The City Council returned to Item 8. Presentations, B1.
1. ARCHES2
Public Works Director Sanjay Mishra introduced Scott Brandt, Associate Vice President of Research and Innovation at the University of California Office of the President and Chief Operating Officer (COO) with the Alliance for Renewable Clean Hydrogen Energy Systems (ARCHES) and advised after the presentation staff would return to the City Council with a resolution supporting ARCHES at a future City Council meeting.
Mr. Brandt provided a PowerPoint presentation on the Alliance for Renewable Clean Hydrogen Energy Systems (ARCHES), a public-private partnership to create a sustainable statewide renewable clean hydrogen (H?) market and ecosystem in California and beyond utilizing renewable resources to produce hydrogen, with the objective to fully decarbonize the regional economy and to prioritize environmental justice, equity, economic leadership, workforce development and hydrogen market viability.
Pinole City Council Regular Meeting
Minutes - March 5, 2024
Mr. Brandt highlighted where ARCHES was in the process, described its projects, hydrogen flow, the systems approach to initiate large future hydrogen growth in the State of California and how ARCHES benefitted communities in California.
In response to Council member Martinez-Rubin, Mr. Brandt clarified that hydrogen was a gas but when compressed could be stored as a liquid. Whether gas or liquid, ARCHES goal was to avoid storage and ARCHES had built its ecosystem so there was little storage in the initial eight to ten years, with all production and offtake and usage all synchronized and with most storage in transportation from the production to usage sites. There was some buffering capacity in the transportation such as when being trucked or if stored in a pipeline from one place to another.
Initial phases would involve little storage. Hydrogen was like other gases, was flammable, there were some safety issues, it could not be transported in pipes used for other gases, and transportation of pure hydrogen required dedicated pipes, which would be designed specifically for hydrogen. It was possible to transport hydrogen blended with natural gas in small quantities, but all ARCHES projects would involve new pipes specifically designed for hydrogen.
Mr. Brandt explained that there were organizations looking at hydrogen standards for the general public, there were already hydrogen fueling stations around the State with standards in place, but more aggressive and broader standard efforts had been put into ARCHES proposal with the Department of Energy (DOE).
Council member Martinez-Rubin understood the basic principles for ARCHES but she did not want to repeat history where there had been federal monies invested in some economically disadvantaged communities in the near term that had yielded negative unintended consequences.
Mr. Brandt explained that ARCHES was a non-profit organization, would remain a non-profit, with community representation on its board and a robust structure to ensure communities were well represented throughout the process. ARCHES had released its Community Benefits Plan and was the first hydrogen hub to do so. ARCHES had set the bar high to ensure that others had to follow suit. He reported the DOE and others had informed ARCHES it had reviewed its Community Benefits Plan and described it as the best ever seen.
Mayor Toms spoke to the map of disadvantaged communities and hub sites and clarified with Mr.
Brandt the hub sites were not final. Until projects had been finalized with the DOE and negotiations had been completed, ARCHES could not disclose the actual hub sites. Additional review would be required as part of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The sites would be made public with an extensive public reviev and comment process with ARCHES fully committed to that process once reaching that level o detail.
Mayor Toms reported that she and another member of the City Council served on the WestCAT Board of Directors, which Board had approved a plan to phase over to zero emission vehicles for its buses through the use of hydrogen vehicles, and she was interested in knowing where the buses may refuel. She asked of the ultimate distribution for hydrogen fuel for the general public and whether existing gas stations could be retrofitted to be distribution facilities for hydrogen.
Mr. Brandt explained that ARCHES was working with 24 transit agencies to consider hydrogen buses and fueling stations, some of which would set up public fueling access.
Pinole City Council Regular Meeting
Minutes - March 5, 2024
As to existing fueling stations, Mr. Brandt stated the technology for hydrogen was different than gasoline, where hydrogen was required to be stored under pressure and kept cool. The pumps for existing gas stations were different, but otherwise many of the hydrogen fueling stations were on the same ground as the existing fueling stations and they could often be co-located. He suggested they could be on the same property as existing gas stations, where possible.
PUBLIC COMMENTS OPENED
Kellie Taylor, Pinole, asked whether ARCHES would be able to create a visual presentation to highlight how the process worked, whether there was information on the confidential private entities and whether ARCHES could provide an example of a current hydrogen facility and who had developed it.
Mr. Brandt described the Toyota brand Mirai vehicle that was powered by a hydrogen fuel cell. In addition, he noted the University of California Irvine had a hydrogen fueling station in operation and there were others around the State. He reiterated that negotiations were ongoing, and information on private entities would remain confidential at this time. Once ARCHES had finalized terms with the DOE that information could be disclosed.
Public Works Director Mishra reported that Contra Costa County had a hydrogen fueling station located in the City of San Ramon and Toyota had a model vehicle that was powered by hydrogen.
There was also a hydrogen hub facility located in the City of Richmond and all of this was public information, with more information on that facility on the City of Richmond website.
Ms. Taylor asked about the affordability quotient given the discussion about renewable energy, and whether hydrogen impacted fish and wildlife. She sought more information on how the public could participate in the process, whether any air quality research had been done and asked whether she could see the research reports.
Mr. Brandt explained that they were not at the point yet to address maritime impacts but hydrogen in general would not impact sea life since it was stored as a liquid, and if there were leaks it turned into a gas and would go up not down.
Mayor Toms advised that such topics would be addressed once the project had reached the environmental review phase, which would include CEQA review.
Mr. Brandt encouraged interested parties to view the website for ARCHES at arches2.org for more information. He also clarified that working group meetings were held via Zoom and not in person and the public was welcome to participate. He added that the reports requested could be made available to the public.
Anthony Vossbrink, Pinole, asked whether the City had any plans to increase the number of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations throughout the City. He commented on the inability of local residents to take advantage of existing EV charging stations. More EV charging stations were needed and there should be guidelines and signage in place with restrictions for usage since some of the existing EV charging stations at City Hall were being monopolized by others.
PUBLIC COMMENTS CLOSED
Pinole City Council Regular Meeting
Minutes - March 5, 2024
The City Council thanked Mr. Brandt for the presentation and looked forward to the next phase.
Public Works Director Mishra clarified the EV charging stations at City Hall had been open for public use for the past six to eight months. Staff had been tracking the usage and would be presenting an ordinance to the City Council in the near future to recoup the electric charges from customers. Currently the use of the existing EV charging stations was free. Staff also planned to limit the time period for charging and there would be fees for stalled charges to prevent a monopoly of the EV charging stations.
Mayor Toms declared a recess at 7:52 p.m. to allow the City Clerk to close the election box for ballots. The City Council meeting reconvened at 8:10 p.m. with all Council members present with the exception of Council members Murphy and Tave.

Council member Martinez-Rubin again clarified with Finance Director Guillory the proposed budget adjustments, as shown, and clarified the figures shown in parenthesis in the PowerPoint presentation were decreases since the City did not anticipate receiving those revenues.
Mayor Toms clarified with Finance Director Guillory the summary information for the budget the General Fund outside of the budgeted items,
Staff still projected about $3.3 million in unassigned funds. Funds shown in the negative, such as the Recreation and Cable Access TV Funds, would require an additional operating subsidy from the General Fund to ensure they were not at a negative at the end of the fiscal year.
PUBLIC COMMENTS OPENED
Kellie Taylor, Pinole, asked for a breakdown for the Stormwater Fund; whether the City had specific projects listed and where work had been done taking money out of the budget in different areas; whether the City of Pinole paid for cable television and whether the City paid to televise public meetings and broadcasting.
Pinole City Council Regular Meeting
Minutes - March 5, 2024
Finance Director Guillory explained the local cable access channel provided the televising of City Council meetings, as an example, and stated the City's budget was a good resource and had broken down the budget and funds for items such as the Stormwater Fund, which information was available on the City website under the Finance webpage.
Mayor Toms clarified that Pinole had two cable television stations producing content for cable.
Anthony Vossbrink, Pinole, sought clarification of the budget figures that appeared to be skewered and should be analyzed to stop the bleeding, such as the increase in expenditures that were greater than expected with respect to personnel and whether that was related to new hires, separation agreements and new contracts such as the City Manager or other positions and whether those costs would be offset by employees who may have resigned. He understood the former City Manager had been paid $150,000 to leave his position, which had been questioned by some members of the public. He asked what type of separation agreement had been provided to the former City Manager given his understanding he had resigned his position. questioned the lower sales tax figures from retail, gasoline sales and construction build-out and asked what had caused those declines since he did not believe it was due to the pandemic.
Finance Director Guillory clarified the budget process and the 50 percent mark for actual from July through December 2023, where the City would have expected to spend about 48 percent of the budget and where the City was under the threshold for the mid-point for the Fiscal Year.
