REGARDING ENTERTAINMENT ZONES
Recommendation: That the City Council:

1. Conduct the public hearing and receive testimony regarding the proposed amendments to Chapter 15.20 of the Porterville Municipal Code regarding Entertainment Zones; and

2. Introduce and waive the first reading of an ordinance amending Chapter

15.20 of the Porterville Municipal Code to expand the Downtown Entertainment Zone and establish the Porterville Sports Complex as an Entertainment Zone.

Page 11 of 14 ends

City Manager Tree introduced the item and presented the staff report.

The proposed amendments would expand the Downtown Entertainment Zone to include Third Street and D Street between Olive and Morton Avenues and establish the Porterville Sports Complex as an additional Entertainment Zone.

Mayor Meister opened the public hearing at 7:54 p.m.
• Emiran Saleh, Porterville, requested clarification regarding the purpose and operation of an Entertainment Zone.

Mayor Meister closed the public hearing at 7:55 p.m. when no one else came forward to speak.

Council Member Beltran raised concerns regarding administration of the Entertainment Zone program, including responsibility for procuring and accounting for wristbands, disposition of wristband revenue, use of the word "may" regarding the wristband fee, standards for approved beverage containers, and responsibility for security and enforcement during events.

City Manager Tree stated that some of the operational details could be addressed through administrative operating standards rather than codified directly within the ordinance. He reported that the Finance Department had administered the wristband process during the first event and indicated that numbered wristbands or similar controls could be utilized for future events. He stated that the first event generated slightly more than $1,000 in wristband revenue.

Mayor Meister expressed support for retaining flexibility in the fee provisions so that the Council could waive, increase or otherwise adjust a fee depending upon the nature of an event.

Following discussion, Council agreed to remove the specific $10 wristband amount from the ordinance and retain language providing that a wristband fee "may be required," with more specific administrative requirements to be addressed through operating standards.

COUNCIL ACTION: MOVED by Vice Mayor McKervey, SECONDED by Mayor Meister that the City Council approve for first reading of the ordinance, being AN

ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF POTERVILLE AMENDING CHAPTER 15.20 OF THE PORTERVILLE MUNICIPAL CODE TO EXPAND AND ESTABLISH ENTERTAINMENT ZONES, as amended to remove the specific $10 wristband fee from the ordinance, waive further reading, and order the ordinance to print.

Item No. 2.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: Purchase and Upfit of Two Animal Control Trucks SOURCE: Police
COMMENT: The Police Department annually evaluates its vehicle fleet to identify vehicles requiring replacement and opportunities to maximize existing fleet resources.

As part of this year's evaluation, the Department identified the need to replace two Animal Control vehicles currently used in daily Animal Control operations.

The vehicles proposed for replacement are:
• Unit 3355 – 2017 Ford F-350
• Unit 3332 – 2014 Ford F-350
Staff proposes purchasing two 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD 4WD Double Cab Work Trucks from Winner Chevrolet through California State Contract Cooperative Purchasing Agreement No. 1-22-23-20D.

Each vehicle will be equipped with an eight-compartment animal transport unit with dedicated climate-control and ventilation systems, emergency and warning equipment, Police radio equipment, and other equipment necessary for Animal Control operations.

Winner Chevrolet has provided a quote of $93,653.01 per vehicle, including the vehicle, animal transport upfit, radio installation, applicable sales tax, tire fees, and delivery, for a total purchase price of $187,306.02 for two vehicles.

Staff recommends an additional 10 percent contingency of $18,730.60 for licensing, registration, potential price variations, additional delivery costs, and unforeseen costs associated with completing the purchases and upfits. The total authorization would therefore not exceed $206,036.62.

Funding for the purchase and upfit of the two replacement Animal Control trucks is available in the FY 2026-27 Equipment Replacement/Depreciation Fund.

Item No. 2.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Authorize the purchase and upfit of two Animal Control trucks from Winner Chevrolet through California State Contract Cooperative Purchasing Agreement No. 1-22-23-20D in the amount of $187,306.02;

2. Authorize a 10 percent contingency of $18,730.60 for licensing, registration, potential price variations, additional delivery costs, and unforeseen costs associated with completing the purchases and upfits, for a total amount not to exceed $206,036.62; and

3. Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute purchase agreements, purchase orders, and any non-substantive
documents necessary to complete the vehicle purchases and upfits.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: Purchase and Upfit of Four Police Detective Vehicles SOURCE: Police
COMMENT: The Police Department annually evaluates its vehicle fleet to identify vehicles requiring replacement and opportunities to maximize existing fleet resources.

As part of this year's evaluation, the Department identified the need to replace four vehicles currently assigned for detective use.

The vehicles proposed for replacement are:
• Unit 3377 – 2019 Dodge Charger
• Unit 3379 – 2019 Dodge Charger
• Unit 3387 – 2019 Dodge Charger
• Unit 3374 – 2019 Dodge Charger
Staff proposes purchasing four 2027 Ford Explorer Base 4x4 vehicles from Downtown Ford Sacramento through California State Contract Cooperative Purchasing Agreement No. 1-22-23-23F. The total purchase price for the four vehicles is $163,255.66, including factory options, applicable taxes and fees, and delivery.

Following delivery, the vehicles will be upfitted by County of Tulare Radio for detective operations. The upfit includes emergency lighting, sirens, gun racks, radio mounting and related components, and installation. The cost of the upfit is $6,759.14 per vehicle, for a total of $27,036.56.

The combined cost to purchase and upfit the four vehicles is $190,292.22.

Upon completion of the upfits, the vehicles will be ready to be placed into service for detective operations.

Staff recommends a 10 percent contingency of $19,029.22 for licensing, registration, potential price variations, additional delivery costs, and unforeseen costs associated with completing the purchases and upfits, resulting in a total amount not to exceed $209,321.44.

Item No. 3.

Funding is available in the FY 2026-27 Equipment Replacement/Depreciation Fund.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Authorize the purchase of four 2027 Ford Explorer Base 4x4 vehicles from Downtown Ford Sacramento through California State Contract Cooperative Purchasing Agreement No. 1-22-23- 23F in the amount of $163,255.66;

2. Authorize the upfit of four Ford Explorers by County of Tulare Radio for detective operations in the amount of $27,036.56;

3. Authorize a 10 percent contingency of $19,029.22 for licensing, registration, potential price variations, additional delivery costs, and unforeseen costs associated with completing the purchases and upfits, for a total amount not to exceed $209,321.44; and

4. Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute purchase agreements, purchase orders, and any non-substantive
documents necessary to complete the vehicle purchases and upfits.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: CivicPlus Agenda and Meeting Management Services Renewal SOURCE: Administrative Services
COMMENT: In September 2019, the City Council approved an agreement with CivicPlus to implement a web-based agenda and meeting management system. Since implementation, CivicPlus has served as the City's platform for preparing, reviewing, publishing, and managing City Council agendas and meeting materials. The system has enhanced the City's agenda preparation and internal review processes, improved public access to meeting materials, and increased legislative transparency.

In 2024, the City Council approved the annual renewal of the agreement, which provides for a five percent annual increase and automatic one-year extensions unless otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The current agreement expires October 31, 2026.

The proposed renewal will provide continued Agenda and Meeting Management services from November 1, 2026 through October 31, 2027, at a cost of $13,180.61.

Renewal of the CivicPlus services will maintain uninterrupted access to the City's existing agenda and meeting management platform and provide continued support for the City's legislative and public meeting processes.

Funding for the renewal is available in the FY 2026-27 Administrative Services General Fund Operating Budget.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Approve the renewal of CivicPlus Agenda and Meeting
Management services for the period of November 1, 2026
through October 31, 2027, in the amount of $13,180.61; and

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: CivicPlus Recreation Management System Renewal SOURCE: Parks and Leisure Services
COMMENT: On November 17, 2015, the City Council authorized an agreement with Rec1 to provide a web-based recreation management system for the Parks and Leisure Services Department. The system provides online program registration and facility reservation services for City customers. In December 2016, CivicPlus acquired Rec1 and assumed its customers, contracts, and obligations. CivicPlus has since continued to provide the City's recreation management services.

Parks and Leisure Services proposes to renew the CivicPlus' Recreation Management services for the period of November 1, 2026 through October 31, 2027, at a cost of $8,981.45. Renewal of the CivicPlus services will maintain uninterrupted access to the City's existing recreation management platform and allow customers to continue registering for recreation programs and reserving City facilities online. Funding for the renewal is available in the FY 2026-27 Parks and Leisure Services General Fund Operating Budget.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Approve the renewal of CivicPlus Recreation Management services for the period of November 1, 2026 through October 31, 2027, in the amount of $8,981.45; and

2. Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute any nonsubstantive documents necessary to complete the renewal.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: Request for Proposals for Emergency Call Boxes SOURCE: City Manager's Office
COMMENT: The City currently manages more than 15 miles of multi-use recreational trails, including the Tule River Parkway. The eastern trailhead of the Parkway is located at Fallen Heroes Park, and the western trailhead is located just north of the intersection of Highway 190 and Highway 65. Phase III of the Parkway, extending from Plano Street to Main Street, opened in October 2025.

Along portions of the Tule River Parkway, dense foliage and topography can significantly reduce cellular phone reception. In the event of a medical emergency, fire, or public safety incident, limited cellular service may delay a trail user's ability to contact emergency services.

To improve emergency communication access along the Parkway, staff proposes issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for two emergency call boxes.

Emergency call boxes provide a dedicated means for trail users to request assistance and communicate directly with the City's Public Safety Dispatch Center.

The RFP establishes general technical and functional requirements for the proposed system, including:
• Power Source: Solar-powered operation with battery backup capable of up to 14 days of operation without sunlight.
• Connectivity: Commercial LTE cellular network compatibility with multicarrier roaming capabilities. • Visibility: Integrated LED blue locator lights that remain illuminated at night and flash during an active emergency call.
• Accessibility: Compliance with applicable Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements, including hands-free one-touch operation and braille signage.
• Durability: Vandal-resistant, weather-resistant enclosures suitable for local environmental conditions.

Item No. 6.

The competitive RFP process will allow the City to evaluate available emergency call box systems based on cost, responsiveness to the City's requirements, project understanding, proposer experience, and references.

Following evaluation of the proposals, staff will return to the City Council with a recommended award.

Funding for the project has been included in the adopted Fiscal Year 2026/27 Capital Improvement Project Plan using Measure I funds. A total of $32,000 is currently appropriated for the project.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council authorize staff to distribute a Request for Proposals for two (2) emergency call boxes along the Tule River Parkway.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: ESRI Geographic Information System Software Renewal SOURCE: Planning and Engineering
COMMENT: The City has used Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) software to manage its Geographic Information System (GIS) needs since 2004. In 2018, the City Council approved a contract for a commercial GIS platform that provides the software, licenses, subscriptions, and specialized GIS tools necessary to support the City's geographic information systems.

GIS integrates cartography, statistical analysis, and computer technology to manage, analyze, and present geographic data. It supports a wide range of City operations, including public notifications, public safety dispatch, infrastructure and asset management, traffic control, street sweeping, refuse collection, land use and zoning updates, and property ownership tracking. GIS data is also integrated into the City's emergency services dispatch system and building permit system, with many maps made available to the public on the City's website.

The City's current ESRI platform includes ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Online user subscriptions, and specialized GIS extensions used to support City operations.

Staff recommends renewing the City's existing ESRI software and maintenance services for the period of October 24, 2026 through October 23, 2027, in the amount of $12,830. The renewal will maintain uninterrupted access to the City's existing GIS platform, software updates, technical support, and other services.

Funding for the renewal is available through the FY 2026-27 General Fund and applicable Enterprise Fund departmental budgets.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: Acceptance of the Fourth Street Water Replacement Project SOURCE: Planning and Engineering
COMMENT: The Fourth Street Water Replacement Project included replacement of the existing undersized water main and water laterals within the project area and installation of a fire connection to the Overland Recreation Center, creating a looped fire protection system in compliance with the Fire Code.

The project was completed by 99 Pipeline, Inc. in accordance with the approved plans and specifications. All required inspections have been conducted, and the project has been found to meet the City's construction standards.

Staff tracks construction costs for all Capital Improvement Projects and provides a report of total expenditures when projects are accepted by the City Council. The final construction contract cost was $831,312.60. Construction management, special equipment, quality control, and inspection costs totaled $64,605.00, resulting in a final project cost of $895,917.60.

The final project cost is within the $908,420 authorized by the City Council and is $12,502.40 below the approved funding amount. The project was funded through Water Replacement Funds.

Completion of the project replaces aging and undersized water infrastructure, improves system reliability, and provides the fire connection necessary to support the Overland Recreation Center.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Accept the Fourth Street Water Replacement Project,
completed by 99 Pipeline, Inc., as complete; and

2. Authorize the City Clerk to file the Notice of Completion.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: Acceptance of Animal Control and Shelter Donation SOURCE: Police
COMMENT: On August 7, 2026, the Porterville Animal Control and Shelter received a donation in the amount of $201,209.38 from the Sheri L. Smith Revocable Living Trust.

The donor's intent, as confirmed in writing by the trustee, is that the funds be used for two specific purposes: improvements to the dog park at the Porterville Animal Control and Shelter, as needed, and veterinary services for animals entering the shelter whose veterinary expenses may not otherwise be feasible within the City's existing budget.

This generous contribution will provide additional resources to improve the dog park and address veterinary needs that may otherwise be difficult to accommodate within the Animal Control and Shelter's existing operating budget.

Staff recommends that the City Council formally accept the donation and authorize the funds to be deposited and separately accounted for to ensure that they are used exclusively for the purposes established by the donor.

The City of Porterville and Porterville Animal Control and Shelter gratefully acknowledge the Sheri L. Smith Revocable Living Trust for this generous contribution and its support of animal welfare in the community.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Accept the donation of $201,209.38 from the Sheri L. Smith Revocable Living Trust for the benefit of the Porterville Animal Control and Shelter; and

2. Authorize staff to deposit and separately account for the donated funds and use them exclusively for improvements to the dog park at the Porterville Animal Control and Shelter, as needed, and veterinary services for animals entering the shelter whose veterinary expenses may not otherwise be feasible within Item No. 9.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: Request for Expansion in Use – 1989 E. Roby Avenue SOURCE: Planning and Engineering
COMMENT: Staff received a request for approval of an expansion in use for the property located at 1989 E. Roby Avenue to support an application submitted to Tulare County for a building permit for an approximately 624-square-foot addition to the existing single-family dwelling and a 304-square-foot covered patio. The subject property is located in East Porterville, outside the City limits and within the City's Urban Development Boundary.

In 2016, the property received approval of an Extraterritorial Service Agreement (ESA) as part of the California Department of Water Resources Emergency Connection Project for East Porterville. The ESA included Irrevocable Agreement for Annexation No. 57-02 and a deed restriction that was subsequently recorded with the Tulare County Recorder's Office.

As a condition of the ESA, the recorded deed restriction provides that no expansion or modification of the existing use, including the conversion of structures or addition of habitable structures, may occur without approval of the City Council. Because the proposed addition constitutes an expansion of the existing residential use, City Council approval is required pursuant to the existing ESA and recorded deed restriction.

Approval of the requested expansion in use will allow the property owner to proceed with the applicable Tulare County permitting process for the proposed addition and covered patio. City Council approval does not annex the property into the City limits and does not modify or eliminate the existing annexation requirements applicable to the property under the Irrevocable Agreement for Annexation.

The project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15268(b)(4).

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council adopt the Resolution approving an expansion in use at 1989 E. Roby Avenue for an approximately Item No. 10.
624-square-foot addition to the existing single-family dwelling and a 304-square-foot covered patio, pursuant to the existing Extraterritorial Service Agreement and recorded deed

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: Public Convenience or Necessity – State Foods, 66 W. Morton Avenue SOURCE: Planning and Engineering
COMMENT: The applicant is seeking a Type 20 Off-Sale Beer and Wine license from the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) for State Foods, a newly established grocery store located at 66 W. Morton Avenue. The City's Project Review Committee (PRC) evaluated the site layout on August 26, 2026.

Following that review, staff determined that Conditional Use Permit No. 6-95, previously approved for off-sale retail use at the site, remains active and has not expired.

Under California Business and Professions Code Section 23958.4, ABC may determine that an undue concentration of alcoholic beverage licenses exists within a census tract based upon the number of licenses and population.

When an undue concentration exists, issuance of a license may require a determination that public convenience or necessity would be served by the proposed license.

The subject property is located within Census Tract 38.02. According to ABC information provided for the application, the census tract currently contains 20 alcoholic beverage licenses, consisting of 13 on-sale licenses and seven offsale licenses. Four off-sale licenses are allowed within the census tract without being deemed over-concentrated. Therefore, the census tract currently exceeds the applicable concentration threshold for off-sale licenses.

Because State Foods is requesting a Type 20 Off-Sale Beer and Wine license within a census tract that is already over-concentrated for off-sale licenses, a determination of Public Convenience or Necessity is required for the proposed license.

The proposed license would allow State Foods to sell beer and wine for consumption off the premises in conjunction with the operation of the grocery store. The property is designated General and Service Commercial, which is intended to provide for commercial uses and convenient access to goods and services. The proposed off-sale beer and wine license would operate as an accessory component of the grocery store and would be subject to applicable Item No. 12.

ABC requirements and existing City land use regulations.

Staff recommends that the City Council determine that public convenience or necessity would be served by issuance of the Type 20 Off-Sale Beer and Wine license for State Foods and authorize the Mayor to execute the associated letter to ABC.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Determine that public convenience or necessity would be served by the issuance of a Type 20 Off-Sale Beer and Wine license for State Foods, located at 66 W. Morton Avenue; and

2. Authorize the Mayor to execute the Letter of Public
Convenience or Necessity to the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control.

RE: State Foods, 66 W. Morton Avenue, Porterville, CA
Dear Ms. Weldon:

The City Council of the City of Porterville has determined that public convenience or necessity would be served by the issuance of a Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer and Wine) license for State Foods, a grocery store located at 66 W. Morton Avenue, Porterville, California.

The subject property is located within Census Tract 38.02, which currently contains seven offsale alcoholic beverage licenses, while four off-sale licenses are allowed without being deemed over-concentrated. Accordingly, a determination of Public Convenience or Necessity is required for the proposed license.

In making its determination, the City Council considered that the Type 20 license would be operated in conjunction with a grocery store on property designated General and Service Commercial and would provide an additional retail service to the surrounding community.

Based upon these considerations, the City Council finds that public convenience or necessity would be served by issuance of the requested Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer and Wine) license for State Foods.

Sincerely,
Greg Meister, Mayor

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: Permanent Local Housing Allocation Year 4 Navigation Center Funding Award SOURCE: Planning and Engineering
COMMENT: At its September 1, 2026 meeting, the City Council considered funding recommendations for Years 4 and 5 of the City's Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Program. During the initial competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) process, Kings View submitted a proposal that included navigation center operations; however, its proposed budget for Year 4 Navigation Center Operations was inadvertently omitted and was not submitted until after the RFP deadline.

To maintain the integrity of the competitive process, staff did not consider the late-submitted budget and recommended that the remaining Year 4 Navigation Center Operations funding be made available through a new competitive RFP. The City Council approved that recommendation and authorized staff to issue the new RFP.

The remaining Year 4 funding available for Navigation Center Operations consists of $73,460 in program funding and $3,450 in allowable administrative funding, for a total of $76,910. Consistent with Council's direction, the City issued RFP No. 26/27-SR2028 seeking qualified nonprofit organizations to provide navigation center operations within the City of Porterville.

The RFP closed on September 23, 2026. The City received one proposal from Kings View for operation of the Porterville Navigation Center located at 140 S.

C Street. The proposal was evaluated by the City's review committee based on the criteria established in the RFP, including understanding of the project and scope of services, relevant experience, and the proposed budget and fee structure. The review committee determined that Kings View met the required qualifications and recommends funding the proposal in the full amount of $76,910.

The proposed funding will support continued operation of the Porterville Navigation Center, which provides navigation center, emergency shelter, bridge housing, case management, meals, transportation, and other housingfocused services to individuals experiencing homelessness. Under the Item No. 13.
proposed Subrecipient Agreement, Kings View will be required to comply with applicable PLHA requirements, provide performance reporting, maintain supporting financial documentation, and submit reimbursement requests based upon actual eligible expenditures.

The $76,910 award consists entirely of PLHA Year 4 funds and must be expended in accordance with applicable PLHA requirements and the March 30, 2027 expenditure deadline.

Approval of the recommended award will complete the competitive process authorized by the City Council on September 1, 2026, and allocate the remaining Year 4 Navigation Center Operations funding in accordance with the City's adopted PLHA Five-Year Plan.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Award $76,910 in Permanent Local Housing Allocation Year 4 funding to Kings View for operation of the Porterville Navigation Center at 140 S. C Street; and

2. Approve the Subrecipient Agreement with Kings View and authorize the Mayor to execute the agreement and any nonsubstantive documents necessary to implement the award.

EXHIBIT A

SCOPE OF WORK
Activity: Operation costs for Porterville Navigation Center (PNC) Objective: At orbelow30%AMI
Eligibility: Navigation Center, Bridge Housing and Emergency Shelter Program for people experiencing homelessness. PNC addresses priority six in the PLHA Five-Year Plan by providing case management services for people experiencing homelessness, as well as the operation of a navigation center that provides an array of services listed below to people experiencing homelessness. All case management services are housing focused with the ultimate goal of seeing participants transitioning to permanent housing situations.

Project Description:

Kings View will provide case management services for people experiencing homelessness who are income eligible households (at or below 30% of AMI), as well as access to emergency and bridge housing that can lead to permanent housing. Porterville Navigation Center (PNC) is a navigation center model for shelter, bridge housing, and housing focused services, as well as meal provision for approximately 80 persons per day. PNC operates a Housing First model for emergency shelter and bridge housing, providing services with extremely low barriers to entry, with no requirements relating to income, treatment compliance, or sobriety. All guests at PNC are literally homeless with all referrals for bridge housing beds taken through the Coordinated Entry System operated by the Kings Tulare Homeless Alliance. Services include case management, housing location, meals, life skills training, laundry, linkages to community services and resources, assistance with enrollment in mainstream benefits, and transportation. PNC also provides access to showers and laundry facilities located on site. PNC has a projected average length of stay of 60 days for shelter beds and 120 days for the bridge housing beds. It is estimated that the program will serve a minimum of 75 households per year in shelter and bridge housing.

PNC will provide day services, excluding overnights, to approximately 400 people per year.

The City of Porterville’s 2022 PLHA Allocation of $76,910 for navigation center operations will be used to acquire equipment that expands the recovery-oriented nature of the PNC. This includes equipment such as paint, cupboards, cleaning and maintenance supplies, and other equipment to ensure that unhoused Porterville residents feel welcome and attend the Porterville Navigation Center. Additionally, PLHA funding would support the costs of the program manager, lead care managers, and care managers, and communication costs related to program staff and facilities costs such as furnishings (tables, desks, and chairs), utilities, repairs, facility services and supplies, computer peripherals for staff, office and program supplies. The proposed budget also supports the costs of minor equipment needed for network setup and network subscription costs. Administration funds would be utilized for costs associated with the administration of the eligible activities.

SUBJECT: 2026 Porterville Veterans Day Parade Media Sponsorship SOURCE: City Manager's Office
COMMENT: The Porterville Veterans Day Parade is a longstanding community tradition that honors veterans and highlights Porterville's continued support for those who have served. The 2026 Veterans Day Parade is scheduled for Wednesday, November 11, 2026, on Main Street in Downtown Porterville.

The City has previously partnered with Mister Media to provide television coverage and promotion of the Veterans Day Parade. Mister Media has submitted a proposal to continue the partnership for the 2026 parade at a total cost of $12,500.

The proposed sponsorship includes a live broadcast on KSEE Channel 24 and live-streaming of the parade from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon, along with 40 Porterville promotional spots scheduled to begin airing in November. The proposal also includes the production crew and equipment necessary to produce the broadcast.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: General Plan Amendment – 1405 and 1425 W. Henderson Avenue (GPA 2026- 001)
SOURCE: Planning and Engineering
COMMENT: The applicant, Brian McLaughlin, on behalf of property owners Ralph and Nancy McLaughlin, is requesting approval of General Plan Amendment GPA 2026-001 (PRC 2024-015-GPA) for two vacant parcels totaling approximately

0.73 acres located at 1405 and 1425 W. Henderson Avenue (APNs 251-350-023 and 251-350-024). The properties currently have a General Plan Land Use designation of Public Institutional and a Zoning classification of Retail Centers (CR).

The proposed General Plan Amendment would change the General Plan Land Use designation for the properties from Public Institutional to Retail Centers.

The amendment would resolve the existing inconsistency between the City's General Plan Land Use Map and Zoning Map by establishing Retail Centers as the applicable designation under both documents.

The project site is located on the south side of W. Henderson Avenue, east of Newcomb Street, along the W. Henderson Avenue commercial corridor. The properties are immediately adjacent to property designated Retail Centers to the east, with additional commercial development and commercial land use designations in the surrounding area. The subject properties are privately owned, and no public or institutional facilities are located or planned on the site.

The applicant has identified a potential future commercial development on the properties, including an approximately 2,400-square-foot fast-food restaurant with a drive-through. Approval of the General Plan Amendment would not constitute approval of the proposed development. Any future development of the properties will remain subject to applicable development review, entitlement, permitting, environmental review, and other regulatory requirements.

The Project Review Committee reviewed the project on May 22, 2024. Formal consultation notification letters were transmitted to local Native American Item No. 19.
tribes on March 18, 2025, pursuant to applicable consultation requirements.

The statutory 90-day consultation period under SB 18 has concluded.

Staff has determined that General Plan Amendment GPA 2026-001 qualifies for a Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15303(c) of the State CEQA Guidelines. Any future development proposal will remain subject to applicable environmental review requirements.

Approval of the General Plan Amendment would establish consistency between the General Plan Land Use and Zoning designations for the properties while allowing future development proposals to proceed through the City's applicable development review and permitting processes.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Conduct the public hearing and receive public testimony regarding General Plan Amendment GPA 2026-001 (PRC 2024- 015-GPA); and

2. Adopt the Resolution approving General Plan Amendment GPA 2026-001 (PRC 2024-015-GPA), amending the General Plan Land Use designation for APNs 251-350-023 and 251-350-024 from Public Institutional to Retail Centers.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – OCTOBER 6, 2026
SUBJECT: Putnam and Tomah Area Concrete and Water Improvements Project SOURCE: Planning and Engineering
COMMENT: On June 12, 2026, the City received nine bids for the Putnam and Tomah Area Concrete and Water Improvements Project. The project includes Tomah Avenue between Lotas Street and Beverly Street, Beverly Street from Tomah Avenue to Putnam Avenue, and Putnam Avenue from Newcomb Street to Beverly Street. The project consists of replacement of water mains and installation of curb, gutter, sidewalk, and drive approaches on the north side of Tomah Avenue and the south side of Putnam Avenue from approximately 212 feet west of Newcomb Street to approximately 127 feet west of Mankins Circle.

The Engineer's Estimate of Probable Cost for the project was $1,291,500.

Advanced Engineering USA of Porterville submitted the lowest responsive bid in the amount of $1,247,835, which is approximately 3.38 percent below the Engineer's Estimate. Staff reviewed the bids received and determined the bid submitted by Advanced Engineering USA to be acceptable.

The bids received were as follows:

Advanced Engineering - $1,247,835.00
Bill Nelson General Engineering Construction, Inc - $1,278,625.00 Superior Ag Construction, Inc - $1,454,624.50
Dawson-Mauldin, LLC - $1,555,600.00
Todd Companies - $1,717,295.00
West Valley Construction Company, Inc - $1,745,750.00
Floyd Johnston Construction Co., Inc - $1,747,373.00
Cal Valley Construction, Inc - $1,949,448.00
Cen-Cal Construction - $2,113,339.50
In addition to the $1,247,835 construction contract, staff recommends a construction contingency of $124,783 and $124,783 for construction management, surveying, quality control, and inspection services. The total project budget is $1,497,401.

Item No. 21.

Pedestrian-related components of the project are eligible for reimbursement through the Measure R Active Transportation Program administered by the Tulare County Association of Governments (TCAG). The proposed Measure R Program Supplement to the Cooperative Agreement provides $100,877.18 in Measure R funding toward eligible project costs. Staff recommends approval of the Program Supplement and adoption of the associated Resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Program Supplement and related documents.

The FY 2026-27 Capital Improvement Program currently includes $800,000 in Water Replacement Funds for the project. Based on the construction bid, contingency, construction management, surveying, quality control, and inspection costs, an additional $596,523.82 in Water Replacement Funds is required to fully fund the project. It is important to note that at the time budget amounts and funding sources are identified in the Capital Improvement Program, it is often prior to the completion of full design work and estimates based on said design. In an effort to prevent the need for requesting multiple budget augmentations during the bid process, staff has historically waited to make any necessary requests until actual bids are received so true numbers are represented.

Staff therefore recommends amending the FY 2026-27 Capital Improvement Program budget to appropriate an additional $596,523.82 from the available Water Fund balance, increasing the Water Replacement Funds appropriation for the project from $800,000 to $1,396,523.82. Combined with $100,877.18 in Measure R Active Transportation Program funding, the revised total project budget will be $1,497,401.

A separate Resolution approving the FY 2026-27 Capital Improvement Program budget amendment is included for City Council consideration.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Adopt the Resolution approving the Measure R Program Supplement to the Cooperative Agreement with the Tulare County Association of Governments for the Putnam and Tomah Area Concrete and Water Improvements Project and authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Program Supplement and related documents;

2. Adopt the Resolution amending the FY 2026-27 Capital Improvement Program budget to appropriate an additional $596,523.82 from available Water Fund fund balance to the Putnam and Tomah Area Concrete and Water Improvements
Project, increasing the Water Replacement Funds appropriation from $800,000 to $1,396,523.82;
Item No. 21.

3. Award the Putnam and Tomah Area Concrete and Water
Improvements Project construction contract to Advanced
Engineering USA in the amount of $1,247,835;

4. Authorize a construction contingency of $124,783;

5. Authorize $124,783 for construction management, surveying, quality control, and inspection services; and

6. Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute the construction contract and any non-substantive documents necessary to complete the project, subject to applicable Measure R authorization requirements.
