Proclamation for Hispanic Heritage Month September 15th to October 15th, 2024 and Honoring Mr. Jose Enrique Morales for His Contributions to the Riverbank Community
Marisela H. Garcia, City Manager
Jessica Barragan, Administrative Assistant - Confidential

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council present the Proclamation in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15th to October 15th, 2023, to longtime Riverbank resident Mr. Jose Morales, member of Central Valley Community Resources, Inc. a local Riverbank non-profit.

SUMMARY
The month of September 15th to October 15th is recognized Nationally as Hispanic Heritage Month. The City of Riverbank is celebrating by distinguishing the rich history and contributions made by the Hispanic and Latino individuals.

Today, over 60 million people, or 18.5 percent of the American population, are of Hispanic or Latino origin. We celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month to recognize the achievements and contributions of Hispanic American champions who have inspired others to achieve success and expressing our appreciation of our Hispanic community.

Today we honor Mr. Jose Enrique Morales who is Puerto Rican from Guayanilla, Puerto Rico. He came to the mainland of the United States as a teenager and settled in California. He resided in Bakersfield with family and friends for several years. He moved to Hayward and then to the Modesto area, settling in Riverbank in 2004. For over 50 years he worked in the auto body technician field. You wreck your car; Jose will fix it just like brand new. He is a small business owner of J & A Autobody and has a passion for restoring older cars. Jose loves giving back to his community. He volunteers for Central Valley Community Resources by being the chef for Crab Feeds, Senior Citizen Brunch, the Veterans Luncheon, and various fundraisers. He is Vice President of P.R.O.U.D. the Puerto Rican Organization United for Development. Jose is proud to share his Hispanic Puerto Rican culture. He does a lot of this by the way he cooks his delicious food. Jose

Item 7.1 – CC/LRA 09/10/2024
is a steadfast 49’s fan and has 6 children, 13 grandchildren, and 6 great-grandchildren and soon to be 8. That is a big family party when we all get together. Jose is a quiet man always willing to give a helping hand by serving his community.

BACKGROUND
According to the Library of Congress, the observation began in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage week under President Lyndon B. Johnson. In 1988, President Ronald Reagan expanded it to a month-long observance by celebrating histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America. September 15 is significant because it is the anniversary for Latin American Countries Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua.

Mexico and Chile celebrate independence days on September 16 and September 18.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

A brief report on notable attendance of a meeting or conference or other notable topics of City business shall be made. The Brown Act does not allow for discussion or action of items by the City Council/LRA Board during this time.

Item 12.1 Staff
City Manager Garcia reported on the following:
• City offices are closed on Monday, September 2nd, for the Labor Day holiday. • As mentioned earlier and shared by Olivia, we are working on an interested party group to hold a workshop on the housing element for developers, real estate agents, etc. to be able to continue our efforts, with regards to the housing element in the draft document that will be presented to the City Council. We hope that will come forward within the next month or so for review.

Item 12.2 Council/Authority Member
Councilmember Hernandez reported on the following:
• No comments.

CC / LRA Minutes – 08/27/2024
Councilmember Uribe reported on the following:
• So tonight, I'd like to make a request for an item to be placed on the strategic plan.

I've given a copy to the Council, and the Mayor (as attached). I also have copies if anybody from the public would like to see it. For us to consider becoming a Charter City. I would like the Council and the Mayor to give feedback to staff, if that's something that would be of interest. This information that I've been gathering I'd like to have a full discussion on strategic planning in 2025. Whether or not we should become a Charter City. A little bit of background we are a General Law City. There’s 121 Charter Cities. The California Constitution empowers us as cities under article 11, section 5, which gives the option to adopt a Charter based on the principle that a City rather than the State is in the best position to know what it needs. According to the League California Cities, and I'll quote them “the benefit of becoming a Charter City is that they have supreme authority over municipal affairs”. What does that mean? We have supreme authority over regulation of our police. So, our contract with the sheriff's department will not be affected, should continue, as is. How we conduct city elections? We will have that flexibility for special elections. The manner in which municipal officers are elected, we would have that option. Supreme authority over local taxes, not saying we're raising them, but we would have that option. Subgovernment keeps in place our subcommittees, right? So, like our Parks and Rec committee, all of that stays in place. Sister City committee, all of that stays in place. Preserves prevailing wages, but then it also gives us opportunities to save money on projects that where we could add that, you know, added infrastructures to certain projects, whether it's 10% or not. So, some of the main advantages that I can see. So, the city no longer has to rely on the State legislators to side solve these local issues. We'll have the ability to adopt a level of government that we, you know, we see fit. and we're all pushing for local control. Local control is vital. This plan it would cost monies, and it would go out to the voter, and my goal would be to get this to the voters by 2026. But of course, love to have this discussion and place this on strategic plans, so we can have a full discussion of it. Thank you.

Councilmember Barber-Martinez reported on the following:
• I wanted to give an update about the Stanislaus Homeless Alliance, also known as SHA. Our unhoused neighbors that need housing, and they are in the Care Court.

They are a Care Court client will have housing, which is expected to be completed by 12/24. The housing project will be located at 9th and E street, there will be 42 units, and it's called the Bridge Project.
• ECM or Enhanced Care Management is a different approach to care for the whole person. It will address the medical, housing and family support. The medical services are being provided for anyone who has Medi-Cal, it is Health Plan of San Joaquin, there's two more. Kaiser just actually joined also. I can't remember what the other medical plan was. But anyway, so this is supposed to be a good thing, because you're looking at addressing the whole person instead of just having their services split up and then eventually getting services.

CC / LRA Minutes – 08/27/2024
• There's an update for our point in time count, that we had. So far there were 28 individuals who were included that were sheltered and unsheltered. There was no designation as to which one was which, and I asked for some kind of detail, more of a detailed point, so we know how to address and to help our folks that live here in Riverbank.
• In our Restart Program, which is at the Sierra House. Currently right now, we have 6 who have started the program, and they are doing well. They are getting ready to get into a program that is being offered by the Volt. So, they will graduate, being Maintenance Mechanics, and they'll be on their way to be more successful. • I went to the Riverbank night at the Modesto Nuts. I had a great time, and I understand that they're in negotiation talks, so maybe they will be able to stay in town. But anyway, it was a lot of fun. So hopefully, maybe we can do that again next year and have a Riverbank night. But it was great. Thank you.

Vice Mayor Jones Cruz reported on the following:
• No comments.

Item 12.3 Mayor/Chair
Mayor O’Brien reported on the following:
• I was a little surprised. I thought we had a housing element update in March in February of this year. That is not only that, but we had public comments on that.

But I must be mistaken. Can I be enlightened about that? Because we've had it at the at the City Council meeting, Public Hearing? And then we're having another one before it comes back to us. That housing element is not being shied away from, but we'll be tackling it head on so I'd be surprised if we did not have it in February and March. My memory is fading, but not that fast. • I want to commend the staff. Excellent work on the wastewater treatment plant. I know there's a long way to go, and as long as we keep getting the funding that we can get and the grant funding that's available. This project will be completely doable with minimal cost to the rate payer which is our goal. And I want to thank you Neal, and your staff on the job well done.
• And on this the housing, I think we should go visit HCD. I did talk to Senator Gil, and she's all on board. So, we need to arrange and move forward on that.

AGENDA ITEM NO. 9.5
SECTION 9: CONSENT CALENDAR
Meeting Date: September 10, 2024
Subject: Resolution Accepting the Public Improvements for DMG Development, LP for Crossroads West Unit 2
From: Marisela H. Garcia, City Manager
Submitted by: Kathleen Cleek, Development Services Administration Manager RECOMMENDATION:

Council to adopt a Resolution accepting the public improvements required by the Planning Commission and City Council constructed by DMG Development, LP for Crossroads West Unit 2.

SUMMARY:

DMG Development, LP has completed the construction of public improvements for Crossroads West Unit 2 subdivision as required by the Planning Commission and City Council of the City of Riverbank.

The public improvements completed by DMG Development, LP for Crossroads West Unit 2 subdivision have been inspected by the Sr. Construction Inspector and are acceptable. These public improvements consist of pavement, curb, gutter, sidewalk, storm drain collection system, water distribution system, sewer collection system, street lighting system, and landscaping. DMG Development, LP will provide a one (1) year maintenance bond for the public improvements as required by City Ordinance.

In Centennial Park the grass sod experienced an extreme heat wave with temperatures exceeding 110 degrees. As a result of the high temperatures and inadequate irrigation, a portion of the newly installed grass died and was replaced with new grass sod turf.

The newly laid sod is taking root, but in some areas, it has not completely filled in leaving a few dead spots. With the grass issue in the park, DMG Development, LP will continue the maintenance of the park for an additional 90 days from date of acceptance.

This will allow for the new grass to completely fill in.

DMG Development, LP and KB Home North Bay, LLC entered into a Subdivision Improvement Waiver and Consent Agreement dated May 30, 2024. This agreement states that KB Home North Bay, LLC will be responsible for the type 2 slurry seal and

Item 9.5 – CC/LRA 09/10/2024
final permanent thermoplastic striping once they have received certificates of occupancy for all the KB lots.

It is recommended that the Council adopt a resolution accepting the public improvements as required by the Planning Commission and City Council.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

A Community Facilities District was formed to cover the maintenance of this development. There is no financial impact to the City.

Item 9.6– CC/LRA 09/10/2024

RIVERBANK CITY COUNCIL / LOCAL REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
AGENDA ITEM NO. 9.6
SECTION 9: CONSENT CALENDAR
Meeting Date: September 10, 2024
Subject: Resolution Approving the Purchase of a BMW Motorcycle for Riverbank Police Services and Authorizing the Surplus and Sale of 2018 BMW Motorcycle #18-03 to the Sheriff’s Office
From: Marisela H. Garcia, City Manager
Submitted by: Ed Ridenour, Police Chief

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council consider a resolution authorizing the replacement of our 2018 BMW Police Motorcycle (vehicle #18-03) and consider the surplus and sale of it to the Sheriff’s Office to be utilized as an auxiliary Police Motorcycle.

SUMMARY
Riverbank Police Services Traffic Unit is comprised of three (3) deputies who are assigned full-time to traffic operations throughout the City. Their function is to increase traffic safety throughout the city through enforcement and education. Two (2) of the deputies patrol the city on BMW police motorcycles and the other patrols in standard cars or SUV's. BMW has become the industry standard for police motorcycle operations, due to their increased reliability. Our traffic deputies play a vital role in keeping our city safe as they work traffic enforcement, DUI checkpoints, and conduct vehicle collision investigations.

Our two (2) police motorcycles are funded outside of our contract with the Sheriff’s Office and are funded directly through the City. Our most recent motorcycle was replaced in 2020 and the oldest was in 2018. The 2018 police motorcycle (vehicle #18-03) is six years old and currently has over 37,000 miles on it. These motorcycles are put through heavyduty use as compared to motorcycles used for non-commercial applications. The 2018 motorcycle has served the city well; however, it is showing its age with increased maintenance and no warranty coverage. This motorcycle is well beyond the manufacturer's warranty of 36,000 miles or 3 years. Our vehicle life service agreement for our police motorcycles is 40,000 miles or outside of the manufacturer warranty, whichever comes first.

Item 9.6– CC/LRA 09/10/2024
The Sheriff’s Office has offered to purchase the 2018 police motorcycle from the city for Bluebook value. This option would prove most beneficial as the revenue from the 2018 motorcycle would offset the cost of a new police motorcycle. In addition, to the offset cost of a new motorcycle, the Sheriff’s Office plan for the 2018 motorcycle is to keep it as an auxiliary motorcycle that would be used for part-time county-wide traffic operations, police motorcycle training and could be utilized by contract cities in the event one of our motorcycles are out of service for an extended period.

Traditionally there are three (3) pieces of equipment we recycle from aged police motorcycles into a replacement if they are still in serviceable condition. These recycled items include the police radio, radar unit, and wireless communications. With the motorcycle being sold to the Sheriff’s Office and being used for law enforcement operations, the equipment would not be available to be recycled onto a new motorcycle.

The Sheriff’s Office has agreed to purchase a new radio, radar unit, and wireless communications equipment at no cost to the city for the new motorcycle.

Our Police Motorcycles are typically funded through the Traffic Safety Fund. This fund has sufficient funding for the purchase of a new BMW Police Motorcycle.

STRATEGIC PLAN
This item is directly related to the City Council’s Strategic Plan Goal to “Improve Public Safety.”

FINANCIAL IMPACT
We received a quote for a new 2025 BMW Police Motorcycle for $31,212.71. The current Bluebook value of the 2018 motorcycle (vehicle #18-03) is $13,200 and would be paid directly to the City of Riverbank by the Sheriff’s Office.

Our Traffic Safety fund is currently $42,400 and has sufficient funding to purchase the new motorcycle.

RIVERBANK CITY COUNCIL / LOCAL REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
AGENDA ITEM NO. 9.7
SECTION 9: CONSENT CALENDAR
Meeting Date: September 10, 2024
Subject: Resolution Approving the Addition of the Capital Project/Regulatory Compliance Manager Position and Salary Range to the City’s Compensation Plan and Removing the
Development Services Administration Manager Position
From: Marisela H. Garcia, City Manager

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council consider adopting a resolution authorizing the addition of the Capital Project/Regulatory Compliance Manager position and salary range to the City’s Compensation Plan.

SUMMARY
Over the course of the past several years, the City Manager and Human Resources Division have been working on updates to the City’s job descriptions and salary ranges for certain key positions. In this case, an evaluation of the current Development Services Administration Manager job description was performed, and it is recommended that based on changes to the job duties a new Title and Job Description is recommended.

Approval of this item will remove the Development Services Administration Manager position from the Compensation Plan and be replaced by the Capital Project/Regulatory Compliance Manager position.

BACKGROUND
In June 2014 the City Manager implemented a reorganization of the Development Services Department which encompassed the following three divisions:
• Building & Planning
• Public Works
• Development Services Administration
To achieve cost savings due to continuing changes in the economy, the City Manager proposed the elimination of a Department Director (Development Services Director)

Item 9.7– CC/LRA 09/10/2024
position, and instead created three Manager positions to oversee each of the divisions:

Division Manager
Planning & Building Planning & Building Manager
Development Services Administration Development Services Admin. Manager Public Works Public Works Superintendent
Each of these three Manager positions did not previously exist in the City’s Compensation Plan, therefore new job descriptions and salary ranges were established for each. Two employees were promoted to new positions, while a new position was created and advertised for as the job was being performed by contract employees at that time:

Current Position Proposed Position
Contract Planning Staff Planning & Building Manager (New) Sr. Management Analyst Development Services Admin. Manager Deputy Director of Development ServicesOperations Public Works Superintendent The approval of this reorganization resulted in a promotion for Kathleen Cleek, who was a Sr. Management Analyst and was promoted to the Development Services Administration Manager. Responsibilities included the oversight of the project management staff, construction inspections, and engineering staff. The position was tasked with overseeing all capital projects (local, state, and federal), including those associated with new development, as well as being our liaison for regional transportation projects (i.e. North County Corridor) and ensuring regulatory compliance with new state and federal mandates (Storm Water & Solid Waste/Recycling).

Unfortunately, at the time of the creation of the job description the City Manager and Human Resources Manager at the time did not create a description that was detailed or inclusive of all of the new duties. Over the past 10 years this position has continued to grow and continued to incorporate increased oversight, particularly in the realm of regulatory compliance. This led to a need to review and revise the existing job description to ensure that we captured all of the essential duties of the position. As such, a new title was warranted as it was compared to similar positions in other jurisdictions such as Modesto, Patterson, and Oakdale. This also allowed for the compensation to be adequately reviewed and established for our organization.

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council consider the following title change:

Current Position Proposed Position
Development Services Admin. Manager Capital Project/Regulatory Compliance Manager
Based on the proposed title change the salary range is being proposed as follows to remain competitive with similar jurisdictions:

Item 9.7– CC/LRA 09/10/2024

A B C D E
Current
Range 166
$8,680.97 $9,115.02 $9,570.77 $10,049.31 $10,551.78
Proposed
Range 179
$9,879.72 $10,373.71 $10,892.39 $11,437.01 $12,008.86
Difference $1,198.75 $1,258.69 $1,321.62 $1,387.70 $1,457.08 The change in classification and salary adjustment would result in the current Manager receiving an increase in salary going from Step E of the 166 Salary Range to Step E of the 179 Salary Range. The current employee has been performing these job duties for an extended period of time therefore the salary change recommendation to Step E is recommended. This adjustment will be retroactive to the first full pay period of July.

STRATEGIC PLAN
This item is directly related to the City Council’s Strategic Plan goal to “Encourage Employee Development”.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The salary range adjustment is being requested to be retroactive to the first full pay period of the 2024-2025 Fiscal Year. Kathleen Cleek’s salary & benefits are currently paid via the General Fund (50%), Water Fund (25%), and Sewer Fund (25%). The annual increase to salary & benefits as a result of this proposal is $24,700.

RIVERBANK CITY COUNCIL / LOCAL REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
AGENDA ITEM NO. 9.8
SECTION 9: CONSENT CALENDAR
Meeting Date: September 10, 2024
Subject: Resolution Authorizing the Purchase of One (1) Acre of Land Located on APN 074-014-016 for the Construction of Well #13 for $410,000 and Allocating Funds from the Water System
Development Fee (Fund 206) for said Purchase
From: Marisela H. Garcia, City Manager

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council consider adopting a Resolution authorizing the purchase of one (1) acre of land of existing parcel 074-014-016 for the future construction of Well #13 for $410,000 and allocating funds from the Water System Development Fee Fund 206 for said purchase.

SUMMARY
On August 27, 2024 the City Council provided staff direction to initiate negotiations for the purchase of this property in order to construct Well #13 as required by the Crossroads West Specific Plan. Tonight’s action formalizes that approval and allows the allocation of funds from the Water System Development Fee Fund.

BACKGROUND
On March 19, 2019 the City Council approved the adoption of Resolution 2019-015 which approved the Crossroads West Specific Plan (the “CWSP”). The CWSP “provides the implementation mechanisms and development standards by which Crossroads West will be built. The purpose of the CWSP is to create a comprehensively planned community that provides a balance of land uses, infrastructure and services to adequately serve and support the development.” Chapter 7 of the CWSP provides an overview of the infrastructure requirements of the development, including the necessary improvements to our Water System to allow for the expansion of services into the new development.

One such requirement is the construction of a new water well to serve the new development. This new well will be Well #13 within the City.

Item 9.8 - CC/LRA 09/10/2024
The timing of the development of Well #13 was set forth in the Development Agreement between the City and The Machado Parties and Harrigfeld Parties approved on November 12, 2019. The timeline was set as follows:

1. City to complete test well by issuance of 50th permit

2. Developer to convey land to City for well site by issuance of 70th permit

3. City to complete new water well design by issuance of 170th permit

4. City to construct new water well by issuance of 250th permit On July 25, 2023 the City Council approved the award of the bid for the Well #13 – Test Well to Eaton Drilling Co., LLC. This work consisted of the drilling of a new borehole, application of drilling fluids, installation of well casings and intermediate seals, and construction of a well pedestal. The work was completed and accepted by the City on June 25, 2024. This test well confirmed that the site is adequate for the construction of a new well.

PROPERTY PURCHASE DETAILS
With the completion of the test well, the City is prepared to move forward with the acquisition of the site. One acre of land is required in order to provide adequate space for all of the components associated with Well #13. The site identified is currently part of Parcel 074-014-016. As part of the acquisition, a legal description will be prepared and recorded so that the site will have its own individual parcel number.

Item 9.8 - CC/LRA 09/10/2024

STRATEGIC PLAN
This item is related to the City Council’s Strategic Plan Goal to “Promote Sustainable Development.”

FINANCIAL IMPACT

The proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment is a staff-initiated proposal to modify the Riverbank Municipal Code (RMC) to be consistent with new State law related to massage therapy. Specifically, the amendments include:
• Amend Chapter 119, Massage/Bodywork Establishments to add Section 119.04 Certification Required and Section 119.05 Business License Required. • Amend Section 119.02 Definitions to add and remove definition terms. • Amend Section 119.09 Application for Massage Practitioner/Employee to require CAMTC certification and remove exemption.
• Remove Section 119.10 Application, Health Certificate. • Amend Section §119.14 Massage Establishments, Generally. • Amend Section §119.18 Exemptions.

This item received its first hearing at the August 27, 2024 meeting.

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
On March 13, 2006, the City Council passed an Ordinance (Ordinance No. 2006-003) amending the RMC to add Chapter 119, regulating massage and bodywork establishments. The intent of this chapter was to establish minimum standards for

Item 9.9 – CC/LRA 09/10/2024
massage and bodywork practitioners and their business establishments so as to protect and safeguard the public health, safety, and welfare. These amendments to the City’s Municipal Code were enacted to comply with the State legislation in effect at that time, as set forth in Government Code Sections 65852.2 and 65852.2.

On March 10, 2008, the City Council passed an Ordinance (Ordinance No. 2008-004) amending Chapter 119 of the RMC. This amendment included:
• Expanding the Legislative Purpose.
• Adding additional definitions for certified transcripts, operator, manager, employee, city manager, city council, police chief, and police department. • Adding Section §119.04 Fees, Section §119.05 Application for operator permit, Section §119.06 Operator permit issuance and denial, Section §119.19 Attorney’s fees and costs, and Section §119.24 Severability.
• Expanding massage practitioner permit application requirements by adding an itemized list of application materials.
• Expanding Section §119.13 Massage Establishment, Generally by adding regulations for facilities and operations.

In 2015, the Massage Therapy Act went into effect. The purpose of the Massage Therapy Act is to establish the California Massage Therapy Council to provide for consistent statewide certification and oversight of massage professionals, give broad control over regulating massage establishments to local governments to manage establishments in the best interest of the individual communities, and encourage local governments to establish a registration program that grants local governments the ability to either suspend or revoke a registration of massage business for specific violations, among other things.

The key components of the proposed Ordinance Amendment include:
• Add definitions for California Massage Therapy Council (CAMTC), CAMTC Certificate, Certified Massage Practitioner, Compensation, Massage, Massage Therapy Act, Reflexology, and removing the definitions for Bona Fide Nonprofit Club, Qualified Massage Educational Program, and Recognized School of Massage.
• Amend Section §119.03 Permit Required to add additional permitting requirements for massage establishments. All applicants will be required to have a valid CAMTC certificate, city business license, and a permit issued by the Police Chief. • Add regulations on CAMTC certification. Applicants applying to operate a massage establishment will be required to provide proof of CAMTC certification. Section §119.04 Certification Required has been added to regulate CAMTC certification. • Add provisions for business licenses. Applicants applying for a business license to operate a massage establishment will be required to provide proof of CAMTC certification to receive a business license. Massage establishments cannot be operated without a business license. Section §119.05 Business License Required has been added to regulate business licenses for Massage and Bodywork Establishments.

Item 9.9 – CC/LRA 09/10/2024
• Section §119.10 Application, Health Certificate has been removed to comply with Government Code section 51034 (c)(8). CAMTC certificate holders cannot be required to provide a certificate from a licensed physician. • Amend Section §119.09 (9) to clearly define the requirement of the CAMTC certificate and remove subsections (a) and (b). All applicants will be required to present a valid CAMTC certificate, and no exemption will be allowed for applicants possessing education related to massage therapy, anatomy, or physiology completed outside the State of California.
• Amend Section §119.14 (A)(10) to provide an exemption to massage establishments that are owned by one individual with one or no employees or independent contractors regarding external door regulations. • Amend Section §119.18 (D) to expand and clarify requirements for a reflexology exemption. All applicants seeking this exemption must provide evidence of the required items to the Chief of Police.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The proposed Ordinance Amendment is exempt according to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Article 5 §15061(b)(3) by the “Common Sense Exemption” that CEQA applies only to projects that have a potential for causing a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

The proposed amendments do not change the zoning designation on any individual property and does not affect existing land use. The purpose of the amendment is to amend the Municipal Code to be consistent with recent State law as it relates to massage therapy and does not propose any specific development of a project.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
None.
2005-2025 GENERAL PLAN
The proposed Code Amendments comply with the following General Plan Policies:

Policy ED-2.1 The City will support efforts to increase the capacity and skill sets of the local labor force and help develop occupational skills that meet the needs of local and prospective

CITY OF RIVERBANK
ORDINANCE 2024-XXX

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RIVERBANK,

CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE RIVERBANK MUNICIPAL CODE BY AMENDING SECTION §119.01 THROUGH §119.23 RELATED TO MASSAGE/BODYWORK

ESTABLISHMENTS
WHEREAS, the proposed amendments to the Riverbank Municipal Code would amend Sections of Title XI: Business Regulation, Chapter 119: Massage/Bodywork Establishments; and
WHEREAS, the amendment is exempt according to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Article 5 §15061(b)(3) by the “Common Sense Exemption” that CEQA applies only to projects that have a potential for causing a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment;

NOW, THEREFORE THE CITY OF RIVERBANK CITY COUNCIL DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1: Title XI: Business Regulation, Chapter 119: Massage/Bodywork Establishments shall be amended as follows (removed language is represented in strikethrough and added language is represented in underline text):

GENERAL PROVISIONS
§ 119.01 LEGISLATIVE PURPOSE.
(A) It is the purpose and intent of this chapter to provide for the orderly regulation of the massage/bodywork businesses and massage practitioners in the city and to comply with state regulations.
(1) The city recognizes massage is a viable professional field offering the public health and therapeutic services, including but not limited to, massage and bodywork therapies. The permit requirements and restrictions imposed by this chapter are reasonably necessary to protect the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the city.

ATTACHMENT 1

CC/LRA – 08/27/2024 & 9/10/2024
CC Ordinance 2024-
(2) This chapter establishes minimum standards for massage and bodywork practitioners and their business establishments so as to protect and safeguard the public health, safety and welfare.
(3) The city is authorized, by virtue of the California Constitution and Cal.

Gov't Code §§ 51030 et seq., to regulate massage establishments by imposing reasonable standards relative to the skill and experience of massage operators and massage practitioners and reasonable conditions on the operation of massage establishments.
(B) It is the purpose and intent of the city that massage/bodywork establishments and persons offering such services be regulated so as to ensure that such persons possess the minimum qualifications necessary to operate such businesses and to perform the services offered, and to ensure that those offering these services conduct their work in a lawful and professional manner, and comply with required building, sanitation, and health standards.
(C) There is significant risk of injury to massage clients by improperly trained and/or educated massage practitioners and this chapter provides reasonable safeguards against injury and economic loss.
(D) There is opportunity for acts of prostitution and other unlawful sexual activity to occur in massage establishments. Courts have long recognized that massage is a pervasively regulated activity and brothels might attempt to operate as massage establishments. The establishment of reasonable standards for issuance of permits and restrictions on operations would serve to reduce the risk of illegal activity without significantly burdening legitimate businesses.
(E) The restrictions and requirements contained in this chapter reduce the burdens on the Police Department and permit the deployment of police personnel such that more serious crimes may be prevented and more important laws enforced. (F) The regulations and restrictions contained in this chapter tend to discourage massage establishments from degenerating into houses of prostitution and the means utilized in this chapter bear a reasonable and rational relationship to the goals sought to be achieved.

Item 11.1– CC/LRA 09/10/2024

RIVERBANK CITY COUNCIL / LOCAL REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
AGENDA ITEM NO. 11.1
SECTION 11: NEW BUSINESS
Meeting Date: September 10, 2024
Subject: Resolution Approving an Agreement with Epic I/O for the Addition of Three (3) Camera Site Locations within the City of Riverbank Security Camera and LPR (License Plate Reader) System and Authorize the Relocation of an Existing Camera Site From: Marisela H. Garcia, City Manager
Submitted by: Ed Ridenour, Police Chief

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council consider approving a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an Agreement with Epic I/O, formerly known as IntelliSite LLC, to add three (3) additional locations within the City, relocate an existing camera site, and to authorize Modesto Executive Electric to add power to two proposed locations.

Alternatively, the Council could provide feedback and direction on the proposed sites or request staff to research other options.

SUMMARY
In 2019 the City Council approved the initiation of a License Plate Reader and Security Camera pilot program within the City of Riverbank. At that time the Council had long desired new and innovative methods to ensure the safety of our community using technology. The Council approved a camera lease subscription agreement with IntelliSite which allows the City to have a comprehensive camera system throughout most major entrances and exits in the community as well as other locations that have struggled with nuisance and crime-related issues. To ensure the most current equipment as well as adequate technical support/maintenance the City Council chose a lease versus purchase option. In addition, this option considerably reduced the City’s upfront cost. The Council directed that the cost for the ongoing subscription/lease of the cameras be paid for out of the Public Benefit Fund (Cannabis Revenues).

At the time the program was initiated it represented one of the first comprehensive municipally operated camera systems in our local geographic area. From the perspective

Item 11.1– CC/LRA 09/10/2024
of Staff and our Police Services Department, the pilot program has been a resounding success. Riverbank Police Services uses the system daily to perform investigations on crimes, identify stolen vehicles, aid the community in public safety matters, and review footage of car accidents where needed. The system has also acted as an excellent deterrent in some of our areas/parks that have traditionally experienced high levels of criminal activity.

Organized retail theft has grown across the state and the City of Riverbank has not been immune. Staff within Riverbank Police Services routinely utilize the city-wide camera network to aid their investigations to combat organized retail theft and many other investigations. We currently have 18 sites around the city with a total of 54 cameras.

As the city has expanded, we have identified three (3) additional site locations to bolster our city-wide coverage. We would like to add cameras and license plate readers (LPR’s) to the intersections of Oakdale Rd/Freddi Lane, Claribel/Machado Parkway, and Squire Wells Rd near Heartland Dr. These three locations would strengthen our coverage of the City perimeter to the West, incorporate coverage of Crossroads West and would close holes in our current coverage of the existing Crossroads Shopping Center.

For the proposed site at Oakdale Rd and Freddi Ln, our recommendation is to add four (4) cameras. These cameras would provide an intersection overview and license plate readers (LPR’s) to northbound traffic on Oakdale Rd, and eastbound and westbound traffic into the Crossroad’s Shopping Centers.

For the proposed site at Claribel Rd and Machado Parkway, our recommendation is to add four (4) cameras. These cameras would provide an intersection overview, and license plate readers (LPR’s) to westbound traffic on Claribel, eastbound traffic on Claribel, and northbound traffic into the Crossroad’s Shopping Center.

For the proposed site at Squire Wells near Heartland, our recommendation is to add two (2) cameras. These cameras would provide an overview camera to the north covering the intersection and roundabout at Squire Wells and Heartland, and a license plate reader (LPR) to northbound traffic on Squire Wells.

Lastly, we would like to relocate one of our existing sites to another location that will provide better overall city-wide coverage. We believe the site at Oakdale Rd and Westgate would be better suited at Oakdale Rd and Morrill Rd. This unit already has two cameras including an intersection overview and LPR. Morrill Rd at Oakdale Rd is seeing an increased amount of traffic as people look for alternate ways to come and go from the city.

All the proposed new locations have the constant power needed to support these additions except the site at Oakdale Rd and Freddi Ln and Oakdale Rd at Morrill Rd. We have received a quote from Modesto Executive Electric to add constant power at that location.

Item 11.1– CC/LRA 09/10/2024
Given the success of the program and the quality service received by Epic I/O, staff feels comfortable recommending approval given the amount of utility the system gives our law enforcement personnel.

STRATEGIC PLAN
This item is directly related to the City Council’s Strategic Plan Goal to “Improve Public Safety.”
FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The current cost for the camera lease subscription agreement is approximately $131,000 annually. Our contract with Epic I/O ends August 31, 2028, and these new site additions, if approved, would co-term with the existing contract.

The cost to add all three sites through Epic I/O would have a one-time installation cost of $9,900 and a recurring cost of $45,660 a year or $3,805 a month.

The one-time cost to have Epic I/O relocate the site Oakdale Rd and Westgate to Oakdale Rd at Morrill Rd is $1,700.

We received quotes through Modesto Executive Electric to add constant power to the new site. The cost for the site at Oakdale Rd and Fredd Ln is $3,250 and the cost to add constant power at Oakdale Rd and Morrill Rd is $2,250.

The total combined Project Cost would have a one-time installation cost of $17,100 and an additional recurring cost of $45,660 a year or $3,805 a month through the end of our current contract with Epic I/O that is set to expire on August 31, 2028. Please note, Epic I/O quotes do not include taxes and that all hardware is taxable, software & services are not.

The current funding source for our city-wide camera system is the public benefit fund.

This fund does not have sufficient revenue to support additional projects. These additional camera sites would be funded from the General Fund.

2023-2024 STANISLAUS HOME CONSORTIUM & STANISLAUS URBAN COUNTY

CONSOLIDATED ANNUAL PERFORMANCE AND EVALUATION REPORT

INTRODUCTION
The 2023-2024 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) constitutes the fourth reporting period (the Fiscal Year covering July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024) of the Five-Year Consolidated Planning period. Stanislaus County, in partnership with the cities of: Ceres, Hughson, Newman, Oakdale, Patterson, Riverbank, and Waterford form the Stanislaus Urban County (hereafter “Urban County”) for purposes of receiving U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) program funds. The Stanislaus Urban County, in partnership with the City of Turlock for the Stanislaus HOME Consortium for purposes of receiving HUD HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) funding Stanislaus County serves as lead entity for both the Stanislaus HOME Consortium and the Urban County.

HUD requires the Stanislaus HOME Consortium and Urban County to prepare and adopt a five-year Consolidated Plan (Con Plan) and Annual Action Plans to inform HUD on how the allocated grant funds will be used. At the end of each fiscal year, HUD requires this annual CAPER to report the progress made in accomplishing the goals set forth in the Con Plan, also referred to as a Strategic Plan, and Annual Action Plan (AAP). As a recipient of Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) funding in prior fiscal years, the Urban County reports on NSP program income funds still programmed for use. The projects and activities outlined within this CAPER were administered and overseen by the County’s Department of Planning and Community Development.

In Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the Stanislaus HOME Consortium and Urban County continued focusing on effectively administering and implementing CDBG, ESG, HOME, and NSP programs. HUD funded infrastructure projects continued with a mixture of preliminary design, engineering, environmental assessments, and construction activities. Non-profits were awarded CDBG and ESG funding for delivery of public services and emergency shelter operations continued to provide needed services to the communities most vulnerable populations.

The annual HUD Entitlement program funding allocated to the Stanislaus Urban County in Fiscal Year 2023-2024 were:

CDBG $2,335,030
ESG $ 208,317
Total: $2,543,347
DRAFT CAPER 6
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
The annual HUD Entitlement program funding allocated to the Stanislaus HOME Consortium in Fiscal Year 2023-2024 was:

HOME $1,708,364
Fiscal Year 2023-2024 was the first year of the Stanislaus HOME Consortium, the County utilized the year to establish the foundation for identifying projects and expend funding in accordance with HUD requirements. Staff’s efforts included working with the City of Turlock to coordinate the programming of unallocated City of Turlock/Stanislaus Urban County HOME Consortium funds (both the annual allocation and program income) held by the City of Turlock and bringing on a consultant to assist the County with program administration of the new Consortium.

In addition to the funding listed above, the CAPER also reports on the use of HUD CDBG and ESG Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act funding awarded to the Stanislaus Urban County in Fiscal Years 2019-2020 and 2020-2021. The CARES Act identified additional funding for the CDBG and ESG programs to prevent, prepare for, and respond to the community impacts of the COVID19 pandemic.

HUD’s distribution plan for CDBG and ESG CARES Act funding included multiple rounds: an initial round (CV1) that would allow for quick access to funding necessary to address the immediate crisis resulting from the pandemic and rounds two and three, CV2 and CV3, that would support post-pandemic community recovery. Below are the amounts that the Stanislaus Urban County was awarded for round one CDBG (CV1) and ESG (CV1), round two ESG (CV2), and round three CDBG (CV3) funding:

CDBG Round One (CV1) Allocation: $1,358,994
CDBG Round Three (CV3) Allocation: $1,432,755
Total $2,791,749
ESG Round One (CV1) Allocation: $ 683,103 (Original Award $698,717) ESG Round Two (CV2) Allocation: $3,292,823 (Original Award $3,891,785) Total $3,975,926 (Original Award $4,590,502)*
*$614,576 in ESG CV funding was recaptured by HUD on March 16, 2022 – see discussion in Board Agenda Item 6.1 on September 12, 2023. Board Resolution 2023-0469 CDBG, ESG, NSP, and HOME funds are designed to primarily serve the low-income community as defined by the Area Median Income (AMI) limits per program for Stanislaus County as determined by HUD. Funds are used by the Stanislaus HOME Consortium and Urban County to meet the following goals of the Con Plan:

1. Increase and improve supply of affordable housing

2. Work to end and prevent homelessness

3. Improve infrastructure and public facilities

4. Provide public services

5. Community emergency responses

6. Administration
DRAFT CAPER 7
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
In Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the Stanislaus HOME Consortium and Urban County continued to collaborate with the Stanislaus Community System of Care (CSOC), the local federally recognized Continuum of Care (CoC), on homeless services and programs. A CoC is an integrated system of care that guides and tracks homeless individuals and households through a comprehensive array of housing and services designed to prevent and end homelessness. Services supported with ESG funding are brought to the local CoC for feedback and to ensure coordination with countywide efforts to address homelessness.

The County’s Department of Planning and Community Development has also served as the Administrative Entity for the local CoC for state ESG (CA-ESG) since 2017. The department works with the CoC to identify service needs and allocates the CA-ESG funding through its annual grant application process that is later described in the CAPER. On average the local CoC area receives approximately $280,000 annually in CAESG funding.

This CAPER is presented in the template format generated by HUD which includes a series of questions and answers in relation to specific program funding received by the Stanislaus HOME Consortium and Urban County. The information provided in the CAPER is limited to the specific questions that HUD requires of Stanislaus County as the lead entity and does not address any other federal or state funding received by the members of the Stanislaus HOME Consortium and Urban County. The CAPER is submitted through HUD’s Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS) which limits the length of responses to each question.

CR-05 – GOALS AND OUTCOMES

PROGRESS THE JURISDICTION HAS MADE IN CARRYING OUT ITS STRATEGIC PLAN AND ITS ACTION PLAN. 91.520(A)
This could be an overview that includes major initiatives and highlights that were proposed and executed throughout the program year.

The priorities identified in the Con Plan are public infrastructure, economic development, affordable housing, public services, and community emergency response to COVID-19. In many neighborhoods and communities throughout the planning area, public infrastructure (sewer, curb, gutter, sidewalk, storm drainage, etc.) is minimal or non-existent, causing this to be a high priority need. All of the Stanislaus Urban County members utilize CDBG funds for infrastructure improvement projects in an effort to improve the quality of life for residents in and around the project areas.

Through the CDBG Public Services Grant (PSG) (CDBG-PSG) program, the Urban County set aside approximately 10% of its annual CDBG allocation for programs that provide services to low to moderateincome households (families or individuals). In Fiscal Year 2023-2024, a total of $233,503 in funding was awarded to nine public service programs to carry-out a number of needed services that included assistance to the homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless. Approximately 3,111 individuals received some form of service, CDBG PSG funded programs ranging from meals and shelter for lowincome households to emergency food assistance.

Throughout Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the Urban County and the local CoC worked together on strengthening efforts to address and collaborate on homeless issues. Those efforts included working with the CoC and other entitlement jurisdictions to:

• Oversee and monitor programs for federal compliance
• Support the Coordinated Entry System (CES)
• Support the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) • Update local CES policies and procedures
In Fiscal Year 2020 CDBG CV1 and ESG CV1 were awarded and in 2021 CDBG CV3 and ESG CV2, the second round of CARES funding, were awarded through a competitive grant application process. A total of 12 programs provided by eight service providers were funded CDBG CV funding and four activities by four service providers were funded ESG CV funds, including one shelter rehabilitation project. A total of 377 individuals were assisted with annual ESG funds and a total of 20 additional shelter beds were constructed with ESG CV funds. The outcomes for these CARES funded programs are included in the Fiscal Year 2023- 2024 CAPER.

ASSESS HOW THE JURISDICTION’S USE OF FUNDS, PARTICULARLY CDBG, ADDRESSES THE

PRIORITIES AND SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES IDENTIFIED IN THE PLAN, GIVING SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE HIGHEST PRIORITY ACTIVITIES IDENTIFIED.

The Con Plan identifies public infrastructure and facility improvements, affordable housing, community and economic development, public services, homeless services, and community emergency response as the high priority needs. Consistent with these priorities, the following activities were undertaken this past fiscal year:
• Each Urban County member continued with the design, engineering, and construction of various public infrastructure projects contributing to the improvement of neighborhoods. • Continued to fund public service programs through a competitive grant process to assist nonprofits that aid low- and moderate-income persons in need of services (i.e., food, shelter, and youth services).
• Continued to oversee awarded grants, to non-profits, that were offered through a competitive process to assist the community to prepare, prevent, and protect its residents, service providers, and businesses from the impact of COVID-19.
• A consultant contract for technical assistance in establishing program policies and procedures and development of a Request for Proposals (RFP) for housing development projects and services was executed and efforts are underway in establishing the program’s administrative foundation.

The following service provider’s expenditures and outcomes are reflected in the CAPER:

NARRATIVE
The Urban County identifies priority needs and offers services and programs to eligible individuals and households regardless of race and ethnicity. Tables 2 and 2 A above reflect the CDBG-PSG and the ESG programs for Fiscal Year 2023-2024 and is generated by the HUD CAPER template and the information reported reflects demographic information provided by participants and recorded in the HUD Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS) reporting system.

Through CDBG-PSG funds there were several non-profits that addressed the needs of special populations in the Urban County. Of the total 3,111 individuals assisted, approximately 802 individuals with disabilities were assisted with emergency food, shelter, and/or utility assistance. Among the total assisted individuals, there were also 669 female head of households, 109 were veterans, 1,111 were seniors, 305 were domestic violence victims, and 996 were homeless. Of those assisted four were provided with homeless prevention services, 705 were provided case management, and 2,826 were provided emergency food assistance.

Through ESG funds there were several non-profits that assisted homeless persons and families, both the chronically homeless populations and temporarily homeless households, make a transition to permanent housing and independent living. While enrolled in these programs, case managers worked with each household to set goals and work on a housing action plan in order to identify and connect with any needed services such as: Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), food stamps, Veteran’s benefits, future employment opportunities, etc. Throughout the fiscal year, ESG homeless prevention and rapid rehousing funds placed four homeless individuals into permanent housing with all four being stably housed by the end of the fiscal year. The ESG funded programs assisted a total of 377 individuals throughout the fiscal year.

ESG funds were also used to provide emergency shelter to homeless individuals and households. Clients that showed progress and motivation toward self-sufficiency receive extended case management in conjunction with rapid re-housing assistance funds to assist in the placement of job and permanent housing.

NARRATIVE
CDBG funding is allocated among all the Urban County’s members based on a population and poverty formula, along with an equitable amount of funding for administration. Stanislaus County, as lead entity, receives a greater percentage of funding for administration. Each member sets their own priority for public infrastructure projects. In many neighborhoods and communities within the Urban County’s planning area, public infrastructure is minimal or non-existent, causing this to be a high priority need. Infrastructure such as sewer, water, curb, gutter, sidewalk, and storm drainage are typical development standards in newer neighborhoods but are non-existent or antiquated in older neighborhoods. The Urban County members each use the majority of their annual CDBG entitlement funds for infrastructure improvement-related projects. CDBG-PSG and ESG funding, annual entitlement and CARES Act awards, are made available for use throughout the entire Urban County planning area. CDBG annual entitlement funding is also used to fund fair housing services throughout the Urban County.

DRAFT CAPER 15
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
HOME funding is allocated among all the Stanislaus HOME Consortium members based on a population and poverty formula for activities, All members are given the opportunity to propose projects using their HOME allocation, with a requirement that funding for the project(s) must be encumbered for use within six months of the beginning of each fiscal year. Unencumbered funds will be utilized by the County, as lead entity, in delivery of eligible housing programs and projects. Programs and projects will be developed through the release of request for proposal (RFP) for housing rehabilitation services, down payment assistant services, and general affordable housing projects for the entire Stanislaus HOME Consortium.

Stanislaus County will retain an ongoing list of projects, developed from RFPs (to be released to developers, realtors, and with others interested in participating in affordable housing development) seeking funding for projects. The project list will be prioritized based on community need, project feasibility (i.e., funding, entitlements, design stage, etc.), and time frame for full implementation.

LEVERAGING
Explain how federal funds leveraged additional resources (private, state and local funds), including a description of how matching requirements were satisfied, as well as how any publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that were used to address the needs identified in the plan.

LEVERAGING RESOURCES
In Fiscal Year 2023-2024, CDBG and ESG activities leveraged $5,539,532 and $1,459,484 respectively to support service delivery. The sources of leveraged funding included: private donations, other local funding, program income, and in-kind donations. Match was not required of the CARES Act CDBG and ESG funded service providers during the fiscal year, however, awarded agencies were still required to report the amounts were still provided to County staff.

Under the NSP program, the Urban County was provided funding to mitigate the negative effects of high foreclosure rates. The program design took foreclosed and vacant homes that were deteriorating due to neglect, and in turn rehabilitated the homes utilizing local workers and material suppliers. The homes were then resold to qualified first time homebuyers and the sales proceeds were retained by the Urban County as Program Income (PI); along with the future repayment of first-time down payment assistance provided by the NSP program. NSP PI is available for housing development activities, including the Abandoned and Dangerous Buildings program.

Collectively, the leveraging of resources assists the Urban County in addressing its affordable housing and infrastructure needs; and to provide services to the most vulnerable of our community. [ Space below intentionally left blank. ]

Excess match carried over to next Federal fiscal year (Line 3 minus Line 4) $0

MATCHING
Under the annual entitlement ESG program (federal and state), 50% of the costs related to the projects are reimbursed and the remainder of the costs paid by non-ESG match funding sources (i.e., local unrestricted donations). In this manner, the subrecipient in turn commits their dollar-to-dollar match by paying the remainder of the expenses from non-ESG sources. County staff reviews quarterly ESG statistical tables, narratives, HMIS activity reports, request for funds forms, and budget printouts that identify the total funds used/requested by each grantee during that reporting period. County staff verifies and cross-references the information with IDIS on the quarterly budget activity reports. Monitoring visits are also scheduled quarterly by County staff for each grantee to ensure appropriate expenditure of funds.

As part of the ESG monitoring process invoices and accompanying receipts are reviewed for reimbursement eligibility.

The HOME Program requires that a contribution or match of no less than 25 cents for each dollar of HOME funds be spent on affordable housing. HOME housing development projects selected through an RFP process will be subject to meeting the match requirement.

DISCUSS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GOALS AND OUTCOMES AND PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED IN MEETING THESE GOALS.

As the first year of the Stanislaus HOME Consortium, efforts were focused on establishing the program foundation which included contracting with a housing services provider to assist with preparing policies and procedures and a Request for Proposals (RFP) for housing development projects and services. Efforts included collaborating with the City of Turlock to develop a joint Request for Proposals (RFP) for housing development and services that recognizes funding from the prior HOME Consortium that are still administered by the City of Turlock. The RFP will be released in Fiscal Year 2024-2025 and will include the HOME allocations for 2023 and 2024.

DISCUSS HOW THESE OUTCOMES WILL IMPACT FUTURE ANNUAL ACTION PLANS.

The Stanislaus HOME Consortium will continue to coordinate at a regional level with the Stanislaus Regional Housing Authority (SRHA), non-profit housing developers, the CSOC (and participating agencies with housing funds), and other entitlement jurisdictions (City of Modesto) to address affordable housing issues as well as homeless prevention strategies. New sources of funding for the planning and development of affordable housing have been made available at the state level and several planning efforts are underway throughout Stanislaus County to accelerate affordable and market-rate housing in Stanislaus County; however, while the new source of funding will aid the efforts to address affordable housing needs, the high cost of developing affordable housing will remain a challenge in getting actual units developed in the volume needed.

New state funding, however, is becoming increasingly dependent on the state certification of jurisdictions (cities and counties) General Plan Housing Elements. During Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the members of the Stanislaus HOME Consortium and Urban County undertook a variety of activities associated with contracting with housing element consultants, preparing, circulating, and seeking state certification of their respective housing elements. In November 2023, Stanislaus County released the Housing Stanislaus report, an Initiative undertaken by the County in collaboration with the nine cities within Stanislaus County and held a Housing Summit focus to highlight the barriers and solutions to increasing housing development throughout Stanislaus County. The Summit included presentations by state and industry leaders in the areas of housing trusts and missing middle housing.

DRAFT CAPER 18
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
With respect to HUD funding, there are simply not enough funds available from the yearly CDBG and HOME allocation or remaining NSP PI to make any significant impact on the Stanislaus HOME Consortium’s affordable housing need. The Urban County will continue to use its annual CDBG allocation to: improve the public infrastructure needed to preserve existing affordable housing and support new affordable housing, and to provide fair housing services to assist with tenant/landlord issues.

EVALUATE THE JURISDICTION’S PROGRESS IN MEETING ITS SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES FOR REDUCING AND ENDING HOMELESSNESS THROUGH:

Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs.

Throughout Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the Urban County utilized CDBG PSG and ESG funding to implement outreach strategies to assist in addressing the homeless population. The Urban County awarded grants to non-profit homeless service providers to provide: homeless prevention, case management, food, shelter, and rapid re-housing. All grantees are required to actively participate in the CSOC in an effort to enhance the coordinated outreach and engagement efforts to the homeless population. The Urban County continues to be actively involved is involved in the development and planning of the local CSOC's outreach and engagement efforts to identify needs and gaps in services for the homeless. The CSOC has developed a system for coordinated intake, assessment, and referral that fully complies with federal CoC requirements.

In Fiscal Year 2023-2024, ESG funding was provided to non-profit service providers to assist with Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) data entry. During the fiscal year, a total of 373 individuals were sheltered and four individuals obtained housing through ESG funded programs. All Stanislaus Urban County ESG funded non-profits maintain client information in the HMIS system and track the progress of the clients while in the programs. Once out of the programs, progress is difficult to track due to lack of funding to pay for the cost of follow-up.

In addition to federal ESG funding, the County’s has also served as the Administrative Entity for the local Continuum of Care (CoC) for California Emergency Solutions Grants (CA-ESG) funding since 2017. CA-ESG funding administered in Fiscal Year 2023-2024 included the annual allocation and the continued expenditure of CA-ESG CARES Act funding used throughout Stanislaus County.

Activities undertaken in Fiscal Year 2023-2024 utilizing CA-ESG CARES Act funding included the final quarter (July 1, 2023 through September 30, 2023) of emergency shelter and street outreach activities, including a youth low barrier shelter with a navigation center that coordinates the needs of homeless and emancipated youth.

The following two programs were funded with CA-ESG CARES Act funding and provided services throughout Stanislaus County:
• Stanislaus County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (BHRS) Community Program. Through a subcontract with Turning Point Community Program (TPCP), BHRS provided a comprehensive whole person approach program to assist individuals to access shelter in collaboration with the County’s Access Center and Emergency Shelter (ACES) and other community homeless outreach partners. The program provides the following services for the homeless: rehabilitation support, case management, psychiatric medication outreach support services, employment and housing assistance, substance use linkage, intervention and supports, and other services and support critical to an individual’s ability to access shelter placement. A total of 748 homeless individuals were assisted during the fiscal year.

DRAFT CAPER 20
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
• Stanislaus County Probation Department’s Community Assessment Response and Engagement (CARE) Team. The CARE Team facilitates the identification, assessment, and linkage of homeless clients to housing and supportive services. In addition, case managers broker access to services and community supports and ensure that each client is tracked throughout the entire engagement process for continuity of care. The program consists of an Outreach Coordinator, three case managers and a licensed nurse.

The case manager positions are filled by three Behavioral Health Specialists. The specialists link homeless clients to community resources and provide case management services. Their duties include linking homeless clients to a primary care physician to facilitate medical appointments and transportation to COVID-19 vaccination sites. They follow up with clients to ensure they receive up to two doses and booster vaccines, if eligible. In addition, they link clients to mental health services and medical services. They also provide support and advocacy for homeless clients, while ensuring they address their level of needs.

The nurse position is filled by a Public Health Nurse. The nurse provides COVID-19 vaccines to homeless individuals in the community, assists with educating the homeless population regarding COVID-19 transmission and prevention. The nurse also conducts rapid COVID-19 tests in the community and assists with contact tracing regarding homeless individuals. A total of 2,161 homeless individuals were assisted during the fiscal year.

The members of the Stanislaus HOME Consortium and Urban County, through its participation in the CSOC, continues to be engaged in homeless discharge coordination from health care facilities through the Stanislaus County Hospital and Shelter Partners (SCHSP) meetings. Since April 2019, the Hospital Council of Northern California has coordinated SCHSP monthly meetings with representatives from local hospitals, homeless shelters, public agencies, and stakeholder groups to plan for the discharge of homeless individuals from health care facilities to comply with SB 1152. The objective has been to create a community standard of care and greater connection and cooperation between discharging and receiving providers of services for the homeless.

Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons.

Throughout Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the Urban County provided CDBG-PSG and ESG grant funding to various emergency shelters and housing service providers to address emergency shelter needs of homeless persons and households. A number of the emergency shelter clients subsequently received rapid re-housing assistance and became stably housed.

The Stanislaus HOME Consortium and Urban County have been working in collaboration with the local CoC, currently recognized as the CSOC, for over 23 years to improve services for the homeless and those at risk of homelessness. This collaborative is comprised of the Stanislaus Regional Housing Authority (SRHA), the City of Turlock, the City of Modesto, various County’s Departments (Behavioral Health and Recovery Services [BHRS], Community Services Agency [CSA], and Planning & Community Development), shelter providers, housing and housing counseling services providers, faith-based organizations, and over a dozen housing and supportive service providers.

The HMIS sub-committee of the CSOC, has continued to work diligently throughout the fiscal year to improve the data quality of the current HMIS system. Through ESG funding from the Urban County, Community Housing and Shelter Services(CHSS) has entered non-HUD funded homeless service providers DRAFT CAPER 21
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
client information into the HMIS system. This data allows the CSOC’s homeless data collection to be a much more valuable tool for tracking individuals patterns into and out of homelessness. Improving data quality will allow funding to be prioritized based on trends of homeless populations within Stanislaus County.

The County was able to provide support through ESG CV funds to two shelter facilities, three shelter programs, and the rehabilitation of a shelter facility (We Care Program, Turlock) to provide an additional 20 beds, completed in Fiscal Year 2023-2024. In addition to adding beds, the We Care Program shelter project, also included rehabilitating the dining hall to provide overflow beds during excessive heat and cold weather and to allow the shelter to expand its services as a day navigation center.

In total, CA-ESG CV funds were used during the fiscal year to support operations and services to 11 shelter facilities.

While not funded by the Urban County, the following are some of the facilities available, and efforts undertaken, during the fiscal year to address the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons countywide:

Access Center Emergency Shelter (ACES)
The Access Center Emergency Shelter (ACES), located in the City of Modesto, is a 182 bed, lowbarrier, shelter focused on providing shelter to the most vulnerable unsheltered population by decreasing common barriers to individuals accepting shelter service, such as, pets, partners, and possessions. ACES opened November 26, 2019 and operated by the Salvation Army through an agreement approved by the Board of Supervisors on October 1, 2019. Included in the bed count is a 22-bed dorm area available for those individuals experiencing homelessness that suffer from a significant mental illness. This dorm-style room reduces instances of victimization and increases the efficacy of therapeutic intervention. The County’s Community Assessment Response and Engagement (CARE) Team is also able to use the location to provide case management and shelter to the most vulnerable unsheltered individuals. ACES has also afforded an opportunity for the most vulnerable unsheltered population to be sheltered and connected with case management services, with a strong emphasis on assisting shelter guests to become document ready for entry into the community’s coordinated entry housing continuum. Additionally, Stanislaus County Animal Services Agency partnered with ACES to create a healthy pets program. This program provides pet food, crates, and animal health services to pets residing at ACES. A total of 641 homeless individuals were provided shelter services this fiscal year.

Empire Cold Weather Family Shelter
The Empire Cold Weather Family Shelter, located in the community of Empire, was initiated by the County’s Community Services Agency (CSA) in November 2018 as a partnership with the SRHA.

The target population served are families who are currently being case managed in CSA Housing Support Program (HSP) unit, have used all available temporary shelter nights, are still engaged in the search for permanent housing and have been unsheltered the longest based on date of referral to the HSP program.

CSA works in partnership with Community Housing and Shelter Services (CHSS) for placement of families at the Empire Cold Weather Family Shelter and has an existing contract with CHSS to DRAFT CAPER 22
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
administer, arrange and facilitate temporary housing services to CalWORKs and Welfare-to-Work eligible families. CHSS also provides case management services, which include assisting and educating participants on their income, household budgets, and housing options; aiding participants in completion of housing applications and landlord outreach; and providing housing search workshops.

The Empire Migrant center consists of 90 dwelling units used for farmworker housing from April to October each year. This project allows CSA to use 22 units during the months of November through March. In Fiscal Year 2023-2024 20 families and 77 individuals were served with case management services. Of the families served, 81% received permanent housing.

Family Housing Facility (FHF)
In November 2019, CSA began leasing a motel, located in Modesto area, to operate a year-round family shelter using the model implemented at the Empire Cold Weather Family Shelter. The property has 23 units and a three-room office space.

CSA works in partnership with CHSS for placement at FHF. CHSS services include primary case management oversight which include: assisting participants with household budget, understanding their income, housing options, completing housing application, landlord outreach and housing search workshops, working with families to remove barriers to self-sufficiency, and connecting families to applicable and relevant community resources.

In Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the FHF program, running at full capacity, served 42 families receiving case management services and employment services/employment connections.

Access Center
On February 3, 2020, the Access Center, a “hub location” for multiple homeless programs and the entry way into the shelter system, opened in the City of Modesto. The Access Center serves as a one-stop hub and physical entry point for individuals at-risk of or currently experiencing homelessness to access a wide range of co-located homelessness services including centralized homeless outreach and engagement; housing assessments and navigation; and homelessness support services and referrals. The Access Center also employs a “meet you where you are” strategy that has specialized homeless outreach workers meet individuals on the street and in homeless encampment areas and encourages individuals to connect to services.

The following partners are co-located at the Access Center: Center for Human Services; Community Housing and Shelter Services; Community Impact Central Valley; Disability Resource Agency for Independent Living; Downtown Streets Team Modesto; Golden Valley Health Centers; Salvation Army - Modesto; Stanislaus County (Behavioral Health and Recovery Services and Community Services Agency); Telecare Corporation; and Turning Point Community Programs.

Homeless Strategic Plan
The Stanislaus Homeless Alliance (SHA) and CSOC have collaborated to update the Plan to Address Homelessness in Stanislaus County, originally prepared in January 2019. In September 2020, the SHA and the CSOC each appointed three members to serve on a work group to spearhead the DRAFT CAPER 23
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
effort. The updated plan, now referred to as the Homeless Strategic Plan, was approved by the CSOC on July 14, 2021 and aims to address the needs of people experiencing homelessness by enhancing community decision-making, supporting organizational and provider capacity, and improving systems coordination. A joint committee made up of members from the CSOC and the SHA has been formed to continue the examination of the plan and begin implementation of the goals outlined in the plan.

The facilities and efforts identified above are ongoing and form a critical piece of the homeless support foundation in Stanislaus County. The Stanislaus Urban County will continue to align its funding strategy with the broader efforts of the CSOC by supporting the service and shelter providers in their efforts to address the emergency shelter and transitional needs of homeless persons.

Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely lowincome individuals and families and those who are: likely to become homeless after being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs.

Throughout Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the Stanislaus Urban County continued to actively participate in the CSOC to ensure CDBG PSG and ESG funding aligned with countywide efforts to help low-income individuals and families to avoid becoming homeless. CSOC efforts include improving the program planning for homeless funding utilization throughout Stanislaus County and working with private hospitals to encourage the incorporation of rental assistance and case management into discharge planning. CSOC representatives actively collaborate with the County Sheriff’s Office and the Probation Department to identify services available for recently discharged parolees to help prevent homelessness among that population. Non-profits awarded CDBG PSG and ESG funding are required to participate in the CSOC as part of the effort to ensure alignment with the broader community efforts to address homelessness and to allow for education opportunities on new community programs that can add value to existing programs.

Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again.

The Urban County partnered with CHSS, CHS, and the We Care Program to help homeless individuals and families make a transition to permanent housing and independent living. With the use of ESG grant funds, both the chronically homeless populations and temporarily homeless households were provided the opportunity to be placed into permanent housing. While enrolled in these programs, case managers work with each household to set goals and work on a housing action plan in order to identify and connect with any needed services, such as: Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Food Stamps, Veteran’s Benefits, future employment opportunities, etc. Throughout Fiscal Year 2023-2024, ESG shelter, homeless prevention, and rapid re-housing funds placed 37 homeless individualsinto permanent housing.

At the end of the fiscal year, four of those individuals were stably housed.

DRAFT CAPER 24
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
Center for Human Services and the We Care Program utilized ESG funds to provide emergency shelter to homeless individuals. Clients that showed progress toward self-sufficiency received extended case management in conjunction with rapid re-housing assistance funds to assist in the placement of job and permanent housing placement.

CR-30 - PUBLIC HOUSING 91.220(H); 91.320(J)
ACTIONS TAKEN TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF PUBLIC HOUSING.

In California, public housing is administered directly through local Public Housing Authorities (PHAs). The Stanislaus Regional Housing Authority (SRHA) is the largest property manager of multi-family and single household public housing units for the lower income population of Stanislaus County. The SRHA also serves as the administrator of the Housing Authority of the City of Riverbank. The SRHA is committed to providing decent affordable housing to its residents and, in doing so, the SRHA keeps public housing units in favorable conditions so that its residents have a safe and healthy living environment. According to the SRHA 2023 PHA Plan, the SRHA currently operates a combined total of 5,576 units (647 public housing units and 4,929 housing choice vouchers) as the SRHA and a combined total of 90 units (all public housing units) as the Housing Authority of the City of Riverbank. The Housing Authority of the City of Riverbank operates 60 units for seniors and 30 family units for low-income households.

Of 4,929 vouchers in Stanislaus County, 212 vouchers are specifically for homeless veterans (Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing [VASH] vouchers), 270 vouchers are specifically for reunifying families that are facing homelessness or living in substandard housing with children removed from the home, 380 are project-based vouchers, and 11 are project-based vouchers for a senior complex in the City of Patterson.

The SRHA and the Stanislaus HOME Consortium have a strong relationship and continue to work together towards furthering decent, safe, and affordable housing throughout the community.

ACTIONS TAKEN TO ENCOURAGE PUBLIC HOUSING RESIDENTS TO BECOME MORE INVOLVED IN MANAGEMENT AND PARTICIPATE IN HOMEOWNERSHIP.

The Stanislaus Regional Housing Authority (SRHA) has a Resident Advisory Board (RAB) which is comprised of Public Housing Authority (PHA) and Voucher program participants. Any time there are substantial policy changes (such as prioritization of the wait list, program termination changes, or areas where there is flexibility in establishing program guidelines), this board must be notified and given an opportunity to respond by either supporting and/or rejecting policy changes. The RAB’s determination then goes to the Housing Authority Board of Commissioners (BOC) for consideration of whether to support or reject. In addition, the SRHA is required to have program participants sit on their BOC per regulations.

ACTIONS TAKEN TO PROVIDE ASSISTANCE TO TROUBLED PHAS.

There are no PHA’s operating within the Stanislaus HOME Consortium area that are troubled and/or that have requested assistance.

ACTIONS TAKEN TO REMOVE OR AMELIORATE THE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF PUBLIC POLICIES

THAT SERVE AS BARRIERS TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING SUCH AS LAND USE CONTROLS, TAX

POLICIES AFFECTING LAND, ZONING ORDINANCES, BUILDING CODES, FEES AND CHARGES, GROWTH LIMITATIONS, AND POLICIES AFFECTING THE RETURN ON RESIDENTIAL INVESTMENT.

91.220 (J); 91.320 (I)
The Con Plan identifies the following public policies as having the potential to negatively affect affordable housing and residential investment: shortage of affordable housing funding, climate change, environmental protection, growth management, planning and development fees, and prevailing wages.

To address the potential negative effects of these policies, the members of the Stanislaus HOME Consortium strived to consistently review all potential barriers to affordable housing that are within their authority to address (local development standards and development review procedures); to continue to pursue and utilize available funding for mortgage assistance and housing rehabilitation; and to continue to work with, and partner with, housing developers, from the nonprofit and for-profit sectors, to promote the development of affordable housing and special-needs housing.

In Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the members of the Stanislaus HOME Consortium continued to take steps to program various state funding sources aimed at increasing the production of housing. Funding sources include the SB 2 Planning Grant and Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA); and Local Early Action Planning (LEAP). Efforts undertaken with these funding sources included: a countywide initiative to build a shared vision and policy framework for housing in Stanislaus County (Housing Stanislaus), development of Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) templates, various housing related ordinance amendments (including ADU ordinances for compliance with state law), and the development and implementation of the state required 6th Cycle Housing Elements. Other HOME Consortium efforts aimed at increasing housing production include the construction of public sewer infrastructure, review of ADU development fees, and the continuation of owner-occupied housing rehabilitation programs which help to maintaining existing affordable housing stock.

PLHA is an ongoing state funding source that is based on the Stanislaus Urban County’s 2017 CDBG entitlement allocation. As such, the funding is targeted for use in the unincorporated areas of Stanislaus County along with cities of: Ceres, Hughson, Newman, Oakdale, Patterson, and Waterford. The City of Riverbank joined the Stanislaus Urban County in Fiscal Year 2020-2021 and, as such, is eligible for PLHA funding directly from the state. The City of Turlock, although a member of the HOME Consortium also receives its own PLHA allocation from the state. The Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors adopted fiveyear plan for PLHA funding provides for the: acquisition/development of permanent supportive housing, development/preservation of ADUs, fiscal incentives, and multi-family rental housing.

ACTIONS TAKEN TO ADDRESS OBSTACLES TO MEETING UNDERSERVED NEEDS. 91.220(K);

91.320(J)
The Urban County continuously tries to identify underserved needs through community and program engagement. CDBG Public Service Grant (PSG) and ESG grants are reviewed and scored based on defined criteria that emphasize: collaboration, prevention focused services, and innovative methods to providing public services. The grant review panel for both CDBG PSG and ESG funding is comprised of one representative from each for Urban County members and a representative from the CoC to ensure needs DRAFT CAPER 26
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
being addressed are reflective of the entire Urban County area and align with efforts being taken by other agencies throughout Stanislaus County.

For Fiscal Year 2023-2024, a total of $233,502 in CDBG-PSG funds were allocated based on a competitive grant process to which public service providers had the opportunity to apply for grants up to $25,000. A total of nine grants were awarded to non-profits to provide services such as: food assistance, emergency shelter, counseling, utility assistance, and tutoring to underserved areas and individuals. CDBG funding in the amount of $25,000 for fair housing services was awarded to Project Sentinel. Over 3,111 individuals received assistance through the CDBG-PSG funded service providers throughout Fiscal Year 2023-2024.

For Fiscal Year 2023-2024, a total of $192,694 in ESG funds were allocated based a competitive grant process. A total of 45% of the grants awarded went towards emergency shelter programs, 40% went toward homeless prevention and rapid re-housing program, 7.5% went towards funding data entry for the Homeless Management and Information System (HMIS), and the remaining 7.5% went to Stanislaus County for the administration of the ESG program. Over 377 homeless persons, or persons at-risk of becoming homeless, were assisted with overnight shelter, emergency food, and housing stability assistance throughout Fiscal Year 2023-2024.

In addition to the allocation of Fiscal Year 2023-2024 CDBG and ESG entitlement funding, the remaining Fiscal Year 2022-2023 ESG entitlement funding contracts along with CDBG CV, and ESG CV contracted funding were used to provide a variety of services aimed at meeting the needs of the underserved. Section CR-15 – Resources and Investments states the amounts expended by all funding sources.

ACTIONS TAKEN TO REDUCE LEAD-BASED PAINT HAZARDS. 91.220(K); 91.320(J) The Health Services Agency (HSA) of Stanislaus County is the lead agency for the identification, documentation, and prevention of lead poising in Stanislaus County. HSA works with referrals from schools and other agencies to test for lead-based paint hazards. During Fiscal Year 2023-2024, approximately 12 homes were tested and three (3) were found to have contamination. If a housing unit is found to have lead-based paint, the abatement process and consequences of living in a home that is contaminated, is explained to the residents. The Urban County members provide lead-based paint information to all residents that participate in the down payment assistance and/or housing rehabilitation programs. If, during a housing rehabilitation, a housing unit is found to have any lead-based paint issues, information on the dangers of lead-based paint is provided to the property owner and lead abatement is conducted as part of the rehabilitation work. Every effort is made to provide a safe and healthy housing opportunity for clients participating in Stanislaus Urban County funded housing assistance programs.

During Fiscal Year 2023-2024, no activities necessitating the need to test for lead-based paint were undertaken.

ACTIONS TAKEN TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF POVERTY-LEVEL FAMILIES. 91.220(K); 91.320(J) To reduce the number of persons living under the poverty level, the Urban County has continued its partnership with other local entitlement jurisdictions, agencies, and the CSOC to provide services and resources to families in need. As well as providing a portion of CDBG and ESG funding, through a competitive process, to eligible non-profits that have a proven track record of assisting the homeless on their path towards employment and permanent housing.

DRAFT CAPER 27
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
During Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the Urban County allocated a total of $233,502 in CDBG-PSG funds and $192,694 in ESG funds to non-profits for various programs aimed at assisting individuals and families experiencing homelessness or at risk of experiencing homelessness; and to assist low- and moderateincome individuals and families achieve self-sufficiency.

ACTIONS TAKEN TO DEVELOP INSTITUTIONAL STRUCTURE. 91.220(K); 91.320(J) The strategies identified in the Con Plan for overcoming gaps in the institutional structure and service delivery system for carrying out a strategy to address priority needs is to: 1) continue to work collaboratively with service and shelter providers to identify and address gaps in the service delivery system; and 2) continue to invest time and resources to strengthen the entire CoC system and not one particular agency or organization.

During the Stanislaus Urban County’s CDBG PSG and ESG program monitoring, agency-to-agency referrals are reviewed to verify that participants receiving services do not experience gaps in services as they strive to reach their goal of independence from the need of public services.

The CoC, locally recognized as the Stanislaus Community System of Care (CSOC), is a dedicated network of service providers, consumers, and government agencies that work collaboratively to identify where gaps exist and how they can be best addressed. The CSOC continues working to improve coordination among service providers and to further enhance the Coordinated Entry System (CES). The main goal of the CES is to assist service providers with tracking and responding to the needs of individuals that seek services. To date, only a limited number of service providers utilize the HMIS coordinated entry system component to track clients and report program accomplishments.

Building the capacity of non-profits continues to be an important issue for the Urban County and other entitlement jurisdictions (the cities of Modesto and Turlock). The Urban County has partnered with both the cities of Modesto and Turlock to provide technical assistance and trainings to local service providers in the areas of client screening, HMIS data collection, and basic case management requirements.

ACTIONS TAKEN TO ENHANCE COORDINATION BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE HOUSING AND SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES. 91.220(K); 91.320(J)
The Stanislaus HOME Consortium recognizes it cannot work alone in achieving the goals outlined in the Con Plan. Therefore, the Stanislaus HOME Consortium participates with and coordinates with the following collaboratives and public housing agency in order to better serve and coordinate the needs of the community:

Turlock Community Collaborative
This collaborative was formed to deal with homeless issues facing the Turlock community. The group is comprised of concerned community members, faith-based groups, and government agencies working together to deal with issues concerning the homeless and the community.

Stanislaus Community System of Care (CSOC)
The CSOC, the locally recognized CoC, is a collaborative comprised of local government agencies, shelter providers, housing and housing counseling services providers, faith-based organizations, and over a dozen DRAFT CAPER 28
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
housing and supportive service providers. The Stanislaus County’s Community Services Agency (CSA), serving as the Collaborative Applicant (CA), assists the CSOC to coordinate with service providers, law enforcement, and community members to conduct the County’s annual Homeless Point in Time (PIT) Count. During Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the Stanislaus HOME Consortium continued to participate in efforts to improving the functionality of the CSOC’s HMIS, including the CES component, and to update the CES policies and procedures. Fiscal year efforts have also included working with the CSOC’s CA on the operations of the HMIS in order to meet HUD’s mandate that all ESG program participants are part of and actively entering pertinent universal data elements into the HMIS.

Stanislaus Regional Housing Authority (SRHA)
The SRHA and the Stanislaus HOME Consortium have a strong relationship and continue to work towards furthering decent, safe, and affordable housing throughout the County. The SRHA serves as the administrator for housing rehabilitation and Emergency Sewer Lateral Connection programs for HOME Consortium members. The SRHA also serves on several housing and community development related committees alongside HOME Consortium members.

IDENTIFY ACTIONS TAKEN TO OVERCOME THE EFFECTS OF ANY IMPEDIMENTS IDENTIFIED IN THE JURISDICTION’S ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE. 91.520(A) In Fiscal Year 2023-2024, Project Sentinel, as the Urban County’s fair housing service provider, responded to a total of 319 calls for landlord/tenant mediation and fair housing information within the Urban County area. A total 5 of fair housing cases and 17 tenant/landlord cases were handled by the agency during the fiscal year. Additionally, Project Sentinel fielded 211 fair housing information and service referral calls, benefiting 934 residents. In addition to fair housing services, HUD entitlement jurisdictions are asked to report on any fair housing investigations that may be conducted during the year in the CAPER. The U.S.

Department of Justice, through their Fair Housing Testing Program, contracts out with fair housing agencies to conduct testing separate from their service agreements with any jurisdiction. Project Sentinel conducted no fair housing tests within the Urban County in Fiscal Year 2023-2024.

Additional Actions Taken to Address Obstacles to Meeting Underserved Needs Some non-profits and community organizations may not be familiar with the HUD funding grant process and other funding resources that may be available to them. As a result, many organizations and nonprofits have not used HUD funds and other types of financial assistance. In Fiscal Year 2023-2024, the Urban County, working collaboratively with agencies familiar with HUD processes, continued to share program and funding information with service providers and grassroots organizations throughout the community to better meet the underserved needs of the community.

An annual Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) was announced for the release of CDBG and ESG funds for the Public Service Grant cycle. The NOFA included an announcement of a mandatory Grant Technical Workshop and a timeline for the grant cycle. The NOFA was advertised in the local newspaper, The Modesto Bee, in English and Spanish. An e-mail was sent out to all past and current grantees and applicants that had applied in the last five years. County staff also announced the NOFA at the local CSOC meeting, distributed a reminder, and e-mailed the local CSOC agencies a NOFA announcement. County staff coordinated with Stanislaus Urban County members to distribute the NOFA announcement to service providers working in their respective cities. It is with funds awarded through the NOFA process that the Stanislaus Urban County is able to provide much needed services to underserved communities.

DRAFT CAPER 29
OMB Control No: 2506-0117
The annual Grant Technical Workshop provides an opportunity for questions and answers. In addition to the workshop, County staff are available via phone, in person, and by e-mail to answer questions throughout the grant application process. Once grant awards are announced, the County also requires grantees to attend a Grantee Technical Workshop prior to receiving their agreements. In the workshop, the policies, procedures, program regulations, requirements, and obligations of the grant are explained.

All grantees receive the information covered in the workshop via email. During Fiscal Year 2023-2024, all workshops continued to be conducted online due to COVID-19 safety precautions and to allow for enhanced efficiencies in grantee attendance.

Technical assistance is ongoing to those agencies awarded funding and those agencies interested in competing for future funding. Reference, guidance, and support materials are provided upon request and staff is available to addressing inquiries in person, by phone/virtually, or via email. The Stanislaus Urban County is constantly looking for ways to expand service provider capacity and to encourage public and private partnerships and joint ventures between non-profit and for-profit housing developers.

Describe the standards and procedures used to monitor activities carried out in furtherance of the plan and used to ensure long-term compliance with requirements of the programs involved, including minority business outreach and the comprehensive planning requirements.

The County regularly monitors progress on activities to ensure compliance with program requirements for all non-profits awarded CDBG-PSG and ESG funds aimed at reducing and ending homelessness.

Funding and service agreements set clear performance measures, reporting procedures, timeliness, and budgets against which goals are measured. County staff regularly monitor compliance with contracting requirements and performance goals through the implementation and review of quarterly performance reports, reimbursement requests and desk and on-site monitoring. Due to ongoing COVID-19 precautions, on-site monitoring performed during the fiscal year remained limited and alternative methods, such as video conference calls in combination with desk audits, were utilized to verify and confirm that grant funds are and were used in an eligible and appropriate manner.

For non-profits awarded CDBG-PSG and ESG funds, County staff conducts an initial technical workshop to provide a comprehensive overview of the quarterly reporting, request for funds, and monitoring processes and requirements. County staff is available to awarded agencies during regular business hours to address technical concerns and questions as they arise. Non-profits that reach a certain performance threshold become eligible for bi-annual monitoring reviews in place of the quarterly reviews.

Under the ESG program, County staff reviews quarterly ESG statistical tables, narratives, HMIS activity reports, RFF forms and budget printouts, which identify the total funds used/requested by each grantee during that reporting period. ESG funded agencies are provided with ongoing HMIS system training. As part of the ESG monitoring process, only 50% of the costs related to the project are reimbursed, as the remainder of the costs is paid by non-ESG match funding sources (i.e., local unrestricted donations).

this manner, the subrecipient in turn ensures that dollar-to-dollar matching requirements are satisfied by paying the remainder of the expenses from non-ESG sources.

DEVELOPED IN CONSULTATION WITH THE COC(S)
The County regularly updates and utilizes a CDBG and ESG program Desk Guide for subrecipients.

This guide was developed and is updated in consultation with the local CoC. The Desk Guide covers both federal and state ESG funds administered by Stanislaus County. Under the CDBG and ESG program, County staff track the progress of individual subrecipients in fulfilling goals and objectives set forth in the Con Plan in order to ensure that programs remain on task. Tracked data is reviewed and entered into the IDIS system on a semiannual basis. If tracked data falls short of the goals and objectives set forth, appropriate adjustments will be made, and notification sent to the respective subrecipients to make them aware of milestones and timeliness needing to be met in order to ensure continued receipt of funding.

The coordinated monitoring process has been established to verify and confirm that grant funds have been used in an eligible and appropriate manner for each and every program funded with CDBG and ESG funds.

County staff reviews quarterly ESG statistical tables, narratives, HMIS activity reports, Request for Funds forms, and budget printouts, which identify the total funds used/requested by each subrecipient during that reporting period. County staff also verifies and cross-references the information on the quarterly budget activity reports. Monitoring visits are also scheduled quarterly by County staff for each grantee to ensure appropriate expenditure of funds. As part of the ESG monitoring process, invoices and accompanying receipts are reviewed for reimbursement eligibility. Once eligibility is confirmed, 50% of the costs related to the project are reimbursed, as the remainder of the costs are paid by a non-ESG match funding sources (i.e., local unrestricted donations). In this manner, the subrecipient in turn commits their dollar-to-dollar match by paying the remainder of the expenses from non-Federal sources.
