2.0 REGULATORY FRAMEWORK
The regulatory framework identifies policies and plans administered by resource agencies pertaining to biological resources that are known to exist and/or have the potential to occur within the Project region.
2.1 FEDERAL REGULATIONS
2.1.1 Endangered Species Act of 1972.
The Federal Endangered Species Act (FESA), administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), provides protection to species listed as Threatened or Endangered, and critical habitat designated for the protection of such species. The FESA prohibits “take” of Threatened and Endangered species (including plants) except under certain circumstances and only with authorization from the USFWS through a permit under sections 4(d), 7, or 10(a) of the FESA. Under the FESA, take is defined as to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct.
Critical Habitat is defined in Section 3(5)(A) of the FESA as: (1) specific areas within the geographical area occupied by the species at the time of listing, on which are found those physical or biological features that are essential to the conservation of the listed species and that may require special management considerations or protection; and (2) specific areas outside the geographical area occupied by the species at the time of listing that are essential for the conservation of a listed species.
The FESA also provides protection to those species proposed to be listed under FESA or critical habitats proposed to be designated for such species. In addition to the listed species, the federal government also maintains lists of species that are neither formally listed nor proposed but could potentially be listed in the future. These federal candidate species include taxa for which substantial information on biological vulnerability and potential threats exist and are maintained to support the appropriateness of proposing to list the taxa as an Endangered or Threatened species.
2.1.2 Migratory Bird Treaty Act
The USFWS also administers the Federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) of 1918 (16 USC 703-711). Under the MBTA, it is unlawful to take, possess, buy, sell, purchase, or barter any migratory bird listed in 50 CFR 10, including feathers or other parts of birds, nests, eggs or products, except as allowed by implementing regulations (50 CFR 21). In 2017, Solicitor of the Department of the Interior issued a legal opinion (M-37050 or M-Opinion) stating that “The Migratory Bird Treaty Act Does Not Prohibit Incidental Take” which in effect revoked take protections under the MBTA. On January 5, 2021, the USFWS published a final rule that defined the scope of the MBTA stating that incidental take of birds resulting from an activity is not prohibited when the underlying purpose of that activity is not to take birds. On May 6, 2021, the USFWS announced a proposed rule to revoke the January 7 final regulation that limited the scope of the MBTA, in an effort to reinstate federal MBTA protections. The proposed rule is pending as of June 2021.

April 2022 (2202-1101)
- 2-2 -
In the interim, migratory birds are protected (for take) through AB 454 California Migratory Bird Protection Act (California Fish and Game Code 3513).
2.2 STATE REGULATIONS
2.2.1 California Fish and Game Code.
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) administers a number of laws and programs designed to protect plants, fish, and wildlife resources. Principal of these is the California Endangered Species Act of 1984 (CESA - Fish and Game Code Section 2050) that regulates the listing and take of State Endangered and Threatened species. CDFW also maintains lists of Candidate-Endangered species and Candidate-Threatened species. California candidate species are afforded the same level of protection as listed species. CDFW manages the California Native Plant Protection Act of 1977 (Fish and Game Code Section 1900, et seq.), which was enacted to identify, designate, and protect rare plants. The California Native Plant Society (CNPS) operates under a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the CDFW which outlines broad cooperation in rare plant assessment and protection and formalizes cooperative ventures such as data sharing and production of complementary information sources for rare plants.
2.3 LOCAL REGULATIONS
San Luis Obispo County (County) incorporates all USFWS, CDFW, Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) standards when assessing project impacts to vegetation, wildlife, and wetland habitats, as well as the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) evaluation process, when applicable. The County has developed a framework of land use policies and recommendations intended to reduce impacts to sensitive biological resources.
Oak trees are protected under San Luis Obispo County Land Use Ordinance, Title 22; Chapters 22.56 (Tree Preservation) and 22.58 (Oak Woodland Ordinance) (San Luis Obispo County 2021).

3.0 METHODS
Methods to collect biological resources information included a desktop review and field survey of the Biological Study Area (BSA), which encompassed the entire Project Site.
3.1 DESKTOP REVIEW
Prior to conducting the field survey, a query of the CDFW California Natural Diversity Data Base (CNDDB) was conducted to identify documented occurrences of special-status plant and wildlife species, and sensitive habitats within the vicinity of the BSA. The CNDDB is a continually refined and updated computerized inventory of rare animals, plants, and natural community location information in California, including species that are listed as federally and/or State endangered/threatened. All wildlife taxa listed with the CNDDB are considered “special animals” in which the CDFW is interested in tracking, regardless of their legal protection status.
The Project Site is located within the Templeton 7.5-minute United States Geological Survey (USGS) quadrangle, and the CNDDB search was focused on this and eight adjacent quadrangles within approximately ten miles of the BSA, including Paso Robles, Estrella, Creston, Santa Margarita, Atascadero, Morro Bay North, York Mountain, and Adelaida. The USFWS Critical Habitat database was also investigated to identify critical habitat for federally listed species within the BSA or surrounding region. In addition, the USFWS National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) was accessed to identify previously documented wetlands within the BSA or surrounding area.
3.2 FIELD SURVEYS
On March 31, 2022, Padre Biologists, Christina Santala and Shannon Gonzalez completed a field survey within the BSA focused on the existing biological resources, presence/absence of special-status plant and wildlife species and habitats, as well as the suitability of habitat to support these species within the BSA.
Field survey methods consisted of walking paths of opportunity throughout the BSA and recording wildlife species observed by visual observation using binoculars, indirect signs (e.g., tracks, scat, skeletal remains, and burrows), and/or auditory cues (i.e., calls and songs). Field notes on botanical resources and vegetation communities/habitats were also recorded. Field surveys were conducted in March, within the typical blooming period for most special-status plant species know to occur in the proposed Project region.
Vegetation within the BSA was divided and classified into vegetation types based on A Manual of California Vegetation, Second Edition (MCV2) (Sawyer, et. al., 2009), or described as site-specific vegetation and/or land use cover types not treated in the MCV2 (i.e., ruderal). All identifiable plant species observed within the BSA were documented. Plant specimens that were not positively identified in the field were further examined using appropriate botanical keys, including The Jepson Manual Vascular Plants of California (Baldwin et. al., 2012).

4.0 FINDINGS
The following discussion of biological resources includes those that were observed within the BSA, those identified in the desktop review, and resources that have the potential to occur based on the presence of suitable habitat. Supporting documentation includes Figure 4-1 – Biological Resources Assessment Results, Figure 4-2 – Regional Special-Status Biological Resources, Appendix A – Site Photographs, Appendix B – Plant List, Appendix C – Wildlife List, and Appendix D – CNDDB Results.
4.1 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
The Project Site is located on the corner of Nutwood Circle and Theatre Drive, just west of Highway 101 in the City of Paso Robles, San Luis Obispo County, California. The Project Site is a vacant lot surrounded by residential and commercial development, with areas of previous disturbance (e.g., tilling, stockpiling, grading, etc.) and old infrastructure throughout the property.
The topography of the area is level to moderately sloping and is situated on the eastern edge of the Santa Lucia Range.
4.2 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES
4.2.1 Botanical
A list of plant species identified in the BSA during the March 2022 field survey is provided in Appendix B – Plant List. Vegetation communities documented to occur within the Project Site are described in the following paragraphs.
Wild oats and annual brome grassland (Avena spp. – Bromus spp. Herbaceous Semi-Natural Alliance). The Wild oats and annual brome grassland alliance occurs in all topographic settings in foothills, waste places, rangelands, and openings in woodlands. This alliance is characterized by presence of slender wild oats (Avena barbata), wild oats (Avena fatua), false brome (Brachypodium distachyon), rattlesnake grass (Briza maxima), ripgut brome (Bromus diandrus), soft chess (Bromus hordeaceus) and/or foxtail barley (Hordeum murinum) as dominant or co-dominant with other non-natives in the herbaceous layer; cover is open to continuous (Sawyer et. al., 2009). As observed during the field survey, this alliance occurred throughout the BSA. Dominant to co-dominant species included ripgut brome, wild oats, Mediterranean vetch (Vicia benghalensis), tocalote (Centaurea melitensis), red brome (Bromus madritensis ssp. rubens), redstem filaree (Erodium cicutarium), with sparse to moderate occurrences of common fiddleneck (Amsinckia intermedia), telegraph weed (Heterotheca grandiflora) and wild radish (Raphanus sativus). There were several sapling and mature valley oak (Quercus lobata) trees scattered throughout this vegetation alliance within the BSA. This alliance is not considered sensitive by the CDFW and is not protected under CEQA.

Ornamental. Within this Report, Ornamental is a site-specific vegetation classification that describes the planted landscape trees and shrubs within the BSA. As observed during the field survey, tree species included blue gum (Eucalyptus globulus), pine (Pinus sp.) and Coast live oak (Quercus agrifolia). Ornamental trees may provide suitable foraging and nesting habitat for fauna.
This vegetation community is not considered sensitive by the CDFW and is not protected under CEQA.
Ruderal. Within this Report, Ruderal is a term used to describe the unpaved parking area within the BSA. This disturbed area can support vegetative cover consisting primarily of disturbance adapted plant species (ruderal species). As observed during the field survey, the Ruderal area consisted of bare ground with patches of non-native species including cheeseweed (Malva parviflora), redstem filaree, and barley. This vegetation community is not considered sensitive by the CDFW and is not protected under CEQA.
4.2.2 Wildlife
Wildlife was identified during the survey through indirect sign and direct observations of individuals. Species observed and detected included western fence lizard (Sceloporus occidentalis), California scrub jay (Aphelocoma californica), acorn woodpecker (Melanerpes formicivorus), house finch (Haemorhous mexicanus), and Botta’s pocket gopher (Thomomys bottae). A complete list of observed wildlife species can be found in Appendix C – Wildlife Species Observed within the BSA.
4.2.3 Aquatic Resources
Based on the results of the desktop review and field observations, no aquatic resources were identified within the Project Site; however, several aquatic features were identified within one mile of the BSA. The NWI recorded features include a Riverine unnamed drainage approximately 0.07 miles south, the Salinas River approximately 0.8 miles east, a Freshwater Emergent Wetland approximately 0.3 miles northwest, and two Freshwater Ponds approximately
0.4 miles west of the BSA (USFWS, 2022b). In addition, an unrecorded drainage basin approximately 0.01 miles west of the Project Site was observed within the BSA during the March 2022 survey. This man-made basin appeared to collect water run-off from the street drain off Nutwood Circle and was vegetated with plant species similar to the surrounding grassland including tocalote, redstem filaree, and annual grasses. A fenced drainage basin was also present within the Project Site and supported vegetation similar to the surrounding grassland. No water was present in these aquatic features.
4.2.4 Oak Trees
Six valley oak trees of varying diameter at breast height (DBH) were observed throughout the Project Site (Figure 4-1). DBH for the six oak trees were as follows: 54 inches, 48 inches, 48 inches, 8 inches, 4 inches, and 4 inches.
4.3 SPECIAL-STATUS BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES
Results of the nine-quadrangle (approximately ten miles surrounding the Project Site) CNDDB query for regional occurrences of special-status plant and wildlife species, and sensitive vegetation communities can be found in Appendix D (CDFW, 2022a). This Report focuses on the special-status plants and wildlife biological resources within five miles of the BSA (Project region) Attachment 9

4.3.1 Special-Status Habitats
No USFWS-Designated Critical Habitat overlaps the BSA. The nearest occurrence is vernal pool fairy shrimp (Branchinecta lynchi) USFWS-Designated Critical Habitat approximately
5.4 miles northeast of the BSA (USFWS, 2022a).
Valley Oak Woodland, a sensitive natural community defined by CDFW, is documented within five miles of the BSA; however, this natural community is not present within the Project Site (CDFW, 2022a).
4.3.2 Special-Status Botanical
Special-status plants are either listed as Endangered or Threatened under FESA or CESA, considered Rare under the California Native Plant Protection Act, or considered rare (but not legally listed) by resources agencies, professional organizations, and the scientific community under the following categories:
1. Plants listed or proposed for listing as Threatened or Endangered under the Federal Endangered Species Act (50 CFR 17.12 for listed plants and various notices in the Federal Register for proposed species,).
2. Plants that are candidates for possible future listing as Threatened or Endangered under the Federal Endangered Species Act (Federal Register October 10, 2019).
3. Plants that meet the definitions of rare or endangered species under the CEQA (State CEQA Guidelines, Section 15380).
4. Plants considered by the CNPS to be "Rare, Threatened, or Endangered" in California (Ranks 1B and 2 in CNPS, 2020).
5. Plants listed by CNPS as plants about which we need more information and plants of limited distribution (Ranks 3 and 4 in CNPS, 2020).
6. Plants listed or proposed for listing by the State of California as Threatened or Endangered under the California Endangered Species Act (14 CCR 670.5).
7. Plants listed under the California Native Plant Protection Act (California Fish and Game Code 1900 et seq.).
8. Plants considered sensitive by other Federal agencies (i.e., U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management), state and local agencies or jurisdictions.
9. Plants considered sensitive or unique by the scientific community or occurring at the limits of their natural range (State CEQA Guidelines).
Based on the CNDDB query completed as part of the desktop review, there were 43 special-status plant species documented within approximately ten miles of the BSA (Appendix D).
Of these species, one species, Lemmon's jewelflower (Caulanthus lemmonii), had a greater potential to occur within the Project Site based on proximity of documented occurrences (less than five miles) and presence of generally suitable habitat (grassland) within the BSA.

No special-status plant species were observed during the March 2022 field survey. The survey was conducted within the typical blooming period for potentially occurring special-status plant species of the region and would be identifiable in March. Based on the field survey observations and habitat conditions (dominance of disturbance-adapted plant species) no special-status plant species are likely to occur within the Project Site.
4.3.3 Special-Status Wildlife
Special-status wildlife species are either listed as Endangered or Threatened under FESA or CESA, or considered rare (but not formally listed) by resources agencies, professional organizations, and the scientific community under the following categories:
x Animals listed or proposed for listing as Threatened or Endangered under the Federal Endangered Species Act (50 CFR 17.11 for listed animals and various notices in the Federal Register for proposed species).
x Animals that are candidates for possible future listing as Threatened or Endangered under the Federal Endangered Species Act (Federal Register October 10, 2019). x Animals that meet the definitions of rare or endangered species under the CEQA (State CEQA Guidelines, Section 15380)
x Animal considered Species of Special Concern (SSC) by CDFW (Shuford and Gardali, 2008 for birds; Williams, 1986 for mammals; Moyle et al., 2015 for fish; and Thomson et al., 2016 for amphibians and reptiles).
x Animals listed or proposed for listing by the State of California as Threatened and Endangered under the California Endangered Species Act (14 CCR 670.5). x Animal species that are fully protected in California (California Fish and Game Code, Section 3511 [birds], 4700 [mammals], and 5050 [reptiles and amphibians]). x Animal species protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act (as amended in 1994).
x Birds of Conservation Concern. Migratory and nonmigratory bird species (beyond those already designated as federally Threatened or Endangered) that represent the USFWS highest conservation priorities in effort to draw attention to species in need of conservation action (Shuford and Gardali, 2008).
x Birds on the CDFW Watch List include “Taxa to Watch” (Shuford and Gardali, 2008) 1) not on the current Special Concern list but were on previous lists and they have not been state listed under CESA; 2) were previously state or federally listed and now are on neither list; or 3) are on the list of “Fully Protected” species.
Based on the CNDDB query completed as part of the desktop review, there were 38 special-status wildlife species documented within approximately ten miles of the BSA. Of those 38, there are three special-status wildlife species with the potential to occur within the Project Site based on suitable habitat and regional (less than five miles) documented occurrences. These species include Northern California legless lizard (Anniella pulchra), American badger (Taxidea taxus), and San Joaquin kit fox (Vulpes macrotis mutica).

No special-status wildlife species were observed during the March 2022 field survey.
However, the Project Site may provide suitable habitat to support the special-status wildlife species listed above. The following sections provide an overview of the general habitat requirements for these species and further detail on the potential for each of these species to occur in the Project Site.
4.3.3.1 Reptiles
Northern legless lizard is a predominantly subterranean lizard that occupies moist, warm, and loose soils with vegetative cover (Stebbins, 2003). It has the potential to utilize areas of the Project Site that have dense leaf litter. Refer to Section 6.0 for recommended mitigation measures for protection of Northern legless lizard during Project activities.
4.3.3.2 Mammals
American badger is a CDFW Species of Special Concern and San Joaquin kit fox is listed as Federally Endangered and State Threatened. The annual grassland habitat, and presence of small mammal (ground squirrel) burrows indicate that general conditions within the Project Site are suitable for both species. No large burrows or sign (i.e., scat, tracks, prey remains, etc.) were identified during the March 2022 survey. Further, the Project Site is situated adjacent to Highway 101 and is surrounded by residential and commercial development that creates significant dispersal barriers for these species. However, because there are documented occurrences within five miles, and generally suitable grassland habitat is, there is a low potential for American badger and San Joaquin kit fox to occur within the Project Site. Refer to Section 6.0 for recommended mitigation measures for protection of these species during Project activities.
4.3.3.3 Nesting Birds
No nesting bird activity was observed within the BSA during the March 2022 field survey; however, trees and vegetation present within or adjacent to the Project Site provide suitable nesting habitat for a variety of bird species. Nesting birds and their nests/eggs are protected under the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 and California Fish and Game Code. Nesting bird season generally occurs between February 1 and August 31. Refer to Section 6.0 for recommended mitigation measures for protection of potentially nesting birds during Project activities.

5.0 POTENTIAL IMPACTS
The proposed Project would include development of most of the Project Site. Grading and construction activities have the potential to impact special-status biological resources that have the potential to occur within the Project Site.
Potential impacts to special-status biological resources are construction-related, including mortality or injury from equipment operations, vehicle traffic, and loss of habitat. Project-related noise also has the potential to negatively affect nesting bird activity within or adjacent to the Project Site. Refer to Section 6.0 for recommended mitigation measures to avoid and/or minimize impacts to special-status biological resources.

6.0 RECOMMENDED MITIGATION MEASURES
Implementation of the following avoidance and minimization measures are recommended to protect sensitive biological resources to the greatest extent feasible during proposed Project activities:
1. Work Timing. All work activities shall be completed during daylight hours (between sunrise and sunset) and outside of rain events;
2. Work Limits. The Project impact area shall be clearly marked or delineated with stakes, flagging, tape, or signage prior to work. Areas outside of work limits shall be considered environmentally sensitive and shall not be disturbed;
3. Vehicles and Equipment. All equipment and vehicles shall be checked and maintained daily to prevent spills of fuel, oil, and other hazardous materials. A designated staging area shall be established for vehicle/equipment parking and storage of fuel, lubricants, and solvents. All fueling and maintenance activities shall take place in the staging area;
4. Pre-Activity Nesting Bird Survey. If vegetation removal (i.e., tree trimming/removal activities) is scheduled between February 1 and August 31 (general nesting bird season), nesting bird surveys shall be completed by a qualified biologist within 48 hours prior to start of work. If any active nests are discovered within or adjacent to work limits, an appropriate buffer (i.e., 500 feet for raptors and 250 feet for other birds, or at the discretion of a qualified biologist based on biological or ecological reasons) shall be established to protect the nest until a qualified biologist has determined that the nest is no longer active and/or the young have fledged;
5. Pre-Activity Special-Status Species Survey. Within 30 days of the start of construction, a qualified biologist shall conduct a pre-activity survey of the Project Site for signs of San Joaquin kit fox and American badger, including tracks, scat, or suitable burrows (burrows four inches or greater in diameter). Potential dens shall be tracked for a minimum of four nights with motion-activated cameras to determine if the burrow is actively being used by San Joaquin kit fox or badger. All potential dens shall be avoided by a minimum of 50 feet until they have been determined to be inactive. In the event San Joaquin kit fox is identified within the Project Site, the USFWS, CDFW, and all other appropriate agencies/government entities shall be contacted for further consultation.
In conjunction with the badger and kit fox survey, the qualified biologist will conduct a survey for Northern legless lizard. Hand search methods, including raking, will be used during the survey in areas where legless lizards are expected to be found (e.g., sandy/loose soils, under shrubs/leaf litter, other vegetation, or debris). If observed, the qualified biologist will relocate the lizard to nearby suitable habitat. The qualified biologist will prepare a completion letter-report to document the pre-activity survey results.
6. Oak Tree Removal. If oak tree removal and/or damage is unavoidable due to Project implementation, the County may require mitigation for impacts to mature oak trees.

INTRODUCTION
At the request of Craig Archer, Cultural Resource Management Services (CRMS) has conducted a literature and records search and intensive archaeological survey of a parcel at 2805 Theatre Drive, Paso Robles. This will be the new business location of the Central Coast Peterbilt dealership. The purpose of this investigation is to identify any cultural resources present on the parcel that may be affected by the proposed construction. This work was completed in order to comply with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the County of San Luis Obispo (Figure 1, 2, and 3).
CEQA requires lead agencies to evaluate proposed projects for their potential to impact archaeological resources (Public Resources Code Section 21082, 21083.2, and 21084.1, and California Code of Regulations 15064.5). According to the CEQA Guidelines, “historical resources” include buildings, structures, objects, districts, or sites that may possess prehistoric or historical archaeological, architectural, cultural, or scientific importance. CEQA states that if a project will have a significant effect on important cultural resources, then alternative plans or mitigation measures need to be developed. were conducted to identify and evaluate any significant prehistoric or historic cultural resources that might be impacted by the proposed construction (Exhibit A).
In addition, as part of an early participation notice, letters were sent to Native American tribes, organizations and individuals. The list of recipients was provided by the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC), and is comprised of those groups and individuals thought to have a cultural interest in this area, notifying them of the proposed project, inviting them to consult, and requesting information or concerns regarding the proposed project. A Sacred Lands Search was conducted at the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC). Concurrent with that search, Native Americans and Native American groups cited by the NAHC were contacted. There was one responses to the letters written, noted specifically in Exhibit B. -1-

ENVIRONMENTAL CONTEXT
The project area consists of a ± 7 acre property at the southern corporate limit of of the City of El Paso de Robles, California, west of Highway 101 (Figure 1). Paso Robles lies on a terrace above the western bank of the Salinas River that grades into the hilly flanks of the Santa Lucia Range.
Climate
The weather pattern is characterized by hot, dry summers and cool, moist winters. Every several years, extreme frosts occur during winter months, but generally the area experiences 300 to 325 frost-free days per year. Such a setting is eminently suitable for human habitation.
Geology and Pedology
The Paso Robles area presents a complex geologic picture, underlain by the 4.3 million year old Paso Robles Formation. Sandstones, siltstone, diatomite and conglomerates are characteristic rocks. Beds of fossil pecten and oyster shells from the 5-7 million year old Santa Margarita Formation are also present in some locations (Chipping 1987:VIII-7). The grey-brown soil of the project area is Lockwood shaly loam (Lindsey 1983: 45), deep well-drained soils that formed in material weathered from sedimentary rocks.
Water Sources
Annual rainfall ranges from 12 to 20 inches. Today, the Salinas River, a half-mile to the east, flows at the surface only during seasons of heavy rainfall, but the river flow was more abundant and regular during the time of prehistoric human occupation of the area. The surface flow has been reduced to a minimum in recent years by the many municipal and private wells which draw water from the river for residential and agricultural use, as well as the construction of the Santa Margarita Dam in the early 1940s. There are natural springs in the area, both warm sulphur springs and fresh water (Chapman et al. 1980: 15).
Vegetation
The regional vegetation is melange of oak savanna, oak woodland and chaparral plant communities with a riparian component. Commonly occurring species are: Valley -5-
Attachment 9
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
oak (Quercus lobata), interior live oak (Quercus wizlizenii), chamise (Adenostoma fasciculatum), California lilac (Ceanothus spp.) and coyote brush (Baccharis pilularis).
Along the creeks is a riparian community where western sycamore (Platanus racemosa), willow (Salix sp.), cottonwood (Populus fremontii), White alder (Alnus Rhombifolia), Poison oak (Toxicodendron diversilobum), Blackberry (Rubus ursinus), Poison hemlock (Conium maculatum), and elderberry (Sambucus mexicana) are common. On the project property, vegetation now consists primarily of a few specimens of valley oak, California poppies and a variety of weedy forbs and grasses.
Fauna
Fauna commonly occurring in the surrounding area include black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus), coyote (Canis latrans), black-tailed jackrabbit (Lepus californicus), cottontail rabbit (Sylvilagus spp.), black bear (Ursus americanus) and historically, grizzly bear (Ursus horribilis) and tule elk (Cervus elaphus nannoides). A number of ground squirrels (Spermophilus spp.), the western gray squirrel (Sciurus griseus), gophers (Thomomys spp.), mice (Microtus spp. and Peromyscus spp.), and a variety of reptiles and amphibians are also present.
Common birds in the area include red-tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis), California scrub jay (Aphelocoma coerulescens), mourning dove (Zenaida macroura), western meadowlark (Sturnella neglecta), mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos) and turkey vulture (Cathartes aura), acorn woodpecker (Melanerpes formicuvorus), and valley quail (Lophortyx californicus).
CULTURAL BACKGROUND
Archaeological Background
Archaeological evidence indicates that the San Luis Obispo County region was occupied as early as 8000-9000 years ago, as indicated by radiocarbon dates from excavations at Diablo Canyon (Greenwood 1972), Edna Valley (Fitzgerald 2000), Cambria (Gibson 1979) and Paso Robles (Stevens et al. 2004). The cultural history of this region has until recently been placed within the sequence that has been defined for the Santa Barbara region, where far more archaeological investigations had taken place.
The first regional chronology was proposed by D.B. Rogers (1929) and was based on his -6-
Attachment 9
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
excavation of coastal sites around Santa Barbara. This three-part sequence of Early Oak Grove or Millingstone Culture, Intermediate or Hunting People and a late Canaliño Culture is still considered generally valid in terms of broad cultural patterns (Fitzgerald and Jones 1998).
Researchers on the Central Coast have continued to refine the chronological framework and several alternative schemes have been proposed, primarily based on sites in the Central Valley, Central Coast and Channel Islands (cf. Moratto 1984: 125; King 1990; Erlandson and Jones, 2002; Jones et al. 2007). The following chronology for the San Luis Obispo area builds on this work and incorporates extensive investigations carried out on the Pecho Coast, south of San Luis Obispo (Jones and Codding 2019). All dates are radiocarbon calibrated dates:
. Paleoindian 10,000 BCE - 8350 BCE
Millingstone/ Lower Archaic 8350 BCE - 3500 BCE
Early 3500 BCE - 600 BCE
Middle 600 BCE - 1000 CE
Middle/Late Transition 1000 CE- 1230 CE
Late 1230 CE - 1769 CE
Mission Period 1769 CE - 1830 CE
These periods are based upon shifts in technology that relate to the type and variety of foods consumed, methods of procurement, and social structure. The earliest periods were a time of hunting and gathering, with an emphasis on seed collecting and processing. The tool kit for these periods shows an emphasis on milling equipment and crude cores yielding flaked stone tools. An increased reliance on fishing (evidenced by fishhooks), and on acorns as a dietary staple (mortars and pestles), was indicated later by the addition of new tools.
Paleoindian (10,000 BCE - 8350 BCE)
Excavations on the northern Channel Islands have yielded radiocarbon dates as early as 12,500 years ago (Erlandson and Braje 2011). There is still very limited information for the Paleoindian period in the Central Coast mainland region.
Millingstone Period (8350 BC–3500 BC)

Attachment 9
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
More substantive archaeological evidence exists for the Millingstone Period, as evidenced by radiocarbon dates from excavations conducted at Diablo Canyon (Greenwood 1972), Cambria (Gibson 1979) Edna Valley (Fitzgerald et. al 1998) and Paso Robles (Stevens et.al 2004). It was during this period that permanent settlements with associated cemeteries were established. This basic adaptation persisted until about 3500 BC and was characterized by milling slabs, manos (handstones), rather crude cobble tools and a high density of marine shellfish remains on the coast. Collection of seeds appears to have been important for diet.
Early Period (3500 BCE – 600 BCE)
Along the coast and in interior areas, the Early period is marked by the appearance of mortars and pestles and contracting-stemmed projectile points (Jones 1993). Other artifacts found with Early period occupations are also found in Millingstone period sites, including Olivella (Callianax biplicata) class L beads, large side-notched projectile points, and milling slabs and handstones. Large projectile points and stone knives are indicative of hunting activity. Milling implements consisting of manos and metates were evidence of the processing of seeds, and possibly vegetable foods, dried meats, and fish. Greater numbers of sites are known from the Early period, possibly signaling a population increase. The end of this period is marked by changes in technology with the decrease of manos and metates, a shift in the settlement pattern, and alterations in ornamental style.
Middle Period (600 BCE – 1000 CE)
Mortars and pestles become larger and more common during this period and small seeds become less important as a staple. Exotic products are adopted. This period heralds the advent of social and political alliances and economic networks to regulate food supplies and their distribution in order to alleviate conditions resulting from regional fluctuations in the harvest. Some villages grew larger and less defensive in nature as populations were integrated into larger political units. The end of this period is marked by dramatic changes in economic, social, and political conditions, evidenced by new habitation sites and larger coastal fishing communities.
The Middle period is well represented at recorded sites along the central coast and increasingly in interior regions as well. The types of artifacts found in Middle period occupations are similar to those from the Early period although a larger number -8-

of bone implements and bead types are known and projectile points tend to be contracting-stemmed types instead of side-notched and square-stemmed (Olsen and Payen 1969; Bennyhoff and Hughes 1987; Jones and Waugh 1995). Excavations at Fort Hunter-Liggett have shown that Middle period occupations in that area resemble those found along the coast (Jones and Haney 1997).
Middle/Late Transition Period (1000 CE – 1230 CE)
Around 1,000 AD a 300-year period of warmer temperatures and drier climate, the Medieval Climatic Anomaly, caused adverse environmental conditions, particularly intermittent droughts (Raab and Larson 1997). During the Late Period, terrestrial resource production is thought to have decreased significantly, while adaptive responses involving technology and social complexity evolved. Characteristic artifacts include curved shell fishhooks, mortars with attached basket hopper, contractingstemmed and double side-notched projectile points. The bow and arrow was introduced.
Late Period (1230 CE - 1769 CE)
This period is marked by a more mobile, dispersed settlement pattern than earlier periods (Jones et al. 2015: 15), an increasing dependence on acorns and other storable commodities, and a general diversification of the marine and terrestrial foods consumed. Late period assemblages from the interior south coast ranges are distinguished by a suite of new bead types, small side-notched and triangular arrow points, and hopper mortars as well as many artifact types found in earlier periods (Olsen and Payen 1969). At Fort Hunter Liggett, Late period occupations also included small arrow points, new bead types, as well as bedrock mortars and unshaped pestles (Jones 2000; Haney et al. 2002). The Late period assemblages from a wide area of the central coast and interior regions appear superficially similar, but this was probably a time of continued cultural differentiation due to higher population densities.
Mission Period (1769 CE - 1830 CE )
Glass trade beads, square nails and bottle glass begin to appear in the archaeological matrix (Meighan 1979; Moratto 1984: 273). -9-

Ethnographic Overview
At the time of European contact, the Paso Robles region was primarily occupied by a branch of the northern-most Chumash, the Obispeño (Kroeber 1925). This group inhabited coastal and inland areas between Malibu and the vicinity of San Simeon (Kroeber 1925; Gibson 1983). Also present in the region historically were the Migueleño Salinan (Greenwood 1978). The Salinan were bordered by the Esselen and Costanoan to the north, Yokuts to the east and the Chumash to the south. Examination of mission records reveals that members of the Salinan Nation inter-married into the northern portion of San Luis Obispo County, including the Paso Robles area. The exact boundary of these two groups has not been well established and is the subject of continuing research on the part of ethno-historians, archaeologists, and some Salinan and Chumash descendants.
The economies of the Salinan and the Chumash, as observed at the time of European contact, were based upon an annual cycle of gathering and hunting (Geiger and Meighan 1976). Vegetal foods, especially acorns, provided the bulk of the diet.
Acorns were stored in large willow-twig granaries until needed, then ground in a stone mortar. The tannic acid present in the acorn meal was leached out with water, and the result was cooked into a gruel. Other important plant foods included wild grass and other hard seeds, roots and corms, and various fruits and berries. Major animal foods included an assortment of terrestrial mammals, marine and freshwater fish, shellfish, birds, as well as reptiles and insects. It is unclear to what extent people living inland ventured to the coast and vice versa, but it is likely that people were mobile enough to take advantage of plant and animal foods when and where they occurred. Diets would have varied from season to season, and from year to year, depending on what was available and accessible.
Stone, bone, wood, plant fibers and shell all provided materials for the production of tools. Hunting of animals and birds was accomplished with snares, traps, spears, darts, and the during the Late Period, bow and arrow. Stone work included projectile points, knives, scrapers, choppers and awls. Pecked and ground stone objects included bowl mortars, pestles, metates, basket mortars, stone bowls, notched pebble net sinkers, and steatite arrow shaft straighteners. Ornaments were made of steatite and serpentine. Bone and shell tools were also manufactured; especially bone awls and C- -10-

shaped fishhooks. Shell beads of mussel and abalone were the basis of the Salinan "currency", with value being assigned based on the color or the shell (Hester 1978: 502).
Historic Overview
European contact in the San Luis Obispo County region may have begun as early as 1587 with the visit of Pedro de Unamuno to Morro Bay, although some scholars have questioned this based on the ambiguity of Unamuno's descriptions (Mathes 1968). A visit in 1595 by Sebastian Rodriguez Cermeño is better documented (Wagner 1924). The earliest well-documented descriptions come from accounts by members of Gaspar de Portola's land expedition, which passed through the region in 1769 (Squibb 1984).
No large villages, such as those seen along the Santa Barbara channel, were reported by early travelers in the San Luis Obispo region.
Permanent Spanish settlement of the region began with the founding of Mission San Antonia de Padua (near King City) in 1771 and San Luis Obispo de Tolosa (in San Luis Obispo) in 1772. Twenty-five years later, Mission San Miguel Archangel was founded in the heart of southern Salinan territory. The mission properties of San Miguel mission were extensive and included an outlying rancho station, Las Gallinas, near present day Paso Robles (Ohles 1997).
As elsewhere, induction into the mission system had a devastating effect on the local inhabitants, requiring them to live and work at the mission and to a great extent abandon their former lifeways. The inadvertent introduction of European diseases, the consequent high mortality rate, and the pressure of overwhelming social change decimated the population. By 1805, most native villages had been abandoned, and the populace had either fled or moved into the mission system (Gibson 1983). The natives who had survived the Spanish colonization period, went on to build and staff the rancheros of the Mexican and American periods which followed. By the beginning of the 20th Century, the Chumash and Salinan had been integrated into American society (Gibson 1983; King 1984, 1990).
In 1822, Mexico attained independence of Spain and California became a Mexican territory. The Secularization Act, passed by the Mexican congress in 1833, provided for the immediate break-up of the missions and the transfer of mission lands to settlers and Indians. Work toward this end began in 1834 under Governor Figueroa. -11-
Attachment 9
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
Grants were made to individuals by the governor on the recommendation of the local alcalde of the Mission (Shumway 2007). During the years from 1840 to 1846, a series of land grants were made from the lands of Mission San Miguel by the governors of Mexican California. Most of these were used for grazing huge cattle herds. Even after the acquisition of California by the United States the ranchos continued to thrive until the drought of 1863 - 1864. This drought was ruinous to many of the ranchos. Tens of thousands of acres changes hands as lands sold for less than their assessed value (Angel 1883; Morrison & Haydon 1917). The new owners were most often North Americans who arrived on the heels of the drought as land prices plummeted.
The project area was a portion of the 26,000 acre rancho El Paso de los Robles, granted May 12, 1844 to Pedro Navarez by Mexican Governor Manuel Micheltorena. In 1848 the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo marked an end to the Mexican American war and California became a territory of the United States. Statehood was attained in 1850 and in 1851 the Land Act, passed by Congress, meant that the rancheros now had to prove ownership of their land. A patent on the El Paso de los Robles was obtained July 20, 1866 by Petronillo Rios. Prior to the patent, however, the parcel had been sold in two separate transactions, first to Daniel and James Blackburn on September 21, 1858.
The second portion was sold July 9, 1861 to Lazarus Godchaux. They immediately began making improvements to the hot sulphur springs which had been used by local inhabitants for generations. The location had long been a rest stop for travelers on the El Camino Real. In 1864 the El Paso de Robles Hotel with attendant mineral hot spring bathhouse, was built. By the 1870s, the Paso Robles Hot Springs was a well known destination for people seeking the famous curative powers of the springs (Sawyer 1915).
The West Coast Land Co. was incorporated on March 27, 1886. The immediate objective was to develop 64,000 acres of land, comprised of the ranchos Santa Ysabel, El Paso de Robles, Eureka, and the unsold portion of Huer Huero that had been purchase over the preceding decade. The purchases were based upon the expectation that the Southern Pacific Railroad coastal line between San Francisco and Los Angeles through San Luis Obispo County would bring prosperity to the region (Nicholson 1980). A town plan for Paso Robles, on the western side of the Salinas River, was commissioned, and on November 17, 1886, two weeks after the first train arrived in “town” a Grand Auction was held, resulting in the sale of 228 lots. The town plan was completed by 1887 and the town was incorporated as a city in 1889. The trickle of settlers became a -12-

flood and Paso Robles became a major export center for cattle, grain, dairy products, stone fruit, walnuts, and almonds. Throughout the later part of the nineteenth and the twentieth century, the economy of the Paso Robles region was largely agricultural.
Cattle ranches, dairies, almond and other fruit orchards, and large tracts devoted to dry land grain production comprised the rural landscape. This resulted in the clearing of much of the Oak woodland, including the present project area ( Rossi 1979: 258). During the mid twentieth century, Paso Robles was known as "The Almond Capital of the World." Much of the region around Paso Robles
In 1882, York Mountain Vineyard opened, eventually becoming one of the first bonded wineries on the Central Coast. Agriculture has continued to be the mainstay of the region up to the present, with increasing emphasis on viticulture and wine-making.
The proliferation of wineries in the last 30 years has also lead to tourism once again becoming a major component of the local economy.
MAP AND RECORDS SEARCH RESULTS
Prior to the field survey, a records and literature search was conducted at the Central Coast Information Center, Museum of Natural History, Santa Barbara, which is the regional clearinghouse for archaeological site information for San Luis Obispo County under agreement with the California Office of Historic Preservation (OHP).
The search also included inventories for the State Historic Property Data Files, National Register of Historic Places, National Register of Determined Eligible Properties, California Historical Landmarks, California Points of Historic Interest, California OHP Archaeological Determinations of Eligibility, and the CalTrans State and Local Bridge Surveys.
Seven cultural resource studies have been conducted within a 1/4 mile radius of the project area (Bonner 2004; Clift and Farrell 2001; Farrell 1998; Gibson 1973; Girado and Orfila 2008; Singer 2004, 2006). No prehistoric archaeological sites or historic properties have been identified within the same radius. -13-

SUMMARY OF NATIVE AMERICAN OUTREACH
A letter was sent on March 6, 2022, to the Project Analyst at the Native American Heritage Commission. The letter explained the proposed project and asked him to conduct a Sacred Lands Search and forward to CRMS any names and addresses of those who may have knowledge of cultural resources within the study area, or who would like to comment on the project.
On April 24, 2022 a letter dated the same day, was received from Cody Campagne, Project Analyst, indicating that the Sacred Lands Search conducted at the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) yielded no evidence of Sacred Lands with the project. A list of interested Native American individuals and groups was included. Letters, explaining the project and soliciting comments were sent to each of the Native Americans and groups listed (Exhibit B). On Aril 25, 2022, letters were written to the Native Americans and groups listed by the NAHC explaining the project, and asking for their comments.
RESULTS OF FIELD INVESTIGATION
A field reconnaissance of the project area was made on April 20, 2022 by Nancy Farrell and Ron Rose of CRMS. The entire surface was inspected by walking parallel transects at two meter intervals. Mineral soil visibility was variable but generally good (50%). Additionally, the abundant ground burrow spoil piles provided additional visibility No evidence of prehistoric or historic artifacts, features, or other indications of significant cultural resources were found during the survey. (Figure 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8).
There was evidence of a previous water hookup and a telephone pole, no evidence of a building structure was found. An examination of aerial photos from the 1970s yielded no additional information. There was a sewer manhole. A check with the City Wastewater Treatment Department showed no sewer hookup in that location. Further examination with the cover removed showed that the manhole was never developed, but abandoned. Apparently a previous property owner had some plans for future development. Also on the property is a fenced detention basin approximately 80 feet square. This detention may be used for the present development or abandoned. -14-

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Since no evidence of significant cultural resources was located on the subject property, no further archaeological investigations are recommended at this time. While it is unlikely that subsurface remains are present, the nature of surface survey does not preclude the possible existence of such remains. If prehistoric or historic cultural materials are encountered during any phase of property grading or development the work should be halted until a qualified archaeologist can make an assessment of the resources and proper mitigation measures be formulated, if necessary. -18-

RE: Phase I Inventory Survey, Commercial Building
2805 Theatre Drive, Paso Robles, CA, APN: 009-851-022
Dear Mr. Quinn:
The owners of the property described above intends to construct a new commercial building on the identified parcel.
Cultural Resource Management Services (CRMS) has been retained, to prepare a Phase I surface survey as well as provide an early participation notice to interested Native Americans and Native American groups relative to the proposed construction project.
Please review the sacred lands files for any Native American Sacred resources or sites that may be within or adjacent to the area of potential effect (APE). Please verify that any sacred sites in the vicinity are not in the APE. The project area is within the corporate limits of the city of Paso Robles, San Luis Obispo county, and is identified on the attached portion of the USGS Templeton 7.5' Quadrangle. The study area falls within,, Township 27 South and Range 12 East MDM. The project location is depicted as a salmon colored polygon. As the area was part of a Rancho, there are no section lines. -28-

Environmental Noise Assessment
Peterbilt Service and Sales Center – Paso Robles, California
Introduction
The proposed Peterbilt Service and Sales Center (project) is located at 2805 Theatre Drive in Paso Robles, California (APN: 009-851-022). The project proposes the development of a service center for semi-trucks, a retail parts department, and a dealership. The site amenities would include offices for employees, a lounge area for customers, an outdoor display area, and customer parking. The project area with aerial imagery is shown in Figure 1. The project site plan is presented in Figure 2.
Due to the proximity of the proposed project to existing residential uses, Bollard Acoustical Consultants, Inc. (BAC) was retained by the City of Paso Robles to prepare an assessment of potential noise impacts associated with the project. Specifically, the purposes of this assessment are to quantify noise levels associated with proposed on-site operations, to assess state of compliance of those noise levels with applicable City of Paso Robles noise standards, and if necessary, to recommend measures to reduce noise levels to acceptable limits at the nearest existing residential uses.
Noise Fundamentals and Terminology
Noise is often described as unwanted sound. Sound is defined as any pressure variation in air that the human ear can detect. If the pressure variations occur frequently enough (at least 20 times per second), they can be heard, and thus are called sound. Measuring sound directly in terms of pressure would require a very large and awkward range of numbers. To avoid this, the decibel scale was devised. The decibel scale allows a million-fold increase in pressure to be expressed as 120 dB. Another useful aspect of the decibel scale is that changes in levels (dB) correspond closely to human perception of relative loudness. Appendix A contains definitions of Acoustical Terminology. Figure 3 shows common noise levels associated with various sources.
The perceived loudness of sounds is dependent upon many factors, including sound pressure level and frequency content. However, within the usual range of environmental noise levels, perception of loudness is relatively predictable, and can be approximated by weighing the frequency response of a sound level meter by means of the standardized A-weighing network.
There is a strong correlation between A-weighted sound levels (expressed as dBA) and community response to noise. All noise levels reported in this section are in terms of A-weighted levels in decibels.
Community noise is commonly described in terms of the “ambient” noise level, which is defined as the all-encompassing noise level associated with a given noise environment. A common statistical tool to measure the ambient noise level is the average, or equivalent, sound level (Leq) over a given time period (usually one hour). The Leq is the foundation of the Day-Night Average Level noise descriptor (DNL or Ldn), and shows very good correlation with community response to noise.

Common Noise Levels Associated with Various Sources
The Day-Night Average Level (DNL or Ldn) is based upon the average noise level over a 24-hour day, with a +10-decibel weighting applied to noise occurring during nighttime (10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.) hours. The nighttime penalty is based upon the assumption that people react to nighttime noise exposures as though they were twice as loud as daytime exposures. Because DNL represents a 24-hour average, it tends to disguise short-term variations in the noise environment.
DNL-based noise standards are commonly used to assess noise impacts associated with traffic, railroad, and aircraft noise sources.

Existing Ambient Noise Environment in the Project Vicinity The existing ambient noise environment in the immediate project vicinity is defined primarily by traffic on U.S. Highway 101 and Theatre Avenue, and to a lesser extent by nearby commercial operations. To generally quantify the existing ambient noise environment in the immediate project vicinity, BAC conducted long-term (24-hour) noise level measurements on the project site from Monday, June 6, 2022, to Tuesday, June 7, 2022. The noise survey location, identified on Figure 1, was selected to be generally representative of the ambient noise level environment at the nearest residential uses located immediately south of the project site. Photographs of the noise level survey location are provided in Appendix B.
A Larson-Davis Laboratories (LDL) Model LxT precision integrating sound level meter was used to complete the ambient noise level survey. The meter was calibrated immediately before and after use with an LDL Model CAL200 acoustical calibrator to ensure the accuracy off the measurements. The equipment used meets all pertinent specifications of the American National Standards Institute for Type 1 sound level meters (ANSI S1.4). The results of the long-term ambient noise survey are shown numerically and graphically in Appendices C and D (respectively) and are summarized in Table 1.

Specific Notes:
1. Noise sensitive areas are defined acoustic terminology section.
2. Interior noise level standards are applied within noise-sensitive areas of the various land uses, as defined in the acoustic terminology section, with windows and doors closed.
3. Daytime hours = 7 am – 7 pm, Evening hours = 7 pm – 10 pm, Nighttime hours = 10 pm – 7 am.
4. Leq = Average or “Equivalent” noise level during the worst-case hour in which the building is in use.
5. Lmax = Highest measured sound level occurring during a given interval of time (Typically 1 hour).
6. Hospitals are often noise-generating uses. The exterior noise level standards for hospitals are applicable only at clearly identified areas designated for outdoor relaxation by either hospital staff or patients.
7. Exterior areas of school uses are not typically noise-sensitive. As a result, the standards for schools are focused on the interior office and classroom spaces.
General Notes Applicable to All Noise Standards and Land Uses:
a. Where the noise source in question consists of speech or music, or is impulsive in nature, or contains a pure tone, the noise standards of this table are reduced by 5 dB.
b. Where ambient noise levels exceed the noise level standards shown above, the noise standards shall be increased in 5 dB increments to encompass the ambient.
c. Reductions in the noise standards for noise sources identified in general note “A” above shall be applied after any increases warranted by elevated ambient conditions prescribed in general note “B”, subject to verification through a noise study.

Noise Level Criteria Applied to the Project
The nearest noise-sensitive receptors to the project site have been identified as residences to the south within the Los Robles Mobile Home Estates. These residential uses are shown on Figure
1. Based on the proposed uses of the project (i.e., commercial services and sales), it is reasonably assumed that hours of operation for the business would be limited to daytime and evening hours only. Based on the information above, the City’s exterior and interior daytime and evening noise level limits for residential uses shown in Table 2 would be applicable to the project.
However, pursuant to the footnote “b” contained in Table 2, where ambient noise levels exceed the exterior noise level standards shown in Table 2, the exterior noise standards shall be increased in 5 dB increments to encompass the ambient.
Based on the results from the BAC ambient noise level survey at the nearest residential uses to the south (Table 1), and pursuant to the adjustment criteria contained in Table 2, the following exterior noise level limits shown in Table 3 were applied to project on-site operations and assessed at the nearest residential uses to the south of the project. Satisfaction of the City’s noise level standards at the closest residential uses would ensure compliance with the City’s noise level limits at residential uses located farther away.

The exterior noise level limits shown in Table 3 were applied at the outdoor areas (i.e., backyards) of the nearest residential uses to the south. Additionally, the City’s (unadjusted) interior noise level limits for residential uses presented in Table 2 were also applied to the project.
Evaluation of Project-Generated Operations Noise
As mentioned previously, the project proposes the development of a service center for semitrucks, a retail parts department, and a dealership. The site amenities would include offices for employees, a lounge area for customers, an outdoor display area, and customer parking.
The most significant noise sources associated with normal project operations will likely consist of air compressors and pneumatic tools associated with the service department (within the building), and on-site truck circulation. In addition, activities occurring within a covered outdoor Attachment 9

Bollard Acoustical Consultants, Inc. (BAC)
Environmental Noise Assessment
Peterbilt Service and Sales Center – Paso Robles, California
maintenance area for compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles have also been identified as a primary noise source. The locations of the on-site truck circulation route, service department and CNG maintenance area are shown on Figure 2. Analyses of noise exposure associated with the above-identified on-site activities at the nearest residential uses to the south are presented in the following section.
On-Site Truck Circulation Noise
It is expected that most of the on-site truck circulation will be associated with the service department. The project site plan indicates that the trucks will enter and exit the property via one access point on Theatre Drive. Once on the project property, the trucks will head west towards the service department near the rear of the building. The location of the on-site circulation route, which include truck turnaround areas indicated in the site plan, is illustrated on Figure 2.
Heavy truck arrivals and departures, and on-site truck circulation, will occur at low speeds. To quantify the noise generation of slow moving trucks, BAC utilized single-event passby noise test results for slow-moving heavy trucks conducted at the West El Camino truck stop in Sacramento, California. The passby measurements were conducted at a reference distance of 50 feet at a location suitable for isolation of individual passby events. According to BAC file data, single-event heavy truck passby noise levels are approximately 74 dB Lmax and 83 dB SEL at a reference distance of 50 feet.
Because the City of Paso Robles Municipal Code noise standards are provided in terms of both hourly average (Leq) noise levels and individual maximum (Lmax) noise levels, it is necessary to identify the number of truck movements occurring during a typical busy hour of operations to assess compliance with the Leq-based standards. Based on the project site plan, the truck service department has approximately 10 bays (8 work bench areas, 2 having double bay capacity).
Conservatively assuming that all 10 truck bays could both fill and empty during a worst-case busy hour, the project would generate 20 truck passbys during that hour. Based on a conservative estimate of 20 truck passbys during a given worst-case hour and an SEL of 83 per passby, the hourly average noise level generated by heavy truck passbys computes to 60 dB Leq at a reference distance of 50 feet during a worst-case busy hour of service operations.
Based on the assumptions and equation provided above, and assuming standard sound wave spreading loss (-6 dB per doubling of distance), worst-case on-site truck circulation noise exposure at the nearest residential uses to the south was calculated and the results of those calculations are presented in Table 4.

As indicated in Table 4, worst-case project on-site truck circulation noise level exposure is predicted to satisfy the applied City of Paso Robles Municipal Code exterior daytime and evening noise level limits at the nearest residential uses. In addition, standard residential construction (e.g., stucco siding, STC-27 windows, door weather-stripping, exterior wall insulation, composition plywood roof), typically results in an exterior to interior noise reduction of approximately 25 dB with windows and doors closed. Given this exterior-to-interior noise reduction typically achieved from standard residential construction, and based on the predicted exterior noise levels in Table 4, project on-site truck circulation noise level exposure is expected to be well below the Municipal Code interior daytime and evening noise level standards within the interior areas of the nearest residences.
Based on the analysis provided above, project on-site truck circulation noise level exposure is expected to satisfy the applied City of Paso Robles Municipal Code exterior and interior noise level criteria provided the following specific measure is implemented by the project:
1. All on-site truck circulation should be limited to daytime and/or evening hours only (i.e., no operations during nighttime hours).
Service Department Equipment Noise
The project site plans indicate the truck service/repair department will be located within the west end of the proposed building. The site plans further indicate that the service portion of the building will have a total of 10 bay doors, distributed evenly between the north and south sides of the building. The proposed building and service department are shown in Figure 2.
To quantify noise levels associated with service department equipment, BAC utilized file data collected for an automobile repair facility (Red Rocket Automotive Repair Facility in Sacramento, California – 2013). Specific noise sources quantified in the noise level data included an air compressor, air hammer, impact wrench, hydraulic lift, and an oil pump. The results of the reference noise level measurements are contained below in Table 5.

Based on the reference noise measurements for the equipment in Table 5, and assuming standard sound wave spreading loss (-6 dB per doubling of distance), equipment noise exposure at the nearest residential uses to the south was calculated and the results of those calculations are presented below in Tables 6 and 7. The data shown in Table 6 reflect predicted equipment noise levels at the nearest residential uses to the south with service department bay doors on the south and west sides of the building in the open position. Predicted equipment noise levels presented in Table 7 include consideration of the sound transmission loss that would be provided by the bay doors on the south and west sides of the building in the closed position during operations and have been adjusted by -15 dB.
According to the provided site plans, the air compressor for the service department is proposed to be located above the covered outdoor CNG vehicle maintenance area on the west side of the building (i.e., equipment will not be located within the building). As a result, no adjustment for service department bay door or building facade transmission loss was applied to air compressor noise level exposure at the nearest residential uses in Table 7.

As indicated in Table 6, noise levels associated with air hammer equipment operations with bay doors in the open position could exceed the applied City of Paso Robles Municipal Code exterior daytime and evening noise level limits at the nearest residential uses. Noise from all other sources is predicted to be satisfactory with the City standards. With service department bay doors in the closed position, all equipment noise levels are predicted to satisfy the applied Municipal Code exterior daytime and evening noise level limits at the nearest residential uses to the south.
Additionally, given the exterior to interior noise reduction typically achieved from standard residential construction (approximately 25 dB with windows and doors closed), service department equipment noise level exposure is expected to satisfy the Municipal Code interior daytime and evening noise level standards within the interior areas of the nearest residences – both with building bay doors in the open and closed positions.
Based on the analysis provided above, project service department equipment noise level exposure is expected to satisfy the applied City of Paso Robles Municipal Code exterior and interior noise level criteria provided the following specific measures are implemented by the project:
1. All service department operations should be limited to daytime and/or evening hours only (i.e., no operations during nighttime hours).
2. Operations within the service department area of the building should occur with south and west side bay doors in the closed position while air hammer usage is occurring.
Additionally, service technicians and management should be aware of equipment use during the brief periods in which air hammer usage is occurring to reduce to the potential for an exceedance of the applied Municipal Code noise level criteria at the closest residential uses.
CNG Vehicle Maintenance Area Equipment Noise
An analysis of service department equipment noise level exposure was presented in the previous section. Based on the reference noise measurements in Table 5, and assuming standard sound wave spreading loss (-6 dB per doubling of distance), CNG vehicle maintenance area equipment noise exposure at the nearest residential uses to the south was calculated and the results of those calculations are presented in Table 8. It should be noted that not all of the equipment identified in Table 5 was utilized in the analysis of CNG vehicle maintenance area noise exposure. Rather, this analysis focuses on assumed equipment usage within the outdoor CNG vehicle maintenance area.

The Table 8 data indicate noise levels associated with outdoor CNG vehicle maintenance area equipment are predicted to satisfy the applied City of Paso Robles Municipal Code exterior daytime and evening noise level limits at the nearest residential uses. In addition, given the exterior to interior noise reduction typically achieved from standard residential construction (approximately 25 dB with windows and doors closed), CNG vehicle maintenance equipment noise level exposure is expected to satisfy the Municipal Code interior daytime and evening noise level standards within the interior areas of the nearest residences.
Based on the analysis provided above, project CNG vehicle repair equipment noise level exposure is expected to satisfy the applied City of Paso Robles Municipal Code exterior and interior noise level criteria provided the following specific measures are implemented by the project:
1. All operations within the outdoor CNG vehicle maintenance area should be limited to daytime and/or evening hours only (i.e., no operations during nighttime hours).
2. To reduce the potential for an exceedance of the applied City of Paso Robles Municipal Code noise criteria at the nearest residential uses, air hammers or hydraulic lifts should not be used or installed in the outdoor CNG vehicle maintenance area.
Public Address System
It is unclear at the time of writing this report whether the project will include a public address (PA) system. However, the loudness of a PA system is highly dependent on variables that include system power output, speaker distance and directionality relative to receiver, and volume level.
Thus, it is difficult to quantify project PA system noise exposure with reasonable levels of precision.
Based on the experience of BAC with PA systems, the loudness of the system is typically set above ambient conditions to be clearly heard by its recipients. However, because the Municipal Attachment 9
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
Bollard Acoustical Consultants, Inc. (BAC)
Environmental Noise Assessment
Peterbilt Service and Sales Center – Paso Robles, California
Code noise level criteria applicable to this project are based on measured ambient conditions, such a configuration would likely exceed acceptable Municipal Code noise level limits.
For BAC to quantify noise associated with a PA system with a high level of precision (should one be proposed), a specific analysis prepared by a sound system designer would be required.
Specifically, specifications for the system including overall noise level exposure at certain distances with consideration of speaker directionality would be needed. In absence of such specifications from a sound designer, it is the recommendation of BAC that the professional installer of the PA system (should one be proposed), ensure through analysis and testing that the equipment does not exceed 65 dB Lmax at the nearest residential property lines. An overall PA system noise level of 65 dB Lmax at the nearest residential property lines would avoid the potential for an exceedance of the Municipal Code’s daytime and evening maximum noise level standards at those locations.
Conclusions and Recommendations
This analysis concludes that noise generated by on-site truck circulation is expected to satisfy the applied City of Paso Robles daytime and evening exterior and interior noise level limits at the nearest residential uses to the south of the project. This analysis further concludes that equipment noise levels from service department and CNG vehicle maintenance activities are expected to satisfy the applied City of Paso Robles daytime and evening exterior and interior noise level limits at the nearest residential uses to the south of the project provided that the following specific measures are implemented by the project:
1. On-site truck circulation, service department operations, and outdoor CNG vehicle maintenance area activities should be limited to daytime and/or evening hours only (i.e., no operations during nighttime hours).
2. Operations within the service department area of the building should occur with south and west side bay doors in the closed position at all times while air hammer usage is occurring.
Additionally, service technicians and management should be aware of equipment use during the brief periods in which air hammer usage is occurring to reduce to the potential for an exceedance of the applied Municipal Code noise level criteria at the closest residential uses.
3. To reduce the potential for an exceedance of the applied Municipal Code noise level criteria at the nearest residential uses, air hammers or hydraulic lifts should not be used or installed in the outdoor CNG vehicle maintenance area.
Finally, it is unclear at the time of writing this report whether the project will include a public address (PA) system. Should one be proposed, it is the recommendation of BAC that the professional installer of the PA system ensure through analysis and testing that the equipment does not exceed 65 dB Lmax at the nearest residential property lines. An overall PA system noise level of 65 dB Lmax at the nearest residential property lines would avoid the potential for an exceedance of the Municipal Code’s daytime and evening maximum noise level standards at those locations.

Acoustical Terminology
Acoustics The science of sound.
Ambient Noise The distinctive acoustical characteristics of a given space consisting of all noise sources audible at that location. In many cases, the term ambient is used to describe an existing or pre-project condition such as the setting in an environmental noise study.
Attenuation The reduction of an acoustic signal.
A-Weighting A frequency-response adjustment of a sound level meter that conditions the output signal to approximate human response.
Decibel or dB Fundamental unit of sound. A Bell is defined as the logarithm of the ratio of the sound pressure squared over the reference pressure squared. A Decibel is one-tenth of a Bell.
CNEL Community Noise Equivalent Level. Defined as the 24-hour average noise level with noise occurring during evening hours (7 - 10 p.m.) weighted by a factor of three and nighttime hours weighted by a factor of 10 prior to averaging.
Frequency The measure of the rapidity of alterations of a periodic signal, expressed in cycles per second or hertz.
IIC Impact Insulation Class (IIC): A single-number representation of a floor/ceiling partition’s impact generated noise insulation performance. The field-measured version of this number is the FIIC.
Ldn Day/Night Average Sound Level. Similar to CNEL but with no evening weighting.
Leq Equivalent or energy-averaged sound level.
Lmax The highest root-mean-square (RMS) sound level measured over a given period of time.
Loudness A subjective term for the sensation of the magnitude of sound.
Masking The amount (or the process) by which the threshold of audibility is for one sound is raised by the presence of another (masking) sound.
Noise Unwanted sound.
Peak Noise The level corresponding to the highest (not RMS) sound pressure measured over a given period of time. This term is often confused with the “Maximum” level, which is the highest RMS level.
RT60 The time it takes reverberant sound to decay by 60 dB once the source has been removed.
STC Sound Transmission Class (STC): A single-number representation of a partition’s noise insulation performance. This number is based on laboratory-measured, 16-band (1/3- octave) transmission loss (TL) data of the subject partition. The field-measured version of this number is the FSTC.

MEMORANDUM
Date: July 22, 2022
To: David Athey and Kristin Ferravanti, City of Paso Robles From: Joe Fernandez and Korinne Tarien, CCTC
Subject: 2805 Theatre Drive Peterbilt Dealership Transportation Analysis This memorandum summarizes the trip generation, safety, and vehicle miles traveled (VMT) evaluation of the 34,552 square foot building proposed at 2805 Theatre Drive in the City of Paso Robles. The building would be used for retail and services for semi-trucks and includes an on-site dealership. The site plan is shown on Figure
1. The proposed project is expected to have a less-than-significant impact to VMT.
We recommend the driveway widths be reduced to meet City standards and that the Theatre Drive improvements are constructed to accommodate two travel lanes, bike lanes, and a center left turn lane. We also recommend parking on Nutwood Circle be restricted on both sides of the road from the curb return to 20 feet west.
TRIP GENERATION
The proposed project does not conform to standard uses in the Institute of Transportation Engineers’ Trip Generation Manual. Accordingly, new traffic counts were conducted at a similar facility operated by the applicant in Salinas. Like the proposed project, the Salinas facility is located near US 101 and offers similar services in a similar sized building. Table 1 below summarizes the trip counts collected at the Salinas facility, with detailed count sheets attached.
Table 1: Peterbilt Trip Generation (Elvee Drive, Salinas) The collected data shows that the Salinas facility generates approximately 178 daily, 41 AM, and 45 PM peak hour trips. It is assumed that the proposed project would generate a similar number of trips with fewer than 50 peak hour trips. These trips are likely to be roughly evenly split between the north and the south, gaining access to US 101 via the SR 46W and Main Street interchanges.
CEQA ANALYSIS
Vehicle miles traveled (VMT) were analyzed consistent with recently mandated changes to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and state Office of Planning and Research (OPR) guidance. The City’s 2022 Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA) Guidelines Supplement provide VMT and safety thresholds consistent with OPR guidance. Office and industrial projects may have a significant impact if the work VMT per employee exceeds 85 percent of the regional average. Work VMT captures home-based-work attractions (trips from homes to workplaces).

2805 Theatre Drive Peterbilt Dealership Transportation Analysis 2 Central Coast Transportation Consulting July 22, 2022
The SLOCOG Travel Demand Model was applied to estimate VMT. Project employees were estimated using typical square footage per employee from industry standard sources, then were added to the model. Table 2 summarizes the VMT results.
Table 2: Regional VMT Analysis
The regional average work VMT per employee is 13.60 (1,595,867/117,335). A threshold of 85% of this level corresponds to 11.56 work VMT per employee. The project is forecast to have a work VMT per employee of
3.3, well below the threshold. This is due to the provision of jobs in a housing-rich area. Therefore, the project would have a less-than-significant impact to VMT.
Projects may also have a significant impact if they exacerbate an existing high-priority or similar safety location, introduce a design feature that substantially increases hazards, or propose features that do not meet City design standards.
Collision data was obtained from the Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) for Templeton CHP and City police on Theatre Drive in the vicinity of the project between 2017 and 2021. One injury collision occurred near Ranch Paso Road when a bicycle was traveling the wrong way. No collisions occurred at or near Nutwood Circle. There are no observed collision patterns and no recommendations.
SITE ACCESS AND ON SITE CIRCULATION
The project proposes two driveways one on Theater Drive and one on Nutwood Circle. The proposed driveway on Theatre Drive is 50 feet wide, larger than a standard commercial driveway. City Standard Drawing C-9 specifies a maximum driveway width of 30 feet. We recommend both driveways meet City Standards.
The project will be required to complete frontage improvements on Theatre Drive as currently shown on the site plan in Figure 1. The City and County Bike Plans include future Class II bike lanes on Theatre Drive. We recommend the Theatre Drive frontage improvements be designed to accommodate two travel lanes, bike lanes, and a center left turn lane. Parking is not recommended on Theatre Drive. We also recommend parking on Nutwood Circle be restricted on both sides of the road from the curb return to 20 feet west consistent with the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CAMUTCD).
Please let us know if you have any questions.

GSA Board Agenda
From: Christopher Alakel, Utilities Director
Subject: Receive and file a proposed Statement of Equity and consider incorporating principles stated therein, in coordination with the other GSAs, into the next update of the Paso Basin Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP)
CEQA Determination: The City finds that this action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines Section State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3), 15378.
Date: June 20, 2023
Facts
1. In 2014, the California State Legislature passed and the Governor signed into law the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) which required local management of groundwater resources in California through the formation of Groundwater Sustainability Agencies (GSAs) and through preparation and implementation of Groundwater Sustainability Plans (GSPs).
2. The City of Paso Robles and three other local agencies (County of San Luis Obispo, the Shandon-San Juan Water District, and the San Miguel Community Services District) within the Paso Groundwater Subbasin (Basin), voted to form a GSA within their respective jurisdiction, such that the service areas of the GSAs collectively cover the entire Basin. These agencies are collectively referred to as the “Paso Basin GSAs.”
3. Consistent with the options identified in Water Code Section 10727, the Paso Basin GSAs entered into a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) for the purpose of preparing a single GSP for the Basin and establishing the Paso Basin Cooperative Committee (PBCC) to conduct activities related to GSP development and SGMA implementation.
4. On June 21, 2022, the Paso Robles GSA Board adopted a revised Groundwater Sustainability Plan that was submitted to DWR on July 19, 2022 to comply with SGMA requirements. The next update of the GSP will be completed by January of 2025.
5. PBCC members voted unanimously at their April 26, 2023 regular meeting to have their GSAs consider adopting the Statement of Equity (attached) or otherwise incorporate the principles stated therein, in coordination with the other GSAs, into the next update of the GSP.
6. If incorporated into the GSP, the principles outlined in the Statement of Equity will be used to evaluate and rank future management actions and projects.
Options
1. Do nothing;
2. Receive and file with direction to staff to work in cooperation with other GSA’s to incorporate the Statement of Equity into the next update of the GSP;
3. Provide alternative direction to staff.
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
Analysis and Conclusions
With the approval of the GSP, the GSAs are now focused on implementation of the projects and management actions that are identified in the GSP. Implementation measures will include bringing supplemental water into the Basin, which can be used in lieu of groundwater pumping. Potential supplemental sources of water that are being considered include the use of recycled wastewater from the City of Paso Robles and San Miguel Community Services District. Other supplemental water supply sources under consideration include the potential use of turn-back-pool water from the Nacimiento Pipeline Project partners, water from The State Water Project and expansion of the Salinas Dam. In conjunction with supplemental water supply projects under consideration, the GSAs are in the preliminary phases of developing management actions and programs that will be designed to reduce groundwater pumping across the Basin. Special consideration will be given to improving groundwater conditions in areas of the Basin where rural residents rely on domestic wells for their sole supply of drinking water.
With GSP implementation efforts underway, the PBCC members agreed that groundwater in the Basin is a shared resource that the GSAs seek to manage for the benefit of all Basin users, consistent with their rights under the California Constitution and state statutes. Sustainable management of a reliable groundwater supply is crucial to the ongoing health and wellbeing of our communities’ residents and their economic interests.
To ensure that the commitment to fairness, among all those dependent on groundwater in the Basin, is considered as part of the implementation of the GSP and subsequent management of the Basin, the PBCC members voted unanimously at their April 26, 2023 to consider incorporating the concept of fairness with the proposed Statement of Equity into the next GSP update. Specifically, this means management actions and projects undertaken to balance the Basin will be evaluated against the Statement of Equity.

1. Statement of Equity
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
PASO BASIN COORDINATING COMMITTEE
PROPOSED STATEMENT OF EQUITY
April 28, 2023
Groundwater in the Paso Robles Subbasin is a shared resource that the GSAs that are party to this GSP seek to manage for the benefit of all Subbasin users, consistent with their rights under the California Constitution and state statutes. The management framework established by SGMA and this GSP is inherently focused on assuring both sustainable and equitable access to and use of this shared resource.
Sustainable management of a reliable groundwater supply is crucial to the ongoing health and wellbeing of our communities’ residents and their economic interests, especially our valued agricultural economy – and also crucial to the natural environment upon which that economy depends.
The concept of equity is explicit in state statute. As noted on the State Water Resources Control Board website, in Water Code Section 106.3 “the state statutorily recognizes that ‘every human being has the right to safe, clean, affordable, and accessible water adequate for human consumption, cooking, and sanitary purposes.’ The human right to water extends to all Californians, including disadvantaged individuals and groups and communities in rural and urban areas.”
Achieving equitable access to Subbasin groundwater faces several challenges:
• Users are located in diverse settings relative to the Subbasin’s hydrogeology. • Users’ water supplies are managed in diverse jurisdictional settings (a city, a community services district, a county service area, small mutual water supply systems and individual wells in unincorporated rural areas).
• The Subbasin includes diverse land use patterns, including highly urbanized areas, rural residential lots, and both small and large irrigated agricultural operations, some of which include commercial facilities such as wineries, tasting rooms and lodging. • Within irrigated agricultural operations – which collectively use the vast majority of groundwater – there is currently wide variation in the amount of irrigation water applied (acreft/acre), depending on crop type and cultural practice. • The economic resources of individual Subbasin users vary widely. • As stated in Water Code Section 10720.5, no action under SGMA can alter groundwater rights as determined under California common law or statute.
The central premise of SGMA is that the Subbasin’s groundwater is sustainably managed and reasonably accessible to all users. Management actions in this GSP will be developed to seek equity in light of the diverse conditions noted.
Equity in achieving these goals requires that no user is precluded from maintaining reasonable access to groundwater because they lack financial resources. For example, the management ATTACHMENT 1
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
objectives and minimum thresholds outlined in this GSP (Chapter 8) admit the possibility of shallow wells going dry. Such wells often serve disadvantaged residential communities and users who may be challenged to pay for improvements like deepening the well or drilling a new one.
Issues of equity should also be addressed in the distribution of water used for irrigation on different crop production sites. All GSP management efforts (supply enhancement, demand reduction, use allocations) should provide equitable opportunity for all land owners to participate and provide equitable allocation of costs and incentives.
All GSAs responsible for the development and administration of this GSP agree that the management actions established for the Paso Robles Subbasin will uphold the principles of equity outlined above.

Council Agenda Report
From: Ryan Cornell, Administrative Services Director
Subject: Approval of Fiscal Year 2023-24 Budget Amendments, General Fund Appropriations Limit (Gann Limit), and Master Pay Schedule
CEQA Determination: The City find that this action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines Section State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (b)(2)-(3), 15378.
Date: June 20, 2023
Facts
1. The City Council is required to adopt a comprehensive operating and capital expenditure budget in order to authorize the receipt of revenues and to authorize, guide and direct City activities no later than July 1, each year. The Fiscal Year (FY) 2022-23 and 2023-24 Operating and Capital Budget for all funds was approved by City Council on June 21, 2022.
2. As the City approaches the beginning of FY 2023-24, each department assessed their budget to see if any changes in appropriations were necessary for the upcoming fiscal year due to unanticipated items that have arisen since the adoption of the original budget. Additionally, some Council approved actions taken in FY 2022-23 also impacted budget appropriations for the upcoming year.
3. The FY 2023-24 Budget Update Report contains all projected revenues, appropriations and transfers, and shall be implemented by the City Manager per Council policies and direction.
4. The FY 2023-24 staffing authorization includes 296.44 full-time equivalent positions, an increase of
1.06 full-time equivalents from previously authorized.
5. Article XIIIB of the State Constitution, added in November 1979 when voters approved Proposition 4, created a restriction on the amount of government revenue which may be appropriated in any fiscal year (commonly known as the “Gann Initiative”), and requires state and local governments to annually approve an appropriations limit.
6. The appropriations limit may be adjusted annually by a factor comprising the percentage change in population within the city or in the county, combined with either the change in California per capita personal income or the change in the local property tax roll due to the addition of new non-residential construction. The data required to complete the calculation is provided by the State of California, Department of Finance.
7. CalPERS requires governing bodies of local agency of local agencies that contract with CalPERS for retirement benefits to approve and adopt a publicly available pay schedule in accordance with public meeting laws. The pay schedule (Exhibit A of Attachment 3) must identify each position by title, the individual pay rate amount or range for the position, and the time base upon which the pay amounts are calculated, and must be posted at the office of the employer or immediately accessible and available for public review from the employer during normal business hours or posted on the employer’s website (pursuant to California Code of Regulations, Title 2, Section 570.5).
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
Options
1. Take no action;
2. Amend the FY 2023-24 Operating and Capital Improvement Budget, as originally adopted on June 21, 2022, in order to reflect changes in revenues and expenditures anticipated over the coming fiscal year; approve the appropriations limit of $63,225,845 for FY 2023-24, as required by Proposition 4; and approve the Master Pay Schedule;
3. Amend or modify the above options.
Analysis and Conclusions
The purpose of this report is to update the FY 2023-24 budget appropriations based on updated information; this is not a full budget report but rather an update to the report approved by City Council in June 2022. This update includes both estimated revenues and appropriated expenses for the General, Landscape and Lighting District, and Enterprise Funds (Water, Sewer, and Airport). See Attachment No. 3 for further detail.
Fiscal Impact
The total appropriations for FY 2023-24 are $173,050,200, an increase of approximately $7,422,800 when compared to the originally adopted budget. There is no fiscal impact regarding the appropriations limit; the City’s proceeds from taxes and expenditures continue to be below the allowable limit. The appropriations limit is $63,225,845 while the total City appropriations subject to the limit is $61,999,600, which is approximately 98% of the limit.
CEQA
The City find that this action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines Section State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (b)(2)-(3), 15378.

CITY OF EL PASO DE ROBLES
“The Pass of the Oaks”
1000 SPRING STREET • PASO ROBLES, CALIFORNIA 93446
June 20, 2023
Honorable Mayor and City Council,
I am pleased to present the mid-budget cycle update for your review and consideration. As part of the goal setting session in April 2022, the City Council directed staff to return to a two-year budget cycle beginning Fiscal Year 2022-23. The Operating and Capital Budgets for Fiscal Years 2022-23 and 2023-24 were approved by the City Council on June 21, 2022. This marks the midway point in our two-year budget cycle.
Although the budget is formally adopted at a point-in-time, it remains an evolving planning document that is amended throughout the year. Amendments are necessary to recognize changes to revenue streams, the regulatory environment, and the broader economic outlook. These factors are balanced against policy decisions made by City Council, shifting needs of departments to meet community needs, and unforeseen items that arise after the budget is adopted. This document provides a summary of proposed changes to the Fiscal Year 2023-24 budget as compared to the plan the City Council approved one year ago. Overall, the proposed changes are modest and reflective of a local economy that remains stable, but less growth-oriented than in recent years. Unanticipated events such as the winter rainstorms, and the ongoing reorganization of City departments have contributed to the need to make nominal adjustments at this juncture. Staff continue to recognize the need to maximize available taxpayer resources, while striving to provide the best customer service possible. The Fiscal Year 2023-24 proposed budget and recommended amendments aim to achieve this objective. As a result, this is not a full budget report but rather an update to the report approved by the City Council.
General Economic Outlook for Fiscal Year 2023-24
Notwithstanding broader concerns of an economic slowdown, the City remains on solid fiscal footing, with major general revenue sources meeting or exceeding projections. Inflation and the rising costs of borrowing has correlated with a reduction in local auto salestax revenue, although demand for real estate remains strong. Hospitality, leisure, and tourism-related industries remain relatively stable, with yearover-year sales growth in these areas. Development activity continues across all sectors, with new hotels, industrial and residential permitting remaining very strong. Major private development projects such as the Gateway, The Landing, and Paso Commons are hitting key milestones in the development process.
New projects such as the redevelopment of the Ennis Building by Barrelhouse Brewing have been announced. Infrastructure projects to support these and future developments are reflected in this capital improvement budget. Overall, the development outlook for Paso Robles remains bullish.
The local labor market remains very tight, with unemployment rates below the national average. The latest unemployment rate in the San Luis Obispo County was 3 percent as reported by the State. This is down from a revised 3.4 percent in March 2023, and above the year-ago estimate of 2.7 percent. This compares with an unadjusted unemployment rate of 4.3 percent for California and 3.1 percent for the nation during the same period.
Finally, the City has maintained its rainy-day fund above recommended levels set by the Government Finance Officers Association and is continuing to set aside funding into a Section 115 trust to buffer against future projected CalPERS employer cost increases. The City’s general obligation bond rating was
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
reaffirmed at “AA” in spring 2023 and Fiscal Year 2022-23 marked the first time the City received the GFOA Distinguished Budget Presentation Award.
Revenue Update
General Fund Update
At the time the budget was adopted, it was anticipated that General Fund revenues would total $54.3 million for the year. Updated revenue projections now predict General Fund revenues totaling $54.9 million, an increase of about $631,500, or an increase of 1.2%, when compared to the original estimates.
The variances of each revenue source are shown below:
Originally
Adopted
Mid-Year
Update Variance
Sales Tax $ 20,337,400 $ 20,410,200 $ 72,800
Property Tax 13,161,200 13,498,500 337,300
Transient Occupancy Tax 10,125,500 10,377,100 251,600
Other Taxes 4,213,800 4,233,500 19,700
All Other Revenue 6,421,500 6,371,600 (49,900)
Total $ 54,259,400 $ 54,890,900 $ 631,500
The majority of the adjustments related to property and transient occupancy tax (also known as TOT, or Hotel Tax). For property taxes, the City realized solid growth over the past couple of years (5% from FY 20-21 to FY 21-22, and another 6.4% is anticipated from FY 21-22 to FY 22-23), mainly due to sales of residential properties and property tax valuations being reset. This growth is more than what was originally anticipated, so the models now anticipate just under $13.5 million in property tax revenue for the upcoming fiscal year, an increase of approximately $337,000.
From a sales tax perspective, increased online sales from local big box retailer stock have attributed to an increase in revenues. This has counteracted a pattern of reduced sales activity for retail categories such as family apparel, auto sales, and winery purchases. Over the past year, there has been a notable shift in spending to travel, dining, leisure, and entertainment. That all being said, sales tax is anticipated to be relatively flat for the upcoming fiscal year. The good news is that we are not anticipating any backslide to pre-COVID revenue levels.
Moving forward, the forecasted revenue related to property tax remains positive due to the residential housing development occurring in the City. However, it should be noted that it generally takes a couple of years for the City to realize the full property tax generation when a development is occupied. For example, Arrive Paso, the 200-unit apartment complex on Creston Road, anticipates occupancy at the end of December this year. If that were to occur, the City could realize property tax revenue generation as early as FY 2024-25. But if the majority of occupancy doesn’t occur until 2024, those revenues won’t be seen by the City until FY 2025-26.
As previously mentioned, tourism activity in the City has been robust and appears positive moving forward. After realizing year over year loss in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the City realized a 40% increase from FY 19-20 to FY 20-21, and another 37% from FY 20-21 to FY 21-22, where as previously, annual revenue growth was around 7% each year. As a result, growth at that pace was not sustainable, but revenues for FY 22-23 are projected to be $9.8 million, essentially the same as the previous fiscal year,
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
but still significantly higher than it was prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Below is an accumulated month over month year over year analysis of the City’s TOT revenue.
Based on recent tourism data, occupancy rates (the percentage of hotel rooms occupied citywide) are falling back to historic norms, but the room rates (the actual cost of the room) have and continue to stay well above norms. Furthermore, the voters approved Measure F-22, increasing the transient occupancy tax from 10% to 11%. As a result, the model anticipates returning to historical year over year growth at about 7% over estimated FY 22-23 amounts.
Other Funds Revenue Adjustment
There are several additional funds with updates to the revenue estimate. The most significant adjustment is related to the City’s Recycled Water Distribution System. The City was recently awarded a low interest loan to construct this system and, in accordance with Government Accounting Standards, the City records proceeds from issuance of debt as income (and the repayment of debt as an expense). As a result, there is a $22.1 million revenue adjustment to the Sewer Fund revenue as well as a $10 million adjustment relating to grants that will be received for constructing the recycled water line. Likewise, there is also an increase in the Capital Improvement Budget to construct the line, so there is a corresponding increase in costs to account for this.
The City’s 24th Street Bridge project anticipated a $14 million grant award in FY 2023-24. The City was recently notified it did not get the award next year, so this grant has been postponed until future years when funding becomes available. Similar results occurred on one of the Airports CIP projects, where grant funds were not awarded and so the project is postponed until additional funding can be secured.
Lastly, the City had a sublease agreement with the “Sandbox”, the City’s economic meeting space hub.
The City was simply a pass-through agency of collecting rents from the current operator of the Sandbox and paying rents to the owner of the property. Negotiations directly between the landlord and the operator have been taking place over the past couple of months and beginning on July 1, 2023, the City has removed itself from this arrangement. As a result, both revenues (proceeds from the Sandbox) and expenses (lease payments to the landlord) will be removed. -

Measure E-12 Sunset
Fiscal Year 2023-24 represents the last full fiscal year in which Measure E-12 is in place. The Measure generates over $6 million annually, of which 100 percent is invested locally. The half-cent supplemental sales tax provides most of the funding for local street repair, maintenance, and rehabilitation projects. By 2025, over $60 million in Measure E-12 will have been invested in local roadway repairs since the Measure was established in 2012. Nevertheless, the City continues to see cost increases, additional traffic volumes on local roadways and a high percentage of streets that need to be fully reconstructed. For Fiscal Year 2023-24, E-12 funds will be applied to several local road repair projects across the City, including Creston Road, Dallons Drive and neighborhood roads in west, southeast, central and northeast Paso Robles.
Absent the City Council placing the extension of the tax before the voters during the November 2024 general election, the Measure will sunset in early 2025. Without a locally controlled, reliable funding source, the street repair program will be significantly and negatively impacted beginning in 2025. If a measure is placed on the ballot and approved by voters, City staff is developing a new framework that is intended to repair more roadways more quickly, and implement a robust, comprehensive maintenance program to maximize life expectancy of local streets.
Employee Labor Contracts
On December 20, 2022, City Council approved Memorandums of Understanding with the Service Employees International Union, Paso Robles Police Association, and Paso Robles Professional Firefighters; Wage and Benefit Summaries with the Unrepresented Confidential, Professional, and Management Group, and Part-Time Employee Group, and an amendment to the City Manager Employment Agreement.
Wage increases vary by labor group and is based on a combination of a guaranteed amounts, plus additional amounts should the City’s revenues meet certain economic triggers. But because the budget was adopted prior to approval of the MOU’s, the economic factors in these agreements were not included in the adopted budget. The FY 2023-24 budget related to action totals $2.1 million, of which approximately $1.6 million impacting the General and Measure J-20 Funds (given that public safety increases more impactful to those funds).
California Public Employee’s Retirement System (CalPERS) The City is a member of CalPERS which provides defined pension benefits to City employees at retirement.
The system is heavily dependent not only on member and employee contributions, but also investment earnings on those contributions. When these assumptions are not made, an Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL) is created, which is essentially the amount needed to fund past service credit earned. However, there are years where CalPERS may exceed its assumptions, thus lowering (or in some rare cases eliminating) the UAL. CalPERS assumes that the fund will earn 7% from its investments. In 2021 the system significantly exceeded the assumption and realized a 21.3% return, but it was followed in 2022 with a negative -7.5% return. This is not staggering given the volatility in the stock market in recent years. But it should also be noted that it takes a couple of years for these impacts to be realized by the City through its contributions. As an example, the required UAL payment for FY 2023-24 has actually decreased since the budget was adopted last year because the City is finally realizing the 21.3% gain from 2021. Overall, the 2021 gains actually decreased the City’s total UAL from $39.8 million to $23.5 million, and improved the City’s funding status to 86%. However, since we already known that 2022 assumptions have not been met, 2021 can be more viewed as an anomaly than a trend, and we can expect our contributions to increase
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
more than anticipated in future years. The City has been proactive in addressing the City’s UAL and to minimize impacts to City contributions when CalPERS does not meet their assumed rate of return and/or changes their assumptions. In 2017, the City established a Section 115 Pension Trust Fund (on June 30, 2022, the Trust had a fair market value balance of $8.1 million) which is essentially a restricted savings account that can only be used towards pension contributions. The FY 2023-24 budget had assumed a $4.1 million contribution to CalPERS for its annual UAL payment, but given the 2021 returns, the required contribution is now $3.5 million, thus lowering the City’s required payment by $615,000. However, given what is known in 2022, and a 3.35% return anticipated in 2023 (which is still below assumptions), it is staff’s recommendation to redirect those dollars to the City’s Section 115 Trust Fund. It is likely the City will utilize the Trust fund in 2027 when the full impacts of the 2022 year are realized.
Recommended Personnel Changes
The originally adopted budget authorized 295.38 FTE positions for FY 2023-24, which is an additional 16.04 FTE from FY 2022-23. Nine of these new positions are located within the City’s public safety departments in the form of police officers and civilian staff to support additions. Other positions are due to the reorganization of the Public Works and Community Services Departments, as well as within the Community Development Department to prepare for the significant residential and commercial development on the immediate horizon. Finally, there are a small number of positions in the remainder of the departments that improve service levels, increase capacity or create efficiencies within the organization. However, since the budget was adopted, there are four recommended changes for the upcoming year:
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
1. Reclassify the Fire Prevention Specialist I position to a Fire Prevention Specialist II: The Fire and Emergency Services currently staffs its Fire Prevention Bureau with a Fire Marshall, Administrative Captain, Fire Prevention Specialist II, and a Fire Prevention Specialist I. Staff recommends upgrading the one Fire Prevention Specialist I position to a Fire Prevention Specialist II position. The Fire Prevention Specialist II position performs the same duties as an entry-level Fire Prevention Specialist I, with additional experience, training, and education toward more complex systems. Large-scale commercial and residential development in the building process, and many more in the city's project pipeline, show a need for inspectors at the Fire Prevention Specialist II level. Currently, we utilize a contract to fill our experience and training gap. With the ability to have two Fire Prevention Specialist II’s, the department would rely less on the contract employee and will better serve our developers' needs by allowing for early morning, late afternoon, and concurrent level II inspections covered five days a week.
2. Reclassify one previously authorized Police Officer position to a Records Supervisor: The Police Department currently employs one Support Services Manager, who oversees the Records and Dispatch operations of the City. The City also employs a Dispatch Supervisor, but is solely dedicated to overseeing the day-to-day operations of the just the communications division; the City currently does not have a Records Supervisor. Previously, the City had one Records and Dispatch Supervisor, but the growth of the department created the need to reclassify that position to a Management position. The City has been recruiting for a new Support Services Manager for the past year, but to-date has been unsuccessful. Regardless, the long-term vision for the department would be symmetrical where there would be a supervisor over each division (both Records and Dispatch) with those supervisors reporting to the Support Services Manager. That being said, staff recommends reclassifying one of the authorized Police Officer positions to a Records Supervisor. This would decrease the authorized additional Police Officer positions in FY 2023-24 from seven to six (bringing to the total Police Officer positions funded with Measure J-20 from 21 to 20). The additional Police Officer position is still needed, but with the current challenges in recruiting for officers, it is not anticipated that this position would be filled in the year.
3. Consolidate two part-time Community Services Officers positions to one full-time position:
The Police Department currently employs two part-time Community Services Officer positions. One of the Community Services Officers is retiring from the City next year and the other is likely to enter the Police Academy in July. As such, the City has a unique opportunity to consolidate those two part-time positions into one full-time position. It is also envisioned that this consolidation will help rotate and cross-train additional staff on the downtown parking program.
4. Temporary Water Staff Assistants: The City’s Water Division is in need of some temporary work related to the City’s AMI (advanced metering infrastructure) and service line meter inventory. This change would bring on an additional four to five staff assistants for a 3-month period to inventory the type of materials going into and out of each water meter (as required by the State), as well as measure the water meter boxes in preparation for purchasing AMI compliant water meter lids.
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
Organizational Restructure
As discussed throughout the budget preparation process, staff proposed a reorganization (hereinafter referred to as the “reorg”) impacting the City Manager’s Office, Administrative Services, Public Works, and Community Services Departments. The most significant portion of the reorganization separates the utilities functions of the City (i.e., sewer, refuse, water and utility billing) into a standalone Utilities Department and realigns specific functions under Public Works and Community Services Departments.
The reorganization added six total new positions to achieve the objectives outlined above.
The City has implemented a significant portion of the reorg, with only the Utility Billing division to be transferred to the new Utilities Department to occur (City staff is waiting for the construction of new office buildings at the Fire Station No. 3 location before moving over). However, the splitting of the landscaping crews (one to park and trail maintenance under Community Services and one to right-of-way maintenance under Public Works) has been more challenging than initially anticipated. Specifically, determining baseline budget amounts as some expenditures are staying within Community Services and some are moving to Public Works. That said, there is an increase of approximately $508,000 to Public Works operating expenses to account for this part of the reorg, and a corresponding decrease of $231,300 in Community Services, for a net increase of $276,700.
Community Events
There are three recommended changes to the City’s Community Events budget, two of which have already been approved by City Council, as follows:
1. On March 21, 2023, the City Council approved the July 4, 2023 Community Fireworks Celebration at Barney Schwartz Park. The total cost of the event is estimated to be $151,000, offset in part by sponsorship outreach program, with a minimum of $50,000 covered by Travel Paso.
2. On April 4, 2023, the City Council approved the Airport 50th Anniversary Celebration on September 23, 2023. The total cost of the event is $52,000, split equally between the General Fund and the Airport Fund.
The third change to the Community Events budget pertains to a “Light Up the Downtown” event this holiday season. Specifically, staff recommends an additional $90,000 appropriation to include a robust thematic lighting of the Carnegie Library as well as expanded lighting of City Park trees. This project seeks to substantially improve seasonal holiday lighting within downtown and City Park and create a unique and expanded holiday experience for the community.
Landscape and Lighting District
The Landscape and Lighting District was formed in 1989 for ongoing maintenance of streetlights, hardscapes, detention basins, parkways, median islands, open space, slopes, and other related appurtenant facilities. Each year, the City generates an Engineer’s Report, which is critical to estimating costs to maintain the District and is the basis for assessing properties within the District (each parcel is assessed proportionately for only those improvements and expenses for which the parcel receives special benefit). The maintenance, operation and servicing of the improvements associated with specific areas of the District that provide a special benefit to the properties within those areas are grouped into benefit zones that have historically been identified in this District as Sub-Areas. These Sub-Areas identify the properties within a particular commercial development or residential subdivision that benefit from improvements that were installed in connection with the development of those properties or directly benefit those properties. While many of the improvements maintained by the District provide special
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
benefits to only the properties within a particular Sub-Area, some improvements installed as part of developing properties within one Sub-Area also provide a direct and special benefit to properties within nearby or adjacent Sub-Areas. In these cases, several Sub-Areas have been grouped into Zones based on these shared improvements and the cost of maintaining those shared improvements, are proportionately allocated to the properties within each of the individual benefiting Sub-Areas. However, not all Zones established within this District have improvements that are shared by each of the Sub-Areas within that Zone. Some of the District Zones represent geographical regions of the District, where the Sub-Areas may have similar improvements, but each Sub-Area is budgeted and assessed for only the improvements or that portion of an improvement that were installed and/or resulted from the development of the properties within that particular Sub-Area. In other words, the Landscape and Lighting District is quite complicated and accounting for costs by each Sub-Area level is challenging.
To help with this challenge, the City purchased a standalone database to account for all charges related to the Landscape and Lighting District; this database is an integral part of the Engineer’s Report but is separate and apart from the City’s Financial ERP system. Between 2019 and 2020, this database got corrupted and the reserve and expenditure amounts in the database are no longer accurate. Additionally, there is a “General Benefit” included in the Engineer’s Report to account for benefits of the Landscape and Lighting District to properties outside of District boundaries. Typically, this benefit has been charged by the General Fund by not charging associated overhead costs (e.g., Finance, Payroll, City Clerk) to the District. Unfortunately, since 2017 this accounting has not taken place.
City finance and public works staff have been working together over the past several months to transition the accounting and expenditure tracking within the City’s ERP system, and not the standalone database.
This will bridge any discrepancies between the Landscape and Lighting District and the Engineer’s Report sooner, as the City’s finances are audited each year. That all being said, in order to make the Landscape and Lighting District Fund whole, a one-time, $1.1 million transfer, from the General Fund to the Landscape and Lighting District Fund is needed (thisis not expending funds, but rather transferring monies from one fund to another). This would create a Landscape and Lighting reserve balance of $1.5 million.
Moving forward, the Landscape and Lighting District still faces fiscal challenges as the full costs to maintenance the District exceeds the assessments collected. As such, finance and public works staff will continue to evaluate the District, reduce costs as much as possible, properly account for and track the General Benefit within the District, and reduce the allocation of personnel being charged directly to the District from 1.6 FTE to 0.5 FTE.
Capital Improvement Program
The City completed two major road maintenance capital projects this past year: Dry Creek Road and the Rambouillet and Nicklaus Street neighborhood. Both projects came in under budget by approximately $1.5 million. These funds will go back to Measure E-12 fund reserves to be reprogrammed to another road maintenance project.
Additional CIP adjustments are as follows:
1. Creston Road: An additional $3 million is being added to the project to account for a State grant the City received from Senator Laird’s office.
2. 24th Street Bridge: Unfortunately, the City was not awarded a construction grant for this past grant cycle, so construction on the bridge will be delayed by at least one year. This reduced the project by $16 million, returning approximately $2 million of Transportation Impact Fees back to reserves
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
(the remaining $14 million was anticipated to be funded by a federal grant). However, this is simply delayed, and appropriations will be reprogrammed once grant funding becomes available.
3. Huer Huero Creek Bridge: Preliminary strategy had anticipated that construction of this bridge would occur sometime in FY 2023-24. However, based on where the preliminary design is at today, construction will not occur until FY 2024-25, if not later. As such, the construction budget has been postponed to future years.
4. Railroad Crossing Water Line Replacements: The Water Master Plan calls for the replacement of water lines at the railroad crossings throughout the City. The budget already has appropriations for the design of the project and it is not anticipated to be completed until the end of the fiscal year. As such, appropriations for the construction phase have been pushed out by one year.
5. Water and Wastewater Line Replacements: The City’s road maintenance schedule calls for improvements to the segments at Sherwood, 17th Street, Sierra Bonita, and Sunset/Panoramaarea. However, prior to road construction, the water and wastewater line rehabilitation are necessary. These lines have been identified in the City’s Water and Wastewater Master plan, albeit ahead of schedule. As a result, additional appropriations are being made from Water and Wastewater reserves to cover the advanced work of the lines. It should be noted that if the City continues to be aggressive with road maintenance treatment, the enterprise funds will not be able to keep pace. As such, in the future, there is likely to be some interfund lending to occur as to be sure there are adequate fund reserves in the enterprise funds.
6. Recycled Water Line: The City was recently awarded a low-interest State Revolving Fund loan and a variety of grants pertaining to the City’s Recycled Water Distribution System. It was unknown what funding would be made available, so it was left out of the budget. But now that we have been awarded, the project budget is being updated accordingly.
7. Stormwater Basins: The adopted budget included six stormwater basin location in need of maintenance and rehabilitation for a total of $672,000. Design is currently underway, but preliminary engineer’s estimates indicate that the project is underfunded by $100,000.
8. Centennial Park Parking Lot Improvements: The originally adopted budget calls for the repavement of the parking lot at Centennial Park. After review of the condition, the lot will require a complete grind and overlay, and would also result in upgrading all curb ramps and sidewalks to ADA standards. This has added approximately $120,000 to the project.
There are two underfunded capital projects that are being deferred until either a funding solution becomes available, or determination of a permanent solution can be made. One of the capital projects is the stucco repair needed on the City Hall/Library building. An analysis of the stucco revealed that the entire stucco on the building is in need of replacement, and limiting the repairs to wear the cracks are visible will not remedy the issue. This is estimated to costs more than $225,000 (the original budget was for $65,000). The second project is related to the arbor and shade structure at Centennial Park. The project budget was approximately $40,000, with bid results coming in excess of $100,000.
Emergency Repairs in Response to the 2023 Storms
The City experienced two 100-year storms this winter. As a result, on January 12, 2023, the City Council declared a local state of emergency due to a severe storm even that resulted in sustained damage to
City Council Agenda June 20, 2023
public and private infrastructure. The City is working with the California Office of Emergency Services and the Federal Emergency Management Agency in order to seek reimbursement for the damages caused by the storm. That being said, it is unknown how much each of these participating agencies will be contributing towards these damages, and as such, staff recommend appropriating from fund reserves to cover the cost of repair. Afterwards, should the City get reimbursement, those funds will be returned to fund reserves. Below are the location and budget pertaining to this event:
Damaged Facility General Water Wastewater
Sinkhole at Bolen Drive $ 300,000 $ - $ -
Larry Moore Park
Playground, Fence, Grading 30,700 - -
Riverwalk Trail Repair 31,000 - -
Police Shooting Range 20,500 - -
Fire Station No. 3 Sidewalk 18,200 - -
Dry Creek Trail 45,400 - -
Rambouillet/Snead Trail 14,600 - -
Water Treatment Plant and
Yard Rock Slope Protection - 168,000 -
Ronconi Well Repairs - 40,000 -

Total $ 460,400 $ 208,000 $ 200,000
Citywide Contingency
Beginning in the FY 2018-19 and 2019-20 Adopted Budget, the City included a “Citywide Contingency” line-item for $250,000, for the purpose of addressing unforeseen expenditures that arise throughout the fiscal year that wasn’t originally planned or expected. During the 2020-21 fiscal year, this amount was reduced to $125,000 to mitigate the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic but increased back to $250,000 during FY 2021-22. The FY 2022-23 and 2023-24 Adopted Budget erroneously left out this lineitem, so it is staff recommendation to reinstate this item.
Conclusion
Moving into Fiscal Year 2023-24, I remain optimistic about the trajectory of our organization and the vibrancy of our community. With a stable fiscal foundation, a strong vision set by the City Council, and the dedication of nearly 300 staff members, we are primed to see many achievements over the next 12 months. I greatly appreciate the leadership the City Council continues to provide, the input from the community, and the behind the scenes work of the City team to implement your direction.
In Partnership,
