GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION “Residential, 3.5 to 6 dwelling units per acre” and “Greenway.” ZONING DESIGNATION “RS-3.5-FP” Residential Single-Family District with Floodplain Overlay District.

SURROUNDING LAND USES
North: Single-family homes
East: The Sacramento River
South: Single-family homes
West: Single-family homes
Background
On December 12, 2023, the Planning Commission approved Tentative Subdivision Map Application S-2023-00582 for the Riverstone Subdivision. This a standard subdivision that adheres to all base district zoning regulations. The subdivision site consists of approximately

10.5 gross acres of land, is currently under development, and is surrounded on three sides with single-family residential development. Now, L&S Redding Development, LLC, is requesting approval of a Planned Development Plan and rezoning of the Riverstone Subdivision.

The Planned Development Plan proposes to privatize the public street and add a gate at the entrance. With approval of a Planned Development Plan, this is allowed under Section

17.60.020-5 of the Zoning Ordinance. The draft conditions of approval for the project include provisions for easements over public infrastructure, access to the private street by emergency services, and renaming of the streets in accordance with the private street naming criteria outlined in Section 17.64.020-B.4 of the Zoning Ordinance.

The previously approved Riverstone Subdivision already plans to provide adequate public services to the development as a condition of development. Because the Draft Conditions of Approval require the recordation and/or reservation of public service easements over all public utilities and streets originally required with the subdivision, adequate public services will continue to be provided with the addition of the Planned Development Overlay District zoning designation.

No changes to the recorded Final Map for the Riverstone Subdivision are proposed with this Planned Development application. This project does not propose any development in addition to the subdivision’s original proposal save for the installation of a gated access. The Draft Conditions of Approval require that the gate be set back a minimum of fifteen feet from the public right-of-way to allow for vehicles to stage in front of the gate without impeding traffic on Wyndham Lane. The entrance to the subdivision, including the gate, will be architecturally compatible with the land use character of the surrounding single-family residential development.

Re: 4(b)1-- Planned Development Application PD-2023-01708 and Rezoning Application RZ2023-01709 Page 3 Environmental Determination
On December 12, 2023, the city of Redding previously certified a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the previously approved Riverstone Subdivision. Staff has determined that the preparation of an Addendum to the Mitigated Negative Declaration adopted for Tentative Subdivision Map S-2023-00582, Riverstone Subdivision, is appropriate under CEQA for the proposed Planned Development (see attached Addendum). The preparation of an Addendum to a previously-adopted environmental document is specifically provided for under CEQA, to address minor technical changes to a previously-approved project that do not alter the findings and determination of the adopted environmental document.

Public Comment
As of the writing of this staff report, no public comments have been received.

Project Conditions
The conditions for this project are attached.

Required Findings
The necessary findings of approval for the project are attached.

Planning Commission Authority
The Planning Commission typically has the authority to approve planned developments under Section 18.10.030 of the City’s Zoning Ordinance. However, in this case the City Council has the responsibility for approval of the rezoning application that the Planned Development is dependent upon. Therefore, the Planning Commission is asked to forward a recommendation on the project to City Council.

Alternatives
The following alternatives are offered for consideration:

1. Based upon a determination that the necessary findings for approval are in evidence, recommend that the City Council adopt the Addendum to the previously adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration for Tentative Subdivision Map S-2023-00582, Riverstone Subdivision, and approve Planned Development Application PD-2023-01708 and Rezoning Application RZ-2023-01709 subject to the draft conditions of approval. (Staff Recommendation)

2. Recommend the project for approval with modifications to the draft conditions that the Planning Commission deems necessary to support the project. Minor modifications may be incorporated into a motion for approval.

3. Recommend denial to the City Council of the tentative map and rezoning application.

Such action must be based upon a finding that the project is inconsistent with the General Packet Pg. 525 Packet Pg. 6 Attachment: ^Planning Commission Staff Report - October 22, 2024 (6.1--Planned Development App PD-2023-01708 and Rezoning Application Report to Redding Planning Commission October 18, 2024
Re: 4(b)1-- Planned Development Application PD-2023-01708 and Rezoning Application RZ2023-01709 Page 4 Plan or other City development standards or poses a threat to public health, safety, or welfare. Staff has not identified any justification for denial of the project.

Conclusion
The proposed Planned Development, as conditioned, represents a revision to the Riverstone Subdivision that would allow it to become a private gated community. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission forward a recommendation to the City Council to approve Planned Development Application PD-2023-01708 and Rezoning Application RZ-2023-01709 in accordance with Alternative 1 listed above.

ADDENDUM TO A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION
Addendum to Mitigated Negative Declaration
Prepared for Tentative Subdivision Map S-2023-00582, Riverstone Subdivision Planned Development Application PD-2023-01708
Rezoning Application RZ-2023-01709
SUBJECT Planned Development Application PD-2023-01708 and Rezoning Application RZ-2023-01709, by L&S Redding Development, LLC, requesting approval of a Planned Development Plan and rezoning of property known as the Riverstone Subdivision and shown as Lots 1 through 20 on Final Map S-2023-00582, filed in Book 25 of Maps, at Page 44, Shasta County records.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION L&S Redding Development, LLC, is requesting approval of a Planned Development Plan and rezoning of property known as the Riverstone Subdivision and shown as Lots 1 through 20 on Final Map S-2023-00582, filed in Book 25 of Maps, at Page 44, Shasta County records. The rezoning would change the property’s zoning designation from “RS-3.5-FP” Residential Single-Family District with Floodplain Overlay District to “RS-3.5-PD-FP” Residential Single-Family District with Planned Development and Floodplain Overlay Districts.

The addition of the Planned Development Overlay zoning designation would allow for gated street access and private streets as proposed in the Planned Development Plan.

ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING The project consists of approximately 10.5 gross acres of land. The site is relatively flat with an elevation of approximately 472 feet above mean sea level (MSL) and primarily composed of annual grassland and scattered patches of valley oak woodland. There is also some riparian habitat along the Sacramento River. The river runs along the eastern boundary of the project site from north to south. The project site is currently under development and completely surrounded on all other sides with single-family residential development.

ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENT BACKGROUND A Mitigated Negative Declaration prepared for the original project was adopted by the Redding Planning Commission on December 12, 2023.

REVISED IMPACT ANALYSIS The original approval was for a subdivision that adhered to the typical City of Redding standards, including the dedication of public streets and certain utility improvements. Rezoning the property to include a Planned Development Overlay District would allow the subdivision to maintain its interior streets and infrastructure privately. It would also allow for the installation of gated access at the entrance of the subdivision which is proposed with the Planned Development Plan.

DETERMINATION On December 12, 2023, the city of Redding previously certified a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project described above.

Based upon a review of the current revisions to the project, it has been determined that an Addendum is appropriate because the additions are minor, and none of the following conditions (pursuant to CEQA Section 15162) have occurred:

1. Substantial changes are proposed for the project that will require major revision of the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration due to new, significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified effects.

2. Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken that involve new, significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified effects.

3. New information of substantial importance indicates that:
a. The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration.
b. Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration.
c. Mitigation measures previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt them.
d. Mitigation measures that are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration would substantially reduce one or more significant effects, but the project proponents decline to adopt them.

FINDINGS

1. The City of Redding has determined that an Addendum is warranted, finding that none of the above conditions are in evidence and that there is no substantial evidence, in light of the whole record before the City, that the amendment proposal will have a significant effect on the environment.

2. The Addendum to the Mitigated Negative Declaration, with its supporting documentation (Initial Study), fully incorporated herein, reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the City of Redding.

3. Pursuant to Section 15074.1(b) of CEQA, the City of Redding finds that the mitigation measures contained in the Mitigated Negative Declaration are sufficient and that the Project will not cause any potentially significant effect on the environment.

PUBLIC REVIEW DISTRIBUTION
Pursuant to Section 15164(c) of CEQA, an Addendum does not require circulation for public review.

FINDINGS

L&S REDDING DEVELOPMENT, LLC
PLANNED DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION PD-2023-01708

1. The proposed development is consistent with the goals, objectives, policies, standards, and programs of the Redding Zoning Ordinance and of the General Plan and any applicable specific plan, including density and intensity limitations that apply.

The subdivision associated with this Planned Development Plan has already been approved.

However, the Planned Development Plan proposes to privatize the public street and add a gate to its entrance. This is allowed under Section 17.60.020-5 of the Zoning Ordinance with a Planned Development Plan approved by the Planning Commission. The conditions of approval for the project include provisions for easements over public infrastructure, access to the private street by emergency services, and renaming of the streets in accordance with the private street naming criteria outlined in Section 17.64.020-B,4 of the Zoning Ordinance.

The implementation of these conditions of approval make the project consistent with the General Plan and the Zoning Ordinance.

2. The site for the proposed development is adequate in size and shape to accommodate said use and all yards, open spaces, setbacks, walls and fences, parking area, loading areas, landscape, and other features required.

The site for the proposed Planned Development Plan is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the installation of a gated street. The gate is required to be set back a minimum of fifteen feet from the public right-of-way to allow for vehicles to stage in front of the gate without impeding traffic on Wyndham Lane. All walls, fences, landscaping, and gates have ample space to meet required setbacks.

3. The site for the proposed development has adequate access considering the limitations of existing and planned streets and highways.

The previously-approved Riverstone Subdivision was deemed to have adequate existing access. Staff has not identified any limitations to access relating to any planned streets or highways. The subdivision is an infill site surrounded by a built out residential neighborhood.

4. Adequate public services exist or will be provided in accordance with the conditions of development plan approval, to serve the proposed development; and the approval of the proposed development will not result in a reduction of such public services to properties so as to be a detriment to public health, safety, or welfare.

The previously-approved Riverstone Subdivision already plans to provide adequate public services to the development as a condition of development. Due to the recordation and/or reservation of public service easements over all public utilities and streets originally dedicated to the City with the subdivision, adequate public services will continue to be provided with the addition of the Planned Development Plan Overlay District zoning designation.

5. The proposed development, as conditioned, will not have a substantial adverse effect on surrounding property or the permitted use thereof and will be compatible with the existing and planned land use character of the surrounding area.

The addition of a gated street to the Riverstone Subdivision will not adversely affect surrounding property as the street does not interconnect the neighborhood. Road ‘A’, as shown in the proposed planned development plan, is a cul-de-sac. The privatization of this street will only limit access to the interior of the subdivision, which will not adversely affect surrounding property since the neighboring properties do not require access to this cul-de-sac. The entrance to the subdivision, including the gate, will be architecturally compatible with the land use character of single-family residential development which is the kind of development built in the surrounding area.

6. The improvements required and the manner of development adequately address all natural and manmade hazards associated with the proposed development and the project site, including, but not limited to, flood, fire, and slope hazards.

The project site is relatively flat and is outside of the high fire severity zone. The eastern portion of the subdivision is within the 100-year floodplain of the Sacramento River but no development, save for a previously-approved storm drain outfall, was proposed in this area with the previously-approved Riverstone Subdivision. The proposed Planned Development Plan does not seek approval to develop the floodplain, and therefore no hazards associated with flood are anticipated. Staff has not identified any other potential manmade hazards with the project.

7. The proposed development carries out the intent of the Planned Development provisions by providing a more efficient use of the land and an excellence of architecture and site design greater than that which could be achieved through the application of the base district regulations.

The previously-approved Riverstone Subdivision voluntarily included the excellence of architecture and site design that would normally have been achieved through a Planned Development Plan. This Planned Development application will enshrine this higher standard into the entitlement for the project. Furthermore, Section 17.60.020-5 of the Subdivision Ordinance requires that all residential lots have frontage on, and take direct access from, a public street unless a Planned Development Plan is approved for projects with private streets.

The proposed Planned Development Plan will allow for a gated street which could not be achieved through the application of the base district regulations.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Approve the non-binding Letter of Intent (LOI) with the Redding Rodeo Association (RRA).

This LOI provides the framework for amending the lease agreement for the Redding Rodeo Grounds (C-141). Approval of this LOI will allow both parties to proceed with formal negotiations, under a common understanding, to finalize a comprehensive lease amendment.

Fiscal Impact
Approval of the Letter of Intent (LOI) does not have an immediate fiscal impact on the City of Redding's (City) General Fund. However, the proposed amendment to the lease, which include community event programming, capital improvements, and maintenance obligations, will require further analysis, to be conducted during the lease negotiation process. Future financial obligations will be addressed in the final lease agreement with provisions for lease payments, capital improvement commitments, and grant funding opportunities.

Alternative Action
The City Council may choose not to approve the LOI, which would halt the current negotiation process for amending the Redding Rodeo Grounds lease agreement. Alternatively, the Council could request modifications to the LOI prior to approval.

Background/Analysis
The City and the Redding Rodeo Association (RRA) have long partnered to maintain and utilize the Redding Rodeo Grounds, a significant community asset. The current lease agreement, which is set to expire on August 1, 2029, will require an update, allowing for a longer term to provide the opportunity to improve the facilities. The attached LOI serves as a starting point for formalizing key lease terms, including:

Report to Redding City Council November 13, 2024
Re: 9.1(a)--Consider Approval of a Non-Binding Letter of Intent Amending Redding Rodeo Association Lease Page 2
• A 25-year primary lease term with two optional 10-year extensions; • Performance milestones for the RRA, including the renovation of the announcer’s booth, private boxes, and grandstands;
• A commitment from the RRA to continue hosting the annual Redding Rodeo and expand the use of the grounds for additional community events; • Financial documentation from the RRA to demonstrate its ability to fund the required improvements, ensuring transparency and accountability; and • Collaborative efforts to develop a comprehensive parking plan with nearby venues, including the Civic Auditorium and Turtle Bay Exploration Park.

The LOI is non-binding, ensuring that both parties retain flexibility while negotiations proceed.

However, it establishes a mutual understanding of the scope of future lease amendments, including provisions for capital improvements, insurance, liability, and compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

Environmental Review
This LOI is not considered a "project" under CEQA, and no further environmental review is required at this stage. The subsequent lease agreement will include provisions to ensure compliance with all relevant environmental regulations.

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.”

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO REDDING CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Approve a 10-year lease (C-141) of the Redding Rodeo Grounds with the Redding Rodeo Association (RRA), with a term expiring July 31, 2026.

Background
At its March 9, 2016, meeting, the Community Services Advisory Commission voted to recommend a new 10-year lease of the Redding Rodeo Grounds with the Redding Rodeo Association. The Redding Rodeo Association has leased the Rodeo Grounds from the City of Redding for 67 years. The current extension expires on July 31, 2016, and while the current term allows for five (5) one-year extensions, the Redding Rodeo Association requested a new lease with a ten (10) year term. The following are the main changes from the current lease:

1. Ten-year term. The lease may be terminated at an earlier date by either party with one (1) year written notice.

2. The lease area has been reduced to accommodate plans for a new road alignment to the boat ramp.

3. An updated list of improvement projects has been included with the lease.

All other terms and conditions remain the same as the current lease.

Issue
Should Council approve the new lease with the Redding Rodeo Association for the Redding Rodeo Grounds?

Re: 4.6(c)--Redding Rodeo Association Lease for the Redding Rodeo Grounds Page 2 Alternatives; Implication of Alternatives

1. Approve the lease. This alternative will allow the Redding Rodeo Association to continue use of the facility for the Redding Rodeo as well as other equestrian events.

2. Decline to approve the lease. This alternative would require the Redding Association to find a new facility to continue its operations including the Redding Rodeo.

3. Provide staff with alternative direction.

Fiscal Impact
The annual lease payment is $50. There is no fiscal impact from this lease.

Conclusion
The Redding Rodeo Association has been a good tenant for the Rodeo Grounds and continues to make improvements to the facilities. This lease extension will allow the RRA to continue to hold the Redding Rodeo, a signature event for the City, as well as many other equestrian-related events for the community’s involvement and enjoyment.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Accept the City of Redding Electric Utility’s Fiscal Year 2024-25 First Quarter Financial Report, Industry Activities Update, and Power Content Label.

Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact related to accepting this report.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) could choose not to accept the report and provide further direction to staff.

Background/Analysis
The attached September Financial Report shows that Redding Electric Utility (REU) outperformed budget projections in Net Operating Revenues for the first three months of the fiscal year. Higher revenues and savings in power costs offset a modest increase in System Operation and Maintenance (O&M) expenses. The favorable financial results and a decline in unrestricted reserves are primarily driven by a $1.1 million increase in inventory during the first quarter and $5.9 million in encumbrances, representing commitments for future expenditures.

Although unrestricted reserves decreased by approximately $1.5 million through September, the cash reserve balance remains in compliance with the Council’s Financial Management Policy.

Packet Pg. 573
Report to Redding City Council November 13, 2024
Re: 9.5(b)--Electric Utility's Quarterly Report - 1st Quarter Page 2 Revenue
Billed retail revenue through September was $3,970,222 (9.6 percent) above budget, primarily due to warmer weather driving higher energy usage. Total wholesale sales were only $13,622 (0.4 percent) above budget. Overall, operating revenue was $5,255,098 (11.6 percent) above budget. Operating revenue after energy costs was $6,738,201 (27.5 percent) above budget.

Expenses
Power Cost (Cost of Energy)
The combined costs for generation, purchases from the Western Area Power Administration (WAPA), Big Horn Wind Project, contracts, and the spot market were $1,482,923 (7.2 percent) below budget projections. The Redding Power Plant generation costs were lower than anticipated, and spot market prices were favorable during this period. The total cost of energy decreased by $2,923,262 (13.2 percent) year-over-year. The Power Cost for the load (Power Cost less Wholesale Sales) decreased very minimally by $709 year-over-year (0.0 percent).

System Operations & Maintenance (O&M)
System O&M costs aligned with budget projections.

Debt Service and Capital Outlay
Debt service payments and obligations through September totaled $3.6 million (on plan). Capital expenditures totaled $3.5 million (14.6 percent spent). The pace of capital expenditures remains delayed due to the extended lead times for procuring high-demand items, particularly those requiring specialized materials. In addition, while the severity of ongoing supply chain challenges has eased somewhat, longer lead times, increased shipping costs, and raw material constraints continue to affect the timing of capital projects.

Special Fund Expenditures
Special Fund Expenditures which include spending for Public Benefit and Cap-and-Trade Programs totaled $611,591 (representing 7.4 percent of the budget) through September.

Electric Utility Unrestricted Cash Balance
At the end of September, the unrestricted cash balance was $39.4 million, representing approximately 108 days of cash. REU’s Financial Management Policy (Council Policy 1414) has a minimum of 75 days of cash and a goal of 150 days of cash.

Director’s Contingency Fund
The REU Director’s Contingency Fund was not utilized through September.

Report to Redding City Council November 13, 2024
Re: 9.5(b)--Electric Utility's Quarterly Report - 1st Quarter Page 3 Power Content Label
The City of Redding’s (City) Annual Power Content Label and Power Source Disclosure are attached. The Power Source Disclosure Program, administered by the California Energy Commission (CEC), requires retail suppliers of electricity to disclose to their customers accurate, reliable, and simple-to-understand information on the sources of energy that are used to provide electric services; this is accomplished through the completion and publication of the annual Power Content Label.

The City’s Power Content Label shows our portfolio included 27.6 percent Eligible Renewable Resources for the calendar year 2023. While the State does not classify large hydroelectric generation (Shasta Dam, etc.) as eligible renewable, our resource mix was 54.4 percent carbonfree.

Before publication and submission, the CEC requires approval of attestation of the report’s accuracy from the City Council. By accepting this Financial Report, the Council attests to the accuracy of the 2023 Power Content Label and permits its submission to the CEC.

Environmental Review
This is not a project defined under the California Environmental Quality Act, and no further action is required.

Notes to Financial Report
Notes on Financial Operating Statement
Operating revenues are divided into three revenue elements: Retail Sales are sales of electricity to end-use customers; Wholesale Sales are to customers who resell electricity; Other Revenue includes the sale of services, joint-pole arrangements, interest income, and other miscellaneous revenue generated in the operations of Redding Electric Utility (REU).

Operating Expenses are divided into two expense elements: Power Cost and System O&M.

Cost of Energy summarizes Purchased Power costs. The primary sources of purchased power include Western Area Power Administration deliveries and long-term contracts for Wind Energy through M-S-R. Fuel expenses, purchases from the spot market, and expenses associated with participation in the California Independent System Operator make up the remainder. The Generation and Transmission component comprises power plant variable costs (fuel) and fixed costs (all non-fuel costs), as well as all JPA costs (M-S-R and TANC), except Wind Energy.

The Wholesale Sales and Power Costs budgets are based on known contracts and confirmed resources. Throughout the year, an effort is made to provide the most cost-effective energy supply for our ratepayers. This is often done by buying and selling natural gas or electricity to reduce the overall cost. This could include selling natural gas and replacing it with less expensive electricity than burning the gas in our power plant. It could also include selling energy we have contracted for at one trading hub and buying it at another less expensive one. It could also include maximizing the value of our gas storage facility to purchase natural gas in one month when it is less expensive and use it or sell it in another month. All these transactions benefit our customers but significantly inflate the Wholesale Sales and Cost of Energy numbers over their original budgets. This is because accounting rules require us to record these transactions at their gross revenue and expense amounts and not on the net benefit to the Utility.

System O&M Expenses summarize costs for all other functional groups, i.e., Administration, Customer Services, Engineering, Financial Services, Line, Compliance, and Resources. Special Revenue funds, i.e., Public Benefits and Cap-and-Trade, are shown separately. Debt Service is paid twice per fiscal year, once in December and again in June. Capital Outlay includes currentyear appropriations and unfinished projects approved by Council in prior years.

This financial report provides year-to-date comparisons to the current budget and the same yearto-date results for the prior year. Operating revenues are reported as billed. Costs for energy, other operating expenses, and capital outlay are recorded when paid. For this report, debt payments are spread evenly over the year, giving a more helpful picture of the financial results.

Projections are based on normal weather trends and known industry activity. If actual weather conditions are above or below average for the month or unexpected industry disruption occurs, revenue and expenses will increase or decrease accordingly. REU’s residential and small commercial rate structures are heavily weighted on volumetric charges ($/kWh), and abnormal weather causes more significant variances in net operating results, emphasizing the difference between the rate structure and cost structure.

The recorded results are preliminary and subject to revision until the final audit is complete.

Industry Activities Update –1st Quarter FY2025
Federal Update
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) highlighted urgent infrastructure needs in its National Transmission Needs Study, revealing that the current transmission system would need a 64% increase by 2035 to ensure grid reliability as demand rises and renewable integration increases.

This expansion is essential given the massive interconnection backlog, now at around 2,600 GW, primarily for solar, battery storage, and wind energy projects. FERC (Federal Energy Regulatory Commission) responded by advancing reforms to streamline the interconnection process, switching to a cluster approach to reduce delays, which could help alleviate grid bottlenecks and expedite renewable projects already in the queue.

On July 18, FERC issued Order No. 2023-A, a reform requiring utilities to consider regional needs in their transmission planning to support new renewable projects. This order mandates a holistic approach to planning, encouraging collaborative cost-sharing models among states and regions to distribute transmission costs more equitably while reducing project redundancies and accelerating implementation.

Reports from entities like NERC (North American Electric Reliability Corporation) and the DOE project that U.S. energy demand will see significant increases by the end of the decade, driven by electrification, electric vehicle growth, and heavy data-center energy needs. These factors underscore the importance of proactive transmission investments to prevent grid strain and meet both summer and winter peaks in demand.

State Legislative Update
In response to rising energy needs, California introduced legislation to accelerate renewable energy projects, streamline permitting, and expedite infrastructure development. Key updates include efforts to fast-track renewable projects by establishing a "one-stop shop" for permitting and expanding by-right approvals in pre-zoned areas to overcome local permitting delays. This legislation aims to enhance California's renewable energy infrastructure, essential for meeting the state’s ambitious goals of achieving 60% clean energy by 2030 and 100% by 2045.

California’s legislature approved funding through the proposed $10 billion climate bond, which includes allocations for grid-enhancing technologies and advanced reconductoring projects. This funding will support improved transmission capacity, helping meet the increasing demand for electricity while supporting grid reliability and safety. Additional funding was also designated for long-duration energy storage, improving grid resilience, and supporting renewable integration.

Senate Bill 1221 was passed to pilot neighborhood decarbonization projects, which would reduce gas reliance in communities by introducing affordable clean energy options. This initiative targets Packet Pg. 581 Attachment: Attachment 5 - Industry Update (9.5(b)--Electric Utility's Quarterly Report - 1st Quarter) disadvantaged and low-income communities, providing cleaner home appliances and better air quality, and it has the potential for broader implementation across the state.

State Regulatory Update
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) has indicated that the 45-day public comment period for proposed Cap-and-Trade regulatory amendments is expected soon and will likely be announced in the coming weeks. Any updates to the 2025 regulation would have required board approval in October 2024; therefore, any upcoming regulatory amendments won’t take effect until 2026.

In October 2024, the California Energy Commission (CEC) issued a Notice of Proposed Scope for revisions to the Renewables Portfolio Standard (RPS) Eligibility Guidebook, which is now moving toward its 10th edition. This proposed scope includes 18 areas for potential updates to better align the RPS with technological advancements and evolving grid needs. The RPS Guidebook is exempt from the full rulemaking process, which means the CEC can adopt changes to the Guidebook through a regularly scheduled business meeting. Northern California Power Agency (NCPA) is working with the California Municipal Utilities Association (CMUA) to develop joint POU comments on the scope of the RPS Guidebook. Comments were due to the CEC by November 1.

Senate Bill 1158, adopted on September 16, 2022, mandates that starting January 1, 2028, every retail seller in California must report hourly data on their electricity sources used to serve lossadjusted load for each hour of the previous calendar year, including the associated greenhouse gas emissions. This legislation seeks to enhance transparency and accuracy in tracking renewable energy usage and emissions, thereby helping California achieve its climate goals more effectively.

The Bill tasked the CEC with developing and adopting the reporting rules through an open process by July 2024. REU has been collaborating with the CMUA to provide feedback to the CEC, ensuring the reporting requirements are reasonable, not overly restrictive, and avoiding placing undue burdens on retail sellers and their customers. The second 45-day language is currently under review, with comments due by November 18.

Conclusion
REU actively collaborates with legislative and regulatory partners to manage risks and reduce exposure through strategic actions. Working with the NCPA, CMUA, and the Joint Utilities Group (JUG), REU provides input to address area-specific needs, impacts, and concerns to control customer costs and mitigate cost exposure. Additionally, REU participates in regulatory rulemaking with CMUA and other utility groups, advocating for favorable regulations and preparing for potential financial impacts. These proactive efforts help REU effectively navigate the evolving legislative and regulatory landscape.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the City Manager, or designee, to execute all necessary documents, including without limitation the agreements and amendments that: (1) transfer entitlement and assign Redding Electric Utility’s (REU) current 1.7496 percent ownership in the CaliforniaOregon Transmission Project (COTP), as well as all associated rights, duties, liabilities, and obligations, from REU to the Transmission Agency of Northern California, a Joint Powers Agency (TANC); and (2) modify REU’s share, as well as all associated rights, duties, liabilities, and obligations, in the TANC project that allocates TANC’s ownership rights and duties in the COTP to the project participants, in the amount of the assigned (current) REU’s ownership of

1.7496 percent and duties in the COTP.

Fiscal Impact
There is no direct cost associated with the transfer of Redding Electric Utility’s (REU) rights and obligations in the California-Oregon Transmission Project (COTP) to Transmission Agency of Northern California (TANC), nor are there any costs arising from changes in the REU’s rights and duties in the COTP through TANC.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) could choose not to authorize this recommendation and maintain the status quo structure, or provide alternative direction to staff.

Background/Analysis
REU is one of 15 members of the TANC. TANC holds the majority interest in a high-voltage transmission project known as the COTP. COTP is one of three 500kV transmission lines that connect Northern California to Oregon and the Pacific Northwest. Since its completion in 1993, COTP has provided a vital link for seasonal energy and long-term power supply, with contracts MEETING DATE: November 19, 2024

SUBJECT: 9.5(c)--Authorize Transfer of Transmission Capacity Entitlement and Assignment of Rights
Nick Zettel, Director of
Redding Electric Utility
Packet Pg. 586
Report to Redding City Council November 13, 2024
Re: 9.5(c)--Transfer of Transmission Capacity Entitlement and Assignment of Rights Page 2 at prices below those offered within California. Furthermore, the COTP enhances system reliability by enabling participation in a reserve-sharing pool, providing access to Pacific Northwest generation resources. REU, via TANC, currently holds transmission rights of 115 MW.

In 2005, REU purchased the City of Shasta Lake's 1.7496 percent ownership interest in COTP, adding 25 MW of additional capacity for a total of 140 MW of transmission. The opportunity for REU to acquire additional transmission was of strategic importance because such acquisition allowed REU to maintain critical COTP capacity. At that time, moving the 25 MW additional capacity into TANC could have exposed REU to a requirement to sell a minority interest in its COTP rights to the California Department of Water Resources (DWR); therefore, REU chose not to assign the 25 MW acquired from the City of Shasta Lake to TANC.

COTP remains a valuable asset to REU and continues to provide bi-directional access to markets and energy resources in the Pacific Northwest. As one of COTP’s owners, the City of Redding (City) is exposed to wildfire risk and is financially liable for direct cash and funding requirements allocated to the 1.7496 percent share purchased from the City of Shasta Lake.

TANC is the Joint Power Agency directly responsible for its capacity rights and passes its costs through to its members along with their COTP rights. This structure adds a layer of protection and insulation to the City while allowing TANC to finance major capital investments on behalf of its members.

In March 2022, the COTP Management Committee, which oversees the operations and management of COTP and of which REU is a member, approved a five-year plan for major capital improvements and replacements of the COTP system. One of those capital improvements is replacing the COTP’s series capacitors at a cost of approximately $120 million. Series capacitors are devices placed in series with transmission lines to improve the efficiency and stability of power transmission over long distances. Through its TANC entitlement rights, REU will be responsible for approximately $7.6 million as its share for this project. TANC will finance this project through tax-exempt bonds. REU was required to pay $1.6 million out of its cash reserves for its portion of direct ownership.

To mitigate exposure to future environmental and financial risk, such as cash calls for direct ownership of COTP, REU recommends transferring its 1.7496 percent ownership rights of COTP to TANC. TANC’s entitlements would then allow the allocation of capacity to REU, and there would be no change in REU’s usable COTP capacity. Additionally, TANC could absorb REU’s $1.6 million payment into its financing for the capital upgrades and allow REU to replenish its cash reserves. REU does not anticipate any additional risks to the City from transferring these rights. The majority of REU’s rights in COTP are currently held through TANC, and the risk of obligated sales to DWR is no longer an issue.

In addition to reducing risk exposure, transferring the 1.7496 percent ownership rights to TANC allows REU to realize organizational efficiencies and streamline the administration, operation, and maintenance of its share of COTP assets.

Environmental Review
This is not a project defined under the California Environmental Quality Act, and no further action is required.

In calendar year 2024, the City of Redding’s (City) Recreation Division waived $101,712 in field usage fees for the two Redding-based Little League organizations. In addition to forgone revenue, the City’s Parks Division spends at least $81,763 annually on field maintenance, materials and utilities for facilities supporting Little League activities.

In addition to the planned maintenance, other items such as major repairs, replacements and other ancillary facility maintenance like parking lots and restrooms that support ball fields are not accounted for. These operating obligations, coupled with administrative costs, collectively exceed any field usage revenues. Currently, there is no dedicated funding source for making field improvements or major repairs, and revenues are not adequate to take on additional efforts beyond routine maintenance, so many ancillary and support facilities receive lower maintenance priority.

SUBJECT: 9.6(b)--Consider Little League Field use fees and negotiation of a Memorandum of Understanding with Little League organizations.

Travis Menne, Director of
Community Services

Report to Redding City Council November 14, 2024
Re: 9.6(b)--Consider Little League Field Use Fees and MOU Page 2 Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) could choose to take no action on this item. In this case, without any exemption or agreement, Little League groups will be responsible for paying regular field usage fees per the City’s Schedule of Fees and Service Charges. Council could also provide alternate direction to staff.

Background/Analysis
The Community Services Department has recognized that the City’s Parks and Recreation Divisions provide regular and special services to Redding’s Little League groups at no charge.

These groups, East Redding Little League and West Redding Little League, are nonprofit organizations that facilitate youth baseball and softball programs in the City. Currently, there is no formal agreement or adopted exemption between the City and Little League groups which would supersede the intent of City Council Policy 802 (Fee Evaluation and Adjustment). The policy directs staff to annually adjust fees to recuperate costs of service or target a cost recovery rate should the City choose to subsidize that cost.

The adopted fee schedule includes referenced field usage fees. At these fields, for the general public, usage fees are $47 for two hours and a $12 fee for field lights should they be needed.

Neither Council Policy 802, nor the fee schedule itself provide the City Manager authority to waive fees. Council must authorize any blanket exemption or subsidy to the adopted fees otherwise applicable to any person or organization seeking to reserve City facilities. Should Council desire to set an alternate fee or waive the fees for Little Leagues, staff would memorialize this in a memorandum of understanding (MOU) negotiated by the City Manager or their designee that outlines terms, conditions and roles and responsibilities for field maintenance, registration, and scheduling. Staff will work with the Community Services Advisory Commission to assist with negotiating the MOU.

The Recreation Division’s past practice has been to not charge the Little League groups for field usage in an effort to keep their costs low in hopes they pass savings on to local youth. In return, since no revenue is generated by the field use, to assist the City, Little League groups perform minimal maintenance activities and make some project-based investments to help keep the fields at a higher standard. These projects include infield grading, field prep and other minor improvements, as well as more notable efforts like new scoreboards for K2 and K3. Currently, East Redding Little League is undertaking a project at the Alta Mesa field to create two bullpens with an approximate value of $50,000. Though these improvement projects are welcomed and help ease the burden on the Parks Division to upgrade the facilities, their costs do not make up the balance of routine services provided.

Fields used by Little Leagues include K1, K2, K3, Caldwell Tee Ball, Alta Mesa, and Softball Park. With the exception of Little Leagues, these fees are applicable to any exclusive use at the fields, including games, practices and other private reservations. Of all park facility reservations throughout the City in calendar year 2024, excluding the Redding Sports Park and Redding Aquatic Center, the Community Services Department collected $52,805. Of that, baseball fields only represent 9.67 percent, or $5,458. With the unexpected closure of the Redding Sports Park in 2024, travel ball teams and others had no choice but go to alternative locations, which caused an approximately $4,000 increase in paid field utilization between August and November. In 2023, a more typical year for field usage, the Community Services Department collected $36,761 in park reservation fees, of which only .02 percent is from ballfields, or about $646.

Re: 9.6(b)--Consider Little League Field Use Fees and MOU Page 3 and any additional revenue is captured by the General Fund and can be appropriated for park improvement projects needed at these facilities or be retained for other General Fund uses.

Outside of field reservation fees, the Recreation Division also provides a special priority reservation service for Little League groups to help facilitate their seasons and maintain consistency for their organization. Priority reservations, in practice, means that the general public and Redding Recreation’s own programming are not able to reserve fields prior to the Little League organization’s blocks of reservations that are uploaded into the City’s reservation system. This practice impacts the City’s Jr. Giants programs, which are not able to utilize City fields during the Little League season, requiring the City’s program to reserve fields at schools instead of City facilities. Inputting the League’s reservations is also performed by City staff, rather than the organization themselves, which entails dozens of hours of staff time for each league during both the spring and fall seasons.

Staff now seeks Council’s direction on this practice and relative to entering into an MOU to address the issues above.

No adjustments are being recommended to expenditures at this time. If at the end of the fiscal year there are any required adjustments those will be presented to Council with the mid-cycle update after completion of Fiscal Year 2024-25.

General Fund Reserves
As of September 30, 2024, the General Fund cash balance was $4,916,153 or 4.4 percent. At year end, the ten-year plan projects the reserve to be 7.2 percent. The final reserve is subject to change dependent on revenue and expenditure outcomes. Cash will continue to decline through December 2024 and then rebuild in January onward as the City receives property tax installments from Shasta County. Staff is not recommending any changes to the projected reserve at this time.

General Fund Overtime
The City’s General Fund overtime expense totals $2,655,683 through September 30, 2024. This is $1,703,835 above staff’s cash flow estimate of $951,848. The expenditures year-to-date compared to the year-to-date budget are listed below, of which, the four largest overtime budgets are Fire, Police, Parks, and Streets:
• The Fire Department had overtime expenses through September 30, 2024, of $1,980,108 compared to a total overtime budget of $558,598;
• The Police Department had overtime expenses through September 30, 2024, of $601,800 compared to a total overtime budget of $372,250;
• The Community Services Department had overtime expenses through September 30, 2024, of $48,776 compared to a total overtime budget of $0. • The Public Works Department had overtime expenses through September 30, 2024, of $22,362 compared to a total overtime budget of $17,500; and • All other General Fund Departments had overtime expenses through September 30, 2024, of $2,636 compared to an overtime budget of $3,500.

Although some of the aforementioned expenses are either over budget or nearly over budget, there are no additional budget requests at this time. Each department has adequate savings in areas such as personnel charges and/or additional cross charges to other City departments, to offset the excess costs.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following:
(1) Find that Abacus Construction, Inc. has failed to commence satisfactory corrective actions under the Public Works Agreement (Agreement) dated June 17, 2022, for the Eastside Road over Olney Creek Bridge Project, Bid Schedule 5180 (Job No. 2477), as the City of Redding requested via a Notice of Contractor’s Control Termination letter dated November 4, 2024;
(2) Find that Abacus Construction, Inc. is in default of the Agreement; and (3) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to take all appropriate action necessary to complete the project, including, as appropriate, written notice of termination for default to the Contractor and its Surety.

Fiscal Impact
The Eastside Road over Olney Creek Bridge Project (Project) is funded by the Federal Highway Bridge Program (HBP) and the City of Redding (City), Citywide Transportation Impact Fee Program (TIF). The HBP funds 88.53 percent of the project while the remaining 11.47 percent will be funded by the TIF. Staff anticipates the HBP to fully fund its share of eligible project total costs based upon previous experience with prior HBP funded projects. On February 6, 2024, City Council (Council) authorized funding increases for a total budget of approximately $5,756,000 as a result of encountering unanticipated contaminated soils within the project limits.

Alternative Action
The Council could choose not to authorize the Contractor’s Control Termination for default and provide alternative direction to staff.

SUBJECT: 9.11(j)--Consider Contractor's Control Termination with Abacus Construction, Inc. and Potential Findings of Fact with regard to Public Works Agreement dated June 17, 2022 for the Eastside Road over Olney Creek Bridge Project, Bid Schedule 5180, (Job No. 2477).

Report to Redding City Council November 14, 2024
Re: 9.11(i)--Contractor's Control Termination with Abacus Construction, Inc. Page 2 Background/Analysis
On May 17, 2022, Council awarded construction for the project to the second low bidder, Abacus Construction, Inc. (Contractor), of Redding, California in the amount of $3,703,683.84.

To date, the contractor has been compensated for work performed in the amount of $1,169,966.04 including $685,010.80 in authorized contract change orders.

A Notice of Contractor’s Control Termination, attached, was sent to the contractor via certified mail on June 25, 2024, notifying the contractor that they were in default of the contract and directed to commence satisfactory corrective actions within five working days after receipt of the notice.

On July 2, 2025, the contractor provided a response which failed to include the corrective actions but did include additional information which had not been previously discussed with staff. At that time, staff continued communications with the contractor to provide additional clarification in the hopes to find an amicable resolve. Since receipt of the contractor’s response, staff has continued communications with the contractor but those conversations have not presented a suitable resolve and thus a second Notice of Contractor’s Control Termination (Notice), attached, was sent to the contractor via certified mail on November 4. 2024. The Notice informed the contractor that they are in default of the contract as they materially violated provisions of the contract documents by failing to maintain the required insurance coverage and not completing the work in accordance with the contract documents; they disregarded written instructions from the City Engineer; and failed to prosecute the work according to the schedule approved by the City Engineer. Within the notice, the contractor was directed to commence satisfactory corrective actions within five working days after receipt of the notice.

The contractor received and replied to the notice on November 5, 2024, and November 7, 2024, respectively. Unfortunately, the contractor’s November 7, 2024, response did not cure the defaults identified in the notice. Subsequently, the contractor was notified that the defaults had not been cured and that the five working day period for curing the defaults, as described in the notice, ends on November 13, 2024. Ultimately, the contractor failed to cure the defaults described in the notice. As a result, staff is recommending terminating the contractor’s control of the project in accordance with the contract and Section 8-11.3, Contractor’s Control Termination, of the Caltrans Standard Specifications, 2018 Edition and commencement of communications with the contractor’s surety in order to successfully complete the project.

Environmental Review
This action is an administrative activity and is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). On February 6, 2018, the Council adopted the Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Mitigation Monitoring Program, and approved the Eastside Road at Olney Creek Bridge Replacement Project thereby satisfying the requirements of the CEQA Guidelines §15074. No further action is required.

On March 1, 2018, Caltrans determined that the project is categorically excluded from review under the National Environmental Policy Act, pursuant to 23 CFR 771.117(c): activity (c)(28) – Bridge Replacement. No further action is required.

SUBJECT: 4. 11( d) --Approve Increase to Project Budget and Adopt Budget Resolution for the Eastside Road Over Olney Creek Bridge Project
Recommendation
Authorize the following actions to approve increases to the project budget in the amount of 1, 250, 000 for the completion of Bid Schedule No. 5180, Eastside Road over Olney Creek Bridge Project as outlined below for additional project costs:
1) Increase of $ 700, 000 to the construction management budget, bringing the construction management total to $ 947, 000;
2) Increase of $ 550,000 to the construction contingency budget, bringing the construction contingency total to $ 1, 240,000; and
3) Adopt Resolution approving and adopting the 29th Amendment to City Budget Resolution No. 2023- 060 appropriating $ 0 for the project.

Fiscal Impact
The majority ( 88. 53%) of the project is anticipated to be funded through the Federal Highway Bridge Program ( HBP) and the balance ( 11. 47%) is funded with Citywide Transportation Impact Fee Program ( TIF) funds. Staff will be working with California Department of Transportation ( Caltrans) to obtain additional HBP funding for the project. Staff anticipates the HBP to fully fund its share of the project total costs based upon previous experience with other bridge HBP funded projects. Staff anticipates additional HBP funds within nine months and does not expect it to delay or impact any currently identified TIF projects. Any additional HBP funds will be presented and budgeted in a separate resolution. Until those additional funds become available, the TIF will cover the additional costs. TIF funds are being re -budgeted from the Victor -Rancho -Churn Creek project as staff is anticipating grant funding to complete construction. The total project cost, including the proposed increase and change orders paid through December 2023, is expected to be just under $ 5, 756, 000.

Re: 4.11( d) --Approve Increase to Project Budget & Adopt Reso for Eastside Rd over Olney Creek Bridge Page 2
Alternative Action
The City Council ( Council) may choose to reject the request and provide alternative direction to staff. Should Council choose to reject this request, the project would need to be terminated, repackaged and redesigned to show the current changes in the field, new environmental permits would need to be processed and acquired, a new request for funding through the Department of Transportation ( DOT) would need to be processed and acquired which could potentially place this project back in construction in about three years or more with significant cost increases to design and the potential for the DOT to deny the reimbursement request for funds.

BackgroundlAnalysis
The Eastside Road over Olney Creek Bridge Project ( Project) includes replacement of the Eastside Road bridge over Olney Creek and the rehabilitation of the approach roadway. The work will include removal of the existing bridge in stages, construction of a new bridge over two summer seasons, construction of retaining walls, sidewalk, curb and gutter, utility relocation, roadway construction, and other miscellaneous items of work.

On May 17, 2022, the Council awarded the construction contract for the Project to Abacus Construction, Inc. The notice to proceed was issued June 23, 2022, but due to material lead times ( 40- 50 weeks) the project was suspended and construction did not begin until May 22, 2023. On June 5, 2023 Abacus was working to install a temporary diversion in the Olney Creek channel when potentially contaminated soil was encountered on Union Pacific Railroad UPRR) property. Work was halted while sampling and testing was done to determine the nature of contaminants and to prepare a removal plan of the contaminated soil. No work was done onsite from June 6, 2023 through July 18, 2023. During this time, a City consultant prepared the soil removal plan and it was approved by the various permitting agencies.

Work to remove the contaminated soil began on July 19, 2023, and on July 26, 2023, a utility line belonging to UPRR was damaged while installing shoring used to remove the soil. UPRR required the City to update the access agreement to UPRR' s property, submit the contaminated soil removal plan for their approval, make notifications to various UPRR entities, coordinate UPRR preconstruction meetings and rail flaggers before granting access onto railroad property to perform the contaminated soil removal. No work was done on site from July 28, 2023 through November 26, 2023, to complete UPRR' s required process. On November 27, 2023, the contaminated soil removal work began, and the work was completed, including re -opening Eastside Road to two lanes, on December 8, 2023.

During the 2023 construction season, this project was delayed for about five and one- half months in total. Abacus was paid on a time and materials basis for traffic control equipment, pumping equipment, and daily pump maintenance. During construction, a transfer of construction management fiends in the amount of $320,000 into the construction contingency was necessary to fully fund the change orders resulting from the delays and extra work described above.

Re: 4.11( d) --Approve Increase to Project Budget & Adopt Reso for Eastside Rd over Olney Creek Bridge Page 3
The additional work will cause the project budget to exceed the awarded amounts. An additional 1, 250, 000 is requested to cover increases to the construction contingency ($ 550, 000) and construction management ($ 700, 000) project components.

Recommendation
Authorize the following actions relative to Bid Schedule No. 5180 ( Job No. 2477), Eastside Road over Olney Creek Bridge Project ( Project):
1) Reject the apparent low bid by Stewart Engineering Inc. ( SEI) as nonresponsive and award the project to the second low bidder Abacus Construction, Inc., in the amount of 3, 703, 683. 84;
2) Approve an additional $ 567, 000 to cover the cost of contract administration and inspection fees and $ 645, 000 for project development costs; 3) Approve $370,000 to provide construction contingency funding; 4) Authorize the City Manager to approve additional increases, in either the construction management or construction contingency amounts, up to a total of $15, 000; and 5) Adopt Resolution approving and adopting the 42nd Amendment to City Budget Resolution No. 2021- 078 appropriating $ 2, 056, 690 in federal grant funds and $ 1, 380, 390 in Transportation Impact Fee funds for the Project.

Fiscal Impact
The Eastside Road over Olney Creek Bridge Project ( Project) is being funded by two sources which consist of the Federal Highway Bridge Program ( HBP) and the City of Redding ( City) Citywide Transportation Impact Fee Program ( TIF). The HBP will fund 88. 53 percent of the project while the remaining 11. 47 percent will be through TIF. Since the bids were higher than the engineer' s estimated cost, staff will be working with California Department of Transportation Caltrans) to obtain additional HBP funding for the project. Staff anticipates the HBP to fully fund its share of the project total costs based upon previous experience with other bridge HBP funded projects. Until those additional funds become available, the TIF will cover the costs above the estimate. Any additional HBP funds will be presented and budgeted in a separate resolution. The HBP funds being appropriated at this time are currently authorized funds that were not previously budgeted.

Project cost components are estimated, and some shifting of the funds may be necessary to balance the project within the approved budget.

Alternative Action
Without this project, the bridge will not be replaced, and unsafe conditions for pedestrians and motorists will remain. In addition, the City would be at risk of losing federal funds and may have to reimburse project development federal funds spent to date. The City Council has the following alternative actions:

Choose not to award the bid for the Eastside Road over Olney Creek Bridge Project to the second low bidder Abacus Construction Inc ( Abacus), determine that SEI, the low bidder, did make adequate Good Faith Efforts ( GFE), and award the project to SEI. This may jeopardize current or future federal funding if the City is audited and the audit determines that SEI did not perform an adequate GFE.

Choose not to award the bid for the Eastside Road over Olney Creek Bridge Project and re -advertise the project. This action would delay the project; thereby missing the 2022 construction season and potentially requiring staff to update current environmental permits which would further delay the project. Re -advertising the project would, most likely, increase the number of bids received, and there are no guarantees the low bidder will meet the project' s Disadvantaged Business Enterprise ( DBE) goal or that it would perform an adequate Good Faith Effort (GFE).

Provide staff with other direction.

Background/Analysis
Attached is a tabulation of bids opened on January 25, 2022. The low bid in the amount of 3, 539, 305 was received from SEI of Redding, California. Because the HBP grant funds are from a federal source, the City was required to establish a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise DBE) participation goal specifically for the project, and a goal of 19 percent was established for this project. SEI did not achieve the goal, therefore, per federal regulations, the contractor must perform a Good Faith Effort ( GFE) to be awarded the project. Staff' s evaluation of a bidder' s GFE is based on Section 9 of the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual ( LAPM) as well as Appendix A of Title 49 CFR Part 26 of the Code of Federal Regulations ( CFR). Staff performed the following process in GFE evaluation for SEI.

Staff received SEI GFE documentation per the specified five days after bid opening.

Staff received a bid protest letter ( January 31, 2022) from the 2" d low bidder, Abacus, which did not provide any reasonable argument as to why the City should reject SEI' s bid. It simply stated that because SEI did not meet the goal regardless of an adequate Packet Pg. 676 Attachment: Previous Staff Report 02-06-24 (9.11(i)--Contractor's Control Termination with Abacus Construction, Inc.) Report to Redding City Council May 10, 2022
Re: 4. 11( a) --Award BS No. 5180, Eastside Road over Olney Creek Bridge Page 3 GFE, SEI' s bid should be rejected and the project should be awarded to Abacus, which is not allowed per the CFR.

Staff completed its GFE evaluation and determined that SEI did demonstrate an adequate GFE.

Per LAPM Section 9. 8 ( Local Public Agency Responsibilities), because the project contract exceeds $ 2 million and the low bidder did not meet the DBE goal, the City must submit the low bidder' s GFE documentation to the Caltrans Division of Local Assistance DLA). In addition, the City may not award the contract without receiving a memorandum from the DLA indicating that Caltrans has determined that the low bidder made a GFE. The City submitted SEI' s GFE to Caltrans District 2 DLA for review.

Staff received, via email from Caltrans District 2 DLA, a memorandum ( March 2, 2022) stating that Caltrans did not concur with the City' s determination that SEI had demonstrated an adequate GFE and concluded that SEI did not demonstrate it performed a GFE. Caltrans DLA relies on Caltrans Office of Civil Rights ( OCR) to perform the GFE evaluations.

Staff received the Abacus DBE complaint on March 9, 2022.

Per LAPM Section 9. 8, because Caltrans did not concur with the City, the City must take Caltrans feedback and re- evaluate the GFE. The City did re- evaluate SEI' s GFE and determined that SEI did not demonstrate an adequate GFE for the reasons noted in the reevaluation and a letter was sent to SEI dated March 21, 2022.

Therefore, in accordance with 49 CFR 26. 53, the City must allow the bidder/ offeror an opportunity for administrative reconsideration as outlined below:

1. As part of this reconsideration, the bidder/offeror must have the opportunity to provide written documentation or argument concerning the issue of whether it met the goal or made an adequate GFE to do so.

2. City decision on reconsideration must be made by an official who did not take part in the original determination that the bidder/ offeror failed to meet the goal or make adequate GFE to do so.

3. The bidder/offeror must have the opportunity to meet in person with the City reconsideration official to discuss the issues of whether it met the goal or made an adequate GFE to do so.

4. City must send the bidder/ offeror a written decision on reconsideration, explaining the basis for finding that the bidder did or did not meet the goal or make an adequate GFE to do so.

5. The result of the reconsideration process is not administratively appealable to the Department of Transportation.

The City' s March 21, 2022, letter to SEI was notification ofthe City' s determination and its right to reconsideration. SEI responded by email on March 21, 2022, requesting reconsideration and on March 28, 2022, provided the City with a written argument that it made an adequate GFE to meet the goal. The City acknowledged SEI' s request for reconsideration and began the reconsideration process as provided in the City' s letter to SEI, which was dated April 1, 2022.

The reconsideration hearing was held on April 14, 2022, and in attendance were SEI, two Reconsideration Officials ( Officials), and staff. All parties agreed on the meeting format and presented positions regarding the SEI GFE to the Officials. After the reconsideration meeting, the Officials deliberated independently to make a final determination. The Officials' final determination concluded that SEI did not perform an adequate GFE to meet the DBE participation goal for the reasons identified in the final GFE determination letter to SEI dated Packet Pg. 677 Attachment: Previous Staff Report 02-06-24 (9.11(i)--Contractor's Control Termination with Abacus Construction, Inc.) Report to Redding City Council May 10, 2022
Re: 4. 11( a) --Award BS No. 5180, Eastside Road over Olney Creek Bridge Page 4 April 22, 2022. All correspondence is attached for reference. Therefore, SEI' s bid is deemed nonresponsive to the bid solicitation. It should be noted that a nonresponsive bid is not unusual in the industry, and in no way provides a reflection of the contractor' s ability to perform the work, nor does it reflect the quality of work or affect the ability to bid on future public works projects.

The City proceeded to evaluate the second low bidder, Abacus, of Redding, California in the amount of $3, 703, 683. 84. The City reviewed Abacus' s proposal and DBE commitment form.

Abacus achieved a 23. 18 percent participation goal, thereby exceeding the project goal of 19 percent. Since Abacus met the project DBE goal, the CFR does not require the bidder to submit a GFE, although one was provided by Abacus. Staff recommends awarding the project to the second low bidder, Abacus Construction, Inc. The engineer' s estimate was $ 2, 929, 351. 1. 7. Total project development costs for this project are estimated to be $ 645, 000. Project development costs include engineering, surveying, right- of-way, environmental, and consultant services.

This project includes the replacement of the Eastside Road bridge over Olney Creek and the rehabilitation of the approach roadway. The work will include removal of the existing bridge in stages, construction of a new bridge over two summer seasons, construction of retaining walls, sidewalk, curb and gutter, utility relocation, roadway construction, and other miscellaneous items of work.

On February 6, 2018, the Council adopted the Mitigated Negative Declaration ( MND) and the Mitigation Monitoring Program ( MMP) and approved the project, thereby satisfying the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15074 ( CEQA).

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Adopt Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Mitigation Monitoring Program, and approve the Eastside Road Bridge at Olney Creek Bridge Replacement Project as described. With this action, the City of Redding will be in compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA Guidelines §15074).

Fiscal Impact
Adoption of the Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Mitigation Monitoring Program allows the project to move forward toward the final design and construction phases. There is no fiscal impact as a direct result of adopting the Mitigated Negative Declaration, and Mitigation Monitoring Program.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) can choose to not adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration. Without approval of the Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Mitigation Monitoring Program, the project would not proceed forward as a City project, as it would be out of compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

Background/Analysis
The City’s Public Works Department proposes to replace the existing 30-foot wide, 70-foot long, three span bridge on Eastside Road over Olney Creek. The new 52-foot wide, 86-foot long, three span cast-in-place concrete slab bridge will meet current design standards and hydraulic capacity needs. The new roadway approach will include two 12-foot wide travel lanes, eight foot wide shoulders, and six foot wide sidewalks on Eastside Road. The proposed sidewalk on the east side of the road will connect to an existing sidewalk in the southeastern corner of the project area.

Re: 4.11(c)--Adoption of Eastside Road Bridge over Olney Creek MND Page 2 Approaching roadwork will extend approximately 200-feet to the south, and up to 300-feet to the north of the bridge. Construction of the proposed project would require two seasons; beginning in the spring of 2019, with completion by late Fall 2020.

The bridge foundation system will likely consist of spread footings supporting the pier walls and cast-in-drilled-hole (CIDH) piles at the abutments. If CIDH piles are used, pile driving will not be necessary. However, driven piles may be needed to support falsework. If pile driving is used, it would occur during the dry summer months when water would likely be absent from the channel. If water is present during construction, a temporary stream diversion using standard culverts and rounded fish gravel would be used during construction. The spread footing would require an excavation of 6 to 8-feet in the channel, and the bridge abutments would be armored with rock slope protection (RSP). The new abutments would sit above the flow line, with two piers in the channel. Approximately 180 cubic yards of ¼ ton RSP would be placed around the bridge abutments, of which approximately 160 cubic yards would be placed below the ordinary high water mark.

Utilities, including a 10-inch gas line and a 10-inch water line, will be relocated from the existing bridge structure to the new bridge structure. Overhead utilities will not require relocation. An existing storm drain that currently discharges into the creek at the northwest corner of the bridge will be reconstructed through the new bridge abutment. The storm drain will outlet at the northern abutment and onto the RSP, which would dissipate flow energy.

Staged construction will be used to build the bridge. Traffic controls, such as a temporary signal or one way traffic control, will be used to maintain traffic flow through the project area.

Alternative routes such as SR 273 and South Bonnyview Road will be available during construction. The contractor staging area will be located on the abandoned road extension immediately north of the bridge. Temporary construction easements would be required for the project.

An Initial Study (IS) was prepared to satisfy the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). It describes why the Project is being proposed and the potential impacts to the existing environment. The IS shows that the proposed Project could have a significant effect on biological resources, but with implementation of mitigation measures, those impacts will be reduced to a level considered less than significant. The mitigation measures and conservation measures to be implemented are common practices and include, but are not limited to, biological pre-construction surveys, in-water work windows, impact minimization, exclusionary fencing, erosion control, and on-site plant restoration.

Based on the conclusions made in the IS, a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) was prepared. The MND describes the project, including mitigation measures, and makes the determination that there will be no significant effect on the environment provided that the defined mitigation measures are implemented as part of the project.

In addition, a Mitigation and Monitoring Program (MMP) has been written and incorporated into the MND (CEQA Section 21081.6). The MMP will be used by City staff, contractors, agencies, and monitoring personnel during and after the project to ensure effective implementation of the adopted mitigation measures outlined in the MND.

Re: 4.11(c)--Adoption of Eastside Road Bridge over Olney Creek MND Page 3 The IS, MND, and MMP documents were sent to the State Clearinghouse for a 30-day public review period before distribution to pertinent state agencies. They were sent to local resource agencies and the Shasta County Clerk, and posted on the Public Works Department website. A public notice was also sent to landowners in the vicinity of the project and posted in the local newspaper. No comments were received during the public comment period.

The City of Redding is the lead agency for the Project pursuant to CEQA. As the lead CEQA agency, the City Council is authorized to adopt the MND per Redding Municipal Code Section §18.24.070.E and state law. Upon adoption of the MND and approval of the project by the City Council, a Notice of Determination will be filed with the Shasta County Clerk’s Office and the State Clearinghouse, completing the environmental review process. The IS and MND are available in the City Clerk’s office for review.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following actions:
(1) Offer an Ordinance amending Redding Municipal Code (RMC) Title 2 (Administration and Personnel), to modify, Chapter 2.04.010 (City Council Compensation), increasing the monthly salary, for first reading by title only and waive the full reading; (2) Authorize the City Clerk to publish the ordinance in accordance with law; and (3) Find that the action is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, pursuant to section 15061(b)(3) – Common Sense Exemption.

Background/Analysis
Effective January 1, 2024, the California Legislature updated the salary limits for city council members in general law cities. These salaries are primarily set by ordinances adopted by the council, pursuant to authorization and limits set by statute. Under Government Code section 36516, councils may set salaries at or below specified limits based on the population of their city.

Salaries may only exceed these limits: (1) if submitted to and approved by the voters at any municipal election; or (2) by charter. As of January 1, 2024, those limits are:
(A) $950 per month, for a city of population of 35,000 or less; (B) $1,275 per month, for a city of population over 35,000 and less than 50,000; (C) $1,600 per month, for a city of population over 50,000 and less than 75,000; (D) $1,900 per month, for a city of population over 75,000 and less than 150,000; (E) $2,550 per month, for a city of population over 150,000 and less than 250,000; and MEETING DATE: November 19, 2024

Attorney
Packet Pg. 694
Report to Redding City Council November 15, 2024
Re: 9.14(a)--Offer City Council Compensation Ordinance for First Reading by Title Only Page 2 (F) $3,200 per month, for a city of population over 250,000.

These limits increase by an amount equal to inflation from January 1, 2024, based on the California Consumer Price Index, with a maximum adjustment of 10 percent per year.

Alternatively, a new ordinance can authorize an increase beyond the inflation-adjust limit if it would provide a raise of no more than five percent per year above the last salary approved by ordinance.

Based on Redding’s population, the maximum salary that the City Council can enact without voter approval is $1,900 per month. If the City Council desires to set a new salary within this limit, it must do so by ordinance. Unlike most ordinances, both the first and second reading must occur at a regular meeting. Moreover, the ordinance cannot provide for any automatic future increases. Once adopted, the increased salaries will phase into effect as each council seat begins a new term. The $1,900 maximum salary is inclusive of any benefits that the City Council receives in excess of the balance of City of Redding unrepresented employees. Therefore, depending on the action taken by the City Council, the Employment and Benefit Policies for Unrepresented Employees may need to be updated to reflect the change.

This is not a project defined under the California Environmental quality Act, and no further action is required.
