Developed Property, if applicable to the Tax Zone in which the Parcels are located, the Administrator shall determine if each Parcel is an Ordinary Use Parcel, an Additional Load Parcel, a Residential Alley Parcel, a Decorative Lighting Parcel, an Additional Load and Decorative Lighting Parcel, a Residential Alley and Decorative Lighting Parcel, Private Street Parcel, 50/50 Public & Private Residential Street Parcel, or a Heavy Truck Traffic Parcel.
Based on review of building permit records for property within the CFD, the Administrator shall determine which Parcels in the CFD are Developed Property for purposes of levying the Special Tax pursuant to Section D below. For Single Family Attached Property, Multi-Family Property, Micro-Unit Property, and Hotel Property, the number of Units shall be determined by referencing the condominium plan, apartment plan, site plan or other development plan for the property. For Residential Property, the Administrator shall determine the Square Footage of each Unit. For Non-Residential Property, the Administrator shall determine the Acreage of, and Square Footage on, each Parcel.
If a Parcel in the CFD is rezoned prior to such Parcel becoming Developed Property, the City may in its sole discretion, move the Parcel to a different Tax Zone based on the rezone. If a Parcel rezones after the Parcel has been taxed as Developed Property in prior Fiscal Years, the City can either continue to apply the Maximum Special Tax to the Parcel that had applied prior to the rezone or, in the City’s sole discretion, allow for the Parcel to be moved to a different Tax Zone based on the rezone.
In any Fiscal Year, if it is determined that (i) a parcel map for a portion of property in CFD No. 2014-2 was recorded after January 1 of the prior Fiscal Year (or any other date after which the Assessor will not incorporate the newly-created Parcels into the then current tax roll), (ii) because of the date the parcel map was recorded, the Assessor does not yet recognize the new Parcels created by the parcel map, and (iii) one or more of the newly-created Parcels meets the definition of Developed Property, the Administrator shall calculate the Special Tax for the property affected by recordation of the parcel map by determining the Special Tax that applies separately to each newly-created Parcel, then applying the sum of the individual Special Taxes to the Parcel that was subdivided by recordation of the parcel map.

D. METHOD OF LEVY AND COLLECTION OF SPECIAL TAX
Each Fiscal Year, the Special Tax shall be levied as follows until the amount of the levy equals the Special Tax Requirement for that Fiscal Year:
First: The Special Tax shall be levied proportionately on each Parcel of Developed Property up to 100% of the Maximum Special Tax determined for each category of Developed Property within the CFD and each Tax Zone until the amount levied is equal to the Special Tax Requirement for the Fiscal Year.
Second: If additional revenue is needed after the first step has been completed, the Special Tax shall be levied proportionately on each Parcel of Taxable Public Property up to 100% of the Maximum Special Tax that would have applied to the Parcel had the Parcel not become Public Property until the amount levied is equal to the Special Tax Requirement for the Fiscal Year.
The Special Tax for CFD No. 2014-2 shall be collected at the same time and in the same manner as ordinary ad valorem property taxes provided, however, that the City may (under the authority of Government Code Section 53340) collect Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to meet CFD No. 2014-2 financial obligations and the Special Tax shall be equally subject to foreclosure if delinquent.
E. LIMITATIONS Notwithstanding any other provision of this Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax, no special Tax shall be levied on (i) any Parcel of Public Property that ITEM 9.6.
ATTACHMENT 3
Exhibit B to the Resolution
is not Taxable public Property, and (ii) any Parcel in CFD No. 2014-2 that is not Developed Property.
F. DURATION OF SPECIAL TAX
The Special Tax shall be levied in perpetuity to fund the Special Tax Requirement, unless no longer required as determined at the sole discretion of the City Council.
G. INTERPRETATION OF SPECIAL TAX FORMULA
The City reserves the right to make minor administrative and technical changes to this document that does not materially affect the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Taxes. In addition, the interpretation and application of any section of this document shall be left to the City’s discretion. The City may make interpretations by ordinance or resolution for purposes of clarifying any vagueness or ambiguity in this Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Taxes.

D. METHOD OF LEVY AND COLLECTION OF SPECIAL TAX
Each Fiscal Year, the Special Tax shall be levied as follows until the amount of the levy equals the Special Tax Requirement for that Fiscal Year:
First: The Special Tax shall be levied proportionately on each Parcel of Developed Property up to 100% of the Maximum Special Tax determined for each category of Developed Property within the CFD and each Tax Zone until the amount levied is equal to the Special Tax Requirement for the Fiscal Year.
Second: If additional revenue is needed after the first step has been completed, the Special Tax shall be levied proportionately on each Parcel of Taxable Public Property up to 100% of the Maximum Special Tax that would have applied to the Parcel had the Parcel not become Public Property until the amount levied is equal to the Special Tax Requirement for the Fiscal Year.
The Special Tax for CFD No. 2014-2 shall be collected at the same time and in the same manner as ordinary ad valorem property taxes provided, however, that the City may (under the authority of Government Code Section 53340) collect Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to meet CFD No. 2014-2 financial obligations and the Special Tax shall be equally subject to foreclosure if delinquent.

SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION DECLARING THE CITY’S INTENTION TO IMPOSE
AN ANNUAL STORMWATER UTILITY FEE FOR THE MAINTENANCE
OF STORM DRAINAGE AND FLOOD PROTECTION SYSTEMS FOR
THE ASTERIA FLATS APARTMENTS PROJECT
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution designating a time and place for hearing protests in connection with the annual Stormwater Utility Fee for the Asteria Flats Apartments project.
RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adoption of the Resolution would declare the Council’s intention to impose an annual Stormwater Utility Fee for the maintenance of the storm drainage and flood protection system in the Asteria Flats Apartments project.
BACKGROUND
The Asteria Flats Apartments project was previously approved with a condition of approval which requires that the property owner fund operation and maintenance of the storm drainage system. This condition will be satisfied by participation in the City’s Stormwater Utility Fee for storm drainage and flood protection services, which is the subject of this action.
Previously, projects were required to annex to the County’s Stormwater Utility. Since the City has taken over drainage maintenance and operations services from the County, it was necessary to establish the Stormwater Utility District to fund drainage services to ensure compliance with new state and federal laws and regulations. The Stormwater Utility Fee was established on September 2, 2014, by Ordinance No. 7-2014.
DISCUSSION
The property owners have submitted a petition and waiver for the City to institute the proceedings to impose the Stormwater Utility Fee Attachment 5. The Asteria Flats Apartments project is being annexed into the Stormwater Utility Fee Attachment 3. The maintenance services to be funded include the furnishing of services and materials for the ordinary and usual operation, maintenance, and servicing of the storm drain and flood protection improvements.
City Council Staff Report - Page 2 of 2
A “Rate Analysis Report” was adopted on August 7, 2014, by Resolution No. 103-2014. The report calculated the Fiscal Year 2014/2015 maximum annual Stormwater Utility Fee amount for each parcel proportionate to the estimated stormwater runoff for each parcel. The maximum annual fee increases each subsequent Fiscal Year by the annual change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), during the preceding year, for all Urban Consumers, for the San Francisco- Oakland-San Jose areas, published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. A sample of the Stormwater Utility Fees for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 is provided in Attachment 4.
In accordance with Article XIII D, the “Procedures for the Conduct of a Protest Hearing and Balloting Relating to a Proposed Stormwater Utility Fee” as set forth in Attachment 2 and incorporated herein by reference (the “Procedures”).
The Resolution, Attachment 1, sets the public hearing at 5:30 p.m., or as soon thereafter as possible, on March 16, 2026, as the time and date for a hearing on the matters set forth therein and directs the City Clerk to give notice of the public hearing. Notice of the Public Hearing will be published in the Grapevine Independent as required by law.
FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE
There is no fiscal impact on the City's General Fund. The annual stormwater utility fees collected are deposited into an enterprise fund specifically for the maintenance of the storm drainage and flood protection system.

WHEREAS, this Council has caused a written report entitled, "Rate Analysis Report", dated August 7, 2014, (the "Written Report") prepared by Harris & Associates and filed with the City Clerk containing a description of each parcel of real property within the city to which the Proposed Stormwater Utility Fee is applicable collectively, the "Identified Parcels") and the amount of the Proposed Stormwater Utility Fee for each such Identified Parcel for Fiscal Year 2014-15. The Written Report is on file in the office of the City Clerk and is available for public inspection; and
WHEREAS, Article XIII D of the California Constitution and the Proposition 218 Omnibus Implementation Act (Government Code Section 53750, et seq.) (the "Implementation Act") imposes certain procedural and substantive requirements relating to the imposition of property- related fees and charges (as defined in Article XIII D), such as the Proposed Stormwater Utility Fee, including the requirement to conduct a protest hearing and balloting for consideration of the Proposed Stormwater Utility Fee. In accordance with Article XIII D and the Implementation Act, the City Council hereby approves the "Procedures for the Conduct of a Protest Hearing and Balloting Relating to a Proposed Stormwater Utility Fee" as set forth in Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference (the "Procedures"); and
WHEREAS, this Council has received petitions and waivers from the owners of 100% of the area of land proposed to be included in the Proposed Stormwater Utility Fee in which the Petitioner has waived all notices of hearings and all published notices regarding the establishment of the stormwater utility fee, notices of election, and applicable waiting periods.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CORDOVA as follows:
1. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein.
2.

FROM: Lydia Thung, Management Analyst
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE CONTRACT AMENDMENT NO. 2025-271-1 WITH CREATIVE
NOGGIN, LLC IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $30,000 FOR
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT MARKETING AND COMMUNICATIONS
SERVICES MAKING THE CUMULATIVE AMOUNT OF THE
CONTRACT $130,000
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the resolution.
RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adoption of the Resolution would authorize the City Manager to execute Contract No. 2025- 271-1 with Creative Noggin, LLC in an amount not to exceed $30,000 for economic development marketing and communications services making the cumulative amount of the contract $130,000.
BACKGROUND
On January 1, 2026, the city entered into a Professional Services Agreement with Creative Noggin, LLC to provide communications and graphic design support services for the Rancho Cordova Youth Center (RCYC) and the Rancho Cordova Promise Program (RCCP).
The city's Economic Development Department has continued to advance implementation of its 2025-2028 Economic Development Strategic Plan (EDSP) which outlines priorities for business attraction, retention, expansion, and industry positioning. While the city maintains strong general communications resources, it does not currently have a dedicated economic development communications strategy, toolkit, or set of branded assets specifically tailored to priority industries and business audiences.
To further support implementation of the EDSP, the city seeks to expand Creative Noggin’s scope of services to include development of an Economic Development Communications Strategy and Implementation Toolkit. Creative Noggin, LLC is currently providing communications services to the city and is familiar with the city’s brand standards, messaging, and internal processes. Expanding the current agreement will allow for continuity, efficiency, and consistency in the implementation of the Economic Development Communications Strategy and Implementation Toolkit.
City Council Staff Report - Page 2 of 2
The Economic Development Communications Strategy and Implementation Toolkit project will be conducted between March 2026 and June 2026.
FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE
The additional services will increase the Agreement amount by $30,000, for a total amount not to exceed $130,000.
This project has been budgeted for from the Economic Development Department’s approved Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Measure R budget.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.
RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
The 2025 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER) will be submitted to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for review according to requirements and timelines.
BACKGROUND
The City of Rancho Cordova receives an annual entitlement allocation of CDBG funds from HUD. The city received $677,844 of CDBG funds in Program Year (PY) 2025. CDBG allows the city to carry out housing and community development projects and programs, such as housing rehabilitation, neighborhood infrastructure improvements, and public services, for low- and moderate-income individuals, households, and neighborhoods.
HUD requires an annual evaluation of the programs and projects funded through its CDBG grant allocation, known as the CAPER. The PY 2025 CAPER describes the city’s accomplishments in the implementation of programs and activities under the CDBG program. It also reports the progress of the city in meeting overall five-year goals and priorities identified as part of the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan.
CDBG regulations require that the public be given a 15-day period in which to review the CAPER and provide comments prior to its approval by the City Council. A public notice announcing the availability of the CAPER was published in the Grapevine Independent on February 13, 2026, and copies of the CAPER were made available for public review at City Hall and on the city’s website. The public comment period closes on March 2, 2026, and any comments received will be acknowledged and incorporated in the final draft of the CAPER and submitted to HUD.
City Council Staff Report - Page 2 of 2
PY 2025 was the city’s first year of the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan cycle. The city’s program is in good standing with HUD, and program administrators have continued to work on refining guidelines and procedures, assisting service providers to provide technical assistance in administering CDBG funds, and partnering with regional neighbors to improve efficiencies and identify best practices for program administration.
A summary of the accomplishments achieved in 2025 include:
• Helping 312 low-income households, including families at risk of homelessness, remain in their housing;
• Providing social services and meals for 186 seniors in the community; • Completing 18 housing rehabilitation projects on homes occupied by low-income households; and
• Providing youth mentoring services to 25 at-risk youth.
FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE
The CAPER has no fiscal impact on the city.

The table above shows the racial and ethnic distribution of persons who received assistance or services through the regular entitlement CDBG program during the 2025 program year.
The City strives to make all of its programs and activities available to eligible low- and moderate-income residents regardless of sex, race, religious background, or disability. All of the CDBG-funded public service programs, including senior services, youth services, and housing counseling, are available to residents citywide. Projects that focus on facility or infrastructure improvements are generally limited to the CDBG target area so they may benefit as many low- and moderate-income residents as possible.

Narrative
For the 2025 program year allocation, expenditures to date total $212,782.75 (net of administration). As of the draft publication date, 100 percent of funds vouchered have supported activities serving eligible residents citywide. The Planned Percentage of Allocation reflects the distribution identified in the 2025 Annual Action Plan, with 40 percent allocated to the CDBG Target Area and the remaining 60 percent allocated to activities serving residents citywide. The primary geographic area identified for use in CDBG- funded activities remains the CDBG Target Area, which consists of census tracts in which more than 50 percent of households earn less than 80 percent of area median income (AMI). Actual percentages reflect expenditures to date and will be updated in the final CAPER to reflect all program year activity.
Although the Rental Housing Inspection Program and Code Enforcement activities are no longer funded through CDBG, these services continue to take place in CDBG target areas. The investment of other public and private funds in these areas will provide a comprehensive approach to revitalization.
As shown in Map 1, much of the City, including many residential neighborhoods, is in the CDBG target area. This allows for a significant percentage of the annual CDBG allocation to be focused in these low- moderate income areas of the City.

Leveraging
Explain how federal funds leveraged additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements were satisfied, as well as how any publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that were used to address the needs identified in the plan.
Federal funds require additional regulation, labor compliance standards, and administration that can add a significant cost burden to a new affordable housing project or a rehabilitation project. For new construction and large-scale rehabilitation of affordable housing, the City prefers to pursue funding that does not significantly increase the building cost, unless there are sufficient federal funds to benefit the project’s bottom line. The CDBG allocation to the City does not add sufficient value to offset the increased costs for most of the City's affordable housing development efforts. Therefore, the City focuses CDBG funding either on projects that are already burdened with the federal reporting requirements or on projects where there is no other viable funding source and the project can be completed with the available CDBG funding.
The City’s CDBG program does not have any match requirements. The City has pursued State of California housing funds whenever appropriate and will continue to look for opportunities to leverage private and non-federal resources. The City will also begin to require that CDBG subrecipients demonstrate sufficient committed non-CDBG funding, so that projects will have the best results for the community and the low- and very low-income residents they are intended to serve. Sources may include tax credits, infrastructure infill grants, sustainable community grants, veterans housing grants, and, for the single-family owner-occupied housing rehabilitation program, CalHome funding.

The City also preserves affordable housing through code enforcement and rental inspection efforts, which ensure that all rental housing is safe and habitable. The continued success of the Rental Housing Inspection and Code Enforcement programs, run by the City’s Neighborhood Services Division.
Discuss how these outcomes will impact future annual action plans.
The City plans to address housing needs, but without significant additional resources, the City will continue to focus CDBG dollars where they will do the most good for low- and moderate-income households through better access to affordable housing, services, and public infrastructure. The City’s plan for the 2025 program year is to continue cooperating and actively engaging the County of Sacramento in its attention to homelessness issues, including chronic homelessness and near homelessness. The City will continue to contract with Community Links 211 Connect to provide housing counseling and homelessness prevention to Rancho Cordova residents. For anyone that wishes to learn more information about 211 Connect, information is accessible to Rancho Cordova residents at https://www.21.org/, by telephone, and by walk-in appointment.
Due to the continued success of Rebuilding Together Sacramento’s Critical Systems Repair project, the City will continue to fund this program in the 2026 AAP. This program has proven to be effective in assisting low-income individuals with housing repairs and directly benefiting individuals who lack alternative options to housing improvements. Additionally, this organization continues to abide by CDBG reporting and reimbursement procedures, which is a beneficial aspect to the administration costs of the CDBG program.
The City has phased out these two programs for the 2025 program year. However, blight, nuisance prevention, and mitigation of rental housing unit is still carried out in the CDBG target area by other funds.

Narrative Information
Income categories for the CDBG program are set through the HUD Metro Fair-Market-Rate Area (HMFA) formula. HUD adjusts this formula each year to address inflation and changes in household costs. The CDBG requirement is that a minimum of 70 percent of all CDBG recipients must be low to moderate income. The HMFA for Sacramento-Roseville-Arden Arcade, CA Metro Area in the 2025 program year was $128,625 for a family of four; since 80 percent of HMFA is considered low income, this calculates to $102,900 for a family of four. All persons assisted with CDBG-funded programs are required to provide income data to identify which category they fit: extremely low income (30 percent or less of HMFA), low income (31-50 percent of HMFA), moderate income (51-80 percent of HMFA), or above moderate income (81+ percent of HMFA). About 97 percent of persons assisted through CDBG funds were low- to moderate-income individuals.
Our Housing Element identifies housing solutions that solve local housing problems. It includes goals, policies, and actions to ensure development in affordable housing for families, individuals, and persons of disability. Our Consolidated Plan five-year strategy also identifies the need for affordable housing as a priority. The City of Rancho Cordova is successful at finding and applying alternative funding for past and future affordable housing projects. The Crossings at New Rancho and Crossings at Woodberry are projects that provide housing for low-income to extremely low-income households. A percentage of the housing units must be able to convert for a person with a disability. The Mather Veterans Village is another project built to meet the demand for affordable housing for veterans and those with a disability. These projects highlight the City’s continued commitment to ensure affordable housing for all.

CR-25 - Homeless and Other Special Needs 91.220(d, e); 91.320(d, e); 91.520(c) Evaluate the jurisdiction’s progress in meeting its specific objectives for reducing and ending homelessness through:
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
The City established a set of strategies and priority actions to expand homeless services and provide supportive housing opportunities to elderly persons, disabled veterans, and other persons with special needs. Since CDBG funding fluctuates from year to year, the City is seeking additional funding for programs and services aimed at assisting homeless persons and non-homeless special needs populations to supplement funding of current programs.
During the 2025 program year, the City continues to work with Community Links 2-1-1 Connect to assist homeless and special needs populations. 2-1-1 Connect provides vital homelessness prevention services and resources to individuals and families who are at imminent risk of homelessness due to housing discrimination and/or landlord disputes. They also provide a Renters Helpline, as well as Housing Counseling, to help with landlord/tenant disputes and housing discrimination cases. A collaborative approach previously between 2-1-1 Connect and Project Sentinel provides a telephone hotline, tenant education and housing assistance, and mediation services for Rancho Cordova residents in a housing crisis or dispute. The 2-1-1 Connect team deals directly with concerns about landlord/tenant disputes while fair housing issues are identified and referred to Project Sentinel. The collaborative team aims to reduce housing discrimination, promote public awareness of fair housing laws and rights, and assist persons with disabilities, and to protect residents in danger of homelessness.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City participates in the regional Continuum of Care (CoC) through the nonprofit Sacramento Steps Forward (SSF). SSF manages the Sacramento Area CoC process, which establishes a set of strategies and priority actions to expand the City’s homeless programs and services and provide supportive housing opportunities and services. The CoC is working on several system updates to improve the flow of shelters and transitional housing, which includes policy and process improvement for the County shelters, lower barriers to housing programs, and improvement to placements into the different housing services offered in the region. Rancho Cordova is also home to the Mather Community Campus, a transitional living facility that supports homeless individuals and families and includes job training, as well as housing and supportive services. The City also coordinated with the County, Mather Veterans Administration Hospital, and a competitively selected nonprofit development team to develop a comprehensive range of housing opportunities for homeless, near-homeless, and disabled veterans.
None of these efforts are funded through CDBG and are all supported through other funding sources and staff time.

Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: likely to become homeless after being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs The City contracts with Community Links 2-1-1 Connect to provide counseling to low-income households who are at risk of becoming homeless. This program is intended to prevent homelessness, and the counseling helps individuals and households to maintain housing stability. Clients receiving services also include those discharged from public institutions. Sacramento Steps Forward’s Coordinated Access System (CAS) serves as the foundational framework for accessing shelter and crucial resources within the region. 2-1- 1 Connect also provides assistance to tenants facing relocation as the result of the sale or dilapidation of their housing or other catastrophe. Residents can also call the Renters Helpline at (916) 498-1000 or 2-1-1 and get access to homeless and homelessness prevention services. Through a collaborative approach between 2-1-1 Connect and Project Sentinel, the City is able to help facilitate the provision of a telephone hotline, tenant education, housing assistance, and mediation services for Rancho Cordova residents in a housing crisis or dispute.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again
The City refers individuals to housing counseling providers that keep a detailed database of housing resources that are available to homeless and near-homeless residents. Rancho Cordova is home to the Mather Veterans Village, which provides transitional and permanent supportive housing specifically for homeless and near-homeless veterans in the region. The Mather Community Campus provides units as both a permanent and transitional living facility, as well as offering job training and supportive services for homeless individuals and families to prevent repeated patterns of homelessness. The City does not receive enough CDBG funds to support these projects solely through the CDBG program and relies on coordination with other agencies and nonprofits as well as alternative funding sources to support these projects.
Additionally, the City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element identifies a specific policy to remove potential constraints to housing for persons with disabilities:
• H.3.3 – Provide housing for special needs populations, including housing accessible for persons with disabilities (including veterans as a primary target group), persons with development ITEM 10.1.

Actions taken to address the needs of public housing
The City does not own any public housing; however, the local public housing authority, Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency (SHRA), manages public housing units across 10 properties complexes and several single-family homes throughout the City. Additionally, there are 698 affordable housing units of various sizes (1, 2, 3, and 4 bedrooms) in the City, financed by SHRA. The 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan does not include plans to construct or operate public housing. The remaining affordable housing units are operated by various nonprofits, with prominent operators including VOA, which runs components of the Mather Community Campus transitional housing program, and Mercy Housing, which operates the 100 units of permanent supportive housing at the Mather Veterans Village.
Actions taken to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership
While the City is dedicated to increasing community outreach and involving neighborhoods in the decision-making process, the City does not plan to participate in any activities to increase resident involvement in SHRA-owned and -operated public housing unless specifically asked to do so by SHRA.

Actions taken to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment. 91.220 (j); 91.320 (i) The City has undertaken a number of actions to reduce potential barriers and constraints to affordable housing and housing for special needs populations. These actions include identifying funds in support of affordable housing development and offering fee reductions, regulatory incentives, density incentives, and the operation of a home rehabilitation and repair program, as well as several other options. Details of these actions can be found in the City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element. The Housing Element includes a thorough analysis of governmental and regulatory barriers to affordable housing. The City has been aggressive in pursuing affordable housing development opportunities and has removed regulatory barriers.
Actions taken to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The need for affordable housing for lower-income households and supportive housing for persons with special needs continues to exceed available resources. The City has provided services, discussed previously in the Homeless and Other Special Needs narrative, and has worked to offer housing opportunities to underserved groups, including homeless individuals and veterans with disabilities. The City continues its active participation in County, Mather Veterans Administration Hospital, and service provider efforts to locate and develop a continuum of housing opportunities for disabled veterans. The City has continued its work with neighboring jurisdictions, such as the County of Sacramento, City of Sacramento, City of Citrus Heights, and City of Elk Grove, and agencies such as SHRA and the Sacramento Area Council of Governments, to address the regional issues that affect the needs of target- income persons and special needs populations. The goal in this effort is to reduce the burden of providing services within each jurisdiction with CDBG funding. The City has worked directly with service providers and local, state, and federal agencies (e.g., HUD and the California Department of Housing and Community Development).
The City also plans to use its CDBG funds to promote the local provision of services for low- and moderate-income residents in Rancho Cordova. Furthermore, the City will encourage area service providers to offer services in the community. In the 2025 program year, several organizations (including 211, Project Sentinel, Meals on Wheels, and Folsom Cordova Community Partnership) are being funded with CDBG funds and continuing to provide services in Rancho Cordova. The City addressed the worst- case housing needs of persons with disabilities through activities that serve the City generally. The City funded the Renters Helpline, Housing Counseling, Code Enforcement, Rental Housing Inspection Program, and Critical Repair Program during the 2025 program year:
• Renters Helpline responds to requests from Rancho Cordova residents in danger of becoming ITEM 10.1.

• Homeless Prevention is facilitated through Sacramento Steps Forward’s Coordinated Access System (CAS), which provides counseling and support services to residents at risk of homelessness or to homeless persons to aid them in securing housing.
• Code Enforcement identifies health and safety violations present in single-family housing.
• Rental Inspection Program inspects rental units for health and safety violations.
• Critical Repair Program provides home repairs to single-family homeowners.
Actions taken to reduce lead-based paint hazards. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City works with a certified lead-based paint inspector to identify lead-based paint hazards when necessary. This inspector is qualified to conduct lead-based paint identification, assessment, and clearance services to reduce lead hazard.
The City complies with the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 as implemented in 24 CFR 35 Subpart B. Compliance includes the following strategy:
Housing Rehabilitation: All housing rehabilitation activities funded under this plan will assess lead hazard risk before proceeding, including the planned Emergency Repair Grant Program. This applies to any work on structures constructed prior to January 1, 1978. The work will comply with the appropriate level of protection indicated in 24 CFR 35.100. All work on homes constructed prior to January 1, 1978, will have a lead hazard risk assessment conducted as described in 24 CFR 35.110. At the completion of any prescribed lead hazard reduction activities, a clearance examination is required as described in 24 CFR
35.110.
When needed, Rebuilding Together Sacramento conducts lead-based paint inspections through a contractor.
Actions taken to reduce the number of poverty-level families. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City continues to fund public services intended to help poverty-level families. The City’s anti-poverty strategy is based on revitalizing Rancho Cordova’s existing housing stock to provide safe and decent places to live, and on supporting the services of social services agencies that promote income and housing stability. The City’s strategy also includes supportive services for target-income residents, including senior and youth services. For example, the City funded 2-1-1 Connect for the 2025 program year, as 2-1-1 Connect provides vital services and resources to families who are homeless or are at imminent risk of homelessness, and Rebuilding Sacramento Together, a program that helps low- income homeowners rehabilitate necessary health- and safety-related issues in their homes in order to ITEM 10.1.

The City also continued to fund other anti-poverty programs, such as the Senior Nutrition program offered by Meals on Wheels and the Folsom Cordova Community Partnership’s Group Mentoring Initiative for Youth populations and their families. This latter program supports youth and enhances community involvement through intensive one-on-one youth mentoring to help improve economic opportunities for low-income youth in Rancho Cordova. In November 2020, Rancho Cordova voters approved Measure R, a half-cent sales tax measure, which will generate an estimated $12 million revenue for the City’s general fund. Funds may be used to attract jobs and address homelessness.
In November 2014, Rancho Cordova voters approved Measure H, a half-cent sales tax measure, which has generated revenue for the City’s general fund. The local fund is called the Community Enhancement Fund and provides funding for projects administered by individual residents, organizations, businesses, and community partners who are interested in enhancing the Rancho Cordova community. During the 2025 CDBG program year, there were several Community Enhancement Fund projects, many of which will reduce the number of poverty-level families. Projects include, but are not limited to, on-site youth career centers, senior nutritional support, youth meal services, food pantry improvements, home repairs, and a winter homeless shelter.
Actions taken to develop institutional structure. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) The City developed a monitoring system to ensure that the activities carried out in furtherance of the AAP are done so in a timely manner in accordance with the federal monitoring requirements of 24 CFR 570.501 and 2 CFR 200 and all other applicable laws, regulations, policies, and sound management and accounting practices. The objectives of the monitoring plan are described in more detail in the Consolidated Plan.
The City’s Community Development Department is responsible for the management, implementation, and monitoring of Consolidated Plan documents, including the AAP and all other subsequent documents related to the implementation of the CDBG program.
City staff will administer the programs and activities funded with CDBG funds. These staff members will work with the individual City divisions, such as Public Works, as well as partner districts, such as Folsom Cordova Unified School District, to develop procedures and coordinate the administration of programs that will be carried out by these divisions. Designated staff will also work closely with the providers of CDBG-funded services and programs that are not carried out by the City.
Actions taken to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. 91.220(k); 91.320(j)
The City strives to provide training opportunities and technical assistance to grant subrecipients and ITEM 10.1.

works to establish best practices. The City’s goal is for all subrecipients to update their programs to integrate industry best practices into the day-to-day and long-term activities of programs. In addition, the City is continuing its initiative to coordinate activities with neighboring cities, especially in regard to responding to fair housing-related efforts. Coordinated efforts include joint monitoring of common service providers, standardizing reporting requirements and forms to encourage efficiency and Consistency and sharing information from workshops.
During the 2025 program year, the City implemented contracts with local service organizations that provide assistance to senior/elderly households, households at imminent risk of homelessness, and special needs populations. These subrecipients have all received CDBG funding in the past from the City.
City staff and City Council have realized the continued need for these services.
The City will continue its work with neighboring jurisdictions, such as the County of Sacramento, City of Sacramento, City of Citrus Heights, and City of Elk Grove, and agencies such as SHRA and the Sacramento Area Council of Governments, to address the regional issues that affect the needs of target- income persons and special needs populations. The City also intends to work directly with service providers and local, state, and federal agencies (e.g., HUD and the California Department of Housing and Community Development).
Identify actions taken to overcome the effects of any impediments identified in the jurisdictions analysis of impediments to fair housing choice. 91.520(a) On June 21, 2021, the City of Rancho Cordova adopted the 2021–2029 Housing Element. The Housing Element includes an analysis of vacant and underused land in the City that can be developed into housing for low-, moderate-, and above moderate-income housing. It also contains an analysis of potential governmental and nongovernmental constraints to housing development in the City as well as policies and goals the City should take to produce more affordable housing. During the 2025 program year, the City partnered with Project Sentienl to provide fair housing and landlord/tenant services. The City is also a partner in the Renters Helpline, a service offered by 2-1-1 Connect that is designed to determine if calls they receive represent a fair housing issue or a landlord/tenant or life crisis issue. 2-1- 1 Connect staff is trained to answer calls and make accurate determinations. In the City of Rancho Cordova, the Renters Helpline assisted (2-1-1) assisted 312 individuals and Project Sentinel assited 11 persons between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2025.
The Analysis of Impediments report identified issues with disproportionate housing needs, segregation and integration, and access to opportunity for residents in the City of Rancho Cordova.
Disproportionate Housing Needs
A portion of new construction homes for sale in the city fall in the moderate price range compared to the region.

CR-40 - Monitoring 91.220 and 91.230
Describe the standards and procedures used to monitor activities carried out in furtherance of the plan and used to ensure long-term compliance with requirements of the programs involved, including minority business outreach and the comprehensive planning requirements
City staff communicated with the subrecipients’ staff responsible for each activity prior to the beginning of the program year. All subrecipients were informed of the obligations to collect the required information on income, household composition, and race and ethnicity. Staff provided technical assistance to subrecipients throughout the year as needed. During the 2025 program year, City staff performed desk monitoring to examine the progress the subrecipients were making toward performance targets. Subrecipients are required to report the demographics of their service population on a quarterly basis, as well as additional supporting information such as general ledger and program accounting documents. Each subrecipient agreement contains provisions for reductions to or suspensions of payments in the event that targets are not being met (without valid reason) or past performance issues have not been resolved.
The City has continued to emphasize the importance for subrecipients to gather complete and accurate information on the persons and/or households they serve, and to regularly report their progress. The City requires all applicable CDBG subrecipients to comply with minority/women business enterprise (MBE/WBE) requirements when procuring their activities. This is written into their subrecipient agreements. At each year’s Notice of Funding Availability meeting, staff informs potential CDBG subrecipients that they will be subject to a monitoring every year that they receive CDBG funds.
Additionally, for all construction projects that require adherence to Davis-Bacon, staff conducts a labor compliance review to ensure the project’s procurement has followed MBE/WBE standards. In September 2025, CDBG staff conducted a monitoring of Folsom Cordova Community Partnership (FCCP).
The subrecipient was notified of the findings and given adequate time to address and clarify the issue.
Staff also indicated that if corrective action was not resolved, it could jeopardize future application approvals and awards. The CDBG program has successfully met expenditure deadlines in years past and is on target to meet its deadlines for the 2025 program year. The City is also current on quarterly and semi-annual reports due to HUD.

ITEM 12.1.
DATE: March 2, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Darcy Goulart, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: DISCUSSION REGARDING HISTORICAL BUILDINGS AND SITES
INVENTORY WITHIN THE CITY OF RANCHO CORDOVA
RECOMMENDATION
Receive information and provide direction.
RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
No formal action will be taken. Staff is requesting direction from the City Council on work efforts for the identification and preservation of historical buildings and sites within the city boundaries.
BACKGROUND
The existing General Plan includes an element dedicated to the preservation of the city's various cultural and historical resources. Preserving the history of the community and recognizing and celebrating cultural diversity contribute to the city's sense of place. This discussion will focus on the historical resources that the city has and exploring potential next steps for preservation based upon General Plan Policies and Action items. At the end of the discussion, the Council will be asked to provide direction to staff on next steps.
DISCUSSION
There is a wealth of historic resources, including sites and buildings, artifacts, and memorabilia associated with Native Americans, gold mining, historic railroad operations, the Pony Express, Mather Field, and rocket testing at Aerojet. Historic resources, including sites and buildings, could have designation as a historic place on the National Register of Historic Places, as a State Historic Resource or State Historic Landmark, or have a significant historic value to the community. To be listed at the federal or state level, there are specific criteria that have to be met. If it is determined by those federal and state entities that a site or building does not meet the criteria, the request will likely be denied. However, a designation of local or community significance does not have strict guidelines to follow, but does need a method to preserve the resources if deemed significant. The General Plan identified eight (8) structures within the Planning Area that are of important value to the community. These include:
City Council Staff Report - Page 2 of 3
• A segment of the Sacramento Valley Railroad alignment that extended from Sacramento to Folsom near Folsom Boulevard, which highlights the development of communication and transportation facilities in the Rancho Cordova area and the region. • The former location of Fifteen-Mile House, a station of the Central Overland Pony Express, which is near the intersection of White Rock Road and Sunrise Boulevard. This site also highlights the development of communication and transportation facilities in the city area and the region.
• Pfingst Realty Company Building at 9878 Folsom Boulevard, which highlights the economic (commercial and agricultural) development of the city. It was built in 1860 and served as a train station for the area, being called Routier Station. • The American River Grange Hall at 2720 Kilgore Road, which also highlights the economic (commercial and agricultural) development of the city. This site was listed on the California Historic Landmarks list in 1996.
• The Horn Road house
• Hagan Park railroad
• Mills Community
• Kilgore Cemetery
Goal CHR.1 of the General Plan focuses on identifying and preserving the history of Rancho Cordova for future generations. Some of the action items to satisfy this goal include collection of historical data such as oral histories, genealogical research, collection of artifacts, photographs, memorabilia, etc. Those efforts will likely be ongoing for many years to come and added to what has already been collected by residents and organizations within the city. However, efforts to preserve the existing structures already identified or adding new ones to the list is an action item that still needs to be completed. Actions items within the General Plan to achieve the goal of preserving historic resources include:
• Compile a thorough record of the city’s incorporation, including records, documents, photos, and artifacts.
• Develop and regularly update a comprehensive historic resources inventory, coordinating with other agencies as necessary. The inventory will contain a list of all locally historically significant properties, as well as historic archaeological and paleontological resources in the Planning Area and a map depicting their locations. • Pursue recognition of all eligible historic properties by the National Register of Historic Places and California Register of Historical Resources. • Improve and interpret Kilgore Cemetery. Interpreting the cemetery will include determining who is buried in the older portion of the site and increasing public awareness of the cemetery’s significance.
• Consider establishing review procedures for remodeling and reconstruction of buildings and other structures.
City Council Staff Report - Page 3 of 3
DIRECTION AND NEXT STEPS
Turning the above actions into next steps looks like a few different options if the Council has interest at this time in pursuing the identification and preservation of historically significant properties. Staff would suggest that this initial work effort focus on the preservation of existing structures identified in the General Plan, as well as any additional buildings or sites that have local significance. In the process, if any buildings are deemed to have national or state significance, the proper steps would be taken for listing on those respective registries. These identified efforts would implement three of the action items. However, staff has provided two other options that are listed below.
1. Council could direct staff to come up with a work plan that implements all the General Plan action items identified for preservation of historical buildings and sites.
2. Council could concur with staff's suggestion, which is to focus on the preservation of those structures already identified, as well as any additional ones as directed by council or through the work effort.
3. Council could take no action at this time and ask staff to come back at a later date for consideration.
Based on direction provided by the City Council, staff would obtain the services of a consultant that has knowledge and expertise in historical building and site identification and preservation.
As part of the direction, staff would also request that Council identify any other buildings or sites that the Council would like included in the effort.
FISCAL IMPACT AND FUNDING SOURCE
If direction is provided to move forward with a work effort, there will be an additional cost to the General Fund that is not currently allocated in the adopted budget. It is unknown at this time what the work effort will cost, and it will require the assistance of a professional consulting firm.
A funding source will need to be identified prior to entering into a professional services agreement.

DATE: March 2, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Kim Juran, Administrative Services Director
SUBJECT: FISCAL YEAR 2025-26 MID-YEAR FINANCIAL REPORT
RECOMMENDATION
Receive the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Mid-Year Financial Report.
RESULT OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
The Fiscal Year 2025-26 Mid-Year Financial Report provides the City Council with the City's financial performance as of the mid-year point for the current fiscal year.
BACKGROUND
The City Council approved Operating Budget serves as the annual plan and resource allocation that guides and ensures implementation of city council policies and priorities. The budget implements the vision and direction for the range of services that meet the needs of the community.
The Fiscal Year 2025-26 operating budget is the first year of the two-year budget adopted in June 2025.
The mid-year financial review analyzes city finances at the halfway point in the fiscal year to gauge overall performance. While the benchmark of the mid-year financial review is an analysis of revenues and expenditures through December 31, 2025, it is necessary to continue to analyze the finances through the February timeframe due to the delay in the receipt of major city revenues such as property tax and sales tax.
City finances appear to be trending mostly as expected and in line with the budget at the mid- year point. Revenues continue to demonstrate stability, although a slowdown in overall revenue growth is being observed and some anticipated declines in key revenues are occurring as expected. The attached 2025-26 Mid-Year Financial Report as of December 31, 2025, offers a detailed summary of revenue and expenditure for the General Fund, the city's primary operating fund.
GENERAL FUND
The General Fund serves as the primary operating fund for the city, supporting essential services such as public safety, neighborhood services, and community development. It is
City Council Staff Report - Page 2 of 3
funded primarily through revenue sources like property taxes, sales taxes, and various fees.
The General Fund budget is a reflection of the city's priorities, with allocations made to ensure the delivery of critical services while maintaining fiscal responsibility.
REVENUES
Property Taxes represent the largest revenue source for the city, comprising 35% of the 2025- 26 general fund revenue budget. Due to the delayed nature on which the property tax roll is calculated, current year property tax figures represent assessed value increases captured in prior fiscal years. The city saw a 9.5% increase in its assessed value in FY 25-26, the highest increase in Sacramento County by nearly 3%. This significant increase in property tax is helping to offset declines in some other key city revenues.
Sales Tax is the second-largest revenue source for the city's general fund at 25% of the revenue budget. This amount does not include the city's two ½ cent Community Enhancement & Investment Fund sales tax measures that are accounted for separate from the rest of the city's general fund operating budget per City Council direction. The city’s 1% Bradley Burns sales tax is anticipated to be at its lowest level since pre-COVID, down by approximately $3.6 million from its high in Fiscal Year 2023-24, and is anticipated to end the year around $700,000 below the budget.
The Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT), also known as the hotel/motel tax, is derived from a 12% surcharge applied to room rates in the city's hotels. TOT revenue contributes 4% to the total General Fund revenue. The city’s TOT revenues have been more unpredictable in recent years with the closure of one hotel and reduced overall occupancy, which led to the conservative budget estimate of $3.6 million in the current year. That said, current year numbers are up 2.7% over the prior year and are on pace to exceed the budget at year-end.
The Utility Users Tax (UUT) is a voter-approved tax applied to utility bills, including electricity, gas, water, and telecommunications, contributing 5% to the total General Fund Revenue. UUT revenues are currently trending in line with the anticipated budget amount.
The Federal Reserve's series of interest rate increases over the past two years, aimed at curbing inflation, have resulted in higher returns to the city's investment accounts. Based on current projections, it is anticipated that interest earnings will exceed the budget at year-end, offsetting revenue losses in other categories. A main theme of the Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget was an anticipated slowdown in the new production residential home market and the resulting decline in residential permit revenue. As predicted, new production home permit activity was down by nearly 50% over the same time in the prior fiscal year. This level of slowdown is in line with budget expectations. Commercial building permit activity started the fiscal year off stronger than anticipated with permit revenue already surpassing the budget at the halfway point. In total, building permit revenue is expected to meet or exceed the budget at year-end.
EXPENDITURES
The majority of expenditures for FY 25-26 are falling within or under budget. The city’s largest expenditure is its contract with the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office for the provision of public safety services, which is approximately 37% of the General Fund budget. This contract is currently trending to come in right around budget, barring any unforeseen changes in the second half of the fiscal year.
City Council Staff Report - Page 3 of 3
Overall, general fund expenditures are currently expected to end the year within the budget amount.
COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT & INVESTMENT FUND
The City of Rancho Cordova's two voter-approved add-on sales tax measures, Measures H and R, are accounted for separate from the general fund analysis above. In Fiscal Year 2025-26, the city budgeted Measure H and R sales tax revenues to come in at $11.9 million each based on estimates at that time. Measure H and R sales tax revenues are currently performing better than expected and are currently expected to exceed the budget by approximately $500,000 each. As a reminder, the manner in which local add-on sales tax is collected differs from the 1% Bradley Burns sales tax that was discussed earlier, which is the reason why these sales tax revenues are performing better than expected.
