SUBJECT: FINDINGS TO CONDUCT CITY COUNCIL AND BOARD, COMMISS ION, AND COMMITTEE MEETINGS VIRTUALLY UNDER ASSEMBLY BILL 361 FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Anthony J. Mejia, City Clerk
RECOMMENDATION:
Fin
d that the City Council has considered the circumstances of the state of emergency during a proclaimed state of emergency, and state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing, and as a result, the Palm Springs City Council and all of Palm Springs Board, C ommission, and Committee meetings will be held by videoconference, in accordance with AB 361.
BACKGROUND:
Gov
ernor Newsom’s Executive Orders N-29-20 and N-35-20, which relaxed some of the Brown Act’s teleconferencing provisions during the COVID -19 pandemic, expired on September 30, 2021. On September 16, 2021, Governor Newsom signed AB 361, which amends sections of the Brown Act to allow legislative bodies to more easily hold teleconference meetings during a state of emergency.
In order to utilize these provisions of the Brown Act, the City Council must find that it has considered the circumstances of the state of emergency, and either:
(1) state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing as a result of the proclaimed state of emergency, or
(2) the state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person.
The City Council must make these findings every 30 days for as long as the City is conducting virtual meetings under AB 361.
City Staff and the City Attorney’s Office believe that these findings can be made. Although the Governor’s Executive Orders dealing with virtual meetings have expired, the original state of emergency for COVID -19 is still in effect. In addition, the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and the County of Riverside continue to recommend social distancing as a result of the COVID-19 state of emergency.
Item 1A - 1
City Council Staff Report

Virtual Meetings Under AB 361
As such, City S taff and the City Attorney recommend that the City Council make these findings, including at every Council meeting, in order to meet the “every 30 days ” requirement of AB 361. These findings would apply to all City Boards, Commissions and Committees, so they are able to hold virtual meetings under AB 361.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

DATE: MARCH 24, 2022 CONSENT CALENDAR
SUBJECT: APPROVE THE 2022 AIR SERVICE INCENTIVE PROGRAM FOR PALM
SPRINGS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Aviation Department
SUMMARY:
This action will consider approving a new Air Service Incentive Program for the Palm Springs International Airport that allows for waiver of certain airport fees and granting marketing funds for qualifying non-stop air service.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve the new 2022 Air Service Incentive Program (Attachment A).
2. A DOPT RESOLUTION NO. ___ (Attachment B), “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING THE 2022 AIR SERVICE INCENTIVE PROGRAM FOR THE PALM SPRINGS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT.”
3. Authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute all necessary documents.
BACKGROUND:
In 2010, the City established an Airline Marketing Incentive Program allocating $1,000,000 in promotional funding to qualifying new air service at the Palm Springs International Airport (“PSP” or “Airport”). As a result, from 2010 through 201 7, the City approved agreements with various carriers providing incentives valued at over $750,000 to reimburse those airlines for marketing programs related to their new air service to PSP. (No applications were received in 2018).
In November 2018, the Airport Commission recommended the City Council replace a cash reimbursement marketing-based incentive program with a fee -waiver program targeted to specific fees (landing fees and hold room fees) in an amount not to exceed Item 1C - 1
City Council Staff Report
March 24, 2022 – Page 2
PSP Air Service Incentive Program – 2022
$500,000 tied to new air service between PSP and specific destination cities. City Council adopted the 2019 Air Service Incentive Program (“Program”) at their meeting on February 6, 2019.
In December 2021, Airport Staff and the Airport Commission recommended the City Council increase the incentive cap for the 2019 Air Service Incentive Program , to accommodate an influx of applications for new service at that time, and a suspension of the program to allow Airport Staff to revise and propose a new program in early 2022.
City Council adopted the recommendation at their meeting on December 9, 2021.
On February 16, 2022, Airport Staff presented the 2022 Air Service Incentive Program to the Airport Commission, and the Commission voted to recommend the 2022 Air Service Incentive Program to the City Council for approval.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Ai
rport Staff is now presenting the 2022 Air Service Incentive Program for the Palm Springs International Airport. This new program will replace the 2019 Air Service Incentive Program.
The 2019 program provided two lists of cities that would qualify for air service incentives:
a list of Target Cities and a list of Existing Cities, both receiv ing the same level of incentives, whether the route was served by multiple airlines or not. The result was that the program over-incentivized some routes and offered no incentives for unlisted potentially viable routes. Additionally, the program did not offer any marketing funds.
The proposed revised program offers marketing funds and fee waivers , consistent with current industry standards, with the potential to make PSP stand out among other airports. The proposed program contains seven levels of incentives based on frequency of service, type of service, and seasonality of the service that is being proposed, as well as a component to attract additional airlines to PSP. It includes marketing funds that will be earmarked specifically to advertise new service that meets the incentive criteria and fee waivers which include landing fees , terminal waivers (p assenger boarding bridge/apron/hold room use) and terminal space rent waivers.
The proposed program uses a tiered and progressive methodology, reserving the best incentives for daily, year-round service to a select list of target cities while providing less robust incentives as routes become saturated and for seasonal service.
The incentives for this new program are described as follows:

PSP Air Service Incentive Program – 2022
This program also comes with stipulations that include a pro -rated repayment of marketing funds and fee waivers should an airline not complete the terms of the agreement. The previous program did not include an option for the Airport to recover funds if an airline did not meet the agreed upon terms for incentives.
Stipulations for the Marketing Funds are as follows:
1. Advertising incentive funds will be available to FAA Part 121 Signatory and Non- Signatory Airlines with a signed Airport Use and Lease Agreement.
2. All marketing funds and activities must exclusively promote the routes eligible under the program to/from PSP.
3. All marketing incentives are available from the date of service announcement until six months after service inception. 50% of available funds must be spent by launch date.
4. Incentives may be paid directly to the media outlet or reimbursed to the Air Carrier, should the C arrier want to utilize their existing agency relationships. The Airport will reimburse the Airline for these services, up to the allowable program funds, only if the Airline received prior written approval of the media buy from the Airport and only if the Airline produces a detailed invoice outlining the media purchase, their air dates, and a copy of the ads that ran. All qualified reimbursements must be submitted to the Airport for processing no later than 45 days after the expense is incurred. Any delayed reimbursement request in excess of 45 days is subject to a 10% reduction in reimbursable expenses. The Airport will also place ads on the Airline’s behalf if desired.
5. The PSP name or logo must be incorporated into all A irport-funded media purchases.
6. Marketing activities that may be supported under this agreement include, but are not limited to print advertising, collateral materials, direct mail and other forms of print marketing; multi -media advertising such as TV, radio, SEM, and interactive (web); and social media/digital advertising such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.
7. All eligible funds must be spent in the PSP catchment area as defined by the Airport.
8. The Airport must approve in advance all advertising and promotional activities associated with the new service for which the A ir Carrier desires to receive the marketing incentive.
9. All advertising and marketing must comply with FAA regulations and guidelines for use of Airport revenue for such purpose.
10. The Air Carrier and Airport must agree in writing to a marketing strategy for the new service, that includes: the timeline of promotional activities; the medium that will be used, and the budget of the promotion.
Item 1C - 6
City Council Staff Report
March 24, 2022 – Page 7
PSP Air Service Incentive Program – 2022
11. Should the incentivized service be suspended prior to the expiration of the incentive period, the Air Carrier shall be responsible for pro- rated reimbursement of all marketing funds spent. The Airport/City of Palm Springs, at its sole discretion, may consider waiving repayment of marketing funds if, after operating the incentivized route(s) for a minimum of 6 months, the A ir Carrier can provide documented proof that the incentivized route(s) is/are not viable.
Stipulations for Incentive Fee Waivers are as follows:
1. Incentive Fee Waivers will be available to FAA Part 121 Signatory and Non- Signatory Airlines with a signed Airport Use and Lease Agreement, a written confirmation of the new service, and an executed Memorandum of Agreement for any incentives provided in this program.
2. The Airline will be eligible for incentives from the first day of service for up to 24 months depending on level of service as outlined in applicable incentive options.
At the conclusion of the incentive period, the Air Carrier will be invoiced, and must pay, the landing fees and terminal rentals according to the Airport’s published Schedule of Rates, Fees, and Charges as required by its Airport Use and Lease Agreement for the remainder of the contract term for each route.
3. Terminal Waivers in Options 1- 6 include Hold room/Parking fees. Airlines with a Signatory agreement will receive credits based on the signatory per -turn hold room/parking fee for the type of gate used (jet bridge vs. ground boarding) for the incentivized flights.
4. New Entrant Airlines may receive up to 12 months of full Terminal Space Rent waivers of leased space which includes Ticket Counter & Queue, Airline Ticket Office, and Baggage Service Office depending on level of service as outlined in Incentive Option 7. This does not include the Special Capital Project Fee, Signatory Joint Use Fees, or the Non-Signatory Terminal Fee.
5. Incentives apply only to new scheduled service that results in an increase in the number of total flights offered at PSP by the Air Carrier at the time the new service is announced. If an Air Carrier launches new service, it qualifies for incentives only on the new route, not on the existing service. An Airline may not reduce frequency to, or cancel, a market it currently serves from PSP in order to launch service to a new airport.
6. If the Air Carrier reduces frequency of service below the required number of flight operations outlined in this Program, or ceases service on the incentivized route, prior to providing PSP service for the time period outlined in this program, the Air Carrier shall forfeit its right to claim any additional incentives for that route offered through this Program starting on the date service is reduced. Reducing frequencies on the route during the incentive period to less than an agreed upon level will reduce the amount of the financial incentive and/or result in a proportionate reimbursement to the Airport/City of Palm Springs for dollars already spent. The Airline will also forfeit any future incentives on their route(s) for a period of 24 Item 1C - 7
City Council Staff Report
March 24, 2022 – Page 8
PSP Air Service Incentive Program – 2022
months if it chooses to fully cease service on the route(s). If the Airline exits the PSP market entirely it will forfeit any future incentives for 24 months starting on the first day after the Airline ceased operations at PSP.
7. At no time shall the Airport /City of Palm Springs provide a rebate to an A irline for participating in this Program.
8. Airports within 150 nautical miles of PSP are not eligible for incentive options 1-5.
Airports more than 150 nautical miles from PSP are not eligible for incentive option
6. 9. For the purpose of determining eligibility, affiliated airlines, joint venture partners and predecessor and successor airlines in an airline merger or acquisition shall be treated as a single carrier and will not be considered a new entrant to PSP. A regional carrier is eligible for the Program if it markets and sells its service independent of a branded carrier which currently offers service at PSP.
10. If an Air Carrier receives benefits under the Program and exits a route, or the PSP market, during the incentive period, the A ir Carrier shall repay the Airport/City of Palm Springs the total amount of all incentives previously taken for the qual ified route(s). Such repayment shall be the Airport’s sole compensation and remedy for the Air Carrier’s reduction, termination, or discontinuance of flights/routes prior to the expiration of the incentive period. The Airport/City of Palm Springs, at its s ole discretion, may consider waiving repayment of incentive benefits if, after operating the route(s) for a minimum of 6 months, the A ir Carrier can provide documented proof that the incentivized route(s) is/are not viable.
11. All conditions for receiving incentives will be documented in the Memorandum of Agreement between the A irline and the Airport/City of Palm Springs and are subject to approval by the appropriate City of Palm Springs officials. The Memorandum of Agreement must be signed within 60 days of the inaugural flight.
Any carrier that fails to comply shall forego all incentives in this program.
12. Once budgeted funds for this Air Service Incentive Program, marketing and waivers, have been expended for the fiscal year, the program shall be suspended until additional funds are approved. The Airport/City of Palm Springs has the right to amend, modify, alter, or cancel this Air Service Incentive Program at any time without notice. Funds budgeted for this program shall be determined annually during the City of Palm Springs annual budget process. Funding levels may vary year to year.
13. Daily service must operate at least five days per week, and less-than-daily service must operate at least two days per week. Once an A irline announces service on an unserved route it will be considered served and any subsequent announcements by other Airlines will fall under the existing Airport incentives.

PSP Air Service Incentive Program – 2022
Pending approval of this program, marketing fund incentives will become available on July 1, 2022 , due to current fiscal year budget constraints . However, limited marketing funds may be available starting March 1, 2022, and Staff intends for Incentive Fee Waivers to be available as of March 1, 2022. This program is planned to be in place from March 1, 2022, through December 31, 2025, unless it is extended, suspended , or canceled by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Airport Fund 415 will forego the collection of revenue through incentive fee waivers, and it will provide marketing funds for qualified new air service. The amount of incentive waivers will not exceed $1,000,000 for the first fiscal year, and marketing incentive funds will not exceed $250,000 for the first fiscal year. The fiscal impact will be dependent upon the number of airlines that apply for the incentive program . During the City’s annual budget process, the amount for available waivers and marketing funds will be reviewed and provided to Council in the A irport’s budget for review and approval on an annual basis.

SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE ISSUANCE OF A LETTER IN SUPPORT OF A SSEMBLY BILL 1814 – TRANSPORTATION ELECTRIFICATION
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Office of Sustainability
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize issuance of a letter to Assemblymember Eduardo Garcia, Chair of the Assembly Utilities and Energy Committee, in support of AB 1814 relative to allowing Community Choice Aggregators (CCA’s) the option to become program administrators for the California Public Utilities Commission’s (CPUC) Transportation Electrification Program.
BACKGROUND:
Over the last decade, more than 11 million investor -owned utility (IOU) customers have transitioned from IOU electric service to Community Choice Aggregators (CCAs), which are local government -owned utilities that purchase electricity on behalf of their communities. The City of Palm Springs is a member of a CCA, Desert Community Energy (DCE), and DCE became the default energy provider for all Palm Springs customers in 2020. Southern California Edison (SCE), an IOU, still distributes power to customers.
AB 1814, introduced by Assemblymember Tim Grayson (D -Concord), would authorize CCAs such as DCE to submit applications to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to receive funding to administer transportation electrification programs in their service area. Access to additional funding would allow CCAs to increase and expand their electric vehicle (EV) programs, which will benefit DCE customers in Palm Springs and will help meet the State’s and City’s EV adoption goals. A letter of support will improve the chances that this important legislation will pass.
While the CP UC authorizes IOUs such as SCE to file applications to receive ratepayer funds for their transportation electrification programs, CCAs are not explicitly authorized to access these funds, despite CCA customers also paying into those funds. In some past years, IOUs have proposed more than $2 billion in funding for transportation electrification Item 1D - 1
City Council Staff Report
March 24, 2022 – Page 2
Letter of Support for AB 1814
programs, and the CPUC has approved at least $1 billion of that. Local communities and CCAs have little ability to tailor EV infrastructure and programs that are run through the IOUs, particularly for traditionally under-represented areas.
AB 1814 would explicitly authorize CCAs to file applications for programs and investments to accelerate widespread transportation electrification. To submit these applications, CCAs would have to meet the same requirements that IOUs are currently required to meet for program administration and oversight. This is how some CCAs participate in the CPUC’s energy efficiency programs. Access to these funds would allow CCAs to provide communities such as Palm Springs with expanded EV charging programs and pilots that complement the current options. The full text of the bill is available at the following link:
https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220AB1814 .
CVAG’s Executive Committee , chaired by Councilmember Holstege, adopted at its February 28 meeting CVAG’s 2022 Federal and State Legislative Platform, which supports policies, programs, and funding for electric vehicle charging infrastructure and increased use of electric vehicles in the region. The CVAG platform also supports increased investments of the state GHG reduction funds toward transportation projects to reduce transportation related GHG emissions.
FISCAL ANALYSIS:
There is no fiscal impact to the City as a result of issuing this letter.

Re: AB 1814 (Grayson) – SUPPORT
Dear Chair Garcia,
The City of Palm Springs is pleased to submit a letter of support for AB 1814, which would allow Community Choice Aggregators (CCAs) the option to become program administrators for the California Public Utilities Commission’s (CPUC) Transportation Electrification Program.
Over the last ten years, millions of utility customers have transitioned from investor-owned utilities (IOUs) to CCAs. The City of Palm Springs is a proud member of Desert Community Energy (DCE), and most of DCE’s customers are receiving 100% carbon-free power. Our city has made a commitment to reducing our carbon footprint and offering a choice in electricity service providers for the first time to our residents and businesses and is working together with DCE to address the climate crisis.
Transportation electrification is a vital component of California’s greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction strategy, as well as a key environmental priority for Palm Springs. The state GHG reduction goals are consistent with goals and objectives previously adopted by the Palm Springs City Council, including promoting opportunities that benefit energy consumers, expanding use of electric vehicles, reducing GHG emissions, increasing renewable energy usage, and advancing climate action and resilience.
Today, all customers pay into the programs administered by the CPUC, but only IOUs can access those funds to support their programs. Importantly, under AB 1814 CCAs would have to apply for the funds in the same manner that IOUs do. DCE supports AB 1814 because it would correct this funding inequity, allow DCE customers to fully benefit from the programs their monthly bills support, and thus ensure ratepayer fairness for CCA communities such as Palm Springs.
That is why we strongly support this bill and thank you for moving forward with this important legislation.
If you have questions, or wish to discuss our position, please do not hesitate to contact Geoff Kors, Palm Springs City Council Member, at [email protected] .

AB 1814
Transportation Electrification Funds: Community Choice Aggregators Summary:
AB 1814 would authorize Community Choice
Aggregators (CCAs) to submit applications to the
California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to
receive funding to administer transportation
electrification programs in their service areas.
Background:
California has held lofty initiatives of meeting
stringent air quality and climate change targets. A
major component in meeting these targets are the
state’s transportation objectives to achieve five million zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) on the road by 20301
and 250,000 electric vehicle charging stations by
20252. These are essential because the transportation
sector contributes a large percentage of nitrogen
emissions, diesel particulate matter, and statewide
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
The CPUC plays a critical role in achieving these
emission targets. Under their authority to regulate
Investor-Owned Utilities (IOUs), they are directing
strategic investments for transportation electrification projects, designing electricity rates, adopting vehicle- grid integration policy and pilot programs, and
conducting program evaluation and interagency
coordination to ensure strategically coordinated ZEVs
investments.3
Alternative to IOUs, CCAs are local government
entities that supply energy needs for their
communities, offering an alternative and tailored
choice in the market and serve over 11 million
customers in more than 200 cities and counties. CCAs
can provide the communities that they serve with
competitively priced, clean energy choices while
reinvesting revenues into projects and programs,
supporting the local economy, such as offering
complementary programs such as EV charging and
battery storage.

2 https://www.ca.gov/archive/gov39/2012/03/23/news17472/index.html Problem:
The California Energy Commission (CEC) has
assessed California’s electric vehicle charging
infrastructure rollout and determined that the state will be almost 1 million chargers short of what will be
required to support the state’s 2035 EV adoption goals.
While CPUC authorizes IOUs to file applications to
receive ratepayer funded transportation electrification program funding, CCAs are not explicitly authorized
in existing law to access these funds, despite CCA
customers also paying into these same funds. As a
result, local leaders have little ability to tailor electric vehicle infrastructure and programs to serve residents
and businesses, particularly in traditionally
underrepresented areas.
Solution:
AB 1814 would explicitly authorize CCAs to file
applications for programs and investments to
accelerate widespread transportation electrification. In order to submit these applications, CCAs would be
regulated to meet all of the same requirements that
IOUs are currently required to meet.
In order to meet the state’s EV adoption goals, CCAs
must also be included in the solution. CCAs should be
given the opportunity to apply for funding through
CPUC for transportation electrification projects as a
means of potentially addressing energy needs as
identified by specific communities. By creating parity
within IOUs and CCAs, the state may be able to meet
our GHG emission reduction goals in the
transportation sector.

Award City Project 19-19 – City Yard Roof Replacement
December 15 and December 22, 2021, Staff advertised the Project for bids in The Desert Sun. The contract documents were provided free of charge to prospective bidders.
On February 2, 2022, the Engineering Division received seven bids from the following contractors:
Company Location Bid Amount
A Plus Roofing and Construction, Inc. San Diego, CA $200,000 Al Miller & Sons Roofing, Inc. Cathedral City, CA $257,490 A. Preman Roofing, Inc. San Diego CA $ 337,000
Rite-Way Roof Corporation Fontana, CA $368,407
Best Contracting Services, Inc. Gardena, CA $ 427,110 Chapman Coast Roof Co., Inc. Fullerton, CA $444,648
Comm. Waterproofing Systems, Inc. Santa Ana, CA $ 460,000 A Plus Roofing and Construction, Inc. submitted the lowest responsive, responsible bid in the amount of $2 00,000. Staff is requesting an additional $50,000 as contingency to cover any incidental construction related items that may occur. The engineer’s estimate for the Project was $195,000.
Local Business Preference Compliance
Section 7.09.030 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code (“PSMC”), “Local Business Preference Program”, requires prime contractors to use good faith efforts to sub-contract the supply of materials and equipment to local business enterprises and to sub- contract services to businesses whose work force resides within the Coachella Valley. A Plus Roofing and Construction, Inc. is not considered a local business but has demonstrated sufficient evidence of good faith efforts to subcontract the supply of materials to l ocal businesses.
Bid Protest
On February 9, 2022, the second low bidder (Al Miller & Sons Roofing, Inc.), submitted a Bid Protest requesting that the bid submitted by A Plus Roofing and Construction, Inc., be found non- responsive. The basis for this request was that the low bidder was not a certified installer for the roofing materials indicated in the project specifications. This protest was determined by the City Engineer, City Attorney and City Manager to be without merit as the City only indicated the use of specific or proprietary materials in order to establish the type, function and quality of the products required. Al Miller & Sons Roofing, Inc. was notified of this determination in writing in accordance with the applicable Municipal Code regarding bid protests.
Bid Analysis
Staff reviewed all bid documents submitted by the apparent low bidder and determined that A Plus Roofing and Construction, Inc. complies with the instructions to bidders and has submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid. Staff recommends that the City Council approve the bid submitted by A Plus Roofing and Construction, Inc.

FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Department of Special Program Compliance
SUMMARY:
Aw
ard of this contract to GovOS will streamline the City’s current short-term vacation rental administrative and compliance processes. The Department of Special Program Compliance (Department) administers the Vacation Rental P rogram consisting of over 2,000 registered vacation rentals.
RECOMMENDATION:

cording to the California Secretary of State, GovOS, Inc. is a Delaware Corporation registered in the State of California whose corporate officers are Michael Crosno as CEO, George Williams as CFO and George Doehner as Secretary. A copy of the Public Integrity Disclosure Form is included as Attachment 2.
BACKGROUND:
As
of January 31, 2022, t he City of Palm Spring s’ total vacation rental registrants was 2,317, including homesharing registrants. Each registrant annually applies for a Vacation Rental Registration Certificate with the Department of Special Programs and remits monthly Transient Occupancy Tax to the Finance Department. On average t he Department processes 193 applications monthly , receiving all applications by paper submission and recording each application on multiple spreadsheets. Depending on Item 1G - 1

Short-Term Vacation Rental Compliance Services
volume, processing times for a Vacation Rental Registration Certificate can vary between 30, 45, 60 or 90 days.
Each owner, or the owner’s agent, is responsible for submitting a Contract Summary prior to each short-term vacation rental occupancy. Currently, the Department provides a web platform that allows submission of a Contract Summary online. This web form has limitations and is subject to data entry errors, limiting the effectiveness of data received.
When the Vacation Rental Compliance Department was created in late 2016 and early 2017, there were five employees: two Compliance Officials, two Account Technicians II, and a Senior Account Technician. With the creation of the Department, the Vacation Rental Compliance Department merged with adult -use related cannabis administration and compliance, and managed parking. Today, there are six employees: a Director, an Executive Program Administrator, two Account Technicians II, a Senior Account Technician, and an Administrative Secretary. As each of these programs has their own respective demands, additional technological support is needed to maintain and streamline vacation rental administration.
The City of Palm Springs presently has a contract services agreement with Central Communications Corporation to provide a 24/7 v acation rental compliance call center , which will expire March 29, 2022. T he contract with GovOS will provide a 24/7 hotline service.

On N
ovember 24, 2021, City of Palm Springs posted a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Short Term Compliance Services. Eight prospective bidders registered for the RFP and two companies submitted proposals by the deadline of December 21, 2021.

Item 1I - 9
Resolution No. 23963
H. On February 3, 2016, the City Council conducted a public hearing in accordance with applicable law to consider historic district designation of the Sandcliff Garden Apartment Condominiums.
I. The proposed historic d:str!Gt designation is considered e projeci. pursuant to th~ terms of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA} and has been determined to be Categorically Exempt from further evaluation under CEQA as a Class 31 exemption (historic resources restoration / rehabilitation) pursuant to Section 15331 of the CEQA Guidelines.
J. Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 8.05.160, the City Council, in evaluating a historic district application, must find that the designation of the site or district supports or furthers the purpose of the historic preservation ordinance. As stated in Section
8.05.010, "Purpose and Authority" the Historic Preservation ordinance is " ... For the purpose of preserving areas and specific buildings of the city which reflect elements of its cultural, social, economic, political, architectural and archaeological history. This chapter is intended to stabilize and improve buildings, structures or areas which are considered to be of historical, architectural, archaeological or ecological value, to foster civic beauty, to strengthen the local economy and to promote the use of specific buildings for the education and welfare of the citizens." The Sandcliff Garden Apartment Condominium complex (SGAC) reflect elements of the City's cultural and architectural history as explained in the defining criteria outlined below including being representative of a particular period in local history and embodying distinctive characteristics of a building type and architectural style. The proposed designation of the Sandcliff complex as a historic district is supported because it imbues aspects of the cultural, social, economic and architectural history and development of the City. It possesses a high-degree of integrity in terms of its ability to convey its historic significance in the context of the social and physical development of Palm Springs and the modern period of architecture for which Palm Springs is well known. Therefore the proposed historic district designation conforms to the required finding.
K. Pursuant to Municipal Code Chapter 8.05.020 ('Definitions'), in order for an area within the City to be considered for possible historic district designation, it must contain a number of structures, natural features or sites that possess " ... historic, architectural, archaeological, cultural or aesthetic significance.".
The City Council finds that the Sandcliff Garden Apartment Condominiums Historic District possesses a number of structures and features that possess historic, Item 1I - 10
Resolution No. 23963
Page3
architectural, cultural and aesthetic significance as defined in the following criteria outlined in PSMC 8.05.020:
Criteria #3. That reflects or exemplifies a particular period of the national. ste!s c.-Joclil hi:;tory;
The buildings within the proposed Sandcliff Historic District reflect the Modern Period in local architectural history; specifically the period of significance proposed is from the early 1950's to the late 1960's. It was during this period that the City of Palm Springs, in response to rapid population growth following World War 11, studied the inventory of housing types that existed in the city and began establishing more multi-family zoning designations in many of the open, undeveloped parts of the city. This in turn encouraged a greater variety of housing types, including garden style apartments to be developed.
The development of the garden apartments at Sandcliff are a response to the significant increases in growth in population that Palm Springs was experiencing after World War II and the shortage of high quality, affordable housing stock. As noted on page 10 of the historic resource report, from 1950 to 1956, the population in Palm Springs grew by an astonishing 60%. The City responded to this dramatic increase in population by creating more medium and high-density residential zones and in turn, developers responded by producing literally hundreds of garden style homes and multi family apartment and condominium complexes. The FHA began to insure mortgages on condominium developments in 1961, making the financing of "apartment homes" affordable and attractive to a growing number of families and individuals.
Criteria 4. That embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period or method of construction;
The buildings in the proposed Sandcliff Historic District reflect a low-cost approach to home construction. Stripped of ornament, high quality finishes, expensive details or lavish materials, the developers of the homes at Sandcliff focused their resources on providing technological features that were advanced for their time, and amenities such as built-in sound systems, built in-kitchen gadgets, contemporary appliances, air conditioning and sunken tubs.
Buyers in the early 1960's in Palm Springs were comparing features and value of the post-and-beam construction common in the housing tracts that the Alexander Construction Company began in the mid-1950's with the conventional "stick-built" frame construction of the Sandcliff homes; which were typically better insulated, offered larger kitchens with more gadgets, appliances and storage. Not only does the construction typology of Sandcliff reflect the market demand at that time for convenience and "state- Item 1I - 11
Resolution No. 23963
Page4
of-the-art" gadgetry, it is also reflective of the fiercely competitive nature of producing affordable housing. That which wasn't essential for convenience or comfort within the proposed units was stripped away, leaving the physical architecture of the buildings simple, clean, and uncluttered. During the period in which Sandcliff was built, modern architecture, with its "les~ is m,:>rG" mcuitra \i"v·as er.1braced i.~•-bo~li Jev~bpei·~ ~9eki'.·,g to maximize profits and home-buyers seeking to minimize the time and effort required for maintenance and upkeep.
L. The boundaries of the proposed historic district are Barona Road on the west, Sandcliff Road on the north and east, and Morongo Trail on the south.
M. The Sandcliff Garden Home Apartment Condominiums Historic District's period of significance is roughly from the early 1950's to the mid-1960's.
N. The context within which the Sandcliff Garden Home Apartment Condominiums Historic District is identified with the post-World War II growth of Palm Springs as a worldwide vacation and resort destination. The period following World War II saw increasing seasonal and permanent population in Palm Springs and from a 1950's report on the housing stock of the City it was determined that a shortage of affordable homes existed. Many areas in the City were re-zoned from low-density to medium and high-density residential zones to encourage an increase in production of different housing stock options.
0. Contributing, Non-Contributing, and Defining Historic Characteristics or Elements The physical character-defining features of this site include the following:
1. The strong horizontal roof planes of all buildings and structures on the site, emphasized by the thin fascia of the roof structure and deep patio overhangs, interspersed with simple rectilinear volumes of the kitchens which protrude above the roof fascia to provide visual balance to the overall composition.
2. Narrow natural-anodized aluminum-frame windows and sliding glass doors.
3. The variety of concrete screen block privacy walls at patios and terraces.
4. The lightly raked stucco accent panels above and below the kitchen windows.
The contributing elements of the complex are recommended as follows:
1. All residential structures within the Sandcliff complex are recommended to be designated as Contributing Structures and individually treated as Item 1I - 12
Resolution No. 23963
Class 1 historic structures pursuant to Section 8.05.125 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code.
2. The swimming pool and pool cabana structure are recommended for designation as Contributing Structures and treated as Class 1 historic struct .. ies.
The non-contributing elements are recommended as follows:
1. The driveways, carports and service areas along Sandcliff road.
2. The common area landscape.
3. Any new or modified privacy walls, canopies, shade trellises, surface mounted conduit, antenna, satellite dishes, floor tile at patios, screen doors of varying designs, steel picket gates of varying designs, vinyl replacement windows and doors.
P. Integrity. The factor of integrity, while not a requirement of the Municipal Code Findings, is a factor that is considered in applications made to the National Trust for Historic Places and in certain state historic designations. The report concludes that the buildings within the proposed Sandcliff historic district have undergone limited alterations and that most of the character-defining features survive. Thus, the sites within the district retain a high degree of historic integrity.
Q. The specific parcels proposed for inclusion in the Sandcliff Historic District are as follows:
Assessor Parcel Numbers 510-040-001 to 040 and the common lot-041
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA HEREBY RESOLVES:

Re: 1870 South Barona Road, Palm Springs, CA 92264--SANDCLIFF
Dear Mr. Ken Lyon,
I am writing to apply for a Mills Act contract for 1870 South Barona Road, Palm Springs, CA 92264.
Thank you for your help with this process.
As requested, attached please find photographs of the exterior of the unit, the legal description of the unit, and proof of ownership as noted in the title documents. Thank you for letting me know the application fee is $1,192 payable to the City of Palm Springs. I can give you my credit card for payment.
In consultation with the HOA Board President and the Management Company, I can confirm that the capital improvement projects to the unit that will maintain the maintenance and preservation of the unit are handled by the HOA as part of ongoing and long-term maintenance and improvement plans.
This includes annual exterior painting, as well as scheduled window replacement, roof replacement, AC replacement, etc. My unit has original screen doors, and there are no surface mounted conduit and/or other paraphernalia (such as retractable awnings or other devices) that detracts from the historic integrity of the unit or the condo property overall. You will see this in the attached photographs.
You will note that one of the three patios for the property is currently bordered by foliage. It is my understanding that this may have originally been bordered by breeze blocks (matching the other two exterior patios and others in the complex). In time I plan to apply to the City of Palm Springs for a permit to place matching breeze blocks at the perimeter of this patio. The HOA is supportive of this and had already discussed it with the previous owner.
Also enclosed with this application is a letter from the HOA indicating willingness to enter into the Mills Act contract with me and the City.
Please let me know if I can provide any further information. I can be reached at the phone/email below.
I can be reached at the cell number below.

AMOUNT OF $ 17,763.33 FOR THE DESERT HIGHLAND PARK SHADE STRUCTURE PROJECT, CITY PROJECT NO. 21-22
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Engineering Division
SUMMARY:
This action will authorize the purchase and installation of one (1) shade structure from Shade Structures Inc., dba USA Shade & Fabric Structures, a subsidiary of Play Power Inc. (Shade Structures Inc.). The structure will provide aesthetically appealing and functional shade for the Desert Highland Park .

The shade structure project was approved by the Parks and Recreation Commission and is funded by a Grant from Proposition 68. This item is being brought forward to City Council because the cumulative amount awarded to this contractor , using the City’s Cooperative Purchasing Program, will exceed the City Manager’s signing authority.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. In accordance with Section 7.09.010 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code, "Cooperative Purchasing Programs", authorize the purchase and installation of one (1) shade structure from Shade Structures Inc., dba USA Shade & Fabric Structures, a Texas corporation, pursuant to Cooperative Purchasing Contract 030117- LTS, for an amount of $17,763.33; and

BACKGROUND:
Proposition 68 Per Capita Grant Program:
In 2018, the State of California invested in the largest grant funding for critically underserved communities with the passage of Proposition 68: California Drought, Water, Parks, Climate, Coastal Protection and Outdoor Access for All Act. Recognizing the need for underserved communities to have equitable access to outdoor recreational facilities, the bond also provides funds for new parks that will help attract new and diverse visitors.
The Proposition 68 Per Capita Grant program was released on July 7, 2020.
The General Per Capita Program funds are available for local park rehabilitation, and creation and improvement grants to local governments on a per capita basis . The City received an appropriation of $132,737.
The per capita grant covers 100% of all eligible costs provided the project is located in an area identified as a disadvantage community, otherwise the grant requires a 20% match of local funds.
In evaluating shade structure options, Staff recommends larger and more structurally sound shade structures to withstand the elem ents ( Figure 1 ). The proposed shade structure consist s of a steel -supporting structure and commercial -grade UV inhibited fabric as the primary shading element. The shade structure will be 16’ x 24’ in size, and will protect patrons from harmful UV rays, wind, dust, and rain. The structure will allow air to pass through the fabric thus keeping the area underneath the structure cooler than a wood or metal structure, will extend the life of the bleacher equipment they shade, and will improve guest comfort levels at the parks. The proposed location of the Shade Structure at Desert Highland Park is shown in Figure 2 below.

STAFF ANALYSIS:
Shade Structures Inc. is a leading full -service, design/build commercial shade manufacturer in the nation. Shade structures provide needed protection for our park patrons from the harmful effects of the sun and protection from the elements. Each structure is custom designed and engineered for the most effective approach to enhance spectating at play areas.
Cooperative Purchasing Agreements/Waiver for Bidding Requirements:
Pursuant to the provisions of the Procurement Ordinance, 7.09.010, the City Council may authorize the acquisition of shade structures through a joint powers or other cooperative purchasing program. Procurement Staff w orked with Engineer ing Staff to review the Sourcewell cooperative contract 030117-L TS with Shade Structures Inc. and determined that it complies with the City's procurement requirements. Utilization of the Sourcewell cooperative contract would likely be more efficient than what the City would obtain if pursued through the bidding process.
Staff has reviewed the scope of services and finds that Shade Structures Inc. is offering the City of Palm Springs competitive prices and recommends that the City Council approve the agreement with Shade Structures, Inc., pursuant to the cooperative purchasing agreement.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines Section 15301 “Existing Facilities”, Class 1 projects consist of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public structures, facilities, mechanical equipment or topographical features involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. Therefore, Staff has determined that the Desert Highland Park Shade Structure, City Project No. 21-22, is considered categorically exempt from CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT:
On March 11, 2021, City Council approved Item 1D, Funding Agreement A8696 between the City and California Department of Parks and Recreation (CDPR). The agreement stipulates that CDPR will reimburse 100% eligible project costs.
With this action, sufficient funds are budgeted and available to approve the agreement with Shade Structures Inc. in the amount of $17,763.33.

12) Concealed Conditions: ”Concealed conditions” include, without limitation, water, gas, sprinkler, electrical and sewage lines, post tension cables, and steel rebar. This agreement is based solely on observations the Company was able to make either by visual inspection or by drawings and/or plans submitted by Owner at the time this agreement was bid. If additional Concealed Conditions are discovered once work has commenced, which were not visible at the time this proposal was bid, Company will stop work and indicate these unforeseen Concealed Conditions to Purchaser or Owner so that Purchaser and Company can execute a Change Order for any additional work. In any event, any damage caused by or to unforeseen Concealed Conditions is the sole responsibility of the Purchaser and Company shall not be held liable for any such damage. Soil conditions are assumed to be soil that does not contain any water, hard rock (such as limestone, caliche, etc.), rocks larger than 4 inches in diameter, or any other condition that will require additional labor, equipment and/or materials not specified by the Purchaser or Owner in the bidding process. Any condition requiring additional labor, equipment, and/or materials to complete the drilling or concrete operations will require a Change Order before Company will complete the process. Price quotes are based on a drilled pier footing. Any variation will incur additional charges (i.e. spread footings, concrete mat, sand, water, landfill, etc.). Costs for footing and installation do not include any allowance for extending below frost lines (the additional costs for which vary by geographical region).
Insurance Requirements: Company is not required to provide any insurance coverage in excess of Company’s standard insurance. A copy of the Company’s standard insurance is available for your review prior to acceptance of the Company’s proposal.
Payment: Terms of payment are defined in the “Pricing Details” section and are specific to this contract. For purposes of this agreement, “Completion” is defined as being the point at which the Structure is suitable for its intended use, the issue of occupancy consent, or a final building department approval is issued, whichever occurs first. Progress billing and payment will be required. All payments must be made to Shade Structures, Inc., P.O. Box 734158, Dallas, TX 75373-4158. Company may use all remedies available to it under current laws including, but not limited to, filing of liens against the property and using a collection agency or the courts to secure the collection of the outstanding debt.
Lien Releases: Upon request by Owner, Company will issue appropriate partial lien releases as corresponding payments are received from Purchaser, but prior to receiving final payment from Purchaser or Owner. Company will provide a full release of liens upon receipt of final payment. In accordance with state laws, Company reserves the right to place a lien on the property if final payment has not been received 10 days prior to the filing deadline for liens.
Site Plan Approval, Permit/s, Permit Fees, Plans, Engineering Drawings, and Surveying : Site plan approval, permits, permit fees, plans, engineering drawings, and surveying are specifically excluded from this agreement and the Services unless specified under the “General Scope of Work”. The Company does not in any way warrant or represent that a permit or site plan approval for construction will be obtained. Sealed engineered drawings that are required but not included in the “General Scope of Work” will result in an additional cost to Purchaser.
Manufacturing & Delivery: Manufacturing lead-time from Company’s receipt of the “Notice To Proceed” is approximately 6 to 8 weeks for standard structures, and 8 to 12 weeks for custom structures. Delivery is approximately 1 week thereafter. Delivery of structures may be prior to or at start of assembly. Please note that these timelines do not include approval or permitting timeframes.
Returned Product, Deposits, and/or Cancelled Order: Within the first 45 days after shipment from our facility, all returned product(s) and cancelled orders are subject to a 50% restocking fee. No returns are available following this 45 day period. All deposits are non-refundable.

SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE THE PURCHASE OF THREE (3 ) SHADE STRUCTURES FROM SHADE STRUCTURES INC., A TEXAS CORPORATION, IN THE AMOUNT OF $ 100,946.36 FOR THE SWIM CENTER SHADE
STRUCTURES, CITY PROJECT NO. 21-32
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Engineering Division

(Shade Structures Inc.). The structures will provide aesthetically appealing and functional shade for visitors at the Swim Center. Shade Structures Inc. is affiliated with a governmental purchasing cooperative known as Sourcewell, a national cooperative purchasing contract that provides the City with reduced pricing.
The shade structure project was approved by the Parks and Recreation Commission and is funded by a Grant from Proposition 68.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. In accordance with Section 7.09.010 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code, "Cooperative Purchasing Programs", authorize the purchase and installation of three (3) shade structures from Shade Structures Inc. dba USA Shade & Fabric Structures, a Texas corporation, pursuant to Cooperative Purchasing Contract 030117- LTS, for an amount of $100,946.36; and

BACKGROUND:
Proposition 68 Per Capita Grant Program:
In 2018, the State of California invested in the largest grant funding for critically underserved communities with the passage of Proposition 68: California Drought, Water, Parks, Climate, Coastal Protection and Outdoor Access for All Act. Recognizing the need for underserved communities to have equitable access to outdoor recreational facilities, the bond also provides funds for new parks that will help attract new and diverse visitors.
The Proposition 68 Per Capita Grant program was released on July 7, 2020.
The General Per Capita Program funds are available for local park rehabilitation, and creation and improvement grants to local governments on a per capita basis. The City received an appropriation of $132,737.
The per capita grant covers 100% of all eligible costs provided the project is located in an area identified as a disadvantage community; otherwise, the grant requires a 20% match of local funds.
In evaluating shade structure options, Staff recommends larger and more structurally sound shade structures to withstand the elements ( Figure 1 ). The proposed shade structures consist of a steel supporting structure and commercial -grade UV inhibited fabric as the primary shading element. The shade structures will reduce exposure to the sun's harmful UV rays, and will protect patrons from wind, dust, and rain. The structures will allow air to pass through the fabric thus keeping the area underneath the structur e cooler than a wood or metal structure, will extend the life of the bleacher equipment they shade, and will improve guest comfort levels at the parks. The proposed locations for the Shade Structures at the Swim Center are shown in Figure 2 below.

FIGURE 2
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Shade Structures Inc. is a leading full -service, design/build commercial shade manufacturer in the nation. Shade structures provide needed protection for our park patrons from the harmful effects of the sun and protection from the elements. Each structure is custom designed and engineered for the most effective approach to enhance spectating at play areas. Shade structures are proposed for three locations at the Swim Center.
Cooperative Purchasing Agreements/Waiver for Bidding Requirements:
Pursuant to the provisions of the Procurement Ordinance, 7.09.010, the City Council may authorize the acquisition of shade structures through a joint powers or other cooperative purchasing program. Procurement Staff worked with Engineer ing Staff to review the Sourcewell cooperative contract 030117-L TS with Shade Structures Inc. and determined that it complies with the City's procurement requirements. Utilization of the Sourcewell cooperative contract would likely be more efficient than what the City would obtain if pursued through the bidding process.
Staff has reviewed the scope of services and finds that Shade Structures Inc. is offering the City of Palm Springs competitive prices and recommen ds that the City Council Item 1L - 3
City Council Staff Report

approve the agreement with Shade Structures, Inc., pursuant to the cooperative purchasing agreement.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
:
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines Section 15301 “Existing Facilities”, Class 1 projects consist of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public structures, facilities, mechanical equipment or topographical features involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use.
