CITY OF SALINAS

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: March 8, 2022
DEPARTMENT: ADMINISTRATION
FROM: Patricia M. Barajas, City Clerk
Christopher A. Callihan, City Attorney
Lapkoff & Gobalet Demographers
TITLE: REDISTRICTING SALINAS PUBLIC HEARING #4
RECOMMENDED MOTION:

Approve a Resolution retaining the current district boundaries adopted in 2012 until after the next U.S. Census in 2030.

RECOMMENDATION:

Consider the 2020 Census population deviations, proposed draft map plans, receive public input, and provide direction to staff.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Every ten years upon the release of the decennial census data, the City of Salinas shall adjust the boundaries of any or all its six (6) City Council Districts based on the new census data and criteria set forth in state law and the City Charter. Pursuant to Salinas Charter Article 2, Section 2.4, the City Council must adjust the boundaries so that each district shall be nearly equal in population according to the latest federal decennial census. A new state law (the FAIR MAPS act) requires that the city hold at least four public hearings, even if the Council retains the current election districts.

Our demographers have determined that the official (California Statewide Database) counts show that our Council districts are still sufficiently equal in total population that they can be used until after the 2030 U.S. Census. Election district populations do not need to be exactly equal. Some leeway is permitted: a deviation of up to 10 percent from the ideal district population is permitted between the most and least populated council districts. In our case, the current plan’s deviation is

7.3 percent. Thus, there is no imperative to change council districts in order to balance the council district populations.

BACKGROUND:

Every 10 years, cities must redistrict (adjust Council District boundaries to equalize total populations) using the new Census counts and cities must adopt new boundaries before April 17, Page | 2
2022. Any new council districts will be used until Census 2030 data are released and incumbents will complete their terms of office even if they no longer live in the district they were elected to represent.

The City Council held its first public hearing on October 12, 2021, following receipt of updated population data from the 2020 Census. Council received information regarding the redistricting process, state law requirements and population data deviations. Council Districts’ 2020 populations need to be nearly equal and deal district population must be 1/6 of the city’s 2020 Census population. The City of Salinas = 164,232 total population; 1/6 of the total is 27,372, for an ideal district population. Plan deviation is the difference between the least and most populous districts, divided by the ideal district size, 10% deviation is permitted = 2,737 persons (27,372 x 10%). The City of Salinas has a 7.3 percent population deviation.

At its October 12, 2021 meeting, the City Council requested a reduction in District 5’s population and a more identifiable district southern boundary for Council consideration on January 11, 2022.

On January 11, 2022, the City Council held Public Hearing #2 and received a report and proposed Plan 1 and Plan 2 from Lapkoff & Gobalet Demographers, Inc.

Plan 1
Most of the southern boundary of District 5 is along Larkin Street with the railroad tracks boundary between District 3 and District 4 with a Plan deviation of 6.6%.

Plan 2
Requires more change to make boundaries easily recognizable and to keep neighborhoods/communities of interest intact to the extent possible. Additional differences include changes along East Alvin Drive from District 6 to District 4; District 1 to District 6 boundary along Boronda Road; District 4 to District 1 along N. Sanborn Road; and a population balance between District 2 and District 1 along Garner Avenue, Towt Street and Del Monte Avenue. Plan deviation of 6.0%. See attachment.

At its January 11, 2022, Councilmember expressed their desire to retain the current district boundaries as there is no significant change in population. City Council acknowledged the potential need to redistrict following the 2030 Census in anticipation of planned development of the Future Growth Area.

On February 1, 2022, the City Council conducted its third hearing to received public input. No further direction from City Council was given to staff.

At its March 8, 2022 meeting the City Council will need adopt a resolution a Resolution to retain the current district boundaries adopted in 2012 until after the next U.S. Census in 2030.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

Not a Project. The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).

Page | 3
STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

The redistricting process supports the City’s goals by continuing to address the quality of life of all residents and long-term community investment.

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

The City Clerk’s Office worked in coordination with City Attorney’s office and with direction from the demographers to ensure compliance with all local, state, and federal requirements.

Additionally, staff will work with the various city department to support public engagement and participation efforts.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

In February 2021 the City Council approved a professional services agreement with Lapkopff & Gobalet Demographers and appropriated $100,000 to cover the cost of a Redistricting Consultant and expenses thereof. No additional fiscal impacts have been identified at this time.

Census 2020 Redistricting Report
No Need to Adjust Council District Boundaries
February 28, 2022
California state law requires that after each U.S. Census, cities that elect Council members by District must investigate whether the total populations of the election districts are still almost equal based on the new Census counts. If not, the Council District boundaries need to be adjusted. This is called redistricting.

In this report, we document our assessment of whether the current Council District boundaries (adopted in 2012, using Census 2010 population counts) need to be adjusted. Our analysis shows that the City’s 2020 Council District populations are still sufficiently equal (within legal limits). Therefore, no boundary adjustments are required. This report documents our findings.

Current Council Districts
Salinas has six Council members and each member lives in and is elected by residents of their election district.

Map 1 shows the current boundaries. We converted the 2012 Council District boundaries into 2020 Census geography and calculated the total 2020 population of each District.

Evaluation of Population Equality
Current California law requires cities to use Census population data adjusted by the California Statewide Database (SWDB). The SWDB adjusted 2020 Census counts by reassigning prison inmates to their pre-incarceration home addresses.

Table 1 shows the total (adjusted) 2020 population of each Council District. A total of 164,232 people were counted as residents of the City. The “ideal population” of each District is one-sixth of the total population, or 27,372. If the actual counts deviate (differ) very much, redistricting is required.

The following paragraphs explain Table 1.
2 Table 1: Current Council Districts’ 2020 Total Populations

The populations of Council Districts do not need to be exactly equal; the presumptive guideline (based on Court decisions) is that a districting plan should not exceed “10 percent deviation,” which we explain by referring to Table 1. Table 1 shows each Council District’s total population, as well as its deviation, or difference, from the ideal District population. For example, District 1 had a 2020 population of 26,840, which is 532 persons less than the ideal.

This number represents a deviation of (minus) 1.9 percent from the ideal population (-532 divided by 27,372).

A plan’s total deviation can be calculated in two ways – by using the numerical differences or the percent differences in District populations from the ideal. Both approaches measure the difference between the least- and most-populous Districts’ total populations. (1) The difference between the least and most populous District must not exceed 10 percent of the ideal population. The ideal District population is 27,372, and a 10 percent deviation is 2,737. To be considered balanced, the difference between the least- and most-populated Council Districts must not exceed 2,737.

District 1 has the smallest 2020 total population (532 fewer people than ideal). District 5 has 1,462 more people than ideal. The difference in population between Districts 1 and 5 is 1,994, which is less than the allowable difference of 2,737.

The “plan deviation” is expressed as a percentage and is calculated by dividing the difference between the least and most populous Districts by the ideal population: 1,994 divided by 2,737, which is 7.3 percent.
(2) We also report percentage differences: we calculated each District’s percentage difference from the ideal District population. To arrive at the deviation, we compared the least- and most-populated Districts (Districts 1 and 5). Council District 1 has a percentage deviation of (minus) 1.9 percent. Council District 5 has a percentage 2011 District 2020 Population Deviation % Deviation
1 26,840 -532 -1.9%
2 27,079 -293 -1.1%
3 27,177 -195 -0.7%
4 26,955 -417 -1.5%

6 27,347 -25 -0.1%

Ideal Population 27,372
Using official redistricting data from California Statewide Database City of Salinas 2012 Plan - Population Balance
3 deviation of (plus) 5.3 percent. The sum of the absolute value of the percentage deviations is 7.3 percent.

Conclusion
Because the deviation of Salinas’ Council Districts is less than the permitted 10 percent maximum deviation, the City can continue to use the current boundaries (adopted in 2012) until after the next U.S. Census.

CITY OF SALINAS

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: MARCH 8, 2022
DEPARTMENT: FINANCE
FROM: MARK ROBERTS, DIRECTOR OF FINANCE
TITLE: FISCAL YEAR 2022 MID-YEAR BUDGET REVIEW &

SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION REQUESTS
RECOMMENDED MOTION:

A motion to accept the Fiscal Year 2022 mid-year budget report and approve budget adjustments to the City of Salinas’ Fiscal Year 2022 operating and capital budgets.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the City Council accept the Fiscal Year 2022 mid-year budget report and approve budget adjustments to the City of Salinas’ Fiscal Year 2022 operating and capital budgets.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This report provides the status of the Fiscal Year 2022 budgets for the City’s General Fund, Measure E (formerly Measure V) Fund, and Measure G Fund (collectively, lower case “general fund[s]”). In addition, the report recommends supplemental appropriations for various funds based upon staff analysis of actual fiscal-year-to-date expenditures and estimated expenditures through the end of the fiscal year. The recommended appropriation adjustments are summarized in the “Fiscal and Sustainability Impact” section of this report, and details are provided in Exhibit A to this report.

BACKGROUND:

The City’s Fiscal Year 2022 operating and capital budgets were adopted on June 8, 2021. As adopted, the combined general fund budget included a budgetary surplus of approximately $0.2 million. The estimated revenues and adopted appropriations and transfers for each of the general funds are shown in Table 1 below.

Page | 2
Table 1
Adopted Fiscal Year 2022 General Fund Budgets
DISCUSSION:

Revenues
Overall, Fiscal Year 2022 revenues through December 31st were strong. Table 2 below compares revenue totals for the general funds through the mid-point of the current fiscal year and previous fiscal year.

Table 2
General Fund 1 Revenues as of December 31st
Fiscal Year 2022 vs Fiscal Year 2021
Category FY 22 FY 21 Difference
Sales & Use Tax $12,552,000 $11,404,000 $1,148,000
Transactions & Use Taxes 2 16,822,000 14,422,000 2,400,000 Property Taxes 10,969,000 10,786,000 183,000
Property Tax in Lieu of VLF 7,416,000 7,181,000 235,000 Other Revenues 13,822,000 14,279,000 (457,000)
Total $61,581,000 $58,072,000 $3,509,000
1 Includes Measure E and Measure G Funds
2 Measures E and G tax revenues
The general funds’ primary sources of revenue are the sales & use tax, the district transactions & use tax, property taxes, and property tax in lieu of vehicle license fees. During the first six months of the current fiscal year, these revenues were approximately $47.8 million, $4.0 million ahead of last year, while general fund revenues as a whole totaled $61.6 million, approximately $3.5 million more than the same period last year. The most significant factor in the year-to-year difference is receipts from sales-related taxes, which, combined, were $3.5 million higher than those received for the same period of the prior fiscal year. While the adopted budget for these funding sources anticipated a significant negative impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, retail sales have turned out to be stronger than anticipated.

General Fund $105,119,000 ($5,463,000) ($5,810,000) $93,217,000 $629,000 Measure E Fund 14,230,000 (555,000) (507,000) 13,164,000 4,000 Measure G Fund 27,995,000 (5,188,000) (7,772,000) 15,506,000 (471,000) Total $147,344,000 ($11,206,000) ($14,089,000) $121,887,000 $162,000 Page | 3
“Other Revenues” comprises all other general fund revenues not specifically identified in the above table. These revenues were $0.5 million lower during the first half of the year compared to the first half of last year. As is to be expected, some of the accounts are ahead of last year’s amounts and some are behind, because of the nature of the funding source and variations that occur from year to year in the timing of receipts.

Expenditures
Expenditures through December 31st are behind last year’s pace overall. A comparison of fiscalyear-to-date general fund expenditures as of the mid-point of the current fiscal year and previous fiscal year are reflected in Table 3 below.

Table 3
General Fund 3 Expenditures by Category as of December 31st Fiscal Year 2022 vs Fiscal Year 2021
Category FY 22 FY 21 Difference
Salaries & Benefits $51,343,000 $49,095,000 $2,248,000
Maintenance & Operations 8,045,000 12,813,000 (4,768,000) Capital Outlays 340,000 241,000 99,000
Total $59,728,000 $62,149,000 ($2,421,000)
3 Includes Measure E and Measure G Funds
As of December 31, 2021, expenditures totaled $59.7 million, below those at the same point last year by $2.4 million, with higher personnel costs partially offsetting significantly lower expenses in the “Maintenance & Operations” category, which collectively refers to expenses for non-capital goods and services. The primary factors in the year-to-year differences in these categories were:
▪ maintenance & operations – a $4.5 million lump sum unfunded liability contribution to the City’s New York Life pension plan in Fiscal Year 2021 compared to $0 thus far for the current fiscal year. (These contribution amounts vary from year to year, sometimes sharply)
▪ personnel – higher salaries & benefits costs, primarily as the result of the filling of numerous positions which had been left vacant as a cost-savings measure during the previous fiscal year, due to the uncertainty of the fiscal impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

As the uncertainty has subsided, positions have been filled somewhat quickly, sharply increasing these costs.

Staff will continue to monitor all revenues and expenditures and will provide updates in the third quarter budget report and in conjunction with the Fiscal Year 2023 budget development process.

Page | 4
Transfers In/Out
While technically not revenues and expenditures (and, hence, not shown above), transfers in and out of the general funds contribute to fund balance increases and decreases, respectively.

Transfers to the CIP Fund at the fiscal year mid-point were $0.6 million higher this year than for the previous year, due to lower spending on capital projects primarily as the result of typical year-to-year variations in the timing of work and invoicing from contractors. “Other Transfers (Net),” which comprises all transfers in and out of the general funds, other than transfers to the CIP Fund, were $6.7 million higher than at the same point last year, largely due to a $7.6 million transfer for payment for the early redemption (call) of some of the 2018 Lease Revenue Bonds for the (City of Salinas) Public Safety Building Project.

Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Expenditures
The total Fiscal Year 2022 CIP budget is $102.9 million and includes $28.5 million budgeted as part of the Fiscal Year 2022 adopted budget, ($9.7 million) in adjustments through December 31st, and $84.1 million of projects in progress for which appropriations are carried forward year-to-year until completed. Year-to-date CIP expenditures totaled $10.8 million and encumbrances totaled $19.2 million at the mid-point of the year.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

The City of Salinas has determined the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

As monitoring the growth of revenues and expenditures, including determining when supplemental appropriations are necessary, is essential in ensuring awareness of the need to reduce expenditures and thereby eliminate the City’s structural budget deficit, this report and supplemental appropriation request schedule meets the Council goals of Investment Strategies / Risk Management and Operational Efficiencies

Pension Trust Update
No action required. This report presents information to the City Council regarding an update and status on the establishment of an Internal Revenue Code Section 115 irrevocable supplemental pension trust.

CITY OF SALINAS

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: MARCH 8, 2022
DEPARTMENT: DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
FROM: MARK ROBERTS, DIRECTOR OF FINANCE
TITLE: PENSION TRUST UPDATE
RECOMMENDED MOTION:

No action is required. This report is for informational purposes only.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This staff report provides an update and status on the establishment of an Internal Revenue Code Section 115 irrevocable supplemental pension trust (“Section 115 trust”) and an agreement with PFM Asset Management LLC (“PFM”) to provide administrative services for the trust.

BACKGROUND:

On March 20, 2018, the City Council approved a resolution authorizing an adoption agreement to establish a Section 115 trust and an agreement with PFM to provide administrative services for the trust. In addition, $3 million was allocated to a reserve for the initial funding of the trust. However, it was recently discovered the trust has not yet been established and funded and the agreement with PFM and other necessary documents have not been executed.

As noted in the staff report requesting Council’s approval of the trust and execution of the related documents, establishing a Section 115 Trust to accumulate funds to reduce the City’s unfunded pension liability and mitigate the impact of fluctuations in future pension costs is part of an overall strategy to stabilize the City’s structural deficit. Therefore, it is important to complete the work to do so.

Staff is reviewing the trust adoption agreement, PFM Agreement, and related documents, to determine whether they require updating. It is anticipated all necessary documents will be executed and the trust established and funded by March 31, 2022 with no further action by Council required.

Page | 2
CEQA CONSIDERATION:

The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

These agreements will achieve the strategic plan and Council goal of Effective, Sustainable Government.

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

Department of Finance staff is working in conjunction with the City Attorney’s Office to ensure all documents are up to date and require no substantive changes which would require Council approval.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

Although dependent upon the total of trust assets managed, staff has estimated the initial cost of trust administration services to be approximately $30,000 per year, which the City may elect to have deducted from the trust account. Investment returns of the trust are difficult to estimate; however, they are also dependent upon the balance of the trust’s assets, as well as the risk tolerance selected for the investment portfolio.

CITY OF SALINAS

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: MARCH 20, 2018
DEPARTMENT: FINANCE DEPARTMENT
FROM: MATT N. PRESSEY, CPA, FINANCE DIRECTOR
TITLE: 115 TRUST SERVICE AGREEMENTS
RECOMMENDED MOTION:

A motion to approve a Resolution for the Adoption Agreement and the Trust Administrative Services Agreement between PFM Assets Management LLC (“PFM”) and the City and authorize and designate staff to manage the trust.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends City Council approve a Resolution:

1. Approving the Adoption Agreement between the City and PFM Assets Management LLC (“PFM”)

2. Approving the Trust Administrative Services Agreement between PFM and City

3. Authorizing the City Manager, Finance Director and Assistant Finance Director as officers with the authority to execute the necessary documents and agreements to carry out the trust services on behalf of the City.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

As part of the strategy to stabilize the City’s structural deficit and stabilize future pension cost increases, a 115 Trust is being established to accumulate funds to be invested and used to offset the future pension costs. The 115 Trust allows the funds to be taken out at any time to reimburse the City for up to two years’ worth of pension costs, which makes the trust very liquid if the City needed the funds in an emergency. The 115 Trust is one of the six recommendations included in the League of California Cities Retirement System Sustainability Study.

BACKGROUND:

Staff prepared a Request for Qualifications and received four responses. A four member evaluation team reviewed and scored each submittal. The top two (PFM and PARS) were invited to a face-to-face interview with a three member interview evaluation panel. The evaluation panel ranked both firms and recommended PFM as the firm as the most-responsive and best qualified Page | 2
that would best serve the City’s needs. PFM has a Multi-Employer Trust established and has a contractual relationship with Wells Fargo Bank to provide trust and custody services for the trust.

Of the six recommendations made in the League of California Cities Retirement System Sustainability Study for what cities can do regarding the high cost increases in the annual PERS cost, the City has already started evaluating or implementing all of them. The two main recommendations were around the following:
 Lump sum payment(s) to Cal PERS
 Prefunding through an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Code Section 115 trust The City will be evaluating these two options and will most likely use a combination of both to achieve the short and long term objectives.

Lump Sum Payment to CalPERS
Any lump sum payment to CalPERS made by June 15 of any given year, will, with the proper notice to CalPERS, be credited to the City’s retirement plan accounts in time to favorably impact employer contribution rates beginning in the following fiscal year. Payments made after June 15 will impact rates on a delayed basis, beginning in the fiscal year starting after the following July 1st.

The immediate benefit of making a lump sum payment to CalPERS is the potential for interest savings at the current assumed investment rate of return of 7.35%, reflected in the form of reduced employer rates beginning as soon as the following fiscal year. The City can also target one of the Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL) basis’s, pay it down and achieve large short term savings in annual payments. The main potentially negative aspect to accelerated pension funding through CalPERS is the concentration risk associated with having the additional funds held directly by CalPERS, as opposed to possible diversification of funding through a Section 115 retirement trust.

Prefunding through a Section 115 trust
Although Section 115 trusts for retirement funding are in their relative infancy, Section 115 trusts have been in use for California local government funding of post-retirement health obligations, also known as OPEB, for roughly the past decade. The City has participated in the California Employers’ Retirement Benefit Trust (CERBT), sponsored by CalPERS, to prefund its OPEB obligations for the past ten years. CalPERS does not currently offer a Section 115 trust for retirement funding, but is likely to do so within the next couple of years.

The potential advantages of placing funds into a Section 115 Retirement trust include:
 Local control over assets – although the funds may only be used to pay pension obligations, the employer can access the account anytime
 Pension rate stabilization – assets may be transferred to CalPERS to reduce or eliminate fluctuations in PERS rates
Page | 3
 Rainy day fund – emergency source of funds if needed to be drawn down in large amounts to cover pension costs
 Potentially lower long-term pension costs if funded aggressively  Diversification of retirement funding assets, as opposed to CalPERS holding all of the City’s retirement funds
 The ability to earn higher returns in a relatively safe environment than would be possible with the government code limitations and investment policy restrictions on current City pooled investment portfolio
 The opportunity to transfer the City’s OPEB trust funds into one of these programs as a separate account, should the Council direct staff to do so at some point in the future The main disadvantages of participating in a Section 115 Retirement trust are that:

1. The net pension liability is not offset by the contributions placed in trust on the City’s financial statements

2. Market changes and lose of principal; and

3. Funds held in trust may only be utilized for pension obligations.

However, given that the City’s annual pension obligation is currently in excess of $18 million, the risk of not being able to access the funds at any time is minimal. At such time as trust assets significantly exceeded annual pension obligations, potential liquidity risk may be an issue, but that is not a likely occurrence in the near term.

Market timing is always a risk as well for the short term, but the City’s long-term pension funding objectives, a long-term view of investment performance would be in order, rather than attempting to “time the market.” Additionally, City staff would work with the selected firm to facilitate an orderly phased transition of assets into the new trust investment portfolio and not deposit the assets all at one time to help hedge against market risk.

Based on the significant increase in retirement costs over the next seven years, staff believes that the formulation of a systematic plan to accelerated pay down of City’s unfunded pension liabilities and a plan to stabilize the affordability of each year’s contribution would be prudent and timely.

A combination of accelerated UAL payments to CalPERS, along with the City’s participation and investment in a Section 115 Retirement trust, appears to be the best strategy to mitigate future retirement cost increases.

Staff will work with PFM on the best funding policy, plan and investment strategy and bring it back to City Council on April 17, 2018.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).

A RESOLUTION TO APPROVE THE ADOPTION AGREEMENT AND

THE TRUST ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT BETWEEN
PFM ASSETS MANAGEMENT LLC (“PFM”) AND THE CITY AND

AUTHORIZE AND DESIGNATE STAFF TO MANAGE THE TRUST
WHEREAS, the Salinas City Council has identified that the City pension costs will dramatically increase to unsustainable levels; and
WHEREAS, the rising pension costs will nearly double what is paid to CalPERS in the next seven years from $18.3 million to $35 million; and WHEREAS, the City has few options to address its growing pension liability; and WHEREAS, as part of the strategy to stabilize the City’s structural deficit and stabilize future pension cost increases, a 115 Trust is being established to accumulate funds to be invested and used in the future to offset the future pension costs; and WHEREAS, the 115 Trust allows the funds to be taken out at any time to reimburse the City for up to two years’ worth of pension costs, which makes the trust very liquid if the City needed the funds in an emergency; and
WHEREAS, the 115 Trust is one of the six recommendations included in the League of California Cities Retirement System Sustainability Study.

NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved by the Council of Salinas, that the Council approves the Adoption Agreement between the City and PFM Assets Management LLC (“PFM”), approves the Trust Administrative Services Agreement between PFM and City, and authorizes the City Manager, Finance Director and Assistant Finance Director as officers with the authority to execute these agreements and other necessary documents and agreements, including Wells Fargo custody services, to carry out the trust services on behalf of the City.

CITY COUNCIL ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
DATE: MARCH 8, 2022
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS, AIRPORT DIVISION
BY: DAVID JACOBS, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
FROM: BRETT J. GODOWN, C.M., C.A.E., AIRPORT MANAGER
TITLE: SALINAS MUNICIPAL AIRPORT MASTER PLAN – UPDATE NO. 1 RECOMMENDED MOTION:

No action is required.

RECOMMENDATION:

No recommendation is provided since this update is presented for informational purposes only.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Airport planning is a systematic process used to establish guidelines for the efficient development of airports that is consistent with local, state, and national goals. A key objective of airport planning is to assure the effective use of airport resources in order to satisfy aviation demand in a financially feasible manner. Airport planning may be as broad-based as the national system plan or more centrally focused as an airport master plan for a specific airport. An airport master plan represents the airport’s blueprint for long-term development.

The previous Master Plan (MP) for the Salinas Municipal Airport was completed in 2004. Since 2004, multiple minor updates have been completed to the MP. These minor updates are known as Airport Layout Plan (ALP) Updates, with the most recent ALP being completed in 2016. The objective of this MP is to evaluate the many changes that have occurred both at Salinas and with FAA guidance to develop a recommended future development plan that enhances the long-term operational viability of Salinas and provides an updated guide for land use and development decisions on and near the Airport.

Throughout the MP planning cycle planned through 2022 and 2023, regular updates will be presented to the Salinas Airport Commission and City Council.

Page | 2
BACKGROUND:

This report serves to update the Commission and Council on the overall Airport Master Planning process and our intent and goals for the Planning Advisory Committee (PAC) and Public Information Meetings held on February 23, 2022.

An airport master plan examines the anticipated growth of aviation activity and recommends a long-range (20-year) improvement plan to accommodate anticipated growth, maintain existing facilities, conform to FAA standards, and realize the City’s vision for its economic asset. The process for the Salinas Municipal Airport Master Plan will follow the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA’s) guidance on Airport Master Plans as prescribed in Advisory Circular 150/5070-6B. The general process includes, in mostly sequential order, data collection, activity forecasting, demand/capacity analysis, facility requirements and alternatives analysis, capital improvement programming, airport layout plan (ALP) development, and reporting.

The project is currently in the data collection and initiation phase. Efforts to date include onsite field inventory and review, desktop research, airport records review, discussions with airport staff, initiating aerial and ground surveys, establishing the PAC, initiating an environmental baseline, and scheduling the committee and public meetings. Additionally, input and questions about the project were solicited at the 2021 Air Show.

As part of the master planning process, the FAA requires an opportunity be provided by airport stakeholders and the general public. To this end, a PAC has been established and includes representatives from the City, airport tenants, local business interests, and airport neighbors. This committee has been established to advise the City and its consultants throughout the project regarding their ideas and concerns and is intended to represent a range of airport stakeholders with varied interests. The first meeting is intended for the consultant to brief the committee on the project and their role, answer any questions they may have and solicit early input for the project.

Committee members will be kept up to date on project progress and asked to comment on project deliverables throughout the project. Committee meetings will generally happen at key decision points during the project to allow for meaningful input. The first Committee meeting was held on February 23, 2022.

Additionally, public meetings will be held to inform the public of the project and its progress and to solicit feedback and input about the project and the airport in general. Public outreach, to-date, has included an information booth at the airshow and soliciting attendees for input, and the first public meeting held on February 23, 2022. Subsequent meetings will be scheduled at a later date.

CEQA/NEPA CONSIDERATION:

CEQA:

The City of Salinas has determined that the master planning effort is exempt (Categorical Exemption – CATEX) from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines (Section 15300, Class 1) because it is not a project. This plan will ensure the airport remains a safe operating facility as mandated by the FAA.

Page | 3
NEPA:

Because the City is accepting federal funds for this plan, the work is subject to National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The FAA has determined that the master planning effort is exempt (Categorical Exemption – CATEX) pursuant to FAA Order 1050.1E paragraph 307o because the issuance of a planning grant does not imply a project commitment, such as airport planning grants qualifies for a categorical exclusion. This plan will ensure the airport remains a safe operating facility as mandated by the FAA.

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

This project addresses the current City Council’s Goals of “Operational Efficiencies,” and “Investment Strategies/Risk Management.”

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION
The project management group includes the Public Works Director and Airport Manager.

Members of the PAC include other Divisions within Public Works and the Community Development Department. At subsequent stages and milestones, City Administration, City Attorney’s Office, and Salinas Fire and Police Departments will be coordinated with.

MESSAGE FROM POLICE

CHIEF ROBERTO FILICE
t is truly my honor to lead the men and women of
one of the finest police departments in the nation.

The culturally rich and thriving community of
Salinas is worthy of a professional, highly
experienced, and skilled police department.

As your chief of police, I make the commitment to
conserve and further develop public trust while
the
partnering with the community. I want Salinas to remain a place that residents are always proud to call home.

The Salinas Police Department will strive to be accessible, transparent, and a valued component of the community. It is important to me that our residents are heard and treasured.

As your public servant, I will listen to your concerns and endeavor to be transparent and honest with my community as well as the professionals I serve with.

Preserving the highest level of integrity promotes healthy internal relationships and strong community relations, which creates the quality of police service our residents deserve.

The Salinas Police Department is dedicated to a community policing strategy. We are incredibly proud and grateful for the countless relationships and partnerships we’ve developed, and we will continue to build and maintain trust, transparency, and legitimacy.

Today’s law enforcement is facing extreme challenges, yet I am delighted in our capability to adjust and remain dedicated to the safety of our residents and guests. 2021 POL I C E S ERVI C E OF SAL INAS 02

WWW.SALI N ASP D .ORG POLICE C H IEF ROBERTO FILICE
Our officers have a tough but rewarding job, and it is my responsibility to ensure they receive the necessary training, resources, equipment, guidance, and support to be successful and safe. This includes looking out for their health and well-being.

Therefore, officer wellness - physical, emotional and mental - is one of my top internal priorities moving forward.

In 2020 and 2021, COVID-19 challenged all of us. Beloved family members and loved ones were lost in our community, and my sincerest condolences go out to anyone who experienced such deep sorrow.

Although we were fortunate to have only one officer hospitalized in 2021 due to COVID-19, we are not letting our guard down. The spread of COVID-19 has revolutionized the way we work. In the interest of health and safety, we have limited in-person contacts whenever possible, temporarily closed the lobby to the public, maximized remote work for executive staff when warranted, and launched a new decontamination process for our workspaces, patrol cars, and uniforms. My job is to keep our officers and community as safe as possible, and these mitigation strategies help me to accomplish this responsibility.

Lastly, if you are considering a career in law enforcement, please continue browsing through the annual report to learn more about our great organization.

On behalf of my command staff, our employees, and volunteers, thank you.

Leadership
Chief Filice, Assistant Chief Martinez, and Commanders have made noteworthy strides to advance the Salinas Police Department. Their vision, aligned with 21st Century Policing, focuses on the reduction of crime, providing new opportunities for officer career development, reforming the organization’s efficiency through improved technology, and a commitment to refine and foster community relationships.

Chief Filice personally prioritizes community engagement and outreach by regularly reaching out to community groups, professional leaders, and local organizations. While he was Asst. Chief, he spearheaded the City of Salinas’ efforts to be awarded a grant for a full-time victim advocate to better serve our community. This victim advocate position has been the first of its kind within the Salinas Police Department. 21st Century Policing is Community-Driven
Trust between law enforcement agencies and the people they protect and serve is essential in a democracy. It is key to the stability of the community, the integrity of the criminal justice system, and the safe and effective delivery of policing services.

Six Pillars
The 21st Century Policing recommendations, each with action items, are organized around six main topic areas. In this annual report, you will discover different ways in which the Salinas Police Department has improved policing services and is modeling each of the Six Pillars of the 21st Century Policing outline. 2021 POL I C E S ERVI C E OF SAL INAS 06

2021 BEGAN WITH

SHELTER IN PLACE ORDER
The COVID-19 pandemic has altered
norms for all members of society, but
its effects on first responders have
been particularly profound. Law
enforcement officers have been
expected to encourage social
distancing while enforcing any state
and/or federal mandates.

SAVE LIVES AND KEEPING OUR

COMMUNITY SAFE
Our goal at Salinas PD was and still is
to save lives. Our goal is to stop the
spread of COVID-19 and begin the
road to normalcy. With the vaccine
and boosters still being
administered, we hope to be headed
in that direction.

CONSIDERATION OF OTHERS
Salinas Police Department utilized
creative approaches and partnerships
to best serve the community. For the
second year in a row, the #1 cause of
law enforcement deaths in the U.S.
was COVID-19 (301). Fortunately, we
had only one officer hospitalized and
has since fully recovered. We are so
grateful.

TECHNOLOGY & LEADERSHIP
2021 POL I C E S ERVI C E OF SAL INAS 14
As a part of the Salinas
Police Department's
overall mission to save
lives, we continue to
partner with ShotSpotter, a
technology to geolocate
gunshots in and around the
city.

With less than 8% of
gunshots receiving a
corresponding 911 call for
service within 3 minutes,
the system allows for realtime identification and
location of gunfire (within
300 feet) so law
enforcement can respond
more rapidly to incidents.

We have used license plate
reader (LPR) technology
since 2018. During 2021,
we added four trailers and
20 fixed cameras with LPR
capabilities.

SHOTSPOTTER
The most effective police
leaders are extremely
skilled at responding to
both change and challenge.

Traditional organizational
models of policing are
being replaced with
increased efficiency, new
technology, more
community involvement,
and new ways of
conducting our jobs.

It is an exciting time to be
in law enforcement. As we
continue to see a new
generation of police
officers join us, leadership
training is a priority.

We launched an intensive
2-day course on leadership
development for all firstline supervisors and will
continue to expand the
course moving forward.

ADDED LPRs
In 2022, we are introducing
a new text message survey
tool for the community to
provide feedback to our
department. Not everyone
will receive a survey and
residents who do not wish
to participate can simply
not respond.

Community feedback is
important, and we want to
know how we are doing or
if something can be
improved. We also want to
be able to provide positive
feedback to officers who
work diligently to keep our
community safe.
"AND THE SURVEY SAYS ..." LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

DRONE PROGRAM
We created a specific Drone
Program for Patrol/SWAT.

Due to the pandemic, the Community Police Academy was
not held in 2021.

To help build strong neighborhood crime

Department sponsors Neighborhood Watch.

We continue to rely on our strong
connections with established neighborhood
watch groups throughout the city and
anticipate that we will be offering training

Volunteers are an important part of any

PIER STRATEGY
Relationships Build Trust
The following strategies ensure the City of Salinas will continue to be recognized nationally as a leader in reducing crime by making enforcement part of a bigger, more integrated strategy of Prevention, Intervention, Enforcement and Re-entry services (PIER). This approach is based on the understanding that “you can’t arrest your way out of the problem,” but must also recognize and address the sources of violence, such as poverty, lack of opportunity, or the pain and anger that can result from a history of racial or ethnic disparities. ...AND JUSTICE FOR ALL

Prevention means working with
families to help young children get a
healthy, happy start in life. This is by
far one of the most effective ways to
make sure they never get in trouble as
teenagers or adults. We love
opportunities to work with our youth.

Enforcement is what we do when we
have to — protect people from those
who have become a threat. We no
longer do broad-based “sweeps,”
which can undermine trust when
people have unnecessary encounters
with the police — and we don’t go
after people because of their
immigration status.

Intervention means reaching young
people who might be drawn towards a
violent lifestyle and offering them
better alternatives, like counseling,
mentoring, after school programs,
recreation centers, sports or job
training.

Re-entry services are provided to
people who are returning to society
from prison. Instead of being dumped
back into their old neighborhood with
few options, the goal is to help them
make a fresh start. Per the state Penal
Code Section 186.30, gang members
may be instructed to register with law
enforcement.

THE PIER STRATEGY
By following this integrated strategy, cities have
shown that violence can be reduced significantly.

Directed patrols are the deployment of
resources based on concerns from
businesses or neighborhoods to address
specific issues. The officers work in
partnership with community members
The Field Operations Division,
commonly referred to as the Patrol
Division, covers the Salinas Community
24 hours every day. Officers are
assigned to areas throughout the city to
provide a quick and efficient response to
the community. Patrol officers are
typically the first person the community
sees when help is needed. The Patrol
Division is at the forefront of modern
policing and focuses on communityoriented policing.

Patrol Officers are committed to
enhancing the quality of life for all who
reside in and visit the City of Salinas.

Our success this year has been
predicated upon the community’s desire
to get involved. Together we solved
problems and improved the community
dramatically.
and use problem-solving strategies to
include enforcement, high visibility
patrols and community-oriented policing.

Most of the directed enforcement is
location based, however, it can also be
city-wide. Some examples of directed
enforcement the Police Service has
utilized include the Enduro unit
addressing quality of life or gang violence
issues in Carr Lake and Natividad Creek
Park, utilizing district foot patrols for the
downtown / SUBA business district, and
utilizing high visibility and targeted
enforcement to address loud music issues
and street racing/sideshows.

cleanup, social services, and resettlement
to residents in homeless camps.

Assistant Chief Manuel Martinez, who
leads HOT, has great compassion for
people affected by homelessness and living
in unhealthy living conditions. He also
understands the issues that homeless
camps cause for business owners,
residents and visitors to Salinas.
"Cleanups are difficult for everyone
involved. We have city and community
partners who make contact with
everybody - whether they are in a tent or a
blanket on the sidewalk - and we find out
how we can provide services to them.

They are also offered temporary storage
space to store any belongings they want
to keep." - Assistant Chief Martinez
Before the cleanup
began in July, the city
had more than 40
beds available for
anyone experiencing
homelessness. We
wanted to provide
both services and

Property & Evidence Unit
The Property & Evidence Unit is responsible for receiving all incoming property and evidence. Sources of property can include arrests, crime scenes, lost and found, etc.

In 2021, the Salinas Police Department assigned one full-time detective to focus exclusively on unsolved cold case homicides. The detective works closely with the District Attorney's Cold Case Investigation Team. As a result, two more cases were solved, and several more cases are getting closer to being resolved.

Anyone who has information on an unsolved cold case homicide is encouraged to call our Anonymous Tip Line at: 831.775.4222, utilize our online reporting tool found HERE, or call: 831.758.7321 to get in touch with our dedicated Cold Case Detective.

The Salinas Police Department’s SWAT
Team mission is to function as a highly

Social media has become a powerful tool for law

direct ways to engage with communities by sharing
critical updates, the latest accident or arrest

community we serve.

We have all witnessed the power of social media to
spread information rapidly to the public, which can
be especially useful for law enforcement.

The use of social media by the police, like other
public organizations, can offer many advantages:

The Media Team is responsible for the department's media relations, social media outreach, video production, event photography, and web page. During 2021, the department’s reach on social media exceeded 86,788 followers across all of its platforms. Community engagement has increased and the public has enjoyed the humor that is often included in posts (when appropriate).

A couple of days ago, Salinas PD officers were involved in the initial investigation related to the officer involved in a shooting on Rossi Street. Several of them were at the crime scene for an extended period of time, not able to take a lunch break. An officer was finally able to break away from the scene to go for a food run at one of our local restaurants.

When the officer came up to the drive-up window to pay the bill, he was pleasantly surprised to find that a community member in the car in front of him had paid the $95 bill because he appreciated the work police officers do.

We know there are many community members in support of the police and appreciate the work officers do on a daily basis. We want you all to know it does not go unnoticed. Thank you!

This year's award recipients were selected based on their outstanding service during Operation Black Hawk, a 4-month investigation into NorCal Transportation, which was suspected of operating a drug trafficking organization (DTO) with the specific intent to transport and distribute narcotics between Yuma, AZ and Salinas, CA. During the investigation, it was determined that NorCal Transportation was directly connected to the Sinaloa Cartel and transporting narcotics in conjunction with Norteno gang leaders.

often, migrant agriculture workers. This
group was known among themselves as
the “Murder Squad.” They orchestrated
seven shootings over the course of two
years, killing eight people and injuring
several others in 2017 and 2018. Seven
of the eight homicide victims had no
known gang affiliation. They were
murdered in cold blood for no other
reason than they were vulnerable and
met the suspects’ criteria for execution.

The remorseless suspects celebrated
their murders and operated in a culture
where the more “bodies” accumulated,
the higher status conferred on that
member.

This operation was without question
one of the most consequential
investigations in the history of the
Salinas Police Department. Detective
Gansen committed countless hours to
surveillance, interviews, and
unglamorous detective work.

Detective Byron Gansen received the
California Police Officer Association
(CPOA) Award of Distinction on Sept. 22,
2021 in San Diego.

On October 22, 2020, a federal grand
jury indicted 6 Salinas street gang
members, charging them with
racketeering, murder, conspiracy to
commit murder, and additional
firearms and gang-related crimes. The
federal indictments were the
culmination of a complex 3-year
investigation initiated and investigated
by Detective Byron Gansen.

Detective Gansen’s investigation
revealed that a violent group of Norteno
street gang members coordinated and
executed missions to hunt and kill rival
Sureno street gang members. When
they could not find Sureno gang
members, they targeted Latino males -

CITY OF SALINAS

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: MARCH 8, 2022
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS, FLEET AND STREET MAINTENANCE
FROM: DAVID JACOBS, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
BY: RONALD PATTERSON, FLEET MAINTENANCE MANANGER
TITLE: PURCHASE OF ONE 2022 FORD F-350 UTILITY BODY TRUCK AND TWO F-350 4X4 STANDARD CREW TRUCKS
RECOMMENDED MOTION:

It is recommended that City Council approve a resolution authorizing the direct purchase of one 2022 Ford F-350 Utility truck from Salinas Valley Ford at a total cost of $60,159.68 and two 2022 F-350 crew cabs at a cost of $46,644.80 each totaling $93,289.60 for a combined cost of $153,449.28.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that City Council approve a resolution authorizing the direct purchase of the trucks from Salinas Valley Ford at a total cost of $153,449.28.

BACKGROUND:

Public Works continues replace dated and worn-out vehicle fleet and equipment. Fleet maintenance will replace the 1996 Fleet Service Truck with the F-350 Utility body. This truck is used daily to pick up and drop off Police fleet vehicles and perform repairs off site as needed at the police station as well as service calls on the city-wide fleet. The current truck is over 25 years old. Being our only vehicle of this kind, it is imperative that we replace it before we have any major component failures.

The two F-350’s will go to replace a 1996 E-250 Econoline van and supplement a 2014 G Series Van which normally is used by the graffiti crew to paint. The Econoline van that will be replaced, is used daily towing a trailer to pick up trash with a crew of personnel. This new truck will better handle the towing that is required daily. The Econoline van has had three transmissions installed due to the nature of its use. The G van also tows a trailer and will be replaced by the F-350 allowing the G van to be utilized for graffiti abatement as it was originally intended. These trucks will both be interchangeable as needed and will allow crews to travel as a unit to accomplish a task. Four wheel drive was chosen due to the various locations these vehicles go to pick up trash.

Salinas Valley Ford has the F-350 being built at the body builder (Scelzi) and will be available once completed at a total cost of $60,159.80 and the F-350 Crew Cabs can be procured at an individual cost of $46,644.80. Currently, there is no option to price out a new, not in stock, F Series truck or to even compare to Sourcewell pricing. The only way to purchase is to purchase what exists on the vehicle lots and what dealers had in their ordering system. I did reach out to National Fleet Auto Group in Watsonville (Sourcewell) and there is no option to price any new trucks. They do not have any Ford F-350’s in stock with Scelzi Upfits. We are purchasing Fords due to fleet consistency. All our trucks except for light compact or heavy are Ford.

Fleet understands the need to move toward a greener fleet. There currently is not a solution for hybrid or full EV vehicles of this nature from an original equipment manufacturer.

The City can utilize cooperative purchases with other government agencies. Local businesses are given the opportunity to compete against these contracts. This purchase from Salinas Valley Ford satisfies the purpose and requirements of Article III-A, Local Purchasing Preference of the Salinas Municipal Code.

Council has the authority to approve these purchases under Municipal Code Section 12-27 – Exceptions (due to the nature of the purchase, low-bid based competition is not likely to serve the best interest of the city, yield the best value to the city, or result in the lowest price). There is no way to compare pricing due to the current vehicle shortage, but the pricing that has been giving aligns with older quotes for the same specifications.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

Not a Project. The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

The requested Council action directly relates to Council’s Strategic Plans or Goals of providing “Operational Efficiencies” and “Safe, Livable Community”. The purchase of the vehicle allows the Fleet and Streets Divisions reduce overall city debris on the roadways, ditches, green belts, and alleys and allow fleet to have a reliable service truck.

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

Fleet Maintenance, in coordination with Street Maintenance determined that the F-350’s meet their needs. The Finance Department will coordinate the purchase and title change.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

Funds are appropriated and available in the Public Works Department’s Capital Projects Fund Fleet Service Trucks Vehicles account (5800.50.9123-66.5500).

Ford is increasing the 5-year 60,000-mile limited powertrain warranty to 5-years, 100,000 miles.

Only Fleet purchasers with a valid Fleet Identification Number (FIN code) will receive the extended warranty. When the sale is entered into the sales reporting system with a sales type fleet along with a valid FIN code, the warranty extension will automatically be added to the vehicle. The extension will stay with the vehicle even if it is subsequently sold to a non-fleet customer before the expiration.

This extension applies to both gas and diesel powertrains. Dealers can check for the warranty extension on eligible fleet vehicles in OASIS. Please refer to the Warranty and Policy Manual section 3.13.00 Gas Engine Commercial Warranty. This change will also be reflected in the printed Warranty Guided distributed with the purchase of every new vehicle.

“No Stopping” Red Zones at Multiple Intersections
Approve a Resolution establishing a total of 125 feet of “No Stopping” red zones at the intersection of Pacana Circle at Nogal Drive, 70 feet of “No Stopping” red zones at the intersection of Rider Avenue at Las Casitas Drive, and 50 feet of “No Stopping” red zones at the intersection of Del Monte Avenue at Atlantic Street to provide sufficient intersection sight distance.

CITY OF SALINAS

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: MARCH 8, 2022
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS
FROM: DAVID JACOBS, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
BY: ANDREW EASTERLING, TRAFFIC ENGINEER
TITLE: “NO STOPPING” RED ZONES AT MULTIPLE INTERSECTIONS RECOMMENDED MOTION:

A motion to approve a Resolution approving a total of 125 feet of “No Stopping” red zones at the intersection of Pacana Circle at Nogal Drive, 70 feet of “No Stopping” red zones at the intersection of Rider Avenue at Las Casitas Drive, and 50 feet of “No Stopping” red zones at the intersection of Del Monte Avenue at Atlantic Street.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the establishment of a total of 125 feet of “No Stopping” red zones at the intersection of Pacana Circle at Nogal Drive, 70 feet of “No Stopping” red zones at the intersection of Rider Avenue at Las Casitas Drive, and 50 feet of “No Stopping” red zones at the intersection of Del Monte Avenue at Atlantic Street to provide sufficient intersection sight distance.

BACKGROUND:

Staff received requests to evaluate sight lines at the intersections of Pacana Circle at Nogal Drive, Rider Avenue at Las Casitas Drive, and Del Monte Avenue at Atlantic Street. Staff conducted an analysis and determined sight lines necessary to make a safe turning movement based on gap acceptance decision for turning movements for the minor roadway (Pacana Circle, Las Casitas Drive, and Atlantic Street) while providing necessary stopping sight distance for vehicles on the major roadway (Nogal Drive, Rider Avenue, and Del Monte Avenue). Based on the traffic analysis and design standards established by state and federal design guidelines, Staff is proposing the removal of approximately 125 feet of parking along Nogal Drive, 70 feet of parking along Rider Avenue, and 50 feet of parking along Del Monte Avenue.

Intersection sight distance criteria for stop-controlled intersections is typically longer than stopping sight distance to allow the intersection to operate smoothly. Minor road vehicle operators can wait at the approach until they can adequately evaluate sufficient gaps in traffic so that they can proceed safely without forcing a major road vehicle to stop or unduly interfering with major road traffic operations. For this application staff is recommending stopping sight distance as the minimum Page | 2
standard to apply to provide adequate sight lines and minimize the impacts to on-street parking capacity.

TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION:

At its December 9, 2021 the Traffic and Transportation Commission voted unanimously (4-0) to recommend to the City Council the establishment of 125 feet of “No Stopping” red zones at the intersection of Pacana Circle at Nogal Drive. At its February 10, 2022 meeting, the Traffic and Transportation Commission voted unanimously (7-0) to recommend to the City Council the establishment of 70 feet of “No Stopping” red zones at the intersection of Rider Avenue at Las Casitas Drive, and 50 feet of “No Stopping” red zones at the intersection of Del Monte Avenue at Atlantic Street.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

The City of Salinas has determined that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines (Section 15301, Class 1(c)) because the actions consist of operation and minor alteration of an existing City street.

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:
“No Stopping” red zones support the Council’s goal of “Public Safety.” DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

Red zones are installed and maintained by Public Works staff. Parking enforcement is provided in coordination with Parking Enforcement contractor (LAZ) and the Police Department.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

The estimated labor and material cost to install the “No Stopping” red zones at the intersections of Pacana Circle at Nogal Drive, Rider Avenue at Las Casitas Drive, and Del Monte Avenue at Atlantic Street and is approximately $900. Sufficient funding is available in the current streets budget to fund the installations.

ATTACHMENTS:

2) a HCD Authorizing Resolution authorizing the submission of a Joint Application to and Participation in the Homekey Program for the acquisition of ten (10) residential properties throughout the City to serve as immediate housing for families experiencing chronic homelessness in the amount not to exceed $27.8 million dollars.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

On September 9, 2021, HCD announced the availability of approximately $1.45 billion of Homekey Program Round 2 grant funding to build upon the success of its first round Homekey programs. This significant investment seeks to continue a statewide effort to rapidly expand affordable housing options for persons experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness, and who are impacted by or at increased risk for medical diseases or conditions due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Through the submission of a Homekey Program Round 2 application, the City will access available acquisition and operational funding for the rapid development and occupancy of ten (10) residential properties throughout the City that will create 10-15 units of much needed housing for chronically homeless families. This opportunity represents the most expedient and cost-effective way to increase the City’s stock of affordable housing for unsheltered families.

BACKGROUND:

On September 9, 2021, the HCD released a Homekey Program Round 2 NOFA for $1.45 billion.

The City seeks to apply for Homekey Round 2 funding as soon as possible due to the first come, first served nature of the funding. The City has identified its existing, experienced shelter operator and experienced Homekey Round 1 awardee, BACS, as its application partners for this Homekey Program Round 2 application. BACS has over 50 years of extensive experience and expertise acquiring and managing traditional and non-traditional housing models including small-site, scattered properties throughout the greater Bay Area region. In 2020, BACS partnered with the City of Oakland on a unique proposal to the first round of State of California Project Homekey funding. This model utilizes BACS pioneering “Project Reclamation” model ofsingle-family home acquisition and was one of the only applications that was supported through the inaugural Project Homekey program. The project type was so successful in allowing for rapid acquisition and occupancy that BACS and the City of Oakland are now scheduled to be honored with the Enterprise Community Partner award for innovation in Homekey projects.

Page | 3
DISCUSSION:

The City’s Homekey Program Round 2 application with BACS would seek to acquire ten (10) residential properties within the City’s jurisdiction to provide 10-15 new affordable housing units for families experiencing chronic homelessness. In this model, BACS will provide property acquisition and renovation on project residences as well as property management. Additional services including employment development and assistance, benefit access and mental health support, financial assistance and money management are also provided. This project model does not require any additional City match for supportive services as the model seeks to serve working families who are not otherwise able to afford current market-rate rents.

As the current local operator of the SHARE Center, BACS is intimately familiar with the City’s need to provide additional housing opportunities for families and is well positioned to facilitate and move some of the currently 114 wait-listed families for the SHARE Center into these new housing opportunities. It is estimated that occupancy of acquired residences will occur within thirty (30) days of the close of escrow. Initial and future residents will be referred to the project through the Coordinated Access and Referral System (CARS) administered by local service providers that are part of the Coalition for Homeless Services Providers (Coalition) and referral agencies with access to Monterey County Housing Authority set aside vouchers.

Currently, the City and BACS are actively engaging with HCD Homekey staff in a joint effort to explore and propose innovative options to resolve an unanticipated issue identified within current Homekey program regulations involving mandated applicant “site control” at the time of application submission. HCD has continued to voice strong support for this program model and all parties are confident that a resolution will be forthcoming.

Upon resolution, the City and BACS are prepared and well positioned to apply prior to the end of the Round 2 application period on May 2, 2022 and are poised to move quickly upon an award of Homekey funds. BACS’ Housing Corporation has over 50 years of expertise in acquiring and managing traditional and non-traditional properties. Currently, it owns more than 300 units of affordable, single-family homes across the greater Bay Area region – 129 of which were acquired as part of the inaugural 2020 Project Homekey awards. BACS’ Real Estate Development Team has strong quality control procedures around building design and quality. A long-established relationship with banking partner, West America, has resulted in a special loan product which allows the non-profit to quickly and competitively secure move-in ready properties under all cash, 30-day close offers.

BACS is responsible for completing required due diligence including an Appraisal, Property Needs Assessment, and any required Environmental Reports. The City will facilitate the consideration and resolution of any necessary land-use or zoning changes to include outreach to adjacent property owners to provide notification about the proposal and to incorporate features to minimize impacts. The City and BACS have coordinated with the Coalition to formalize the selection process of Homekey residents and the use of local Emergency Housing Vouchers and will also consider the submission of an application to the Housing Authority of Monterey County for future Project Based Vouchers.

HCD anticipates providing award announcements to applicants within 45 days of submission with the issuance of Standard Agreements to follow shortly after.

Project Timeline
 February 22, 2022 - Housing & Land Use Committee
 March 8, 2022 – Council Approval to submit Homekey Round 2 Application  March 15 – May 2, 2022 – Submit Homekey Round 2 Application to HCD  May 1 – July 15, 2022 – Anticipated HCD award notification  June 1 – August 1, 2022 – Estimated start of acquisition of properties  July 1 – September 1, 2022 – Estimated start of occupancy The anticipated total amount requested in this Homekey Round 2 Application to HCD for this project is $13.9 million including $12.3 million for acquisition and $1.6 million for operating subsidy. However, HCD recommends that jurisdictions request double the anticipated grant award resulting in a total request of $27.8 million for the project. In this case, the attached HCD Resolution includes a respective total amount not to exceed $27.8 million for the project.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is exempt from CEQA. Pursuant to AB 140, the following CEQA statutory exemption has been added to Health and Safety Code section 50675.1.4: (a) Notwithstanding any other law, the California Environmental Quality Act (Division 13 (commencing with section 21000) of the Public Resources Code) shall not apply to any project, including a phased project, funded pursuant to section 50675.1.3 if all of the following requirements, if applicable, are satisfied: (1) No units were acquired by eminent domain. (2) The units will be in decent, safe, and sanitary condition at the time of their occupancy. (3) The project proponent shall require all contractors and subcontractors performing work on the project to pay prevailing wages for any proposed rehabilitation, construction, or major alterations in accordance with Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 1720) of Part 7 of Division 2 of the Labor Code. (4) The project proponent obtains an enforceable commitment that all contractors and subcontractors performing work on the project will use a skilled and trained workforce for any proposed rehabilitation, construction, or major alterations in accordance with Chapter 2.9 (commencing with Section 2600) of Part 1 of Division 2 of the Public Contract Code. (5) The project proponent submits to the lead agency a letter of support from a county, city, or other local public entity for any proposed rehabilitation, construction, or major alteration work. (6) Any acquisition is paid for, in whole or part, with public funds. (7) The project provides housing units for individuals and families who are experiencing homelessness or who are at risk of homelessness. (8) Long-term covenants and restrictions require the units to be restricted to persons experiencing homelessness or who are at risk of homelessness, which may include lower income and very low-income households, as defined by Section 50079.5, for no fewer than 55 years. (9) The project does not result in an increase in the existing onsite development footprint of structure, structures, or improvements by more than 10 percent. The Project qualifies for the exemption because it would meet all of these requirements.

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

The Project will help advance the following City Council strategic goals: 1) Investment Strategies/ Risk Management, 2) New Revenue, and 3) Public Safety by securing a grant to provide much needed housing and wrap around services to those families experiencing chronic homelessness.

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

The grant will be administered by the City’s Community Development Department (CDD). CDD will continue to work with the City Attorney and City Manager on finalizing the application and Memorandum of Understanding and any necessary actions to complete the acquisition and development process.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

To maximize HCD funding, jurisdictions must agree to a local match of four (4) years of operational subsidy to secure three years from the state. The local match can include emergency housing vouchers (EHVs). The amount for four years of operational rental subsidy for ten (10) units assuming no EHVs is approximately $1,600,000. It is recommended that the City provide $1.6 million as a local match that would cover four years of rental subsidy for ten (10) units. If a household living in these projects has a housing voucher, the total amount of rental subsidy provided by the City would be reduced. The City will also seek additional funding from the County and Continuum of Care to help subsidize these projects and reduce the City’s commitment.

Funding of the required local match would come from the following sources:
 $215,000 – HOME ARP
 $1,3000,000 – HCD Permanent Local Housing Allocation
 $85,000 – CIP 9021 Housing Production
HOME ARP funds are not related to the City ARPA funds (approximately $52 million). These funds are HUD entitlement funds through the American Rescue Plan specifically designed to address homelessness and homeless prevention created by the pandemic.

If this project receives a Homekey grant award, it may be necessary to return to City Council to formerly appropriate the local match as required by the funding source. At that time, City Council may revisit the breakdown of funding if other funding sources are secured or identified.

ATTACHMENTS:
 CityResolution Authorizing Homekey Application Submittal, $1.6 million Local Match, and Authorizing the Execution of a MOU with Bay Area Community Services Housing Corporation  HCD Authorizing Resolution for Joint Application to and Participation in the Homekey Program

CITY OF SALINAS

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: March 8, 2022
DEPARTMENT: HUMAN RESOURCES
FROM: Marina Horta-Gallegos, Human Resources Director
TITLE: Modification to the Classification – Salary Schedule RECOMMENDED MOTION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve a Resolution modifying the Classification – Salary Schedule to reflect the Criminalist classification that has been added to the Association of Management Personnel of Salinas (AMPS) unit and removed from the Salinas Police Officers Association (SPOA) unit. Additionally: adjust the Classification – Salary Schedule to include the previously authorized Senior Code Enforcement Officer classification and include the classification of Accountant (temporary).

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council approve the attached Resolution modifying the Classification – Salary Schedule to reflect that the Criminalist classification has been added to the AMPS unit and removed from the SPOA unit and includes the classifications of Senior Code Enforcement Officer and Accountant (temporary).

BACKGROUND:

The Criminalist classification has been in the Salinas Police Officers Association (SPOA) unit since approximately 1987. During labor negotiations with the SPOA in 2021, the City and the unit agreed to remove this classification from the SPOA unit when the position became vacant. The City retained the services of Regional Government Services to conduct a study of the position and identify sworn and non-sworn functions of the position. Following the study, a revised job description was developed that narrowed the duties to the day-to-day activities of the crime laboratory and collection, examination, and analysis of crime scene evidence, in addition to supervision non-sworn staff assigned to the laboratory. The sworn functions of the position were removed.

The civilianization of this classification is consistent with the recommendations of the Salinas Plan. The salary range for this position remains at $49.0585 – $62.6163 and falls within the scope of the representation unit of AMPS.

Page | 2
Additionally, staff recommends the addition of the Senior Code Enforcement Officer classification to the Classification – Salary Schedule which was previously approved through the budget process for FY 21-22; and include the temporary classification of Accountant for the Finance Department.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

Not a Project. The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

The proposed action meets the Operational Efficiencies Council goal and is consistent with the Salinas Plan recommendations.

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

The Human Resources Department coordinated with the Police and Finance Departments in this effort.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

The regular positions of Criminalist and Senior Code Enforcement Officer are budgeted. No additional fiscal impact is anticipated. The temporary Accountant position will be funded using temporary funds while funds are available.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: MARCH 8, 2022
DEPARTMENT: ADMINISTRATION
FROM: STEVEN S. CARRIGAN, CITY MANAGER
TITLE: RESOLUTION OPPOSING STATE BALLOT MEASURE 21-0042A1 RECOMMENDED MOTION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve a Resolution opposing State Ballot Measure 21- 0042A1, restricting voters’ input and local taxing authority.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached Resolution opposing State Ballot Measure 21-0042A1, which restricts voters’ input and local taxing authority.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

According to information provided by the League of California Cities (Cal Cities), in early 2018, the “Tax Fairness, Transparency and Accountability Act” or AG#17-0050 Amdt. #1, was being circulated to qualify for the November 2018 ballot. This initiative would have drastically limited local revenue authority. Through the successful work and advocacy of Cal Cities and its coalition partners, the measure’s proponents withdrew the initiative from the ballot in June 2018.

According to Cal Cities, in January of this year, the California Business Roundtable filed the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act or AG#21-0042A1, a measure they state, is far more detrimental to cities than the measure filed in 2018, because it would decimate vital local and state services to the benefit of wealthy corporations.

During its December 2-3, 2021 meeting, the League of California Cities Board of Directors voted unanimously to oppose Initiative 21-0026A1. Following the Board’s unanimous decision, a coalition of public safety, labor, local government and infrastructure advocates have joined together to fight against this measure. With the Attorney General set to release the Title and Summary soon, the coalition announced their opposition against the measure. The proponents will need to submit nearly 1 million signatures in order to qualify for the November 2022 ballot and the Secretary of State’s recommended date to turn in signatures is April 29, 2022.

The City of Salinas has provided our residents with sustainable local services brought about my having local fee authority, and opposing this proposed State Ballot Measure is an important safeguard.

A RESOLUTION OF THE SALINAS CITY COUNCIL TO OPPOSE STATE BALLOT MEASURE 21-0042A1 RESTRICTING VOTERS’ INPUT AND LOCAL TAXING

AUTHORITY
WHEREAS, an association representing California’s wealthiest corporations is behind a deceptive proposition aimed for the November 2022 statewide ballot; and WHEREAS, the measure creates new constitutional loopholes that allow corporations to pay far less than their fair share for the impacts they have on our communities, including local infrastructure, our environment, water quality, air quality, and natural resources; and WHEREAS, the measure includes undemocratic provisions that would make it more difficult for local voters to pass measures needed to fund local services and infrastructure, and would limit voter input by prohibiting local advisory measures where voters provide direction on how they want their local tax dollars spent; and
WHEREAS, the measure makes it much more difficult for state and local regulators to issue fines and levies on corporations that violate laws intended to protect our environment, public health and safety, and our neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, the measure puts billions of dollars currently dedicated to state and local services at risk, and could force cuts to public schools, fire and emergency response, law enforcement, public health, parks, libraries, affordable housing, services to support homeless residents, mental health services, and more; and
WHEREAS, the measure would also reduce funding for critical infrastructure like streets and roads, public transportation, drinking water, new schools, sanitation, and utilities.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Salinas, opposes Initiative 21- 0042A1; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Salinas will join the NO on Initiative 21-0042A1 coalition, a growing coalition of public safety, labor, local government, infrastructure advocates, and other organizations throughout the state; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City Manager or his designee is hereby directed to transmit this Resolution as appropriate to lodge the City of Salinas’s objection to this proposed initiative measure, including to email a copy of this Resolution to the League of California Cities at [email protected].

The Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act Initiative No. 21-0042A1
January 21, 2022
Summary: The measure limits the voters’ input, adopts new and stricter rules for raising taxes and fees, and makes it more difficult to hold state and local law violators accountable.

Limiting Voter Authority and Accountability
• Limits voter input. Prohibits local voters from providing direction on how local tax dollars should be spent by prohibiting local advisory measures. • Invalidates Upland decision that allows majority of local voters to pass special taxes. Taxes proposed by the Initiative are subject to the same rules as taxes placed on the ballot by a city council. All measures passed between January 2022 and November 2022 would be invalidated unless reenacted within 12 months.

Restricting Local Fee Authority to Provide Local Services • Franchise fees. Sets new standard for fees and charges paid for the use of local and state government property. The standard may significantly restrict the amount oil companies, utilities, gas companies, railroads, garbage companies, cable companies, and other corporations pay for the use of local public property. Rental and sale of local government property must be “reasonable” which must be proved by “clear and convincing evidence.”
• Except for licensing and other regulatory fees, fees and charges may not exceed the “actual cost” of providing the product or service for which the fee is charged. “Actual cost” is the “minimum amount necessary.” The burden to prove the fee or charge does not exceed “actual cost” is changed to “clear and convincing” evidence.

Restricting Authority of State and Local Governments to Issue Fines and Penalties for Violations of Law.
• Requires voter approval of fines, penalties, and levies for corporations and property owners that violate state and local laws unless a new, undefined adjudicatory process is used to impose the fines and penalties.

Restricting Local Tax Authority to Provide Local Services • Expanding existing taxes (e.g., UUT, use tax, TOT) to new territory (e.g., annexation) or expanding the base (e.g., new utility service) requires voter approval.
• City charters may not be amended to include a tax or fee. • New taxes can be imposed only for a specific time period. • Taxes adopted after January 1, 2022, that do not comply with the new rules, are void unless reenacted.
• All state taxes require majority voter approval.
• Prohibits any surcharge on property tax rate and allocation of property tax to state.

Other Changes
• No fee or charge or exaction regulating vehicle miles traveled can be imposed as a condition of property development or occupancy.

Stop the Corporate Loopholes Scheme
Deceptive Proposition Allows Major Corporations to Avoid Paying their Fair Share and Evade Enforcement when they Violate Environmental, Health & Safety Laws An association representing California’s wealthiest corporations — including oil, insurance, banks and drug companies — is behind a deceptive proposition aimed for the November 2022 statewide ballot. Their measure would create major new loopholes that allow corporations to avoid paying their fair share for the impacts they have on our communities; while also allowing corporations to evade enforcement when they violate environmental, health, safety and other state and local laws. Here’s why a broad coalition of local governments, labor and public safety leaders, infrastructure advocates, and businesses oppose the Corporate Loophole Scheme:

Gives Wealthy Corporations a Major Loophole to Avoid Paying their Fair Share - Forcing Local Residents and Taxpayers to Pay More • The measure creates new constitutional loopholes that allow corporations to pay far less than their fair share for the impacts they have on our communities, including local infrastructure, our environment, water quality, air quality, and natural resources – shifting the burden and making individual taxpayers pay more.

Allows Corporations to Dodge Enforcement When They Violate Environmental, Health, Public Safety and Other Laws
• The deceptive scheme creates new loopholes that makes it much more difficult for state and local regulators to issue fines and levies on corporations that violate laws intended to protect our environment, public health and safety, and our neighborhoods.

Jeopardizes Vital Local and State Services
• This far-reaching measure puts at risk billions of dollars currently dedicated to critical state and local services.
• It could force cuts to public schools, fire and emergency response, law enforcement, public health, parks, libraries, affordable housing, services to support homeless residents, mental health services and more. • It would also reduce funding for critical infrastructure like streets and roads, public transportation, drinking water, new schools, sanitation, utilities and more.

Opens the Door for Frivolous Lawsuits, Bureaucracy and Red Tape that Will Cost Taxpayers and Hurt Our Communities
• The measure will encourage frivolous lawsuits, bureaucracy and red tape that will cost local taxpayers millions — while significantly delaying and stopping investments in infrastructure and vital services.

Undermines Voter Rights, Transparency, and Accountability • This misleading measure changes our constitution to make it more difficult for local voters to pass measures needed to fund local services and local infrastructure.
• It also includes a hidden provision that would retroactively cancel measures that were passed by local voters — effectively undermining the rights of voters to decide for themselves what their communities need.
• It would limit voter input by prohibiting local advisory measures, where voters provide direction to politicians on how they want their local tax dollars spent.

Fiscal and Program Effects of
Initiative 21-0042A1 on Local Governments
If Initiative 21-0042A1 is placed on the ballot and passed by voters, it will result in:
 Billions of local government fee and charge revenues placed at heightened legal peril. Related public service reductions across virtually every aspect of city, county, special district, and school services especially for transportation, and public facility use.  Hundreds of millions of dollars of annual revenues from dozens of tax and bond measures approved by voters between January 1, 2022 and November 9, 2022 subject to additional voter approval if not in compliance with the initiative.
 Indeterminable legal and administrative burdens and costs on local government from new and more empowered legal challenges, and bureaucratic cost tracking requirements.  The delay and deterrence of municipal annexations and associated impacts on housing and commercial development.
 Service and infrastructure impacts including in fire and emergency response, law enforcement, public health, drinking water, sewer sanitation, parks, libraries, public schools, affordable housing, homelessness prevention and mental health services.

1. Local Government Taxes and Services Threatened
With regard to taxes, Initiative 21-0042A1:
 Prohibits advisory, non-binding measures as to use of tax proceeds on the same ballot. o Voters may be less informed and more likely to vote against measures.  Eliminates the ability of special tax measures proposed by citizen initiative to be enacted by majority voter approval (Upland).
o Because the case law regarding citizen initiative special taxes approved by majority vote (Upland) is so recent, it is unknown how common these sorts of measures might be in the future. This initiative would prohibit such measures after the effective date of the initiative. Any such measures adopted after January 1, 2022 through November 8, 2022 would be void after November 9, 2023.
 Requires that tax measures include a specific duration of time that the tax will be imposed. This seems to require that all tax increases or extensions contain a sunset (end date). o This would require additional tax measures to extend previously approved taxes at additional cost to taxpayers.
 Requires that a tax or bond measure adopted after January 1, 2022 and before the effective date of the initiative (November 9, 2022) that was not adopted in accordance with the measure be readopted in compliance with the measure or will be void twelve months after the effective date of the initiative (November 9, 2023).
o If past election patterns are an indication, dozens of tax and bond measures approving hundreds of millions of annual revenues may not be in compliance and would be subject to reenactment.

Most will be taxes without a specific end date. Because there is no regularly scheduled election within the 12 months following the effective date of the initiative, measures not in compliance would need to be placed on a special election ballot for approval before November 9, 2023 or the tax will be void after that date. General tax measures would require declaration of emergency and unanimous vote of the governing board.

 Requires voter approval to expand an existing tax to new territory (annexations). This would require additional tax measures and would deter annexations and land development in cities. o If a tax is "extended" to an annexed area without a vote after January 1, 2022, it will be void 12 months later until brought into compliance. Because there is no regularly scheduled election within the 12 months following the effective date of the initiative, such extensions for general taxes would, under current law, each require unanimous vote of the agency board to be placed on a special election ballot or would be void after November 9, 2023.

1.a. Number of Measures and Value of Local Taxes at Risk1 In 2020, voters in California approved 293 local tax and bond measures for cities, counties, special districts and schools (95 in March and 198 in November). The approved measures enacted $3.85 billion in new annual taxes including $1.3 billion for cities, $302 million for counties, $208 million for special districts (fire, wastewater, open space and transit districts), and $2.037 billion for schools (including for school bonds).

Most tax measures go to the ballot during a presidential or gubernatorial primary or general election in an even year. However, some tax measures are decided at other times. During 2019, there were 45 approved tax and bond measures (24 city, 14 special district, 7 school) adopting $154.0 million in new annual taxes ($124.0 million city, $10.5 million special district and $19.2 million school).

Most tax and bond measures comply with the new rules in Initiative 21-0042Amdt#1 except:
 Dozens of taxes would require end dates. This would require additional measures in future years to extend the taxes further. Very few extensions of existing local taxes fail.  Majority vote general tax measures could not be accompanied on the same ballot with an advisory, non-binding measure as to use of tax proceeds.  Special taxes placed on the ballot via citizen initiative would require two-thirds voter approval.

Bond measures have fixed terms. Historically, about 20 percent of other tax measures have included specific durations (i.e. sunsets). Advisory measures as to use of revenues are uncommon. I do not expect the provisions of 21-0042A1 to have any substantial effect on passage rates. However, some 2022 approved measures would likely have to put back on the ballot.

Based on history, a reasonable estimate of the annualized tax revenues estimated to be approved by 1 Source: Compilation and summary of data from County elections offices. – 3 – rev January 7, 2022

voters in 2022 and placed at risk by this initiative is at least $1.5 billion, including $1.0 billion from cities and $500 million from counties and special districts. 2 1.b. Additional Costs and Public Service Effects of the Tax Provisions In addition to service delays and disruption due to new tax revenues placed at greater legal risk, there will be substantial additional costs for legal defense. The deterrence of taxes for annexations will delay and deter municipal annexations.

2. “Exempt Charges” (fees and charges that are not taxes) and Services Threatened With regard to fees and charges adopted after January 1, 2022, Initiative 21-0042A1:
 Subjects new fees and charges for a product or service to a new "actual cost” test defined as “(i) the minimum amount necessary to reimburse the government for the cost of providing the service to the payor, and (ii) where the amount charged is not used by the government for any purpose other than reimbursing that cost. In addition, subjects these same charges to a new, undefined, “reasonable” standard.
 Subjects fees and charges for entrance to local government property; and rental and sale of local government property to a new, undefined, “reasonable” test.  Subjects a challenged fee or charge to new, higher burdens of proof if legally challenged.  Prohibits a levy, charge or exaction regulating or related to vehicle miles traveled, imposed as a condition of property development or occupancy.

2.a. Value on New Local Government Fees and Charges at Risk3 Virtually every city, county, and special district must regularly (e.g., annually) adopt increases to fee rates and charges and revise rate schedules to accommodate new users and activities. Most of these would be subject to new standards and limitations under threat of legal challenge. Based on the current volume of fees and charges imposed by local agencies and increases in those fees simply to accommodate inflation, the amount of local government fee and charge revenue placed at risk is about $1 billion per year including those adopted since January 1, 2022. Of this $1 billion, about $570 million is for special districts, $450 million is cities, and $260 million is counties.4
Major examples of affected fees and charges are:

1. Nuisance abatement charges - such as for weed, rubbish and general nuisance abatement to fund community safety, code enforcement, and neighborhood cleanup programs.

2. Commercial franchise fees.

3. Emergency response fees - such as in connection with DUI.

4. Advanced Life Support (ALS) transport charges.

5. Document processing and duplication fees.

6. Transit fees, tolls, parking fees, public airport and harbor use fees.

7. Facility use charges, fees for parks and recreation services, garbage disposal tipping fees.

In addition to fees and charges, the measure puts fines and penalties assessed for the violation of state and 2 This does not include citizen initiative special tax approved by majority but not two-thirds. Because this approach is new, the number of these measures and amount of revenue involved cannot be estimated. 3 Source: California State Controller Annual Reports of Financial Transactions concerning cities, counties and special districts, summarized with an assumed growth due to fee rate increases (not population) of 2 percent annually. 4 School fees are also affected but the amount is negligible by comparison. – 4 – rev January 7, 2022

local law at risk, making them taxes subject to voter approval under certain circumstances.

2.b. Additional Costs and Public Service Effects of the Fee/Charge Provisions In addition to service delays and disruptions due to fee and charge revenues placed at greater legal risk, there would be substantial additional costs for legal defense. The risk to fees and charges will make infrastructure financing more difficult and will deter new residential and commercial development. ***********
