DISCUSSION
The purpose of this Council policy is to formalize the process for selecting a voting delegate and up to two alternates to attend the League of California Cities Annual Conference and vote on behalf of the City.

Background
The League of California Cities holds an Annual Conference each year. During the conference business meeting, the City's authorized voting delegate represents the City's interests by voting on League policy matters. If the designated voting delegate is unable to attend, the authorized alternate may exercise the City's voting authority. The League requires each participating city to adopt a resolution annually designating its Mayor or another elected official to serve as the City's voting delegate and authorizing that individual to participate in the business meeting and vote on the City's behalf.

On June 7, 2023, the City Council adopted a policy to ensure this designation process is conducted consistently and transparently each year. The City Clerk was instructed to work with the City Attorney to prepare the attached redlined amendments to the current policy for the Council's review and consideration.

CITY OF PACIFIC GROVE
300 Forest Avenue, Pacific Grove, California 93950
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: David Stiles, Senior Accountant
MEETING DATE: August 19, 2026
SUBJECT: FY26 Q4 Quarterly Investment 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 Council. The Quarterly Investment Report allows the Council and public to verify that the City's funds are invested in a safe and prudent manner, and the such investments comply with City policy and state law. The Investment 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 30, 2026 and shows that cash and investments were held citywide, with a market value of $44,282,362. There was a $3,246,194 increase in the cost basis of the City's investments from the prior quarter, and a $3,199,408 increase in the fair market value of the City's investments from the prior quarter. 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 City's applicable policies.

All bank balances are insured. The City does not actively trade either certificates of deposit or federal agency securities, but holds investments in the portfolio until maturity. The table below shows the activity for the quarter:

Date Description Security Type Rate Face Value Activity 06/09/26 Ally Bank Sandy Utah Certificate of Deposit 3.00% $246,000 Matured 06/23/26 UBS Bank Salt Lake City Certificate of Deposit 0.75% $249,000 Matured 05/31/26 United States Treasury US Treasury Securities 0.75% $250,021 Matured 05/13/26 Federal Farm Cr Bank US Government Bonds 0.88% $170,007 Matured PGCC 8-19-26

This represents a yield rate that is

0.04% less than the prior quarter and 0.13% more than the same quarter of the prior year.

The Investment Report is also available on the City's website.

For an investment, custodial credit risk is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the City will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The California Government Code and the City's investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for investments. With respect to investments, custodial credit risk generally applies only to direct investments in marketable securities. Custodial credit risk does not apply to a local government's indirect investment in securities through the use of mutual funds or government investment pools (such as LAIF).

Fair Value of Investments
The three levels of the fair value measurement hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for assets liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.

Level 2 – Inputs, observable for the assets through corroboration with market data at the measurement date.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting the City’s best estimate of market pricing at the measurement date.

Federal Agency Securities and corporate bonds categorized as Level 2 are valued based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuations for which all significant assumptions are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Semi-quincentennial, now there’s a word we only hear once every 250 years.

Economic Highlights
• The Federal Reserve (Fed) unanimously voted to keep the federal funds target range at 3.50%–3.75% during Kevin Warsh’s first meeting as Fed Chair. While the policy decision was broadly expected, the meeting marked a notable shift in communication strategy as forward guidance was removed from the policy statement and replaced with a more analytical and data-dependent approach to policymaking.
• Chair Warsh repeatedly affirmed the Fed’s commitment to price stability and announced five task forces focused on communications; balance sheet policy; data and analytical frameworks; productivity and employment trends (including AI); and the Fed’s inflation framework. While the reviews could meaningfully change how the Fed communicates and evaluates economic conditions, the Committee’s 2% inflation target remains outside their scope. • The June “dot plot” showed a more hawkish policy path with nine committee members projecting at least one rate hike in 2026.

Chair Warsh did not submit projections, instead emphasizing the uncertainty surrounding the economic outlook and the importance of incoming data. • Inflation remained above the Fed's target in May, though the picture was mixed. Headline PCE rose to 4.1% year-over-year, largely reflecting elevated energy prices. Core PCE increased to

3.4% year-over-year, reflecting ongoing stickiness in services sectors while goods inflation moderated as tariff-related pressures continue to fade. We believe inflation may be at or near its peak as the recent decline in oil and gasoline prices should help moderate energy-related inflation pressures in the months ahead. Potential flare-ups in the Middle East remain a key risk to the outlook. • Economic growth remained solid on the surface as Q1 GDP was revised up to 2.1% from 1.6%. However, consumer spending made its weakest contribution to GDP since Q1 2022. Business investment remained a bright spot, particularly within technology, software, and AI-related capital spending.
• Labor-market data increasingly pointed toward normalization rather than acceleration. June payroll growth came in below expectations with 57,000 created, while prior months were revised lower. The unemployment rate ticked lower to 4.2%, though the bulk of that decline was the direct result of a declining labor force participation rate. At the same time, job openings remained elevated and layoffs stayed historically low, highlighting a labor market that appears to be cooling gradually rather than deteriorating abruptly. Wage growth continued to moderate and remained below headline inflation, reinforcing concerns surrounding household purchasing power and the durability of consumer spending.

Interest Rates
• A more hawkish Fed tone pushed yields higher in June. Yields on 3-month, 2-year, and 10-year U.S. Treasuries ended the month at

3.82%, 4.18%, and 4.47%, representing changes of +14 bps, +17 bps, and +3 bps, respectively.
• The ICE BofA 3-month, 2-year, and 10-year U.S. Treasury indices returned +0.29%, +0.03%, and +0.33%, respectively.

Equity Markets
• U.S. equity performance in June underscored a market sentiment shift and industry rotation as momentum in the technology sector waned. The Dow Jones increased by +2.71%, the S&P 500 Index was down -0.95%, and the Nasdaq fell -2.75%.
• International equities melted lower in June as the MSCI ACWI ex U.S. Net Index declined -0.56%.

PFMAM Strategy Recap & Outlook
• While the probability of rate hikes has risen, we believe markets have overpriced the likelihood of additional Fed tightening. Our base case is for the Fed to remain on hold into 2027, making interest rates attractive in our view. As a result, we intend to maintain portfolio durations in shorter-term strategies at 101%-105% of benchmarks.
• Investment-grade (IG) corporate bonds produced slightly positive excess returns in June with the exception of securities beyond 10 years. While we continue to view corporate fundamentals as generally healthy, valuations remain near historically rich levels and leave limited room for further spread compression. We expect income generation and carry to be the primary contributor to returns.
• Spreads on asset-backed securities (ABS) grinded tighter over the month, generating positive excess returns. We remain constructive on the sector given resilient fundamentals and attractive diversification benefits, though valuations have become less compelling following the recent spread tightening. Going forward, we believe security selection will play an increasingly important role as sector spreads remain below long-term averages. • Mortgage-backed securities (MBS) generally lagged other sectors, including Treasuries, during the month, while commercial MBS produced modest positive excess returns. We continue to view valuations as rich relative to historical levels and believe ongoing uncertainty surrounding rates, inflation, and Fed policy may limit near-term performance. As a result, we maintain a cautious stance toward the sectors.
• We believe all-in yields remain attractive on the short end of the curve, particularly given our expectation the Fed will remain on hold. We continue to favor selective exposure to high-quality short-term credit where carry, income generation, and roll-down potential remain attractive. Floating rate credit also remains an attractive sector for both incremental yields carry and as a hedge against multiple rate hikes this year.

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: Lori McDonnell, Councilmember
MEETING DATE: August 19, 2026
SUBJECT: Comment Letter on NOAA Performance Evaluation of the California Coastal Management Program
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION
Submit letter from the City of Pacific Grove supporting the California Coastal Management Program (CCMP) as NOAA conducts its periodic evaluation of the program's performance under the Coastal Zone Management Act.

DISCUSSION
Overview
The California Coastal Management Program is a federal-state partnership created under the federal Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972. It protects natural resources, manages coastal development to balance sustainable economic growth with environmental health, and safeguards public access to the shore. The program is jointly administered by key state bodies including the California Coastal Commission.

The federal administration and the NOAA Office for Coastal Management are conducting a performance evaluation of the program, focusing on energy, offshore oil production, and infrastructure projects.

Background
On May 20, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick directed NOAA to conduct a formal review of California's coastal management program — the federal-state partnership that gives California real power to protect its beaches and push back against harmful federal projects along our coast. The stated rationale is to ensure California gives sufficient weight to "economic development" and federal priorities in areas including offshore energy, transportation, infrastructure, and commercial space development. The current administration is accusing California's coastal protections of getting in the way.

The CCMP has a strong record of effective, balanced administration. Over nearly fifty years, the program has approved the vast majority of projects submitted for review and has objected only where there was documented harm to the coast. That is a program functioning as intended, not a pattern of obstruction. NOAA's own 2024 evaluation found the program successfully implemented and enforced.

PGCC 8-19-26

Page 54 ends

A new review less than two years later, of a program with this track record, raises real concerns for our community about what is driving this reassessment.

The federal-state partnership behind California's coast Under the federal Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA), passed in 1972, states that develop approved coastal management programs earn two major benefits: federal grant funding to support coastal protection work, and — far more importantly — the power of federal consistency review.

Federal consistency requires that federal actions with reasonably foreseeable effects on any coastal use or natural resource be consistent with the enforceable policies of a state's federally approved coastal management program.

In California, that means the Coastal Commission can review proposed federal activities and federally licensed, permitted, or financially assisted activities if they affect coastal uses or resources, including offshore oil and gas leasing, Army Corps of Engineers fill permits, military projects, and commercial space launch projects on federal lands.

Often, this leads to valuable state-federal partnerships that result in better protection of the marine environment and beach access rights. Occasionally, the federal consistency requirement serves as a safeguard against harmful projects for the preservation of our beaches.

What's at stake now
The review being initiated now uses a different mechanism — a Section 312 "performance evaluation" — but it follows directly from an Executive Order mandating review of states whose coastal management programs include review of space infrastructure and operations. Under Section 312, failure to comply with required program changes can result in suspension of California's CZMA grant funding.

More broadly, a hostile federal review is a predicate for challenging or weakening California's consistency authority — the very tool that stopped the Trestles toll road, that allows California to object to offshore oil drilling in federal waters, and that requires federal infrastructure and energy projects to account for coastal impacts before breaking ground.

Conclusion
California has built one of the nation’s strongest coastal planning systems. For over 50 years, the California Coastal Management Program has operated successfully, balancing the interests of residents, coastal economies and businesses, and marine resources. Led by science and guided by collaboration and transparency with the public, it has shown that strong environmental protection and thriving coastal communities can go hand in hand.

For these reasons, we are requesting that the City Council submit a comment letter supporting the California Coastal Management Program (CCMP) as NOAA conducts its periodic evaluation of the program's performance under the Coastal Zone Management Act.

Re: Comments on Performance Evaluation of the California Coastal Management Program Dear NOAA Office for Coastal Management,
The City of Pacific Grove respectfully submits these comments to offer our strong support for the California Coastal Management Program (CCMP) as NOAA conducts its periodic evaluation of the program's performance under the Coastal Zone Management Act.

We understand this review is considering new input on categories of development including spaceport infrastructure, offshore oil production, pipeline maintenance, desalination projects, and undersea cables. These are exactly the kinds of projects where the state's consistency review authority matters most. Offshore oil production and pipelines carry a documented history of spills that foul beaches and harm marine life for years afterward. Desalination facilities can draw in and destroy marine organisms at the intake and discharge concentrated brine that damages nearshore ecosystems. Undersea cable and spaceport infrastructure projects disturb seafloor habitat and disrupt the coastal environment during construction and operation. The state's ability to determine consistency on projects like these, approving them when they are safe and objecting when they are not, is precisely what this program exists to do, and that authority should not be weakened.

Pacific Grove also depends on the Coastal Commission's federal funding and consistency authority to protect the coastline our residents and economy rely on. A protected, accessible coast is central to life in our community, and any reduction in the state's authority to review projects that could harm it would be felt directly by the people we represent.

We respectfully urge NOAA to find the California Coastal Management Program in compliance with the Coastal Zone Management Act and to preserve its funding and authority intact.

California has built one of the nation’s strongest coastal planning systems, led by science, guided by collaboration and transparency with the public, and balancing environmental protection with a thriving coastal economy. We respectfully urge NOAA to find California in full compliance and to preserve the state's role and authority in decisions that impact coastal resources.

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 19, 2026
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
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 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 of Interest Code, and direct that a summary of a proposed ordinance be published as approved by the City Attorney.

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.

No amendments were made to the City’s Conflict of Interest Code in 2024. A recent review of the City’s Conflict of Interest Code has revealed positions not previously listed. The attached Ordinance reflects these additions.

OPTIONS
Provide alternative direction.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact for the review and amendments to the City's Conflict of Interest Code.

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: Amy Colony, Program Manager
MEETING DATE: August 19, 2026
SUBJECT: Chinese Pavilion Project
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION

1. Receive report and approve pavilion design and conceptual plan.

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

DISCUSSION
In 2022, the Monterey Bay Chinese Association (MBCA) proposed constructing a Chinese pavilion in Pacific Grove to honor the history and contributions of Chinese Americans in the area. The idea was first presented at the 07/19/2022 Beautification and Natural Resources Committee (BNRC) meeting as a potential public art project for the FY 23/24 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). A subcommittee reviewed the proposal, and on 12/12/2022, BNRC recommended adding it to the CIP plan. MBCA asked the City of Pacific Grove to donate land next to the recreation trail for the pavilion; however, this site lacked enough support and was not included as a public art project in the FY 23/24 CIP.

In 2023, the MBCA explored various locations for the pavilion within existing city parks. After reviewing options and consulting staff, they selected the gazebo site in Elmarie Dyke Park as the most suitable. The plan involved replacing the current gazebo with a new Chinese pavilion. An architect was engaged to define the project scope and develop initial conceptual designs. These designs, which featured the pavilion and moon gate, were presented at the 9/28/2023 Recreation Board meeting. The Board examined the report and recommended that the project be forwarded to City Council for potential inclusion in FY 24/25 CIP.

At the 12/20/2023 City Council meeting, City staff presented the Chinese pavilion and moon gate project for City Council consideration, recommending that the gazebo at Elmarie Dyke Park be replaced with a Chinese pavilion and that a moon gate be added at the park entrance. City Council requested that staff explore potential alternative locations, including the Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History Garden. An overview of these findings, including location photos, was presented at the 4/3/2024 City Council meeting. City staff recommended including the Chinese pavilion project in the CIP for FY 24/25, with Elmarie Dyke Park as the preferred location. This recommendation was approved by the Council.

In September 2024, MBCA launched its fundraising campaign to raise $200,000. By January 2025, MBCA and City staff began searching for an architect to design the pavilion and moon gate. In March 2025, the City retained the services of an architect to design both the pavilion and moon gate. However, this contract was terminated in June 2025 due to artistic differences. MBCA decided that instead of hiring an architect for a potentially costly and time-consuming pavilion design, they would import a prefabricated traditional pavilion directly from China. They planned to hire a landscape architect to assist with site design and project management.

In October 2025, the City approved a proposal from Oona Johnsen Landscape Architect for landscaping design consulting services. Over the past year, MBCA and city staff have collaborated closely with Oona Johnsen and her team to choose a suitable prefabricated pavilion for the site, complemented by traditional landscaping features that invite visitors and foster public use.

This report includes the project’s architectural site plan (attachment 1) and two artist renderings showing the conceptual design and placement of the pavilion (attachment 2). If the City Council approves these plans, city staff and MBCA will proceed with Oona Johnsen on the next project phase, which involves ordering the pavilion from China and developing construction plans. Staff will bring forward an award of bid for construction, along with the financial agreement with MBCA at a future City Council meeting.

OPTIONS

1. Approve the landscape architecture design and artistic renderings for the project.

2. Do not approve the landscape architectural design and artistic renderings for the project.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The Monterey Bay Chinese Association has committed to funding the full project costs through fundraising.

FROM: Alex Lorca, City Attorney
MEETING DATE: August 19, 2026
SUBJECT: Employment Agreement of Retired Annuitant (Interim City Manager) CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION
Approve a resolution and employment agreement appointing Richard Lyons Rerig, Jr. as a Retired Annuitant to temporarily fill the City Manager vacancy.

DISCUSSION
The City is in need of a City Manager on a temporary basis for a limited duration to oversee and manage the operations of the City of Pacific Grove. The City Manager resigned on August 21, 2026.

An executive recruitment was authorized on July 15, 2026 to fill the vacancy. If the recruitment is successful, it is anticipated that a regular appointment to fill the vacancy will occur prior to the end of the year.

Richard "Chip" Lyons Rerig, Jr. formerly served as a City Manager for the City of Carmel By-the-Sea while employed prior to their retirement and possesses the specialized skills and training required to perform the duties of the temporary assignment.

Mr. Rerig is a retired annuitant under the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (“CalPERS”) and is limited in their ability to accept public employment without reinstatement pursuant to Government Code section 21221(h) and may not work more than 960 hours within a fiscal year.

Mr. Rerig desires to provide temporary services to City. However, as a CalPERS retired annuitant under Government (Gov.) Code section 21221(h) of the Public Employees’ Retirement Law, the governing body must appoint Mr. Rerig by resolution.

OPTIONS
Provide alternative direction to staff
FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Salary from the vacant City Manager position will cover the cost of the temporary hire. There are no benefits associated with this temporary assignment.

Agenda No. 12 C

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 19, 2026
SUBJECT: Special Events Policy 900-1
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION
Receive report and provide direction.

DISCUSSION
City Council Policy 900-1 Special Events, provides guidance for all special events held within the City of Pacific Grove. This policy outlines the process for application submission, application review, event classification, billing, late submissions and approval by City Council. This policy ensures that a healthy and financially feasible balance remains in place between the number of special event applications and the ability of our neighborhoods, parks, and facilities to accommodate approved events. The current policy does not limit the number of events that can be included on the calendar each year.

Per the existing policy, special events fall into two categories:

Special Events (Full Cost Recovery): These are special events that require exclusive use of City property and require support from Police, Fire, or Public Works. Events in this classification will be billed at full cost recovery rates.

1. City Sponsored Events: These events include traditional events that are primarily hosted by the Chamber of Commerce, Pacific Grove Unified School District, or the City and they shall receive full city support. These events will be noted annually on the Special Events Calendar for approval by the City Council.

2. Complete Applications are submitted and reviewed for the next fiscal year, which staff collects in the fall prior to the start of a new fiscal year. The special events calendar runs concurrently with the City’s Fiscal Calendar. Below is the sequence for review.

1. November: Applications received and reviewed by staff

2. January: Proposed Calendar presented to Recreation Board March: Events in the coastal zone presented to the Planning Commission (PC) for review and issuance of a Coastal Development Permit (3-year permits have been requested)*

3. 4. April: City Council approval of the Event Calendar PGCC 8-19-26

Page 121 ends

*This schedule deviates from the current policy. The current policy does not incorporate the PC consideration for Coastal Development Permits
Annually, based on the fiscal year, the City hosts approximately 28 events; this number varies from year to year.

Fiscal Year 26/27 Special Events Calendar:

The Special Events Calendar for the current fiscal year has a total of 29 events. Of the 29 approved events, 7 are classified as standard Special Events and will be full cost recovery; the remaining 22 are classified as City Sponsored Events and will be fully subsidized. 3 events are put on by the City, 5 by the Chamber of Commerce, 4 by the Youth Ambassadors, 3 by the Heritage Society, 2 by the Museum of Natural History, 1 by the Pacific Grove Unified School District, and 11 by other event organizers.

Most of the Special Events approved for the current year take place in a 7-month period, between May and December. Some weeks have multiple events hosted by different event organizers (ex: Car Week) and several event organizers host weekend long celebrations with back-to-back events (ex: Summer Lights, Butterfly Days, Good Old Days). Some days in the year have multiple, unrelated events on the same day at different locations in the City (ex: 3 events are scheduled for 10 am on Saturday, October 10th). The concentration of events is notable because of the support needed from various departments to ensure the safe implementation of events, regardless of their event classification (subsidized or not).

The total costs associated with the FY26/27 Special Events Calendar is approximately $176,000. The City is anticipated to recoup approximately $80,000 in cost associated with the 7 full cost recovery events. For the full cost recovery events, all associated event costs including staff time and rental fees will be billed to and paid by the event organizer. The remaining $100,000, which is comprised of staff time and rental fees, is associated with the 22 events classified as City-Sponsored Events and will be fully subsidized by the City.

Exploration of Policy Revisions
The Special Events policy provides us the framework by which to review and approve special events on an annual basis to ensure a healthy and financially feasible balance remains in place between the number of special event applications and the ability of our neighborhoods, parks, and facilities to accommodate approved events.

The Special Events Policy was originally established in 1986 and has undergone several amendments over the years to enhance implementation and meet community needs, with the latest amendments being approved in July of 2022.

At the April 1, 2026, City Council meeting, when staff presented the Fiscal Year 2026/27 Events Calendar, the Council requested that Policy 900-1 Special Events return to the Council for review.

This agenda report aims to initiate a high-level conversation on potential areas for policy revision based on implementation and feedback received over the years. The report provides three general areas and subtopics that could be further explored by staff. Staff is seeking direction from Council on which of the following items should be further explored.

Following general direction from Council, specific policy amendments would be explored by staff, taken to the Recreation Board for consideration, and subsequently return to Council for approval.

Potential areas of exploration:

PGCC 8-19-26

Page 122 ends

1. Concentration of Special Events
Changes to the concentration of events could be explored by:

Capping the number of special events in a specific time period (i.e. day, week, month, etc.)

2. Special Event Subsidization
Staff could review the subsidization of special events by:

Capping the amount of subsidization for the annual special events calendar Capping the amount of subsidization for any one City- Sponsored event Capping the number of subsidized or City sponsored events by any one entity

3. Process Adjustments
Staff could explore removal of off-cycle submissions, with the potential for consideration or exemption under certain circumstances (which cloud be explored/determined).

The current process allows for submission of “off cycle” events and states that they “shall be considered” if they meet the following parameters:

1. Event is not in conflict with approved special events or issued park/facility permit

2. Application is received a minimum of 150 days in advance of the event Off-cycle applications undergo that same review and approval process but will not be recommended as “City Sponsored” events.

Off-cycle event submissions present challenges because staff from various departments must pivot from other priorities throughout the year to process and review a singular off-cycle event submission, if it meets the above criteria. The review process is significantly streamlined when review and approval of multiple events happens concurrently during the standard cycle of submission and approval.

Staff is looking for Council feedback on which of the above items should be further explored by staff.

Following general direction from Council, specific policy amendments would be explored by staff, taken to the Recreation Board for consideration, and subsequently return to Council for approval.

OPTIONS

1. Do nothing and keep the policy as is
Request staff to explore changes to the policy and return to the Recreation Board and subsequently, City Council

2. 3. Request staff to explore changes to the policy and bring it back directly to the City Council

4. Provide alternative direction
FINANCIAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact from receiving this report.

CITY OF PACIFIC GROVE

CITY COUNCIL POLICY
SUBJECT POLICY NO. EFFECTIVE DATE PAGE NO.

Special Events 900-1 February 16, 2011 1 of 3

PURPOSE
The intent of this policy is to provide guidance for the conduct of special events in the City and ensure an appropriate balance between the number and scope of special events with the ability of City neighborhoods and facilities to adequately handle such events.

POLICY
I. General
The City shall have the discretion to limit the number of special events in any fiscal year.

All special events will be limited to those activities that benefit Pacific Grove residents or businesses.

Most special events are either one-time or annual. Certain special events, such as the Farmers' Market, are periodic and ongoing.

The Council reserves the right to take actions creating exceptions to this policy in the event of special circumstances.

Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Requirements
The ADA requires the City of Pacific Grove and public accommodations to provide equitable access for people with disabilities. Event organizers are expected follow ADA guidelines and provide and maintain access for people with disabilities. This may include providing a clear path of travel to and on sidewalks, curb cuts and restrooms; maintaining already-designated parking for people with disabilities, providing additional parking for people with disabilities if parking is provided; and providing accessible restrooms.

Non-Discrimination Policy
The City of Pacific Grove (City) requires that no person shall be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to discrimination under any program or activity on the grounds of race, color, sex, age, disability or national origin, as provided by Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987 (P.L. 100.259) or due to breastfeeding in a public place, gender identity, marital status, political ideology, religion, sexual orientation, or military status or veteran status. The City of Pacific Grove also includes immigration status, ethnic background and Neurodivergent people, in its non-discrimination policy. The City further assures every effort will be made to ensure nondiscrimination and inclusivity in all of its programs and activities, whether those programs and activities are federally funded or not. Permitted special events must comply with the City's nondiscrimination policy and all applicable City, state and federal laws, rules and regulations.

PGCC 8-19-26

*Neurodivergent or ND refers to variations in the human brain and cognition, for instance in sociability, learning, attention, mood and other mental functions.

II. Types of Special Events
The City will create an annual calendar of special events. Events included in the annual calendar shall have first priority for the scheduled locations and times. Requests for inclusion in the annual calendar shall be submitted to the City by November 30th for any event to be held during the following fiscal year.

Such events will not be approved if they conflict with already approved events. Events requiring City Council approval are those that:
• Require City sponsorship or other City support;
• Preclude others from using an entire outdoor public facility (e.g., Caledonia Park); • Are likely to have a significant impact on substantial numbers of residents or businesses (e.g., closure of multiple or high-traffic streets for a significant amount of time, as determined by the City Manager); or
• Have other characteristics that warrant public consideration by the Council.

More limited events may be approved by staff. A neighborhood event, requiring closure only of a neighborhood street, for example, would not require Council approval. In these cases, those persons incurring the costs of the street closure are the same persons benefiting from the event.

III. Information Required
Each application for special events shall contain the following information:

A. A description of the proposed event.

B. A statement of the purpose of the event and its benefits to the City including actions of inclusivity that are reflective of the diverse community which we aim to be.

C. The name of the sponsoring organization.

D. The date, location, and time (to include preparation and clean up) of the event. In the case of a race or parade, a map of the proposed route shall be submitted.

E. An estimate of the number of participants and/or spectators.

F. A description of City facilities, support, and personnel required.

G. A list of personnel to be provided by the sponsor.

H. A description of parking arrangements for the event.

I. If electronic sound amplification equipment will be used, an application for the necessary permit shall be made as required by Chapter 11.94 of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code.

J. A description of the proposed refuse management and recycling program for plastics, glass, paper, and aluminum during the event.

K. A listing of accommodations provided by the sponsor pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act.

L. A listing of fees proposed to be charged, commercial sales, commercial filming, and the service or sale of food and/or alcohol.

Agenda No. 13 A

CITY OF PACIFIC GROVE
300 Forest Avenue, Pacific Grove, California 93950
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Cynthia Garfield, Councilmember
MEETING DATE: August 19, 2026
SUBJECT: Overnight Parking of Trailers and Oversized Vehicles Ordinance No. 17-021 CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION
Direct staff to work with the Traffic and Safety Commission and return with suggested ordinance(s) changes to the City Council, with a focus on the areas outlined in this staff report

2. Direct City Personnel to provide resources such as 211, parking programs, social services programs or other resources for the unhoused.

3. 4. Take an alternative action.

DISCUSSION
The purpose of this item is for the City Council to initiate a review and potential changes to the City’s RV and Trailer parking regulations, by directing the Traffic Safety Commission to study and recommend changes to the existing applicable municipal code sections.

Signage and Ordinance Consistency
On October 18, 2017, Council adopted Ordinance 17-021 which included amendments to 16.40.045 PGMC and 18.36.040. These amendments established overnight parking limitations. One element of the ordinance is that these regulations would be in effect from 10pm to 5pm. Currently, the signage limiting overnight parking along the coast says “12am – 5am”. The confusion between the ordinance’s start time and signage start time can hinder enforcement. Before directing staff to post new signs, this is a good time to be certain that all elements of the ordinance support effective enforcement and make the rules clear to all.

Oversize Vehicle Definition
Oversized vehicles, when parked for an extended period, take up scarce parking space and may be unsightly as well. The regulations in PGMC 16.40.045(b)(2) define “oversized” as 22 feet in length or greater. Note that standard parking spaces are anywhere from 18-23 feet. Some municipalities restrict length to 20 feet or include all racks and hitches in the measure of length. Including racks and hitches is a more accurate measure of the degree to which an oversized vehicle takes up space, particularly when PGCC 8-19-26

Page 130 ends

the vehicle takes up more than one marked parking spot. In addition, an RV that is legally parked for the day may impede passage around the vehicle when it pops out various windows, seating, etc. Some municipalities also restrict height of “oversized” vehicles to no more than 9 feet. Suggested addition to the size limitation is 9 feet depending on state law.

Fines and Penalties for Violations
Section 16.40.(e)(2) says that violations are an infraction and may be enforced by Chapter 1.16PGMC which says the first violation may carry a fine up to $100, the second up to $200 and the third and subsequent violations carry fines up to $500. A suggested amendment is that the first citation be issued as a warning with information about restrictions and fines. The warning would be on record for future reference when another occurrence may be noted by a different officer.

Living and Sleeping in Vehicles
Section 4 of Ordinance 17-021 amends section 18.36.040 PGMC stating that “no house car, or other motor vehicle shall be or remain parked….at any time it is occupied as living or sleeping quarters. That can be read as no RV, camper or car used as someone’s “home” can be parked on any PG street at any time. Since the purpose of the Ordinance 17-021 is limitations on overnight parking, the text of the amended 18.36.040 should specify the restriction is in force between 10pm and 5 am.

Unhitched Trailers and Oversized Vehicles
A separate concern is the daytime parking of unhitched trailers and oversized vehicles that are not occupied but are being stored on public streets. The revision of Chapter 16.40.045 limits restrictions on parking trailers and oversized vehicles to overnight parking between 10pm and 5am. Restrictions on daytime parking/storage may require a separate ordinance. One way to limit the parking/storage of oversized vehicles is to require a permit for parking a resident’s or guest’s oversized vehicle for a limited period (such as 72 hours) on the resident’s street or where a guest is visiting the resident or is a guest in a hotel that acquires the permit. Unhitched trailers often pose a hazard as they cannot be seen at night and may also be unsightly. Again, a permit for limited neighborhood parking (on the street where the owner lives) during the use of the trailer would limit the potential for blight created by using public streets for storage and prevent daytime storage of an unhitched trailer.

OPTIONS
Provide other direction to staff.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

By clarifying enforcement, more tickets may be issued thus increasing fines paid. Greater enforcement will require more police time, therefore expense.

FOCUSED PRIORITY AREA: Not Applicable.
