fair housing, such as outreach and education for tenants and landlords, continued support for the regional fair housing service provider, and annual monitoring of potential housing discrimination or displacement. These actions are intended to ensure the City’s housing growth is equitable and inclusive, aligning with state and federal fair housing requirements.
Overall, the Housing Element’s revisions are geared toward creating opportunities for housing at all income levels through proactive rezoning, development incentives, and removal of barriers, while ensuring consistency with State housing laws and affirmatively furthering fair housing in the community.
Land Use Element Amendments
To maintain internal consistency with the updated Housing Element, Pacific Grove’s Land Use Element of the General Plan was amended with targeted changes to land use PGCC 3-18-26
designations, density standards, and maps. The revisions focus on enabling higher density residential development in appropriate areas and reflect the new housing sites in the City’s long-range land use policy framework. Key amendments include:
Land Use Designation Changes: Certain General Plan land use categories were updated or added to accommodate housing. For example, areas that were previously designated purely for commercial use (such as the Downtown and Forest Hill commercial districts) were amended to allow mixed-use that allows residential uses by right. These changes ensure the General Plan land use map mirrors the Housing Element’s strategy of siting new housing in commercial corridors and other underutilized sites. All told, the Land Use Element amendments will ensure zoning and land use designations are consistent with the Housing Element’s policies and the rezonings it calls for.
Density and Intensity Standards: The revisions adjust certain development intensity standards to support higher density housing development. For residential land use classifications, the allowable densities (dwelling units per acre) were increased in line with Housing Element programs. As an example, the maximum density in the High-Density Residential category were raised (e.g. from around 20–30 units/acre up to a higher figure that qualifies as suitable for affordable housing development under state law). Similarly, new Mixed-Use designations stipulate residential density ranges to accommodate multistory mixed-use projects. These changes are aimed at achieving “default” densities that the state deems appropriate for lower-income housing (often 20 or 30 units/acre in smaller cities). The Land Use Element change also incorporates needed policy language to support these density increases – for instance, emphasizing infill development, transit-oriented development in mixed-use areas, and the allowance of multi-family housing in zones that were formerly commercial-only. By updating density standards, Pacific Grove’s General Plan is consistent with the rezoning/ upzoning efforts driven by the Housing Element, thereby legitimizing higher-density projects envisioned for the 2023–2031 period.
General Plan Map Updates: An updated General Plan Land Use Map reflects changes to the allowed land use in two areas to accommodate higher density residential development that is also facilitated by changes to the zoning designation for these sites. These map changes make the General Plan a true blueprint of the City’s intended land uses, clearly identifying where higher-density housing is expected. The revised maps are an important reference that assist in understanding where new housing potential exists.
Health and Safety Element Updates
Pacific Grove’s Health and Safety Element is being comprehensively updated to address contemporary hazards and meet new state requirements. The Health and Safety Element revisions add updated data, maps, and policies on emergency preparedness, natural PGCC 3-18-26
disasters, and climate resilience. In particular, the City is aligning the Health and Safety Element with State regulations that mandate new considerations for evacuation routes and climate adaptation.
Major areas of revision include:
Evacuation Planning and Emergency Access: The Health and Safety Element now includes detailed information on the City’s evacuation routes and procedures for emergency evacuation. In compliance with State regulations, the City has identified residential areas in hazard zones that have only a single evacuation route and evaluated how to improve emergency access in those neighborhoods.
The element maps out primary evacuation corridors (such as major roads out of Pacific Grove) and discusses their capacity and potential choke points. Pursuant to State regulations, an evacuation route analysis was conducted – assessing the safety, capacity, and viability of evacuation routes under scenarios like wildfires or tsunamis. The Health and Safety Element outlines evacuation plans for various disasters, designates evacuation centers, and includes policies to ensure routes remain passable (e.g. vegetation management along roadways and inter-agency coordination to handle traffic during an evacuation). The update places new emphasis on maintaining at least two emergency egress routes for all large residential developments, or, where that is not feasible due to geography, enhancing the existing route’s resiliency and communication systems. Overall, residents will find clearer guidance on evacuation zones and the City’s commitment to improve emergency access, consistent with state law mandates.
Wildfire Hazard Updates: The revised Health and Safety Element addresses wildfire risks using the latest data and mapping from state and regional authorities. It recognizes that while Pacific Grove is largely urbanized, there are interfaces with the forested areas (such as the Del Monte Forest area near the City’s boundary) that pose wildfire danger. Updated text describes the Fire Hazard Severity Zones affecting parts of Pacific Grove and the frequency of wildland fires in the region. New policies call for enforcing defensible space around structures, supporting vegetation management in high-risk open space (in coordination with CalFire and neighboring jurisdictions), and ensuring adequate water pressure for firefighting. The element also highlights evacuation considerations for wildfire specifically – identifying neighborhoods adjacent to wildland areas that might need special evacuation plans. For example, wooded upland areas on the outskirts are noted as having elevated wildfire risk, and plans are included to conduct community outreach on wildfire preparedness in those areas. By integrating the Monterey Peninsula Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan findings, the Health and Safety Element ensures consistency with broader wildfire mitigation efforts.
PGCC 3-18-26
Tsunami and Coastal Hazards: Given Pacific Grove’s coastal location, the Health and Safety Element now contains an updated section on tsunami hazard and coastal storm flooding.
According to mapping by the California Geological Survey, most of Pacific Grove’s shoreline lies within a designated Tsunami Hazard Area. The amended element includes the official tsunami inundation map for the City, showing areas that could be flooded in a worstcase scenario. It discusses warning systems (sirens, emergency alerts) and evacuation routes for low-lying neighborhoods (for instance, routing evacuees to higher ground inland or to specified safe zones). Policies are introduced to continue public education on tsunami response and to coordinate with the National Weather Service’s Tsunami Warning Center for early alerts. Additionally, the Health and Safety Element covers coastal erosion and sealevel rise threats (which can exacerbate storm surge and high tide flooding). While Pacific Grove’s cliffs provide some protection, certain beach areas and infrastructure are identified as vulnerable to future sea-level rise. The updated element recommends monitoring erosion rates and planning for shoreline protection or managed retreat where applicable. By addressing tsunami and coastal storm hazards with current data and clear policies, the Health and Safety Element ensures the City’s emergency planning is robust for these lowprobability but high-impact events.
Climate Change Vulnerability: In line with State requirements, the Health and Safety Element now integrates a Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment and corresponding adaptation strategies. The City evaluated how climate change may intensify local hazards – including increased wildfire risk from hotter, drier conditions; greater coastal flooding from sea-level rise; and potential stress on water and power systems from extreme heat or drought. The element summarizes key findings (for example, identifying which neighborhoods or critical facilities are most vulnerable to these climate-related hazards). It then lays out climate adaptation policies to build resilience. These include actions such as incorporating sea-level rise projections into future land use decisions along the coast, expanding green infrastructure to manage stormwater from intense rain events, improving the grid’s resilience to heatwaves (through backup generators or microgrids for emergency facilities), and partnering with regional agencies on climate mitigation and adaptation efforts. The updated policies also cross-reference the City’s Climate Action Plan and the regional hazard mitigation plan to ensure consistency. By doing this, Pacific Grove’s General Plan meets State requirements and formally address climate adaptation. In summary, the Health and Safety Element commits the City to continuous monitoring of climate vulnerabilities and implementing strategies to protect the community’s safety in the face of long-term climatic changes.
New and Revised Safety Policies: Throughout the Health and Safety Element, many policies and implementation measures have been added or strengthened to reflect current best practices and legal mandates. For example, new policies require regular updates to the PGCC 3-18-26
City’s Emergency Operations Plan and conducting periodic multi-agency evacuation drills for scenarios like wildfire and tsunami. There are policies ensuring that new development in high hazard areas (fire zones, flood zones) include adequate emergency access and construction standards for resilience. The element also includes commitments to coordinate with neighboring jurisdictions (Monterey, Pebble Beach/County) for emergency response, recognizing that disasters don’t stop at City limits. Another set of policies is aimed at community education and warning systems – supporting programs like Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training for residents, maintaining sirens and alert systems, and ensuring residents (especially vulnerable populations) are aware of evacuation procedures. By aligning these policies with state laws, the Health and Safety Element revisions bring Pacific Grove’s General Plan into compliance with the latest safety requirements. The result is a more robust, proactive plan that enhances public safety and emergency preparedness for the City.
VII. Studies and Activities Intended to Advance the Implementation of the GP The Housing Element calls for amending the zoning code for the Commercial Downtown and Commercial Forest Hill districts, to allow higher-density residential or mixed-use development. These zoning amendments establish “by-right” housing opportunities at target densities sufficient for lower-income housing (in line with state default density standards).
Development standards such as height limits, floor-area ratios, and parking requirements (see Municipal Code Section 23.31.040 for amendments to site development standards in the commercial and industrial zoning districts) were updated to facilitate multi-family and mixeduse projects. These modifications to the Zoning Code achieve required minimum densities and comply with recent State housing mandates (e.g. laws on accessory dwelling units, lowbarrier navigation centers, and objective design standards). Additionally, the City will be implementing Objective Development & Design Standards (ODDS) to implement Housing Element and General Plan programs, policies, and initiatives.
VIII. Additional Content
In an effort to keep up with climate change and the associated likely impacts related to sea level rise, the Community Development Department (CDD) obtained grant funding from the Coastal Commission in 2022 to undertake updates to the Coastal Hazards policies of the certified Local Coastal Program (LCP). On May 21, 2025, the City Council acknowledged receipt of the California Coastal Commission resolution approving the City of Pacific Grove Local Coastal Program Amendment (Number LCP-3-PGR-24-0065-1). At the June 4, 2025, regular meeting of City Council, the City adopted the updates to the Coastal Hazards policies of the certified Local Coastal Program (LCP).

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: Daniel Gho, Public Works Director/Deputy City Manager MEETING DATE: March 18, 2026
SUBJECT: Ordinance to Amend Section 16.52.020 “Speed Zones” of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378
RECOMMENDATION
Introduce and hold first reading of an ordinance to amend sections 16.52.020 “speed zones” of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code.
1. Direct that publication of the ordinance will be satisfied by publication of a summary approved by the City Attorney.
2. DISCUSSION
The California Vehicle Code requires that speed limits be established on the basis of an “Engineering and Traffic Survey” conducted in accordance with procedures adopted by the State Department of Transportation if they are to be enforceable by the use of radar or other electronic devices. These Engineering and Traffic Surveys are required to be updated every 7 years to continue the use of radar enforcement and can be extended an additional 3 years, for a total of 10 years, if conditions within a community remain relatively unchanged. The speed limits adopted by City of Pacific Grove Ordinance No. 16-003 in February of 2016, and enacted as Section 16.52.010 and Section 16.52.020 of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code, were extended to March of 2026 in a Speed Zone Survey Evaluation Report prepared by the City’s Traffic Engineer.
The Engineering and Traffic Surveys used to establish the speed limits contained in the current Municipal Code were based on data collected in 2015. To update the current code, speed survey data was collected in November and December of 2025, along with January of 2026, for preparation of the special speed zone surveys used to establish the speed limits recommended in this report. Adoption of the speed limits recommended in the attached Ordinance will allow the Police Department to use radar for the enforcement of speed limits on the listed streets.
In general, the speed limit of a roadway is set at the nearest five mile per hour interval where eighty-five percent of the vehicles travel at or below the speed known as the 85th percentile or critical speed. Based on Engineering and Traffic Surveys, speed limits can be adjusted downward depending on special conditions, the physical characteristics of the road, such as abrupt changes in horizontal and/or vertical alignment, and pavement width, so as to enhance its safety. In order for speeding violations to be enforceable in court, the City must have current speed zone certifications on file at the traffic court.
PGCC 3-18-26
enforceable in court, the City must have current speed zone certifications on file at the traffic court.
As noted in the Citywide Engineering & Traffic Survey (Attachment #1), it is recommended to modify, consolidate, or lower the posted speed limit on 11 roadway segments, based on observed roadway characteristics and documented conditions.

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: March 18, 2026
SUBJECT: Presentation of Revenue Measure Survey Results by True North Research and Discussion of Next Steps
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378
RECOMMENDATION
1. Receive a presentation of the Revenue Measure Survey Results.
Authorize staff and the consultant team to proceed with Phases 2 and 3 of the previously approved and reauthorized scope of work.
2. 3. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
DISCUSSION
On November 19, 2025, the City Council considered and approved a Professional Services Agreement with Props and Measures and their sub-consultant, True North Research to perform the following four phases of work:
Phase 1 - Conduct polling of Pacific Grove residents to determine: their knowledge and understanding of the City’s fiscal constraints; to understand their perception of the City’s services and infrastructure; understand what outside external and internal factors would impact their support of a potential revenue measure; and, to determine overall potential revenue measure viability.
Phase 2 and 3 - Assist City staff with communicating the City’s fiscal needs to address resident expectations and basic infrastructure needs.
Phase 4 - Assist with developing a revenue measure that seeks funding approval that services to address communicated desires of the voters.
This agreement was revisited and reaffirmed by the City Council on January 21, 2026.
Phase 1 of the agreement has now been completed and the results of the Revenue Measure Survey are ready to be presented to the City Council. Timothy McLarney, Ph.D., President of True North Research conducted a poll during the first half of February. The statistically significant results (95% confidence level) that will be presented will provide the City Council with the necessary information to understand if a sales tax measure has a good chance of being successful on a future ballot.
The next steps following the presentation of the polling results will be for the staff/consultant team to continue work outlined in Phase 2 and 3. This work will further the long-term fiscal challenges that the PGCC 3-18-26
City faces. Phase 4 includes supporting the preparation of a revenue ballot measure later in June.
OPTIONS
Direct staff to take alternative action.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There is no further financial impact associated with this item. The City Council approved a not-to-exceed agreement with Props and Measures on November 19, 2025, and reaffirmed the agreement on January 21, 2026. The agreement's scope includes all four phases of work described in the staff report.

City’s original storm drainpipes were installed 50+ yrs ago, sections are starting to fail, creating sink holes, flooding, pollution; measure provides funding to help fix storm drains
All money raised by measure will stay local to fund essential services, facilities here in Pacific Grove; by law, it can’t be taken away by State or County
City has $21M in unfunded infrastructure projects, maintenance that needs to be completed in next 10 yrs; the longer we wait to fix streets, infrastructure, facilities, the more expensive it will become Most sales tax generated locally goes to the State, County; measure ensures higher percentage of sales tax dollars will stay in Pacific Grove, we have local control over how those funds are spent
City maintains 121 lane miles of streets, 78 acres of parks, playfields; measure provides funding we need to keep streets, infrastructure, parks in good condition
Much money raised by sales tax comes from people who visit, pass through Pacific Grove, but don’t live here; measure will make sure they pay their fair share for facilities, services they use Measure includes a clear system of accountability incl citizen oversight, independent audits, public disclosure of how all funds are spent By keeping city safe, clean, well-maintained, measure will help protect quality of life, keep Pacific Grove a special place to live Fast response times for 911 critical for saving lives; measure will help ensure enough law enforcement officers, firefighters, paramedics to respond quickly to 911 emergencies

Pacific Grove is an expensive place to live, especially for young families, seniors, those on fixed incomes; passing tax will make it even less affordable
City already has a 1.5 cent sales tax in place; if new tax passes; Pacific Grove will have the highest sales tax rate in all of Monterey County
Residents, local businesses have been hit hard by inflation, high interest rates, cost of living increases; many are struggling to stay afloat; now is not the time to raise taxes There are no guarantees on how funds will be spent, which means City can divert money to pet projects without any say from voters; we can’t trust City with tax dollars; they will mismanage money
Everyone is coming after us for tax increases, incl state, county taxes, school bonds, other taxes that will be on the ballot next yr; enough is enough; we can’t afford to keep raising taxes City employees are making too much money in salary,
pensions, benefits, that’s the problem; City needs to tighten its belt before asking residents to pay more taxes

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: March 18, 2026
SUBJECT: Award of Agreement Regarding Sewer Infrastructure, 17 Mile Drive, CIP #1 CEQA: Categorical Exemption, CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Class I, Existing Facilities
RECOMMENDATION
Award an agreement with K.J. Woods Construction, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $6,738,000 plus a 10% contingency for the 17 Mile Drive Sewer Infrastructure CIP #1, Rehabilitation Project.
1. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
DISCUSSION
The City provides sewer collection services for residences and commercial businesses over an area of approximately 1,414 acres, with a population of approximately 15,000 residents. The City's collection and conveyance system is comprised of approximately 58 miles of pipelines. This includes 57 miles of gravity pipelines, which vary in diameter from 4-inch to 18-inch, and one mile of force mains.
Maintenance access to the sewers is provided by 904 manholes and numerous structures, such as cleanouts and inspection holes. There are nine sewer lift stations located in the City's service area, seven of which are owned by the City, and two of which are owned by Monterey One Water (MOW).
MOW operates and maintains all nine lift stations. Collected sewage is conveyed via an interceptor pipeline to MOW's regional sewer treatment plant located north of the City of Marina.
The City's sewer collection service is a self-sufficient enterprise fund, identified as fund 76 or the Sewer Fund in the City's budget. Revenues are generated from sewer rates, which fund the total cost of service and Capital Improvement Plan projects on an annual basis. On May 21, 2014, the City Council received the Sewer Collection System Master Plan (Plan), which includes nine projects to be completed.
17 Mile Drive Sewer Infrastructure CIP #1, Rehabilitation Project was identified in the Plan and was brought forward as a Capital Improvement Project for FY 2023/24.
In May of 2024, the City entered into an agreement with the Wallace Group, an Engineering firm based in San Luis Obispo with extensive knowledge of the City's sanitary sewer system. The Wallace Group prepared the 2014 Plan for the City, and authored our Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) and Pump Station Master Plan. This project is very complex and requires significant engineering, stakeholder coordination, and ultimately construction management. Since May of 2024, the City, PGCC 3-18-26
stakeholder coordination, and ultimately construction management. Since May of 2024, the City, along with the Wallace Group have been actively working on the 17 Mile Drive CIP Project #1, to prepare construction drawings, coordinate with the Pebble Beach Company, and ultimately finalize a Request for Proposals.
Project Details, 17 Mile Drive Sewer Line Upgrade:
This project proposes to upgrade approximately 3,100 linear feet of the existing 8-inch and 10-inch gravity sewer main with new 12-inch gravity sewer main. The existing sewer main is located in Majella Road and 17-Mile Drive within Pebble Beach, crosses the Spanish Bay Golf Course, spans across a creek within Spanish Bay’s 12th hole, and is routed through the City Corporation yard to Sunset Drive.
The infrastructure is over 100 years old and has numerous structural defects like offset joints, sags, roots, and infiltration seepage through joints. There is a hydraulic deficiency in the main due to flat slopes, which limits capacity and cannot maintain self-cleaning velocities. The wastewater that is conveyed through this sewer mainline is derived from the Del Monte Park neighborhood. The City has wastewater infrastructure within the Pebble Beach community, as the Del Monte Park area was part of the County, and not within Pacific Grove City limits, until the residence within Del Monte Park was annexed into the City of Pacific Grove in the early 1970’s.
Pebble Beach's Spanish Bay golf course will be closed for one year, starting in April of 2026, until April of 2027, for a complete remodel. This is a perfect time for the City to remove our sewer infrastructure from the golf course and place it within the right of way, 17 Mile Drive, to enhance maintenance access and address the known deficiencies.
Scope of Work:
Replacement of 2,050 linear feet of wastewater lines by open trench and directional drilling Replacement of 1,060 linear feet of wastewater lines by micro tunneling (necessary as the depth is 30+ feet)
12 new manholes within the alignment for maintenance services Reconstruct 4 manholes within existing alignment
3,830 square yards of road rehabilitation
980 square yards of slurry seal
The Pebble Beach Corporation has reviewed all plans and specifications and approved the project within its right-of-way. The City will be in constant communication with them throughout the duration of the project.
In January 2026, a Request for Proposals was issued for the construction of Sewer Infrastructure, 17 Mile Drive-CIP #1. On February 24, 2026, the City received 3 bids for the project.
Contractor Bid
K.J. Woods Construction, Inc $6,738,000
Monterey Peninsula Engineering $7,664,730
Cratus Inc. $9,776,190
The City and Wallace Group have qualified and recommend K.J. Woods Construction, Inc. as the lowest responsible bidder.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This project was approved in FY23/24 for the commencement of design, engineering, coordination, and permitting. The project has been carried through to FY 2025/26 and FY 26/27 and had a preliminary cost estimate of approximately $7M that was approved through the Capital Improvement budget. All funding for the project is derived from Fund 76, the Sewer Fund, which has sufficient funding within the Sewer Fund Capital Improvements budget to fulfill the received bid and complete the project.

Homeless Shelters for Women and Families:
Funding Shortfall and Program Impact
PGCC 3-18-26
WHAT WE DO
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
• 35-bed emergency shelters serving homeless women and families • Typical length of stay: six months
• Approx. number served at each site: ~80 (~25 women & ~15 families) • Stabilize and transition people to permanent housing with improved income, self-sufficiency, and well-being
WRAP-AROUND SUPPORTS
• Basic needs: meals, hygiene supplies, laundry facilities, clothing, and computer / internet access
• Housing-focused supports: case management, housing navigation, and rapid rehousing financial assistance
• Stability supports: connections to physical and behavioral health care, mainstream benefits, employment services, and financial planning PGCC 3-18-26
HOUSING OUTCOMES
Statewide Benchmark
• 23% to permanent housing (Cal ICH, FY 2023-24,
crisis response exits)
Casa de Noche Buena (operated by GFW + CHS)
• 50% to permanent housing (3-year avg.)
• 24% to temporary housing
Shuman HeartHouse (operated by CHS)
• 57% to permanent housing (2-year avg.)
• 17% to temporary housing
PGCC 3-18-26
HOW THE SHELTERS CAME TO BE
CASA DE NOCHE BUENA
• Applied/received ~$1.3m of HEAP funding
• Raised additional ~$400k from community
• Renovated the County-owned modular building
SHUMAN HEARTHOUSE
• Developed with private philanthropy funding
PGCC 3-18-26
SUSTAINING SHELTER BEDS
• CDNB and SHH Annual Operating Costs: approx.
$1.2m per year each
• CHS and GFW established a Special Purpose
Fund through the Community Foundation, for
community fundraising
• Government grants including but not limited to:
HHAP, ESG, CDBG, community support
PGCC 3-18-26
CURRENT & NEAR-TERM FUNDING GAP
Annual Operating Costs:
• Approximately $1.2M each
Projected Annual Funding Shortfall (Non-cumulative; assuming no new funding) Key drivers of the gap:
• FY 2025–26: HHAP-5, and City of Monterey PLHA funds are fully depleted. • FY 2026–27: CDNB Special Purpose Fund ($345,179), HHAP-3 and HHAP4, and $764,353 deferred revenue are fully depleted.
Without new funding stream(s) this marks the beginning of a structural deficit.
Fiscal Year CDNB SHH
2026–27 ~$267K ~$655K
2027–28 ~$649K ~$905K
2028–29 ~$702K ~$958K
2029–30 ~$757K ~$1.01M
PGCC 3-18-26
IMPACT TO PROGRAMS
Objectives:
• Avoid service reductions or shelter closure
• Phase in reductions or closure while pursuing funding Without additional funding or system-level support:
• Reduction in services or capacity
• Elimination of case management
• Conversion to overnight emergency shelter or
seasonal shelter
• Partial or full program closure
Any reduction significantly weakens outcomes and
increases long-term system costs.
PGCC 3-18-26
CONCLUSION
WHAT WE ARE ASKING FOR
• Partnership in maintaining CDNB and SHH shelters
• Stabilization or bridge funding for FY26–27
• Exploration of replacement funding or coordinated system solutions
• Commitment to preserving services that foster housing and economic security
These programs work.
With support, they remain a pathway to stability.
Without it, homeless families and women remain stuck
in crisis and system costs rise.
Thank you for your partnership and consideration.
