Mayor O’Brien Opened Public Comment at 6:42P.M.
Jami Aggers, Modesto Resident outside the City of Riverbank, but within the project area of the proposed River Walk Project, you have heard from me many times over the past few years. I would just like to share with you, as I have been walking the neighborhood in recent months and in talking to folks about not only the River Walk proposed project but our proposed ballot initiative, and while you don’t have to represent me because I do not live within your boundaries you should be concerned about the comments that we are hearing from your residents. Some of the common threads that people are sharing with us number one, they are unaware and are shocked to learn about the proposed River Walk development, and they are generally very thankful that we are pursuing the ballot measure. They want to learn more about it, how they can talk to their friends, neighbors, relatives. They want copies of our brochures. So, while you don’t have to represent me or my cohorts that working on this project, you should hopefully be concerned about the people who live within your boundaries, and I just want make sure, you knew the kinds of comments that we are regularly receiving. And again, when this project comes before you, please consider voting no.
Olivia Arambula, with Timeless Real Estate commenting on behalf of the Chamber of Commerce, because I am now the Ambassador for the Chamber of Commerce. Would like to share some events that are coming up and invite everyone, community and council.

Item 12.1 Staff
City Manager Garcia reported on the following:
• City offices will be closed for the Thanksgiving holiday starting Wednesday, November 20th, through Friday, November 24th.
• Our City’s Annual Christmas parade is going to be on Saturday, December 9 th

Starting at 3:00pm, the parade itself begins at 5:00pm, and we will have the Christmas tree lighting and pictures with Santa afterwards in the Del Rio Plaza.
• I'm really excited to share, for those who were not able to join us last week for the Sierra House day use facility. It is officially open. Yesterday we did have 4 residents who came to use the facilities. We're extremely happy that the word is getting out.
We're glad to be able to see it in use now, and especially as the weather turns colder. A nice hot shower, I'm sure, certainly helps. the day us facility is located at 3346 Sierra Street, and, as I mentioned, it, provides shower services and clean clothing to our unhoused residents, and we also have our onsite case manager, Seth Anderson from Cambridge Academies, who's providing additional services to the residents to fulfil whatever needs they have, whether it be medical or looking to get documentation, whether it's ids or birth certificates, anything that they might need assistance with. We're providing he is there on a daily basis to accept any donations. We do ask that you log on to our website. We do have a Sierra House website and our Facebook page, where we've shared an Amazon link. Wish list so that we can get all of the supplies that we need to run the house. • As part of our efforts to continue to provide services to our unhoused residents.
The city does participate as board members of the Stanislaus community system of care and the Stanislaus Homeless Alliance. And so, I want to take this time to congratulate Councilmember Barber Martinez who was just appointed as Co. Chair of the Stanislas Homeless Alliance, which we also call the SHA, So, congratulations on that appointment.

The details for the registration will be shared on our website, our social media and via an email for all of those businesses who have business licenses with the city and who provided their email address to us.
• Some upcoming agenda items, I do want to start to share those with you so that you know what we're working on. Some of the items that we're currently reviewing is an update to our massage ordinance to reflect updates made at the state level
CC / LRA Minutes – 11/14/2023
related to certification and permitting, updates to our abandoned vehicle code and then updates to the City Council salaries based on new legislation that will come into effect, starting as of January.
Assistant City Manager Alcantor Commented on the following:
• Wanted to remind the Council and resident, our sewer rate plan that we have in place will have an annual increase on January. It will be effective in your March bill, that you get out in March first. And the increase is approximately $11 a month, for regular residential, a single residential.
Item 12.2 Council/Authority Member
Councilmember Jones Cruz reported on the following:
• I got a chance to attend the opening for the Sierra Day House facility and I'm sure, along with the rest of the council members and the mayor and city staff, I felt really proud that we were able to have that open and kind of a long time coming. And it's just was a really cool thing to see, even in the drizzly rain. The turnout, for that was pretty amazing.
• And with that said, and we kind of head into the Thanksgiving holiday here, and it always makes me stop and wonder, and ponder on things I'm thankful for, and one of the things I'm extremely thankful for. Is to live in this amazing city, and I'm just proud to be part of it, and glad I'm here started my life here, and here's why I am so proud to be here. Thanks.
Councilmember Uribe reported on the following:
• Thank you, Leanne for mentioning the day use facility. I had opportunity to visit it yesterday. After the first full day of being officially open got to donate my first blazer there. I'm getting a lot of good positive feedback from the community Seth, and there's and wants to thank t everybody that's already donated. They are still seeking some more donations, some hygiene items and stuff like that. So, thank you. Looking forward to just continuing to stay updated from Seth and continue to donate as much as I can get the word out for him.
• This Friday, will be spending some time with Randy and Love Riverbank Committee. Love Riverbank is going to be kicking off the very first meeting, and I know they did an amazing job last year, looking forward to next year.
Councilmember Barber-Martinez reported on the following:
• Looking forward to the grand opening of our Sierra House. I think that we are moving the city in the right direction, helping our neighbors, who need us at the most vulnerable time, especially now with it getting cold outside. Hoping there is a way we can know how many our residents came through the programs that we have? So, that we may get some feedback, maybe quarterly. • Another successful, Día de Los Muertos event from the Parks and Rec Department and all our community.
• Today, I attended the Stanislaus Regional Water Authority, ribbon cutting ceremony, for a brand-new facility that is providing water, mostly to Ceres and Turlock. I took a tour, just to see it and I learned a lot.
CC / LRA Minutes – 11/14/2023
• Central Valley Community Resources is hosting a car show and toy drive on December 3
rd from 9am to 2pm at Riverbank SaveMart, and we do have sign ups for Riverbank Residents. Sign-ups are though Casa del Rio our Family Resource Center.
• Happy Thanksgiving to Everyone, see you at the next council meeting.
Vice Mayor Hernandez reported on the following:
• Would like to mention Sierra House, and how it’s going to take us for its continued success. So, please add it to your Christmas Shopping List. • I will be joining the Latino Community Round Table Board, and they serve the entire county, their meetings are around lunchtime once a month on Wednesdays.
Item 12.3 Mayor/Chair
Mayor O’Brien reported on the following:
• We need to take a look at Strategic Planning, and the reason for that is we have a lot of issues that are coming up. One is the State is imposing water conservation on the city of 43% next year, and then ultimately 49%. That means half your water usage has to go away. And we have to determine how we are going to do that.
And how we are going to account for it and who’s going to pay the stat lines? • We also need to take a look at Wastewater Treatment Plant where we go from here, and what’s acceptable what is not acceptable. But, one of the things is that no matter what, the plant needs to be upgraded. And if we go to the tertiary system, then we can dispose of a lot easier.
• We also need to take a look at the conveyance of the LRA, was still slowly grinding.
But I don’t think 24 is the answer this year, this next year on the conveyance. • Our Nexus Fee Study was prepared in 2015, but we had an update on 2020 for traffic and parks is currently being worked on. Everything else should be able to accommodate all the new development that was proposed for Crossroads West.
So, we don’t need a new Nexus fee update, not at this time. We’ve been doing annual updates based on the CPI at this point in time. Should there be future development or should the city complete its water and sewer and storm master plans, and if there are project that are not within the current study, then we would do an update at that time.

Item 10.1 – CC/LRA 12/12/2023
RIVERBANK CITY COUNCIL / LOCAL REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
AGENDA ITEM NO. 10.1
SECTION 10: PUBLIC HEARIING
Meeting Date: December 12, 2023
Subject: First Reading by Title Only and Introduction of an Ordinance, Amending Title VII: Traffic Code, Chapter 71: Stopping, Standing and Parking, Section 71.07 Prohibited and Limited Parking, Subsection (A), of the Riverbank Municipal Code, by Repealing this Section in its Entirety and Substituting it with New Section
71.07 Prohibited and Limited Parking, Subsection (A) of the Riverbank Municipal Code.
From: Marisela H. Garcia, City Manager
Submitted by: Donna M. Kenney, Planning and Building Manager
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council introduce for first reading Ordinance 2023-XXX amending Title VII: Traffic Code, Chapter 71: Stopping, Standing and Parking, Section
71.07 Prohibited and Limited Parking, Subsection (A), by repealing this Section in its entirety and substituting it with new Section 71.07 Prohibited and Limited Parking, Subsection (A), to the Riverbank Municipal Code of Ordinances.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
At times a vehicle is reported parked on the street in excess of the permitted 72-hour time limit. After being cited, the owner is required to relocate or move the vehicle from the location where it was cited. However, ambiguous language found in the Riverbank Municipal Code creates an issue when a Neighborhood Improvement Officer returns for reinspection and the cited vehicle does not appear to have been moved or has only moved a few inches. As such, a clearly defined and established minimum distance whereby a cited vehicle must be relocated would reduce redundancy and confusion between Neighborhood Improvement Officers and the general public.
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
Situations arise where vehicles are left parked on public streets and are often unattended for days. These vehicles can experience vandalism, gather grime, collect cob webs, and generally result in visual blight in neighborhoods. They are an eye-sore to the public and
Item 10.1 – CC/LRA 12/12/2023
can often draw vandals to the area. A long-range, unintended consequence which is concerning to the public is the perceived downward, negative pressure the unattended vehicles have on property values.
Having a designated and significant distance that cited vehicles would be required to be relocated by the 72-hour deadline would assist in the enforcement of the ordinance by removing any claim that any movement of the vehicle, no matter how slight, constitutes a reset of the 72-hour clock. Staff, after consulting with Neighborhood Improvement and Police Services, recommends seventy-five (75) linear feet as the minimum distance by which the vehicle must be moved. This distance would require the vehicle to move a minimum of two houses away. In addition, the new language clarifies who has the authority to enforce this ordinance.
GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
Policy CIRC-1.15: The City will ensure that the pedestrian network is safe, accessible, attractive and efficient, running largely along public spaces (including streets and open spaces), fronted by houses, and avoids uses that generate major breaks in surveillance on routes to and from public transport and other routes used at night. Vehicles left unattended on streets for extended periods of time pose a risk to pedestrians, who must circumnavigate around them. These vehicles take up valuable space in front of homes, blocking the safest and most convenient access for families to enter their properties. They pose an additional safety hazard by blocking the view of activities on the street where other vehicles might come and go, changing the pedestrian’s view.
Implementation Measure CIRC-7: The City will develop and implement a Parking Master Plan to coordinate and manage parking in the City. The Master Plan will include strategies and implementation measures for addressing the City’s parking supply and parking requirements and design standards. The plan will include strategies to optimize the parking supply, especially in the downtown area, through shared parking; development of shared parking facilities; use of on-street parking to meet demand of nearby properties; ensuring parking standards reflect actual parking demand; ensuring parking standards are reduced for properties in walkable and bicycle friendly areas of the City; use innovative design standards, such as tandem parking, stacked parking, and valet parking; and other strategies. The City will develop and include maximum, as well as, minimum parking requirements for new growth areas. None of the above implementation measures would be possible with unattended vehicles prohibiting shared parking, leaving the demand of nearby properties unfulfilled, and skewing parking demand estimates.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The ordinance amendment to the City of Riverbank Municipal Code is exempt from environmental review because it is not considered a project within the meaning of Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
Item 10.1 – CC/LRA 12/12/2023
FISCAL IMPACT
Reduced code enforcement costs including, but not limited to staff hours for the reinspection of cited vehicles which only move a few inches and get additional citizen complaints.
STRATEGIC GOALS
The City of Riverbank’s Strategic Plan and Planning Sessions allow the City Council and staff to reaffirm the City’s Mission Statement, Vision, Core Values and Strategic Areas of Focus while providing direction and guidance in allocating resources, establishing policy and serves as an instrumental tool to help meet the needs for the growing and dynamic community. In addition, objectives are drafted and completed as City staff works toward their long-range goals.
The approval of the proposed amendment to the Riverbank Municipal Code to establish a specific distance for a cited vehicle to be relocated by is not a strategic goal of the City; however, the proposed amendment is consistent with the goal of the City of Riverbank’s General Plan “to be recognized as a premier community where individuals, families and businesses thrive in a safe and beautiful environment.”
PUBLIC NOTICE
The City Council hearing notice was published in the Riverbank News and posted at City Hall North, City Hall South, the Post Office, the Community Center and the City’s website on November 29, 2023.

Item 11.1 – CC/LRA 12/12/2023
RIVERBANK CITY COUNCIL / LOCAL REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
AGENDA ITEM NO. 11.1
SECTION 11: NEW BUSINESS
Meeting Date: December 12, 2023
Subject: Adopt a Resolution to Approve the Records Retention Schedule for the City of Riverbank.
From: Marisela H. Garcia, City Manager
Submitted by: Gabriela Hernandez, City Clerk
Diane Gladwell, Gladwell Governmental Services, Inc.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council review and discuss the adoption of a Resolution authorizing the replacement and implementation of a Retention Schedule for Citywide Records and approving continuous disposal of obsolete records for the City of Riverbank.
SUMMARY
The City is upgrading its records management program, including its records retention policies. The adoption of this retention schedule will result in efficiency gains and cost savings. The City has previously referred to the State of California for their Record Retention specified time periods in which public records are required to be retained.
BACKGROUND
In February 2001, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2001-18 which authorized the replacement and implementation of a Retention Schedule Guideline for citywide records.
The adopted guidelines were based on the adoption of SB 742 in 1999 which required the Secretary of State to create local government records retention guidelines.
Riverbank selected Gladwell Governmental Services, Inc., an expert in local government records, to update its records management program. An update in the existing program was necessary to reduce current and future records storage costs, eliminate duplication of effort, increase efficiency and take advantage of current technology and changes in law.
Item 11.1 – CC/LRA 12/12/2023
The update of the current records management systems is driven by many factors, including:
• Very limited space in City facilities,
• Many departments are filing and storing copies of the same records, • Riverbank produces and manages many permanent records, • Escalating records storage expenses,
• Technology advancements,
• Changes in law
The purpose of the program is to apply efficient and economical methods to the creation, utilization, maintenance, retention, preservation, and disposal of all records managed by the City.
The retention periods are in compliance with all laws and are standard business practice for California cities.
The new retention schedules were written interactively with representatives from all departments participating in the project. They provide clear, specific records descriptions and retention periods, and apply current law and technology to the management of City records. By identifying which department is responsible for maintaining the original record, and by establishing clear retention periods for different categories of records, Riverbank will realize significant savings in labor costs, storage costs, free up filing cabinet and office space, and realize operational efficiencies.
Highlights of City Council retention polices include Agenda Packets, recordings of City Council meetings, minutes, resolutions, and ordinances are all retained Permanently.
It is standard business practice for California cities to authorize the routine destruction of records that have exceeded their adopted retention period, upon the request of the Department Head and with the consent in writing of the Department Head, City Clerk and City Attorney, which is provided in Section 2 of the resolution. This will reduce costs and improve efficiency for the City.
It is also standard business practice for California cities to authorize updates to the schedule without further action of the City Council, which is provided in Section 3.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Riverbank will realize significant savings both in labor and storage expenses; including the avoidance of future storage and/or construction costs.

HOW TO USE RETENTION SCHEDULES
©1995-2021 Gladwell Governmental Services, Inc. (909) 337-3516 - all rights reserved Do not duplicate or distribute without prior written permission A legend explaining the information presented in the retention schedule has been printed on the back of each page for your easy reference; an index to locate records is also provided.
The specified retention period applies regardless of the media of the record: If a record is stored on paper and a computer file on a hard drive, both records should be destroyed (or erased) after the specified period of time has elapsed.
Copies or duplicates of records should never be retained longer than the prescribed period for the original record.
STRUCTURE: CITYWIDE, DEPARTMENTS & DIVISIONS
The City-wide retention schedule includes those records all departments have in common (letters, memorandums, purchase orders, etc.). These records are NOT repeated in the Department retention schedule, unless that department is the Office of Record, and therefore responsible for maintaining the original record for the prescribed length of time.
Each department has a separate retention schedule that describes the records that are unique to their department, or for which they are the Office of Record. Where appropriate, the department retention schedules are organized by Division within that Department. If a record is not listed in your department retention schedule, refer to the City-wide retention schedule. An index will be provided for your reference.
BENEFITS
This retention schedule has been developed by Diane R. Gladwell, MMC, an expert in Municipal Government records, and will provide the City with the following benefits:
• Reduce administrative expenses, expedite procedures
• Free filing cabinet and office space
• Reduce the cost of records storage
• Eliminate duplication of effort within the City
• Find records faster
• Easier purging of file folders
• Determine what media should be used to store records
For questions, please contact the City Clerk.
AUTHORIZATION TO DESTROY RECORDS:
Destruction of an original record that has exceeded its retention period must be authorized according to City Policies & Procedures prior to destroying it.
• If there is a minimum retention (“Minimum 2 years"), destruction of the document must be authorized before it is destroyed, as it is an original record.
Copies, drafts, notes and non-records do NOT require authorization, and can be destroyed “When No Longer Required.”
• If there is NOT a minimum retention ("When No Longer Required"), it does NOT need to be authorized prior to destruction, as it is a preliminary draft / transitory record or a copy.
On every page of the schedules (near the top, just under the column headings) are important instructions, including instructions regarding holds on destroying records. “Litigation, complaints, claims, public records act requests, audits and/or investigations suspend normal retention periods (retention resumes after settlement or completion).”

(909) 337-3516 - all rights reserved Do not duplicate or distribute without prior written permission OFR (Office of Record): The department that keeps the original or “record copy.” Usually it is the department that originates the record, unless the item is for a City Council meeting (then it is the City Clerk.)
Records Description: The record series (a group of like records).
Transitory Records not retained in the ordinary course of business, that do NOT have substantive content: Preliminary drafts, notes, or interagency or intraagency memoranda and records having only transitory value. Examples: Telephone messages, meeting room reservation schedules, logs, source records entered into a computer system that qualifies as a “trusted system”, etc.
Non-Record: Documents, studies, books and pamphlets produced by outside agencies, preliminary drafts not retained in the ordinary course of business.
Retention/Disposition: Active: How long the file remains in the immediate office area (guideline) Inactive: How long the file is in off-site storage, stored on Optical Disk or Microforms (guideline) Total Retention: The total number of years the record will be retained For file folders containing documents with different retention timeframes, use the document with the longest retention time.

Indefinite = No fixed or specified retention period; used for databases, because the data fields are interrelated.
Vital? = Those records that are needed for basic operations in the event of a disaster.
Media Options (guideline) – the form of the record: Mag = Electronic Computer Magnetic Media (Hard drives, Networks, USB Drives, Cloud, etc.) Mfr = Microforms (aperture cards, microfilm, microfiche, or jackets) Ppr = Paper
OD = Optical Disk, CD-r, DVD-r, WORM, or other media which does not allow changes Scan / Import (guideline): “S” indicates the record should be scanned into the document imaging system; “I” indicates the record should be electronically imported into the document imaging system; “M” indicates the record should be microfilmed
Destroy Paper after Imaged & QC’d / Trustworthy Electronic Record: “Yes” indicates the electronic record may serve as the OFFICIAL record (and the paper version may be destroyed, or the record may be electronically generated and never exist in paper format;) IF the document has been imaged (electronically generated, scanned or imported and placed on Unalterable Media or Immutable Cloud Media, DVD-R, CD-R, or WORM cation, or microfilmed) which is stored in a safe & separate location, and both the images and indexing Quality Checked (“QC’d”).
