Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: Established under the authority of the Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1989 and City Code Chapters 3.96 through 3.112, the purpose of the BIA districts is to provide enhanced economic revitalization and physical maintenance services to specific business districts. The funding of these services and activities are provided by an assessment imposed on the individual businesses. The BIAs located in the City and included in this report are the Del Paso Boulevard BIA, the Downtown Plaza BIA, the Franklin Boulevard BIA, the Old Sacramento BIA, the Stockton Boulevard BIA, and the Sutter BIA.

Annually, each BIA is required to submit an Annual Report (Report) for Council approval as a prerequisite to Council levying the annual assessment. The BIA Advisory Boards, which are appointed by Council and generally made up of business owners within the BIA districts, have prepared the required Reports for FY2025/26, detailing the proposed assessments and expenditure budgets. The BIA Annual Amounts Schedule, included as Attachment 3 to this report, provides a summary of the proposed FY2025/26 assessments for each BIA. In addition, the Report for each BIA is attached as Exhibit A to the BIA’s respective resolution.

Staff recommends Council adoption of the six resolutions that will approve the associated Report, set the time and place for the public hearing on the proposed assessment, and authorize the City Clerk to publish the resolutions in the City’s official newspaper pursuant to Streets and Highways Code section 36534(b).

Policy Considerations: The recommended actions will establish the budget for assessment expenditures, ensuring that funds collected for each BIA via business-based assessments are used for the intended purpose, which is to promote the economic revitalization and physical maintenance of the BIAs in an effort to create jobs, attract new businesses, and prevent erosion of existing businesses.

Economic Impacts: None.

Environmental Considerations: Under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, the continuing administrative activities of BIAs and creation of government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities which do not involve any commitment to any specific project which may

result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment do not constitute a project and are therefore exempt from review [14 Cal. Code Regs. § 15378(b)(2), (b)(4)].

Sustainability: Not applicable.

Commission/Committee Action: None.

Rationale for Recommendation: The actions in the recommended resolutions are required by the Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1989 and Sacramento City Code chapters 3.96 - 3.112.

Financial Considerations: The proposed expenditures are supported by charges assessed against each business within the BIA. Pursuant to the applicable City Code section for each BIA describing the charges imposed, an automatic annual increase to BIA charges is authorized to account for inflation (except within the Sutter BIA). The automatic increase is based on the most current Consumer Price Index (CPI) - San Francisco All Urban Consumers data. The percentage increase in the CPI between February 2024 and February 2025 was

2.7%. Accordingly, charges for Del Paso Boulevard, Downtown Plaza, Franklin Boulevard, Old Sacramento, and Stockton Boulevard BIAs will increase by 2.7% effective July 1, 2025, as shown in the attached BIA Annual Amounts Schedule. The Sutter BIA charges do not increase annually because City Code chapter 3.106 does not provide an annual increase for inflation.

The Del Paso Boulevard, Franklin Boulevard, Stockton Boulevard, and Old Sacramento BIA charges cannot exceed more than 10% annually while the Downtown Plaza BIA charges cannot exceed more than 5% annually.

The City collects the BIA charges at the time the Business Operations Tax is paid. The charges are then forwarded to the respective BIA Advisory Board authorized by Council to conduct activities and services for the BIA. The proposed BIA expenditures are fully supported by charges assessed against each business, however collection costs are supported by the City.

Detailed budgets for services and programs are included in the Report submitted by each of the Advisory Boards.

Local Business Enterprise (LBE): Not applicable.

Fiscal Year 2025-2026

PROPOSED

IMPROVEMENTS & ACTIVITIES
Program Management & Operations
Administer the day-to-day operations of the Association including financial management, membership support and inquiries, Board of Director support and assistance. We currently have two full-time staff to respond to inquiries and business/property owners’ needs. This includes, but is not limited to: answering phone calls and emails, distributing information, creating marketing documents and materials, and providing support for our members. Furthermore, outreach needs to be consistent and a database will be implemented for further development of outreach, services and assistance. We will assess needs and reassess current operations on an ongoing basis to be effective in supporting the business environment and their needs. For example, empty parcels or vacant units are a priority to fill. Gaining access to this information is imperative to promoting the district and increasing vitality of the corridor.

Clean Up,& District Beautification
Provide sidewalk and street cleaning services; graffiti, shopping cart and trash removal; and landscape maintenance in the public right-of-way on Franklin Boulevard for all commercial properties in the Property-Based Business Improvement District adjacent to Franklin Boulevard between Sutterville Road and 47th Avenue. Additionally, we have included a budget for security services in the district to help curb business theft and vandalism, and to ensure the boulevard remains safe for community members and patrons of our local businesses.

District Identity
Improve Franklin Boulevard’s streetscape, vacant properties, code enforcement, business signage and other public infrastructure. Market and promote the business district by revamping the branding of our district via the Association’s website, social media, newsletters and cultural events such as our Annual Membership Meeting & Luncheon and National Night Out. Continue working with our public and private partners to develop large-scale and culturally relevant mural projects in the business district on Franklin Boulevard. Additionally, we continue to build stronger relationships with our neighborhoods, community partners and law enforcement to garner support via community events and other activities.

As we build on a stronger sense of community, our district continues to host annual events to bolster our cultural identity that include Mexican Independence Day and the Back to the Boulevard Car Cruise, La Posada, and National Night Out.
• August 5, 2025: National Night Out -- $2,000
• TBD (Due to Construction): Back to the Blvd: Car Cruise & Mexican Independence Day -- $5,000
• October 2025: Trunk-or-Treat -- $500
• December 2025: La Posada -- $ 500
• Branding & new banners -- $5,000
Current endeavors to provide marketing and technical assistance are offered through our partnership with the Sacramento Hispanic Chamber and our Emprende program. Our members are looking to gain more expertise but access to capital and/or language barriers are prevalent, hence the need to expand on these services in other languages besides English. We are regularly updating our social media and website pages to better promote the businesses in the district and to leverage partnerships to provide business workshops, technical assistance and access to capital. Moreover, we are looking for ways to retain and grow businesses in the district as well as attract new businesses that provide jobs to the surrounding community.

1 Sutter Business Improvement Area Annual Report
Overview: The Sutter Business Improvement Area (SBIA ), also known as Midtown Sutter , is an assessment district to provide specific benefits to payers managed by the Midtown Association.

The SBIA was adopted by the Sacramento City Council on January 29, 2008 and collections began the first fiscal year, July 1, 2008 – June 30, 2009. This is the annual report. The Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1989, California Streets and Highways Code Section 36500 et seq. (the Law), authorizes cities to establish business improvement areas for the purpose of providing improvements and activities that benefit those businesses.

Location: The SBIA includes all restaurant bu sinesses with an occupancy of 49 customers or more located within the portion of Midtown Sacramento bounded by 27th Street, 29th Street, J Street, and P Street, as shown on the map attached as Exhibit A.

Services: The types of improvements and activities to be funded by the levy of assessments against restaurant businesses within the SBIA are additional security, maintenance and marketing programs to promote Midtown Sutter as an attractive destination for dining and projects, programs, and activities that benefit restaurant businesses located and operating within the boundaries of the district. The proposed improvements and activities shall be targeted at increasing restaurant business revenues.

Budget: The total SBIA annual budget is projected as $249,000.00 and actual collections may vary slightly based upon the open ing and closing of establishments. The annual assessment rate is 1.5 percent of gross food sales revenue plus a fixed amount based on occupancy. Based on the benefit received, the assessment shall not be collected on: gross alcoholic beverage sales; gross catering or banquet sales; and gros s retail sales (such as coffee mugs, t -shirts, etc.). The fixed assessment amount (based on occu pancy) is in addition to the gross food sales assessment and is shown in the table below:

Occupancy Threshold Annual Occupancy
Assessment
49-89 customers $0
90-149 customers $996
150-200 customers $4,992
200+ $9,996
2 Governance: The Board of the Midtown Association has established a n SBIA ad visory committee made of assessed business owners. Membership inc ludes: Barwest, Blue Cue, Café Bernardo, Centro Cocina Mexicana, Harlow’s , Lock & Key Tapas + Bar, Octopus Baja, Paragary’s, Star Lounge, and T Bar & Fusion Café.

Programs & Financial Overview:

Lighting & Safety: The lighting and safety program focuses on safety services and amenities that make the SBIA businesses safer and more welcoming for visitors. Funds account for the addition of lighting along 28 th Street, as well as maintenance of existing lights, and private security for SBIA district events.

Placemaking, Arts, & Events: The placemaking, arts, and events program focuses on attracting patrons to assessed businesses by funding family/neighborhood friendly programming in public spaces such as parks, streets, and parking lots. The program focuses on arts and annual signature events that drive restaurant sales including the development of an outdoor entertainment space at Marshall Park . The program includes launching Second Saturday after programming that brings musicians and busking to public spaces the Sunday after. The progra m also includes marketing and advertising costs, such as district marketing advertising, social media boosting, hiring a public relations professional to promote the events and earn media coverage for each event, and for each event to attract no less than 500 attendees. These funds are not used to enhance events or promotions that take place exclusively inside businesses. Program costs can include special event insurance, street closure costs, entertainment fees, advertising, and placemaking projects such a s refreshing district branding, banners and public art installations adjacent to assessed businesses. Assessment funds are not used to rebate businesses for their specific marketing efforts or event planning costs.

Advocacy & Administration: In order to provide the lighting and safety and placemaking, arts, and events services, the Midtown Association incurs various administrative costs, such as staffing, rent, advocacy, insurance, legal, and accounting fees. Advocacy programs will utilize ded icated staff time to provide unified attention, communication, and responsiveness throughout the SBIA on regulations and policies affecting assessed restaurant businesses.

Collections/Contingency/Reserve: In order to ensure effective provision of services, a contingency will be established to account for uncollected assessments or unanticipated program costs. The reserve fund may be spent on programs described in this Plan in any proportion deemed appropriate by the Midtown Association. This catego ry includes the cost of City admin istrative fees, not to exceed $5 ,000 per year, for collection and disbursement of the assessment.

3 Specific Projects & Budget Overview:

Lighting and Safety projects include:
• Police costs for special events, including SPD staffing for events in the street or in the city parks, private security for events within private locations such as the B Street Theatre and State of CA Rangers for events at Sutter’s Fort state park.
