RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT
Community Development Director, Rodney Horton explained the purpose of this item would be adopting resolution number 2023-050 which would approve the environmental assessment number 2023-06 and denying the appeal and upholding the action of the Planning Commission. This would deny tentative parcel map application 2022-03 which pertains to authorizing the subdivision ofan existing 4.8 acre parcel located at 8350 S. Frankwood Avenue into four parcels for future single-unit and multi-unit residential development: As a condition for approval of the tentative map application, the City of Reedley required, and the applicant opposed, construction of a road extending North East Avenue north through parcel 4 as well as East Evergreen Avenue west through parcel 4 to provide public access the subject parcel. Construction and dedication of public infrastructure are a standard requirement. The applicant wants to offer dedication of the future roadway to the city of Reedley but does not want to construct the road until the proposed parcel #4 is completed. Since it is possible that parcel #4 would never develop, and as a result the road would not be built.

On June 14, 2023 the item was heard before the Reedley Planning Commission. At that meeting the Reedley Planning Commission unanimously denied the tentative parcel map. On June 26, 2023 the applicant submitted an appeal with the City Clerk.

Nick Sahota with Central Valley Engineering and Surveying spoke regarding the project.

TITLE: APPROVE AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO SIGN AN AGREEMENT WITH PRECISION CIVIL ENGINEERING, INC. TO PERFORM

ON-CALL PROFESSIONAL SERVICES FOR THE COMMUNITY

DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT AS NEEDED
SUBMITTED: Rodney L. Horton
Community Developme t Director
APPROVED: Nicole R. Zieba
City Manager

RECOMMENDATION
Approve and authorize the City Manager to sign an agreement with Precision Civil Engineering, Inc. to perform on-call professional services for the Community Development Department as needed.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Community Development Department consists of the Planning and Building Divisions.

Each division is responsible for highly technical and complex assignments associated with the approval and development of structures within the community. On-call consultant assistance is needed when workload capacity may impact the Department's responsiveness to certain development projects. The Department remains fully to processing entitlement applications in a timely fashion.

The Department desires to ensure quality customer service to the residents and development community by having an additional professional service provider. Staff does anticipate utilizing the services of Precision Civil Engineering, Inc. due to consistently strong development activity projected to continue for at least the next two years.

ENVIRONMENTAL FINDINGS
Staff has conducted a review and has determined that it is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3) under the common sense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Because the proposed action is for Council to

authorize the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Precision Civil Engineering, Inc. to provide on-call professional services, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that providing an agreement with Precision Civil Engineering, Inc. may have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, this action is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 (b )(3).

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no negative impact to the City given that the costs of service are determined perproject, and are paid by the applicant needing their entitlement application approved.

SCOPE OF SERVICES

SPEC/LIZA TIONS AND SERVICES WE PROVIDE
CURRENT PLANNING SERVICES f PCE staff has experience processing various types of planning entitlement applications from zone clearances to plan amendments and tract maps for large-scale development project s. We have a strong understanding of the planning process including understanding how to implement complex development codes and general plans at the project level.

We wi ll follow the protocols outlined by your governing agency to make sure projects are processed consistently and accurately. However, if there is no established procedure for a project type or process, we have the experience and expertise to be able to write up a procedure. We can see a project through completion, including presenting at Planning Commission and City Council if needed.

Our experience working directly on entitlements and supervising the process puts us a step ahead of most firms. Our services include:
• Site Plan Reviews • Rezone applications
• Tentative Tract Maps and Subdivisions • Area Plan and Specific Plans • Variance applications • Annexations and Pre-Zones
• Staff Reports, Resolutions, and Ordinances • ADU Ordinances and Pre-approved Programs • Conditional Use Permits • Zoning Text Amendments

We have prepared several ADU programs throughout the state to address the housing crisis and encourage the development of secondary dwelling units. PCE is well versed in state legislation pertaining to housing, including SB2, SB9, SB10, and SB330.

Since 2020, PCE has worked with six (6) local agencies to implement ADU and multi-family Programs including the City of Oakley, City of Clayton, City of Kerman, Fresno Council of Governments, City of Arvin, and City of Salinas. Each of these projects have included the preparation of pre-approved plans and visual guides to encourage the development of ADUs. For the Cities of Arvin, Salinas and San Clemente, our work related to Housing Element Implementation has included the rezoning of multiple sites and the preparation of several CEQA documents related to these rezone applications.

PCE is also amending the Municipal Code in the cities of San Clemente and Arvin to streamline the review of multi-family projects. Examples of types of assistance PCE can provide include the following:
• ADU programs
• Multifamily streamlining and facilitation programs
• Text amendments increasing or eliminating density caps • Text Amendments to create streamlined review process
• Creation of Object Design Guidelines
• Creation of public facing, graphic-rich guide documents • Creation of design surveys to solicit input for the public • Clearing housing projects through the CEQA process

SPEC/LIZA TIONS AND SERVICES WE PROVIDE
CEQA/NEPA ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENTS AND TECHNICAL STUDIES I PCE prepares environmental documents for development and public improvement projects in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA).

Additionally, in creating accessory dwelling unit (ADU) programs from scratch in several cities, PCE has prepared workshops for commissioners and councilmembers to ensure all city staff is trained on the new policies and provide the necessary instruction to implement a successful policy. The PCE team regularly presents at conferences and webinars to share best practices and lessons learned from working on different types of projects in cities throughout the state.

MANAGEMENT APPROACH

PROJECT AND MANAGEMENT APPROACH
Project Management is a central and critical component of PCE's approach to completing the project on time and within budget. Our approach to projects is grounded in principles of flexibility, transparency, and accountability. We operate from a structured yet flexible framework wherein our team builds a work program that incorporates the needs of the city and stakeholders while subsequently allowing for quick adjustments and adaptability when needed. PCE's Project Manager, Mrs. Emerson will work closely with the City of Reedley's Project Manager. PCE's approach, tools, and procedures for successful project management are outlined as follows. To ensure that projects will continue to move forward in an efficient and timely manner, for each individual project, PCE will:
• Host Kick-Off Meeting with the City team.
• Establish File Setup, Communications, and Management Systems (e.g. teleconference or web-based meeting applications, Drop Box, One Drive, etc.).
• Update Work Program and Schedule as needed.
• Establish a re-occurring meeting schedule (e.g. bi-weekly, monthly). • Provide monthly progress/status reports and invoices.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT TOOLS
• Consistent email subject lines.
• Standardized document formats, templates, and style guides. • Agendas and minutes as needed.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT APPROACH
Understanding unique scope. PCE understands that individual projects need to include different approaches, processes, and technical studies. Though PCE has extensive experience in our provided services, we understand the importance to include the city's and specific site conditions to plan for a tailored and feasible work scope to ensure that each project is carried out as needed. PCE will provide the City with an Approach Memo and have lively discussions to ensure that the direction we take is based on clear City input and direction informed by PCE's research and recommendations, depending on the type of project.

Establishing effective communication throughout the project. PCE believes that one of the most critical issues for a project is effective communication with clients. PCE will establish regular working meetings with the City of Reedley for progress updates, detailed responsibility breakdowns, and discussion on possible concerns. PCE will also communicate with State or other entities, such as HCD, to ensure there is a unified understanding among all parties.

Ensure quality and ability to meet deadlines. PCE has established a vigorous and extensive quality control program that is structured to ensure project timelines and budgets are met, as follows:
• Documents, notices, and maps are reviewed to ensure that they are neat in appearance, well organized, and technically and grammatically correct prior to submission. • Public/City comments are reviewed prior to revisions being made and fully addressed. • A Senior Planner level or higher will review all documents before sending to the City for review . . -=RE CJ.510 1\. -~·"'\.

TITLE: APPROVE AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH PALM VILLAGE
RETIREMENT COMMUNITY TO ADOPT A MEDIAN.

SUBMITTED: Russ Robertson, Public Works Director ~ Heather Kredit, Senior Management alys~ APPROVED: Nicole R. Zieba, City Manager

RECOMMENDATION
Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute a Memorandum Of Understanding with Palm Village Retirement Community to adopt a median.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Palm Village is a community for senior living that is located at 703 W. Herbert in Reedley.

Several years ago Palm Village approached the City with the idea of "adopting" the median island located at the intersecting corners of I street, Reed Ave., and 7th street. Palm Village agreed to rehabilitate the median island and provide on-going maintenance to the landscape in exchange for the placement of an organization recognition sign. The City entered into an informal agreement with Palm Village as a trial project to evaluate the potential success and benefits to the City. The trial project has proven to be successful and the City and Palm Village have been in discussions to once again re-work the median island to provide new drought tolerant plants and landscape. Staff would like to enter into a formal MOU with Palm Village to provide a clear understanding and document the responsibilities of each party. Palm Village will pay all costs for the upgrades to the median island which will beautify the median for the enjoyment of the public, and will then assume maintenance responsibilites of the island which will equate to maintenance cost savings to the City. In exchange, Palm Village will be permitted to place an organization recognition sign in the median island. Exact design and location of the sign is to be approved by the City before placement.

FISCAL IMPACT

(B) Adopt Resolution No. 2023-065, awarding a construction contract to Emmett Valley Construction for CDBG project no. 21571 , E Street reconstruction from Tenth Street to Twelfth Street.

The Project will be fully funded by CDBG funds and if any additional funds are required -for this project, Measure C Street Maintenance funds will be allocated towards the Project.

The Project is located on E Street from Tenth Street and Twelfth Street and includes the following major construction items: roadway reconstruction, installation of ADA compliant driveway approaches, ramps and sidewalks, pavement delineation and minor storm drain items.

In conjunction with the requested budget amendment, Staff is requesting that Council adopt Resolution No. 2023-065 awarding the Project to Emmett Valley Construction in the amount of $319,711.00 and authorize the City Manager to execute the Public Improvement Agreement for the Project. Execution of the Agreement is subject to the submittal of the necessary bonds, insurance certificates and other necessary documents as required by the specifications, special provisions for this project and State law.

Staff is also requesting that a contingency of 10% of the base bid, or $31,971.10 be included in the Council action to cover any unforeseen incidentals.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND
The City of Reedley and County of Fresno entered into Agreement 23-432 for the Project on August 22, 2023. The scope of work for the Project includes, in general, roadway reconstruction, installation of ADA compliant driveway approaches, ramps and sidewalks, pavement delineation and minor storm drain items.

On April 6, 2023, a Notice to Bidders for the Project was advertised in Mid-Valley Times, the City website, and on local builders exchanges for a period of approximately three (3) weeks. During the bidding period, six (6) contractors requested bid documents from the City for this project. Two (2) addenda were issued during the project bidding period for the mandatory 10-day federal wage check as required for Davis-Bacon Act prevailing wage compliance and to provide the geotechnical report to contractors.

On April 25, 2023, City staff conducted the bid opening for this project where five (5) bids were received, opened, and read aloud. The bids received for the total Base Bid ranged from $319,711.00 to $509,532.00 as shown in the attached Bid Tabulation. The engineer's estimate of probable cost for the Base Bid was $586,208.00.

The Project's construction award was postponed because the County's environmental clearance took longer than expected. The County was unable to finalize Agreement 23-432 without obtaining environmental clearance, and the City could not award the contract until the Agreement was executed.

PRIOR COUNCIL ACTIONS
Resolution No. 2023-023 authorizing the execution of the City-County Agreement for Community Development Block Grant Project No. 21571, E Street Reconstruction from Tenth Street to Twelfth Street.

FISCAL IMPACT
The total authorization request for the construction contract is $319,711.00 with an additional contingency amount of $31,971.10 for a total of $351,682.10. There is no impact to the General Fund as the project is funded-with CDBG.

TITLE: ADOPT ORDINANCE NO. 2023-008, AN URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE

CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REEDLEY TEMPORARILY PLACING A

MORATORIUM ON THE ESTABLISHMENT OF ANY NEW USES

CONCERNING WAREHOUSING AND OR LABORATORIES WITH
BIOSAFETY LEVELS (BSL) 2 THROUGH 4 WITHIN THE CITY.

SUBMITTED: Rodney L. Horton ;f/~
Community Develfs~nWirector
APPROVED: Nicole R. Zieba
City Manager

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council adopt Urgency Ordinance No. 2023-008, placing a temporary moratorium on the establishment of any new uses concerning warehousing and/or laboratories with Biosafety Levels 2 through 4, exempting CUA (Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments) regulated businesses.

BACKGROUND
In December 2022, the City's code enforcement officer, following up on anonymous complaint about a business operating without a permit, found an unpermitted storage of laboratory mice, biological agents, chemicals, and medical equipment. While this business was clearly illicit and operating outside the bounds of current municipal, State, and federal laws, it has highlighted a need for the City to look into zoning regulations for legally operating businesses that may house infectious substances. Staff is preparing to research land use restrictions and licensure requirements as it pertains to the storage, production, warehousing, and manufacture of products and materials that include Biosafety Levels (as defined in the Urgency Ordinance).

The adopted City of Reedley 2030 General Plan, Section 2.9 Community Health, requires that the City protect the public health, safety, and welfare of its citizens through the implementation of land use plans, policies, and programs to meet the needs of its community.

Local land use decisions play an important role in promoting good health for its citizens and shaping the pattern of community development. The City is also responsible for discouraging

land use decisions that lead to poor community health outcomes. Currently, the City of Reedley does not have regulations specific to biological storage and or research activities that include Biosafety Levels. Additionally, the City does not have any restrictions in the Zoning Code governing the location of such uses in relation to sensitive uses, such as residential neighborhoods, schools, parks, essential government offices, structures, and facilities, businesses, and health care facilities.

The zoning code update kicked off on January 25, 2022, when the City Council held a public workshop to begin the process of a comprehensive update to the code. Since that time, staff has undertaken efforts with the consultant to draft the proposed code regulations that address numerous items such as compliance with various newly enacted state housing laws, updated regulations pertaining to daycare centers, adherence with the federal Religious Land Use And Institutionalized Persons Act, and providing for the regulation of smoke shops.

Staff is recommending that the City Council make certain findings and adopt regulations in Urgency Ordinance No. 2023-008 that will direct staff not to issue any new business licenses, accept any new site plan review applications, conditional use permit applications, and or administrative review applications for uses that involve the warehousing and/or research activities of laboratories with Biosafety Levels (SSL) 2 through 4. It is important to note that SSL 1 substances are substances known to not be hazardous to human health, and therefore, will not be impacted by this urgency ordinance. Furthermore, the urgency ordinance prohibits the relocation of such an existing fully permitted and licensed use to a site that is within 1-mile of a sensitive use as described above.

Government Code section 65858 allows a city that is in the process of updating its zoning code to pass an urgency measure to protect the public safety, health, and welfare while the zoning code update is being contemplated. As an Urgency Ordinance under the provisions of California Government Code section 65858, these temporary regulations would take effect immediately. Urgency Ordinances are valid for forty-five (45) days from their adoption. The City may renew the Urgency Ordinance twice, both times by a four-fifths supermajority of the City Council, for a total of two years. The first renewal may be for up to ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days, the remainder of one year after the first forty-five (45)-day period has passed. The second renewal may be for up to one year. This timeline will give the Council ample time to ensure that any potential land use regulations regarding warehousing and or laboratories with Biosafety Levels 2 through 4 are considered in the new zoning code.

ENVIRONMENTAL FINDINGS
Staff has conducted a review and has determined that this ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3) under the common sense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Because the proposed action is for Council to approve an urgency ordinance moratorium on the establishment of any new warehousing and or laboratories with Biosafety Levels, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the urgency ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, this action is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3).

FISCAL IMPACT
There are no direct or indirect negative impact(s) to the City's General Fund associated with the City Council adopting Urgency Ordinance No. 2023-008.

AN URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

REEDLEY, CALIFORNIA, TEMPORARILY PLACING A MORATORIUM ON

THE ESTABLISHMENT OF ANY NEW USES CONCERNING WAREHOUSING AND/OR LABORATORIES WITH BIOSAFETY LEVELS (BSL) 2 THROUGH 4

WITHIN THE CITY
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REEDLEY DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Consistent with its control over municipal affairs and authority to take urgency measures prohibiting a use that may be in conflict with a contemplated general plan, specific plan, or zoning proposal, and through the powers vested in the City of Reedley pursuant to California Constitution Article XI, Section 7 and Government Code section 65858, the City of Reedley is authorized to secure and promote the public health, safety, and welfare of its citizenry. The City Council of the City of Reedley hereby makes the following findings:

A. The Adopted City of Reedley 2030 General Plan, Section 2.9 Community Health, requires that the City protect the public health, safety, and welfare of its citizens, and specifically sets goals and policies relating to utilizing its land use decisions to promote community health and discourage land uses that lead to poor community health outcomes.

B. The City of Reedley Zoning Ordinance considers certain land uses, as defined in Section I A, to be Sensitive Uses, and restricts some types of activities within specified distance of Sensitive Uses.

C. Due to a recent unprecedented incident that occurred within the City of Reedley, the City Council desires to refine the zoning ordinance's regulations on laboratories, warehousing, and storage of medical chemicals, biological agents, medical devices, medical waste, and/or laboratory animal testing facilities to provide further protection and safeguards to the residents of Reedley, especially its most vulnerable community members.

D. Laboratories providing for medical testing and diagnostics are currently allowed under the City of Reedley Zoning Ordinance within the PO (Professional Office) zone district, C-AO (Administrative and Office) zone district, CC (Central and Community Commercial) zone district, and ML (Light Industrial) zone district. There is currently no restriction governing the location of such uses in relation to Sensitive Uses as defined in Section IC. of this Ordinance.

E. The City of Reedley City Council, on January 25th• 2022, at a regularly scheduled Council meeting, held a "kick off' workshop to begin the process of a comprehensive Zoning Ordinance update. The City Council now finds and declares that allowing additional laboratories, warehousing, and storage of medical chemicals, biological agents, medical devices, medical waste, and/or laboratory animal testing facilities to open within the City of Reedley, whether near a Sensitive Use or not, may potentially be in conflict with regulations and land use updates that may be adopted in a new Zoning Ordinance.

Ordinance No. 2023-008

F. Further the City Council finds and declares that approving City business licenses to allow additional laboratories, warehousing, and storage of medical chemicals, biological agents, medical devices, medical waste, and/or laboratory animal testing facilities would be in conflict with the stated goals of the City of Reedley General Plan and Zoning Ordinance to preserve and promote the public's welfare of the city by creating conditions that reduce or eliminate the potential threats to the public's health and safety, particularly the most vulnerable members of the community such as children and youth.

G. This Urgency Ordinance is necessary to promote the immediate preservation of the health, safety, and welfare of the public against the potential detrimental health impacts of additional laboratories, warehousing, and storage of medical chemicals, biological agents, medical devices, medical waste, and/or laboratory animal testing facilities, in order to allow the City an opportunity to study this issue and develop and adopt additional appropriate regulations for the location of such uses.

H. The City Council finds and declares that the zoning regulations on laboratories, warehousing, and storage of medical chemicals, biological agents, medical devices, medical waste, and/or laboratory animal testing facilities shall be adopted on an interim and immediate basis to protect the public health, safety, and welfare of the community while permanent regulations are analyzed and reviewed in additional detail.

I. In accordance with Government Code section 65858, Urgency Ordinances are valid for forty-five (45) days from their adoption. The City Council may renew the Urgency Ordinance twice, by a four-fifths supermajority vote of the City Council. The first renewal expires after ten (I 0) months and fifteen (15) days, the remainder of one year after the first 45-day period. The second renewal may be in place for up to one year.

SECTION 2. For purposes of this Ordinance, the following definitions shall apply:

A. "Biological Agent" shall be defined as "a microorganism or infectious substance, or any naturally occurring, bioengineered or synthesized component of any such microorganism or infectious substance up to and including Risk Groups 1 - 4 classifications as defined by the National Institute of Health (NIH) or the United States Center for Disease Control (CDC)." B. "Biosafety Level" (BSL) shall be defined as "the four ascending levels of containment precautions, referred to as Biosafety Levels 1 through 4, required to isolate dangerous biological agents in an enclosed laboratory facility as set forth in the most current edition of Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL) published by the U.S.

Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and National Institutes of Health (NIH), based on the primary risk criteria of infectivity, severity of disease, transmissibility, and the nature of the work being conducted.

Each level of containment describes the microbiological practices, safety equipment, and facility safeguards for the corresponding level of risk associated with handling an agent." C. "Sensitive Uses" shall be defined as "religious institution, post-secondary educational institution, public education facility, school, regularly established boys' club or girls' club or any public building regularly frequented by children, essential government operation, Ordinance No. 2023-008
Page2 of4
facility, and/or structure, public park, community center, senior center, public trail or public building; or a residential zone district."
SECTION 3. While this interim ordinance is in effect, the following regulatory standards shall apply as additional limitations under the Reedley Zoning Ordinance on the permissible location of "existing laboratories, warehousing, and storage of medical chemicals, biological agents, medical devices, medical waste, and/or laboratory animal testing facilities." Businesses that are already operating with a valid City of Reedley Business License and/or approved entitlement application that has been issued or approved prior to the date of this interim ordinance may continue to operate outside these regulatory limitations as they would constitute legal non-conforming use.

A. There shall be no City of Reedley Business License, Site Plan Review Approval, Conditional Use Permit, and/or Administrative Review Approval issued for any new laboratories, warehousing, and/or storage of medical chemicals, biological agents, medical devices, medical waste, and/or laboratory animal testing facilities with any agents on Biosafety Levels 2 through 4 in the City of Reedley.

B. Licensed labs, hospitals, and/or medical clinics regulated under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA) shall be exempt from this ordinance.

C. Existing laboratories, warehousing, and/or storage of medical chemicals, biological agents, medical devices, medical waste, and/or laboratory animal testing facilities with Biosafety Levels shall not be permitted to relocate to a site that would be located within one-square mile of a Sensitive Use as defined by this Ordinance.

SECTION 4. If any section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase of this Ordinance, or its application to any person or circumstances, is for any reason held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining sections, subsections, subdivision, paragraphs, sentences, clauses or phrases of this Ordinance, or its application to any other person or circumstance. The City Council of the City of Reedley hereby declares that it would have adopted each section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause, or phrase hereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more other sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses, or phrases hereof be declared invalid or unenforceable.

SECTION 5. This Ordinance shall take effect immediately as an interim ordinance under the provisions of California Government Code section 65858. It shall be of no further force and effect forty-five (45) days from its adoption unless it is extended pursuant to Government Code section 65858(a).

SECTION 6. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Ordinance and shall cause the same to be published or posted as required by law.

APPROVED: Nicole R. Zieba
City Manager

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council take the following actions pertaining to design and placement of a mural on the south-facing wall and east-facing wall of the Reedley Museum building, located at 1752 10th Street:
a) Adopt Environmental Assessment No. 2023-01 , making a Finding of No Possibility of a Significant Effect, and declaring the activity is not subject to CEQA; and b) Approve Sign Permit Application 2023-02, placement of a painted mural on the southfacing wall and east-facing wall of the Reedley Museum building, located at 1752 10th Street Reedley, CA 93654.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND
Since 2021, the City of Reedley has undertaken efforts to enhance the downtown area by replacing lighting, installing benches, enhancing public parking facilities, installing parking signs, and commissioning the placement of murals on buildings. The City is proposing to install a mural depicting the arrival of the first train in Reedley at the Union Pacific depot in 1888. Ironically, 1888 is also the year Reedley is named in honor of founder Thomas Law Reed. The development of the rail line expanded means of transportation for people and product, and it also grew the local economy. The mural is proposed to go on the south-facing wall of the Reedley Museum. The City is proposing to add a second mural to the east-facing wall that depicts the new public parking signs recently installed in the downtown area. The second mural will serve as wayfinding signage for the existing parking lot in the rear of the Museum.

PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW
Reedley Municipal Code 10-14-10H stipulates that the Planning Commission hold a public hearing for proposed design and placement of murals within the community, prior to City Council considering approval of such items. A notice was mailed to property owners within 350' of the effected property on January 25, 2023, and a notice was published in the Mid Valley Times on February 2, 2023. On February 16, 2023, the Planning Commission held a public hearing prior to acting on the item. There was no public comment. After the public hearing was closed, the Planning Commission, via Resolution No. 2023-04 (Attachment 1), recommends that the City Council adopt Environmental Assessment No. 2023-01 and approve Sign Application No. 2023-02.
