BACKGROUND
At the July 7, 2025 City Council meeting, the City Council directed staff to bring back the topic of City Council appointments to regional boards, commissions and committees for discussion.
The Sacramento Region has several public agencies that oversee various services within the area. These agencies' regional boards, commissions and committees often include representation from multiple municipalities, with one or more elected officials from each jurisdiction typically providing representation across the region.
Appointments to regional boards, commissions, and committees are crucial in fostering collaboration between the city and neighboring municipalities, regional partners, and stakeholders. These appointments offer the City Council an opportunity to directly influence key decisions and initiatives that impact the region. Attached is the approved appointments to various regional boards, commissions, and committees for 2025 (Attachment 1).
Included in this report is a comprehensive overview (Attachment 2) of current appointments to regional boards, commissions, and committees for 2025, which includes: the times and locations for each meeting, a brief background, currently assigned council members, and agency/committee contact information.

FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECTS
RECOMMENDATION
Waive the second reading and adopt the Ordinance.

BACKGROUND
On July 7, 2025, the City Council waived the first reading and passed to a second reading of the Ordinance.
FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE

WHEREAS, on July 7, 2025, the City Council held a properly noticed public hearing for this Ordinance and considered all oral and written testimony.
Section 2: Findings. This Ordinance is adopted pursuant to the following findings:
A. CEQA Compliance. CEQA requires analysis of agency approvals of discretionary “projects.” A “project,” under CEQA, is defined as “the whole of an action, which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.” (CEQA Guidelines, § 15378.) As reflected in State CEQA Guideline 15061 (b) (3), an activity is not subject to CEQA, “[where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment…” The proposed amendments are not a “project” within the meaning of CEQA because the amendments
ITEM 13.2. ATTACHMENT 1
Ordinance No. XX-2025 Page 3 of 4
seek to provide clarification of uses, standards and/or enforcement procedures, address inconsistencies between definitions, delete text that is no longer necessary. Because no expansion of uses or activities is reasonably anticipated, no possibility exists that the ordinance will result in a significant effect on the environment. Thus, the proposed ordinance is not subject to the requirements of CEQA. However, in the event that adoption of the ordinance is considered a CEQA project, it would nonetheless qualify for categorical exemptions as set forth below.
CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) states that a project is exempt from CEQA “where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.” The approval of the code amendments set forth in the proposed ordinance does not approve any physical development and it would not result in a direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. Any specific development projects that may result from these changes will be subject to environmental review. The proposed amendments are consistent with the City’s General Plan. For these reasons, the proposed amendments would not have the potential to result in individually or cumulatively significant effects on the environment and these Municipal Code amendments are exempt from review under CEQA and no further environmental review is necessary.
B. The proposed amendment is consistent with the General Plan. The attached Municipal Code Amendments (“Amendments”) are consistent with the General Plan. The amendments would address new state law related to timing of impact fees collection for affordable housing.
C. The proposed amendment would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City. The amendments would address new state law related to timing of impact fees collection for affordable housing. None of these proposed amendments will be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City.
D. The proposed amendments are internally consistent with other applicable provisions in Title 16. The Amendments have been reviewed for consistency with the entirety of the Municipal Code and are consistent with other applicable provisions of the Municipal Code.
Section 3. Amendments to Title 16 Buildings and Construction
The City Council hereby adopts the amendments to Title 16 Buildings and Construction of the Rancho Cordova Municipal Code, as shown and incorporated in Exhibit A to this Ordinance.
Section 4. Severability
If any provision of this Ordinance or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, is held invalid, the remainder of the Ordinance, including the application of such part or provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby and shall continue in full force and effect. To this end, provisions of this Ordinance are severable. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed each section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase hereof irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses, or phrases be held unconstitutional, invalid or unenforceable.

D. The property owner or his authorized agent shall apply for reimbursement as set forth in subsections (A), (B), (C) and (D) of this section no later than five years after the drainage facilities are constructed and accepted by the city.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.
RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adoption of the Resolution would authorize the City Manager to execute Subdivision Improvement Agreement Contract No. 2025-91, Attachment 2, guaranteeing the construction of public roads and utilities with Woodside 05N, LP, and the recording of the Final Subdivision Map for Arista Del Sol Phase 3B, north of Chrysanthy Blvd and west of Grant Line Rd.
BACKGROUND
The map has been examined and checked for compliance with Title 22 of the City of Rancho Cordova Municipal Code and the California Subdivision Map Act. The City Council approved the Large Lot Tentative Subdivision Map and Small Lot Tentative Subdivision Map on September 2, 2014. The Final Map of Arista Del Sol Phase 1 was approved May 16, 2022, per Resolution No. 64-2022. The Final Map of Arista Del Sol Phase 2 was approved June 17, 2024, per Resolution No. 75-2024. This map is 14.662 acres consisting of 104 development lots. A copy of the Final Map, Attachment 3, and copy of the Vicinity Map, Attachment 4, are included with this letter.
Woodside 05N, LP, has provided a performance and labor and material bond guaranteeing the construction of the public improvements. Wood Rodgers, Inc. has waived the requirement for a bond to guarantee payment for setting the survey monuments with the subdivision. The soil report requirement has been satisfied by Youngdahl Consulting Group, Inc. dated August 8, 2019.
There are no delinquent taxes against the property and the Tax Collector has so certified. The 2025/2026 estimated taxes have been secured with the Sacramento County Tax Collector.

(b) In lieu of said corporate surety bonds, Principal may furnish an improvement security consisting of a letter of credit, certificate of deposit, or similar instrument of credit, in form satisfactory to City, issued by a financial institution subject to regulation by the State or Federal government, pledging that the funds necessary to meet the performance required herein are on deposit, and guaranteed for payment on demand. Said letter of credit, certificate of deposit, or similar instrument of credit shall provide that the funds designated therein shall become trust funds for the purposes set forth in said instrument. ( c) The failure of Principal to commence the required work of improvements, or to complete the same within the time required after commencement thereof, shall entitle City to the full payment of the security, or so much thereof as may be necessary to complete the required work of improvement. The amount of the surety bond for faithful performance shall be in the sum of $3,574,210.00. The amount of the surety bond for the payment of the claims of the contractor, his subcontractors, and to persons renting equipment or furnishing labor or materials for the improvement shall be at least 50 percent of the above amount.

14. Execution By Real Party In Interest. Where title to the subdivision property is held by the record owner thereof under a holding Agreement, this Agreement and the bond given pursuant thereto must be executed by the real party or parties in interest.
15. Waiver of Civil Code Section 2819. Any extension of time hereunder shall not operate to release the surety on the bond filed pursuant to this Agreement. In this connection the surety waives the provisions of Section 2819 of the Civil Code of the State of California.
16. City Construction of Improvements. In the event that all or any portion of the works of improvement contemplated herein are proposed to be constructed by street improvement proceedings under the control of City, the undertaking of such proceedings shall in no way relieve Principal of any duties under this Agreement, except where all of the works of improvement that are required under this Agreement have in fact been constructed and accepted by City.
17. Interest. Interest shall accrue at the highest rate permitted by law on all sums from the date payment is due under the terms of this Agreement and the sum due is certain or reasonably capable of being made certain.
18. Attorneys' Fees. In the event that it is necessary for the City to enforce the obligations secured by the improvement security furnished pursuant to Paragraph 11 hereof, the City shall be entitled to recover its costs and reasonable expenses and fees, including reasonable attorneys' fees, as provided for in Government Code Section 66499.4.
19. Amendments. This Agreement may be modified or amended, or any of its provisions waived, only by a subsequent written agreement executed by the parties hereto.

It is agreed and acknowledged by the Principal that the provisions of this Agreement have been arrived at through negotiation, and that the Principal has had a full and fair opportunity to revise the provisions of this Agreement and to have such provisions reviewed by legal counsel.

SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE CONTRACT CHANGE ORDER NO. 2025-4-2 WITH MARTIN
GENERAL ENGINEERING, INC., TO INCREASE THE CONTRACT
AMOUNT FROM $370,009.16 TO AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED
$447,656.08 FOR CONSTRUCTION OF THE HSIP 11 SIGNALS AND
GRANT LINE ROAD SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.
RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adoption of the Resolution would allow staff to finalize construction of the Grant Line Road Safety Improvements, including the installation of LED warning signs, rumble strips, high-friction surface treatments, and shoulder paving to enhance safety, alert drivers, reduce vehicle skidding and help reduce collisions on this segment.
BACKGROUND
The city received a State Highway Safety Improvement Project (HSIP) Cycle 11 grant in 2023 for the amount of $819,270 for the Traffic Signals and Grant Line Road Safety Improvements Project. This project includes upgrading various vehicle signal heads along the corridors of Coloma Road, Mather Field Road and International Drive. This project also includes the following improvements along a curve segment on Grant Line Road between White Rock Road and Raymer Way: LED warning signs, rumble strips, shoulder paving and high friction surface treatment, Attachment 3.
On February 3, 2025, the City Council approved a construction contract with Martin General Engineering, Inc. and construction started on March 6, 2025.
Per the Rancho Cordova Municipal Code, Section 3.60.110 C, the City Manager is given the authority to approve change orders up to 10% of the contract value. During construction of the HSIP Cycle 11 Traffic Signals and Grant Line Road Safety Improvements Project, Administrative Change Order No. 1 in the amount of $32,233.66 was approved for field adjustments to paving limits at the Grant Line Road curve.
City Council Staff Report - Page 2 of 2
Change Order No. 2 is valued at $77,646.92, which exceeds the City Manager's signing authority, thus requiring City Council approval. This change order represents 1) Required repairs during the construction due to unforeseen conditions; and 2) Final adjustments in bid quantities for construction. The scope of work associated with Change Order No. 2 includes but is not limited to, roadside ditch grading, geogrid installation, additional leveling asphalt course, signage and fence relocation.
Change Order No. 2 fits within the available project budget and staff recommends approval of the change order. The next step is to complete construction in late September 2025.
FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE
This project is included in the Capital Improvement Plan budget for Fiscal Years 2025/2026 and 2026/2027. The Project budget consists of $819,270 from the Highway Safety Improvement Cycle 11 State Grant program and $360,730 in Gas Tax. There is no impact to the city’s General Fund.

DATE: August 4, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Michelle Mingay, Finance Manager
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE RATE AND METHOD OF
APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAXES WITHIN IMPROVEMENT
AREAS TO BE ANNEXED INTO THE CITY OF RANCHO CORDOVA
THE RANCH COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 2021-1
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.
RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
In August 2025, the Owner executed and delivered to the city a separate Request and Unanimous Approval for Annexation and Landowner-Voter Ballot (the “Unanimous Approval”) for Improvement Area No. 4 and for Improvement Area No. 5. Adoption of the Resolution would approve the annexation of Improvement Area No. 4 and Improvement Area No. 5 into the Community Facilities District (CFD), establish a bond authorization and appropriation limit for Improvement Area No. 4 and Improvement Area No. 5 in a specified amount, approve the Rate and Method of Appointment for each of Improvement Area No. 4 and Improvement Area No. 5, and direct the City Clerk to execute and record the Boundary Map and Notice of Special Tax Lien for Improvement Area No. 4 and Improvement Area No. 5.
BACKGROUND
On October 18, 2021, the city adopted a Resolution of Intention to establish a Community Facilities District (CFD) and Future Annexation Area for The Ranch project. On December 6, 2021, the city adopted a Resolution forming CFD No. 2021-1 pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (State of California Government Code Section 5311 et seq.) (the “Act”). The action defining the Future Annexation Area for the District provided for a more efficient process for the annexation of property when the property owners have provided for their unanimous consent. Defining the Future Annexation Area provided the Resolution of Intention, noticing, and public hearing for the entire Future Annexation Area so these steps do not need to be repeated for each annexation.
The Resolution of Formation provides that annexations into the CFD from land within the Future Annexation Area may be made by the Unanimous Approval of the landowner without Council action, provided however, if a maximum special tax amount for an Improvement Area to be newly established is greater than 120% of the maximum amount applicable in Improvement Area No. 1 of the CFD, Council action shall be required to establish a differing Rate and Method
City Council Staff Report - Page 2 of 2
of Apportionment of Special Tax (the “RMA”) for such Improvement Area.
The owner of all the territory within the Future Annexation Area has requested two separate tracts of land within the Future Annexation Area be annexed into the CFD as the newly created “Improvement Area No. 4” and “Improvement Area No. 5,” respectively, and has requested they be annexed with a maximum special tax greater than 120% of the maximum amount applicable in Improvement Area No. 1 of the CFD due to the increase of home types, sizes and prices planned for Improvement Area No. 4 and Improvement Area No. 5.
FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE
There is no fiscal impact to the city. Any Special Tax Bonds to be issued on behalf of the CFD are secured solely by the Special Tax levies within the District and are not debt of the city's General Fund.
