Exhibit A
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
Appendix A: 1 of 4 Revised November 2011
APPENDIX A: TERMS FOR CANNON SERVICES
Section 1: The Agreement
1.1 The agreement between the above noted parties consists of the following terms, the attached proposal and any exhibits or attachments noted in the proposal. Together these elements will constitute the entire agreement superseding any and all prior negotiations, correspondence, or agreements either written or oral. Any changes to this agreement must be mutually agreed to in writing.
Section 2: Standard of Care
2.1 Data, interpretations, and recommendations by Cannon will be based solely on information provided to Cannon. Cannon is responsible for those data, interpretations, and recommendations, but will not be responsible for other parties' interpretations or use of the information developed.
2.2 Services performed by Cannon under this agreement are expected by the Client to be conducted in a manner consistent with the level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by members of this profession practicing contemporaneously under similar conditions in the locality of the project. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made.
2.3 The Client agrees that Cannon may use and publish the Client's name and a general description of Cannon’s services with respect to the project in describing Cannon’s experience and qualifications to other Clients and prospective Clients. The Client also agrees that any patentable or copyrightable concepts developed by Cannon as a consequence of service hereunder are the sole and exclusive property of Cannon.
2.4 The Client recognizes that it is neither practical nor customary for Cannon to include all construction details in plans and specifications, creating a need for interpretation by Cannon or an individual who is under Cannon’s supervision. The Client also recognizes that construction review permits Cannon to identify and correct quickly and at comparatively low-cost professional errors or omissions that are revealed through construction, or errors or omissions committed by others due to misinterpretation of design documents, or due to other causes. For the foregoing reasons construction review is generally considered an essential element of a complete design professional service. Accordingly, if the Client directs Cannon not to provide construction monitoring, Cannon shall be held harmless for any and all acts, errors or omissions, except for those consequences which it reasonably could be concluded that Cannon’s review services would not have prevented or mitigated.
2.5 Client acknowledges that Cannon is not responsible for the performance of work by third parties including, but not limited to, engineers, architects, contractors, subcontractors, or suppliers of Client.
Section 3: Billing and Payment
3.1 Client will pay Cannon on a monthly basis to be billed by Cannon. Prior to the start of the project, a retainer as specified in the proposal, is required. Invoices for the balance will be submitted to Client by Cannon and will be due and payable within 10 days of invoice date. If Client objects to all or any portion of any invoice, Client will so notify Cannon in writing within fourteen (14) days of the invoice date, identify the cause of the disagreement, and pay when due that portion of the invoice not in dispute. The parties will immediately make every effort to settle the disputed portion of the invoice. In the absence of written notification described above, the balance as stated on the invoice will be paid.
3.2 Invoices are delinquent if payment has not been received within thirty (30) days from date of invoice.
Client will pay an additional charge of 1-1/2 (1.5) percent per month or 18% per year of any delinquent amount, excepting any portion of the invoiced amount in dispute and resolved in favor of Client. All time spent and expenses incurred (including any attorney's fees) in connection with collection of any delinquent amount will be paid by Client to Cannon per Cannon’s current fee schedule. In the event Client fails to pay Cannon within sixty (60) days after invoices are rendered, Client agrees that Cannon will have the right to consider the failure to pay Cannon’s invoice as a breach of this agreement.
3.3 Client agrees that if Client requests services not specified herein, Client agrees to timely pay for all such services as extra work. Cannon will notify the Client prior to performance of services which are not specified in this agreement.
3.4 Client agrees that payment to Cannon is in no way contingent on the results of work by Cannon or on the outcome of any litigation.
3.5 Preparation for and/or travel time to client requested meetings will be charged at the hourly rate.
3.6 Billing rates are subject to change, typically on an annual basis.

Section 6: Ownership of Documents
6.1 All reports, maps, plans, field data, field notes, estimates and other documents, whether in hard copy or machine readable form, which are prepared by Cannon as instruments of professional service, shall remain the property of Cannon.

Before commencement of any construction, alteration, addition, replacement or restoration of any building, structure or other improvement, Tenant shall (A) give to Landlord written notice of the work to be performed, specifying the nature and location of the intended work and the expected date of commencement and completion thereof; and (B) provide Landlord with written plans and specifications therefor, and shall have obtained the written approval thereof from the Landlord as required above. Landlord reserves the right at any time and from time to time to post and maintain on the Leased Premises such notices as may be necessary to protect Landlord against liability for all such liens and claims.
8.7. Covenant Against Liens and Claims. Tenant shall not allow or permit to be enforced against the Leased Premises or any part thereof, any mechanic's, materialmen's, contractor's or subcontractor's liens arising from any claim growing out of work of any construction, repair, restoration, replacement or improvement, or any other claim or demand no matter how the same may arise.

A condition to Tenant's right to contest the validity of any lien, claim or demand shall be that if Landlord shall require, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord evidence of a surety bond satisfactory to Landlord in an amount at least equal to the contested lien, claim or demand, the effect of which is to indemnify Landlord against liability for the same, and to hold the Leased Premises free from the effect of such lien or claim.

In the event Tenant shall fail to pay and discharge or cause to be paid and discharged, when due and payable, any tax, assessment or other charge upon or in connection with the Leased Premises, or any lien or claim for labor or material employed or used or any claim for damages arising out of the construction, repair, restoration, replacement, maintenance and use of the Leased Premises and any improvements thereon, or any judgment on any contested lien or claim, or any insurance premium or expense in connection with the Leased Premises and improvements, or any other claim, charge or demand which Tenant has agreed to pay or cause to be paid under the terms of this Lease, and if Tenant, after fifteen (15) days' written notice from Landlord to do so shall fail to pay and discharge the same, or in the event Tenant contests such tax, assessment, claim or charge and fails to post security as provided elsewhere in this Lease, then Landlord may, at his option, pay any such tax, assessment, insurance expense, lien, claim, charge or demand, or settle or discharge any action therefor, or judgment thereon, and all costs, expenses and other sums incurred or paid by Landlord in connection with any of the foregoing shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand, together with interest thereon at Bank of America's prime rate from the date incurred or paid. Any default in such repayment by Tenant shall constitute a breach of the covenants and conditions of this Lease.
8.10. Prevailing Wage.

The premiums paid by Landlord shall be treated as added rent due from Tenant with interest at the Bank of America prime rate, to be paid within thirty (30) days of demand. Landlord shall give prompt notice of the payment of such premiums, stating the amounts paid and the names of the insurer or insurers.

If during the term of this Lease any building or improvement on the Leased Premises or any part thereof shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, repair or restore the same according to the original plans thereof or to such modified plans as shall be previously approved in writing by Landlord pursuant to Section 8. If such damage or destruction occurs during the last eighteen (18) months of the Lease term Tenant shall have no duty to repair or restore, and if Tenant elects not to repair or restore, this Lease shall terminate and Landlord shall receive all insurance proceeds that are attributable to those improvements that would become the property of the Landlord pursuant to Section 17. Such work of repair or restoration shall be commenced within one hundred twenty (120) days after the damage or loss occurs and shall be completed with diligence but not longer than one (1) year after such work is commenced, provided, however, that the time for completion of such repair and restoration shall be extended as appropriate in accordance with the provisions of Section 21.15 below. If insurance proceeds provided for above shall be insufficient for the purpose of such restoration and repair, or if the casualty is one not required to be insured against, then Tenant shall make up the deficiency out of its own funds. Tenant waives the provisions of Civil Code Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) with respect to any destruction of the Premises.
11. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
11.1. Restriction of Assignment.

Landlord's consent will not be unreasonably withheld. If Tenant is a corporation or a partnership, any change in Tenant which would be a "change in ownership" pursuant to California Revenue and Taxation Code Sections 60 et seq. shall be deemed an assignment subject to Landlord's consent. It shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to withhold or condition its consent based on the prospective assignee's financial strength, credit history or any other factor which Landlord reasonably believes germane to a tenant's ability and willingness to perform the obligations of this Lease. No such assignment shall release Tenant of further liability under this Lease unless express written approval is signed by Landlord.

Tenant's failure to comply with any of the foregoing requirements shall render any such sublease void.
11.3. Effect of Failure to Comply. Except as provided above, no encumbrance, assignment or other transfer, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law, under legal process, through a receivership, bankruptcy or otherwise, shall be valid or effective without the prior written consent and approval of Landlord. Except as provided in Section 11.1 and 11.2, if Tenant attempts to make or allow to be made any subleasing, encumbrance, assignment or other transfer except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11, then any of the foregoing events shall be deemed a breach of the conditions and restrictions of this Lease, and upon such breach, Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease at once by written notice, and upon such termination this Lease shall end and be of no further force.
12. CONDEMNATION
If, during the term of this Lease there is a taking, or transfer of, or damage to all or any part of the Leased Premises (Leased Premises as used herein shall include all appurtenant interests such as access rights) for a public use by any individual or entity, public or private, possessing the power of eminent domain, whether by condemnation proceedings or otherwise (hereinafter referred to as "appropriation"), the rights and obligations of Landlord and Tenant with regard to such appropriation shall be governed by the provisions of this Section.
12.1. Date of Taking. The date of taking, as used in this Section, is defined as the earliest of the following dates: (A) the date legal possession is taken, which is defined as the date, if any is established, after which the condemnor may take possession of the property as stated in an order authorizing the condemnor to take possession; (B) the date a final order of condemnation or final judgment is filed or recorded or the date a deed is recorded in the event of a voluntary sale; and (C) the date physical possession of the property is taken.

12.4. Abandonment of Proceedings. In the event the condemning agency shall abandon an eminent domain proceeding, either party hereto shall have the right to contest the condemnor's abandonment and a right to its respective costs and disbursements as defined and provided for in California law. If after the condemnor takes possession or the Tenant moves from the property sought to be condemned in compliance with an order of possession, the condemnor abandons the proceeding as to such property or a portion thereof, or if it is determined that the condemnor does not have authority to take such property or portion thereof by eminent domain and the condemnor is required by law to deliver possession of such property or such portion thereof to the party entitled to the possession thereof and pay damages as provided for in California law, then Tenant shall receive the award for costs and damages incurred by reason of Tenant being removed from possession of the Premises, but Tenant shall be entitled to retake possession of the Premises and, in the event of such repossession by Tenant, all of the terms of this Lease shall remain in operation and effect.
12.5. Allocation of Award. All compensation and damages awarded for the taking of the Leased Premises or any portion thereof shall, except as otherwise herein provided, belong to and be the sole property of Landlord.
However, any award that may be made for the taking of or injury to the Approved Improvements, and all other improvements constructed by Tenant on the Leased Premises shall belong to Tenant. Tenant shall be entitled to any award for damage to Tenant's business or on account of any cost or loss Tenant may sustain in the removal of Tenant's fixtures, equipment and furnishings, or as a result of any alterations, modifications or repairs which may be reasonably required by Tenant in order to place the remaining portion of the Leased Premises not so condemned in a suitable condition for the continuance of Tenant's tenancy. Tenant shall also be entitled to that portion of any award that may be attributable to any severance damages to the remaining leasehold interest, to any improvements constructed by Tenant, and to good will.
12.6. Cost. Each party shall bear his own costs, attorneys' fees, appraiser's fees and all other costs in connection with any matter contained in this Section, except as may be otherwise provided.

F. Default by Tenant under the terms of any mortgage on the estate of Tenant.
G.

14.1. Termination. In the event of the occurrence of any event of default, Landlord shall have the right to give a written termination notice to Tenant, and on the date specified in such notice, Tenant's right to possession shall terminate, and this Lease shall terminate unless on or before such date all Rent in arrears and all costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Landlord hereunder shall have been paid by Tenant and all other events of default of this Lease by Tenant at the time existing shall have been fully remedied to the satisfaction of Landlord.
At any time after such termination, Landlord may recover possession of the Premises or any part thereof and expel and remove therefrom Tenant and any other person occupying the same, including any subtenant or subtenants notwithstanding Landlord's consent to any sublease, by any lawful means, and again repossess and enjoy the Premises without prejudice to any of the remedies that Landlord may have under this Lease, or at law or equity by any reason of Tenant's default or of such termination. Landlord hereby reserves the right, but shall not have the obligation, to recognize the continued possession of any subtenant. The delivery or surrender to Landlord by or on behalf of Tenant of keys, entry codes, or other means to bypass security at the Premises shall not terminate this Lease.
14.2. Continuation after Default. Even though an event of default may have occurred, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession under Section 14.1 hereof. Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 ("Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenant's breach and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, if

82477.03000\41062594.1
Attachment 2
Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations"), or any successor code section.
Accordingly, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any event of default by Tenant, Landlord may enforce all of Landlord's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover Rent as it becomes due. Acts of maintenance, preservation or efforts to lease the Premises or the appointment of a receiver under application of Landlord to protect Landlord's interest under this Lease or other entry by Landlord upon the Premises shall not constitute an election to terminate Tenant's right to possession.
14.3. Damages After Default. Should Landlord terminate this Lease pursuant to the provisions of Section 14.1 hereof, Landlord shall have the rights and remedies of a Landlord provided by Section 1951.2 of the Civil Code of the State of California, or any successor code sections. Upon such termination, in addition to any other rights and remedies to which Landlord may be entitled under applicable law or at equity, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant: (1) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid Rent and other amounts which had been earned at the time of termination, (2) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and other amounts that would have been earned after the date of termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; (3) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and other amounts for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that the Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; and (4) any other amount and court costs necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform Tenant's obligations under this Lease or which, in the ordinary course of things, would be likely to result therefrom. The "worth at the time of award" as used in (1) and (2) above shall be computed at the Applicable Interest Rate (defined below). The "worth at the time of award" as used in (3) above shall be computed by discounting such amount at the Federal Discount Rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%). If this Lease provides for any periods during the Term during which Tenant is not required to pay Base Rent or if Tenant otherwise receives a Rent concession, then upon the occurrence of an event of default, Tenant shall owe to Landlord the full amount of such Base Rent or value of such Rent concession, plus interest at the Applicable Interest Rate, calculated from the date that such Base Rent or Rent concession would have been payable.
14.4. Landlord’s Option to Cure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant fails to provide necessary repair and maintenance of the Premises and all improvements thereon, Landlord shall have the right but not the obligation, after notice provided for above, and failure of Tenant to cure or commence and diligently pursue a cure to such default, to enter the Premises and take all corrective action necessary in the sole judgment of Landlord. Any such entry shall be at the sole risk and expense of Tenant. Tenant shall immediately, upon presentation of a statement therefor, reimburse Landlord for all costs incurred by Landlord in taking such corrective action with interest on said sums from the date of payment by Landlord at the lower of: (A) the highest rate allowed by law; or (B) two points over the prime rate charged from time to time by the Bank of America, or if the Bank of America no longer exists, an equivalent institution. Nothing in this Section shall: (i) require Landlord to take any corrective action on the Premises; (ii) diminish the rights and remedies of Landlord under this Lease, whether or not Landlord elects to take such corrective action; and (iii) cause a waiver by Landlord of any of its rights and remedies under this Lease. Any such reentry shall be allowed by Tenant without hindrance, and Landlord shall not be liable in damages for any such reentry, or be guilty of trespass or forcible entry.
14.5. Remedies Cumulative. All of Landlord’s rights, privileges and elections or remedies are cumulative and not alternative, to the extent permitted by law and except as otherwise provided herein.
14.6. Replacement of Statutory Notice Requirements. When this Lease requires service of a notice, that notice shall replace rather than supplement any equivalent or similar statutory notice, including any notice required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161 or any similar or successor statute. When a statute requires service of a notice in a particular manner, service of that notice (or a similar notice required by this Lease) in the manner required by this Section 14.6 shall replace and satisfy the statutory service-of-notice procedures, including those required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1162 or any similar or successor statute.

82477.03000\41062594.1
Attachment 2

19. HYPOTHECATION OF LEASEHOLD INTEREST
Tenant is hereby given the right by Landlord, in addition to any other rights herein granted, without Landlord's prior written consent, to mortgage its interest in this Lease, under one or more leasehold Mortgage(s) and assign its interest in this Lease, as collateral security for such Mortgage(s) to secure any bona fide loan upon the condition that all rights acquired under such leasehold Mortgage(s) shall be subject to each and all of the covenants, conditions and restrictions set forth in this Lease, and to all rights and interest of Landlord herein, none of which covenants, conditions or restrictions is or shall be deemed waived by Landlord by reason of the right given so to mortgage such interest in this Lease, except as expressly provided herein. If Tenant shall mortgage this leasehold, and if the holder(s) of such Mortgage(s) shall, within thirty (30) days of execution, send to Landlord a true copy thereof, together with written notice specifying the name and address of the Mortgagee(s) and the pertinent recording data with respect to such Mortgage(s), Landlord agrees that (effective upon receipt of such notice) so long as any such leasehold Mortgage(s) shall remain unsatisfied of record or until written notice of satisfaction is given by the holder(s) to Landlord, the following provisions shall apply:
19.1. Except for the natural expiration of the term of this Lease, there shall be no cancellation, surrender or material modification of this Lease by joint action of Landlord and Tenant without the prior consent in writing of the leasehold Mortgagee(s);
19.2. Landlord shall, upon serving Tenant with any notice of default, simultaneously serve a copy of such notice upon the holder(s) of record of such leasehold Mortgage(s). The leasehold Mortgagee(s) shall thereupon have sixty (60) days, after service on it of such a notice, either to cure such default or breach, if the same can be cured by the payment of money, or if such default or breach is not so curable or cannot be remedied within said sixty (60) day period, if such holder, within said period, shall (A) commence in good faith to cure such default or breach if curable and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion, or (B) institute proceedings for the foreclosure of such mortgage and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion; provided such holder keeps and performs all of the covenants and conditions of this Lease herein provided to be kept and performed by Tenant, and capable of being performed by such holder, until such time as Tenant or such holder shall cure any defaults hereunder (if curable) or until the leasehold hereunder shall be either sold upon foreclosure pursuant to any such mortgage or shall be released from said mortgage or reconveyed thereunder.
The time periods set forth immediately above shall be extended for delays occasioned by the application of any law, rule, court order or court decree restraining or prohibiting such leasehold Mortgagee(s) from taking any such action. If such leasehold Mortgagee(s) undertakes to so cure any such default by Tenant in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this subsection 19.2, Landlord shall not terminate this Lease. If the leasehold Mortgagee(s) has fully complied with the foregoing provisions of this subsection 19.2 but all such defaults of Tenant have not been cured by the time that Tenant's interest under this Lease is sold by a judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure sale or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the party who acquires such leasehold estate and interest through such foreclosure sale or deed in lieu of foreclosure shall not be in default hereunder by reason of such uncured defaults, provided such party diligently prosecutes to completion the curing of all such defaults which are curable by such party.
19.3. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Landlord shall elect to terminate this Lease by reason of any default of Tenant, the leasehold Mortgagee(s) shall have the right to postpone and extend the specified date for termination of this Lease as fixed by Landlord in its notice of termination, for a period of six (6) months, provided that such leasehold Mortgagee(s) shall cure or cause to be cured any then existing money defaults and meanwhile pay the rent and comply with and perform all of the other terms, conditions and provisions of this Lease on Tenant's part to be complied with and performed, and capable of being performed by such holder, other than past nonmonetary defaults, and provided further that the leasehold Mortgagee(s) shall

82477.03000\41062594.1
Attachment 2
forthwith take steps to acquire or sell Tenant's interest in this Lease by foreclosure of the Mortgage(s) or otherwise and shall prosecute the same to completion with all due diligence. If at the end of said six (6) month period the leasehold Mortgagee(s) shall be actively engaged in steps to acquire or sell Tenant's interest herein, the time of said Mortgagee(s) to comply with the provisions of this Section 19.3 shall be extended for such period as shall be reasonably necessary to complete such steps with reasonable diligence, but in no event shall such extension exceed an additional twelve (12) months.
19.4. Landlord agrees that the name of the leasehold Mortgagee(s) may be added to the "Loss Payable Endorsement" of any and all insurance policies required to be carried by Tenant hereunder on condition that the insurance proceeds are to be applied in the manner specified in this Lease and that the leasehold Mortgagee(s) or collateral document shall so provide.
19.5. Nothing contained herein shall require the leasehold Mortgagee(s) to cure any default of Tenant hereunder, but such failure to cure and proceed in accordance with this Section 19 shall leave Landlord free to terminate this Lease and to pursue all of its rights against Tenant.
19.6. Any act required to be performed by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease may be performed by any leasehold mortgagee on Tenant's behalf and the performance of such act shall be deemed to be performance by Tenant and shall be acceptable as Tenant's act by Landlord.

Subject: Acceptance of Annual Report on Military Equipment Use Pursuant to AB 481 and Renewal of Ordinance No. 1119.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: July 18, 2023
Facts
1. Governor Gavin Newsom signed Assembly Bill 481 into law in 2021; the bill requires law enforcement agencies to obtain approval of an ordinance adopting a military equipment policy through that agency’s governing body (i.e. City Council).
2. On June 21, 2022, City Council adopted Ordinance 1119 N.S, adopting the City’s Military Equipment Use Policy.
3. Upon approval of a military equipment policy, the Chief of police, or the designee, must annually submit to the City Council a military equipment report which details information about how and when the military equipment was used in the preceding calendar year (Government Code 7072).
4. The Paso Robles Police Department possesses and uses equipment regulated by this ordinance (Attachment 1).
5. The Paso Robles Police Department has implemented a military use policy in accordance with Assembly Bill 481 (Attachment 2). Per the policy, section 706.1, the Paso Robles Police Department must submit an annual report for military equipment use.
6. The term “military equipment” is defined in California Government Code 7070(c) and includes many items which are considered industry standard, are commercially produced, not obtained from the military.
7. Assembly Bill 481 also requires the City Council to review and vote on whether to renew the military equipment use ordinance at a regular meeting (Government Code 7071).
Options
1. Take no action;
2. Approve the annual military equipment report pursuant to California Government Code 7072 and vote to renew Ordinance 1119 N.S.;
3. Provide alternative direction to staff.
Analysis and Conclusions
AB 481 was enacted to increase transparency, accountability, and oversight surrounding the use and acquisition of military equipment by state and local law enforcement. It requires law enforcement agencies to obtain approval from the legislative bodies that oversee them before purchasing, raising funds for, or acquiring military equipment, by any means. Law enforcement agencies are also required to obtain approval by their legislative bodies before collaborating with another law enforcement agency in
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
the deployment or use of military equipment within the law enforcement agencies jurisdiction, or before using any new or existing military equipment not previously approved.
Under AB 481, a governing body approval must take the form of an ordinance adopting a publicly released, written military equipment use policy, which must address a number of specific topics, including the type, quantity, capabilities, purposes, and authorized uses of each type of military equipment,the fiscal impact of their acquisition and use, the legal and procedural rules that govern their use, the training required by any officer allowed to use them, the mechanisms in place to ensure policy compliance, and the procedures by which the public may register complaints. This ordinance must be renewed by a vote of the governing body each year.
AB 481 also requires any law enforcement agency that receives approval for the use of military equipment to submit annual reports to the governing body regarding the use of the equipment, any complaintsreceived, any internal audits or other information about violations of the military equipment use policy, the cost of such use, and other similar information. Law enforcement incidents can be unpredictable and complex. In order to de-escalate violent and tense situations at times special equipment, tools or resources may be necessary to reduce the possibility of harm to community members, individuals directly involved in the incident and officers and increase the likelihood of a positive outcome. Items identified as “military equipment” include, but are not limited to, unmanned aerial (Drones) or ground vehicles, bulletproof vehicles, pepper balls, less lethal 40mm projectile launchers and distraction devices. These tools have been tested in the field and are used to help enhance citizen safety, officer safety and reduce the need for escalation of force. They are commonly utilized by law enforcement and their use is considered best practices. The Department has not discovered other reasonable alternatives for these tools that can achieve the same objectives of community member safety and officersafety asthese tools can do.
The Department is committed to utilizing equipment that helps to safeguard the community and reduce the risk of escalating volatile situations that might rise to the level of a lethal encounter.
The ordinance and Policy #706 provide for safeguards to the public’s safety, welfare, and civil rights and ensures transparency, oversight and accountability measures are in place. The Department will be required to conduct annual audits of the equipment to ensure compliance with the policy, annually report to City Council the use of this equipment, seek approval prior to purchasing tools deemed to be “military equipment.”
Since adopting this policy, the Paso Robles Police Department has purchased two DJI MAVIC MINI UAS drones (Attachment 1). The Paso Robles Police Department has not retired any approved military equipment over the past year.

Council Agenda Report
From: Paul Patti, Battalion Chief/Fire Marshal
Subject: Approval of the Cost Report for Costs Incurred Abating Public Nuisance Parcels 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: July 18, 2023
Facts
1. On June 20, 2023, the City Council approved Resolution 23-082, confirming weeds or noxious growth on specific properties within the City to be a nuisance.
2. “Notice to Abate” letters were mailed to the property owner address on file with the county assessor on two separate occasions; additional notice was mailed to each occupant of the physical address; and letters returned had the properties staked with a copy of the need to abate.
3. The City entered into a Maintenance Services Agreement with KD Jani to abate unaddressed properties. As of June 21, 2023, 15 of the initial 1,070 properties remained in violation and abatement work commenced.
4. Costs for each abated parcel were tracked and are attached as Exhibit A.
Options
1. Take no action.
2. Confirm the cost report including the associated administrative fees for submission to the County Auditor-Controller.
3. Amend or modify the resolution as submitted.
4. Provide alternative direction to staff.
Analysis and Conclusions
Through its delegated authority, Paso Robles Fire and Emergency Services (PRFES) works to eliminate community fire hazards created by dry vegetation (weeds), consistent with Government Code sections 39561-39588 and Paso Robles Municipal Code Chapter 16.10. This work includes a public information campaign, letters to property owners, and occupants of parcels found in violation, and individual property assessments.
PRFES made reasonable attempts to achieve safety regulation compliance for those properties found in Exhibit A. These fifteen (15) properties nonetheless remained in violation and were abated to abatement ordinance standards, through an approved contractor.
Fiscal Impact
None for this action. Cost associated with the City ordered work will be recouped via direct invoice or through a special assessment lien on the negligent properties, if necessary. The charges for each of the
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
unabated properties covers the full cost of the abatement, including administrative oversight. The administrative costs incurred by the City for properties that did abate after receiving notice, are not recouped.
CEQA
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.
Recommendation
Approve Resolution 23-XXX, confirming the cost report of abated parcels described in Exhibit A including the associated administrative fees and submit to the County Auditor-Controller.

Date: July 18, 2023
Facts
1. On February 16, 2022, the City received a request from ECHO, 1134 Black Oak Drive, for a one-time grant of $444,000 “to cover the staffing costs that are not paid for by other funders for FY 2022-23.”

City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
Analysis and Conclusions
In accordance with the August 16, 2022 MOU between ECHO and the City, ECHO has completed its third quarter of services and has provided the City with the updates, data and financial reports as required in the agreement. This has been provided in the form of presentation slides, a profit and loss statement and submission of a phone log that details activity taking place between March and May 2023.
Using the information provided by ECHO, the statuses of the requirements outlined in item 3 of the MOU are summarized in the following table:

Provide not less than 50 temporary shelter beds
for the homeless population, as well as case
management services and life-skill classes.
ECHO is transitioning into a 90-day program and

ECHO shall give a preference in the occupancy of
the temporary units in the Project to eligible
households who live or work in the City of Paso
Robles, to the extent allowed by law.
Approximately 85% of occupants live or work in
Paso Robles.
ECHO shall seek all relevant grants and funding
opportunities in support of ECHO Paso Robles,
documenting these efforts and all funding
streams in quarterly reports to the City.
Grant information included in financial report.
Attachment 2
ECHO’s financial report provides expenditures and revenue streams for the ECHO Paso Robles location.
Program expenses include direct aid which consists of costs for items that are provided directly to clients such as clothing in preparation for interviews, shoes or sleeping bags. Expenses for client gas and bus tickets are detailed in a separate line item. Revenue streams include funds received through fundraising events, community donations, and grants, specifically; State and Federal Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) and the Permanent and Local Housing Allocation (PLHA).
During this reporting period, ECHO began transitioning the Paso Robles facility to a 90-day shelter program, similar to the service model at the ECHO Atascadero location. In May 2023, ECHO reported that 45 of the 50 shelter beds available at the Paso Robles location were assigned to the 90-day program. In the same month, 168 individuals were reported as not having been able to secure a bed at the facility.
ECHO has indicated they will continue to phase out the nightly emergency shelter program, which will leave Paso Robles and the North County without any nightly emergency options for homeless individuals.
ECHO staff has indicated that the transition away from providing a nightly emergency shelter program is based on participant housing success rates of its 90-day program. The 90-day program provides a guaranteed bed and comprehensive case management services to assist residents in securing a job and finding permanent and sustainable housing within three months of entering the shelter program.
According to ECHO, 50 percent of individuals enrolled in the 90-day program successfully get back into permanent housing compared to 10 percent of those using the nightly shelter model.
When the City Council initially approved the current MOU and funding allocations with ECHO, it was under the assumption that nightly emergency shelter type beds would be readily available at the facility. At the
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
time the MOU was approved, ECHO offered 12 nightly emergency shelter beds. This number has fluctuated since that time based on the needs of clients at the shelter. However, at no time has there not been nightly emergency shelter beds available.
The transition to exclusively a 90-day program considerably changes the shelter options within the North County. This change has the potential to impact how the City’s Community Action Team can engage with and compel homeless individuals to seek nightly shelter services. To further evaluate how the change in service models aligns with the City’s existing MOU with ECHO, staff are recommending the City Council reestablish the Homeless Ad Hoc Committee to discuss this matter. This recommendation is not intended to impact payment for services rendered in the third quarter, however it is proposed to ensure transparency moving forward with the services being rendered that are subject to the MOU.
Fiscal Impact
City Council approved funding for this disbursement on August 16, 2022 contingent upon ECHO meeting the requirements of the revised MOU. There are no additional impacts associated with directing staff to disburse the third quarterly payment.
CEQA
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.
Recommendation (Option 3)
Receive and file ECHO’s third quarter report, direct staff to disburse the third payment in the amount of $55,500 and reconvene the ad hoc committee to reconsider ECHO’s funding request in light of the change in service model.

Success Stories
Before coming to ECHO’s Paso Robles
Campus, Danny had gone through a very
hard time in his life. He had been
hospitalized for a severe lung problem, and
also went through a separation with his
partner. He had been working full time at a
gas station to pay his bills, but due to his
health he could no longer lift heavy object
and complete his duties. Eventually this led
Danny to facing homelessness in our
community. But then, Danny found his way
to ECHO and joined the 90-Day Residential
Emergency Shelter Program. He got right to
work with his ECHO Case Manager applying
for jobs that could help him get on his feet.
At the start of May, Danny interviewed and
was hired as a sales rep for a local solar
company. After just a couple weeks of
successful sales and commissions, Danny was
able to get his driver’s license and purchase a
car! We are so excited for Danny and look
forward to seeing what he does next!

Success Stories
In the summer of 2022, Kim found herself facing homelessness in our community. She had recently left her own home and moved in with family, but things took a turn for the worst. Kim was not able to stay with family for long and soon found herself without a home and searching for resources. In July, Kim started accessing resources at the ECHO Paso Robles Campus and utilizing the Nightly Shelter Bed Program. After watching others facing homelessness get back into housing and building trust with the case management team and staff on site, Kim decided to apply and join ECHO's 90 Day Residential Emergency Shelter Program.
She immediately got to work on her individualized housing plan and started to set goals for herself, and one of those goals was her sobriety. After a month of trying to do it on her own, Kim admitted to her case manager that she had relapsed and needed help. The two got to work on a plan, and collaboratively created a new activity at ECHO, where staff transports any willing residents of our program to Alcoholics and Narcotics Anonymous. Not only did this lead to Kim maintaining and accomplishing her goal, but encouraged other residents to seek services and support from the community. Kim continued to work and connect with community resources, and after many applications and hours of searching, she finally found a place to call a home of her own and she lights up when describing it. Kim made an everlasting impression on all of ECHO and although we will miss her and her contagious positivity, we are so excited for this next chapter of her life.

The budget above shows all expenses and income received for the ECHO, Paso Robles Emergency Shelter during the third quarter of the City of Paso Robles grant award (March ‐ May 2023). During this quarter, ECHO fundraised $249,490.55 for the Paso Robles Shelter though grants, events, and community donations. The total expenses for the ECHO, Paso Robles Shelter was $281,650.72. This leaves us with a current deficit of $32,160.17. Many of ECHO's grants are similar to the City of Paso Robles Grant award in that the funds are awarded as a reimbrusement after expenses occur. Because of these grant processes, ECHO's budget will fluxuate between either having a surplus or deficit of funds throughout the year. Once ECHO is able to submit a full year of financial reporting for the ECHO, Paso Robles Emergncy Shelter it will show a clear picture of how we responsibly manage our funds.

Subject: Request for Support for San Luis Obispo County’s Regional Housing & Infrastructure Plan (HIP) consistent with the 2020 San Luis Obispo Countywide Regional Compact 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. (b)(2)-(3), 15378.
Date: July 18, 2023
Facts
1. Meeting the housing needs of the San Luis Obispo region is a challenge shared by all eight local land use jurisdictions (the seven Cities and County of San Luis Obispo (County)), San Luis Obispo Council of Governments (SLOCOG), organizations that plan, zone, entitle, develop and build housing. This challenge is larger than any one jurisdiction can solve alone and will require the collective actions of all local agencies. With this great challenge also comes an opportunity for regional collaboration. In 2019 the San Luis Obispo County regional jurisdictions recognized the need to work collaboratively to solve the critical shortage of infrastructure resources and housing attainability in the County. And so, in 2019, the County allocated resources to launch a new regional collaborative initiative. Since its inception, the Regional Housing & Infrastructure Plan (HIP) has been part of a phased approach intended to address three major goals:
Goal 1. Foster regional collaboration (action taken in 2020) Goal 2. Align land use planning documents (action taken in 2020) Goal 3. Create the HIP (draft under review via today’s item)
2. The HIP is the next necessary collaborative action between the seven Cities (Arroyo Grande, Atascadero, Grover Beach, Morro Bay, Paso Robles, Pismo Beach and San Luis Obispo), County and SLOCOG along the region’s path to addressing the region’s growing housing and infrastructure needs.
The HIP is intended to help accelerate housing development where it makes the most sense given regional conditions and community readiness. The HIP inventories infrastructure barriers to housing, identifies funding opportunities to implement infrastructure priorities, studies housing affordability in the region, and develops foundational information for the future 2027 Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) and other future regional programs.
3. The seven Cities, County and SLOCOG adopted the San Luis Obispo Countywide Regional Compact in early 2020 (see Attachment 5, Appendix D). The Regional Compact is an aspirational document that sets goals for future recommended plans and actions among the local agencies. It “establishes a united regional framework to unlock the potential to develop an adequate supply of housing and resilient infrastructure that support our economic prosperity.” By adopting the Regional Compact, the seven Cities, County and SLOCOG embraced six shared regional goals listed below and supported aligning resources and policies to make progress towards acting on them. These goals include the following:
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
Goal 1. Strengthen Community Quality of Life – We believe that our Region’s quality of life depends on four cornerstones to foster a stable and healthy economy for all: resilient infrastructure and resources, adequate housing supply, business opportunities, and educational pathways.
Goal 2. Share Regional Prosperity – We believe that our Region should share the impacts and benefits of achieving enduring quality of life among all people, sectors and interests. Goal 3. Create Balanced Communities – We believe that our Region should encourage new development that helps to improve the balance of jobs and housing throughout the Region, providing more opportunities to residents to live and work in the same community. Goal 4. Value Agriculture & Natural Resources – We believe that our Region’s unique agricultural resources, open space, and natural environments play a vital role in sustaining healthy local communities and a healthy economy, and therefore should be purposefully protected.
Goal 5. Support Equitable Opportunities – We believe that our Region should support policies, actions, and incentives that increase housing development of all types, available to people at all income levels.
Goal 6. Foster Accelerated Housing Production – We believe that our Region must achieve efficient planning and production of housing and focus on strategies that produce the greatest impact.
These six regional goals created a path for compatibility among the eight local land use planning agencies’ Housing Elements, built a basis for the HIP, and drove future recommendations for collaborative actions. Signatories to the Regional Compact committed to acting as partners in aligning actions with these regional goals and agreed to develop the first HIP. By taking collaborative actions to further these goals, this region can solve critical issues and become a statewide leader in sustaining vibrant communities.
4. The eight local land use planning agencies (the seven Cities and County) were each required to update their jurisdiction's Housing Elements to reflect how local communities are planning for the State’s 6th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Allocations (2020 - 2028). The Housing Elements were submitted to the Housing and Community Development (HCD) by December 2020. As a step towards the regional goal of aligning land use planning documents, each agency’s Housing Element included a regional chapter that included an initial list of aspirational regional policies that, if implemented, could further the Regional Compact goals (see Attachment 5, Appendix D). The regional chapter also recognized the importance of ongoing collaboration moving forward and pointed to future collaborative efforts to be identified in the HIP. It was the first time all eight land use planning agencies included a regional chapter in the Housing Elements–an important step for aligning land use planning documents.
5. The final goal of the regional collaborative initiative was developing the HIP. Due to emergency response needs, the County put the HIP on hold during the COVID-19 Pandemic. In June 2022, the HIP was revived with the establishment of a Memorandum of Understanding between the County and SLOCOG, under which SLOCOG took over as the project manager of the effort and sub-recipient of the County’s Senate Bill 2 Planning Grant Program funding award for HIP development. With Senate Bill 2 grant funding sunsetting in September 2023, the HIP needed to move at an accelerated pace.
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
6. On May 19, 2023, SLOCOG published the attached Draft HIP, including Appendices A-D and a mapping tool (Attachments 1-7). There are seven major components of the HIP (further described in the Analysis section):
Component 1. Housing Highlights
Component 2. Data and Project Inventory
Component 3. HIP Mapping Tool
Component 4. Housing Efficiency Analysis
Component 5. Infrastructure Prioritization
Component 6. Funding Strategies Assessment
Component 7. Affordable-by-Design Study
7. On June 7, 2023, the SLOCOG Board of Directors directed SLOCOG staff (via the HIP engagement consultant team, REACH and Koble Collaborative, Inc.) to present this item to member jurisdictions for comment and seek general support of regional collaboration moving forward. The seven City Councils and County Board of Supervisors will receive a presentation on the HIP and provided an opportunity to support the HIP between June 27 - August 8, 2023. SLOCOG Board of Directors will consider adoption of the HIP on August 2, 2023.
8. The City of Paso Robles City Council is being asked to consider supporting the creation of the HIP at the July 18, 2023 meeting.
Community Outreach
The City previously adopted the San Luis Obispo Countywide Regional Compact in early 2020. Public input was taken on the matter at the City Council meeting held on March 3, 2019.
With progress of the Regional Housing and Infrastructure Plan (HIP), SLOCOG has contracted with REACH and Koble Collaborative, Inc. to conduct the HIP’s communications and stakeholder engagement. The primary outreach goals were:
Goal 1. Foster ongoing collaboration and buy-in among private and public stakeholders.
Goal 2. Remind government of the Regional Compact, laying the groundwork for HIP effort.
Goal 3. Build public sentiment in support of solutions and regional planning efforts.
The stakeholder groups and meetings were designed to convene diverse perspectives and have honest conversations about what each organization can and needs to do to realize those goals, across sectors and industries. Key stakeholder groups included:

Options
1. Take no action;
2. Consider support for the Regional Housing and Infrastructure Plan, as a recommitment to the 2020 San Luis Obispo Countywide Regional Compact;
3. Provide alternative direction;
4. Refer back to staff for additional analysis.
Analysis and Conclusions
Support for the Regional Housing and Infrastructure Plan (HIP), as a recommitment to the 2020 San Luis Obispo Countywide Regional Compact, is a voluntary act by the City to promote the aspirational vision to help accelerate housing development where it makes the most sense given regional conditions and community readiness. By supporting the HIP, the City will continue to retain local authority on its decisions affecting housing and infrastructure. The HIP is not obligatory. It serves to offer the City a variety of opportunities that could be implemented, such as pursuing funding opportunities, improving processing timelines, prioritizing infrastructure projects, and being more competitive in State and Federal funding programs, among others. The HIP would support the goals and implementation of the Paso Robles Housing Element
The following sections provide a more in-depth snapshot of the seven components of the plan.
HIP Component 1. Housing Highlights
A communication tool designed to unify the region’s focus on the challenges and successes that local agencies, the building and development community and other stakeholders face related to the housing supply needs. This document will serve to reinforce the commitment to the Regional Compact and expand on opportunities each stakeholder has to address housing needs within their area of control and span of influence. The draft Housing Highlight document will be available by June 28, 2023. The final document will be included with the final HIP in July 2023.
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
HIP Component 2. Data and Project Inventory
The HIP analyzes the transportation, water and wastewater infrastructure barriers to housing development. This HIP element included compiling infrastructure and housing data from across individual agencies as briefly described in Table below:
Major HIP Inputs
Housing Data Proposed residential developments of all income categories were collected from Planning and Community Development staff of the seven Cities and the County in 2021. This data includes specific plans, proposed residential and mixed-use projects projected to be built between now and 2045. Residential development that has been completed or is near completion was removed from the HIP analysis.
Transportation
Data
The 2023 Regional Transportation Plan included a list of 350+ transportation investments submitted by Public Works staff of the seven Cities and County and transit providers. Transportation infrastructure was studied using the Transportation Efficiency Analysis (TEA). The TEA identified transportation barriers to housing production and was used in the HIP analysis.
Water/
Wastewater
Data
The HIP inventory is based on responses from 44 water and wastewater agencies, local capital improvement project lists, 2021 Regional Water Infrastructure Resiliency Plan findings, and information from the County’s Water Resources team.
Available, detailed GIS based data was limited. However, to the extent needs are known, key infrastructure projects, estimated costs and timing were included in the HIP analysis.
Additional
Contextual
Data
The HIP analysis provides the data that connects infrastructure and housing on a regional scale for the first-time. When planning for housing, land conditions are carefully considered. To provide a fuller picture, flood risk, sensitive habitat, open space, prime farmland, and fire risk were all included as additional reference information. However, these additional datasets were not used to remove or prioritize infrastructure projects from the HIP list, but simply to provide additional context.
The HIP is a living tool and can adapt as new information becomes available. Future updates to the HIP may incorporate two key datasets:
● Water data update: The County’s Master Water Report update is underway, which may be leveraged to provide updated water capacity information for a future HIP update. ● Economic data: It is anticipated that a future HIP update will incorporate economic data. A concurrent effort, led by REACH, is underway which may be leveraged to provide economic/jobs information for a future HIP update.
HIP Component 3. HIP Mapping Tool
The HIP Mapping Tool was created to display the GIS analysis and foster future collaboration. It is an interactive tool, compiling the complex data and inventoried projects from across the region. The mapping tool makes it easier to visualize connections between infrastructure and housing, see project priorities,
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
and quickly access more information about each community’s priority projects and housing efficient areas, within a regional context. This component is completed and included in the draft HIP.
HIP Component 4. Housing Efficiency Analysis
The Housing Efficiency Analysis looks at three efficiency factors: (1) transportation access, (2) water capacity and (3) wastewater capacity. By analyzing these efficiency factors, housing efficient areas were identified as efficient, potential or limited. Any infrastructure projects located in an area deemed “efficient” or “potential” moved on to the Infrastructure Prioritization element. All projects located in areas deemed “limited” housing efficiency were removed from further analysis. There were 440 infrastructure projects collected as part of the data inventory. Of those, 18% (80 projects) were located within Housing Efficient Areas (i.e. areas deemed “efficient” or “potential”). This component is completed and included in the draft HIP.
HIP Component 5. Infrastructure Prioritization
The premise of the HIP is to help accelerate new housing development, so the current prioritization factors relate solely to the amount of proposed housing that benefits from a community’s infrastructure project.
The 80 infrastructure projects identified through the processes described in HIP Components 2-4 were ranked as high, medium or low priority based on three factors: (1) if the project is needed for new housing, (2) benefit/cost (i.e. investment cost per additional potential housing units served), and (3) whether there are significant barriers to development. The total estimated cost for all 80 HIP projects is over $1 billion, as shown in following Table.
Draft HIP Priority Projects Summary
Estimate
($ Millions) Projects
Estimate for all HIP Projects $ 1,015 80
High $ 348 54
Medium $ 385 10
Low $ 281 16
This component is completed and included in the draft HIP. Details of each community’s infrastructure priorities can be found in the HIP’s Appendix A (Attachment 2). The next Table below includes a summary of infrastructure priority projects summarized by sub-region.
Draft HIP Priority Projects Summary
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
HIP Component 6. Funding Strategies Assessment
SLOCOG contracted with BKF Engineers to conduct a Funding Strategies Assessment. The Funding Strategies Assessment is currently underway and seeks to identify funding sources that can reasonably implement water, wastewater and transportation infrastructure priorities included in the HIP (for all high, medium and low priorities). This component is underway, but not completed yet. The HIP’s Appendix C (Attachment 4) includes preliminary information; however, the draft assessment is expected in July 2023 will include a project-by-project detailed breakdown covering funding requirements, potential funding sources, projected grant funding, and residual funding gap.
Local agencies will be encouraged to review the assessment and pursue funding opportunities for priority infrastructure projects in order to voluntarily contribute to the regional housing effort in a manner that best fits within their agency’s goals.
HIP Component 7. Affordable-by-Design Study
SLOCOG contracted with ECONorthwest to conduct the Affordable-by-Design (ABD) Study. The ABD Study is currently underway and will evaluate housing affordability characteristics for the seven Cities as well as unincorporated areas. The intent is to identify whether housing units in this region can be built to meet low to moderate income RHNA categories (as rentals or for-purchase) without being income- or rentrestricted. Initial findings include:
● Design helps, but does not guarantee affordability.
● Market rate rental housing is close to affordability targets in some areas, but regulatory changes are necessary for most areas of the county.
● Only manufactured housing met target price points for new for-sale housing. ● Factors that make for-sale housing more affordable in other areas may not translate to this region’s current market.
The ABD Study notes that there are generally four factors that come together in the housing market to produce lower-cost housing, including: (1) simple design with lower-cost materials, (2) lower cost locations, (3) efficient production, and (4) smaller units with higher density. Due to the limited findings of housing affordability, the ABD Study includes development of a simple menu of policy options that could help to incentivize ABD units in the region. This component is underway, but not completed. The HIP’s Appendix B (Attachment 3) includes preliminary information; however, the draft study is expected in July 2023.
Recognizing that there is no single solution to the challenge of affordability, the forthcoming menu of policy options will be provided for each local agency to consider. Local agencies will be encouraged to adopt what fits their community’s needs in order to voluntarily contribute to the regional housing effort in a manner that best fits within their agency’s goals.
Next Steps
It is worth emphasizing that the recommended action recognizes that there is no “one size fits all” when it comes to this region’s planning and that while local agencies plan for housing, they do not build or develop housing. Therefore, nothing in the HIP mandates action by any of the Cities or the County, it simply offers voluntary opportunities for action that could accelerate the development of needed housing in the region. Implementation relies on each agency’s voluntary actions moving forward, such as:
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
● Agency(ies) may consider pursuing funding opportunities identified for a priority infrastructure project to cover funding gaps.
● Agency(ies) may consider implementation of affordable-by-design policies appropriate to each unique community and its needs.
● Agency may consider programmatic changes to improve approval process timelines such as directing staff to identify ways to improve response time for housing project approval or coordinating with other agencies to align and streamline processes. ● Agency may consider updating its analysis approach to prioritizing the community’s needed infrastructure projects in order to most impactfully increase housing supply. ● Agency may consider using the HIP to help justify the benefit of a community’s priority infrastructure project towards increasing the region’s future housing supply, making it more competitive in a number of State and Federal funding programs. ● SLOCOG and agencies may consider using the HIP as a foundation for negotiating where the region’s housing needs are best met (e.g future RHNA cycle allocations).
Today’s action signifies another milestone on this path to regional collaboration and fulfilling the Regional Compact adopted by the City of Paso Robles City Council on March 3, 2020. In addition, support of the HIP is consistent with the City’s Housing Element which set to implement the Compact’s initial list of aspirational regional policies to further accelerate housing production.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact from this action.
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.
Recommendation
(Option 2)
Provide support and receive and file the Regional Housing and Infrastructure Plan, consistent with the 2020 San Luis Obispo Countywide Regional Compact.

HIP SUMMARY
The Regional Housing & Infrastructure Plan (HIP) is a collaborative action plan between nine local jurisdictions in response to the San Luis Obispo region’s growing housing and infrastructure shortage. The HIP is intended to help accelerate housing development where it makes the most sense given regional conditions and readiness. The HIP inventories infrastructure barriers to housing, identifies funding to implement infrastructure needs, and develops foundational information for the future 2027 Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA).
In 2018, the County of San Luis Obispo recognized the need to work regionally in solving the critical shortage of infrastructure resources and housing attainability in San Luis Obispo County. This challenge is larger than any one jurisdiction can solve alone. In January 2019 the County Board of Supervisors approved the kick off of this effort. Since inception, the HIP has always been a phased approach with the goals of regional collaboration, strategic action planning, and aligning land use planning documents.
The Regional Compact (April 2020)
The County, seven Cities, and San Luis Obispo Council of Governments (SLOCOG) approved the first major milestone of the HIP - the San Luis Obispo Countywide Regional Compact. The Regional Compact is an aspirational document that sets the tone and goals for future recommended plans and actions among the local agencies. It establishes a united regional framework to unlock the potential to develop an adequate supply of housing and resilient infrastructure that support our economic prosperity. It recognizes that people, water, transportation, connectivity, and housing form the foundation of the San Luis Obispo region’s healthy, livable communities and thriving economic opportunity.
Housing Element Alignment (June 2020)
The County and the seven Cities were each required to update their jurisdiction's Housing Elements to reflect how local communities are planning for the State’s 6 th Cycle Regional
Housing Needs Allocations through 2028. The Housing Elements were submitted to the Housing and Community Development (HCD) in December 2020. As part of the Housing Element update process, the regional approach section was developed to showcase the ongoing commitment of each agency to the HIP collaboration. This section presents a regional vision and policies focused specifically on fostering regional collaboration to plan and develop housing and supportive infrastructure. It was the first time all seven jurisdictions included a regional approach chapter in their required housing elements.
Regional Housing and Infrastructure Plan (2022-2023)
Put on hold during the Pandemic, the HIP was revived in June 2022 with the establishment of a Memorandum of Understanding between the County of San Luis Obispo and SLOCOG.
SLOCOG became the project manager of the effort. With Senate Bill 2 funding sunsetting in September 2023, the HIP began moving at an accelerated pace. There are seven elements of Attachment 1
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023

the HIP and they are listed in Figure 1: HIP Elements. These elements intertwine and build upon one another.

There were 430 infrastructure projects collected as part of the data inventory. Of those, 18% (78 projects) were located within Housing Efficient Areas. The 78 projects were ranked using a three-tiered prioritization process based on potential new housing units served. The estimated cost for all 78 HIP projects is a little under one billion dollars. About one third of the projects are water related with the remaining being transportation improvements. The estimates for each prioritized category are relatively similar around $300 million.

The HIP is the first of its kind, and it is intended to be a living document. For the last five years, collaboration has continued to build, and these incremental steps have allowed the region to make progress in addressing the monumental challenges of the housing and infrastructure shortage. Next steps to follow stakeholder guidance during Summer 2023 Outreach.

Housing
Proposed residential developments within the seven cities and unincorporated county were collected from planning staff in 2021. This data includes specific plans, proposed residential and mixed-use projects projected for to be built between now and 2045. Residential development that has been completed or near completion was removed from the HIP analysis.
Water & Wastewater
In early January 2023, SLOCOG staff contacted the 44 water and wastewater agencies found in the 2021 Regional Water Infrastructure Resiliency Plan. Five initial questions were asked to the agencies:
1. Is your agency fulfilling its water/wastewater service demand?
2. Do you have capacity to serve additional housing units?
3. Is your agency experiencing any infrastructure limitations or does it have any infrastructure needs?
4. Have they been planned for?
5. Is there a cost estimate for these improvements?
The data collected includes the findings of the 2021 Regional Water Infrastructure Resiliency Plan, agency responses, local capital improvement project lists, and information from the County of San Luis Obispo’s Water Team. Water and wastewater service districts were used as water boundaries. Detailed GIS based data from these agencies is limited and water capacity data will be informed by the County’s Master Water Report Update. However, infrastructure projects, estimated costs, and timing were all collected. In 2023, forty-five water and wastewater projects were collected from the agencies.
Transportation
Transportation infrastructure was studied in the Transportation Efficiency Analysis (TEA) which the SLOCOG Board approved in April 2022. The TEA identified transportation barriers to housing production which resulted in a list of transportation projects that were prioritized as either land use necessitated or land use beneficial. Land use necessitated projects were transportation projects required for new housing development. These projects are considered TEA priority projects because they are needed to accelerate housing development. Land use beneficial projects are transportation projects that are not required for housing development but improve the transportation efficiency of an area. Of the 350+ transportation investments contained within in the 2023 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), 64 transportation investments were identified as TEA projects. The San Luis Obispo Regional Transit Authority (RTA) provided details on transit projects and additional improvements needed to best serve additional housing development. The transportation infrastructure list was further refined in the HIP analysis and prioritized differently.

Bonus Layers
The HIP analysis provides the data that connects infrastructure and housing on a regional scale for the first-time. The 2023 effort is also the first phase of the analysis. When planning for housing, land conditions carefully considered. To provide a fuller picture, flood risk, sensitive habitat, open space, prime farmland, and fire risk were all included as additional reference information. These were not used to remove infrastructure projects from the HIP list but are there to provide additional context.
HOUSING EFFICIENCY ANALYSIS
The HIP Infrastructure Analysis looks at three efficiency factors: transportation access, water capacity, and wastewater capacity. By combining the three efficiency factors, housing efficient areas were identified. This is graphically represented in Figure 4: HIP Mapping Process. Any infrastructure projects located in the “efficient” or “potential” mapped areas moved on to the prioritization phase. All areas and projects that were considered “limited” were removed from further analysis. The Communities of Shandon, Avila Beach, and Cambria were removed from HIP analysis since they did not meet the efficiency criteria.
Figure 4: HIP Mapping Process
There were 430 infrastructure projects collected as part of the data inventory. Of those, 18% (78 projects) were located within a Housing Efficient Area. The 78 projects moved on to the prioritization phase. The flow of the analysis can be seen in Figure 5: HIP Analysis Process
INFRASTRUCTURE PRIORITIZATION
After stakeholder outreach in February and March 2023, a three-tiered approach was selected to prioritize projects. Projects were labeled as high, medium, or low depending on three factors: if the project supports new housing, the benefit/cost (project cost per total potential Attachment 1
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023

housing units within community), and barriers to development. Barriers to development include instances such as a building moratorium. These barriers are outside the controls of the HIP and slow housing development. The entire analysis and prioritization process can be seen in Figure 5.

Infrastructure projects were divided into two lists, water and transportation, and then prioritized. It was concluded that transportation projects, in general, could be built at various stages of housing development. Whereas, housing cannot be built without adequate water distribution and collection infrastructure. Each list was sorted by highest benefit/cost. The total funding need for the list was divided by three to categorize projects as high, medium, or low.
The premise of the HIP is to help accelerate housing development, so the current prioritization factors relate solely to the total amount of proposed housing. In the future, other factors like jobs-housing balance factors and proposed housing unit type could be considered.
Findings
The draft HIP list contains 78 infrastructure projects with an estimated cost of nearly one billion dollars in need. As seen in Figure 6: Draft HIP List Summary, about one third of the needed infrastructure investments are water-related (supply & wastewater) and two-thirds are transportation-related. Interestingly, each priority category (high, medium, low) are relatively similar at around $300 million. However, the cost of nine medium ranked projects is equivalent to 53 high priority projects.
Figure 6: Draft HIP List Summary
Figure 7: Priority Projects by Community breaks down the total number of HIP priority projects, the total investment needed for each proposed housing unit, and the total estimate investment needed by community. Within the 78 total projects, three are listed as multijurisdictional projects including Central Coast Blue, the Regional Transit Authority Cashless Fare System Conversion, and the North County Transit Charging Facility. In Figure 7, these are listed as a separate row and are not included individually in the "HIP Projects" column for each community. However, multijurisdictional project costs are included in the community's total investment needed. The number of multijurisdictional projects by priority can be seen in Figure 8.

Ninety-nine percent of the region’s population lives in four out of five subregions: North County, Central County, North Coast, and South County. Both North and Central County have 29 HIP projects. Even though projects in these two regions make up the majority of the HIP list, North County and Central County combined make up 81% of the proposed new housing units in the region.

Future Data Considerations
Creating balanced communities is one of the six 2020 Regional Housing Compact goals. The 2023 Sustainable Communities Strategy defines a jobs-housing balanced community as A community where residents can both live and work. With jobs and housing in close proximity, vehicle trips and commute times reduce and active transportation and transit use increase. These balanced communities also provide a broad mix of housing options to accommodate households with a range of incomes.
As a proactive measure, the jobs-housing balance of communities was analyzed using live/work percentages. A live/work percentage is the total number of employees living and working in the city or community boundaries divided by the total workers living in that boundary. In future iterations of the HIP, jobs-housing balance could be integrated through the live/work percentage and additional job cluster data as mentioned in Figure 5: HIP Analysis Process. The data displayed in
Figure 10 and Figure 11 was not used to prioritize projects in the 2023 HIP. The information is for reference purposes only. This information is included since it relates to goals found in the 2020 Regional Housing Compact, HIP stakeholder interest, and or relates to the 2023 Affordable-by-Design Study. The 2023 Affordable-By-Design Study has shown that units within the multi-family category are more aligned units in the low- and moderately-priced income Attachment 1

HIP MAPPING TOOL
The HIP Mapping Tool was created to display GIS analysis and foster future collaboration. The tool was created using ArcGIS Experience Builder, ArcGIS Online, and ArcGIS Storymaps. Users have the ability to pan around the map in the "Explore" tab and turn map layers on and off.
The "Project List" tab allows the user to browse through HIP projects categorized by transportation or water projects and is color coded by priority category. When a project is selected on the list, the map will zoom to the project. The user may also click on projects from the map to view a pop-up showing the name, description, and estimated cost. The "Story" tab of the tool gives a summary of the HIP and provides the four-step process of how the analysis was carried out in GIS. Individual layers are shown along with project tables.

AFFORDABLE-BY-DESIGN STUDY
The Affordable-by-Design (ABD) Study evaluates housing affordability characteristics for the seven incorporated Cities and unincorporated San Luis Obispo County. The intention of the ABD study is to show certain units (built without financial assistance or deed restrictions) as either low- or moderate-income units in annual Housing and Community Development RHNA reports. For purposes of the ABD Study, “affordable by design” (ABD) is defined as new housing that is not income- or rent-restricted, but where typical market rents or sales prices would be affordable to low or moderate-income households (earning 50-120% of Area Median Income).
The San Luis Obispo County’s published rent and sale price limits by income level define the rent and price range affordable at this income level as seen in Figure 12.
Figure 12: San Luis Obispo County’s Rent and Sale Price Limits (May 2022) Attachment 1
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
16 | H I P
The ABD Study includes the following approach:
1. Identify common physical characteristics for ABD housing
2. Interviews with local housing developers
3. Consider whether ABD housing examples from other regions could meet ABD criteria in SLO County’s market
4. Financial feasibility analysis of illustrative “prototypical” development examples
5. Identify regulatory barriers to development to ABD housing
6. Highlight potential policy measures to support ABD housing EcoNorthwest used development “prototypes” to highlight characteristics of housing that could potentially meet the Study’s ABD definition. These are prototypical developments informed by (or extrapolated from) actual development. Each development prototype is a specific combination of key characteristics, such as number of units and configuration (e.g., detached, attached side-byside, stacked), Lot size / density, height, unit size and parking. In May 2023, preliminary findings were presented to five stakeholder groups. The following information provides a brief summary and more preliminary information can be viewed in Appendix B: Affordable-by-Design Study Preliminary Information. The final report will be completed in July for SLOCOG Board consideration in August.
Rental Preliminary Findings
On the rental side of new development (within the last 5 years), some new apartments are affordable at a moderate-income level. This may include some mixed-income buildings but 1- bedroom units are most likely to be affordable whereas no 3-bedroom units are categorized as affordable. Design helps but does not guarantee affordability. Most of the buildings that fit within the ABD definition are 3-story, they have a smaller average unit sizes, but not all small units are affordable to moderate-income households.
EcoNorthwest looked at examples from other housing markets within California, Washington, and Oregon to add a few possibilities to a financial feasibility analysis. These protypes included:
A. 3-story walk-up apartments—standard
• Larger units (~880 sf average)
• Typical density, parking ratio, and landscaping
B. 3-story walk-up apartments—compact
• Smaller units (~620 sf average)
• Higher density, lower parking ratio, less landscaping C. 4-story micro-unit apartments
• Very small units (~300 sf, shared kitchens, individual kitchenettes) • Very high density, no parking, no landscaping

This ratio is often used as an initial indicator of development feasibility for rental developments, as it provides a preliminary indication of whether the completed property will provide competitive financial returns that could attract investors and meet loan underwriting requirements.

For-Sale Preliminary Findings
In the last five years, only manufactured housing in manufactured home parks met target price points for new for-sale housing using County calculations. This does not factor in the lot cost associated with manufactured home parks. There are few small detached homes that came close and could potentially meet the City of San Luis Obispo’s affordability standards since they calculate income limits differently. Looking at examples from other housing markets:
A. Small detached units
• ~350-800 square feet units
• Shared yards with clustered parking
• Smallest units may be affordable at close to 120% of AMI in that market • Affordability: Comparable Units in SLO region exceed target price B. Small condo units
• ~325-600 square feet units
• Little or no on-site parking
• Can be affordable to Moderate Income households in portions of some highcost regions • Feasibility: May not be viable in SLO region’s market C. Simple condo development
• ~600-1000 square feet units
• Little or no on-site parking with few shared amenities • Can be affordable to Moderate Income households in portions of some highcost regions. • Feasibility: May not be viable in SLO region’s market D. Smaller townhouse units
• ~1,000-1,600 square feet units
• Can be affordable to Moderate Income households in portions of some highcost regions • Affordability: Comparable units in SLO region exceed target price E. Smaller single-detached homes
• 3BR, ~1200-1500 square feet units
• Can be affordable to moderate-income households in moderate-cost areas (e.g., Central Valley)
• Affordability: Comparable units in SLO region exceed target price San Luis Obispo’s regional market conditions do not support new for-sale housing at prices affordable to moderate-income households, with the possible exception of manufactured homes in housing parks. A few developments have attempted to produce ABD for-sale housing, but even with very small homes, prices are still too high for the moderate-income target price range. Factors that make for-sale housing more affordable in other areas may not translate to the SLO County market (lower land cost, no parking, few amenities, micro units).

Market Conditions
In summary, the rental market is close and regulatory change could help with smaller units in cost-effective developments. The market is not close in the for-sale side and a longer-term approach is needed. Increasing the housing production overall can help bring supply and demand into balance and make ABD achievable over the longer term. These preliminary findings are not surprising but sobering. Looking at a wide-angle view, ECONorthwest looked at what conditions make for lower-cost housing.
Figure 15: Market Conditions for Lower-Cost Housing
As seen in Figure 15: Market Conditions for Lower-Cost Housing, there are four factors that have to come together in the housing market to product lower-cost housing including simple design with lower-cost materials, lower cost locations, efficient production, and smaller units with a higher density.
A primary deliverable for the ABD Study is to create a menu of policy change options that will incentivize ABD units in the region. Figure 16 depicts how the public sector impacts the conditions for ABD. ECONorthwest interviewed six developers that work within the San Luis Obispo Region. Those interviews provided four market barrier themes to ABD Development including land cost, demand for high-end housing, construction costs, and demand for parking.
They also identified six regulatory barrier themes to ABD development including: discretionary review, density caps, minimum unit sizes, parking requirements that exceed market demand, impact fees and inclusionary zoning, and required infrastructure improvements. More of these details will be made available in July.

Figure 16: Public Sector and ABD Market Conditions
In coordination with HIP stakeholders, ECONorthwest identified potential policies and incentives that local governments in the region could implement to support ABD housing development. In the next few months, the consultant will identify relevant case studies from jurisdictions that have implemented programs or policies similar to the relevant incentives, and, where possible, the impact they have had on housing production for ABD housing.
FUNDING STRATEGIES ASSESSMENT
The Funding Strategies Assessment seeks to identify funding and financing sources that can reasonably implement the water, wastewater, and transportation infrastructure needs of the HIP. BKF Engineering has drafted a grant inventory that connects each specific HIP project to various public sources of funding. They also include a grant glossary with factors such as eligibility requirements, deadlines, funding amounts available. These draft pieces can be reviewed in Appendix C: Funding Strategies Assessment Preliminary Information.
A Gap Analysis is currently being conducted which aims to determine the difference between the required funding for the projects and the potential funding that can be secured through grants and other funding sources. The Gap Analysis approach includes:
Attachment 1
City Council Agenda July 18, 2023
21 | H I P
1. Assessing the Projects & Determining Funding Requirements:
2. Identifying Potential Funding Sources
3. Estimating Potential Grant Funding
4. Calculating the Funding Gap
5. Proposing Strategies to Bridge the Funding Gap
The Funding Strategies Assessment will include a detailed breakdown on a project-by-project basis, covering funding requirements, corresponding funding sources, projected grant funding, and the residual funding gap, including shortfalls and match requirements. An actionable timeline and a roadmap, along with recommendations for implementing the proposed strategies aimed to maximize the probability of securing the requisite funds for HIP projects.
The complete Funding Strategies Assessment will be available in July/August.
HOUSING HIGHLIGHTS
Stakeholder Engagement Strategy
The HIP engagement strategy established four outreach objectives:
• Foster ongoing collaboration and buy-in among private and public stakeholders. • Remind government/elected officials of the Regional Compact and the motives behind it to lay groundwork for their commitment to the 2023 regional HIP. • Build public sentiment in support of solutions and regional planning efforts related to HIP.
• Support effective coordination with and communication among SLOCOG, HIP consultants and the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) teams.
The San Luis Obispo region has strategic goals for the future of housing and infrastructure, but they can only be achieved through the decisions and actions of organizations and stakeholders.
The stakeholder meetings are designed to have honest conversations about what each organization can and needs to do to realize those goals. The December 2022 Regional Managers Retreat guided the stakeholder engagement process which is depicted in Figure 17: HIP Stakeholder Process.

Figure 17: HIP Stakeholder Process
The following list are the key stakeholder groups engaged – totaling approximately 100 individuals that participated during the HIP development process in January - June 2023:
Regional Managers/ Key Staff: A key driving force behind developing this plan has been regional leadership, including eight City Managers, County Administrative Officer, SLOCOG Executive Director (and key directors from their organizations).
Elected Officials: Two City Council Members with knowledge of regional differences bring the various perspectives and concerns voiced by their respective constituents for this Steering Committee. The full 40 elected officials within the region will have an opportunity to hear about the plan through public updates to SLOCOG Board as well as through presentations of the recommended HIP to their Councils and Boards in Summer 2023.
Building & Development Cluster: Leaders in the building and development industry that convene quarterly with the goal of regional coordination focused on aligning housing and infrastructure needs to create a strong local economy.
Housing Advocacy Group: Organizations and individuals that have significant influence in the community, with representation from the non-profit builders, local chambers of commerce and various advocate organizations.
Housing Action Team: Existing work group made up of planning/ community development staff from Cities, County, and SLOCOG.
Community Stakeholders: The broader community will be engaged in partnership with the SLO Chamber of Commerce Housing Summit in Spring 2023. Feedback from this event will be brought to the HIP Steering Committee to discuss and adjust the communications plan accordingly.

HIP Steering Committee: Formed to oversee the vision for the HIP Outreach Strategy and to bring leaders in each of these areas together, aligning and integrating the various interests that will lead to action on the region’s priorities.
A HIP Steering Committee was selected to represent broader interests and to allow for crosssector collaboration and cohesion. It is a small group of representatives with a balance of public and private backgrounds and a variety of expertise in issues related to development around the region. The HIP Steering Committee guided the development of a balanced plan, and helped to identify paths for the plan’s successful adoption and implementation. The HIP Steering Committee includes Matthew Bronson (Grover Beach), Mayor Heather Moreno (Atascadero), Councilmember Andy Pease (SLO City), Trevor Keith (County of SLO), Aaryn Abbott (Abbott | Reed), Lenny Grant (RRM), Jeff Eckles (SLOCHTF), Courtney Howard (SLO Flood Control & Water Conservation District), Anthony Palazzo (Cal Poly), and Jorge Aguilar (Wallace Group).
