TITLE: RECOMMENDATION OF REJECTION OF COMPANION CLAIMS- FATIMA
PEREZ, FREDY PEREZ-GARCIA, GRIZELDA FLORES-BERNADINO, AND
KIMBERLY PEREZ
SUBMITTED: Amar Bains, Accountant ~ ·
REVIEWED: Paul A. Melikian, Assistant City Manag
APPROVED: Nicole R. Zieba. City Manager
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council reject the claims received from Fatima Perez, Fredy Perez-Garcia, Grizelda FloresBernadino, and Kimberly Perez on November 09, 2023. The claims were referred to Acclamation Insurance Management Services (AIMS) for investigation and recommendation to the City.
BACKGROUND
According to the Claim Forms filed by B&D Law Group APLC on behalf of their clients listed above, on May 14, 2023 City of Reedley failed to properly manage, oversee and maintain traffic signals near E.
Manning Ave and N. Buttonwillow Ave. The claims allege that non-operational traffic signals led to a collision between claimants' vehicle and another vehicle and thus, City is liable for the damages and injuries sustained by the claimants.
Based upon their investigation, AIMS revealed that lights were set to flash red at the request of Yanez Construction Inc. , a private construction company relative to Encroachment Permit No. 2023-0068.
Pursuant to this permit, General Provisions, #14 Liability for Damages: which reads, "Any liability resulting from personal injury or property damage that may occur while performing the work herein permitted shall be the responsibility of the Permittee. In the event a claim is made against the City of Reedley or its' employees due to the failure of the Permittee to perform his or her obligations written in this permit, the Permittee shall defend, indemnify, and hold them harmless of such a claim ." AIMS has therefore recommended that claims be rejected and tendered to Yanez Construction, Inc.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 912.4, the City Council must act upon a claim within 45 days after receipt. If there is no official action by Council, the claim is deemed to be rejected on the last day.
Denial by minute order action provides a clearly defined rejection date and allows AIMS to begin their investigation and take appropriate action to resolve the claim in a timely manner.

TITLE: APPROVE PROPERTY TAX ALLOCATION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE
CITY OF REEDLEY AND THE FRESNO COUNTY FIRE PROTECTION
DISTRICT
APPROVED:
City

Manager
R. Zieba 3/ /', ~
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council approve the tax sharing agreement between the City of Reedley and the Fresno County Fire Protection District for equitable allocation of tax revenues after property has been annexed from the County of Fresno into the City of Reedley.
BACKGROUND
When property is annexed into the City of Reedley (City) jurisdiction from the County of Fresno (County), the property taxes for the subject area that were previously paid to the County of Fresno are paid to the City. A portion of those property taxes that were collected when the property was under County jurisdiction are remitted to the Fresno County Fire Protection District (District) for fire related services. When annexations occur, the District loses important revenue that helps to fund its stations, and provide for staffing and equipment. In order to ensure an orderly transition of services, staffing, and the planning of future stations, all cities within or adjacent to the District's service territory have a Property Tax Allocation Agreement between the parties that outlines how property tax is to be allocated for a defined transitional period of time between the parties after property is annexed into a city.
The City's Agreement with the District was last negotiated and approved in 2013 and has an expiration date of December 31, 2023. The City and District have communicated about a new Agreement. Both parties believe that the terms of the previous Agreement have been beneficial and both desire to execute a new ten-year Agreement with substantially the same terms as the previous Agreement. If approved by both the City Council and the District Board, the new Agreement will be effective as of January 1, 2024, and will remain in effect through December 31, 2033.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Agreement calls for a Base Year Allocation (BYA) to be established for each property that is annexed into the City. The BYA represents the share of property tax revenue that the District has been receiving from that property. For a period of ten years, the City remits that BYA to the District upon receiving property tax revenue from the County each year. The BYA increases by 2% each year for that ten year period. At the end of the ten year period, the City's obligation to remit revenue to the District ceases for that parcel and the City retains the revenue for that parcel from that point forward.

Draft Property Tax Allocation Agreement Between the City of Reedley and the Fresno County Fire Protection District
PROPERTY TAX ALLOCATION
AGREEMENT BETWEEN
THE CITY OF REEDLEY
AND
THE FRESNO COUNTY FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT
This Property Tax Allocation Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into and effective ______ , 2023 ("Effective Date"), between the City of Reedley, a California municipal corporation ("City") and the Fresno County Fire Protection District ("District"), a local fire protection district organized and existing as a California Special District under provisions of the Fire Protection District Law of 1987 (Health & Safety Code Section 13800 et seq.,) with respect to the following Recitals, which are incorporated as a substantive part of this Agreement.
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the District is the primary provider of fire suppression, prevention, rescue, emergency medical services and hazardous material emergency response and other services relating to the protection of lives and property ("Fire Protection Services") within its territorial limits, which includes areas near the incorporated centers of the County of Fresno ("County"), including the City. Current District boundaries are reflected in Exhibit 1, attached and incorporated by this reference.
The District also provides Fire Protection Services to certain incorporated cities and substantial portions of unincorporated areas within the County; and WHEREAS, the City is the provider of Fire Protection Services within its corporate limits; and
WHEREAS, the District's primary source of funding comes from general purpose ad valorum property tax revenue from all real property within its territory (property taxes); and
WHEREAS, from time to time in connection with proposed property development, territory within the District is annexed into the City and detached from the District. Although District no longer services properties that annex into the City and detach from the District, District wide service obligations and regional support are not reduced commensurately. To address the impact of the resulting loss of property tax revenue on District facilities, equipment and personnel and partially mitigate impacts upon the District from annexations and detachments, Fresno County Local Agency Formation Commission ("LAFCo") policy requires the City and District to reach an agreement governing the transition of Fire Protection Services: and WHEREAS, for the past 30 years District and the incorporated cities in the County have operated under transition agreements, the most recent covering the last
ten (10) years (the "2013 Transition Agreement"), under which City agreed to pay District a lump sum of money upon annexation and detachment of property reflecting a percentage of Property Taxes District would have received had the property not been annexed for a period of 10 years; and
WHEREAS, the District and City desire to enter into a new agreement under substantially the same terms, removing obsolete language, and providing for a new 10 year term with an option for the parties to extend the term for an additional 10 years; and
WHEREAS, the intent of this Agreement is to apply to all unincorporated areas that are within the jurisdictional boundaries of the District which may be subject to annexation to the City.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. Effect of Recitals. The foregoing Recitals are incorporated in, and are a part of th is Agreement.
2. Allocation and Payment of Property Taxes.
a) Upon the effective date of annexations/reorganizations of property ("Affected Territory") into the City and detachment of the Affected Territory from the District, the real property tax previously imposed on the Affected Territory, and collected and allocated by Fresno County for the benefit of the District ("Base Year Allocation" or "BYA") shall continue to be collected by the County from the City's portion of real property taxes, but paid to the City and the City shall allocate and pay the BYA for the Affected Territory to the District for a period of 10 years from the effective date of the specific reorganization. The BYA shall include any increase up to two percent (2%) per annum imposed by the County in accordance with the constitutional rate. Other than a potential up to 2% annual increase in the BYA, the District will not be eligible to receive any increase in the BY A.
For the purposes of this Agreement, the effective date of reorganizations and the date to be used for when the tax reallocation to District commences, shall be the date upon which the annexation of property is recorded with the County Recorder and California State Board of Equalization consistent with applicable law. The District shall be responsible for creating the tax allocation rate schedule and providing City with the tax allocation rate schedule for review and approval prior to District invoicing the City for the BYA. Exhibit 2, attached, and incorporated by this reference, sets forth an example of the tax allocation rate schedule. b) The District shall notice and invoice the City to pay the applicable BYA to the District in July of each year. Such notice shall include the applicable tax allocation
rate schedule showing the BYA due the District. City shall send the applicable payment to District within thirty (30) days after the City's receipt of the District's notice, invoice and tax allocation rate schedule. In the event the City does not pay to the District the applicable BYA due the District within said thirty (30) day period, the amount due the District shall be assessed interest at the legal rate commencing on the thirty first (31) day after the City's receipt of the District's notice and tax allocation rate schedule. The City's failure to make the allocated monetary payment amount due the District within the time period set forth in this subparagraph 2b. shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement. c) The City and District agree that if a tax allocation rate schedule for a reorganization identifies the total annual allocation of BYA over the 10-year allocation period, which includes the 2% annual constitutional rate increase, is less than $10,000, City will pay the entire 10-year allocation in one (1) lump sum at the time the first annual allocation payment is due under the applicable tax allocation rate schedule.
3. Term. The term of this Agreement shall be for a period of 10-years from the Effective Date, through December 31, 2033, and it shall replace in all respects the 2013 Transition Agreement between the parties, except that obligations which by the terms expressed herein are intended to continue beyond the term of this Agreement shall continue until satisfied. This Agreement may also be extended by an additional period of 10-years from the expiration date with the agreement of both District and City.
4. Effect of Annexations. Upon annexation of affected properties to City, those properties shall detach from the District, and all Property Taxes shall be allocated consistent with Agreement section 2 and existing laws, rules, policies and procedures established in the County, subject to any applicable agreement between City and the County.
5. LAFCo Compliance. District and City agree that this Agreement is intended to satisfy the intent and purpose of the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000.
6. Non-Opposition to Annexations. District represents and agrees that during the term of this Agreement, it will not oppose further annexation to the City. This District agreement does not extend to modifications to the City Sphere of Influence or required Municipal Service Reviews adopted by the Fresno County LAFCo.
7. Accounting. District and City agree that their designated representatives shall have the right to review and to copy any records and supporting documentation pertaining to the performance of this Agreement. District and City agree to maintain such records for a possible audit for a minimum of four (4) years from the recording date of an annexation to the City and to allow access to such records for an audit during normal business hours.
8. Termination.
a. Termination Upon Expiration. This Agreement shall terminate upon expiration of its Term, if not extended by agreement.
b. Termination Due to Invalidity. Should any material portion of this Agreement be declared invalid or inoperative by a court of competent jurisdiction, this entire Agreement as well as any ancillary documents entered into by the parties in order to fulfill the intent of this Agreement shall immediately be of no force and effect and this Agreement shall terminate in its entirety. c. Termination Due to Material Breach: Right to Cure. This Agreement may be terminated by either party for a material breach and a failure to cure that breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of a notice to cure. d. Termination Due to Change in Law. It is mutually understood and agreed that this Agreement shall terminate immediately and shall be of no further force and effect should substantial substantive changes occur in such statutory scheme or successor statutory schemes (whether by legislative or judicial action) which negate or frustrate the fundamental reasons or tenets of this Agreement, such termination to be in the entirety. Any party contending this section applies shall give written notice of termination pursuant to this section, which notice shall include an explanation of the reason(s) for such termination.
9. Renewal of Agreement. Within 60 days after the date of commencement of the ninth year of this Agreement, the District and the City will meet and negotiate in good faith, in an attempt to agree upon the terms and conditions of an extension of the Term of this Agreement for a period of 10 years consistent with applicable law at the time.
10. Remedies for Breach of Agreement. In addition to termination of this Agreement for a material breach, the parties may exercise any other remedy available to them at law or in equity, including specific performance, injunctive relief, and writ of mandate.
11. Dispute Resolution. If any dispute arises regarding the interpretation or application of this Agreement or any determination or calculation thereunder, the parties agree upon the request of either of them to meet and attempt to resolve the same amicably for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days.
If the dispute is not otherwise resolved, and absent the need for emergency relief or to meet a statute of limitations, the parties agree to enter into mediation before initiating litigation. The parties shall mutually agree upon a mediator and each party shall pay one half (1 /2) the cost of the mediator and bear their own costs for the mediation. The mediation shall be completed within sixty (60) days of notice of the intent to undergo mediation. If the mediation is not completed within sixty (60) days of notice, a party may initiate litigation. The parties shall act in good faith and with due diligence to timely complete the mediation.

mediation within sixty (60) days of the commencement of litigation as evidenced by the filing in court of a formal complaint, petition, or similar document.
12. Modification. This Agreement may be modified or amended only by a writing duly authorized and executed by the City and District.
13. Enforcement. The City and District each acknowledge that this Agreement cannot bind or limit themselves or each other or their future governing bodies in the exercise of their discretionary legislative power. However, each binds itself that it will insofar as is legally possible, fully carry out the intent and purposes hereof, if necessary, by administrative and ministerial action independent of that legislation power and that this Agreement may be enforced by injunction or mandate or other writ to the full extent allowed by law.
14. Integration. With respect to the subject matter hereof, this Agreement is intended to be an integrated agreement and supersedes any and all previous negotiations proposals, commitments, writings and understandings of any nature whatsoever between the City and the District as to the subject matter of this Agreement.

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council receive, review, and file the attached FY 2022-23 Annual Developer Impact Fee Report, in compliance with Government Code Section 66006(a) and (b). No action is required other than to receive, review, and file the report, which will also be uploaded to the Financial Information page of the City's website.
BACKGROUND
A Development Impact Fee is a monetary exaction other than a tax or special assessment that is charged by a local governmental agency to an applicant in connection with approval of a development project for the purpose of defraying all or a portion of the cost of public facilities related to the development project. (Gov't Code§ 66000(b).) Agencies that collect and utilize Developer Impact Fees are required to provide information on each fund or account established for the collection of impact fees.
Within 180 days after the last day of each fiscal year, this information must be made available to the public for the period covered by that fiscal year. The information must provide the following:
1. A brief description of the type of fee in the fund.
2. The amount of the fee.
3. The beginning and ending balances of the fund.
4. The amount of fees collected and the interest earned.
5. An identification of each public improvement on which fees were expended and the amount of expenditures on each improvement, including the total percentage of the improvement that was funded with Impact fees.
6. An identification of an approximate date by which the construction of the public improvement will commence if the City determines that sufficient funds have been collected to complete financing on an incomplete public improvement.
7. A description of each inter-fund transfer or loan made from the fund, including the public improvement on which the transferred or loaned fees were expended; and in the case of an interfund loan, the date on which the loan will be repaid and the rate of interest that will be received on the loan.
8. The amount of refunds made per Government Code Section 66001(e).
Once the information is made available to the public, but not less than 15 days from the date it is made available, the City Council must review the information at its next regularly scheduled meeting. The 2022-23 Impact Fee Report provides information on the following infrastructure service types (funds):
• Fund 100 - Transportation Facilities • Fund 105 - Wastewater Facilities • Fund 102 - Law Enforcement Facilities • Fund 109 - Park & Recreation Facilities • Fund 103 - Fire Facilities • Fund 110 - General Govt Facilities • Fund 104 - Storm Drainage Facilities • Fund 111 - Water Facilities The attached report includes a summary for all funds and individual pages that provide detail of activity by infrastructure service type.

01 New City Hall Update
December 12, 2023
New City Hall
City of Reedley
Many City facilities were designed and built decades ago and are reaching capacity limits
By 2035, the population of Reedley is projected to be 32,900, a growth of 6,813 residents over the 2021 level of 26,087 Considered capital and facility needs for the City to continue providing service levels out to the year 2035
Strategic Planning focus
New City Hall
City of Reedley
City Hall and Police Headquarters have been in their current location since the year 1960 and 1978, respectively
Last expanded in 1996 – 26 years ago
Police Department and departments in City Hall have dealt with space limitations for at least a decade, leading to evermore creative uses of remaining spaces and less than ideal work environments
A double-wide trailer was added to the parking lot in 2015, now at capacity (temporary structure)
All facilities are at functional max capacity w/no room for additional workspaces
Background
New City Hall
City of Reedley
Former County Courthouse explored
Fresno County retains fractional ownership and first right of refusal Facility was found to require cost prohibitive rehabilitation New Police Facility was considered
Construction of jail, evidence storage, dispatch and other supporting facilities would be cost prohibitive
Significant remodel of Police headquarters would be required to convert to City Hall uses
Vacant parcel set aside for future development
At the time of the parking lot construction, a 14,920 square foot ‘pad’ facing 8 th Avenue was reserved for a future City facility
Development Options
New City Hall
City of Reedley
Development of a new City Hall would allow for Police Dept to expand into City Hall, restore pre-1996 access between the two ‘sides’
Additional space would allow removal of double-wide trailer to increase parking and future development of additional solar and EV chargers for City vehicles
Former City Hall space is estimated to meet PD requirements for the same time horizon of 25-30 years
Renovation of space could be done in phases without debt issuance Development Options
New City Hall
City of Reedley
November 2022: City Council authorizes $100K in American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA) for initial planning and design work associated with a future City Hall facility
January 2023: City Council authorizes a Professional Services Agreement with Integrated Designs by SOMAM, Inc. for Phase One initial design work associated with a future City Hall facility, not to exceed $60K
To Present: Staff have worked over the last 11 months to forecast needs for the next 25-30 years, working out hundreds of details of floor plan
Council & Staff Updates
New City Hall
City of Reedley
Forecast workspace requirements as far into the future as possible, 25-30+ years
Utilize parcel as efficiently as possible, single level not possible to meet future needs
Enhance community access and use, address security needs Balance frugality with creating facility representative of Reedley Develop additional on street parking on 8th
Council Chamber capacity, a true community space
Design continuity with KCUSD buildings, aesthetics and cost Goal of Preliminary Design

KCUSD Student Support Center is approx. $804/square foot including estimated soft costs – single story construction New City Hall would have two-story construction, elevator and stairs
Accounting for projected inflation, a ballpark estimate for construction and soft costs would be $840 to $960/square foot Total cost between $13.8M to 15.8M
General Obligation debt would be required, 30 year payback Estimated annual debt service = $910,000 to $1,040,000 Project Cost
New City Hall
City of Reedley
Clarity: Better understanding of workspace requirements for the next generation
Considerations for enhancing community access
Newly constructed facility would:
meet all needs day one
be energy efficient for ongoing impact to the budget
have no deferred maintenance
require debt issuance due to all costs being incurred at once Debt has its place, Reedley Capital Financing & Debt Policy Project would use most of City’s General Obligation Debt capacity Results
New City Hall
City of Reedley
Impact of no action
City Hall and Police Headquarters are at max capacity Development of new office space will take years
Limited existing City Facilities available
Corp Yard already utilizes portables
WWTP offices are fully utilized
Community Center is at capacity
Remaining ARPA funds must be spent by December 31, 2026 Alternatives
New City Hall
City of Reedley
Potential Purchase of existing commercial building(s) Lower initial cost but require extensive renovation
Renovations could be phased over several years
May not meet needs long-term
Available properties may not be large enough to accommodate all City Hall functions, including a larger Council Chamber
Staff to continue research and return to Council with ideas and timelines
Next Steps
