2. ADD SECTION 32 pertaining to Synthetic Turf, as follows:

Svnthetic Turf
a. Brand
At Tenant's request, the Landlord has issued a change order to change the softball fields from grass outfield and dirt infield and warning tracks to synthetic turf.

The manufacturer and product mutually selected by Tenant and Landlord is FieldTurf, Series 2 (the "Synthetic Turf').
b. Purpose
The reason for this change is to extend the time when fields may be used, to provide a more consistent and uniform playing surface, to open the park sooner, to reduce maintenance costs, and to allow other sports to occur on the fields during the winter.
c. Scope of Change
This change does the following - eliminates most of the underground drainage systems, irrigation systems, stolons and root zone mix, and substitutes therefore base rock, Synthetic Turf, larger side drains, and three sprinklers for each infield area.
d. Warranty
The manufacturer's warranty for the Synthetic Turf is to be for eight years. e. Replacement
Tenant hereby agrees to replace or repair damage to the Synthetic Turf at the end of its useful life or if damaged.
f. Payment for the Turf
The estimated cost of the change order is $1,106,000, including contingency. The Landlord shall pay the entire cost of the change order for the Synthetic Turf. The Landlord has agreed to allocate $240,000 of the cost from the Project construction contingency. Tenant is to fund the balance of the cost of $866,000 with payments to Landlord occurring at the rate of $86,600 per year for ten years, payable as provided in Section 32(g) below.

Amendment No. 2 - Sports Park Lease Page 2 of 10
Packet Pg. 554 Attachment: Previous Staff Report - July 29, 2024 (9.6(a)--Short-Term Operations for the Redding Sports Park) g. Supplemental Lease Payments
Tenant shall make forty (40) supplemental lease payments, with each such payment to be made forty-five (45) days after the end of the applicable calendar quarter of each of the first ten (10) Lease Years (as defined in the Lease) commencing with respect to the first calendar quarter of the first full Lease Year.

Subject only to potential increase as provided in Section 32(h) below, the supplemental quarterly lease payment will be $21,650 ($86,600 ! 4). The supplemental payments are over and above any other lease payment. h. Actual Cost Higher Than Estimate
In the event the actual cost to convert to Synthetic Turf fields is higher than the estimate, Tenant and Landlord shall split the increase equally up to a maximum increase of $200,000, or $100,000 each. If the final cost is higher than the estimate in Section 32(f) above, the quarterly payment shall be adjusted accordingly up to a maximum of $2,500 per quarter to be added to the amount in Section 32(g) above. This is a disputed work item with the General Contractor.

3. REPLACE EXHIBIT 1, Lease Area
The Plot of Land, Exhibit 1, is hereby replaced in its entirety with the drawing labeled Exhibit 1, Lease Area, Redding Sports Park, Big League Dreams, attached hereto.

INTERNAL COMMUNICATION
DATE March 21 2013
TO Pamela Mize City Clerk
FROM Barry Tippin Electric Utility Director
SUBJECT Amendment to Lease with Big League Dreams
At the City Council meeting of September 20 2011 the Council approved an allowance for Big League Dreams BLD to access the stadium lighting electric rate using an 80 20 rule instead of a
requirement to make changes to the facilities meter system The Council report calls for an amendment of the lease to achieve the desired result Your office recently requested a
copy of the amendment After thorough research I have
determined that an amendment was not done however after a review of the situation with the City Attorney s office it has been determined an amendment is not required It appears that staff initially felt the amendment was necessary to allow BLD access to the electric rate and may have found that it wasn t necessary to achieve the Council s direction The staff member who led this effort no longer works for the City so I was unable to confirm this The purpose of this memo is to provide documentation to complete the City Clerk s file c Rick Duvernay City Attorney

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Information only.

Background/Analysis
On July 17, 2018, the Council authorized the Mayor to send a letter to the Board Chair of the Bella Vista Water District (District) regarding water supply needs for new developments within the City limits and situated within the District’s water service area. At the same meeting, the City Council (Council) directed staff to work with the District to explore water supply solutions during water shortage years in which the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) may curtail water supply allocations. The letter was sent and staff subsequently met with the District and negotiated the Water Supply Augmentation Agreement (Agreement), Contract No. C-7970, dated March 18, 2019. The intent was to facilitate new development while ensuring the City of Redding’s (City) Water Utility is not impacted financially and still maintaining the ability to meet all existing and future customer demand requirements.

On May 1, 2023, the City received a letter from the District terminating the agreement. During the severe drought of 2021-22, the Reclamation implemented a historical zero percent water allocation to the District. This allocation demonstrated the agreement did not provide the water supply shortage benefits to the District as expected.

At issue are supply curtailments imposed by Reclamation during water shortage years. Most of the District’s water supply comes from Central Valley Project (CVP) water through a water service contract with Reclamation. Although the District has sufficient contractual water entitlements to supply new developments, Reclamation may implement its municipal and industrial (M&I) shortage policy and severely curtail water supply allocations to CVP contracts during shortage years. These curtailments force the District to impose drought management measures on existing customers, including the more than 3,000 existing M&I customers within the City limits. Because of this potential for impact on existing customers, the District must be MEETING DATE: August 20, 2024

The District’s Will Serve Policy conditions new developments of more than four units within its service area to augment the District’s water supply as mitigation for California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) identified impacts until the new water supply demand becomes part of the District’s base supply. Previous knowledge was new customers are included in the base supply after three unconstrained water years as determined by Reclamation. However, during the drought of 2022-23 with a zero percent allocation, this philosophy proved irrelevant for future water needs, hence the District’s termination of the Agreement.

This Will Serve Policy forces developers to seek and secure adequate water supply or not move forward with the project. Water supply rights are very limited, extremely complex, and can be very expensive. This may prove difficult for local developers to secure. Several current and proposed developments within the City, including the Bethel Campus on Collyer Drive, Oasis North Subdivision and the Reserve Subdivision on Oasis Road, and Phoenix Charter School on Shasta View Drive near Simpson University are facing this condition.

The City is in a better position to supply existing customers during shortage years due to concerted investment in a variety of water supply sources, including Reclamation contracts, groundwater well development, and agreements with other agencies. Sources of water include 31,000 acre-feet of surface water and the ability to produce approximately 11,000 acre-feet of groundwater annually. The City’s demand in 2023 was just under 22,000 acre-feet.

The City and the District have met on several occasions to discuss potential solutions and ideas for future water allocations to help facilitate development and economic vitality in the City.

Possible solutions include a new water augmentation agreement, detachment/attachment of water service areas, and capital improvement needs.

A detachment/attachment process through Reclamation would trade portions of our respective water service areas. The City would enlarge its current service boundary in the overlap area within the City limits that is currently served by the District. A feasibility analysis needs to be completed to determine which parcels could be served by the City and which cannot due to complexities with existing infrastructure and varying pressure zones. Undeveloped parcels near the current boundaries would be more likely candidates for attachment/detachment than those further from the City’s existing water infrastructure.

Council Priority/City Manager Goals
• Communication and Transparency - “Improve the quality of communication with the public and City employees to enhance knowledge and increase transparency to improve public trust.”

SHORTAGE YEAR WATER SUPPLY AUGMENTATION AGREEMENT

BETWEEN

THE CITY OF REDDING
AND

BELLA VISTA WATER DISTRICT
THIS AGREEMENT is made at Redding, California, by and between THE CITY OF REDDING, a Municipal Corporation (" CITY"), whose address is 777 Cypress Avenue, Redding, Ca. 96001 and BELLA VISTA WATER DISTRICT, (" DISTRICT"), a California Water District, whose address is 11368 East Stillwater Way, Redding, CA 96003, for Shortage Year Water Supply Augmentation Agreement (" Agreement").

PURPOSE: To augment the Bella Vista Water District' s water supply in shortage years in order to mitigate water supply impacts associated with new developments occurring within the CITY and served by the DISTRICT as a result of the implementation of the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation' s Central Valley Project Municipal and Industrial Water Shortage Policy ( WSP), Guidelines and Procedures.

BACKGROUND: The DISTRICT was created as the Cow Creek Unit of the Trinity Division of the Central Valley Project ( CVP) and is highly reliant upon water supply from the CVP to meet the water needs of its customers within the District' s boundary. The U. S. Bureau of Reclamation ( USBR) announced its final CVP Municipal and Industrial ( M& I) Water Shortage y Policy ( WSP) with a signed Record of Decision on November 25, 2015 and issued WSP Guidelines and Procedures effective February 1, 2017, hereby incorporated by reference. New growth and development within both the CITY and DISTRICT service area results in newly created demands for water. With the implementation of the WSP, new water demands are not reflected in the District' s Historical Use that results in supply shortage impacts to the District' s existing customers until the new demands are fully reflected into the DISTRICT' s Historical Use following three years unconstrained by supply shortage from the date of connection to DISTRICT' s public water system. The CITY has sufficient groundwater resources in the short term to augment the DISTRICT supply for growth within the CITY until Historical Use is established for each development.

Packet Pg. 578 Attachment: C-7970 - Agreement - 2019 - Bella Vista Water District (9.11(i)--Update on the Bella Vista Water District and City of Redding A. The DISTRICT' s Will Serve Policy requires certain residential and commercial development to augment DISTRICT water supply for their development prior to meter placement as mitigation for California Environmental Quality Act identified impacts until the new demands are fully reflected into the DISTRICT' s Historical Use.

B. To meet this requirement, an alternative supply of water must be secured by the development entity.

C. Water supply rights are very limited, complex and can be excessively expensive.

D. The CITY has developed groundwater wells to provide for current and future CITY demands. A limited amount of groundwater supply may be available to augment new development within the CITY and served by the DISTRICT during water shortage years.

E. The CITY maintains distribution system interties with the DISTRICT that allows the transfer of groundwater between CITY and DISTRICT infrastructure.

F. It is in the best interest of the CITY to encourage new development that provides a benefit to and meets the needs of the community.

G. The parties hereto have determined that it would be in their best interests to allow the DISTRICT to purchase groundwater from the CITY and receive metered delivery through an existing intertie during CVP shortage allocation years as defined in the WSP until the new connection is fully reflected in the DISTRICT' s Historical Use as defined in the WSP. This agreement will allow the DISTRICT to purchase groundwater in CVP shortage allocation years to offset impacts to the DISTRICT' s existing customers.

H. The parties hereto further determine that it would be in their mutual best interests to set forth their respective rights, duties, costs and obligations concerning shortage water year purchases from the CITY in a written agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

1. Definitions: For purposes of the Agreement the following definitions apply:, Historical Use" is the average quantity of CVP municipal and industrial water put to beneficial use pursuant to the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation' s CVP M& I WSP and WSP Guidelines and Procedures.

Supply shortage" is limited to CVP supply allocation shortage years and shall have the same meaning as Condition of Shortage pursuant to the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation' s CVP M& I WSP and WSP Guidelines and Procedures.

New Development" is any development in which entitlements are granted by the City after the effective date of this Agreement or any development that received entitlements prior to this Packet Pg. 579 Attachment: C-7970 - Agreement - 2019 - Bella Vista Water District (9.11(i)--Update on the Bella Vista Water District and City of Redding Agreement but has not yet made a request for connection to the District System. This includes residential developments of four units or more and any commercial development

2. Development: The DISTRICT will issue Will Serve letters for new development within CITY limits and served by the DISTRICT pursuant to this Agreement. The letters will reference that the development is contingent upon the provisions in this Agreement. The DISTRICT will maintain an accounting of the developments subject to this Agreement noting the location, property owner, developer, date of development, number of unconstrained years and dates since development, and the allocation of augmented water supply in Acre- Ft per year. The DISTRICT will provide this accounting to the CITY annually prior to each new water year as defined by USBR. Through separate agreement, the DISTRICT will secure a deposit from each development sufficient to secure payment for the quantity of water supply as defined in Section 4 of this Agreement.

3. Notice: Prior to delivery of any groundwater pursuant to this Agreement, the District shall notify the CITY that a supply shortage exists and that groundwater delivery is desired; the projected duration and delivery rate of water and the anticipated quantity of water to be delivered. Upon receipt of the request, the CITY' s Director of Public Works or designee, shall make a determination as to whether such delivery can be accommodated as requested or revised to better accommodate their system constraints and shall inform the DISTRICT within 14 business days of its decision. The DISTRICT will confirm with the CITY, in writing, the specific conditions concerning the water delivery schedule at least 24- hours in advance.

4. Quantity: The supply mitigation quantity in any given water year shall be calculated as the average historical annual water use ( Historical Use) multiplied by the CVP allocation e. g. average historical use x percent USBR water year allocation).

For a single family detached dwelling on less than two acres ( residential unit), the average annual unconstrained Historical Use of 0. 5 acre-feet/ year will be assumed. For developments other than residential units, empirical data for similar commercial, residential or public institutional service will be utilized to determine average annual unconstrained Historical Use.

The maximum amount of water provided to any new development during a supply shortage year is 75% of their historical use. For example, to prevent impacting existing customers during CVP shortage years, DISTRICT will need to supply up to 0. 375 AcreFt of water per supply shortage year for each single family detached dwelling on less than two acres ( 0. 5 Acre- Ft* 75% CVP Allocation). Conservatively it is assumed that each new development will become part of DISTRICT' s Historical Use within 10 years.

Under a worst case, it is assumed that seven ( 7) of these years would be constrained water years and the remaining three ( 3) would be unconstrained. Using the example above, this results in a total water volume per residential unit of up to 2. 625 Acre- Ft.

Packet Pg. 580 Attachment: C-7970 - Agreement - 2019 - Bella Vista Water District (9.11(i)--Update on the Bella Vista Water District and City of Redding

0.375 Acre- Ft x 7 years constrained years) over the 10- year period. An example calculation is provided as Exhibit A.

The DISTRICT will enter into a separate agreement with each new development to secure a deposit in an amount equal to the estimated 10- year water supply at the cost of water to be purchased from the CITY noted in Section 7 of this Agreement. The CITY will supply a maximum of 500 Acre- Ft per year under this Agreement. Only parcels located within the CITY limits are eligible for water supply allocations.

5. Duration of Delivery: Water deliveries pursuant to this Agreement are limited to the quantity required to offset supply shortage impacts from new development during the supply shortage and delivered at a mutually agreeable delivery rate and duration until the new development demands are met for the supply shortage year and shall be continued annually until such time as the new connection is reflected in the DISTRICT' s Historical Use following three years unconstrained by supply shortage.

6. Intertie Point: Existing Intertie points between the parties to this Agreement already exist at 700 Canby Road, 1431 Edgewood Drive, and at the intersection of Old Alturas Road and Abernathy Lane as shown on Exhibit B. The intertie location utilized for this agreement will be at the Canby Road location due to the pressure differential and existing pressure reducing valve unless system conditions require the use of an alternative intertie.

This Agreement in no way modifies, alters or otherwise has any bearing on the Intertie Agreement between the CITY and the DISTRICT.

7. Costs: The CITY, pursuant to the delivery of water under this Agreement shall be entitled to compensation for actual water supplied pursuant to this Agreement, which shall be billed at the then current applicable retail volumetric rate ( e. g. commercial, residential).

8. Indemnification: The DISTRICT receiving water pursuant to this Agreement hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the CITY, its directors, officials, officers, employees, agents and volunteers, and each and every one of them, from any and all claims of any nature whatsoever arising from or relating to, directly or indirectly, negligent performance of this Agreement by the CITY, or relating to the quality of water delivered pursuant to this Agreement.

9. Termination: This Agreement shall commence on the date of signing hereto and shall continue until such time as either party determines in its sole and absolute discretion that the delivery of water contemplated herein would not be in its best interests. Either party can, at any time, provide written notice to the other party that this Agreement is to be terminated on the date and time provided in the written notice. Once terminated, no additional service connections will be added to this agreement prospectively from the date of termination. However, the CITY will continue to provide mitigation supply water for connections previously agreed to, until such time as they are considered part of the Packet Pg. 581 Attachment: C-7970 - Agreement - 2019 - Bella Vista Water District (9.11(i)--Update on the Bella Vista Water District and City of Redding DISTRICTs Historical Use following three years unconstrained by supply shortage. This Agreement shall terminate on the date and time provided in the written notice; however, that any unpaid financial obligations owing to either party shall survive termination of this Agreement and be payable in accordance with their terms. In consideration of the water supply shortages experienced by the DISTRICT, it is the intent of both parties that this Agreement is a short term solution and the DISTRICT will pursue alternative reliable water supply sources to serve its customers through negotiated means or development of new supplies through Master Planning and Capital Improvement Plan efforts.

10. Disputes: If any action or arbitration is commenced to enforce any of the terms or conditions herein, or to enforce collection of monies due pursuant to this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees and costs.

11. Date of Agreement: The date of this agreement shall be the date it is signed by the second party to sign.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize the Mayor to sign and send a letter to the Board Chair of the Bella Vista Water District District) regarding District water supply for new development within the City of Redding; and direct staff to work with the District to explore water supply solutions that facilitate new development in the City.

Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact in sending the proposed letter. However, some staff time will be required to develop feasible solutions, and some preliminary engineering may be required. The total cost is expected to be less than $ 20,000 and funded with current year budgeted resources in the Water Utility.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) could choose to not send the letter and require development to secure the necessary water entitlements. The Council may also provide staff with alternative direction.

Background/ Analysis
Land development projects within the City of Redding ( City) and located within the Bella Vista Water District (District) service area are experiencing challenges related to water supply. Most of the District’ s water supply comes from Central Valley Project ( CVP) water through a water service contract with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation ( Bureau). Although the District has sufficient contractual water entitlements to supply new developments, the Bureau may implement its municipal and industrial (M&I) shortage policy and severely curtail water supply allocations to CVP contracts during shortage years.

Re: 4.11(j)--Letter to Board Chair of the BVWD Page 2
These curtailments may force the District to impose drought management measures on existing customers including the more than 2900 M&I customers within the City of Redding limits.

Because of this potential for impact on existing customers, the District must be prudent in allowing new development within their service area and place conditions on service to new projects accordingly.

The City’ s Municipal Code Section 17.60.080 requires a “ Will Serve” letter be secured by the subdivider prior to approval of a tentative map for subdivisions located within a water district outside the City’ s water service area. Because of the risk of reductions noted above and the related potentially significant impacts to existing District customers as identified by the required California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA) analysis, the District adopted a new Will Serve Policy (Policy) in October 2014. The Policy conditions new developments of more than four units within its service area to augment the District’s water supply as mitigation for CEQA identified impacts until the development becomes part of the District’ s base supply. New customers are included in the base supply after three unconstrained water years (March through February) as determined by the Bureau. This Policy forces developers to seek and secure adequate water supply or not move forward with the project. Water supply rights are very limited, extremely complex, and can be very expensive. This may prove difficult for local developers to secure. Several current developments within the City including the Bethel Campus off Collyer, Seven Bridges off Oasis Road, and Ridgewood Estates off Hollow Lane are facing this condition. Some of the larger developments including Bethel have been successful in securing sufficient supply from entities with unused water entitlements like the McConnell Foundation; however, the smaller developments may have difficulty.

To help facilitate development and economic vitality within the City, it may be prudent for the City to engage in discussions with the District about the potential for augmenting the District’ s supply for new developments in the City until additional historical use entitlements are established. The City is in a somewhat better position to supply existing customers during shortage years due to the concerted investment in many different sources of water supply including Bureau contracts, groundwater well development and agreements with other agencies.

Many of these sources are much less constrained by State or Federal agencies than the CVP water. During shortage years, the City is not in a good position to make available its limited CVP water because of Bureau curtailments to the Buckeye Service Contract. The City mitigates these reductions by transferring as much project water from the Sacramento River to the Buckeye Water Treatment Plant as possible. Without these transfers, the City’s ability to provide water to the entire City is at risk. However, there may be groundwater alternatives where the City could partner with the District to invest cooperatively and allow transfers of treated groundwater through system interties, new distribution lines or creative contractual agreements. To explore this potential it is appropriate for staff to seek direction and permission from the Council to offer City groundwater resources to the District for new developments within the City limits.

RE: New Development within the City of Redding
Dear Mr. Nash,
The intent of this letter is to inform you of the City’s desire to partner with the Bella Vista Water District District) to ensure adequate water supply is available to facilitate new development within the City of Redding. In particular, to serve City of Redding residents located within District service area. As you may know, the District’ s Will Serve Policy (Policy) requires developers to mitigate potential impacts to existing customers by augmenting District water supply by seeking and securing water source rights until the development is established in the District’ s base water supply as determined by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation. This requirement may prove extremely difficult for the development community due to the limited availability and complex nature of water rights.

To help mitigate these issues and facilitate new development and economic vitality in our community, the City of Redding Council has directed our staff to work with the District in developing water supply augmentation solutions so development may continue. As is the District, the City is also affected by reduced water allocations imposed by the Bureau according to their municipal and industrial shortage policy. Therefore surface water solutions are challenging. However, there may be groundwater solutions that prove viable and beneficial to the City, the District and the community.

The City certainly understands the pressure and obligation the District has to its existing customers during water shortage years. Many of these customers are City of Redding residents. But we also must balance that obligation with the burden placed on landowners who are working to utilize their investment to serve the housing and business needs of the community as a whole.

I am confident that our agencies can work together to develop creative solutions that adequately meet the water supply needs of our community and respectfully request you direct your staff to work with the City to achieve these objectives. I look forward to your response.

Sincerely,
Kristen Schreder
