An internal audit (Attachment 2) was completed for calendar year 2024 documenting the use of the equipment, the annual costs for the equipment, and the quantity possessed.
Staff does not intend to purchase any additional military equipment this year.

Meeting Date: March 4, 2025
TITLE:
El Portal Drive and Shell Beach Road Red Curb
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution authorizing the installation of red curb on El Portal Drive at Shell Beach Road.
DISCUSSION:
At the December 12, 2024 Traffic Safety Committee (TSC) meeting, the committee reviewed a request from the Police Department to install red curb on both sides of the intersection of El Portal Drive and Shell Beach Road. Due to the proximity of the nearby Ontario Ridge trail, El Portal Drive is frequently used for cars to park for trail access. The TSC reviewed the request and due to sight distance issues created by parked cars at the intersection, the committee's recommendation was that the Public Works Department bring a recommendation to the City Council to install red curb at this location. The City Engineer has reviewed the location and is recommending 40 feet of red curb be installed on the north side and 42 feet of red curb be installed on the south side of the intersection starting at the tangent of the curb return on Shell Beach Road and El Portal Drive, as shown in Attachment 1.A. If approved, the Public Works Department will install the red curb as described.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a Resolution (Attachment 1) authorizing the painting of red curb on El Portal Drive at Shell Beach Road as shown in Attachment 1.A.

A�syoBt Agenda Item #9.E
Meeting Date: March 4, 2025
TITLE:
Update on Massage Establishment and Massage Therapist Permit Fees RECOMMENDATION:
No action recommended; for information only.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Pismo Beach charges user fees on individuals or groups for the use of City facilities, resources, or services. As part of the City's cost recovery strategy, user fees help fund programs and services that provide a private benefit rather than a direct, citywide benefit. Without appropriate cost recovery, general tax revenues would subsidize private benefits, limiting funds available for essential community-wide services such as public safety and community programs.
The general standard is that individuals or groups who receive a private benefit from a service should pay 100% of cost. However, the City may choose to subsidize certain fees for policy reasons, such as encouraging participation in public programs, ensuring compliance when cost is prohibitive, and promoting access to essential services.
City Council Direction to Reduce Massage Permit Fees to $50 On February 24, 2025, the City Council held a City User Fee Study Session to review the proposed 2025 User Fee Schedule, which has been updated based on input from City staff and through a User Fee Study. Based on public testimony from massage establishments and massage therapists indicating the potential economic hardship posed by the massage therapist licensing fees, the City Council provided direction to staff and the City's consultant regarding reducing both the massage establishment biennial permit fee, which is currently $641 every 2 years, and the massage therapist permit fee, which is currently $607 per permit. These fees help cover the cost for the Police Department and its officers to investigate and review the business and therapist to ensure safe practices according to state and city laws.
The Council directed staff to modify those fees to be $50 for the massage establishment biennial permit fee every two years, and $50 for the massage therapist permit fee.
Because of this significant change, staff will move forward effective immediately to administratively reduce the fee to $50 for each fee. Staff will return to the Council at the March 18, 2025 meeting for final review and adoption of the entire fee schedule. The comprehensive fee schedule is proposed to be effective on July 1, 2025, except the massage licensing fees that would be effective March 18, 2025, per Council approval.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact of reducing the massage establishment biennial permit fee every two years and the massage therapist permit fee is providing a $557 to $591, respectively, General Fund subsidy for police services to investigate and review the safe practices Council Agenda 3-4-2025 9.E-1
Packet Page 40
according to state and city laws. This General Fund subsidy is roughly equal to $14,000 per year.

A�syo Bt Agenda Item #12.13
Meeting Date: March 4, 2025
TITLE:
Introduction (First Reading) of Animal Control Regulations Ordinance; Introduction (First Reading) of 2025 Omnibus Municipal Code Cleanup Ordinance RECOMMENDATION:
1. Introduce an Ordinance adopting by reference Title 9: Animals of the San Luis Obispo County Code, and reserving certain local animal control regulations as set forth in Title 6: Animals of the City of Pismo Beach Municipal Code; and
2. Introduce an Ordinance implementing changes to various provisions of the Pismo Beach Municipal Code, including Chapters 1.24, 2.04, 3.06, 3.08, 5.16, 5.22, 5.24,
5.28. 12.16, 12.32, and 12.36.
DISCUSSION:
Animal Control Regulations Ordinance
The City contracts with the County of San Luis Obispo for the provision of animal control services within the city. In addition, the City has adopted and enforces select local animal control regulations, including dog leash requirements and permits for goatkeeping. Prior to this arrangement with the County, the City had enacted its own animal control regulations, and those regulations were left on the books after the service contract was effectuated. In the interest of eliminating regulatory conflicts and better-allowing the County to provide services, staff recommends that the City adopt the County's animal control regulations by reference and remove the defunct local provisions from the City code.
Summary of Proposed Animal Control Ordinance
The ordinance provided as Attachment 1 includes the following components:
1. Adoption of County animal control regulations (San Luis Obispo County Code Title 9) by reference. This will allow County officials, and City officials if needed, to enforce the County's general animal control regulations within Pismo Beach, per the City's contract with the County. Repeal of the City's animal control regulations (Pismo Beach Municipal Code Title 6) will eliminate complications and remove long-defunct regulations from the City's code.
2. Carve-out of Local Regulations. The City will reserve select local code provisions for local enforcement, by reinstating only those portions of the existing Title 6 that will need to continue to be enforced by the City, including:
• Dog leash laws.
• Prohibition of dogs on the pier, with the exception of service dogs.
Council Agenda 3-4-2025 12.13-1
Packet Page 43
• Goatkeeping permit regulations.
• Other miscellaneous animal control regulations that, for example, prohibit dangerous carnivorous animals, and require the management of noise and odor concerns in general.
• Prohibition on feeding birds in the creek and Cypress Street bridge area.
3. Penalties. In order for County or City animal control regulations to be enforced and prosecuted by the City, penalty provisions must be stated explicitly in the City's code, rather than adopted by reference. Violation of animal control regulations will be an infraction for a first offense, and a misdemeanor for a second offense with six months, subject to City Attorney review.
Procedure
Applicable Government Code provisions require an idiosyncratic noticing and adoption process for ordinances that adopt other regulations by reference. If the City Council acts to introduce this ordinance as recommended, the second reading is required to be calendared as a Public Hearing, with a full two weeks' public noticing period. In addition, a copy of the adopted code (SLOCC Title 9) must be on file in the Clerk's office throughout the noticing period, and on file in the office of the enforcement agency (the City Police Department) throughout the effective lifetime of the ordinance.
Omnibus Ordinance
The City Clerk and City Attorney maintain a running list of municipal code provisions that are known to be outdated or obsolete, or to contain typographical errors. In the interest of efficient use of staff time and financial resources, these minor, typically non-substantive changes are gathered into an omnibus ordinance along with other amendments not warranting stand-alone ordinances, and presented to Council no more than once a year.
Proposed changes for 2025, accumulated since the last omnibus ordinance was adopted in mid-2021, are summarized below and fully set forth in the draft ordinance provided as Attachment 2. For context, the City's complete Municipal Code is available online at pismobeach.org/municode. Further information, including strike-and-underscore exhibits of the proposed changes, may also be requested from the City Clerk's Office.
Summary of Proposed Changes
• Chapter 1.24 -Administrative Code Enforcement.
Largely non-substantive cleanup of terminology, numbering, and minor reorganization, to match contemporary (e.g. technological) practices and eliminate internal inconsistencies. In particular, this change will resolve an internal inconsistency regarding whether an appellant must appear at their appeal hearing in order for the matter to be carried. In addition, this revision will allow the hearing officer ten rather than two days to deliver their notice of decision, and clarifies that appeals must be filed by 5:00 p.m. on the tenth day following the date of citation.
Council Agenda 3-4-2025 12.113-2
Packet Page 44
• Section 2.04.280 - Mayor and Council Emergency Succession.
Codifies emergency succession protocols for the Mayor and Council Members to assure continuity of government in the event a majority of the Council is absent or incapacitated, in accordance with the updated Emergency Operations Plan adopted in late 2024. If this ordinance is introduced, Resolution R-2020-022, which set forth the prior emergency succession scheme and matched the old Emergency Operations Plan, will need to be rescinded concurrent with the second reading of the ordinance.
• Section 2.08.050 B. - City Manager Powers and Duties.
Updates the titles of the Department Head positions supervised by the City Manager, to remove City Clerk, add the Assistant City Manager, and update the title of the Public Works Director. This revision matches actual practice and does not result in a functional change.
• Section 2.08.100 - City Manager Succession.
Updates the City Manager's official successors in the event or absence or incapacity, reflecting the relatively new position title of Assistant City Manager as the first successor. This revision matches actual practice and does not result in a functional change.
• Chapter 2.18 (formerly 2.42) -Advisory Body Member Qualifications.
Renames and relocates this chapter, which establishes the prohibition on felons serving on City advisory bodies, to a more germane location next to Planning Commission regulations in the code. This change eliminates the requirement that the position be filled "immediately," in the event the Council desires to allow a vacancy to remain unfilled for any reason. This revision will also memorialize the fact that additional advisory body service qualifications, such as residency or technical background, depending on the body, shall be set by Council resolution. • Section 3.06.005 - Electronic Submittal of Claims.
Formally codifies the practice of allowing liability claims to be submitted electronically. Brings the City into compliance with Government Code Section 915(a)(3) as amended by Senate Bill 1473. This revision matches actual practice and does not result in a functional change.
• Section 3.06.010 - Exempt Claims.
Clarifies that in general, the City's claims code (Chapter 3.06) governs the types of claims that are exempt from Government Code provisions pertaining to liability claims. This revision matches actual practice and does not result in a functional change.
• Section 3.06.035 - Class Actions.
Pursuant to the California Supreme Court's decision in McWilliams v. City of Long Beach, which held in part that cities cannot prohibit the filing of class action lawsuits, a provision of the City's code prohibiting class actions will be repealed.
Council Agenda 3-4-2025 12.113-3
Packet Page 45
• Chapter 3.08- Purchasing.
Removes references to specific, outdated dollar-amount thresholds for purchasing authority and procurements; and instead states that such thresholds will be established by resolution of the City Council from time to time (i.e. in the form of the Purchasing Policy). In addition, this change will modernize references to bidding procedures that are now undertaken entirely electronically. • Chapter 5.16- Cardroom Licensing.
Removes provisions for licensing of card rooms, of which none currently exist in the city, and enacts a prohibition on card rooms instead. References to card room licensing will also be removed from Chapter 5.04.
• Section 5.22.050(C) - Vacation Rental Noticing.
Removes the requirement that proprietors of licensed Vacation Rentals send an annual notice to properties in the proximity regarding the existence of the Vacation Rental.
• Section 5.24.170— Fees and Penalties for False Alarms.
Provides that fees for false alarms generated by privately-owned alarm systems will be set by resolution of the City Council, in the same manner as other fees, and sets forth the structure for assessment of penalties upon unpaid invoices. • Chapter 5.28 - Solicitors and Peddlers.
Removes the current limitation on the definitions of "soliciting" and "peddling" to activities occurring on residential premises, to provide greater enforcement ability (i.e. in commercial areas) and eliminate internal inconsistencies. This change will also clarify the evening hours during which peddling and soliciting are prohibited outright.
• Section 12.16.070 - Logo Use for Special Events.
Allows the City Manager to authorize use of official City insignia for special events where the City is a sponsor, as well as for any other occasions where the City might want to give authorization. Prior code vested the authority in the Tourism and Events Director and was limited to events where the City had provided sponsorship consideration. This change will also strengthen the code language around unauthorized use of City insignia.
• Chapter 12.32 - Encroachments
Clarifies that a project requiring an Encroachment Agreement for a durable encroachment in the City's right-of-way must start by applying for an Encroachment Permit. In general, this change will better-define, and draw a clearer distinction between, Encroachment Permits and Encroachment Agreements. • Chapter 12.36 - Pavement Cuts.
Revises the definition of "Completion Date" so that roadways that are a part of multi-year paving projects aren't under moratorium (i.e. a prohibition on cutting into Council Agenda 3-4-2025 12.134
Packet Page 46
newly-laid pavement) until 5 years from the completion of the entire paving project, which sometimes spans multiple years. In addition, the meaning of an "excavation waiver" will be clarified to indicate that the waiver constitutes authorization to cut into a street that is currently under moratorium due to extenuating circumstances, but does not constitute a reprieve from the other requirements of the Chapter. • Various - "Public Works Director/City Engineer" Title.
Splits a number of existing references to the combined job title Public Works Director/City Engineer, as no employee currently holds said title. References will be changed to Public Works Director, retaining the flexibility for a designee such as the City Engineer to perform the duties when appropriate.
Alternatives
1. Introduce the ordinance(s) with revisions.
2. Introduce the ordinance(s); conduct first reading(s) in full.
3. Decline to introduce the ordinance(s); provide direction to staff.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Council introduce 1) an ordinance (Attachment 1) adopting San Luis Obispo County animal control regulations by reference; and 2) an omnibus ordinance (Attachment 2) effecting the cleanup of sections throughout the municipal code.
If the Council acts to introduce the ordinance(s) as recommended, both will be returned for second reading and adoption at the March 18, 2024 meeting. In accordance with Government Code requirements for ordinances that adopt other codes by reference, the March 18, 2024 proceedings will be scheduled as a public hearing.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no anticipated fiscal impact from this request or from any of the code changes proposed herein. If adopted, the codification of this ordinance will be absorbed by the adopted City Clerk Division budget.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PISMO BEACH,
CALIFORNIA IMPLEMENTING VARIOUS CHANGES TO THE CITY OF PISMO BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE, INCLUDING CHAPTERS 1.24, 2.04, 3.06, 3.08, 5.16,
5.22, 5.24, 5.28. 12.16, 12.32, and 12.36
WHEREAS, it is necessary and desirable to periodically implement omnibus corrections to outdated and inadvertently erroneous components of the City's Municipal Code; and WHEREAS, the City further seeks to implement certain other code provisions that will improve its ability to enhance the welfare of city residents and visitors.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Pismo Beach does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1.
The foregoing recitals are adopted as findings of fact in support of this ordinance.
SECTION 2.
Chapter 1.24 of the Pismo Beach Municipal Code is hereby revised to read in its entirety as follows:
Chapter 1.24 ADMINISTRATIVE CODE ENFORCEMENT PROCEDURE
1.24.010 Purpose—Adoption of administrative guidelines.
The purpose of this chapter is to enable the city to impose and collect civil administrative fines in conjunction with the enforcement of provisions of this code.
Notwithstanding the provisions herein, the city has, and shall continue to employ, the philosophy of voluntary compliance when seeking compliance with this code.
Prior to the implementation of the enforcement policies and penalties stated herein, voluntary compliance approaches, when practical, should first be used in order to educate city property owners and businesses concerning the requirements of this code and the corrective action necessary to correct a violation of this code.
1.24.020 Applicability.
A. Enforcement of the Municipal Code. This chapter makes any violation of the provisions of the Pismo Beach Municipal Code, including but not limited to all construction and property maintenance codes adopted by reference and amended pursuant to Title 15 of this Code, subject to administrative fines.
Council Agenda 3-4-2025 12.13-17
Packet Page 59
Attachment 2
B. Administrative authority. This chapter establishes the procedures for the imposition, enforcement, collection, and review of civil administrative fines pursuant to Section 53069.4 of the California Government Code.
C. Remedies not exclusive. The use of the administrative enforcement remedies provided by this chapter is solely at the city's discretion. By adopting this chapter, the city does not intend to limit its discretion to choose the use of any other remedy, civil or criminal, or other administrative procedures, for the abatement of such violations that the city may select in a particular case, including procedures for the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.
D. Strict liability of the owner. Because serious code violations may impact public health, welfare, and safety and the adequacy and safety of housing, this chapter is intended to impose strict civil liability upon the owners of real property (or the owner of a business where the violation is caused by or relates to the operation of a business) for all violations of the Pismo Beach Municipal Code which may occur in the city of Pismo Beach regardless of the existence of specific or general intent or prior knowledge of such violations and, further, regardless of any intent (or lack thereof) to violate the code.
1.24.030 Definitions.
The following definitions apply to the use of these terms for the purposes of this chapter:
A. "Code violation" means any violation of the Pismo Beach Municipal Code.
B. "Director" means the department head, or designee as approved by the City Manager, responsible for enforcing the municipal code with respect to the Director's department.
C. "Enforcement officer" means those city employees designated by the director and all peace officers providing law enforcement services in the city of Pismo Beach.
D. "Hearing officer" means the person designated to serve as the hearing officer for administrative hearings. The hearing officer shall be a city department head, or designee, from a city department other than the department that issued the administrative citation. The employment, performance evaluation, compensation and benefits of the hearing officer, if any, shall not be directly or indirectly conditioned upon the amount of notice of administrative citation fines upheld by the hearing officer.
Council Agenda 3-4-2025 12.113-18
Packet Page 60
Attachment 2
E. "Issued" means giving, mailing, or posting a notice of administrative citation to a person where "issuance" is deemed to have occurred on the earlier of the date when a notice of administrative citation is personally served on a person, the date it is mailed to a person by posting in the regular United States mail, or the date it is physically posted on real property where a property related code violation is occurring.
F. "Notice of administrative citation" means an official city Municipal Code violation notice issued to a person(s) notifying them that they are in violation of the Pismo Beach Municipal Code with respect to certain real property or the operation of a certain business. In the case of an initial notice, if the violation has not been corrected by a specified date, a civil administrative fine will be imposed. Subsequent notices regarding the same type of violation, within any twelve (12) month period, may be cause for imposing additional administrative fines without warning.
G. "Person" means any of the following:
1. An individual who causes a code violation to occur.
2. An individual who maintains or allows a code violation to continue, by their action or failure to act in a lawful manner.
3. An individual whose agent, employee, or independent contractor causes a code violation by its action or failure to act in a lawful manner.
4. An individual who is an owner of real property where a property related code violation occurs.
5. An individual who is an owner of a business or who is the on-site manager of a business and who normally works at the site when the business is open and is responsible for the activities at such premises.
For purposes of this subsection "person" includes a natural person or a legal entity including but not limited to, the owners, majority stockholders, corporate officers, trustees, and general partners of a legal entity. There shall be a legally rebuttable presumption that the record owner of a parcel as listed on the county's latest equalized property tax assessment rolls is the person responsible for a code violation on such parcel. In addition, where applicable, a commercial lessee, sublessee, or operator of a business on a parcel shall be presumed responsible for code violations relating to the operation of the business on that parcel.

Attachment 2
1.24.040 Authority to enforce administrative remedies.
A. Limitations. Nothing in this chapter shall be construed or interpreted as providing a code enforcement officer designated by the director with the authority to enforce any provision of the California Penal Code, the California Vehicle Code or any other statute that is specifically required to be enforced solely by the city's law enforcement agency.
B. Persons to retain exclusive authority. Nothing in this chapter shall limit or otherwise restrict any employee, agent or official of the city from exercising any exclusive authority to enforce any law or regulation as provided by any applicable statute, regulation, or policy.

1.24.050 Maintaining public nuisances prohibited.
Pursuant to the authority of Section 38771 of the California Government Code, any continuing violation of the Pismo Beach Municipal Code constitutes a public nuisance. Therefore, any person owning or having possession of any real property in the City of Pismo Beach who is in violation of any provision of the Pismo Beach Municipal Code may be determined to be maintaining a public nuisance; provided, however, that it shall not be the intent of the city that this chapter preempt any private nuisance right of action or any and all other legal remedies available to private parties to abate such nuisances.
1.24.060 Abatement of unlawful conditions—Administrative citation.
A. Inspections. Whenever an enforcement officer charged with the enforcement of any provision of this code inspects a property and determines that conditions constituting a violation of the Municipal Code exist thereon, the enforcement officer shall have the authority to issue an administrative citation to any person responsible for the violation.
B. Development review conditions. Every person who applies for and receives a permit, license, or any type of land use approval (such as, but not limited to, a development review approval, a subdivision map approval, a conditional or special use permit, a zoning requirement modification, a variance, or other discretionary approval) shall comply with all mandatory approval conditions imposed upon the issuance of the permit, license, or Council Agenda 3-4-2025 12.113-20

8. The name and signature of the citing enforcement officer.
D. Continuing violations. Each day a violation of this code exists shall be a separate and distinct violation and may be subject to a separate administrative fine. A notice of administrative citation may charge a violation for one or more days on which a violation exists and for violation of one or more applicable code sections. Pursuant to Section 53069.4(a)(2)(A) of the Government Code, a person responsible for a continuing violation shall be given not less than two (2) calendar days to correct or otherwise remedy a continuing violation before a subsequent citation may be issued.
Council Agenda 3-4-2025 12.13-21
Packet Page 63
Attachment 2
E. Prior violations. The city may take into consideration the fact that a person has been previously issued a notice of administrative citation when the city is determining whether to accept an application or to grant any permit, license or any similar type of land use approval for that person, and such notice of administrative citation may be used as evidence that the person has committed acts that are not compatible with the health, safety, and general welfare of other persons and businesses within the city.
F. Service of notice. The notice of administrative citation and any amended notice of administrative citation shall be served as provided in Section
1.24.150 of this Code.
1.24.070 Extensions of time.
If the director receives a request from any person required to comply with a notice of administrative citation, the director may grant an extension of any fine due date or abatement deadline if the director determines that such an extension of time will not create or perpetuate imminent danger to the public health and safety. The director shall have the authority to place reasonable conditions on such an extension.
1.24.080 Amount of fines.
A. Amount of fine. The amounts of the fines for code violations imposed pursuant to an administrative citation shall be set forth in a schedule of fines established by resolution of the city council and shall not exceed the maximum fine or penalty amounts for infractions set forth in Section 36900 of the California Government Code.

Any administrative citation fine paid pursuant to Section 1 .24.080 A. of this Code shall be refunded if it is determined by the hearing administrator, after a hearing, that the person charged in the administrative citation was not responsible for the violation or that there was no violation as charged in the administrative citation.
C. Further violations. Payment of an administrative citation fine shall not excuse or discharge any continuation or repeated occurrence of the code violation that is the subject of the administrative citation.

3. Suspension of issued permits. Notwithstanding any other provision of the code, any permit, license, or any type of land use approval issued by the city to a person who has unpaid administrative fines totaling five hundred dollars ($500) or more which remain delinquent for thirty (30) days or longer may be suspended by the department which issued the permit or other entitlement. The suspension becomes effective ten (10) days after the date the notice of the suspension is placed by the issuing department in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the person, and continues until the administrative delinquency is paid in full. The person may request an appeal/or review hearing pursuant to the specific permit, license, or other city approval procedures or ordinance if such a request is filed before the ten-day period ends.
4. Criminal remedies. The city attorney, at their discretion, may also issue a criminal citation or complaint (infraction or misdemeanor) to any person for a code violation when the applicable fine has not been paid.
B. Violations constitute a public nuisance. The director may pursue the remedies described in this section whether or not the city is pursuing any other action to terminate an ongoing code violation that was the basis for an administrative fine or to otherwise abate the violation or sanction the property owner. To compel code compliance, the city may also seek to collect assessed fines by means of a nuisance abatement lien or special assessment against the property where a property related violation occurred in accordance with the procedures in Sections 38773.1 and 38773.5 of the California Government Code.
C. Lien conditions. To recover any delinquent administrative fines as a lien or special assessment on real property, the following conditions must be met:
1. The director must submit to and receive approval from the city council for a resolution certifying the amounts of the liens and special assessments sought to be collected from each property owner; and
2. The total amount of the delinquent fine against the property owner must be delinquent for sixty days or more.
D. Lien collections. The director is authorized to take any steps necessary to enforce collection of the lien or special assessment, including but not limited to the following:

This notice shall satisfy the notice requirements of Sections 38773.1 and 38773.5 of the California Government Code when a notice of administrative citation is served on the person. In addition, the director shall by first class mail send notice stating the date, time, and location of the meeting to each property owner at least ten days before the city council considers the resolution to certify the amounts of the liens and special assessments. The lien or special assessment shall be imposed on the date the notice of administrative citation for the code violation is issued to the responsible person and shall become effective upon the recording of a notice of lien or special assessment by the county recorder.
F. Contesting certification of a lien. A person may contest the amount or the validity of any lien or special assessment for a civil fine at the public hearing when the city council considers the resolution to certify the liens or assessments. Such contests shall be limited to the issue of the amount or validity of the lien or assessment and may not consider whether the underlying code violation occurred. Pursuit of such a contest by a person is necessary to exhaust the administrative remedies concerning a legal challenge to the validity of any such lien or special assessment.
G. Satisfaction of lien. When payment in full is received by the city for outstanding penalties and costs, the director shall either record a notice of satisfaction or provide the property owner or financial institution with a notice of satisfaction so they may record this notice with the county recorder. Such notice of satisfaction shall cancel the city's lien.

12.32.010 Findings.
The council finds and declares the following: (1) the uncontrolled encroachment into the public right-of-way creates potential physical dangers to the traveling public and the numerous pedestrians who use the public rights-of-way in the city; and (2) limited, controlled encroachment and access into the public right-of-way should not be unreasonably or absolutely denied. The council concludes that reasonable accommodation can be satisfactorily achieved through this chapter of the city's municipal code which provides for special accommodations for encroachments into the right-of-way for any purpose deemed necessary or desirable and otherwise complying with state, city, and other applicable laws and regulations.

Meeting Date: March 4, 2025
TITLE:
Capital Improvement Program Semi-Annual Report
RECOMMENDATION:
No action recommended; for information only.
DISCUSSION:
The Ten-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is one of the most important planning documents for the City of Pismo Beach. This plan not only identifies the immediate needs but also seeks to capture the long-term capital requirements of the City. Capital projects are typically projects that lead to the acquisition and/or, construction of new assets or the improvement or extension of the useful life of existing capital assets. Capital assets include but are not limited to land, facilities, buildings, parks, playground equipment, streets and sidewalks, bridges, water, wastewater and storm drain infrastructure, technology systems and equipment, traffic control devices and many other items that deliver public benefit for a prolonged period of time. This report will provide an update on CIP projects currently in progress.
Every two years, the City Council meets to establish goals to guide the City during the next budget cycle. The most recent goal-setting meeting was held on January 24, 2025, to establish new goals to guide capital improvements, investments, and initiatives for the City for the next two years. The Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 and FY 2027 Council goals are:
• Quality of Life
• Streets and Infrastructure
• Public Safety
• Water Resources
• Parking and Circulation
• Development and Housing Access
Due to the duration of certain projects, some current projects reflect direction from the City Council's FY 2024 & FY 2025 goals, which are very similar to the new goals. The FY 2024 & FY 2025 goals were:
• Maintain a Focus on Public Safety
• Water Supply, Conservation and Central Coast Blue
• Community Character, Beautification and Quality of Life for Residents • Traffic, Circulation, and Parking
• Housing and Homelessness
