23 In Memory of Ten Baha'i Women Who Were Executed in Shiraz The Women Who Stood for Freedom of Thought with Their Lives

By: Soheila Bana*

The day June 18th is the anniversary of the execution of ten Baha'i women in 1983 at Adel Abad Prison in Shiraz, Iran, whose alleged "crime" was believing in the Baha'i Faith.

Years after this group execution, we honor their memory as heroines who sacrificed their lives for freedom of thought in Iran.

These women, ranging in age from 17-year-old Mona to 57-year-old Ezzat, are a part of our history. They stood firm in defense of their right to freedom of thought, paying the ultimate price with their lives.

Their story forms a chapter in the history of Iran—a chapter that we earnestly hope will never be repeated.

A Few Pages of This Chapter

In Adel Abad Prison in Shiraz, Saturday, June 18, 1983, was like any other Saturday in the spring of 1983; it was the day for visiting female prisoners. The Baha'i families went for their visits, unaware that it would be their last. "No one believed they would be executed! Everyone thought they would be imprisoned for a few months and then released."

The "crime" of these girls and women was their involvement in teaching ethics and the Baha'i religious education to children from Baha'i families. They were also falsely accused of espionage, but all it would have taken for all their "crimes" to be forgiven was to renounce their faith and convert to Islam. On the visitation card given to their families by the prison, it was written "Charge: Baha'ism" or "Charge: B." Some Baha'is, under pressure and by force, were made to say they had converted to Islam, and suddenly all their charges and "crimes" disappeared.
24 The charge written on the visiting card clearly indicated that these people are prisoners of conscience.

The arrest of the Baha'is in Shiraz in 1981 took place over two raids on a number of Baha'i homes. Some of these women were arrested around October 23, 1982, and others on November 29, 1982. The account of the arrests, as detailed in a letter written by the sister of one of those arrested during those days, goes as follows:

"Monday, Azar 8th, 1361, corresponding to November 29, 1982. About a year has passed since (her) arrest followed by spending several days in IRGC Prison in Shiraz while there was still much talk about it on her birthday. It was around 8 PM when, heeding Dad's persistent warnings that 'I have a bad feeling, surely a thief has come!' we went home. It was about 8:30 PM when the doorbell rang. Three armed men, all members of the IRGC, entered the house. They searched everywhere, collected some books, religious pictures, and a family album they found, and put them into two sacks, took inventory of them, and had us all sign it. Then, from a list with many names written on it, they called out (her) name [...] The next morning, it was found out that about 45 people had been arrested that night, in roughly the same manner by the IRGC, and transferred to the same IRGC prison located in the southeast corner of Shiraz. Initially, everyone thought that only their family members were targeted, but upon inquiring, they realized that many others had been arrested around the same time."

25 After their arrest, they spent some time in the IRGC detention center for interrogation before being transferred to prison. The interrogations in the IRGC detention center were sometimes very lengthy. Yet, the treatment they received in prison was worse. Since Baha'is were considered "unclean," they were kept in a cell separate from other prisoners. When they were blindfolded and taken for interrogation, they were given a rolled-up newspaper to hold, and a guard held the other end, leading them so as not to come into contact and become "unclean" by touching these individuals. The Baha'i prisoners even had their own designated plates. In Ward One of Adel Abad Prison in Shiraz, the women were three to a cell and were allowed to visit each other's cells.

However, sanitation was a serious issue; regular access to a bathroom was not available, and there was no proper medical care. One of the girls suffered from severe menstrual pains so intense that she normally needed morphine injections for relief. But during her seven months in prison, she had no choice but to endure the pain without medication.

Mona Mahmoudnejad, 17 years old

Mona and her father Yadullah Mahmoudnejad, were executed three months apart.

26 Mona was a high school student. She was arrested alongside her father on October 23, 1981, at the age of 16. It is said that due to her young age, Mona was the last person to be hanged on that day as giving her one last chance to recant her faith, but she did not. Mona is one of the youngest victims of ideological repression in the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Mona's mother was also imprisoned for several months with her and was then released. Mona's father, Yadollah Mahmoudnejad, was executed in Shiraz in March 1982, three months before his daughter.

Akhtar Sabit, 21 years old

Roya Eshraghi, 22 years old
27 Roya was a lively girl, a lover of nature and animals, and a veterinary student at the University of Shiraz, who had been expelled from the university after the revolution due to her Baha'i faith.

Roya's parents were also active in serving the local Baha'i community and were arrested along with her. Roya's mother was a homemaker, and her father had been dismissed from his job after the revolution for the "crime" of being a Baha'i.

Roya was executed at the same time as her mother, Ezzat Janami.

Simin Saberi, 24 years old
28 Shahin (Shirin) Dalvand, 25 years old

Shahin – affectionately called Shirin – always had a smile on her face. Even though her family had emigrated to England, she stayed in Iran to complete her education. Shirin had studied sociology and had completed her thesis on combating addiction, but she never got the chance to work and apply her efforts in the fight against the scourge of addiction.
29 Mahshid Niromand, 28 years old

Mahshid completed her university education in physics at Shiraz University. She served the Baha'i community by participating in local Baha'i committees.

Zarrin Moghimi Abianeh, 29 years old

30 Zarrin had studied English Literature at the University of Tehran. She possessed an exceptional rhetoric skills and had a deep understanding of Islam and the Baha'i Faith, and knew some verses of the Quran and Baha'i texts by heart. The interrogators who tried to convince her to convert to Islam found it a challenging task. They remarked that instead of an English language certificate, she should have been awarded a certificate in rhetoric.

Zarrin was very sensitive and wrote poetry. Once, after visiting a young man charged with being a Baha'i who had just been released from Adel Abad Prison, she was so moved that she wrote a piece titled "I Come from Adel Abad," which begins:

"What should I write, and how should I write, to convey where that place is, in what language can I describe what kind of world it is there, and which words or phrases are capable of expressing what my humble earthly eyes have seen? I close my eyes to see if what I witnessed was a dream or reality, a sweet dream or a bitter truth. Tonight, I come from Adel Abad..."

Zarrin was arrested along with her parents. Her mother spent three months in prison, and her father was imprisoned for two years and was released eight months after the execution of his daughter.

Tahereh Arjomandi (Siavoshi), 32 years old

Tahereh was a nurse and provided medical care to other prisoners while in prison. She was arrested and imprisoned alongside her husband, Jamshid Siavoshi. It is said that 31 during a prison visit, Tahereh found her husband had been tortured and feared he would not survive. Her husband did not die from the torture and lived on, but was executed two days before Tahereh, on Thursday, June 16, 1983.

Nusrat Ghofrani (Yaldai), 56 years old

Nosrat and her son, Bahram Yaldai, at his last birthday party. Mother and son were arrested at the same time and executed two days apart.

Nasrat was a member of the Baha'i Assembly in Shiraz. It is reported that she endured torture and suffered many lashings. Nasrat was arrested together with her husband and son. Her son, Bahram Yaldaei, was hanged at the age of 28 in Adel Abad Prison in Shiraz two days before his mother's execution.

Ezzat Janami (Eshraghi), 57 years old
32 Ezzat Janai, standing between her husband, Enayatullah Eshraghi, and their daughter, Roya Eshraghi. Ezzat and Roya were hanged together two days after the execution of the father of the family.

Ezzat Janami was arrested along with her husband, Enayatollah Eshraqi, and their daughter Roya. The Eshraqi family had previously been arrested by the IRGC but chose not to leave the country, nor even the city of Shiraz.

Ezzat's husband, Enayatollah Eshraqi, was hanged two days before her at the age of 63. Ezzat was hanged alongside her young daughter, Roya.

Visiting day for women in Adel Abad Prison was on Saturdays. After the visiting hour, these ten women were taken to be hanged on Saturday, June 18.

The visiting day for men was on Thursdays. Two days prior, on Thursday, June 16, six Baha'i men were hanged after the visiting hours.

Some of these men were close relatives of the women who were executed on Saturday.

33 Bahram Yaldai, 28 years old (son of Nusrat Ghofrani).

Koresh Haqbin, 34 years old.

Jamshid Siavoshi, 39 years old (husband of Tahereh Arjomandi).

Bahram Afghan, 50 years old.

Inayatullah Eshraqi, 63 years old (husband of Ezzat Janami and father of Roya Eshraghi).

Abdul Hossein Azadi, 66 years old.

The hanging of ten women, two days after the hanging of six men, was an unbelievable tragedy for the Baha'i community: "It was a disaster, a disaster! No one thought they would be executed! Everyone thought, as with previous arrests, they would be interrogated and then released. Who could have imagined that a mother and son would be executed together? A husband and wife hanged at the same time? Three members of one family, a father, mother, and daughter, executed together?"

To this day, it remains difficult to speak about the atrocities inflicted upon the Baha'is. Despite the many hardships they face in Iran, from being deprived of civil rights, such as job termination and denial of education, to the fundamental right to life, many Baha'is still refuse to leave their homeland. However, their fears prevent the speaking out and acknowledgment of many truths.

Even those who have lost loved ones prefer to speak without naming names, unwilling to cause trouble for anyone.

The sister of one of the executed girls says, "I really don't know how to express the impact of this event on my personal life. Of course, anyone who loses a loved one becomes very depressed because there will no longer be an opportunity to meet them! My children never got the chance to meet their aunt."

She continues, "But what's really painful is that there are people who are willing to kill a fellow Iranian, simply because her beliefs differ from those of the government! It feels terrible to know these were such peaceful people who had nothing but love for others, held no grudges, did no harm to anyone, and yet they were treated this way. How could anyone not like them? It's saddening that the world has reached this point where people can't recognize that this is not right! This is not justice!"

"At the same time, we were somewhat glad that they stood firm and resisted, staying true to their beliefs. My sister was passionate about life! But if she had said she was not a Baha'i and became free, perhaps I would have been sorry and asked her, 'You who believe in peace and humanity and principles, how could you turn your back on everything?'"

34 Another sister speaks of her sister's livelihood: "She was always smiling and happy, wanting to make everyone else happy. Lately, she had been thinking about marriage, considering her suitors, and she almost knew which one she would choose."

She continues, “The execution of my sister was very painful for me. She was not just my sister but also my best friend. We had a unique bond, such that she could understand everything from the tone of my voice. During the most challenging period of my life, when my child had cancer, she was a tremendous support! Even now, when I see someone who reminds me of her, I can't help but follow them. Having dealt with and still dealing with a loved one's (terminal) illness, I know some things may be accepted. But accepting the sudden death of a loved one is incredibly hard!

The brother of one of the women says, "They were tortured and pressured to confess to being spies for Israel, simply because they had traveled to Baha'i holy places in Israel before the revolution. But when our Prophet was exiled there, that place wasn't even called Israel yet; it was part of the Ottoman Empire. It's like saying Iranians who go on a pilgrimage to Mecca are spies for Saudi Arabia!"

A relative of the women states, "They were subjected to psychological torture. (She) was terribly frightened. They had said they would tear her heart out of her chest."

The news of the execution of ten Baha'i women spread among the Baha'is of the city on Sunday morning. Below is an account of a mother who saw her daughter's body shortly after her execution:

"I was very worried. The day before, my daughter wasn't her usual self, but she didn't say anything. She always stood and waved to me at the end of our visits. This time she disappeared.

The next day, I heard that ten women had been executed. I didn't know if it was true or not, I didn't know who had been executed. I ran out of the house out of frustration. Just as I stepped outside, I saw a friend with her young son approaching me. I asked, 'Is it true?' The lady pulled out a paper and read the names to me. There were nine names. I realized, and asked, 'Is my daughter among them?' She said, 'Yes.' I wanted to see her body. A few other mothers and I went towards the prison. We begged the guards to let us see the bodies. Finally, they agreed.

They took us to a dirty room with a fan spinning above. Ten bodies were lying on the floor.

Mona's mother recognized her. I recognized my daughter by the scarf she had on her head. Her face was covered with a blindfold. I kissed her. I kissed her for her sister, her brothers, and her father, too. I left the blindfold on her face and left. They didn't let us bury the bodies. We begged an interrogator to let us bury them. They said no! They would all be buried in one place."

No wills were left from the executed. One of the girls had written a short note on a piece of paper and had it sent to her family, "No one has the right to wear black or cry for me, except my mother, who I know can't bear it."
35 However, the suitcases containing the women's belongings and clothes were delivered to their families after the execution.

"To this day, that suitcase is the most precious thing I have!", says a brother.

received from the California Interagency Council on
Homelessness (Account String 15061219- 400201-
26G25). Therefore, this contract will not have an impact on the City’s General Fund.

PREVIOUS COUNCIL
ACTION:

November 15, 2022, December 19, 2023

STATEMENT OF THE
ISSUE:

The City of Richmond was awarded an Encampment
Resolution Funding Round 2 (ERF-R-2) award of
approximately $8.6 million to connect at least 115
unhoused city residents with urgently needed services
and pathways to housing to resolve encampments along
Interstates 80 and 580, and other citywide encampments.

Way2Love, Inc.’s contract was amended on December
19, 2023, to provide project management, housing
navigation, case management, and other support services for the ERF-R-2 award. Due to the lack of shelter beds

RECOMMENDED ACTION: APPROVE a contract amendment No. 3 with Way2Love, Inc., to increase the contract amount by
$709,422, for a total contract amount not to exceed
$3,728,965.26, to add sheltering resources, for the
City’s Encampment Resolution Funding Round 2
(ERF-R-2) project, for a term through June 30, 2025,
to be funded by the City’s ERF-R-2 award –
Community Development Department (Lina
Velasco/Jesus Morales 510-620-6649).

DISCUSSION:

In February 2023, the Community Development Department submitted an Encampment Resolution Funding (ERF) Round 2 application seeking resources from the State of California to fund a second local demonstration project to connect at least 115 unhoused city residents living in encampments, along Interstates 80 and 580 and throughout the City, including the Richmond Greenway, with urgently needed services and pathways to housing.

Richmond is one of six cities that received a second ERF award (ERF-R-2). The use of the City’s first ERF award was focused at resolving the Castro Vehicle Encampment and restoring the site to its original use as a Bay Trail segment.

On December 19, 2023, the City Council approved a second amendment to the Way2Love, Inc. contract to provide project management services, as well as case management, housing navigation, and counseling services for the City’s ERF-R-2 project. Staff is seeking approval of a third amendment to allow Way 2Love’s subcontractor, The Uncuffed Project, to finalize a group rate agreement to secure approximately 25-30 rooms at the Extended-Stay American Hotel located in the Hilltop area, for approximately six months to place unhoused residents while permanent housing is being secured. Unhoused residents will be offered services and temporarily placed at the hotel while a permanent housing placement is made by the housing navigation staff. As rooms are vacated, new clients will be brought into the room. The third amendment will increase the contract amount by $709,422, for a new total amount not to exceed $3,728,965.26, to rent rooms at the Extended-Stay Motel. Securing these rooms will allow the City to have a central location to facilitate the provision of services. Way2Love, Inc. will provide a team of experienced professionals, including housing locators, housing navigators, employment specialists, on-call clinicians, case managers, and program directors.

The contract budget and scope of work includes additional staff to provide supervision overnight and on weekends and will also provide one additional meal per day. The motel will provide residents with brea kfast.

This amendment includes funding to prepay for these motel rooms for six months.

Staff and Way2Love will re-examine the need to provide these motel rooms beyond 38

the initial six-month period.

Summary of Richmond’s ERF Round 2 Project

Richmond’s plan is designed to help an especially vulnerable and transient population— people living in tents, lean-tos, and on the ground along the city’s major transit corridors, including Interstates 80 and 580. Staff from Richmond’s Housing Division worked with Caltrans to identify eight critical locations beneath overpasses and in the land patches formed by curving freeway entrances and exits where people continuously return. The City will focus its efforts to support people now living in these dangerous locations to stabilize their lives and move into safe housing. The target encampments are along Central Avenue, Marina Bay Pkwy., Cutting Blvd., Macdonald Ave., San Pablo Dam Rd., and Castro Street, where people living in vehicles are already receiving support services through a previous grant.

The project is designed to achieve real change for individuals experiencing homelessness in Richmond, not to just “clear sites.” It was selected for funding by the California Interagency Council on Homelessness (Cal ICH) because of its commitment to provide people in encampments with holistic, compassionate case management to address long-term health and housing needs. The Rapid Rehousing Team with expertise in street outreach, clinical care, housing navigation, social services, and employment will go to the sites, meet the people living in them, learn about their needs, and work to connect the residents to life-changing resources. Unhoused clients from targeted encampments will be referred to the navigation center where they will have safe and healthy temporary housing while receiving a variety of services to help them with housing, income and employment development, and mental and physical health needs. Encampment residents will develop plans to move from the streets onto paths to stable housing with support.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Given the success of the Castro project and lessons learned, the need of a centralized hotel to facilitate temporary housing and the provision of services to unhoused clients under the ERF-2-R grant is critical. City staff recommends approving contract amendment no. 3 in the amount of $709,422, for a term through June 30, 2025, for a total contract amount not to exceed $3,728,965.26, to be funded using the ERF-2-R grant. This will allow Way2Love, Inc. to extend their work to include temporary housing to effectively manage and provide the needed services comprising housing navigation, health services, case management, and employment support services for clients. This will also alleviate City staff from having to directly solicit and manage multiple contracts for temporary housing.

Type 2 – Page 1 of 3

Revised: September 2011
In all instances where CONTRACTOR or its representatives will provide professional services (architects, engineers, construction management, counselors, medical professionals, hospitals, clinics, attorneys, consultants, accountants, etc.) to the City of Richmond (City), the City requires the following MINIMUM insurance requirements and limits.

CONTRACTOR shall procure and maintain for the duration of the contract, agreement, or other order for work, services or supplies, insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the work hereunder and the results of that work by the CONTRACTOR, its agents, representatives, employees or subcontractors. Maintenance of proper insurance coverage is a material element of the contract. Failure to maintain or renew coverage or to provide evidence of renewal may be treated by the City as a material breach of contract.

CONTRACTOR agrees that in the event of loss due to any of the perils for which it has agreed to provide Commercial General Liability insurance, CONTRACTOR shall look solely to its insurance for recovery.

CONTRACTOR hereby grants to CITY, on behalf of any insurer providing Commercial General Liability insurance to either CONTRACTOR or CITY with respect to the services of CONSULTANT herein, a waiver of any right to subrogation which any such insurer of said CONTRACTOR may acquire against the CITY by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance.

Original, signed certificates and original, separate policy endorsements, naming the City as an additional insured for general liability coverage, as well as a waiver of subrogation for Workers’ Compensation insurance, shall be received and approved by the City before any work may begin. However, failure to do so shall not operate as a waiver of these insurance requirements.

City reserves the right to modify or require additional coverages for specific risk exposures depending on scope of CONTRACTORS work.

Minimum coverage is detailed below. The policy limits of coverage shall be made available to the full limits of the policy. The minimum limits stated herein shall not serve to reduce the policy limits of coverage of CONTRACTOR.

Minimum Scope of Insurance – the following forms shall be provided and coverage shall be at least as broad as the following:

1. Insurance Services Office Commercial General Liability coverage (ISO Occurrence Form CG 0001), and including coverage for bodily and personal injury, property damage, and products and completed operations (if applicable).

2. Insurance Services Office Automobile Liability coverage (ISO Form CA 0001, Code 1, Any Auto).

General Liability
(primary and excess limits
combined)
$2,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage.

Revised: September 2011
Claims-Made Policies
If any insurance policy is written on a claims-made form: 1) the retroactive date must be shown, and must be before the date of the contract or the beginning of contract work. 2) Insurance must be maintained and evidence of insurance must be provided for at least five (5) years after completion of the contract of work. 3) If coverage is canceled or non-renewed, and not replaced with another claims-made policy form with a retroactive date prior to the contract effective date, the Contractor must purchase an extended period coverage for a minimum of five (5) years after completion of contract work.

Subcontractors

CONTRACTOR
shall include all subcontractors as insured under its policies or shall furnish to the City for review and approval, separate certificates and endorsements for each subcontractor. All coverage for subcontractors shall be subject to all of the requirements stated herein.

CONTRACTOR agrees to defend and indemnify the City of Richmond for any damage resulting to it from failure of either CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor to take out or maintain the required insurance policies.

The fact that
insurance is obtained by CONTRACTOR, and/or CONTRACTOR’s subcontractors, will not be deemed to release or diminish the liability of CONTRACTOR, including, without limitation, liability under the indemnity provisions of this contract. Damages recoverable by CITY from CONTRACTOR or any third party will not be limited by the amount of the required insurance coverage.

Verification of Coverage
All original certificates and endorsements shall be received and approved by the City before work may begin .

The City of Richmond reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies including endorsements affecting the coverage at any time.

Original insurance certificates and required policy endorsements shall be mailed or delivered to the Designated Project Manager for the City of Richmond.

Insurance certificates and endorsements may be faxed to the Designated Project Manger. However, CONTRACTOR must mail the original certificates and endorsements to Designated Project Manager once faxed.

Continuous Coverage
CONTRACTOR shall maintain the required insurance for the life of the contract. Should the CONTRACTOR cease to have insurance as required during this time, all work by the CONTRACTOR pursuant to this agreement shall cease until insurance acceptable to the City is provided. In the event that CONTRACTOR fails to comply with the City’s insurance requirements, the City may take such action as it deems necessary to protect the City’s interests. Such action may include but is not limited to termination of the contract, withholding of payments, or other actions as the City deems appropriate.

If services or the scope of work extend beyond the expiration dates of the required insurance policies initially approved by the City, CONTRACTOR must provide updated certificates and endorsements indicating that the required coverage, terms and conditions are still in place. Renewal certificates and updated endorsements shall be mailed to the Designated Project Manager.

Cancellation
CONTRACTOR shall ensure that coverage shall not be cancelled, reduced or otherwise materially changed except after thirty (30) days’ prior written notice has been given to the City.

Reporting Requirements

Any failure to comply with reporting or other provisions of the policies including breaches of warranties shall not affect coverage provided to the City, its officers, officials, employees or volunteers.

Consistent with Public Policy
The insuring provisions, insofar as they may be judged to be against public policy shall be void and unenforceable only to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining terms and provisions herein may be consistent with public policy and thus enforceable.

PRIMARY AND NON-CONTRIBUTORY

ENDORSEMENT FOR PUBLIC ENTITIES
This endorsement modifies insurance provided under the following:

COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY COVERAGE PART

SCHEDULE
Name of Person or Organization:

A.

C. With respect to the insurance provided to the additional insured(s), Condition 4. Other Insurance of SECTION IV – COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY CONDITIONS is replaced by the following:

Section II – WHO IS AN INSURED is amended to include:

4. Any public entity as an additional insured, and the officers, officials, employees, agents and/or volunteers of that public entity, as applicable, who may be named in the Schedule above, when you have agreed in a written contract or written agreement presently in effect or becoming effective during the term of this policy, that such public entity and/or its officers, officials, employees, agents and/or volunteers be added as an additional insured(s) on your policy, but only with respect to liability for “bodily injury”, “property damage” or “personal and advertising injury” caused, in whole or in part, by:
a. Your negligent acts or omissions; or
b. The negligent acts or omissions of those acting on your behalf; in the performance of your ongoing operations.

No such public entity or individual is an additional insured for liability arising out of the sole negligence by that public entity or its designated individuals. The additional insured status will not be afforded with respect to liability arising out of or related to your activities as a real estate manager for that person or organization.

B. Section III – LIMITS OF INSURANCE is amended to include:

8. The limits of insurance applicable to the public entity and applicable individuals identified as an additional insured(s) pursuant to Provision A.4. above, are those specified in the written contract between you and that public entity, or the limits available under this policy, whichever are less. These limits are part of and not in addition to the limits of insurance under this policy.

4. Other Insurance
a. Primary Insurance
This insurance is primary if you have agreed in a written contract or written agreement:
(1) That this insurance be primary. If other insuran ce is also primary, we will share with all that other insurance as described in c. below; or

Page 1 of 2 ends

57 POLICY NUMBER: 2023-74944
Paragraphs (1) and (2) do not apply to other insurance to which the additional insured(s) has been added as an additional insured or to other insurance described in paragraph b. below. b. Excess Insurance
This insurance is excess over:

1. Any of the other insurance, whether primary, exce ss, contingent or on any other basis:
(a) That is Fire, Extended Coverage, Builder’s Risk, Installation Risk or similar coverage for "your work";
(b) That is fire, lightning, or explosion insurance for premises rented to you or temporarily occupied by you with permission of the owner;
(c) That is insurance purchased by you to cover your liability as a tenant for "property damage" to premises temporarily occupied by you with permission of the owner; or (d)
If the loss arises out of the maintenance or use of aircraft, "autos" or watercraft to the extent not subject to Exclusion g. of SECTION I – COVERAGE A – BODILY INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE .
(e)
(1) When this insurance is excess, we will have no duty under Coverages A or B to defend the additional insured(s) against any "suit" if any other insurer has a duty to defend the additional insured(s) against that "suit". If no other insurer defends, we will undertake to do so, but we will be entitled to the additional insured(s)’ rights against all those other insurers. (2) When this insurance is excess over other insurance, we will pay only our share of the amount of the loss, if any, that exceeds the sum of:
(3) We will share the remaining loss, if any, with a ny other insurance that is not described in this Excess Insurance provision and was not bought specifically to apply in excess of the Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations of this Coverage Part. (a) The total amount that all such other insurance w ould pay for the loss in the absence of this insurance; and
(b) The total of all deductible and self-insured amo unts under all that other insurance. c. Methods of Sharing
If all of the other insurance available to the additional insured(s) permits contribution by equal shares, we will follow this method also. Under this approach each insurer contributes equal amounts until it has paid its applicable limit of insurance or none of the loss remains, whichever comes first.

If any other the other insurance available to the additional insured(s) does not permit contribution by equal shares, we will contribute by limits. Under this method, each insurer’s share is based on the ratio of its applicable limit of insurance to the total applicable limits of insurance of all insurers.

Any other insurance available to an additional insured(s) under this Endorsement covering liability for damages which are subject to this endorsement and for which the additional insured(s) has been added as an additional insured by that other insurance. (2) The coverage afforded by this insurance is prima ry and non-contributory with the additional insured(s)’ own insurance.

13. Termination in the Event of Default. Should Contractor fail to perform any of its obligations hereunder, within the time and in the manner provided or otherwise violate any of the terms of this Contract, City may immediately terminate this Contract by giving written notice of such termination, stating the reasons for such termination. Contractor shall be compensated as provided in Section 12 of these General Conditions; provided, however, there shall be deducted from such amount the amount of damage, including attorney's fees, expert witness fees and costs, if any, sustained by City by virtue of Contractor's breach of this Contract. Additionally, in the event of such termination, the City may proceed with the work in any reasonable manner it chooses.

14. Conflict of Interest
. Contractor acknowledges, represents and warrants
that Contractor shall avoid all conflicts of interest (as defined under any federal, state or local statute, rule or regulation, or at common law) with respect to this Contract. Contractor further acknowledges, represents and warrants that no City official or employee has any economic interest, as defined in Title 2, California Code of Regulations §§ 18703.1 through 18703.5, with Contractor that would invalidate this Contract. Contractor acknowledges that in the event that Contractor shall be found by any judicial or administrative body to have any conflict of interest (as defined above) with respect to this Contract, all consideration received under this Contract shall be forfeited and returned to City forthwith. This provision shall survive the termination of this Contract for one (1) year.

15. Indemnification
.

(a) If this Contract is a contract for design professional services subject to California Civil Code Section 2782.8(a) and Contractor is a design professional, as defined in California Civil Code Section 2782.8(b)(2), Contractor shall hold harmless, defend and indemnify the City, its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, and expenses including attorneys’ fees arising out of, or pertaining to, or relating to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Contractor, except where caused by the active negligence, sole negligence, or willful misconduct of the City. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall immediately defend and indemnify the City and its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers from and against any and all liabilities, regardless of nature or type, that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Contractor, or its employees, agents, or subcontractors.

Liabilities subject to the duties to defend and indemnify include, without limitation, any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, and judgments; associated investigation and administrative expenses; defense costs, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees; court costs; and costs of alternative dispute resolution. Contractor’s obligation to 





 



87 General Conditions/EJ/TE 01-19-11 7 of 13

indemnify applies unless it is finally adjudicated that the liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of an indemnified party.
(b) If this Contract is not a contract for design professional services subject to California Civil Code Section 2782.8(a) or Contractor is not a design professional as defined in California Civil Code Section 2782.8(b)(2), Contractor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City, its officers, agents, employees and volunteers from any and all claims, suits, or actions of every name, kind and description, brought forth on account of injuries to or death of any person or damage to property arising from or connected with the willful misconduct, negligent acts, errors or omissions, ultra-hazardous activities, activities giving rise to strict liability, or defects in design by Contractor or any person directly or indirectly employed by, or acting as, the agent for Contractor in the performance of this Contract, including the concurrent or successive passive negligence of the City, its officers, agents, employees or volunteers.
(c) It is understood that the duty of Contractor to indemnify and hold harmless includes the duty to defend as set forth in Section 2778 of the California Civil Code. Contractor shall be obligated to defend, in all legal, equitable, administrative, or special proceedings, with counsel approved by the City, the City and its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers, immediately upon tender to Contractor of the claim in any form or at any stage of an action or proceeding, whether or not liability is established. An allegation or determination that persons other than Contractor are responsible for the claim does not relieve Contractor from its separate and distinct obligation to defend under this Section 15. The obligation to defend extends through final judgment, including exhaustion of any appeals. The defense obligation includes an obligation to provide independent counsel if Contractor asserts that liability is caused in whole, or in part, by the negligence or willful misconduct of an indemnified party. (d) The review, acceptance or approval of the Contractor’s work or work product by any indemnified party shall not affect, relieve or reduce the Contractor’s indemnification or defense obligations. This Section 15 survives completion of the services or the termination of this Contract.

The provisions of this Section 15 are not limited by, and do not affect, the provisions of this Contract relating to insurance.
(e) Acceptance of insurance certificates and endorsements required under this Contract does not relieve Contractor from liability under this Section

15. This Section 15 shall apply whether or not such insurance policies are determined to be applicable to any such damages or claims for damages.

16. Safety
. Contractor acknowledges that the City is committed to the highest standards of workplace safety.

Contractor acknowledges that under § 2.60.070 of the Municipal Code ("Living Wage Ordinance"), Contractor shall promptly provide to City documents and information verifying its compliance with the Living Wage Ordinance. Also as prescribed in § 2.60.070, Contractor shall notify each of its affected employees with regards to the wages that are required to be paid pursuant to the Living Wage Ordinance.

Contractor acknowledges that the City’s Drug Free Workplace Policy, Violence in the Workplace Policy and the Policy Against Workplace Harassment, are available on the City’s website at
http://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/workplacepolicies
. Contractor agrees to
abide by the terms and conditions of said policies.

89 General Conditions/EJ/TE 01-19-11 9 of 13

under this Contract and shall not assign this Contract, nor any portion hereof or monies due or to become due, without the prior written consent of the City Council or its designee.

Contractor acknowledges that the services which Contractor shall provide under this Contract are unique, personal services which, except as otherwise provided herein, Contractor shall not assign or sublet to any other party without the prior written approval of City, which approval may be withheld in City's sole and absolute discretion. In the event that City, in writing, approves any assignment or subletting of this Contract or the retention of subcontractors by Contractor, Contractor shall provide to City upon request copies of each and every subcontract contract prior to the execution thereof by Contractor and subcontractor. Any assignment by Contractor of any or all of its rights under this Contract without first obtaining City's prior written consent shall be a default under this Contract.

The sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of any of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Contractor (if applicable), or of the interest of any general partner or joint venturer or syndicate member if Contractor is a partnership or joint-venture or syndicate, which shall result in a change of control of Contractor, shall be deemed an assignment.

Type 5 - Page 1 of 3
Revised: September 2011
In all instances where CONTRACTOR or its representatives will be conducting business and/or providing services to the City of Richmond (City), or will be awarded City of Richmond (City) funds to provide programs or services, the City requires the following MINIMUM insurance requirements and limits.

CONTRACTOR shall procure and maintain for the duration of the contract, agreement, or other order for work, services or supplies, insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the work hereunder and the results of that work by the CONTRACTOR, its agents, representatives, or subcontractors. Maintenance of proper insurance coverage is a material element of the contract. Failure to maintain or renew coverage or to provide evidence of renewal may be treated by the City as a material breach of contract.

CONTRACTOR agrees that in the event of loss due to any of the perils for which it has agreed to provide Commercial General Liability insurance, CONTRACTOR shall look solely to its insurance for recovery.

CONTRACTOR hereby grants to CITY, on behalf of any insurer providing Commercial General Liability insurance to either CONTRACTOR or CITY with respect to the services of CONSULTANT herein, a waiver of any right to subrogation which any such insurer of said CONTRACTOR may acquire against the CITY by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance.

Original, signed certificates and original, separate policy endorsements, naming the City as an additional insured for general liability, as well as a waiver of subrogation for Workers’ Compensation insurance, shall be received and approved by the City before any work may begin. However, failure to do so shall not operate as a waiver of these insurance requirements.

City reserves the right to modify or require additional coverages for specific risk exposures depending on scope of CONTRACTORS work.

Minimum coverage is detailed below. The policy limits of coverage shall be made available to the full limits of the policy. The minimum limits stated herein shall not serve to reduce the policy limits of coverage of CONTRACTOR.

Minimum Scope of Insurance – the following forms shall be provided and coverage shall be at least as broad as the following:

1. Insurance Services Office Commercial General Liability coverage (ISO Occurrence Form CG 0001)

2. Insurance Services Office Automobile Liability coverage (ISO Form CA 0001, Code 1, Any Auto)

3. Original and Separate Additional Insured Endorsements for General Liability (ISO Form CG 20 10 11/85 or its equivalent) with primary and non-contributory language.

4. Workers’ Compensation insurance as required by the State of California including Employer’s Liability (for CONTRACTOR’s with employees);

5. Original and Separate Waiver of Subrogation for Workers’ Compensation Insurance.

Required Coverage Minimum Limits
Workers’ Compensation and
Employers’ Liability
Statutory limits as required by the State of California including $1 million Employers’ Liability per accident, per employee for bodily injury or disease.

If CONTRACTOR is self-insured, provide a certificate of Permission to Self- Insure, signed by the California Department of Industrial Relations and Self- Insurance. If contractor is a sole proprietor (has no employees) than contractor must sign “Contractor Release of Liability” located at:
http://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/index.aspx?nid=61
.

General Liability
(primary and excess limits
combined)
$1,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage. If the policy includes a general aggregate, either the general aggregate shall apply separately to this project, service or location or the minimum required aggregate limit shall be twice the per occurrence limit ($4 million aggregate).

Policy shall also include coverage for liability arising out of the use and operation of any City-owned or City-furnished equipment used or operated by the CONTRACTOR, its personnel, agents or subcontractors.

Policy shall be endorsed to name the City of Richmond as an additional insured per the conditions detailed below.

Automobile Liability (If auto is used.) $1,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury and property damage.

Fidelity Bond/Crime Coverage
(Applies if receiving City
funds.)
In an amount stipulated by City depending upon the scope of Contract. (Usually based upon the amount of money the Contractor is handling that could be embezzled over a period of time.)
Required Policy Conditions

The City of Richmond, its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers are to be named as additional insureds for all liability arising out of the operations by or on behalf of the named insured including bodily injury, deaths and property damage or destruction arising in any respect directly or indirectly in the performance of this contract.

ISO form CG 20 10 (11/85) or its equivalent is required. The endorsement must not
exclude products and completed operations
coverage. If it does, then CG 20 37 (10/01) is also required.

SAMPLE ENDORSEMENT can be found at:

SAMPLE ENDORSEMENT can be found at
http://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/index.aspx?nid=61.

Primary and Noncontributory The contractor’s insurance coverage must be primary coverage as it pertains to the City, its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers. Any insurance or self insurance maintained by the City is wholly separate from the insurance of the contractor and in no way relieves the contractor from its responsibility to provide insurance.

A. M. Best Rating A:VII or Better. If the A.M. Best Rating falls below the required rating, CONTRACTOR must replace coverage immediately and provide notice to City.

Deductibles and Self-Insured
Retentions
Any deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to and approved by the City. At the option of the City either the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retention as respects the City or the contractor shall procure a financial guarantee in an amount equal to the deductible or self-insured retention guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claims administration and defense expenses.

Contractor is responsible for satisfaction of the deductible and/or self-insured retention for each loss.

Umbrella/Excess Liability Policies
If an Umbrella or Excess Liability Policy is used to meet the liability limits, coverage shall be as broad as specified for underlying coverages and cover those insured in the underlying policies.

Revised: September 2011
Subcontractors
CONTRACTOR shall include all subcontractors as insured under its policies or shall furnish to the City for review and approval, separate certificates and endorsements for each subcontractor. All coverage for subcontractors shall be subject to all of the requirements stated herein.

CONTRACTOR agrees to defend and indemnify the City of Richmond for any damage resulting to it from failure of either CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor to take out or maintain the required insurance policies. The fact that insurance is obtained by CONTRACTOR, and/or CONTRACTOR’s subcontractors, will not be deemed to release or diminish the liability of CONTRACTOR, including, without limitation, liability under the indemnity provisions of this contract. Damages recoverable by CITY from CONTRACTOR or any third party will not be limited by the amount of the required insurance coverage.

Verification of Coverage
All original certificates and endorsements shall be received and approved by the City before work may begin.

The City of Richmond reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies including endorsements affecting the coverage at any time.

Original insurance certificates and required policy endorsements shall be mailed or delivered to the Designated Project Manager for the City of Richmond.

Insurance certificates and endorsements may be faxed to the Designated Project Manager. However, Contractor must mail the original certificates and endorsements to Designated Project Manager once faxed.

Continuous Coverage
CONTRACTOR shall maintain the required insurance for the life of the contract. Should the CONTRACTOR cease to have insurance as required during this time, all work by the CONTRACTOR pursuant to this agreement shall cease until insurance acceptable to the City is provided. In the event that CONTRACTOR fails to comply with the City’s insurance requirements, the City may take such action as it deems necessary to protect the City’s interests. Such action may include but is not limited to termination of the contract, withholding of payments, or other actions as the City deems appropriate.

If services or the scope of work extend beyond the expiration dates of the required insurance policies initially approved by the City, CONTRACTOR must provide updated certificates and endorsements indicating that the required coverage, terms and conditions are still in place. Renewal certificates and updated endorsements shall be mailed to the Designated Project Manager.

Cancellation
CONTRACTOR shall ensure that coverage shall not be cancelled, reduced or otherwise materially changed except after thirty (30) days’ prior written notice has been given to the City.

Reporting Requirements
Any failure to comply with reporting or other provisions of the policies including breaches of warranties shall not affect coverage provided to the City, its officers, officials, employees or volunteers.

Consistent with Public Policy
The insuring provisions, insofar as they may be judged to be against public policy shall be void and unenforceable only to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining terms and provisions herein may be consistent with public policy and thus enforceable.

___ Exhibit F
___ Section 8
City of Richmond Insurance Requirements – Type 5:

Vendors, Suppliers, Small Grant Recipients & Nonprofit
Organizations
Type 5 - Page 1 of 3
Revised: September 2011
In all instances where CONTRACTOR or its representatives will be conducting business and/or providing services to the City of Richmond (City), or will be awarded City of Richmond (City) funds to provide programs or services, the City requires the following MINIMUM insurance requirements and limits.

CONTRACTOR shall procure and maintain for the duration of the contract, agreement, or other order for work, services or supplies, insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the work hereunder and the results of that work by the CONTRACTOR, its agents, representatives, or subcontractors. Maintenance of proper insurance coverage is a material element of the contract. Failure to maintain or renew coverage or to provide evidence of renewal may be treated by the City as a material breach of contract.

CONTRACTOR agrees that in the event of loss due to any of the perils for which it has agreed to provide Commercial General Liability insurance, CONTRACTOR shall look solely to its insurance for recovery.

CONTRACTOR hereby grants to CITY, on behalf of any insurer providing Commercial General Liability insurance to either CONTRACTOR or CITY with respect to the services of CONSULTANT herein, a waiver of any right to subrogation which any such insurer of said CONTRACTOR may acquire against the CITY by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance.

Original, signed certificates and original, separate policy endorsements, naming the City as an additional insured for general liability, as well as a waiver of subrogation for Workers’ Compensation insurance, shall be received and approved by the City before any work may begin. However, failure to do so shall not operate as a waiver of these insurance requirements.

City reserves the right to modify or require additional coverages for specific risk exposures depending on scope of CONTRACTORS work.

Minimum coverage is detailed below. The policy limits of coverage shall be made available to the full limits of the policy. The minimum limits stated herein shall not serve to reduce the policy limits of coverage of CONTRACTOR.

Minimum Scope of Insurance – the following forms shall be provided and coverage shall be at least as broad as the following:

1. Insurance Services Office Commercial General Liability coverage (ISO Occurrence Form CG 0001)

2. Insurance Services Office Automobile Liability coverage (ISO Form CA 0001, Code 1, Any Auto)

3. Original and Separate Additional Insured Endorsemen ts for General Liability (ISO Form CG 20 10 11/85 or its equivalent) with primary and non-contributory language.

4. Workers’ Compensation insurance as required by the State of California including Employer’s Liability (for CONTRACTOR’s with employees);

5. Original and Separate Waiver of Subrogation for Workers’ Compensation Insurance.

6. Fidelity Bond/Crime Coverage – in an amount stipu lated by City depending upon scope of contract.

Required Coverage Minimum Limits
Workers’ Compensation and
Employers’ Liability
Statutory limits as required by the State of California including $1 million Employers’ Liability per accident, per employee for bodily injury or disease.

If CONTRACTOR is self-insured, provide a certificate of Permission to Self- Insure, signed by the California Department of Industrial Relations and Self- Insurance. If contractor is a sole proprietor (has no employees) than contractor must sign “Contractor Release of Liability” located at:
http://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/index.aspx?nid=61
.

General Liability
(primary and excess limits
combined)
$1,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage. If the policy includes a general aggregate, either the general aggregate shall apply separately to this project, service or location or the minimum required aggregate limit shall be twice the per occurrence limit ($4 million aggregate).

Policy shall also include coverage for liability arising out of the use and operation of any City-owned or City-furnished equipment used or operated by the CONTRACTOR, its personnel, agents or subcontractors.

Policy shall be endorsed to name the City of Richmond as an additional insured per the conditions detailed below.

Revised: September 2011
Automobile Liability (If auto is used.) $1,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury and property damage.

Fidelity Bond/Crime Coverage
(Applies if receiving City
funds.)
In an amount stipulated by City depending upon the scope of Contract. (Usually based upon the amount of money the Contractor is handling that could be embezzled over a period of time.)
Required Policy Conditions
Additional Insured Endorsement Applicable to General Liability Coverage.

The City of Richmond, its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers are to be named as additional insureds for all liability arising out of the operations by or on behalf of the named insured including bodily injury, deaths and property damage or destruction arising in any respect directly or indirectly in the performance of this contract.

ISO form CG 20 10 (11/85) or its equivalent is required. The endorsement must not
exclude products and completed operations
coverage. If it does, then CG 20 37 (10/01) is also required.

SAMPLE ENDORSEMENT can be found at:
http://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/index.aspx?nid=61.

Waiver of Subrogation
Endorsement Form
Contractor’s insurer will provide a Waiver of Subrogation in favor of the City for Workers’ Compensation Insurance providing coverage during the life of this contract.

SAMPLE ENDORSEMENT can be found at
http://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/index.aspx?nid=61.

Primary and Noncontributory The contractor’s insurance coverage must be primary coverage as it pertains to the City, its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers. Any insurance or self insurance maintained by the City is wholly separate from the insurance of the contractor and in no way relieves the contractor from its responsibility to provide insurance.

A. M. Best Rating A:VII or Better. If the A.M. Best Rating falls below the required rating, CONTRACTOR must replace coverage immediately and provide notice to City.

Deductibles and Self-Insured
Retentions
Any deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to and approved by the City. At the option of the City either the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retention as respects the City or the contractor shall procure a financial guarantee in an amount equal to the deductible or self-insured retention guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claims administration and defense expenses.

Contractor is responsible for satisfaction of the deductible and/or self-insured retention for each loss.

Umbrella/Excess Liability Policies
If an Umbrella or Excess Liability Policy is used to meet the liability limits, coverage shall be as broad as specified for underlying coverages and cover those insured in the underlying policies.

Subcontractors
CONTRACTOR shall include all subcontractors as insured under its policies or shall furnish to the City for review and approval, separate certificates and endorsements for each subcontractor. All coverage for subcontractors shall be subject to all of the requirements stated herein.

CONTRACTOR agrees to defend and indemnify the City of Richmond for any damage resulting to it from failure of either CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor to take out or maintain the required insurance policies. The fact that insurance is obtained by CONTRACTOR, and/or CONTRACTOR’s subcontractors, will not be deemed to release or diminish the liability of CONTRACTOR, including, without limitation, liability under the indemnity provisions of this contract. Damages recoverable by CITY from CONTRACTOR or any third party will not be limited by the amount of the required insurance coverage.

Verification of Coverage
All original certificates and endorsements shall be received and approved by the City before work may begin.

The City of Richmond reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies including endorsements affecting the coverage at any time.

Original insurance certificates and required policy endorsements shall be mailed or delivered to the Designated Project Manager for the City of Richmond.

Insurance certificates and endorsements may be faxed to the Designated Project Manager. However, Contractor must mail the original certificates and endorsements to Designated Project Manager once faxed.

Continuous Coverage
CONTRACTOR shall maintain the required insurance for the life of the contract. Should the CONTRACTOR cease to have insurance as required during this time, all work by the CONTRACTOR pursuant to this agreement shall cease until insurance acceptable to the City is provided. In the event that CONTRACTOR fails to comply with the City’s insurance requirements, the City may take such action as it deems necessary to protect the City’s interests. Such action may include but is not limited to termination of the contract, withholding of payments, or other actions as the City deems appropriate.

If services or the scope of work extend beyond the expiration dates of the required insurance policies initially approved by the City, CONTRACTOR must provide updated certificates and endorsements indicating that the required coverage, terms and conditions are still in place. Renewal certificates and updated endorsements shall be mailed to the Designated Project Manager.

Cancellation
CONTRACTOR shall ensure that coverage shall not be cancelled, reduced or otherwise materially changed except after thirty (30) days’ prior written notice has been given to the City.

Reporting Requirements
Any failure to comply with reporting or other provisions of the policies including breaches of warranties shall not affect coverage provided to the City, its officers, officials, employees or volunteers.

Consistent with Public Policy
The insuring provisions, insofar as they may be judged to be against public policy shall be void and unenforceable only to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining terms and provisions herein may be consistent with public policy and thus enforceable.

___ Exhibit F
___ Section 8
City of Richmond - Insurance Requirements - Type 2:

Professional Services
Type 2 – Page 1 of 3
Revised: September 2011
In all instances where CONTRACTOR or its representatives will provide professional services (architects, engineers, construction management, counselors, medical professionals, hospitals, clinics, attorneys, consultants, accountants, etc.) to the City of Richmond (City), the City requires the following MINIMUM insurance requirements and limits.

CONTRACTOR shall procure and maintain for the duration of the contract, agreement, or other order for work, services or supplies, insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the work hereunder and the results of that work by the CONTRACTOR, its agents, representatives, employees or subcontractors. Maintenance of proper insurance coverage is a material element of the contract. Failure to maintain or renew coverage or to provide evidence of renewal may be treated by the City as a material breach of contract.

CONTRACTOR agrees that in the event of loss due to any of the perils for which it has agreed to provide Commercial General Liability insurance, CONTRACTOR shall look solely to its insurance for recovery.

CONTRACTOR hereby grants to CITY, on behalf of any insurer providing Commercial General Liability insurance to either CONTRACTOR or CITY with respect to the services of CONSULTANT herein, a waiver of any right to subrogation which any such insurer of said CONTRACTOR may acquire against the CITY by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance.

Original, signed certificates and original, separate policy endorsements, naming the City as an additional insured for general liability coverage, as well as a waiver of subrogation for Workers’ Compensation insurance, shall be received and approved by the City before any work may begin. However, failure to do so shall not operate as a waiver of these insurance requirements.

City reserves the right to modify or require additional coverages for specific risk exposures depending on scope of CONTRACTORS work.

Minimum coverage is detailed below. The policy limits of coverage shall be made available to the full limits of the policy. The minimum limits stated herein shall not serve to reduce the policy limits of coverage of CONTRACTOR.

Minimum Scope of Insurance – the following forms shall be provided and coverage shall be at least as broad as the following:

1. Insurance Services Office Commercial General Liability coverage (ISO Occurrence Form CG 0001), and including coverage for bodily and personal injury, property damage, and products and completed operations (if applicable).

2. Insurance Services Office Automobile Liability coverage (ISO Form CA 0001, Code 1, Any Auto).

3. Original and Separate Additional Insured Endorsemen t for General Liability (ISO Form CG 20 10 11/85 or its equivalent) with primary and non-contributory language.

4. Workers’ Compensation Insurance as required by the State of California including Employer’s Liability coverage.

5. Original and Separate Waiver of Subrogation for Workers’ Compensation insurance.

6. Professional Liability or Errors & Omissions Liability Insurance appropriate to the CONTRACTOR’s profession (if required.)
Required Coverage Minimum Limits
Workers’ Compensation and
Employers’ Liability
Statutory limits as required by the State of California including $1 million Employers’ Liability per accident, per employee for bodily injury or disease.

If CONTRACTOR is self-insured, provide a certificate of Permission to Self- Insure, signed by the California Department of Industrial Relations and Self- Insurance. If contractor is a sole proprietor (has no employees) than contractor must sign “Contractor Release of Liability” found at:
http://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/index.aspx?nid=61.

General Liability
(primary and excess limits
combined)
$2,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage. If the policy includes a general aggregate, either the general aggregate shall apply separately to this project, service or location or the minimum required aggregate limit shall be twice the per occurrence limit ($4 million aggregate limit).

Policy shall be endorsed to name the City of Richmond as an additional insured per the conditions detailed below.

___ Exhibit F
___ Section 8
City of Richmond - Insurance Requirements - Type 2:

Professional Services
Type 2 – Page 3 of 3
Revised: September 2011
Claims-Made Policies
If any insurance policy is written on a claims-made form: 1) the retroactive date must be shown, and must be before the date of the contract or the beginning of contract work. 2) Insurance must be maintained and evidence of insurance must be provided for at least five (5) years after completion of the contract of work. 3) If coverage is canceled or non-renewed, and not replaced with another claims-made policy form with a retroactive date prior to the contract effective date, the Contractor must purchase an extended period coverage for a minimum of five (5) years after completion of contract work.

Subcontractors
CONTRACTOR shall include all subcontractors as insured under its policies or shall furnish to the City for review and approval, separate certificates and endorsements for each subcontractor. All coverage for subcontractors shall be subject to all of the requirements stated herein.

CONTRACTOR agrees to defend and indemnify the City of Richmond for any damage resulting to it from failure of either CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor to take out or maintain the required insurance policies. The fact that insurance is obtained by CONTRACTOR, and/or CONTRACTOR’s subcontractors, will not be deemed to release or diminish the liability of CONTRACTOR, including, without limitation, liability under the indemnity provisions of this contract. Damages recoverable by CITY from CONTRACTOR or any third party will not be limited by the amount of the required insurance coverage.

Verification of Coverage
All original certificates and endorsements shall be received and approved by the City before work may begin .

The City of Richmond reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies including endorsements affecting the coverage at any time.

Original insurance certificates and required policy endorsements shall be mailed or delivered to the Designated Project Manager for the City of Richmond.

Insurance certificates and endorsements may be faxed to the Designated Project Manger. However, CONTRACTOR must mail the original certificates and endorsements to Designated Project Manager once faxed.

Continuous Coverage
CONTRACTOR shall maintain the required insurance for the life of the contract. Should the CONTRACTOR cease to have insurance as required during this time, all work by the CONTRACTOR pursuant to this agreement shall cease until insurance acceptable to the City is provided. In the event that CONTRACTOR fails to comply with the City’s insurance requirements, the City may take such action as it deems necessary to protect the City’s interests. Such action may include but is not limited to termination of the contract, withholding of payments, or other actions as the City deems appropriate.

If services or the scope of work extend beyond the expiration dates of the required insurance policies initially approved by the City, CONTRACTOR must provide updated certificates and endorsements indicating that the required coverage, terms and conditions are still in place. Renewal certificates and updated endorsements shall be mailed to the Designated Project Manager.

Cancellation
CONTRACTOR shall ensure that coverage shall not be cancelled, reduced or otherwise materially changed except after thirty (30) days’ prior written notice has been given to the City.

Reporting Requirements
Any failure to comply with reporting or other provisions of the policies including breaches of warranties shall not affect coverage provided to the City, its officers, officials, employees or volunteers.

Consistent with Public Policy
The insuring provisions, insofar as they may be judged to be against public policy shall be void and unenforceable only to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining terms and provisions herein may be consistent with public policy and thus enforceable.

FINANCIAL IMPACT: The policy development work of the Housing Fellow is funded by a Breakthrough Grant, received from the San
Francisco Foundation for the period of June 2022
through May 2024. After the policy is adopted, staff will present on the expected budget for staffing related to the policy implementation and administration.

PREVIOUS COUNCIL
ACTION:

December 19, 2023 - City staff provided a summary
report of the key components of an Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy and Draft Policy Framework for the
City Council’s and public’s consideration. City staff
incorporated feedback received on the draft into the
proposed policy framework.

STATEMENT OF THE
ISSUE:

Currently, the City does not have a comprehensive policy to inform both process and priorities for the use of its surplus properties. The City of Richmond would benefit
from an established policy whereby the public and City
staff have a common framework for how City-owned
properties will be utilized to achieve public benefit.

Furthermore, the use of public land for affordable housing is a state law requirement and regional strategy, and a local policy would align with those processes and carry out the City’s housing goals and objectives from the
Housing Element. City staff provided a summary report of the key components of an Equitable Public Land
Disposition Policy and Draft Policy Framework for the

the draft into the proposed policy framework.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

ADOPT a resolution establishing the Equitable Public
Land Disposition Policy - Community Development
Department (Lina Velasco/Kaitlyn Quackenbush 510-
620-6841).

DISCUSSION:

Background

In 2021, the City, along with the Richmond community-based organization RichmondLAND1, applied for a Breakthrough Grant from the Partnership for the Bay’s Future to: 1) design and implement strategies to enable community land trusts to acquire public land; 2) create an inventory of vacant and blighted properties; and 3) create a Public Land Policy package to encourage and enable production of permanently affordable housing.

Managed by the San Francisco Foundation, the Breakthrough Grant requires that local governments partner with local community organizations to ensure community voices are represented in the policy process. A housing policy fellow is then embedded in each entity to serve as a catalyst to advance policy innovation. The City of Richmond and RichmondLAND were awarded the grant, and a housing fellow was assigned in June 2022, for a 24-month period.

Upon placement, the housing policy fellow worked with City staff in the Community Development Department and RichmondLAND staff to co-develop policy goals and objectives to meet the priorities set out in the Breakthrough Grant. The Equitable Public Land Disposition policy is one of the grant’s key policy objectives.

What is an Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy?

Equitable Public Land Disposition policies can maximize public good by selling or leasing the land at below market prices to reduce development costs and improve the financial feasibility of public good investments, such as the affordability of housing.

The City of Richmond’s Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy proposal outlines the goals for developing housing on city-owned land and criteria to guide the process to select and then lease or sell parcels of surplus city-owned land in order to prioritize the creation of affordable rental and homeownership housing, with a strong preference for development proposals that maximize affordability and create permanent affordability through a community ownership development model.

Utilizing Public Land for Affordable Housing is a State and Regional Strategy

The Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy is an integral part of a broader state and regional strategy for addressing housing affordability.

The California Surplus Land Act – updated by AB1486 in 2020 – requires that unused public land be prioritized for affordable housing while reducing cost barriers to housing development. Local jurisdictions are required to submit designated surplus land to the State, to market to affordable housing developers, and to notice the Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) of development negotiations. HCD will then review development proposals, ensuring that affordable housing thresholds are met.

Public land reuse for affordable housing is one of the eight housing strategies identified in Plan Bay Area 2050 – the Bay Area’s long-range regional plan – to meet present and future housing needs. According to Plan Bay Area 2050, reuse of public lands would provide 170,000 permanently affordable homes for low- and middle-income families, with homes in transit- and opportunity-rich communities across the Bay Area.2 In the region, only the City of San Francisco has an adopted Public Land Policy, and the City of Oakland is currently developing a framework for a Public Land Policy. If adopted, Richmond’s public land policy could serve as a model for other Contra Costa County and Bay Area jurisdictions for both complying with state law and prioritizing local community and development needs.

In addition to aligning with state and regional processes, Richmond’s Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy would carry out key policies and programs within the City’s 6th Cycle Housing Element Update (HEU).

Per City’s Housing Element Program 6.R: Equitable Public Land Policy, the City will conduct robust community engagement, including engaging a minimum of 300 residents from Richmond’s lower income neighborhoods by December 2023; adopt a new Equitable Public Land policy in consultation with Community Land Trusts, Limited Equity Cooperatives, and other non-profit entities that prioritize permanently affordable housing while supporting homeowner equity attainment and renter stabilization; immediate and long-term housing solutions for unhoused residents; and issue annual Notice of Availability, for one to two parcels to provide a minimum of six units beginning September 2024.3 Richmond's Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy plays a vital role in a broader state and regional strategy aimed at addressing housing affordability and meeting local housing objectives.

Affordable Housing Production and Need

Richmond’s Affordable Housing Production
The City of Richmond has made significant efforts to meet the needs of residents and generate affordable housing. In contrast to other Contra Costa County jurisdictions, during the 2015 to 2021 planning cycle, Richmond issued permits for 100 percent of its very low-income housing goal (438 Units) and 70 percent of its low-income housing goal (214 Units).4 Below is a map of the existing affordable housing developments within the City as of February 2024. The map shows that the City has 29 affordable housing developments, totaling 3,991 units. In addition to the developments mapped below, the City recently approved two additional projects: the 131-unit 100 38th Street project, proposed by Eden Housing and Community Housing Development Corporation and the 150-unit Metrowalk Phase 2 project proposed by Pacific West Communities, with several others also in the development pipeline. An important item to note is that qualifying low-income rental housing with rents 80% or below of Area Medium Income, owned and operated by qualifying organizations, can seek a welfare exemption from property taxes, further reducing the City’s property tax revenue.

Regional Affordable Housing Production
The Bay Area region faces a dire shortage of affordable homes, especially for the lowest income families. Bay Area cities are not producing enough affordable housing to meet housing needs and continue to lose existing affordable homes. This shortage drives up housing costs. Figure 2. shows that only an estimated 12% of Bay Area housing units are affordable. Only 9% of housing units are affordable within Contra Costa County. Richmond’s need for more affordable housing is part of a much larger regional crisis.

Figure 2. Bay Area Affordable Units
Figure 2. Source: Department of Finance (2023) and California Housing Partnership (2023) According to analysis by the California Housing Partnership, as of May 2023, within Contra Costa County 60% of the total residential units were unsubsidized affordable and 40% subsidized affordable, meaning developments assisted and/or subsidized by HUD, USDA, CalHFA, and the Low-Income Housing Tax Credi. Nine percent of all residential units are affordable in Contra Costa County. See Table 1. below comparing unsubsidized and subsidized affordable housing across all Bay Area counties. Next, Table 2, looks specifically at subsidized affordable housing across Contra Costa County jurisdictions, taking the unit count mapped above in Figure 1 and comparing it to the subsidized unit counts for neighboring Contra Costa County jurisdictions. Richmond has the highest subsidized affordable housing unit count in the county, and it also has the highest number of developments.

Table 2. Source: California Housing Partnership total units, unsub affordable, sub affordable May 2023 Richmond has made great progress in building affordable housing over the past decades and in meeting its regional housing needs allocation for very low income in the most recent planning cycle. Relative to Contra Costa County jurisdictions, Richmond is amongst the leaders in affordable housing production. Yet, the need for affordable housing still exists. Richmond residents experience the impacts of a regional and statewide housing shortage in addition to a growing gap between wages and housing costs. These dual pressures mean there is much more the City of Richmond must do to meet the needs of its current residents.

Richmond’s Affordable Housing Need
Richmond’s history, demographics, and geography create distinctive and pressing requirements for affordable housing. Overall, household income in Richmond is lower than that of Contra Costa County. Richmond’s median household income in 2020 was $68,472 compared to the County’s median income of $99,716. The concentration of high-income households in Richmond is lower than in the County and the region.6 Additionally, Richmond is often the first place lower-income people move to when relocating into Contra Costa County because of its lower housing prices. As a result, while Richmond has a higher need for, and consequently concentration of, affordable housing, this fact attracts new residents to Richmond, which in turn, increases the competition for and cost of housing as well as the need for more affordable housing.

This additional demand for housing contributes to rising rental and home prices in Richmond. Housing costs in Richmond grew considerably over the past decade.

Between 2011 and 2020, the typical value of a Richmond home increased by 159 percent from $247,317 to $641,530. Additionally, between 2015 and 2019, Richmond median rent increased by 25 percent.7 See Figure 5. and Figure 6. below illustrating the rising cost of housing in Richmond, Contra Costa County, and the region.

Higher rents and housing costs have left significant portions of the population struggling to secure stable, affordable housing. According to Zillow, as of February 2024, the median rent for a two-bedroom apartment in Richmond is $2,495, while the Richmond Minimum Wage is $17.20. Someone working full time earning minimum wage and 135

renting a two-bedroom apartment would have approximately $575 remaining after paying rent in an average month. Looking beyond minimum wage earners, over 50 percent of all Richmond residents are rent burdened, meaning they pay more than 30 percent of their income on rent.8 This means that many residents have limited disposable income and are one unplanned expense, such as a medical bill or car accident, away from not affording rent and possibly facing eviction and homelessness.

According to the Contra Costa County Homeless Continuum of Care 2021 Annual Report, 30% of County residents who lost their housing did so in west county, including the City of Richmond.9 As noted in Homelessness is a Housing Problem, “High rental costs and low vacancy rates create a challenging market for many residents in a city, and those challenges are compounded for people with low incomes and/or physical or mental health concerns.”10

The Equitable Public Land Disposition policy is an equitable economic development tool that can ameliorate current housing cost burden and risk of homelessness by maximizing affordability and community serving uses on public land.

Utilizing City-Owned Land to Address the Need for Affordable Housing and Foster Economic Development in Richmond

A recent study revealed that rent-burdened households would have significantly higher disposable incomes if not for the strain of excessive rental payments. The average disposable income for rent burdened households in Contra Costa County overall would have been $9,262 higher with no rent burden.11 This reality not only impacts individual families but also stifles the potential for robust local economic growth. However, there exists a pathway towards alleviating this burden and fostering economic development:
the availability of affordable housing. By reducing the housing cost burden, households could redirect funds towards essential family needs and local businesses, nurturing economic resilience and the emergence of diverse, mixed-income neighborhoods. 12

The City of Richmond currently owns hundreds of vacant sites, and many more with structures or current city uses. In 2020, the City Council passed resolution 146- 20approving the City’s inventory of leased and owned properties pursuant to Government Code Section 50569 and declared 14 parcels as Surplus Land and 71 parcels as Exempt Surplus Land in accordance with the California Surplus Land Act.13 Today, these 14 parcels could be marketed and developed for housing that meets the needs of Richmond residents. Currently, the City does not have a comprehensive policy to inform both process and priorities for the use of its surplus properties. The City of Richmond would benefit from an established policy whereby the public and City staff have a common framework for how City-owned properties will be utilized to achieve

public benefit. Going forward, the Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy would ensure a sustainable process for designating land surplus and exempt-surplus and it would guide the development of hundreds of city-owned parcels over the years to come; thereby ensuring access to safe affordable housing, economic development opportunities and mixed income neighborhoods.

The Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy Compliments Richmond’s Housing and Land Use Policy Landscape

The Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy seamlessly integrates with Richmond's housing and land use policies. Richmond has implemented several programs to address housing needs: (1) the Fair Rent, Just Cause for Eviction, and Homeowner Protection Ordinance stabilize rents and protect tenants; (2) the establishment of the City’s first Community Land Trust fosters affordable ownership opportunities; (3) the Fair Chance to Access Affordable Housing Ordinance regulates housing provider inquiries into arrest and conviction records; (4) the Tenant Anti-Harassment Ordinance prevents landlord harassment; (5) the Inclusionary Housing and Linkage Fee Ordinance mandates affordable housing in new developments and generates funding; and (6) the Zoning Ordinance of 2016 promotes density and incentivizes affordable, senior, and accessible housing.

Richmond's success in meeting its production goals for above-market-rate housing reflects its commitment to fostering a diverse range of housing options. By facilitating the production of both market-rate and affordable housing, Richmond aims to create vibrant communities with mixed income neighborhoods. Currently, many of Richmond’s subsidized affordable housing is concentrated in central and south Richmond. The Equitable Public Land Disposition policy will be a critical tool for facilitating the development of affordable housing across the city of Richmond, including in currently economically exclusive areas. City-owned land exists across the entirety of the city, in every neighborhood and council district. Alongside the current Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, the Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy complements Richmond's efforts toward creating equitable housing and inclusive communities.

Developing the Equitable Public Land Policy

Cross-Sector Collaboration
As part of the Partnership for the Bay’s Future Breakthrough Grant, the community engagement and policy development processes were grounded in a cross-sectoral approach, bringing together leaders from the Richmond community and government to find the solutions. RichmondLAND, as the community partner to the City of Richmond, has worked to ensure that Richmond resident voices are represented in this policy process. As partners, they support the Housing Fellow by helping them understand local context and build trust with the community, as well as providing input for the policy development process.

137

March 5, 2024
Community Engagement
The City of Richmond through its partnership with RichmondLAND began engaging Richmond residents about a possible public land policy in July 2022. From July to November 2022, the City of Richmond initiated robust community engagement around a potential public land policy. First, through the Resident Advisory Council (RAC) for the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) initiative. Post-AFFH, the City intensified its commitment with Neighborhood Outreach and Community Meetings, fostering continuous direct communication with residents. Targeted efforts extended to Neighborhood Councils, and in September and October 2023, Focus Groups engaged Non-Profit Affordable Housing Providers and Richmond Community-Based Organizations, to glean insights for shaping the public land policy. The ongoing Community Survey since August 2023 provided a platform for residents to voice opinions about development on City-owned land. Pop Up Events facilitated by the City further gathered community input. These efforts have empowered Richmond residents' priorities and needs to deeply inform the policy development process. In total, the City of Richmond and RichmondLAND have collectively engaged 350 residents and held over 30 community engagement meetings and/or focus groups.14

Why this is important to Richmond residents and Community-Based Organizations Through the community engagement process, the City has surprised residents by revealing that it owns many of the vacant lots they have seen in their neighborhoods throughout their lives. When asked, residents asserted that publicly owned land should be utilized to address the housing crisis displacing their neighbors. Residents want opportunities to support and lead the solutions to address housing unaffordability and instability in the City of Richmond. Richmond community-based organizations working on issues ranging from park development and environmental justice to housing justice are recognizing that residents need to be in the driver seat for development decisions.

Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy Purpose
Establish Policy Standards: The primary purpose of this policy is to establish a set of standards to guide the City's process for the disposition, which can include either the lease or sale of city-owned land, ensuring alignment with the goals of the Equitable Public Land Policy.

Promote Community Serving Uses: In addition to maximizing affordable housing potential, this policy supports the development of neighborhood serving commercial and recreational spaces such as community gardens, playgrounds, grocery stores, community centers, and other businesses/services that contribute to the health, education, safety, and general wellbeing of residents. Projects will be favored where commercial uses promote community control by utilizing co-operative ownership models.

14 Public engagement efforts are tracked for Breakthrough Grant purposes by the Housing Fellow and analyzed by the evaluation firm, Informing Change.

March 5, 2024
Ensure Transparency and Community Involvement: The policy aims to ensure transparency in the City's property lease or disposition process and requires the active involvement of local communities in the entire process, including developer selection, proposal review, and the project development itself.

Maximize Permanently Affordable Housing15,16: The policy sets forth a clear objective that all housing built on public lands in Richmond should maximize the amount of affordable housing at extremely low, very low-, low-, and moderate-income affordability levels, and ideally produce permanent affordable housing.

Sustain Inventory Maintenance: The policy requires that the City establish a standardized process for assessing City-owned land, including a staff lead, and, that no later than one year following approval of the policy, begin providing an annual inventory of surplus and underutilized sites for City Council and public notice, promoting efficient land use.

Promote Community Control: The City seeks to promote community-controlled permanent affordable housing, favoring project proposals that meet or exceed affordability requirements and establish community ownership and/or permanent affordability through a 99-year ground lease, Community Land Trust, or similar model.

Enable Land Discounts: Projects that meet the criteria of the "Equitable Public Land Policy" and maximize affordability may receive land discounts if the reduced development costs enable housing affordability beyond minimum requirements.

15 The Public Land Policy aligns with the City of Richmond's Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) Analysis from the 6th Cycle Housing Element Update. It addresses Fair Housing Contributing Factors, such as market-force displacement and the lack of historic public investments in specific neighborhoods.

To tackle displacement due to rising rents, the AFFH analysis recommends expanding land trust programs and prioritizing affordable housing development in public land policies. The Public Land Policy also aims to counter historic disinvestment in low-income neighborhoods of color by repurposing vacant City-owned parcels for community-serving affordable housing. 16 The Public Land Policy complements other City of Richmond development initiatives, including the Inclusionary Ordinance and the 6th Cycle Housing Element Sites Inventory. The Sites Inventory, which identifies potential sites for housing development across the city, proposes diverse development, including moderate, mixed, and above-moderate sites in neighborhoods with surplus city-owned land. By promoting affordable housing on this surplus land, the aim is to ensure these neighborhoods have a range of housing options, not limited to moderate and above-moderate or low-income alone.

Simultaneously, the Inclusionary Ordinance secures affordable housing opportunities in higher-income and resource-rich neighborhoods. Collectively, these policies and plans work together to provide affordable housing options for low-income and housing-cost-burdened households throughout the City of Richmond. See AFFH Appendix F 151-156.

Codify Anti-Speculation Measures: Conveyances of city-owned property under this policy must include covenants that prohibit any developer from reselling, transferring, or subleasing the property above moderate income levels or 120% of area median income at a profit , incorporating "anti-speculation" requirements.

Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy Benefits

This policy represents a crucial step towards fostering a more inclusive, resilient, and vibrant community. The Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy serves as a comprehensive framework to guide the city's approach to the use of public land, ensuring that it is harnessed to maximize the public good. The Equitable Public Land Disposition Policy addresses the following:

Affordable Housing Crisis: Richmond, like many cities in California, is grappling with an escalating affordable housing crisis. Higher rents and housing costs have left a significant portion of the population struggling to secure stable, affordable housing.17 As of 2019, 56 percent of Richmond residents are rent burdened, meaning they pay more than 30 percent of their income on rent. 27 percent pay more than 50 percent of their monthly income on rent.18 The Equitable Public Land Disposition policy directly tackles this crisis by prioritizing affordable housing as a primary land use for city-owned land.

Displacement Prevention: According to the Urban Displacement Project, over 60 percent of low-income households in Richmond live in neighborhoods at risk of gentrification and displacement.19 Residents with low income should have the opportunity to remain and thrive as new investments arrive in their neighborhoods. By incorporating community land trust development models, this policy creates a unique pathway for residents to access affordable housing while participating in community wealth-building. Community land trusts are a proven mechanism for achieving long-term affordability, preventing displacement, and facilitating intergenerational wealth transfer.20,21

17 According to Zillow, as of February 2024, the Median Rent for a 2-bedroom apartment in Richmond is $2,495, while the Richmond Minimum Wage is $17.20. Someone working full time earning minimum wage, would have approximately $575 remaining after rent in an average month. 18Just Cities, LLC. (2022). (rep.).
