COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

DATE: SEPTEMBER 24, 2024
DEPARTMENT: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT

FROM: LISA BRINTON, DIRECTOR

BY: CRYSTAL CASILLAS, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT

ANALYST (LIMITED-TERM)

TITLE: RESOLUTION TO LEVY SALINAS U NITED BUSINESS
ASSOCIATION (SUBA) FY 2024-2025 ANNUAL ASSESSMENT

RECOMMENDED MOTION:

A motion to approve a Resolution to levy and collect the annual assessment in the Salinas United Business Association (“SUBA”) Business Improvement Area (“BIA”) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024- 2025.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council hold a public hearing to consider written testimony regarding the annual levy of assessment in the SUBA BIA for FY 2024-2025, tabulate and confirm any protests; and provided that protests received represent less than 50% of the assessments proposed to be levied, approve a resolution which denies such protests, and confirms the SUBA Annual Report for FY 2023-2024 (“Annual Report”) and its proposed budget for FY 202 4-2025, which shall constitute the levy of assessment for this fiscal year.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

As required by California Streets and Highways Code Section 36535, “Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1989”, prior to considering approval of a resolution to levy the annual assessment in the SUBA BIA, the City is to hold a public hearing to rec eive the testimony of all interested persons for or against the levy of an assessment for FY 202 4-2025. Pr ovided that protests received represent less than 50% of the assessments proposed to be levied, the Council can confirm the Annual Report for FY 202 4-2025 and its proposed budget for FY 202 4-2025, which shall constitute the levy of assessment for this fiscal year.

BACKGROUND:

The Salinas United Business Association (SUBA) is a 501(c)(6) nonprofit corporation appointed by the City Council to serve as the Advisory Board of the Business Improvement Area formed in Page | 2
2004 under the Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1989. Through the levying of assessments, SUBA provides district members with benefit servic es - support and resources they need to be successful business owners including business training, marketing, and streetscape beautification and maintenance. The SUBA BIA is in East Salinas, its boundaries include the major commercial corridors of East Market and East Alisal Streets and North Sanborn Road. A boundary map is provided as an attachment to this report. No boundary changes are proposed.

On August 6, 2024, the City Council received SUBA’s 2023-2024 Annual Report and approved a Resolution of Intention (R.O.I.) to hold a public hearing on September 24, 2024, to consider the levy and collection of assessment for 2024-2025. As required by the Streets and Highways Code, R.O. I. 646 was noticed in the Monterey County Weekly, a local newspaper, on August 22, 2024, not less than seven (7) days prior to the public hearing. SUBA distributed approximately 355 door to door flyers to SUBA business members along East Market Street, East Alisal Street, and North Sanborn Road. SUBA also sent 430 direct emails to member businesses and plans to post two social media updates before the public hearing on September 24th, 2024.

DISCUSSION:

Consideration of Annual Levy of Assessment

At the hearing, Council will hear the testimony of all interested persons for or against the levy. If protests of BIA members are less than 50% of the assessments proposed, the Council can duly overrule protests and deny all said protests and objections. Following the hearing, the Council may confirm the FY 2023-2024 Annual Report as filed by SUBA or the Council may modify the Annual Report and confirm it as modified. Adoption of the resolution confirming the FY 2023-2024 Annual Report shall constitute the levy of assessment for FY 2024-2025.

If written protests are received from the owners of businesses in the SUBA BIA which will pay 50% or more of the assessments proposed to be levied in FY 20 24-2025 and protests are not withdrawn so as to reduce the pro tests to less than that 50%, no further proceeding to levy an assessment for FY 2024-2025 shall be taken for a period of one year from the date of the finding of a majority protest. If the majority protest is only against the furnishing of a specified type of improvement or activity in the Business Improvement Area, specific improvement(s) or activity(ies) will be eliminated.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action confirming SUBA’s annual report and considering SUBA’s annual levy of assessment is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378). Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability.

Page | 3
CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:

No.

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

This staff report and recommendations aligns closely with the City Council’s goals (2022-2025) of Economic Development and Public Safety. SUBA utilizes the BIA assessment to provide small businesses with access to the educational, technical assistance and financial resources they need to prosper, expand, and engage businesses in existing beautification efforts.

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

Community Development staff acts as SUBA’s City liaison. The Finance Department assisted Community Development with verifying the assessment projections for 2024-2025. As highlighted in the Annual Report, Community Development, Public Works, and Police Department staff have collaborated with SUBA to support its goals of improving the safety, cleanliness, and appearance of the BIA.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

The levy of assessment for FY 2024-2025 will have no fiscal impact on the General Fund. Under the amended Ordinance (2019), SUBA is to remit and collect the assessment. Designated City liaison’s time for coordination with SUBA, participation in Board Meetings, and review of the annual report and processing of the annual levy of assessment is already allocated through staff time in the adopted 2024-2025 City budget.

The Salinas Municipal Code Section 21B-40. Collection of assessments; delinquencies. states that assessments will be due and payable in advance on November 1st.

About the Salinas
United Business
Association

The Salinas United Business Association (SUBA).

In 2003, East Salinas businesses began having a
conversation about how to improve the Alisal
area. The conversation led to the question of
how to get more resources from the City of
Salinas into the area. The idea was that East
Salinas businesses were contributing a large
portion of sales tax to the City of Salinas.

The small business owners felt that there was not enough investment from the City of Salinas in return. A group of 7 business owners came together and had a meeting with the Redevelopment Agency to brainstorm on how to create more opportunities for the small businesses. The Salinas United Business Association was formed in 2004 after these businesses along with City staff and volunteers gathered signatures to start a BIA (Business Improvement Area). SUBA serves as the Advisory Board of the Business Improvement Area (BIA) formed in 2004 under the Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1989. Through the levying of assessments, SUBA provides area members with benefit services, support, and resources they need to be successful business owners including business training, marketing and streetscape beautification and maintenance.

SUBA has been working closely with the City of Salinas and the Alisal Vibrancy Plan to try and create more opportunities for beautification, district identity and bringing more art to the Alisal. It is important to create opportunities for small businesses and to attract new customers by having a safe, vibrant, and clean community. SUBA embraces the rich land, the rich culture and the history of the people that make up the Alisal.

Annual Plan

2023-2024 Goals-Accomplishments:

COLLABORATE Collaborated throughout the year with the City of Salinas, in particular with the Community Development Department, Salinas Police Department events, public safety meetings, dispersing of information, working with other partners such as the Salinas Valley Chamber of Commerce on various mixers and committees focused on development review recommendations for the City of Salinas. We continued our partnership with Negozee, the Monterey County Workforce Development Council, El Pajaro CDC, Mission Services Corporation and the local SBDC. In addition, we built upon our partnerships with the Monterey County Business

Council (MCBC) and with the Monterey County Visitors and Convention Bureau (See Monterey). Lastly, we developed a partnership with UC Santa Cruz and their Get Virtual program to offer websites and social media use for their businesses.

Our partnerships with all of these organizations has helped SUBA continue to offer workshops, webinars, outreach and resources for our businesses. Without the work of our partners and in particular MCBC, SUBA believes that the ability to provide the necessary resources and connections to our businesses would diminish and therefore would cause for less businesses to possibly pay their SUBA assessments.

WORK Worked throughout the year with the County Health Department, the City’s Code Enforcement, Salinas City Police Department, Monterey County Work Force Development Program, SUBA members and Cal Trans to improve monitoring of city and county health and safety and had 4 clean ups throughout the year. This year we combined to have 2 clean ups in conjunction with other partners including the City of Salinas, the Salinas Valley Chamber of Commerce, Blue Zones and the Downtown Streets Team and our Ambassadors.

SUBA monitored and worked with the Police Department and Public Works to deal with issues affecting the SUBA area and small businesses with the unhoused and worked with our restaurants and mobile food vendors to deal with an increase in unpermitted food vendors in our area and throughout the city. We see a continued increase in crime, especially burglaries throughout the SUBA area. SUBA had three safety meetings throughout the area to try and address many of the issues. Along with many one-on-one meetings with businesses.

Our focus was on assisting SUBA small businesses in providing assistance to make payments on their EIDL loans, finding other grants and assisting in applying for these grants. These grants included the the City of Salinas Marketing and Technology Grants and PG&E Grants as well as others. Our partner MCBC assisted us with the Refrigeration Grants as well as helping with the Employee Retention Credit federal program. We were able to help 5 new businesses through that process through SUBA directly. All together with assistance of MCBC and others, SUBA directly brought to our businesses $243,915.00 in funds from the ERC.

OFFER SUBA offered and promoted the events from El Pajaro CDC, Negozee, Mission Services Corporation, Cal Coastal, Monterey County Business Council, Monterey County Works and the City of Salinas business workshops and classes for small business growth and development. SUBA partnered with Mission Services Corporation, Negozee, Arranque Empresial, Mariposa con Proposito , Monterey County Business Council and other partners to offer business workshops and classes for small business growth and development. We had a total of 443 businesses that participated in these workshops, webinars and classes. SUBA continued its partnership with the partners above, but in particular with Negozee, Monterey County Business Council and Aranque Empresial to offer Business

Classes/Talks for our an approximate number of SUBA members that totaled 222 businesses participated in these webinars and or workshops.

IMPLEMENT Our plan to implement projects aimed at the beautification of the business corridor within the SUBA area. We planned to have eight clean-ups, we did however have four clean ups in the SUBA area. In addition to these cleanups there was a collaboration between SUBA, the Salinas Chamber of Commerce, Blue Zones and Amor Salinas to do a cleanups.

Our main focus was on small cleanups that were done directly by business owners.

Those were done individually by over 7 businesses on a biweekly basis.

2023/2024 Goals

SUBA's goal this year was to continue to establish SUBA's Relationship with its members and assist and provide resources for those who would like to utilize them. It has been a significant improvement over the past five years in providing much needed resources to our businesses.

However, the change in the economy is very evident as we see vacancies throughout the area and the closing of many small businesses in the SUBA area. SUBA built more
partnerships in order to better serve its members. None are so pronounced as the partnerships with the Salinas Valley Chamber of Commerce, the Monterey County Business
Council, SEE Monterey and Get Virtual from UC Santa Cruz.

SUBA was instrumental in assisting many businesses;
however, SUBA will continue to strive to establish more profound relationships with all its businesses. SUBA held 3 business mixers throughout the year in addition to the ribbon cuttings we had. Two were in conjunction with the Salinas Valley Chamber of Commerce. SUBA will continue to
collaborate with the City of Salinas Community Development Department and Public Works Department, Salinas Police
Department to enhance and promote SUBA's business area.

SUBA has developed partnerships with various non-profit and for-profit organizations and businesses to further develop our training/workshops. Our partnership with the City of Salinas has developed more strongly and are working closely to further develop our organization’s capacity.

SUBA is a member of the Alisal Vibrancy Plan Steering Committee, and its director is part of the Vision Salinas General Plan Steering Committee. It is important for SUBA to integrate into shaping a vision for our area. The Alisal is a great place to live, to shop, and it is essential for the City of Salinas.

Marketing and Promotions
SUBA expanded communication with the membership by doing a few surveys and analyzed this data to better serve our members this past year. SUBA will work with other stakeholder groups, by expanding use of electronic communication and social media through webinars and workshops. These past four Fiscal Years we have marketed throughout the year most of our businesses and our industries on a continuous basis in various manners that included holiday promotions, event promotions and marketing through social media and radio. SUBA will continue to focus in these areas this upcoming Fiscal year.

SUBA met door to door with many businesses-over 1,613 businesses were visited. (This means many businesses were visited various times throughout the year.) SUBA will continue to develop its relationship with other business organizations such as Negozee, El Pajaro CDC, Mission Community Services Corporation, Salinas Valley Chamber of Commerce and others to promote small businesses and cultural events in the SUBA area and beyond. SUBA will continue developing more advertising opportunities for our members in good standing to promote and market their businesses through social media marketing purchased by SUBA and other means. We will continue our partnership with Get Virtual from UC Santa Cruz to create websites and social media avenues for our businesses. There is an allocation of time utilized by staff in this program within the budget. Our goals for the upcoming Fiscal Year for Marketing and Promotions:

Goal 1A- Provide Social Media Marketing for 200 SUBA businesses throughout the 23/24 Fiscal Year

Business Resources
SUBA will work directly with lenders, business organizations, non-profit groups, businesses, and governmental agencies to provide SUBA members with information and training on financing opportunities to improve their businesses. We partnered with organizations such as the El Pajaro CDC, Negozee, Mission Community Services Corporation, Salinas Valley Chamber of Commerce, Arranque Empresial, Monterey County Workforce Development Board, and Cal Coastal SBDC as well as others to make certain we offer members opportunities for training and gathering of information. In addition, we have begun conversations with TMC Community

Safety
SUBA staff continued working with the City’s
Code Enforcement and County Health
Department along with many business members
to address and improve monitoring of city and
county health and safety codes throughout our
business area. SUBA facilitated community
meetings with business owners and Salinas
Police Department. We coordinated 4 meetings
this year. Additionally, we worked with Code

SUBA worked with the police department to deal with noise complaints, trash complaints, abandoned vehicle complaints and public nuisance complaints. SUBA worked with the City of Salinas’ Salinas Connect App to deal with parking issues, graffiti issues, trash issues.

Beautification & Cleaning
SUBA worked to implement projects
aimed at the beautification of the
business corridor within the SUBA area.

We continued to monitor and work on
plans to provide more regular clean ups
and work with the city staff to further
opportunities to clean within our
business area. The focus this upcoming
year is to have more regular clean ups in
conjunction with clean ups that the City
of Salinas is doing through the Alisal
Vibrancy Plan and Clean California Grant
project. A new program was started this
fiscal year. The new program is the
Alisal Ambassador Program. Currently
this includes 7 Ambassadors made up of businesses in the Alisal area. The budget includes the allocation of time utilized by staff in this program. The following goals are in our 23/24 Fiscal Year for Beautification and Clean Ups:

Goal 1D- Create a SUBA Beautification and Art Project Plan for the SUBA BIA for 23/24 Fiscal Year. (This plan will be coordinated with the City of Salinas to complement the Clean California Grant that is focusing on art and clean ups in our area and will focus on coordinating with businesses.)

SUBA participated with the City of Salinas in the Alisal Vibrancy Plan throughout this fiscal year and was on the interview panel to choose the artists for the underpasses on E. Market/101 Freeway, E. Alisal/101 Freeway, and S.

Those partners included the City of Salinas, Amor Salinas, Blue Zones of Monterey County, Downtown Streets Team, the Salinas Valley Chamber of Commerce and many of our small businesses. In addition we held our first Ambassador Clean up. We had 6 Ambassadors participate and collected 24 bags of trash during the year from their self- reporting. We had three large clean ups took they took place in the Summer and Fall of 2023 and in the late Winter of 2024. Our large Spring Clean Up was cancelled due to weather issues.

ANNUAL SUMMARY

SUBA assisted in promoting small business members’ participation in training and educational opportunities made available through all the partners mentioned above. This past year there were 443 businesses that participated in various trainings from our classes and webinars that were offered to our members that included webinars and in-person workshops from SUBA, BBB, and Arranque Empresial.

Additionally, many of our partners including Monterey County Works, El Pajaro CDC, SBDC and Mission Community Services Corporation and others that we did not track.

SUBA assisted directly with filling out applications, gathering needed financial information, preparing financial information, scanning
needed information, and aiding
throughout the grant and loan
application and loan forgiveness
process, including the ERC
program.

Many of our businesses received
information from SUBA directly
and indirectly regarding many of
the grants and loans available
and either they themselves
applied and called SUBA
regarding questions they had
and/or had their Accountants fill
out the applications for them.

SUBA is appreciative that the
Federal Government, State Government, local government recognized the need in the last two last years and hope that further assistance comes forward as we see an ever-changing economy. As inflation and online competition continues, we need to continue assisting these businesses through these grants and

loans that will allow for many of our businesses to survive. However, having said that, it has been a very slow spring for many of our businesses and many of them have informed SUBA that they may have to shut down. We have vacancies in the SUBA area which is unprecedented and have had a lot more than usual businesses close this past fiscal year.

SUBA met with City Staff throughout the year to address code enforcement issues and policies regarding unpermitted vendors, trash, unhoused issues, catering trucks as well as crime issues. This is ongoing and we will continue assisting with this role.

SUBA worked in partnership with various agencies and non-profit groups such as Building Healthy Communities, Center for Community Advocacy, CCCIL, Blue Zones, CRLA, SVMH, Salinas Valley Chamber of Commerce, Negozee, Arranque Empresial, Mission Community Services Corporation, CalCoastal- SBDC, El Pajaro CDC, Monterey County Business Council, Monterey County Visitors and Convention Bureau (SEE Monterey) and other partners to address the barriers in the community that impact the quality of life for East Salinas residents but in particular our businesses. SUBA will continue working alongside these organizations for the betterment of quality of life for businesses and residents in East Salinas.

SUBA held three safety meetings with business members and with the Salinas Police Department and have continued to work in collaboration in addressing the ongoing concerns of members regarding crime and safety of the residents and businesses including homelessness and various code enforcement issues.

Additionally, SUBA and many businesses utilized the Salinas Connect App to report graffiti, trash and parking issues.

SUBA and its Board assisted in promoting special events such as a Holiday Sales and Valentine’s Day Sales along with Small Business Saturday. This past year we collaborated and partnered with the Salinas Valley Chamber of Commerce in order to create more synergy around small businesses. We held three combined mixers where many businesses participated in. We expect this partnership to continue in the year to come.

SUBA processed 28 Temporary Land Use Permits for participating business owners in good standing this year. This is an approximate value of $4,600 to SUBA members. This was for Valentine's Day and Mother's Day, and we also processed a few for other occasions in the year.

SUBA promoted Small Shop Saturday and marketing for Holiday Sales in the SUBA area as mentioned before. SUBA had 27 businesses that participated in Small Shop Saturday directly and many others that did so indirectly. SUBA utilized radio, social media and live videos promoting the Small Shop Saturday event.

SUBA continued to expand the SUBA "branding" campaign to help increase SUBA's visibility and name recognition within and outside of the SUBA District through social media. SUBA will continue developing this branding effort.

SUBA sent out thirty-eight newsletter updates through emails for an approximate total of 10,500. In addition, there were direct emails sent to businesses related to information related to workshops,

meetings and events and community updates. Lastly, there were 9 robocalls made throughout the year related to workshops, events, meetings or special promotions.

SUBA responded to members' request for information about the City's graffiti abatement program and information regarding services provided by the code enforcement department along with unpermitted vendor concerns and issues brought to SUBA. SUBA worked with the City of Salinas Finance Department and Community Development Department to keep the BID roster updated and helped maintain the City's assessment procedures. Although this has been a true challenge.

SUBA held several events promoting the SUBA area this year including the following:

5th Annual Small Business Saturday, where over 27 businesses participated in. The event drew hundreds of people to the Alisal. The event was promoted through radio and through social media.

Thanksgiving Basket Giveaway to 100 families. The basket consisted of beans, rice, cooking oil, and other staples such as vegetables and canned goods, along with a large chicken. We did this in partnership with Radio Joya and a number of our businesses and sponsors.

We provided a few ribbon cuttings that included ribbon cuttings Kayros Multiservices, Sanborn Pharmacy, BKM Healthy Foods. SUBA also held several mixers throughout the year that included one at Leal’s Bakery, Salinas Pizza and participated with the Salinas Valley Chamber of Commerce on promoting and putting these together.

Challenges

SUBA 's primary challenge continues to be accomplishing a work plan with few staff, trying to encompass all that is needed within the SUBA Area with declining financial resources. Although this year with the help of a partnership with the Monterey County Business Council-SUBA had assistance with workshops, and outreach with the hiring of Jose Barajas. However, the huge issue for SUBA is the manner in which the assessment is collected. The City of Salinas moved four years ago to have SUBA collect the assessments directly. This has diminished the collection amounts and percentages. In Fiscal Year 2018-2019 SUBA assessments collected $70,819 and in Fiscal Year 2019/2020 SUBA assessments collected $67,440. This past year in Fiscal Year 2023/2024 SUBA assessments collected was $42,448.

Quite a significant decrease in assessments collected. At this point SUBA is not asking for a change in the collection of assessments nor of a change in timeline to when assessments are collected.

Although SUBA has been able to build trust with many SUBA Members, the issue of payment continues.

Low collection rate of assessments is a large challenge.

Approximately 60 percent of assessment amounts were uncollected for FY 23/24.

Of the 518 businesses billed for a total assessment value of $105,521- $63,073 was not collected.

Of those businesses, none were sent to collections.

In total SUBA collected approximately 40% of the businesses total assessed value. SUBA received a total of $42,448 in assessments for the year. In other words, $5,081 less than last year received.

(We will continue sending out billing in the hopes we collect a bit more assessments.)

Grant and Fundraising opportunities for SUBA have not transpired.

SUBA will continue to focus on looking for grant opportunities for SUBA and focus on creating donation and sponsorship opportunities for the organization.

We certainly had several challenges and none greater than making certain businesses stay in business.

Inflation and an ever-changing economy with customers looking to purchase from Amazon and other online retailers the economy is truly changing for our small businesses. This past year we billed on three occasions all the SUBA businesses. Our plan for next year would be to bill four times and send out the billing in both electronic format and in paper format. All the years in the past it has only been done through the mail in paper format. Additionally, SUBA plans on applying to several grants in the hopes that we can attain a few. Lastly, SUBA plans to have at least 3 fundraisers this upcoming year to look at raising more funds.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

DATE: SEPTEMBER 24, 2024
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
FROM: DAVID JACOBS, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
BY: ADRIANA ROBLES, CITY ENGINEER
TITLE: SANITARY SEWER DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEE UPDATE

AMENDMENT

RECOMMENDED MOTION:

A motion to approve a Resolution amending the Sanitary Sewer Development Impact Fee previously approved through Resolution No. 22942.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Requesting approval of a resolution amending the Sanitary Sewer Development Impact Fee approved by City Council through Resolution No. 22942 . The Sanitary Sewer Development Impact Fee schedule erroneously included the term “per 1000 square foot” instead of “per square foot” for the commercial and industrial fees. The updated fee shall be effective December 1, 2024.

BACKGROUND:

On April 23, 2024, pursuant to California Government Code Sections 66000-66008 and Article V of Chapter 9 of the Salinas Municipal Code, the Salinas City Council approved Resolution No. 22942 updating the fee schedule for the sanitary sewer development impact fees. The updated fee schedule became effective on July 1, 2024.

A clerical error in nexus study erroneously identified the proposed fee schedule for the commercial and industrial fee units as “per 1000 square foot of building area” instead of “per square foot of building area”.

The corrected Sanitary Sewer Development Impact Fee Schedule shall be amended to rea d as follows:

Residential: $ 1.2847 per square foot of building area Commercial: $ 1.1215 per square foot of building area
Industrial: $ 0.5608 per square foot of building area

Public Notice
A sixty (60) day public hearing notice for the amendment of the Sanitary Sewer Development Impact Fee Update was published in a local newspaper on September 5th and 12th, 2024.

Page | 2
Outreach
Notification of the proposed amendment to the Sanitary Sewer Development Impact Fee and public hearing was emailed to Salinas Chamber of Commerce, the Salinas United Business Association, the Central Coast Builders Association, the Future Growth Area developers and other local developers on September 9, 2024. No comments have been to date.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

Not a Project. City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15378 and 15061(b)(3).

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

Updating Development Impact Fees to mitigate impacts from development on existing sewer systems is consistent with the Council values of Fiscal Responsibility, Service and Responsiveness and Council Goals and Strategies of Economic Development, Housing, Infrastructure, and Public Safety by investing in existing facilities and infrastructure, reducing City expenditures to address impacts due to growth, and by providing adequate funding for improvement needed to allow for growth.

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

Public Works staff has consulted with other City Departments to develop the recommendation herein, including Administration, Finance, and Legal. Should the City Council approve the recommendation, Public Works will continue to collaborate with these depa rtments, along with Community Development.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact related to this item at this time. Imposing and updating development impact fees allows the City to be more fiscally responsible and sustainable.

I INTRODUCTION
The City of Salinas ("City"), a political subdivision of the State of California, authorized DTA to prepare a nexus study (the “Fee Study”) to justify the proposed Development Impact Fee (“DIF”) to be imposed on new development. The fee to be collected will provide a source of revenue to fund public improvements that will mitigate the impacts of such new development. This Fee Study will meet the requirements of California Government Code Section 66001 known as the "Mitigation Fee Act" and will achieve the following goals related to said section:
▪ Ensure the DIF does not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of pro viding the service for which the fee is imposed; and
▪ Provide a clear and concise document that will serve as the basis for the proposed fee levels.

A DIF is a one -time charge imposed by a local agency on new development to recover, or partially recover, the estimated reasonable cost of providing public facilities needed to mitigate the impacts of such new develop ment. Further discussion on the legal limitations related to imposing the DIF is discussed in Section II, "Legal Requirements."
This Fee Study and the resulting fee structure will focus on the justification for imposing the impact fee to fund, or partially fund, sewer facilities necessary to mitigate the impacts of new development. The fee will be charged to new development within the City limits and development within the City’s Sphere of Influence that desire to tie into the City sanitary sewer system.

This Fee Study uses a planning horizon of 2035 for all projections of demographic growth and the future facilities needed. To ensure the proposed fee structure meets the nexus requirements of Section 66001 and ensure the fees are proportionate to the impacts generated by the various land uses, this Fee Study uses an Equivalent Dwelling Square Foot ("ESF") method to fairly allocate costs to new development and determine the appropriate fee levels that will provide a source of funds to pay for the proposed facilities. A more detailed discussion regarding the ESF methodology can be found in Section IV herein.

In addition, the fee for residential property is then calculated on a per square foot basis pursuant to AB 602 which was approved by the California State Legislature and signed by Governor Newsom in 2021. A more detailed discussion regarding AB 602 can be found in Section II(B) herein.

Section VI of this Fee Study provides fee calculations based on demographics provided by the City and a detailed analysis of facility needs (the “Needs List”) as shown in the City’s Sanitary Sewer M aster Plan dated May 2023 (the “Master Plan”) prepared by Wallace Group, (“Wallace”) and adopted by the Salinas City Council on May 2, 2023 (Resolution No. 22648). For purposes of complying with AB 602, the Master Plan is considered to be the Capital Improvement Plan (“CIP”).

An administrative component equal to 2.0% of the total fee amount has been added to pay for the City's overhead costs incurred in the administration of the fee program. Table I-1 summarizes the proposed Fee structure, including the administrative component.

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS

City of Salinas August 28, 2024

II LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
The City has identified the need to levy an impact fee to pay for future sewer facilities. This fee will finance facilities on the Needs Lists at levels identified by the City as appropriate for new development. Upon the adoption of the Fee Study and required legal documents by the City Council, all new development will be required to pay its “fair share” of the cost of facilities on the Needs List through the fee . The fee is established pursuant to AB 1600 as described below.

Prior to World War II, development in California was held responsible for very little of the cost of public infrastructure. Public improvements were financed primarily through jurisdictional general funds and utility charges. It was not uncommon during this period for speculators to subdivide tracts of land without providing any public improvements, expecting the closest city to eventually annex a project and provide public improvements and services.

However, starting in the late 1940s, the use of impact fees grew with the increased planning and regulation of new development. During the 1960s and 1970s, the California Courts broadened the right of local government to impose fees on developers for public improvements that were not located on project sites.

More recently, with the passage of Proposition 13, the limits on general revenues for new infrastructure have resulted in new development being held responsible for a greater share of public improvements, and both the use and levels of impact fees have grown substantially. Higher fee levels were undoubtedly driven in part by a need to offset the decline in funds for infrastructure development from other sources.

The levy of impact fees is one authorized method of financing the public facilities necessary to mitigate the impacts of new development, as the levy of such fees provides funding to maintain an agency's existing level of service for an increased service population. A fee is “a monetary exaction, other than a tax or special assessment, which is charged by a local agency to the applicant in connection with approval of a development project for the purpose of defraying all or a portion of the cost of public facilities related to the development project...” (California Government Code, Section 66000). A fee may be levied for each type of capital improvement required for new development, with the payment of the fee occurring prior to the beginning of construction of a dwelling unit or non-residential building (or prior to the expansion of existing buildings of these types). Fees are often levied at final map recordation, issuance of a certificate of occupancy, or more commonly, at building permit issuance. Actual fees will be collected as prescribed in the Salinas Municipal Code.

Assembly Bill (“AB”) 1600, which created Section 66000 et. seq. of the Government Code, was enacted by the State of California in 1987. This Fee Study is intended to meet the nexus or benefit requirements of AB 1600, which mandates that there is a nexus between fees imposed, the use of the fees, and the development projects on which the fees are imposed.

A Government Code Section 66001
In 2006, Government Code Section 66001 was amended to clarify that a fee cannot include costs attributable to existing deficiencies, but can fund costs used to maintain the existing level of service or meet an adopted level of service that is consistent with the general plan.

Section 66000 et seq. of the Government Code requires all public agencies to satisfy the following 4 SECTION II

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS

City of Salinas August 28, 2024
Development Impact Fee Justification Study

www.FinanceDTA.com
requirements when establishing, increasing or imposing a fee as a condition of new development:

1. Identify the purpose of the fee. [Government Code Section 66001(a)(1)]

2. Identify the use to which the fee will be put. [Government Code Section 66001(a)(2)]

3. Determine that there is a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development on which the fee is to be imposed. [Government Code Section 66001(a)(3)]

4. Determine how there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is to be imposed . [Government Code Section 66001(a)(4)]

5. Discuss how there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed.

The sections below present each of the five requirements listed above as they relate to the imposition of the proposed fees.

1. PURPOSE OF THE FEE [GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 66001(A)(1)] New residential and non-residential development within the City will generate additional residents and employees who will require additional public facilities. Land for these facilities will have to be acquired and public facilities and equipment will have to be expanded, constructed or purchased to meet this increased demand.

This Fee Study has been prepared in response to the projected direct and cumulated effect of future development. Each new development will contribute to the need for new public facilities.

Without future development many of the new public facilities on the Needs Lists would not be necessary as the existing facilities are adequate for the City’s present population. In instances where facilities would be built regardless of new development, the costs of such facilities have been allocated to new and existing development based on their respective level of benefit.

The proposed impact fee will be charged to all future development, irrespective of location, in the City. Even future “infill” development projects contribute to impacts on public facilities because they are an interactive component of a much greater universe of development located throughout the City. First, the property owners and/or the tenants associated with any new development in the City can be expected to place additional demands on City facilities funded by the fee. Second, these property owners and tenants are dependent on and, in fact, may not have chosen to utilize their development, except for residential, retail, employment and recreational opportunities located nearby on other existing and future development. Third, the availability of residents, employees, and customers throughout the City has a growth-inducing impact without which some of the “infill” development would not occur. As a result, all development projects in the City contribute to the cumulative impacts of development.

The impact fees will be used for the acquisition, installation, and construction of public facilities identified on the Needs Lists and appropriate administrative costs to mitigate the direct and 5 SECTION II

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS

City of Salinas August 28, 2024
Development Impact Fee Justification Study

www.FinanceDTA.com
cumulative impacts of new development in the City.

2. THE USE TO WHICH THE FEE IS TO BE PUT [GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 66001(A)(2)] The fee will be used for the acquisition, installation, and construction of the public facilities identified on the Needs Lists, included in Section V of the Fee Study and other appropriate costs to mitigate the direct and cumulative impacts of new development in the City. The fee will provide a source of revenue to the City to allow for the acquisition, installation, and construction of public facilities, which in turn will maintain the current standard of service, preserve the quality of life in the City and protect the health, safety, and welfare of the existing and future residents, visitors, and employees.

3. DETERMINE THAT THERE IS A REASONABLE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE FEE’S USE AND

THE TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT PROJECT UPON WHICH THE FEE IS IMPOSED (BENEFIT RELATIONSHIP) [GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 66001(A)(3)]
It is the projected direct and cumulative effect of future development that has prompted the preparation of the Fee Study . Each development will contribute to the need for new public facilities. Without future development, the City would have no need to construct many of the public facilities on the Needs Lists. For all other facilities, the costs have been allocated to both existing and new development based on their level of benefit. Even future “infill” development projects, which may be adjacent to existing facilities, further burden existing public facilities.

Consequently, all new development within the City, irrespective of location, contributes to the direct and cumulative impacts of development on public facilities and creates the need for new facilities to accommodate growth.

The fees will be expended for the acquisition, installation, and construction of the public facilities identified on the Needs Lists and other authorized uses, as that is the purpose for which the Fee is collected. As previously stated, all new development creates either a direct impact on public facilities or contributes to the cumulative impact on public facilities. Moreover, this impact is generally equalized among all types of development because it is the increased demands for public facilities created by the future residents and employees that create the impact upon existing facilities.

For the foregoing reasons, new development benefits from the acquisition, construction, and installation of the facilities on the Needs Lists.

4. DETERMINE HOW THERE IS A REASONABLE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE NEED FOR THE

PUBLIC FACILITY AND THE TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT PROJECT UPON WHICH THE FEE IS IMPOSED (IMPACT RELATIONSHIP) [GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 66001(A)(4)] As previously stated, all new development within the City, irrespective of location, contributes to the direct and cumulative impacts of development on public facilities and creates the need for new facilities to accommodate growth. Without future development, many of the facilities on the Needs Lists would not be necessary. For certain other facilities, the costs have been allocated to 6 SECTION II

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS

City of Salinas August 28, 2024
Development Impact Fee Justification Study

www.FinanceDTA.com
both existing and new development based on their level of benefit.

For the reasons presented herein, there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facilities included on the Needs List and all new development within the City.

5. THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE AMOUNT OF THE FEE AND THE COST OF THE PUBLIC

FACILITIES ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE DEVELOPMENT UPON WHICH THE FEE IS IMPOSED (“ROUGH PROPORTIONALITY” RELATIONSHIP) [GOVERNMENT CODE 66001(A)] As set forth above, all new development in the City impacts public facilities . Moreover, each individual development project and its related increase in population and/or employment, along with the cumulative impacts of all development in the City, will adversely impact existing facilities.

Thus, imposition of the Fee to finance the facilities on the Needs Lists is an efficient, practical, and equitable method of permitting development to proceed in a responsible manner.

New development impacts facilities directly and cumulatively . In fact, without any future development, the acquisition, construction, and/or installation of many of the facilities on the Needs Lists would not be necessary as existing City facilities are adequate. Even new development located adjacent to existing facilities will utilize and benefit from facilities on the Needs List.

The proposed fee amounts are roughly proportional to the impacts resulting from new development based on the analysis in Section IV. Thus, there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the Fee and the cost of the facilities.

Identifying these items will enable an impact fee to meet the nexus and rough proportionality requirements established by previous court cases. These findings are discussed in the nexus test for each proposed fee element as presented in Section VI. Current State financing and fee assessment requirements only allow new development to pay for its fair share of new facilities’ costs. Any current deficiencies resulting from the needs of existing development must be funded through other sources. Therefore, a key element to establish legal impact fees is to determine what share of the benefit or cost of a particular improvement can be equitably assigned to existing development, even if that improvement has not yet been constructed. By removing this factor, the true impact of new development can be assessed and equitable fees assigned.

B Assembly Bill (“AB”) 602
The impact fees included herein were circumscribed by the requirements of AB 602, which was approved by the California State Legislature and signed by Governor Newsom in 2021. Among the significant impacts of AB 602 are the following:
▪ On or after January 1, 2022, fee justification studies must identify the existing Level of Service (“LOS”) for each public facility, identify the proposed new LOS, and (if proposed new LOS is greater than existing LOS) include an explanation of why the new LOS is necessary. ▪ For housing development projects, nexus studies adopted after July 1, 2022, must calculate the amount of fees based on square footage of proposed units of the development, unless the local agency demonstrates that another metric is more appropriate. The b ill would require 7 SECTION II

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS

City of Salinas August 28, 2024
Development Impact Fee Justification Study

www.FinanceDTA.com
that a “local agency that calculated fees proportionally to the square footage of the proposed units be deemed to have used a valid method to establish a reasonable relationship between the fee charged and the burden posed by development.” This would also apply to multi-family residences.
▪ The bill also requires the Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”), on or before January 1, 2024, to create an impact fee nexus study template that may be used by local jurisdictions to calculate their fees. The bill requires that the templ ate include a method of calculating the feasibility of housing being built with a given fee level. The template must be completed by 2024, and local jurisdictions will have the option (it will not be required) to use the HCD template.
▪ The bill authorizes any member of the public, including an applicant for a development project, to submit evidence that the city, county, or other local agency had failed to comply with the Mitigation Fee Act. The bill requires the legislative body of the city, county, or other local agency to consider any timely submitted evidence and authorize the legislative body to change or adjust the proposed fee or fee increase, as specified. ▪ If a nexus study supports the increase of an existing fee, the local agency shall review the assumption of the nexus study supporting the original fee and evaluate the amount of the fees collected under the original fee.
▪ Large jurisdictions (county population greater than 250,000) and cities within those counties must adopt a capital improvement plan (“CIP”) as part of the nexus study. ▪ Nexus studies shall be updated at least every 8 years from the period beginning January 1, 2023.

III DEMOGRAPHICS
In order to determine the public facilities needed to serve new development as well as establish fee amounts to fund such facilities, the City provided DTA with projections of future residential unit growth and future non -residential building square footage within the City . For purposes of projecting future residential and non-residential growth, the City categorizes developable land uses as residential property and non -residential property . Residential and non -residential property is further categorized into subclasses as shown in Table III-1. Based on these designations, DTA established fees for these land use categories to acknowledge the difference in impacts resulting from various land uses and to make the resulting fee program implementable . A summary of the land use classes utilized in this Fee Study are included in Table III-1. Information shown in the table below is based on the City’s 2002 General Plan (the “General Plan”).

Please note that for purposes of this Fee Study, any future ADU, as described in Table III -1 above, is assumed to be included in the buildout projections, but some of these units may not be required to pay an impact fee. As described in Section VIII herein, pursuant to Government Code Section 65852.2(f), ADUs are exempt from incurring impact fees from local agencies, special districts, and water corporations if such unit is less than 750 square feet. If an ADU is 750 square feet or larger, impact fee s shall be charged proportionately in relation to the square footage of the ADU to the square footage of the primary dwelling unit. In addition, the DIF shall not be applicable to any ADU created within the existing space of a single - family residence or accessory structure, including, but not limited to, a studio, pool house, or other similar structure.

The following summarizes the future development figures used in calculating the impact fee.

A Future Development Within the City (2024-2035)
As discussed in the introduction above, the time horizon used for the fee is through the year 2035. These fee calculations rely on the development information provided by the City related to residential and non- residential building square feet through 2035 as described below.

A.1 Residential Development
The City estimates there will be 17,569 future residential units built within the City from the year 2024 through 2035.

In order to project future residential square footage, DTA utilized existing average square feet per residential unit data as provided by the City, using building permit data provided by City staff from 2018 to 2023, DTA calculated the average residential square footage for residential unit s constructed in the City within the past five years, as shown in Table III-2 below.

PROJECTIONS

City of Salinas August 28, 2024

IV EQUIVALENT SQUARE FOOT PROJECTIONS
California Government Code §66001(4)(b) requires there to be a "...reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility, or portion of the public facility, attributable to the development on which the fee is imposed." Additional sewage volume generated by new development requires expansion of existing sewer systems. Therefore, sewage volumes generated by growth in the various land uses would be a reasonable variable to measure sewer dem and. To ensure a reasonable relationship is maintained within the proposed fee structure, this Fee Study uses an equivalent square foot (“ESF”) methodology. This approach establishes, for given land uses, a method of comparison of that land use to a baseline land use, utilizing a common demand variable. A demand variable is a measurable factor directly related to the size and cost of the public facility to be financed (“Demand Variable”). The Demand Variable in this study is the sewage generation rate for the various land uses (i.e., gallons per day (“GPD”)) per dwelling unit for residential property and per 1,000 building square feet for non-residential property. To conform to the requirements of AB 602, the Demand Variable for residential property is converted to GPD per square foot.

For the residential land use, the sewage generated per household, in GPD, is divided by the average square feet per household from Table III -3 to determine the residential sewage generation per day per square foot. The ESF Factor for each land use is deter mined by dividing the GPD per square foot values by the baseline GPD per square foot for the residential category.

V PROPOSED FACILITIES
Expected future development within the City will generate impacts to the City’s sewer system in terms of sewage conveyance capacity and pump station capacity. The improvements that are necessary to mitigate the impacts of new development throughout the City will include new sewer pipelines and pump station improvements. These improvements will benefit both existing and future development. Facility costs and descriptions were provided in the City of Salinas, Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update, May 2023, prepared by Wallace Group. Furthermore, Wallace Group provided a summary of project cost allocations to existing and new development, as shown in Tables 1, 2 and 3 of Appendix A herein, “Summary of Capital Improvement Costs.” For purposes of complying with AB 602, the Master Plan is considered to be the CIP.

The need for projects listed in Appendix A, Table 1 (City of Salinas Future Sewer CIP Incremental Cost Summary Based on Future Flow Diameter) are driven solely by the demand by future development for additional capacity. If there were no future development the current pipe capacity would be adequate to handle existing flows. In order to provide additional capacity for future development, the exi sting pipelines will need to be abandoned and replaced by larger diameter pipes that can provide the capacity to handle flows from both existing and future developmen t. The total project cost for each future CIP project is based on the larger replacement pipe size. The fair share cost allocation to future development is the cost to provide a pipeline that would have the capacity to handle flows from future development only. For instance, the first project listed in the table, “San Juan Grade,” indicates an 8-inch pipeline would be required to convey flows from future development only, while the project calls for a 12 -inch pipeline that provides capacity for both existin g and future development. Therefore, the cost allocated to future development for 8-inch diameter San Juan Grade project from Table 1 is equal to $2,394,000. The total project cost for the 12 -inch diameter project is $2,982,000, leaving $588,000 allocated to existing development. The total cost allocated to new development is shown as $35,306,000.

Appendix A, Table 2 (City of Salinas Existing Sewer Capital Improvement Program ) lists 31 conveyance projects that will provide capacity for both existing and future development. The project costs are allocated between existing and new development by percentage of total average daily flow for each project. The total project cost allocated to future development is $23,518,747.

Appendix A, Table 3 (City of Salinas Existing Lift Stations Capital Improvement Program) lists 11 lift station projects that will provide capacity for both existing and future development. The project costs are allocated between existing and future development by percentage of total average daily flow for each project. The total project cost allocated to future development is $11,124,994.

The costs from Tables 1 through 3 in Appendix A are summarized in Table V-1 below:

AB 602 requires “that the Nexus Study identify the existing level of service for each public facility, identify the proposed new level of service, and include an explanation of why the new level of service is necessary.” For purposes of this Fee Study, the level of service is defined as the capacity to collect and treat sewage generated from both existing and new development. This Fee Study determines sewage flows based on the same sewage generation factors used for both existing and new development.

Therefore, the level of service is the same for both existing and new development.

VI FEE CALCULATION
The section below presents the calculations used to determine the proposed sewer impact fee based upon the demographic data presented in Section III “Demographics” and the proposed capital improvement costs presented in Section V “Proposed Facilities,” herein.

Table VI-1 below illustrates how the sewer facilities fee will meet the requirements of AB1600 with regard to the use of the fee, the type of development funded, or partially funded by the fee revenue, the reasonable relationship to the need for the facilities and the proportionality requirements.

Table VI-1: Sewer Facilities
AB 1600 Code
Section Description Justification
66001(a)(1) Identify the purpose of the Fee.

To provide a revenue source that will pay for the construction of sewer projects that will be used to mitigate the impacts of new development in the City.
66001(a)(2) Identify the use to which the fee is to
be put.

Revenue from this fee will be used to construct new sewer facilities that will be used to provide general sewer collection and treatment services.
66001(a)(3)
Demonstrate how there is a
reasonable relationship between the
fee’s use and the type of
development project on which the fee
is imposed.

New residential and non-residential development will
generate additional residents and employees that will
increase the demand for sewer facilities. Sewer fees collected from new development will be used exclusively for
construction-related costs associated with these projects. 66001(a)(4)
Demonstrate how there is a
reasonable relationship between the
need for the public facilities and the
type of development project on which
the fee is imposed.

New residential and non-residential development within the City will generate additional residents and employees that will increase the need to collect and treat sewage generated by such new development. New sewer pipelines and treatment facilities are needed to collect and treat sewer generated from new development in the City.
66001(b)
Demonstrate how there is a
reasonable relationship between the
amount of the fee and the cost of the
public facility.

The cost of the proposed facilities are based on projected sewer generation from the various land uses. The amount of the fee for each land use is calculated based on the relative contribution of City-wide sewer flow from each land use.

The residential and non-residential demographic data, including residential dwelling units and square feet and non-residential square feet are discussed in Section III herein. The total costs listed in the City’s Needs List and costs allocated to future development of $69,949,742 are shown in Table V-1 above.

As described in Section IV above, an ESF methodology is used to calculate the fee for each of the various land uses. The cost per ESF allocated to future development is determined by dividing the total cost allocated to new development shown below in Table VI-2 by the total future ESFs as shown in Table IV-2 above.

IMPLEMENTATION OF FEE SCHESFLE

City of Salinas August 28, 2024

VII IMPLEMENTATION OF FEE SCHEDULE
In addition to the legal requirements covered in Section II, there are a number of recommendations for the adoption and administration of the DIF presented in this report. All recommendations presented in this section are based on the Mitigation Fee Act (Government Code §66000 et seq.), also referred to as the “Act,” which provides specific requirements for establishing and administering DIF programs. The Act also mandates procedures for administering impact fee programs, such as the collection and accounting of impact fees, refunds, mandatory updates, and reporting requirements.

At the time the City imposes an impact fee, Government Code 66020 requires a written statement of the amount of the fee and a written notice of a 90 -day period during which the imposition of the fee can be protested. Prior to the enactment of Section 66020, a developer could not challenge the validity of fees imposed on a residential development without refusing to pay them . Under these circumstances, developers were required to pay disputed fees before they could be challenged . Section 66020 was drafted to correct that problem.

The various subparts of Section 66020 allow for a procedure that permits a developer to pay the fees under protest, obtain the relevant building permit, and then proceed with the project while pursuing an action to challenge the fees. If the action is successful, the fees will be refunded with interest. However, failure to protest imposition of the fee during the allowed period may deprive the fee payer of the right to any subsequent legal challenges . Any challenges to be filed must be submitted within 90 days of enactment. The subsequent sections provide specific guidelines in implementing the DIF.

Please refer to Section 9-44 of the City’s municipal code for any additional exemptions and credits related to the development impact fees.

A The Collection of the DIF
According to Government Code Section 66007, any local agency that imposes any fees or charges on a residential development for the construction of public improvements or facilities shall not require the payment of those fees or charges, notwithstanding any other provision of law, unti l the date of the final inspection or the date the Certificate of Occupancy is issued, whichever occurs first.

However, utility service fees may be collected at the time an application for utility service is received . If the residential development contains more than one dwelling, the local agency may determine whether the fees or charges shall be paid on a pro rata basis for each dwelling when it receives its final inspection or Certificate of Occupancy, on a pro rata basis when a certain percentage of the dwellings have received their final inspection or Certificate of Occupancy, or on a lump sum basis when the f irst dwelling in the development receives its final inspection or Certificate of Occupancy, whichever of the three occur first.

An exception allows the DIF to be collected at an earlier time if they will be used to reimburse the agency for expenditures previously made or for public improvements or facilities for which money has already been appropriated. If any fee or charge specified is not fully paid prior to the issuance of a building permit for construction, the local agency issuing the building permit may require the property owner, or lessee if the lessee’s interest appears of record, as a condition of issuance of the building permit, to execute a contract to pay the fee or charge, or applicable portion. 19 SECTION VII

IMPLEMENTATION OF FEE SCHESFLE

City of Salinas August 28, 2024
Development Impact Fee Justification Study

www.FinanceDTA.com
Statutory restrictions in place for residential development at the time at which fees may be collected do not apply to non-residential development. In cases where the fees are not collected upon the issuance of building permits, Sections 6607(c)(1) and (2) provide that the City may require the property owner of a non-residential development to execute a contract to pay the fee, and subsequently record that contract as a lien against the property owner.

In addition, pursuant to Government Code Section 65852.2(f), ADUs are exempt from incurring impact fees from local agencies, special districts, and water corporations if such unit is less than 750 square feet.

If an ADU is 750 square feet or larger, impact fees shall be charged proportionately in relation to the square footage of the AD U to the square footage of the primary dwelling unit. Furthermore, the sewer capital improvement fee shall not be applicable to any ADU created within the existing space of a single- family residence or accessory structure, including, but not limited to, a studio, pool house, or other similar structure. Please note that for purposes of this Fee Study, future ADUs are included in the buildout projections, but some of these units may not be required to pay an impact fee. As a result, the City may not collect the full amount of costs as shown in the Needs Lists included herein.

B The Assignment and Expenditure of Fee Revenue
According to Section 66006, if a local agency requires the payment of a fee specified in connection with the approval of a development project, the local agency receiving the fee shall deposit it with the other fees for the improvement to be funded in a separate capital facilities account or fund in a manner to avoid any commingling of the fees with other revenues and funds of the local agency, except for temporary investments, and expend those fees solely for the purpose for which the fee was collected. Any interest income earned in the capital facilities account or fund shall also be deposited in that account or fund and shall be expended only for the purpose for which the fee was originally collected. Common practice is to maintain separate funds or accounts for impact fee revenues by facility category (i.e. , street and park improvements, but not for individual projects). DTA recommends the continuation of that approach.

C Exemptions, Reductions and Waivers
If a project has characteristics that indicate its impact on a particular public facility or infrastructure system will be significantly and permanently smaller than the average impact used to calculate impact fees in this Fee Study, the fees should be reduced accordingly. The City may decide to voluntarily waive or reduce the fees that would otherwise apply to a project to promote goals such as affordable housing or economic development. However, the implementation of this policy may not result in increa sed costs for other development projects and are allowed only if such costs are offset from other revenue sources.

D Developer Improvement Credits
If the City maintains a policy that requires a developer, as a condition of project approval, to construct facilities for which impact fees have been or will be charged, the impact fee imposed on that development project for that type of facility must be adjusted to reflect a credit for such dedication or construction .

Furthermore, the impact fee imposed on that development project for that type of facility must be adjusted to reflect a credit for the cost of the facilities or improvements constructed by the developer. If circumstances allow a developer to dedicate land, buildings, or other valuable considerations in lieu of 20 SECTION VII

IMPLEMENTATION OF FEE SCHESFLE

City of Salinas August 28, 2024
Development Impact Fee Justification Study

www.FinanceDTA.com
paying fees, the City maintains the discretion to accept or reject such offers and may negotiate the terms under which an offer would be accepted.

E Existing Development Credit
If a project involves the replacement, redevelopment , or intensification of previously existing development, impact fees should be applied only to the portion of the project which represents a net increase in demand for relevant facilities, applying the measure of demand used in this study to calculate that particular fee. Since residential service demand is normally estimated on the basis of demand per dwelling unit, an addition to a single-family dwelling unit typically would not be subject to an impact fee if it does not increase the number of dwelling units in the structure . In any project that results in a net increase in the number of dwelling units, the added units would normally be subjected to impact fees. A similar analysis can be applied to non -residential development using a measure of demand on which impact fees are based.

F Annual Reporting and Accounting of Fees
AB 1600 requires that both general law and charter cities account for every fee that they collect under its terms. Funds collected for each capital facility or service shall be deposited in separate accounts and not commingled with any other funds for other impact fees . While funds are accruing for individual capital facilities, the City must keep track of each fund and provide an annual report. Section 66006 requires that for each separate account or fund established, the local agency shall, within 180 days after the last day of each fiscal year, make available to the public the following information for the fiscal year:

1. A brief description of the type of fee in the account or fund;

2. The amount of the fee;

3. The beginning and ending balance of the account or fund;

4. The amount of the fees collected and interest earned;

5. An identification of each public improvement on which fees were expended and the amount of the expenditures on each improvement, including the total percentage of the cost of the public improvement that was funded with fees;

6. An identification of an approximate date by which the construction of the public improvement will commence if the local agency determines that sufficient funds have been collected to complete financing on an incomplete public improvement, as identified in Paragraph (2) of Subdivision (a) of Section 66001, and the public improvement remains incomplete;

7. A description of each interfund transfer or loan made from the account or fund, including the public improvement on which the transferred or loaned fees will be expended, and, in the case of an interfund loan, the date on which the loan will be repaid and the rate of interest that the account or fund will receive on the loan; and

8. The amount of refunds made pursuant To Subdivision (e) of Section 66001 and any allocations pursuant to Subdivision (f) of Section 66001.
21 SECTION VII

IMPLEMENTATION OF FEE SCHESFLE

City of Salinas August 28, 2024

www.FinanceDTA.com
The City must review the information made available at the next regularly Scheduled public meeting not less than 15 days after this information is made available to the public . Notice of the time and place of the meeting, including the address where this information may be reviewed, shall be mailed at least 15 days prior to the meeting to any interested party who files a written request with the local agency for mailed notice of the meeting.

G Refunding Policy
Under the Mitigation Fee Act, Govt . Code §66000 et seq., each development fee must be deposited in a separate capital facilities account and may be expended only for the purposes for which it was collected.

For all unexpended fees, the agency must make findings every 5 years that:

1. Identify the purpose to which the fee will be put;

2. Demonstrate a reasonable relationship between the unexpended balance and the purpose for which the fee was charged;

3. Ascertain the sources and funding for any as-yet-incomplete public improvements; and

4. Designate the approximate date the agency expects the funding for uncompleted improvements to be deposited in the account [§66001(d)(1)]. The Act provides that “if the findings are not made as required by [the Act], the local agency shall refund the moneys in the account” to the current owners of the properties for which the fees were paid [§66001(d)(2)].

Failure to make the findings specified in Mitigation Fee Act requires a refund of all unexpe nded DIF revenues. When sufficient funds have been collected to complete financing of the public improvements contained in the CIP, the public agency shall identify "an approximate date by which the construction of the public improvement will be commenced" within 180 days of collection of the required funds (Gov .

Code §66001(e)]. Failure to comply with this requirement also mandates the return of the collected funds, as stated above.

Furthermore, pursuant to Gov. Code §66008.1, otherwise known as AB 516, which became effective as of January 1, 2024 requires the following:
• Require that annual reports include certain additional information, such as: (1) identifying public improvements in previous annual reports and whether construction began on the date previously identified; and (2) provide the reason for delay and a revised approximate date the local agency will commence construction for projects that did not begin timely. • Require that local agencies provide certain information to anyone paying a fee, such as the right to request audits, the right to request written notice of the meetings where annual reports are approved and a link to the website where annual reports are available. • Expands the purposes for which audits of fees may be requested.

H Annual Update of the Capital Improvement Plan (“CIP”) It is common for jurisdictions to prepare a CIP in conjunction with a fee program . In fact, AB 1600 encourages the use of a CIP to assist in scheduling and implementing the services and improvements 22 SECTION VII

IMPLEMENTATION OF FEE SCHESFLE

City of Salinas August 28, 2024
Development Impact Fee Justification Study

www.FinanceDTA.com
funded through impact fees (Gov . Code §66002). A good CIP establishes a Schedule of improvements necessary to accommodate the projected growth. The CIP must indicate the approximate size, location, time of availability, and estimated costs of all improvements to be financed through fees [Gov. Code §66002(a)]. In order to create a usable CIP, a municipality must have an accurate understanding of its current service baseline and its projected growth . This requires an understanding of when, where, and how growth may occur within the area. The more information collected about future growth, the more comprehensive and accurate the CIP will be . A CIP can also help a municipality determine when new public improvements or the expansion of existing public improvements is needed in relation to the timing of new development.

If the public agency adopts a CIP, it must be updated annually [Gov. Code §66002(b)]. 10 days’ published notice is provided pursuant to Government Code §65090 and is also provided to any city or county that may be significantly affected by the CIP. If a CIP is adopted and is used as a basis for identifying the use of impact fees, the CIP must be adopted and updated annually by a resolution of the governing body at a public hearing . In the absence of a CIP, an alternative is to identify improvements in other public documents, such as General Plans, land studies, and other documents.

I Administration Costs of Fee Implementation
The cost of implementing the DIF is not included in the fees themselves and must be determined by the City. To recover the periodic costs of updating the fees studies, implementing the program, ongoing staff costs, managing the updates , and preparing annual and five -year updates required by the Act, an administration fee may be added to the impact fees calculated in this Fee Study. DTA recommends that these fee expenses are handled administratively and pass the costs on to user fees charged to applicants for processing fee applications. The calculation of the administrative cost for each fee in this Fee Study is presented in each respective fee section and in the Executive Summary.

J Indexing of Impact Fee Rates
The DIF presented in this report are based on current facility costs provided by the City and should be adjusted annually to account for inflation . The purpose of the adjustment is to account for future escalation in costs for land, equipment, vehicles, and construction. DTA recommends that after adoption, the fee should be reviewed each year and adjusted by a reliable index such as ENR’s CCI generally used as the primary basis for indexing construction costs . Ordinarily, land costs make up a significant portion of the costs covered by the fees and do not lend themselves to traditional cost indexes. As such, land costs should be adjusted to changes in local land prices.

K Updating the Impact Fee Study
As stated in Section II.B., AB 602 was signed into law in September of 2021 by the Governor of California, and it provides new Statewide requirements for local jurisdictions seeking to impose the DIF on development projects. Among these requirements are that nexus studies shall be updated at least every 8 years as of January 1, 2023. However, DTA concurs with the generally accepted policy that 5 years is a good rule-of-thumb time period for impact fee updates, particularly because the required 5-year findings (see above) can be approved at that same time . In some instances, fees may remain valid for a longer 23 SECTION VII

IMPLEMENTATION OF FEE SCHESFLE

City of Salinas August 28, 2024
Development Impact Fee Justification Study

www.FinanceDTA.com
period of time if the City’s land use and facility plans do not change. A case in point is a municipality at or near full build-out capacity. However, a dynamic, growing municipality facing significant changes in land use would do itself a disservice if it maintained the current fee structure for too long without a Fee Study to update the current rates.

L Administering an Impact Fee Program
Creating and administering an impact fee program can be a labor-intensive process requiring considerable preparation and training that should not be undertaken more often than necessary . A well-planned fee program can generate sufficient funds to allow the City to adequately mitigate impacts created by future development. Conversely, a poorly planned fee can result in either collecting too little money and being forced to pay for public facilities required as a result of future development through its General Fund or collecting too much money based on an unsupported fee program, thus exposing the City to a fee challenge or a requirement to refund unexpected proceeds.

All personnel involved in the process , including accounting, capital budgeting, and project management of any other area, must be made fully aware of the difference between impact fees and other fees, such as user fees, and of the guidelines and restrictions placed on the expenditure of impact fee revenues. The building impact fees generated in this report are tied to specific facility improvements and cost estimates provided by the City. The fees must be expended accordingly and must be able to withstand any challenges and show that the funds have been properly directed in accordance with proper AB 1600 guidelines.

In addition, every 5 years, the City shall report the status of the DIF funds in accordance with Government Code Section 66001(d) and shall i) identify the purpose to which the fee is put; ii) demonstrate a reasonable relationship between the fee and the p urpose for which it is charge, iii) identify the sources and amounts of funding needed to complete the program, iv) list the facilities not yet completed, and v) identify, to the extent possible, the timing of when the remaining funds are expected to be received.

VIII SUMMARY OF SEWER IMPACT FEE
Table VIII-1 is a summary of the proposed fee amounts for the various land uses . The fee amounts represent the maximum fee that can be charged to any land use.

In order to recover administrative costs incurred by the City in the administration of the impact f ee program, an administrative component equal to 2.0% of the total fee is added on to the proposed fees.

In addition, pursuant to Government Code Section 65852.2(f), ADUs are exempt from incurring impact fees from local agencies, special districts, and water corporations if such unit is less than 750 square feet.

If an ADU is 750 square feet or larger, impact fees shall be charged proportionately in relation to the square footage of the ADU to the square footage of the primary dwelling unit . Furthermore, sewer fee shall not be applicable to any accessory dwelling unit created within the existing space of a sin gle-family residence or accessory structure, including, but not limited to, a studio, pool house, or other similar structure.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

DATE: SEPTEMBER 24, 2024
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS, TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORATION DIVISION FROM: DAVID JACOBS, PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
BY: ADRIANA ROBLES, CITY ENGINEER

GERARDO RODRIGUEZ, ASSISTANT ENGINEER
TITLE: 2024 SALINAS ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION PLAN

RECOMMENDED MOTION:

A motion to approve a Resolution adopting the 2024 Salinas Active Transportation Plan as a strategic planning document.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City’s current bicycle and pedestrian plans were developed in the early 2000s, and there is a need for an updated compressive active transportation planning document. The vision of the 2024 Active Transportation Plan is to create an accessible, high-quality network of walking and biking routes that connect all neighborhoods within the city. The 2024 Active Transportation Plan identifies transportation needs and prioritizes projects that will make walking and biking reliable, comfortable, convenient, and more connected for all users.

BACKGROUND:

With a mild climate and relatively flat terrain, t he City of Salinas is well -positioned to increase walking and bicycling for transportation. Currently, there are 95 miles of connected bikeways.

However, there are substantial gaps in the current bicycle network and much of the network is in relatively disconnected islands that create barriers to bicycling on streets with high speed s and volumes of vehicles, creating safety issues when people bike on streets without a dedicated facility.

In addition, although the sidewalk network in Salinas is generally well developed, there are some pedestrian network gaps and the sidewalks in many areas are need of repair or replacement.

In 2022, the City of Salinas was awarded a Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant to develop a Citywide Active Transportation Plan. At its meetings, on December 6, 2022 and On May 16, 2023 City Council approved an agreement with Ecology Action and Kimley Horn Associates, Inc., respectively, to develop the Active Transportation Plan.

The City of Salinas Active Transportation Plan was informed by the 2018 Salinas Active Transportation Needs Assessment, the 2022 Safe Routes to School Plan, 2022 Vision Zero Action Page | 2
Plan, and other current planning efforts. The plan is intended to act as a combined update of the Pedestrian Plan (2004) and the Bikeways Plan (2002) and provide a strategy for citywide sustainable transportation growth and opportunities to support connection and integration into the regional active transportation network1.

This Plan was developed with systematic, iterative community engagement, focusing on critical agency stakeholders as well as disadvantaged communities. The plan incorporates robust outreach efforts that used a diverse set of tools to meet people where they are, including a community-driven prioritization process to select projects for design and implementation, discussion and agreement on the policy and programmatic improveme nts to support the network, and a design process that resulted in concepts that are feasible and fundable.

This plan includes strategies to improve bicycle and pedestrian connectivity and safety by expanding the existing bicycle network, improving pedestr ian circulation, reducing vehicle trips, creating complete streets, and building a healthy and livable community. The plan also includes a list of priority projects that can continue Salinas’ success in supporting active transportation. This prioritization process has already been beneficial, with the City submitting a Cycle 7 Active Transportation Plan grant application in June 2024 to fund one of these priority projects, the John Street/Williams Road Safe Routes to School Project and Programming.

The 2024 Active Transportation Plan also includes the City’s Trail Master Plan, which is intended to guide the development of a safe, interconnected system of trails and shared-use paths throughout Salinas. Much like the Active Transportation Plan, the Tra ils Master Plan includes project recommendations to support walking and bicycling as safe, enjoyable, and realistic transportation options for community members. These projects provide additional opportunities for those who enjoy walking, jogging, bicyclin g, and skating for health and recreational purposes. The T rails Master Plan is focused on trails and shared-use paths, while the Active Transportation Plan covers a wider range of active transportation facilities.

Traffic and Transportation Commission

The Draft 2024 Salinas Active Transportation Plan was presented to the Traffic and Transportation Commission at its August 8, 2024 meeting. The Commission voted (4-2) recommending City Council to approve a Resolution adopting the 2024 Salinas Active Transportation Plan.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

CITY OF SALINAS

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

DATE: SEPTEMBER 24, 2024
DEPARTMENT: FINANCE
FROM: RENE MENDEZ, CITY MANAGER

BY: JIM PIA, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER

SELINA ANDREWS, ACTING FINANCE DIRECTOR

ABE PEDROZA, SENIOR FINANCE MANAGEMENT ANALYST

TITLE: AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT (ARPA) PROJECTS UPDATE
RECOMMENDATION:

A motion to approve a resolution delegating authority to the City Manager to reallocate American Rescue Plan Act funding between various programs and projects previously approved by City Council.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The recommendation provides authority to reallocate funding between ARPA projects in accordance with the U.S. Treasury Department regulations to mitigate the risk of not having funds encumbered by the December 31, 2024 , deadline. The recommended action will not impact any services or projects previously authorized by the City Council and will result in the obliga tion of all ARPA Funds prior to the deadline.

BACKGROUND:

On March 11, 2021, President Biden signed the American Rescue Plan Act, which provide d the City with $51,567,313 in relief funds. These additional resources have provided critical community and economic recovery support.

ARPA requires that local governments obligate all ARP A funds (e.g., encumber funding through the issuance of contracts/purchase orders) by December 31, 2024, and to expend all ARPA funds by December 31, 2026. Due to this timeline, a number of the community and economic recovery workstreams were anticipated to be spent over a multi -year period. Of the $51.6 million initially received ARPA funding, a remaining amount of $2 5.6 million is included in the FY 2024 -25 Budget. While the City has made considerable progress in this effort, a total of $1 2,682,496.37 remain unencumbered as of September 2024 as detailed below.

Over the last few of months, staff developed timelines for all projects and has determined that the reallocation of funding for certain projects is necessary to meet program needs while adhering to the December 31, 2024, encumbrance deadline.

An example of what the reallocation of projects might look like is if any specific project identified in the table above does not get to a point where a contract is in place to allow the funds to be encumbered, the City Manager may look at other projects that already have contracts in place such as Street Repair & Traffic Safety and authorize additional funds to be encumbered there. This will allow for projects to continue moving forward with ARPA monies.

Should the encumbrance deadline not be met, ARPA allows for governments to reimburse themselves for lost revenue due to the pandemic, and then use that revenue to pay for government services. In accordance with regulations provided by the U.S. Treasury Department, the City’s calculated revenue loss (calculated across all eligible City funding sources) exceeds the $ 12.7 million in unencumbered ARPA allocated across several services and projects . The City may Page | 3
decide to allocate any and all relief funds to this purpose, which would present the opportunity to shift already programmed general fund resources to complete the projects.

While we expect to be able to encumber the funds, we will bring back a report detailing the final results, including any reallocation and/or reimbursement of revenue.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

Not a Project. 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).

CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:

No.

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

The projects and programs funded by the Salinas Recovery Plan under the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) of 2021 achieves the Council 2022 -2025 Strategic Goals of Housing/Affordable Housing, Infrastructure and Environmental Sustainability, Public Safety, Youth and Seniors, and Effective and Culturally Responsive Government.

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

This staff report has been coordinated with the City Manager’s Office, Finance Department, Community Development, Fire, Public Works, and Library & Community Services.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding allows the City to move forward with several important projects and programs with no impact on the City’s General Funds. Reallocation of ARPA funds is not being recommended at this time. However, as it gets closer to the encumbrance deadline, the City Manager may need to reallocate funding as necessary to avoid the City losing ARPA monies.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

DATE: SEPTEMBER 24, 2024
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
FROM: DAVID JACOBS, P.E., L.S., PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
THROUGH: ADRIANA ROBLES, P.E., C.F.M., CITY ENGINEER
BY: VICTOR SANCHEZ, ASSISTANT ENGINEER
TITLE: CITYWIDE SIDEWALK REPAIR PROJECT PHASE II, CIP N O. 9720 CCO NO. 3

RECOMMENDED MOTION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve a resolution:

1. Authorizing the City Manager to execute Contract Change Order No. 3 to JJR Construction for the Citywide Sidewalk Repair Project Phase II, CIP No. 9720 in the amount of $372,246.60; and

2. Approving a 10% construction contingency not identified in Resolution 22889 and an additional 12% construction contingency for a total construction contingency of 22% in the amount of $459,571.97 for a revised not to exceed contract amount of $2,548,535.48 to JJR Construction Inc.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

On February 6, 202 4, City Council approved Resolution 22889, awarding a contract to JJR Construction for the Citywide Sidewalk Repair Project Phase II, CIP No. 9720 in the amount of $1,688,963.51 and authorizing the Interim City Manager to approve contract change orders for additional work for an amount not to exceed $400,000. Contract Change Order No. 3 directs the contractor to install 3 5 pedestrian curb ramps where none existed at locations where roadway pavement was recently rehabilitated as required by Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

Additional contingency is requested to fund additional potential contract change orders that were negotiated with JJR to include sidewalk repairs to address an ADA grievance and to reconnect sidewalks currently disconnected along E Romie Lane.

BACKGROUND:

On February 6, 2024, City Council approved Resolution 22889, awarding a contract to JJR Construction Inc. for the Citywide Sidewalk Repair Project Phase II, CIP No. 9720 in the amount of $1,688,963.51 and authorizing the Interim City Manager to approve contract change orders in Page | 2
an amount not to exceed $400,000. A portion of the $400,000 was to address corner addresses not incorporated into the Citywide Sidewalk Repair Project, Phase I project. An additional 10% of construction contingency was identified in the staff report but not in the resolution.

Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) require s that state and local governments ensure that persons with disabilities have access to the pedestrian routes in the public right of way.

An important part of this requirement is the obligation whenever streets, roadways, or highways are altered to provide curb ramps where street level pedestrian walkways cross curbs . This requirement is intended to ensure the accessibility and usability of the pedestrian walkway for persons with disabilities. Alterations of streets, roads, or highways include activities su ch as reconstruction, rehabilitation, resurfacing, widening, and projects of similar scale and effect. 1 Over the past couple of years, the City has dedicated additional resources to improve roadway pavement conditions , dedicating both maintenance and cont ract work to the rehabilitation of streets. Table 1 below identifies roadways rehabilitated by City Maintenance crews that require curb ramps to allow pedestrian access to the street level.

Total Contract Amount Requested $2,548,535.48

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).

In addition, CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 includes the general rule that CEQA applies only to activities which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environm ent. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Because the proposed action and this matter have no potential to cause any effect on the environment, or because it falls within a category of activities excluded as projects pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378, this matter is not a project. Because the matter does not cause a direct or foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability.

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

The removal of unlawful campsites, bulky items, and personal property aligns with the City Council’s Strategic Plan goal of “Public Safety”.

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

FAMILY LITERACY GRANT AWARD

RECOMMENDED MOTION:

A motion to approve a Resolution;

1. Accepting the California Library Literacy Services (CLLS) block grant award in support of Adult Literacy and Family Literacy, for a total award of $216,431 and the establishment of the grant appropriation for the grant award amount and corresponding revenue budget to support grant activities;

2. Authorizing t he City Manager to execute all grant acceptance documents with the California State Library; and

3. Delegating authority to the City Manager to execute agreements and authorize expenditures related to the California Library Literacy Services (CLLS) block grant award.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

On August 29, 2024, the Salinas Public Library’s Literacy Services Division was notified by the California State Library Literacy Services (CLLS) of approval for an award of $216,431 to support Adult Literacy and Family Literacy program s. These funds are distributed to all California Libraries providing literacy programs annually and will support adult and family literacy programming for English-speaking adults with low-literacy skills, and their families, and will be provided primarily to adults and families enrolled in the library’s Adult Literacy and Family Literacy programs.

BACKGROUND:

The Library’s Adult Literacy program is dedicated to promoting lifelong learning through a variety of literacy programs and services. The grant will enable the library to employ temporary part-time staff to work in adult and family literacy programs, acquire books, supplies and learning materials that enhance our adult and family education programs, and increase our capacity to provide high- quality adult and family literacy services, including but not limited to Computer Literacy instruction, Citizenship and High School Equivalency preparation programs, Family Reading

Circles, Family Learning events, and staff trainings to enhan ce family literacy skills and best practices. Library staff are prepared to offer both in -person and/or virtual instruction. The California Library Literacy Services funding formula for Adult Literacy program s includes a baseline amount ($2 5,000) for each approved library literacy program, and a per capita amount per adult learner served in our program as reported in the most recent Final Report on file from our library; and additional funding based on local funds raised and expended for adul t literacy services, reflecting a commitment to state/local partnerships in support of literacy services.

Because the City continues to invest in its Literacy Services, and the library continues to run a very successful program which served more than 400 adults in 2023/2024, the library award is one of the highest in the State.

Literacy staff continue to find innovative ways to serve adult learners with in-person, virtual and distance learning instruction. This includes individual tutoring and small class es, as well as adapting to individual needs and abilities for which we offer virtual options including a combination of video conferencing instruction via Zoom and YouTube videos; guided and self - paced learning with student handbooks and curricula; take-home activity kits; one-on-one help via Zoom, email, phone; and much more.

1. Authorizing the acceptance of the 2025 California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) grant in the amount of $98,000, the execution of all grant-related documents, and the establishment of the 2025 OTS-STEP Grant appropriation of up to $98,000 and corresponding revenue budget to support grant activities.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The Salinas Police Department has been awarded two OTS Grants to support the department’s traffic enforcement and education efforts related to traffic, bicycle, and pedestrian safety. The Department is requesting authorization to accept both the OTS -STEP and OTS-PBSP grants, and to execute an agreement with Ecology Action to provide OTS-PBSP grant activities.

BACKGROUND:

Annually the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) makes funds available to local agencies to further their traffic enforcement and education efforts related to traffic, bicycle, and pedestrian safety. The Salinas Police Department (SPD) has been awarded OTS Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) grant funding in the amount of $98,000 to aid in its efforts to reduce the number of people killed and injured in traffic collisions, both alcohol-related and non-alcohol related. SPD has received OTS-STEP grant funding for the last 11 years to support DUI and traffic enforcement Page | 2
activities. This STEP grant will target problems that include speed violations, distracted driving, red-light violations, pedestrian/vehicle right -of-way violations, and enforcement at locations with a high instance of collis ions and injuries. The grant will also provide funding for DUI saturation patrols, Distracted Driving patrols, and Sobriety Checkpoints. The grant funds will enable SPD to employ best practice strategies on an overtime basis. To further deter serious traffic collisions, injuries and fatalities, the Police Department will use the grant funds to conduct traffic enforcement operations targeting distracted drivers and other violations that have shown to be the proximate cause of coll isions in Salinas. The Police Department will also use the grant funds as reimbursement for training and travel expenses associated with the Department’s traffic enforcement efforts. The grant period will run from October 1, 2024, through September 30, 2025.

The Salinas Police Department has also been awarded OTS Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Program (PBSP) grant funding in the amount of $170,831 to aid in its efforts to reduce the number of people killed and injured in pedestrian and bicycle traffic co llisions. SPD has been awarded the OTS - PBSP grant since 2019 . As in previous years, SPD will subcontract the full amount of the OTS - PBSP grant, $170,831, to Ecology Action for the provision of grant activities. Ecology Action is a non-profit organization based in Santa Cruz and they have partnered with the Transportation Agency of Monterey County (TAMC) in hopes of serving every student in Monterey County with pedestrian and bicycle safety education by the time they finish 5th grade . To achieve this goal, Ecology Action works in close collaboration with several community partners, including TAMC, the Monterey County Health Department, the Monterey Peninsula Foundation, the Community Foundation of Monterey County, and others to provide support for these efforts. Through their work with the Salinas Police Department on the 2025 OTS-PBSP grant, Ecology Action will provide 30 Walk Smart Classroom Presentation and related Walking Field Trips, and 27 Bike Smart Classroom Presentations and related Bike Rodeos. In addition to the services provided during the 2024 OTS- PBSP grant, t he partnership will expand by offering services to middle school and high school students and by incorporating additional services such as Learn to Ride Workshops, Group Rides, and Bike Repair Clinics. Learn to Ride Workshops are designed to teach elementary students the skills needed to ride a bicycle and provide students who already know how to ride a bicycle a chance to improve their skills. Group Rides are geared toward middle school and high school students and will teach them about bike safety and offer beginner -friendly opportunities to explore safe neighborhood routes, while gaining confidence with street riding. Bike Repair Clinics for Teens are designed to ensure that middle and high school students are riding safe and operable bikes. The clinics will offer free bicycle mechanical checks and basic repair, as well as instruction on bike checks and flat tire repair. Ecology Action will also distribute bicycle helmets and bicycle safety equipment during bicycle safety community events , bicycle safety courses, and other community events. The grant period will run from October 1, 2024, through September 30, 2025.

The Department is requesting C ity Council approval to accept the 2025 OTS-STEP Grant in the amount of $98,000 and the 202 5 OTS-PBSP grant in the amount of $170,831 . Staff is also requesting approval to enter into an Agreement with Ecology Action to provide pedestrian and bicycle safety training to the community as funded by the OTS-PBSP grant.

GRANT AGREEMENT
Schedule A

GRANT NUMBER
PT25217

1. PROBLEM STATEMENT
The City of Salinas, located in Central California, is the largest in Monterey County with an estimated population of 163,542. The City is ranked the 34th city by population in California (State of California, 2023), and the largest city in Monterey County (World Population Review, 2024). The median income is $80,560, and 12.6% of the population is in poverty. Of the population, 80% are Hispanic or Latino, 18.5% are White,

5.9% Asian, 1.1% African American, 0.1% Native American, and 1.6% Other. Spanish is the leading language spoken at home, by 69.3%. Other languages spoken at home include English (26.5%), Asian and Pacific Islander languages (3.2%), other Indio-European languages (0.8%), and other languages (0.2%). An undetermined number of migrant workers come into the city on a seasonal basis, which causes the population to rise significantly for several months during the primary agricultural growing season. This makes it difficult to accurately assess the population. The data shows City of Salinas has a serious traffic safety problem. Residents may not fully understand traffic laws, and language and cultural differences exacerbate this problem.

The City of Salinas is approximately 23.45 square miles with 339 miles of roadway. U.S. 101 traverses the city running north and south. SR-68 and SR-183 also run through Salinas. This diverse network of roadways contributes to the high volume of traffic crashes experienced in Salinas. During the 2023 Federal Fiscal Year, there were 1,617 crashes, up from 1,465 in 2022. The top three known crash factors are Unsafe Speed (196 crashes), Auto Right-Of-Way violations (171 crashes), and Driving Under the Influence (171 crashes). In comparing the 2020 OTS Crash Rankings to the 2021 OTS Crash Rankings, changes in ranking for the following areas should be noted: Total Fatal and Injury crashes changed from 30/61 to 20/60; Alcohol Involved changed from 12/61 to 21/60; Motorcycles changed from 40/61 to 17/60; Pedestrians changed from 14/61 to 8/60; and Bicyclists changed from 34/61 to 26/60. In addition, during the calendar year 2023, the City of Salinas had more traffic fatalities (12) than homicides (11). These statistics demonstrate the need to maintain traffic enforcement and education services within the City of Salinas.

The Salinas PD Traffic Unit can have a significant impact on enforcement and education related to traffic laws. Unfortunately, the Salinas PD is at critical staffing with 26 officer vacancies, and another 21 officers on leave or unable to work full duty. This results in only 77% of our sworn officers actively working. The Salinas PD has had to implement a reduction in the calls for service that are responded to, we are in the process of transitioning our Traffic Sergeant to a collateral assignment, and currently have only one dedicated Traffic Officer. The Department uses full-time and collateral traffic unit officers as well as patrol officers to conduct traffic enforcement operations using OTS grant funds. During this period of critical staffing, the utilization of overtime by officers is necessary in order for the City to maintain traffic enforcement and education services. Salinas PD has been receiving a STEP grant since 2011 and we have recently focused on recruiting additional collateral assignment traffic officers to ensure our ability to provide dedicated traffic enforcement services through this grant funding. The Salinas Police Department continues to encourage officers to receive training to support STEP Grant activities. The Salinas PD does have one SFST instructor and we intend to host SFST classes as staffing allows. We have one DRE certified officer, and we continue to encourage officers to continue training so we can expand the number of officers with SFST, ARIDE, and DRE certifications.

1. Issue a press release announcing the kick-off of the grant by November 15. The kick-off press releases and media advisories, alerts, and materials must be emailed to the OTS Public Information Officer at [email protected], and copied to your OTS Coordinator, for approval 7 days prior to the issuance date of the release.
1 2. Participate and report data (as required) in the following campaigns; Quarter 1:

National Pedestrian Safety Month, National Walk to School Day, National Teen Driver Safety Week, NHTSA Winter Mobilization; Quarter 3: National Distracted Driving Awareness Month, National Motorcycle Safety Month, National Bicycle Safety Month, National Click it or Ticket Mobilization; Quarter 4: National Speed Prevention Campaigns, NHTSA Summer Mobilization, National Child Passenger Safety Week, and California's Pedestrian Safety Month.
12 3. Develop (by December 31) and/or maintain a “DUI BOLO” program to notify patrol and traffic officers to be on the lookout for identified repeat DUI offenders with a suspended or revoked license as a result of DUI convictions. Updated DUI BOLOs should be distributed to patrol and traffic officers monthly. 12 4. Send law enforcement personnel to the NHTSA Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) (minimum 16 hours) POST-certified training. 4 5. Send law enforcement personnel to the NHTSA Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement (ARIDE) 16 hour POST-certified training. 1 6. Send law enforcement personnel to the Drug Recognition Expert (DRE) training (classroom and field training must be completed).
1 7. Send law enforcement personnel to the DRE Recertification training. 1

8. Conduct DUI/DL Checkpoints. A minimum of 1 checkpoint should be conducted during the NHTSA Winter Mobilization and 1 during the Summer Mobilization. To enhance the overall deterrent effect and promote high visibility, it is recommended the grantee issue an advance press release and conduct social media activity for each checkpoint. For combination DUI/DL checkpoints, departments should issue press releases that mention DL's will be checked at the DUI/DL checkpoint. Signs for DUI/DL checkpoints should read "DUI/Driver's License Checkpoint Ahead." OTS does not fund or support independent DL checkpoints. Only on an exception basis and with OTS pre-approval will OTS fund checkpoints that begin prior to 1800 hours. When possible, DUI/DL Checkpoint screeners should be DRE- or ARIDE-trained.

A. Phase 1 – Program Preparation (1st Quarter of Grant Year)  The department will develop operational plans to implement the “best practice” strategies outlined in the objectives section.
 All training needed to implement the program should be conducted in the first quarter.  All grant related purchases needed to implement the program should be made in the first quarter.  In order to develop/maintain the “DUI BOLOs,” research will be conducted to identify the “worst of the worst” repeat DUI offenders with a suspended or revoked license as a result of DUI convictions. The DUI BOLO may include the driver’s name, last known address, DOB, description, current license status, and the number of times suspended or revoked for DUI. DUI BOLOs should be updated and distributed to traffic and patrol officers at least monthly.  Implementation of the STEP grant activities will be accomplished by deploying personnel at high crash locations.

Media Requirements:

Issue a press release approved by the OTS PIO announcing the kick-off of the grant by November 15, but no sooner than October 1. The kick-off release must be approved by the OTS PIO and only distributed after the grant is fully signed and executed. If you are unable to meet the November 15 deadline to issue a kick-off press release, communicate reasons to your OTS grant coordinator and OTS PIO.

GRANT AGREEMENT
Schedule A

GRANT NUMBER
PS25052

1. PROBLEM STATEMENT
In 2023, Salinas was ranked the 34th city by population in California and designated in 2024 as the largest city in Monterey County. Salinas is well-positioned to increase walking and bicycling for transportation; however, there are substantial gaps in the current bicycle network. Much of the network is in relatively disconnected islands that create barriers to bicycling on streets. The high speeds and large volumes of vehicles create safety issues when people bike on streets without a dedicated facility. Salinas has a diverse population of approximately 163,543 residents. The percentage of adults in East Salinas with less than a high school education is nearly four times the California average. About 12 percent of Salinas residents have a bachelor’s degree or higher, compared to 30 percent nationwide. The median income is $80,560, and 12.6 percent of the population is in poverty, and more than 80 percent of high school and middle school students in Salinas qualify for free or reduced lunch programs based on their low family income levels. Of the population, 80 percent are Hispanic or Latino, 18.5 percent are White, 5.9 percent Asian, 1.1 percent African American, 0.1 percent Native American, and 1.6 percent Other. Spanish is the leading language spoken at home, by 69.3 percent. Other languages spoken at home include English (26.5 percent), Asian and Pacific Islander languages (3.2 percent), other Indio-European languages (0.8 percent), and other languages (0.2 percent). Approximately 25 percent of the population falls within the school-age range, which ranges from 5 to 19 years old.

According to the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS), rankings are based on comparisons of traffic safety statistics of cities with similar-sized populations. In comparing the 2020 OTS Crash Rankings to the 2021 OTS Crash Rankings, changes in ranking for the following areas should be noted: overall crashes involving pedestrians changed from 14/61 to 8/60; crashes involving pedestrians below the age of 15 changed from 33/61 to 5/60; crashes involving pedestrians above the age of 65 changed from 11/61 to 14/60; overall crashes involving bicyclists changed from 34/61 to 26/60; and crashes involving bicyclists below the age of 15 changed from 14/61 to 16/60.

Based on Crossroad Analytics, the 2023 Federal Fiscal Year reflects a total of 1,617 crashes. Out of that total, there were 610 crashes resulting in injuries and 9 fatalities. Crashes involving pedestrians and bicyclists accounted for 123 crashes, comprising 8 percent of all crashes. While the overall percentage of pedestrian and bicyclist crashes is minimal at 8 percent, assessing the proportion of injury crashes to the overall crash count is crucial. Out of the 123 crashes involving pedestrians and bicyclists, 103 resulted in injuries, constituting 84 percent of the total. The data shows that Salinas has a serious traffic safety problem that greatly affects children and youth. Residents may not fully understand traffic laws as they pertain to bikes and pedestrians, and language and cultural differences exacerbate this problem. An undetermined number of migrant workers come into the city on a seasonal basis, which causes the population to rise significantly for several months during the primary agricultural growing season. This has resulted in neighborhoods that are overcrowded and households that have limited or no access to a vehicle. Salinas has great potential to increase safe walking and biking, and children and youth need education and support to do so safely.

The Salinas Police Department (PD) traffic unit can have a significant impact on pedestrian and bicycle safety. Unfortunately, the Salinas PD is at critical staffing and as of January 2024, has 26 officer vacancies, and another 21 officers on leave or unable to work full duty. This results in only 77 percent of our sworn officers actively working. During this period of critical staffing, the Salinas PD is unable to address pedestrian and bicycle safety activities with sworn staffing at the level we would desire. To ensure that pedestrian and bicycle safety is not overlooked, the Salinas PD will continue to contract with a non-profit organization, who has a history of successfully providing educational programming within the City of Salinas and other surrounding jurisdictions. In addition, the Salinas PD has a newly implemented Community Outreach and Engagement (CO&E) Unit’s Team will work to ensure police outreach presence at events and activities.
