EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Vance Shannon (Applicant), on behalf of Quick Quack Car Wash, is proposing to construct and operate a 3,588 square foot Vehicle Washing building with outdoor vacuums located at 115 E.
Boronda Road in the Gateway Shopping Center. The site is in the Commercial Retail Zoning District and falls under Specific Plan Overlay District 8 - Gateway Center Specific Plan Overlay.
However, the Gateway Center Specific Plan (Specific Plan), adopted in October 2011, restricts Vehicle Washing as an accessory use to a Convenience Store use subject to a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Therefore, the Applicant is requesting an amendment to the Specific Plan to allow Vehicle Washing as a primary use subject to a CUP. Additional amendments requested include authorizing a site specific 75% (9-space) parking reduction, allowing a shift in building orientation away from the street, and modifying access driveways to accommodate Vehicle Washing traffic circulation on-site. Lastly, an application for a CUP to construct and operate the proposed 3,588 square foot Vehicle Washing building with outdoor vacuums is requested. The CUP cannot be considered without approval of the Specific Plan Amendment.
BACKGROUND:
The GCSP (SPEC 2010-001) was adopted on October 11, 2011, by the Salinas City Council (Resolution No. 20112). The Specific Plan provides a bridge between the Salinas General Plan and applications for individual development permits within the Specific Plan Area, applying greater specificity to the policies and concepts for retail development in the Salinas General Plan.
The Specific Plan provides a complete description for development of the Specific Plan Area, including 1) a description of the proposed retail and open space areas, 2) design policies and standards, 3) infrastructure needs, and 4) implementation and administrative processes. The Specific Plan also identifies project objectives to guide development. Key Project Objectives are listed below:
Provide a shopping center in proximity to other regional retail centers expanding and diversifying the retail and services available at this central location, and to its proximity to the other retail centers, generally reducing overall vehicle miles traveled. Provide for expanded retail growth and increased local retail expenditures that will generate additional sales tax revenues for the city.
Promote the type of commercial development that creates additional employment opportunities within the local community.
Provide a shopping center that incorporates sustainable development and energy efficient principles to the extent reasonably practicable.
Incorporate design elements related to lighting, screen walls, landscape buffers, access, and circulation, etc. that mitigate impacts on existing and future surrounding uses. Provide a commercial area that encourages pedestrian activity and maximizes visibility and natural surveillance to the extent feasible through appropriate building orientation, design, scale, and landscaping, and connections to bus stops, the Citywide system of bicycle lanes, and planned connections to the adjacent, future development of the West Area Specific Plan project Page | 3
area. These characteristics will make the project consistent with principles of Crime Prevention through Environmental Design and New Urbanism, as described in the General Plan and the New Urbanism District Regulations of the Zoning Code.
Provide a site plan that efficiently utilizes the land area creating a compact development that minimizes the overall footprint of the project.
A 152,328 square foot anchor tenant (Lowe’s) building, parking lot, detention basin, and other on and off-site improvements were constructed in 2017-2018 through an administrative Site Plan Review in conformance with the Specific Plan. The Specific Plan recognized the possible future need to respond to changing conditions and expectations during its implementation. To address this possibility, provide flexibility, and facilitate revisions, this Specific Plan provides the framework alterations, minor amendments, and major amendments of the Gateway Center Specific Plan. A Specific Plan Amendment (SPA 2019-001) was approved by City Council on April 16, 2019, (Resolution No. 21590). The first amendment authorized an alternative building and sign design and a change in pedestrian lighting for the construction of a 2,995 square foot restaurant pad building with drive-through (Foster’s Freeze) and a 505 square foot speculative retail pad building.
The subject property is designated Retail by the Salinas General Plan and is in the Commercial Retail base Zoning District and SP-8 overlay Zoning District. The Specific Plan contains development regulations and design standards that address many of the development requirements for the Specific Plan Area. As to those matters that are not addressed in this Specific Plan, Zoning Code standards and requirements for Commercial Retail (CR) apply to the retail portions of the Plan Area. The following provides an overview of the land uses and zoning districts adjacent to the project site:
North: Undeveloped / NE (Neighborhood Edge – West Area specific Plan Overlay) South: Harden Ranch Shopping Center and residential uses / CR and R-H-1.8 and R-M3.6– SP-1 (Commercial Retail, Residential High Density, Residential Medium Density – Harden Ranch Specific Plan Overlay)
East: Undeveloped / NE (Neighborhood Edge – West Area specific Plan Overlay) West: Mobile home park and single-family detached dwellings / R-M-2.9 and R-L-5.5 (Residential Medium and Low Density)
Planning Commission Action and Recommendation
As reflected in the attached Planning Commission Resolution 2024-009 and Minutes, the Planning Commission recommended to City Council approval of SPA 2023-002 and CUP 2023-022 on September 18, 2024.
Project Description
The project plans show a 3,588 square foot, single story, Vehicle Washing building, 17 outdoor vacuum stalls, 2 parking spaces and 1 ADA accessible parking space, a trash enclosure, and landscaping located on a 55,483 square foot lot at 115 East Boronda Road. The proposed wash building would include a conveyor belt, spinning wraps, and three access entry drive aisles. Access Page | 4
would be provided via internal drive-aisles within the shopping center. The entrance of the car wash begins at the northeast corner of the site and extends along the property line to maximize queuing. The building would be 108 feet in length, with a 50-foot queue for vehicles to circulate through the wash tunnel. The hours of operation are proposed to be 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. daily.
Refer to the project plans attached to the draft Conditional Use Permit for additional detail.
Specific Plan Amendment 2023-002
Per Section 2.2.3, Table 2 of the GCSP, Vehicle Washing is allowed as an accessory use to a Convenience Store use subject to a Conditional Use Permit. The Applicant is requesting to amend the Specific Plan to allow Vehicle Washing as a primary use subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit. In addition, the Applicant is requesting the Specific Plan be amended to allow for 1) a site specific 75% (9-space) parking reduction, 2) building orientation to face away from the street, 3) and modify driveway access locations and width to accommodate on-site circulation of Vehicle Washing operations.

GCSP Basic Principles of New Urbanism Analysis
The 2002 Salinas General Plan defines New Urbanism (Page 367, “N” Definitions) as:
An international planning movement to reform the design of the built environment to raise quality of life and standard of living by creating better places to live. New urbanism involves "placemaking", a reordering of the built environment to promote the creation and restoration of diverse, walkable, compact, mixed use communities containing housing, workplaces, shops, entertainment, schools, parks, and civic facilities essential to the daily lives of residents within easy walking distance (within 10 minutes or approximately ¼ mile) of each other. Also referred to as Traditional Neighborhood Development, new urbanist communities provide a mix of well-designed uses and a variety of housing types within easy walking distance of a discernible center. Higher density development is generally at the center with progressively less intense development at the edge.
Connectivity between uses is provided via an interconnected network of roadways and bicycle and pedestrian trails. Sustainable development and alternative modes of transportation are also encouraged by New Urbanism.
The Zoning Code was updated based on the 2002 General Plan New Urbanism principles, which became effective on December 7, 2006. Consistent with the General Plan requirement for Future Growth Area development, the Gateway Center Specific Plan states that development is to incorporate the basic principles of the New Urbanism in as much as those principles are applicable to commercial sites with single anchor retail use and identified the following design elements to respond to those principles:
Page | 6
GCSP Basic Principles of New Urbanism Compliance
The varied building placement and massing
provides visual interest and architectural
variety and relate to the design themes of the
anchor retail user.
Substantially Compliant.
Varied building placement away from the
street with massing provides visual interest and
architectural variety.
The commercial structures and landscape
planters screen and minimize views to the
parking field for the anchor retail use while
preserving views to that structure from the
entrances.
Compliant.
Internal pedestrian pathways connect retail
structures and provide access to the bus stops.
Not Complaint.
The project would remove an internal
driveway, which also removes pedestrian
pathways connecting structures in conflict
with Figure 1.3 and 4.2 of GCSP.
Note: Refer to the related Specific Plan
Amendment. The application includes a
request to amend the GCSP to achieve
compliance with the above item.
Decorative and pedestrian-scaled planters,
seating areas, bicycle racks, and other site
furnishings will be provided.
Substantially Compliant.
The plans indicate the provision of consistent
bike racks. Decorative/consistent benches and
other site furnishings would be a condition of
the CUP.
Pathways and sidewalks provide connections
to a future off-site pedestrian circulation
system, which will extend throughout the West
Area Specific Plan and the FGA.
Compliant.
Vehicle Washing Use
Per Section 2.2.3, Table 2 of the GCSP, Vehicle Washing is only allowed as an accessory use to a Convenience Store use subject to a Conditional Use Permit. Applicant’s proposal is to amend the Specific Plan to allow stand-alone Vehicle Washing subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit without the use having to be accessory to a Convenience Store.
Barghausen Consulting Engineers, Inc., prepared a Project Narrative dated July 16, 2024. The project seeks an amendment to Table 2 in Section 2.2.3 of the GCSP, which currently allows the development of a car wash only in conjunction with a gasoline service station (convenience store).
Integrating a car wash with a gasoline service station entails a more intensive, vehicle-oriented service with additional environmental impact considerations. This typically involves 8 to 12 fueling dispensers, accommodating 16 to 24 vehicle fueling positions, along with multiple 20,000- Page | 7
gallon underground storage tanks and a 4,000-square-foot convenience retail space, often offering alcohol and tobacco products. Moreover, such facilities typically operate 24/7 versus the proposed 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. daily.
Parking Reduction
Per Section 4.3.3 of GCSP, projects will provide parking at a ratio of one space for every 292 square feet of gross building floor area. This parking ratio is slightly less than the standard City ratio of one space for every 250 square feet of gross building floor area. The proposed 3,588 square foot Vehicle Washing building requires 12 off-street parking spaces per the Specific Plan.
Applicant’s proposal is to amend the Specific Plan to provide 3 off-street parking spaces, resulting in a 75% (9-space) parking reduction.
The Project Narrative described the Vehicle Washing operation and provided justification for the requested parking reduction. The proposed use provides a service where customers remain in their vehicle for the duration of the service. Customers will have the option to utilize free-to-use vacuum stations upon exiting the vehicle wash. The vacuum services (17 stalls) are limited to paid customers and members that first utilize the vehicle washing service. No retail or other services are provided that would require parking spaces. This means that the parking demand for the project is limited to employee needs only. The project anticipates two to three employees to be on site at any one time. The project provides a total of three parking spaces to satisfy employee parking demand. In addition, the Lowe's project to the north includes 20 additional parking stalls than were required. If additional staff parking is required, they could utilize those spaces, which is consistent with the shared parking provisions of the GCSP.
Building Orientation and Pedestrian Activity
Per the Objectives in Section 1.1.3 Project Objectives of the GCSP, projects are to provide a commercial area that encourages pedestrian activity and maximizes visibility and natural surveillance to the extent feasible through appropriate building orientation, design, scale, and landscaping, and connections to bus stops, the Citywide system of bicycle lanes, and planned connections to the adjacent, future development of the West Area Specific Plan project area. The Applicant’s proposal would reorient the building away from the street and does not provide amenities promoting pedestrian activity.
The Project Narrative states that due to the project site's width constraints, it is not feasible for the Quick Quack car wash building to abut the front property line. The Vehicle Wash building is 108 feet in length, with a required approach of 50 feet for vehicles to circulate through the tunnel.
Additionally, due to the unique use characteristics of a car wash, locating the building along the frontage would also require vehicles to enter and exit the car wash along the street with no direct access to the right-of-way. Customers would be required to exit the tunnel onto the adjacent property. The currently proposed site orientation with the building set back from the street allows for the queuing lanes to be located internal to the site with an exit that connects to the existing shopping center shared drive aisle improvements. This layout allows for optimal vehicle circulation while minimizing the potential for any adverse impacts to the right-of-way or other tenants within the shopping center.

Pedestrian Pathways/ Driveway Closure / Driveway Location and Width Per Table 3 Gateway Project Development Regulations of the GCSP, pedestrian pathways and interior driveways shall be limited to those shown in Figure 1.3 (see project site area below in Figure 1.3) and shall be a minimum of 24 feet wide with aprons that conform to City standards.
Pedestrian pathways are shown in Figure 4.2 of the GSCP (see below). The Applicant’s proposal is to close off pedestrian pathways and an existing driveway, relocate another, and increase the width of the relocated driveway from 24-feet wide to 44-feet wide.

Applicant’s Proposal
The Project Narrative explains that a wider drive aisle is required to provide access into a threelane vehicle queuing area for vehicles to queue while they wait to go through the vehicle wash. If the interior access driveway were constructed to be 24 feet wide, it would reduce the amount of vehicle queuing space and would increase the risk of vehicles stacking onto the shopping center's drive aisles and onto East Boronda Road. This request is consistent with Section 37-50.520(c)(4), which states that a driveway's design shall be directly related to the amount of reservoir space for drive-through service facilities.
Conditional Use Permit 2023-022
The Applicant has also applied for Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 2023-022 to construct and operate a 3,588 square foot Vehicle Washing building with 17 outdoor vacuums. The City Council Commission must take action on the Specific Plan Amendment in the affirmative for the related Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 2023-022 to be considered for approval.
Staff’s review of the application, materials, and plans for the Conditional Use Permit is based on the General Plan, General Plan EIR, Chapter 37 of the Municipal Code (Zoning Code), GCSP, and the GCSP MND. Review included all applicable development and design standards for the project as well as the overall site plan, drainage, and related improvements. Besides the items specified in the Applicant’s request for the Specific Plan Amendment, the items were reviewed as follows:

Project Overview
The subject property spans 55,483 square feet designated as Commercial Retail (CR) in the Salinas Municipal Code, situated within the Gateway Specific Plan Area. The Gateway Specific Plan allows car washing facilities as an accessory to convenience stores with a Conditional Use Permit. The proposal seeks to amend the plan, enabling a car washing facility as a primary use, subject to a Conditional Use Permit.
The project entails constructing an approximately 108-foot car wash showroom (3,588 square feet) with three stacking lanes for up to 18 vehicles. Site improvements include 17 parking spaces, free-to-use vacuums, standard and ADA-accessible parking, a trash enclosure, exterior lighting, and landscaping.
Surrounding Uses
The project site, part of a commercial development, neighbors a Lowe's Home Improvement store to the north and various commercial establishments to the south, including Walmart, MOD Pizza, and other restaurants. Adjacent properties to the east and west are vacant and zoned for commercial retail. The nearest residential areas are approximately 200 to 300 feet southeast and 500 northwest.
Quick Quack Business Model
Quick Quack Car Wash is Fast. Clean. Loved... Everywhere. Founded in 2004 in Sacramento, California, Quick Quack Car Wash is a fast-growing chain of exterior-only, express car wash locations in Arizona, California, Texas, Utah, and Colorado. Quick Quack is regularly recognized for its community-building efforts, as well as its environmentally friendly business practices. In addition to a big yellow mascot duck named "Quackals," Quick Quack is best known for a company culture of "Smart, Kind, and Driven" leaders, team members, and community partners working together to ensure that customers "Don't Drive Dirty!™" Operational Measures
The car wash includes a conveyor belt or motorized track that guides vehicles through the showroom. This track system allows for the capability to wash up to 155 cars an hour, loading one car every 24 seconds into the wash. As vehicles are being guided through the 3-minute wash, the wash process includes a combination of spinning wraps, recycled water, and environmentally friendly soaps. For the customer's ease of use, point-of-sale kiosks are placed within the stacking lanes, located before the wash entrance. Quick Quack's License Plate Recognition software allows members to enter through automated gates, further reducing wait times. The speed and efficiency of Quick Quack's wash throughput and queuing procedures vastly differ from other QSR drive-through models and avoid common challenges of queuing processes.
Site Characteristics
The Quick Quack showroom is located in the center of the parcel. Access is provided via internal drive aisles within the shopping center. The entrance to the car wash starts at the northeast corner and extends along the property line to maximize queuing. Customers will exit at the northeast corner of the site, facing away from the public street. Parking spaces with free vacuums will be located on the south end of the site and to the side of the wash showroom.
Due to the project site's width constraints, it is not feasible for the Quick Quack building to abut the front property line. The Quick Quack building is 108 feet in length, with a required approach of 50 feet for vehicles to circulate through the tunnel. Additionally, due to the unique use characteristics of a car wash, locating the building along the frontage would also require vehicles to enter and exit the car wash along the street with no direct access to the right-of-way. Customers would be required to exit the tunnel onto the adjacent property. The currently proposed site orientation with the building set back from the street allows for the queuing lanes to be located internal to the site with an exit that connects to the existing shopping center shared drive aisle improvements. This layout allows for optimal vehicle circulation while minimizing the potential for any adverse impacts to the right-of-way or other tenants within the shopping center. 2 22955.002-Narrative.docx
Architecture
The architectural features of our proposed project not only comply with the Gateway Center Specific Plan but contribute to the aesthetic appeal and functionality outlined in the plan. Our design incorporates the architectural themes, colors, and geometries illustrated in the provided design exhibits. To showcase the building design's compatibility with the surrounding development, we have prepared an Architectural Compatibility Exhibit. The building's material, finish, and color palette feature natural materials like stone, stucco, and concrete in warm, neutral colors. The various stucco finishes are painted in Sherwin Williams Dark Auburn, Torchlight, Believable Buff, and Snowbound and are all complimentary to the colors observed in the surrounding area. Architectural features such as glazing, awnings, pilasters, and arches add visual interest while articulating the various functions taking place in and around the site. Material changes and building form modulation are incorporated both horizontally and vertically to break up the massing of the building in a similar form to buildings within the shopping center. The gabled roof structure provides a strong visual presence along the main street frontage further aligning our design with the architectural themes and goals of the new urbanism's modality.
In addition to the aesthetic considerations, site lighting will be provided at the project site for the safety and security of all customers, pedestrians, and employees. Outdoor lighting, including parking lot security lighting and building façade illumination, will be installed with shields directing light toward the project site while preventing glare from adjacent land uses and rights-of-way. This comprehensive approach ensures that our project meets the visual expectations outlined in the plan, but also prioritizes safety and security within the environment.
Environmental Benefits
Quick Quack Car Wash aligns with evolving consumer preferences, critical for zoning committees. As consumer behavior shifts, 79 percent now prefer professional car washes, highlighting the market demand for eco-friendly options. Quick Quack addresses environmental concerns associated with home car wash practices, aligning with contemporary expectations. Home car washing consumes an average of 120 gallons of fresh water, releasing hazardous chemicals into local storm systems. In contrast, our advanced system utilizes only 28 gallons and captures 99 percent of water for reuse, supporting broader sustainability goals. Quick Quack's commitment to an environmentally friendly approach extends to the use of biodegradable cleaning products that lessen the overall impact on the environment. These processes not only ensure effective and safe cleaning, but also underscore our dedication to a sustainable and responsible business model.
New Urbanism Principals
Annexation of the Future Growth Area (FGA) is contingent upon the New Urbanism Zoning.
District Designation, which guides new development in line with New Urbanism principles. The project aims to adhere to these principles through the following initiatives:
• Walkability: The Quick Quack site is located within a 10-minute walk from surrounding residential neighborhoods. The project utilizes an established pedestrian walkway along the entire west property line. The proposed landscaping incorporates trees and vibrant plantings along the walkway, enhancing the overall pedestrian experience.
• Connectivity: The development includes an established pedestrian plaza with a seating area at the southwest corner of the site, eliminating an existing driveway entrance. The project replaced the curb cut with an additional sidewalk, ensuring alignment with the interior of the shopping center. • Mixed-Use and Diversity: Quick Quack, situated within a larger shopping center, complements a diverse mix of shops, restaurants, and services which include Lowe's Home Improvement, a toy superstore, key services, and a Fosters Freeze. The shopping center, adjacent to two expansive 3 22955.002-Narrative.docx
residential neighborhoods, fosters accessibility across San Guan Grade Road and East Boronda Road.
• Mixed Housing: While Quick Quack Car Wash is not housing, its location within the mixed-use shopping center offers proximity to a range of housing to the northwest and the southeast. Quick Quack is a membership-based car wash that serves the local neighborhoods. • Quality Architecture and Urban Design: The development emphasizes quality architecture and urban design as indicated within the Architectural section of this narrative. The design aligns with New Urbanism principles, contributing to the overall aesthetics of the area. • Traditional Neighborhood Structure: The project adheres to a traditional neighborhood structure by being a future discernable part of the shopping center. The pedestrian plaza space at the southwest corner and walkway along the west of the site provide public spaces and enhance the quality of the public realm, creating a cohesive and interconnected network. • Increased Density: The addition of Quick Quack to the shopping center increases density by integrating more services into the area. The development emphasizes resource conservation, including water usage, as detailed in the Environmental Impact section. • Green Transportation: Although the site is a vehicle-oriented service, all types of vehicles are welcome at Quick Quack, including electric, hydrogen, natural gas, propane, biodiesel, and other renewable-fueled vehicles. The project proposes long-term and short-term bicycle parking at the north of the site and the pedestrian-friendly design includes a public sidewalk to the south and a pedestrian walkway to the west that promotes green transportation practices for employees and customers that visit the shopping center.
• Sustainability: Quick Quack Car Wash is a green-certified and eco-friendly car wash that reduces water usage by 65 percent, minimizes chemical runoff, and mitigates environmental impact through sustainable practices.
• Quality of Life: Car washing is a valuable service that is as necessary as regular mechanical maintenance. Frequent washing protects vehicle value by preventing rust, corrosion, and a decline in vehicle aesthetics. Consistent car washing maintains the integrity of a vehicle's exterior and improves the lifetime of most people's second largest asset.
Specific Plan Amendment
Standalone Use Allowance
The project seeks an amendment to Table 2 in Section 2.2.3 of The Gateway Center Specific Plan, which currently allows the development of a car wash only in conjunction with a gasoline service station.
Integrating a car wash with a gasoline service station entails a more intensive, vehicle-oriented service with additional environmental impact considerations. This typically involves 8 to 12 fueling dispensers, accommodating 16 to 24 vehicle fueling positions, along with multiple 20,000-gallon underground storage tanks and a 4,000-square-foot convenience retail space, often offering alcohol and tobacco products.
Moreover, such facilities typically operate 24/7. While according to the current specifications, a car wash is permitted as part of a gasoline service station, the proposed project seeks the allowance of a standalone car wash without the prerequisite of constructing a gasoline service station.
Parking Reduction
A parking reduction to reduce the required parking for the project from one stall per 272 square feet (13 stalls) to one stall per 1,196 square feet is also requested as part of the Specific Plan Amendment. Per Section 37-50.370(a)(4), the Planning Commission can grant a parking reduction of more than 30 percent 4 22955.002-Narrative.docx
of the required parking stalls if data exists which supports a reduction in parking and loading spaces for uses which, by their nature, are not likely to be converted to another use with greater parking requirements.
The proposed use provides a service where customers remain in their vehicle for the duration of the service.
Costumers will have the option to utilize free-to-use vacuum stations upon exiting the vehicle wash. The vacuum services are limited to paid customers and members that first utilize the vehicle washing service.
No retail or other services are provided that would require parking spaces. This means that the parking demand for the project is limited to the employee needs only. The project anticipates two to three employees to be on site at any one time. The project provides a total of three parking spaces to satisfy parking demand.
In addition, the Lowe's project to the north included 20 additional parking stalls than were required. If additional staff parking is required, they could utilize those spaces, which is consistent with the shared parking provisions of the Gateway Center Specific Plan. Lastly, a car wash building cannot be converted to another use with a greater parking requirement. A car wash showroom building is designed specifically to house the equipment for the car wash inside it and if the car wash closes, then the building would need to be substantially remodeled or demolished so the land could be repurposed for another use.
Driveway Width
Lastly, the Specific Plan Amendment requests that the project exceed the maximum width for a one-way driveway of 24 feet as required in Section 37-50.450 of the Salinas Municipal Code. The project's proposed site plan includes a one-way driveway at the project site's northwest corner that will be 44 feet wide. The reason why the driveway is needed to exceed the maximum width for a one-way driveway is because it provides access into a three-lane vehicle queuing area for vehicles to queue while they wait to go through the vehicle wash. If the driveway were constructed to be 24 feet wide, it would reduce the amount of vehicle queuing space and would increase the risk of vehicles stacking onto the shopping center's drive aisles and onto Boronda Road. This request is consistent with Section 37-50.520(c)(4), which states that a driveway's design shall be directly related to the amount of reservoir space for drive-through service facilities.
Specific Plan Amendment Justifications
The Salinas General Plan serves as the guiding framework for future growth, development, and conservation within the incorporated Salinas city limits and the surrounding planning area. This comprehensive plan sets policies that align with community values and aspirations.
The Salinas Municipal Code functions as a tool for implementing the General Plan, outlining permissible land uses, allowed intensity levels, and development and performance standards specific to various city areas. The Gateway Specific Plan adheres to the provisions of the Salinas Municipal Code unless modified by the Specific Plan.
The envisioned amendment to the Gateway Specific Plan aims for alignment with the Salinas Municipal Code. It also seeks to enhance the standard review process by introducing a discretionary element, incorporating public outreach and requiring Planning Commission approval for the proposed vehicle washing use.
To make a final decision, the Planning Commission will consider the following findings for the Specific Plan Amendment:
a) The proposed location of the development and proposed conditions under which it will be operated or maintained is consistent with the goals and policies embodied in the Salinas general plan and other applicable plans and policies adopted by the city council.
Response: The amendment to the Specific Plan and the proposed car wash is consistent with the General Plan. The project site does not impact any critical views, including the agricultural views, the Northridge Shopping Center, or Carr Lake. The project also proposes equipment to minimize sound emissions, promote water conservation, and be consistent with the surrounding commercial development. The following are specific goals and policies the project is consistent with:
5 22955.002-Narrative.docx
• Goal LU-3: Encourage a diverse economy that allows for the continued economic success of the community, while not sacrificing its agricultural base. • Policy LU-3.2: Encourage the location of and community investment by high-tech and other diverse businesses that are ecologically compatible with Salinas and that promote stable, year-round higher paying employment opportunities.
• Policy LU-6.4: Actively promote water conservation by city residents, businesses, and surrounding agricultural producers.
• Policy CD-2.2: Minimize potential light and sound impacts of new development on surrounding areas.
• Policy CD-2.3: Require infill development to be consistent with the scale and character of existing neighborhoods.
• Policy CD-2.4: Encourage the use of design features to create an environment that maximizes the number of "eyes on the street" and reduces potential criminal activities. • Policy CD-3.9: Group neighborhood shopping centers, schools, civic and recreational uses, parks, and public transit opportunities together in new neighborhoods to create an activity center focal point for the neighborhoods they serve.
The project is also consistent with the goals outlined in the Gateway Specific Plan, including the following:
• Provide a shopping center in proximity to other regional retail centers expanding and diversifying the retail and services available at this central location and, due to its proximity to the other retail centers, generally reducing overall vehicle miles traveled. • Provide for expanded retail growth and increased local retail expenditures that will generate additional sales tax revenues for the City.
• Create an economically viable and sound plan that will facilitate the development of this new retail center.
• Promote the type of commercial development that creates additional employment opportunities within the local community.
• Provide a shopping center that incorporates sustainable development and energy efficient principles to the extent reasonably practicable.
b) The development will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare of persons residing or working in or adjacent to such a development, nor detrimental to properties or improvements in the vicinity or the general welfare of the city.
Response: The proposed amendment to the Gateway Specific Plan will require a Conditional Use Permit for car washing facilities. Each car washing facility will require a discretionary review, subject to Public and Planning Commission input for a thorough review of surrounding impacts. The Quick Quack proposal will not be detrimental to the people residing in the vicinity or the nearby properties and improvements. Quick Quack uses detergents and soaps that are considered environmentally safe and biodegradable. Quick Quack Car Wash facilities are also designed to conserve water. The car wash uses substantially less water than an individual washing their own vehicle in their driveway. It is estimated that Quick Quack will service 350 6 22955.002-Narrative.docx
cars a day. Each car will use 28 gallons, totaling 9,800 gallons a day. If the same number of cars were washed at home in driveways, that would utilize approximately 28,000 gallons a day.
This car wash could save 18,200 gallons of water a day; therefore, providing a positive effect on the environment and surrounding vicinity.
c) The specific plan and resulting development will be consistent with the provisions of Article 8 of Chapter 3 of the California Government Code, commencing with Section 65450 as may be subsequently amended by the state of California.
Response: Minor modifications are proposed to expand the uses allowed in the Gateway Specific Plan. Therefore, the amendment incorporates all requirements and is in compliance with the California Government Code Article 8, Chapter 3, Section 65450; Specific Plans and includes the necessary components to be reviewed and adopted by the Salinas City Council.
Conditional Use Permit
The Planning Commission will consider the following findings for a Conditional Use Permit:
a) That the proposed location of the use is in accordance with the objectives of the Salinas general plan, this Zoning Code, and the purposes of the district in which the site is located; Response: As demonstrated above, the amendment to the Specific Plan and the Quick Quack Car Wash is consistent with the Salinas General Plan. The project site does not impact any critical views, including the agricultural views, view of Northridge shopping center, or Carr Lake.
It also proposes equipment to minimize sound emissions, promote water conservation, and be consistent with the surrounding commercial development.
Through the Gateway Specific Plan, the site was designated as a Commercial Retail (CR) district which allows a wide range of retail stores, restaurants, hotels and motels, commercial recreation, personal services, business services, offices, financial services, mixed-use residential, and/or limited residential uses. The Quick Quack car wash is consistent with the CR zone as it is a commercial service. Car washing facilities are outright permitted with a Site Plan Review in the CR zoning district, outside of the Gateway Specific Plan Area. The Specific Plan Amendment will allow the car wash with a Conditional Use Permit, which will enhance the review process and contribute both Public and Planning Commission input. b) That the proposed location of the conditional use and the proposed conditions under which it would be operated or maintained are consistent with the Salinas general plan and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare of persons residing or working in or adjacent to the neighborhood of such use, nor detrimental to properties or improvements in the vicinity or to the general welfare of the city; and
Response: As mentioned above, the project is consistent with the General Plan and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare of any person, property, or improvement in the vicinity or city.
c) That the proposed conditional use complies with the provisions of this Zoning Code, including any specific conditions required for the proposed use.
Response: In the CR district and the Gateway Specific Plan, vehicle and equipment servicing, maintenance, repair, and lumber yards shall be conducted wholly within an enclosed structure.
The car wash will be conducted wholly within an enclosed structure. Seventeen of the 20 parking stalls contain a vacuum for customers to utilize upon entering or exiting the car wash.
The vacuum is in a wholly enclosed CMU structure with a hose component that extends directly to the vehicle. A canopy will cover the cars to provide additional protection. 7 22955.002-Narrative.docx

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Salinas City Council adopts the following findings as the basis for its determination, and that the foregoing recitations are true and correct, and are included herein by reference as findings subject to the conditions stated in the Conditional Use Permit:
For the CEQA Exemptions:
1. The project has been found to be a Class 5 Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15305 and a Class 32 Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15332 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines;
The City Council finds the project categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15305 (Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations) for the Specific Plan Amendment that was already analyzed through the Gateway Center Specific Plan Mitigated Negative Declaration, and Section 15332 (Infill Development Projects) for the Conditional Use Permit for construction of the vehicle washing building along with site improvements.
For the Specific Plan Amendment:
2. The proposed location of the development and proposed conditions under which it will be operated or maintained is consistent with the goals and policies embodied in the Salinas general plan and other applicable plans and policies adopted by the City Council; The amendment to the Specific Plan and the proposed Vehicle Washing building is consistent with the General Plan. The project site does not impact any critical views, including the agricultural views, the Northridge Shopping Center, or Carr Lake. The project also proposes equipment to minimize sound emissions, promote water conservation, and be consistent with the surrounding commercial development. The following are specific goals and policies the project is consistent with:
a. Goal LU-3: Encourage a diverse economy that allows for the continued economic success of the community, while not sacrificing its agricultural base. b. Policy LU-6.4: Actively promote water conservation by city residents, businesses, and surrounding agricultural producers.
c. Policy CD-2.2: Minimize potential light and sound impacts of new development on surrounding areas.
d. Policy CD-2.3: Require infill development to be consistent with the scale and character of existing neighborhoods.
The Amendment applies to several Sections and Figures (attached hereto) to address consistency with the objectives outlined in the Gateway Specific Plan. Amended Sections and Figures are as follows:
a. Figure 1.3 of GCSP: Amend Gateway Specific Plan Map to include proposed site plan call out.
b. Figure 3.7.1 of GCSP: Add Figure 3.7.1 for Building R-1 Conceptual Elevations for proposed project.
c. Figure 4.2 of GCSP: Amend Vehicular Access and Internal Circulation to remove a “Primary Customer Internal Circulation” access point. d. Section 1.1.3 of GCSP: Amend objective to exclude proposed project, “building R-1”, from the objective.
e. Section 2.2.3, Table 2 of GCSP: Amend Table to allow Vehicle Washing use with a CUP without the use being accessory to a convenience store. f. Section 4.3.3. of GCSP: Amend parking ratio for building R-1 to 1 space per 1,196 s.f. of gross building floor area.
The project is consistent with the following objectives:
a. Provide a shopping center in proximity to other regional retail centers expanding and diversifying the retail and services available at this central location and, due to its proximity to the other retail centers, generally reducing overall vehicle miles traveled.
b. Provide for expanded retail growth and increased local retail expenditures that will generate additional sales tax revenues for the City. c. Create an economically viable and sound plan that will facilitate the development of this new retail center.
d. Provide a shopping center that incorporates sustainable development and energy efficient principles to the extent reasonably practicable.
3. The development will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare of persons residing or working in or adjacent to such a development, nor detrimental to properties or improvements in the vicinity or the general welfare of the city; The proposed amendment to the Gateway Specific Plan requires a Conditional Use Permit for a Vehicle Washing use. Each Vehicle Washing use will require a discretionary review through a CUP process. The project will not be detrimental to the people residing in the vicinity or the nearby properties and improvements. The project will use detergents and soaps that are considered environmentally safe and biodegradable. The project is designed to conserve water. The Vehicle Washing use utilizes substantially less water than an individual washing their own vehicle in their driveway. It is estimated that the project will service 350 cars a day. Each car will use 28 gallons, totaling 9,800 gallons a day. If the same number of cars were washed at home in driveways, that would utilize approximately 28,000 gallons a day. This car wash could save 18,200 gallons of water a day; therefore, providing a positive effect on the environment and surrounding vicinity.
4. The specific plan and resulting development will be consistent with the provisions of Article 8 of Chapter 3 of the California Government Code, commencing with Section 65450 as may be subsequently amended by the state of California; The California Government Code sections referenced above include Sections 65450 through 65457. Of these, Section 65454 is directly applicable to the adequacy of the Specific Plan Amendment and to discretionary actions related to its implementation.
California Government Code Section 65454 requires that a specific plan may not be adopted or amended unless it is consistent with the City’s General Plan. As described in Finding No. 2 of this resolution, the amendment to the Gateway Center Specific Plan has been found to be consistent with the Salinas General Plan For the Conditional Use Permit:
5. The proposed location of the use is in accordance with the objectives of the Salinas General Plan, this Zoning Code and the purposes of the district in which the site is located;
As demonstrated in Finding No. 2 of this resolution, the amendment to the Specific Plan and the Vehicle Washing use is consistent with the Salinas General Plan. Through the Gateway Specific Plan, the site was designated with a base Commercial Retail (CR) district which allows a wide range of retail stores, restaurants, hotels and motels, commercial recreation, personal services, business services, offices, financial services, mixed-use residential, and/or limited residential uses. The Specific Plan Amendment will allow the Vehicle Washing use with a discretionary Conditional Use Permit process.
6. The proposed location of the conditional use and the proposed conditions under which it would be operated or maintained are consistent with the Salinas General Plan and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare of persons residing or working in or adjacent to the neighborhood of such use, nor detrimental to properties or improvements in the vicinity or the general welfare of the City of Salinas; and The project is consistent with the General Plan and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare of any person, property, or improvement in the vicinity or city.
The project includes construction of a solid waste and recycling enclosure consistent with the standards contained in the Gateway Center Specific Plan. A condition will require that a letter be provided from Republic Services that the solid waste and recycling enclosure meets their service needs.
7. The proposed conditional use will comply with the provisions of the Salinas Zoning Code, including any specific conditions required for the proposed use.
Conditions have been recommended for this permit to ensure that, when implemented; the project will conform and comply with the provisions of the Salinas Zoning Code. A condition includes the requirement for a Lot Line Adjustment to be recorded to reflect the proposed lot lines prior to issuance of a building permit.

site or retail business without re-entering the public road system. ln particular, the orientation of the internal circulation system is equally balanced between the anchor retail store to the north and the retail/services stores sited along the arterial roadways to the south and west.
Visibility at public street corners and at the points where private driveways connect with the public street shall be maintained as an area of unrestricted visibility consistent with zoning regulations (Salinas Municipal Code [SMC], Section 37-50.460). Plans showing conformance with these regulations shall be submitted to the City and approved prior to the issuance of a grading permit on the property.
4.3.3 Parkinq
Figure 4.3 illustrates typical parking facilities, including typical parking, and accessible parking. The overall parking plan is detailed in Figure 1.3 and Table 1. A majority of the parking is located in the central portion of the site south of the anchor retail structure and is configured to serve the anchor retail use. Additional parking is located adjacent to the retail/services structures. The parking plan for the retail/services area will be adjusted as necessary to accommodate modifications in the size and/or location of the retail/service buildings. The preliminary location of ADA-accessible spaces is illustrated in Figure 1.3, and the location, number, and configuration will meet local, state, and federal requirements. Also illustrated in Figure 1.3 is the preliminary location of priority parking for alternate fuel vehicles such as electric and hybrid vehicles. A charging facility will also be provided on-site to allow customers and employees to charge their vehicles during shopping trips or work shifts.
The proposed project will provide parking at a ratio of one space for every 292 square feet of gross building floor area, except for a Vehicle Washinq use in buildino R-'l will have a parkino ratio of 1 space per 1 ,1 96 s.f . of ross buildinq floor area ThiS parking ratio is slightly less than the standard city ratio of one space for every 250 square feet of gross building floor area. However, the peak-use hours for the anchor retail use are significanfly different from the retail/services structures along E. Boronda and San Juan Grade Roads. As a result, there will be a significant amount of shared use of the parking area. This will allow the proposed parking ratio to provide adequate parking for the project.

PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT
DATE: SEPTEMBER 18, 2024
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
FROM: COURTNEY GROSSMAN, PLANNING MANAGER
BY: BOBBY LATINO, ASSOCIATE PLANNER
TITLE: SPECIFIC PLAN AMENDMENT 2023-002 (SPA 2023-002): REQUEST TO
AMEND THE GATEWAY CENTER SPECIFIC PLAN TO ALLOW
VEHICLE WASHING SUBJECT TO A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
AND OTHER RELATED AMENDMENTS; CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
2023-022 (CUP 2023-022): REQUEST TO CONSTRUCT AND OPERATE A 3,588 SQUARE FOOT VEHICLE WASHING BUILDING WITH
OUTDOOR VACUUMS LOCATED AT 115 EAST BORONDA ROAD IN
THE COMMERCIAL RETAIL (CR) ZONING DISTRICT AND GATEWAY
CENTER SPECIFIC PLAN OVERLAY DISTRICT (SP-8)
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Receive a report from Staff and consider the following requests with a recommendation to City Council:
1. Specific Plan Amendment (SPA) 2023-002 to amend the Gateway Center Specific Plan (GCSP) as follows: allow Vehicle Washing subject to a Conditional Use Permit (CUP), authorize a site specific 75% (9-space) parking reduction, change building orientation and modify access driveways to accommodate Vehicle Washing building traffic circulation onsite; and
2. Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 2023-022 to construct and operate a 3,588 square foot Vehicle Washing building with outdoor vacuums.
If the Commission recommends approval, the Commission will also need to recommend the City Council find the project categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15305 (Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations) for the Specific Plan Amendment that was already analyzed through the GCSP Page | 2
Mitigated Negative Declaration and Section 15332 (In-fill Development Projects) for the Conditional Use Permit, if approved.
If the Commission recommends denial, the Commission will also need to recommend the City Council find the project statutorily exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15270 (Projects Which are Disapproved).
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Quick Quack Car Wash, the Applicant, is proposing to construct and operate a 3,588 square foot Vehicle Washing building with outdoor vacuums located at 115 E. Boronda Road in the Gateway Shopping Center. The site is located in the Commercial Retail Zoning District and falls under Specific Plan Overlay District 8 - Gateway Center Specific Plan Overlay. The Gateway Center Specific Plan (Specific Plan), adopted in October 2011, allows Vehicle Washing as an accessory use to a Convenience Store use subject to a Conditional Use Permit. Therefore, the Applicant is requesting an amendment to the Specific Plan to allow Vehicle Washing as a primary use subject to a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Additional amendments requested include authorizing a site specific 75% (9-space) parking reduction and allowing a shift in building orientation away from the street and modifying access driveways to accommodate Vehicle Washing traffic circulation on-site. An application for a Conditional Use Permit to construct and operate the proposed 3,588 square foot Vehicle Washing building with outdoor vacuums is also being considered. The Planning Commission would need to recommend approval to City Council of the Specific Plan Amendment for the related Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 2023-022 to be considered for a recommendation of approval to City Council.
Staff is requesting that the Planning Commission receive the report, make a recommendation to City Council on the Specific Plan Amendment and Conditional Use Permit, make findings in support of their recommendation, and make findings with respect to compliance with CEQA.
DISCUSSION:
Background:
The GCSP (SPEC 2010-001) was adopted on October 11, 2011, by the Salinas City Council (Resolution No. 20112). The Specific Plan provides a bridge between the Salinas General Plan and applications for individual development permits within the Specific Plan Area, applying greater specificity to the policies and concepts for retail development in the Salinas General Plan.
The Specific Plan provides a complete description for development of the Specific Plan Area, including 1) a description of the proposed retail and open space areas, 2) design policies and standards, 3) infrastructure needs, and 4) implementation and administrative processes. The Specific Plan also identifies project objectives to guide development. Key Project Objectives are listed below.
Page | 3
Provide a shopping center in proximity to other regional retail centers expanding and diversifying the retail and services available at this central location, and to its proximity to the other retail centers, generally reducing overall vehicle miles traveled. Provide for expanded retail growth and increased local retail expenditures that will generate additional sales tax revenues for the City.
Promote the type of commercial development that creates additional employment opportunities within the local community.
Provide a shopping center that incorporates sustainable development and energy efficient principles to the extent reasonably practicable.
Incorporate design elements related to lighting, screen walls, landscape buffers, access, and circulation, etc. that mitigate impacts on existing and future surrounding uses. Provide a commercial area that encourages pedestrian activity and maximizes visibility and natural surveillance to the extent feasible through appropriate building orientation, design, scale, and landscaping, and connections to bus stops, the Citywide system of bicycle lanes, and planned connections to the adjacent, future development of the West Area Specific Plan project area. These characteristics will make the project consistent with principles of Crime Prevention through Environmental Design and New Urbanism, as described in the General Plan and the New Urbanism District Regulations of the Zoning Code. Provide a site plan that efficiently utilizes the land area creating a compact development that minimizes the overall footprint of the project.
A 152,328 square foot anchor tenant (Lowe’s) building, parking lot, detention basin, and other on and off-site improvements were constructed in 2017-2018 through an administrative Site Plan Review in conformance with the Specific Plan. The Specific Plan recognized the possible future need to respond to changing conditions and expectations during its implementation. To address this possibility, provide flexibility, and facilitate revisions, this Specific Plan provides the framework alterations, minor amendments, and major amendments of the Gateway Center Specific Plan. A Specific Plan Amendment (SPA 2019-001) was approved by City Council on April 16, 2019, (Resolution No. 21590). The first amendment authorized an alternative building and sign design and a change in pedestrian lighting for the construction of a 2,995 square foot restaurant pad building with drive-through (Foster’s Freeze) and a 505 square foot speculative retail pad building.
DISCUSSION:
The subject property is designated Retail by the Salinas General Plan and is in the Commercial Retail base Zoning District and SP-8 overlay Zoning District. The Specific Plan contains development regulations and design standards that address many of the development requirements for the Specific Plan Area. As to those matters that are not addressed in this Specific Plan, the existing requirements for Commercial Retail (CR) applies to the retail portions of the Plan Area.
The following provides an overview of the land uses and zoning districts adjacent to the project site:
North: Undeveloped / NE (Neighborhood Edge – West Area specific Plan Overlay) Page | 4
South: Harden Ranch Shopping Center and residential uses / CR and R-H-1.8 and R-M3.6– SP-1 (Commercial Retail, Residential High Density, Residential Medium Density – Harden Ranch Specific Plan Overlay)
East: Undeveloped / NE (Neighborhood Edge – West Area specific Plan Overlay) West: Mobile home park and single-family detached dwellings / R-M-2.9 and R-L-5.5 (Residential Medium and Low Density)
Project Description
The project plans show a 3,588 square foot, single story, Vehicle Washing building, 17 outdoor vacuum stalls, 2 parking spaces and 1 ADA accessible parking space, a trash enclosure, and landscaping located on a 55,483 square foot lot at 115 East Boronda Road. The proposed wash building would include a conveyor belt, spinning wraps, and three access entry drive aisles. Access would be provided via internal drive-aisles within the shopping center. The entrance of the car wash begins at the northeast corner of the site and extends along the property line to maximize queuing. The building would be 108 feet in length, with a 50-foot queue for vehicles to circulate through the wash tunnel. The hours of operation are proposed to be 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. daily.
Refer to the project plans attached to the draft Conditional Use Permit for additional detail.
Specific Plan Amendment 2023-002
Per Section 2.2.3, Table 2 of the GCSP, Vehicle Washing is allowed as an accessory use to a Convenience Store use subject to a Conditional Use Permit. Applicant is requesting to amend the Specific Plan to allow Vehicle Washing as a primary use subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit. In addition, Applicant is requesting the Specific Plan be amended to allow for 1) a site specific 75% (9-space) parking reduction, 2) building orientation to face away from the street, 3) and to modify driveway access locations and width to accommodate on-site circulation of Vehicle Washing operations.

GCSP Basic Principles of New Urbanism Analysis
The 2002 Salinas General Plan defines New Urbanism (Page 367, “N” Definitions) as:
An international planning movement to reform the design of the built environment to raise quality of life and standard of living by creating better places to live. New urbanism involves "placemaking", a reordering of the built environment to promote the creation and restoration of diverse, walkable, compact, mixed use communities containing housing, workplaces, shops, entertainment, schools, parks, and civic facilities essential to the daily lives of residents within easy walking Page | 6
distance (within 10 minutes or approximately ¼ mile) of each other. Also referred to as Traditional Neighborhood Development, new urbanist communities provide a mix of well-designed uses and a variety of housing types within easy walking distance of a discernible center. Higher density development is generally at the center with progressively less intense development at the edge.
Connectivity between uses is provided via an interconnected network of roadways and bicycle and pedestrian trails. Sustainable development and alternative modes of transportation are also encouraged by New Urbanism.
The Zoning Code was updated based on the 2002 General Plan New Urbanism principles, which became effective on December 7, 2006. Consistent with the General Plan requirement for Future Growth Area development, the Gateway Center Specific Plan states that development is to incorporate the basic principles of the New Urbanism in as much as those principles are applicable to commercial sites with single anchor retail use and identified the following design elements to respond to those principles:
GCSP Basic Principles of New Urbanism Compliance
The varied building placement and massing
provides visual interest and architectural
variety and relate to the design themes of the
anchor retail user.
Substantially Compliant.
Varied building placement away from the
street with massing provides visual interest and
architectural variety.
The commercial structures and landscape
planters screen and minimize views to the
parking field for the anchor retail use while
preserving views to that structure from the
entrances.
Compliant.
Internal pedestrian pathways connect retail
structures and provide access to the bus stops.
Not Complaint.
The project would remove an internal
driveway, which also removes pedestrian
pathways connecting structures in conflict
with Figure 1.3 and 4.2 of GCSP.
Note: Refer to the related Specific Plan
Amendment. The application includes a
request to amend the GCSP to achieve
compliance with the above item.
Decorative and pedestrian-scaled planters,
seating areas, bicycle racks, and other site
furnishings will be provided.
Substantially Compliant.
The plans indicate the provision of consistent

to a future off-site pedestrian circulation
system, which will extend throughout the West
Area Specific Plan and the FGA.
Vehicle Washing Use:
Per Section 2.2.3, Table 2 of the GCSP, Vehicle Washing is only allowed as an accessory use to a Convenience Store use subject to a Conditional Use Permit. Applicant’s proposal is to amend the Specific Plan to allow stand-alone Vehicle Washing subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit without the use having to be accessory to a Convenience Store.
Staff Analysis
While vehicle related uses are not necessarily consistent with the New Urbanism principals discussed above, the applicant has provided information below supporting the Amendment. Staff notes that other uses in the shopping center include a large home improvement store and a fastfood restaurant with a drive through, which are not necessarily considered walkable uses.
Applicant’s Response
Barghausen Consulting Engineers, Inc., prepared a Project Narrative dated July 16, 2024. The project seeks an amendment to Table 2 in Section 2.2.3 of the GCSP, which currently allows the development of a car wash only in conjunction with a gasoline service station (convenience store).
Integrating a car wash with a gasoline service station entails a more intensive, vehicle-oriented service with additional environmental impact considerations. This typically involves 8 to 12 fueling dispensers, accommodating 16 to 24 vehicle fueling positions, along with multiple 20,000- gallon underground storage tanks and a 4,000-square-foot convenience retail space, often offering alcohol and tobacco products. Moreover, such facilities typically operate 24/7 versus the proposed 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. daily.
Parking Reduction
Per Section 4.3.3 of GCSP, projects will provide parking at a ratio of one space for every 292 square feet of gross building floor area. This parking ratio is slightly less than the standard City ratio of one space for every 250 square feet of gross building floor area. The proposed 3,588 square foot Vehicle Washing building requires 12 off-street parking spaces per the Specific Plan.
Applicant’s proposal is to amend the Specific Plan to provide 3 off-street parking spaces, resulting in a 75% (9-space) parking reduction.
Staff Analysis
The project would need to provide 12 off-street parking spaces to achieve compliance with Section
4.3.3 of the GCSP. However, the Applicant has provided information indicating that the parking supply will not be overwhelmed by the demand – see below.
Page | 8
Applicant’s Response
The Project Narrative described the Vehicle Washing operation and provided justification for the requested parking reduction. The proposed use provides a service where customers remain in their vehicle for the duration of the service. Customers will have the option to utilize free-to-use vacuum stations upon exiting the vehicle wash. The vacuum services (17 stalls) are limited to paid customers and members that first utilize the vehicle washing service. No retail or other services are provided that would require parking spaces. This means that the parking demand for the project is limited to employee needs only. The project anticipates two to three employees to be on site at any one time. The project provides a total of three parking spaces to satisfy employee parking demand. In addition, the Lowe's project to the north includes 20 additional parking stalls than were required. If additional staff parking is required, they could utilize those spaces, which is consistent with the shared parking provisions of the GCSP.
Building Orientation and Pedestrian Activity
Per the Objectives in Section 1.1.3 Project Objectives of the GCSP, projects are to provide a commercial area that encourages pedestrian activity and maximizes visibility and natural surveillance to the extent feasible through appropriate building orientation, design, scale, and landscaping, and connections to bus stops, the Citywide system of bicycle lanes, and planned connections to the adjacent, future development of the West Area Specific Plan project area. The Applicant’s proposal would reorient the building away from the street and does not provide amenities promoting pedestrian activity.

Not orienting the building along East Boronda Road minimizes visibility and natural surveillance as is inconsistent with Crime Prevention through Environmental Design and New Urbanism principles, as described in the General Plan and the New Urbanism District Regulations of the Zoning Code. It is staff’s opinion that the undeveloped project site with a proposed approximate lot width of 158 feet does not preclude the orientation of the proposed 108-foot in length building and its vehicle washing access from being sited along the street. Closing off pedestrian pathways discourages pedestrian activity per Figure 1.3 and deviates from the requirement of having the orientation of the internal circulation system equally balanced between the anchor retail store to the north and the retail/services stores sited along the arterial roadways to the south and west per Section 4.3.1 of the GCSP. Concerns regarding lack of pedestrian amenities such as benches and restroom facilities can be addressed as a condition of the CUP. The building would need to be relocated along the street and keep the pedestrian pathways consistent with the GCSP.
Applicant’s Response
The Project Narrative states that due to the project site's width constraints, it is not feasible for the Quick Quack building to abut the front property line. The Vehicle Wash building is 108 feet in Page | 9
length, with a required approach of 50 feet for vehicles to circulate through the tunnel.
Additionally, due to the unique use characteristics of a car wash, locating the building along the frontage would also require vehicles to enter and exit the car wash along the street with no direct access to the right-of-way. Customers would be required to exit the tunnel onto the adjacent property. The currently proposed site orientation with the building set back from the street allows for the queuing lanes to be located internal to the site with an exit that connects to the existing shopping center shared drive aisle improvements. This layout allows for optimal vehicle circulation while minimizing the potential for any adverse impacts to the right-of-way or other tenants within the shopping center.
Pedestrian Pathways/ Driveway Closure / Driveway Location and Width Per Table 3 Gateway Project Development Regulations of the GCSP, pedestrian pathways and interior driveways shall be limited to those shown in Figure 1.3 (see project site area below in Figure 1.3) and shall be a minimum of 24 feet wide with aprons that conform to City standards.
Pedestrian pathways are shown in Figure 4.2 of the GSCP (see below). The Applicant’s proposal is to close off pedestrian pathways and an existing driveway, relocate another, and increase the width of the relocated driveway from 24-feet wide to 44-feet wide.
GCSP Figure 1.3 GCSP Figure 4.2

Applicant’s Proposal
Staff Analysis
The proposed plans show a one-way entry and exit into and out of the Vehicle Washing area. This modification of interior access driveways to accommodate the Vehicle Washing building conflicts with the GCSP. The removal of the pedestrian pathways, the interior driveway closure and driveway relocations and adjusted width deviates from the requirement of having the orientation of the internal circulation system equally balanced between the anchor retail store to the north and the retail/services stores sited along the arterial roadways to the south and west per Section 4.3.1 of the GCSP. The closure of the internal pedestrian pathways and driveway conflicts with Figure
4.2 of GCSP by removing one of the primary customer internal driveway accesses and pedestrian connector paths.
The GCSP was adopted with a circulation pattern that was compliant with the Zoning Code. Per Figure 1.3 of the GCSP, the 24-foot-wide drive to accommodate two-way circulation with ninetydegree stalls on each side which is compliant with the Zoning Code. A 44-foot-wide drive aisle conflicts with the Zoning Code as it would exceed the maximum one-way driveway width of 24- feet allowed per Section 37-50.450, Table 37-50.150. Furthermore, it conflicts with Section 37-
50.520(c)(4), which requires driveway design shall be directly related to the layout of the parking area, amount of reservoir space (e.g., drive-through or drive-in service facilities), type of loading Page | 11
facilities, circulation pattern, placement of any buildings, and relation to the design of the public street, traffic control devices, traffic volumes, and placement of other driveways. Furthermore, per Section 37-50.360, Table 37-50.90, a Vehicle washing use has queue length for 6 cars per washing station.
According to Engineering, while the drive aisle modification is not consistent with the intended symmetry of the shopping center layout, it does not impact interior circulation in the shopping center or adjacent roadways. The project would need to keep the pedestrian pathways, internal driveway, and provide compliant location and width for proposed driveway to be consistent the GCSP.
Applicant’s Response
The Project Narrative explains that a wider drive aisle is required to provide access into a threelane vehicle queuing area for vehicles to queue while they wait to go through the vehicle wash. If the interior access driveway were constructed to be 24 feet wide, it would reduce the amount of vehicle queuing space and would increase the risk of vehicles stacking onto the shopping center's drive aisles and onto East Boronda Road. This request is consistent with Section 37-50.520(c)(4), which states that a driveway's design shall be directly related to the amount of reservoir space for drive-through service facilities.
Conditional Use Permit 2023-022
The Applicant has also applied for Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 2023-022 to construct and operate a 3,588 square foot Vehicle Washing building with 17 outdoor vacuums. The Planning Commission must recommend approval to the City Council of the Specific Plan Amendment for the related Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 2023-022 to be considered for a recommendation of approval to City Council.
Staff’s review of the application, materials, and plans for the Conditional Use Permit is based on the General Plan, General Plan EIR, Chapter 37 of the Municipal Code (Zoning Code), GCSP, and the GCSP MND. Review included all applicable development and design standards for the project as well as the overall site plan, drainage, and related improvements. Besides the items specified in the Applicant’s request for the Specific Plan Amendment, the items were reviewed as follows:
Design
The design proposes modulated parapet heights, stucco pilasters, warm earthen tones, hip roofs, and arched accent geometry consistent with conceptual elevations and section shown in Figure 3.4 through 3.10 and consistent with Section 3.3 Architectural Standards and Section 3.3.1 Architectural Themes of the GCSP. The design also includes utilization of auburn awnings over glazed portions of the linear façade consistent with Section 3.3.2 Buildings of the GCSP. See proposed design in relation to the GCSP design below:
Page | 12
Design Illustrations
Site Furnishings
The project plans do not show compliant trash receptacles or pedestrian lighting per Figure 3.11 and Section 3.4.2 of the GCSP; however, if approved, these improvements will be conditioned for compliance.
The plans show compliant building lighting (sconces) and solid waste and recycling enclosure consistent with Section 3.4.3 and Figure 3.12 of the GCSP; however, there will be a condition that a letter be provided from Republic Services that the solid waste and recycling enclosure meets their requirements, if approved.
Landscaping
Project proposes a minimum of one deciduous tree (minimum 15-gallon in size) for every five spaces in landscape islands; the islands shall a minimum dimension of five feet exclusive of curbs consistent with Zoning Code Section 37-50.690(g)(4) and Figure 3.1 and Section 3.2.7 of the Page | 13
GCSP.
Project proposes an approximate 20-foot-wide landscape planter along East Boronda Road and the proposed new lot line and an approximate 12-foot-wide landscape planter along the internal drives with conforming landscape screening consistent with Section 3.2.5 and Figure 3.1 of the GCSP.
Lot line Adjustment
If the CUP is approved, a condition of approval will require submittal of a Lot Line Adjustment to be processed and recorded prior to issuance of a building permit to reflect proposed lot lines.
Findings:
The Planning Commission must establish findings for a recommendation to City Council to approve or deny an application for a Specific Plan Amendment to:
1. Allow a Vehicle Washing use subject to a Conditional Use Permit (CUP);
2. Authorize a site specific 75% (9-space) parking reduction;
3. Change building orientation away from the street; and
4. Modify access driveways to accommodate Vehicle Washing building.
See attached Planning Commission Resolution for Approval or the attached Planning Commission Resolution for Denial.
Subsequently, the Planning Commission must establish findings for a recommendation to City Council to approve or deny an application for a Conditional Use Permit to construct and operate a 3,588 square foot Vehicle Washing building with outdoor vacuums in either the attached Planning Commission Resolution for Approval or the attached Planning Commission Resolution for Denial.
The Planning Commission must recommend approval to City Council of the Specific Plan Amendment for the related Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 2023-022 to be considered for a recommendation of approval to City Council.
Time Consideration:
The proposed project includes a request for a Specific Plan Amendment, which is a legislative act and is not subject to the Permit Streamlining Act (PSA).
CEQA CONSIDERATION:
If approved, the Commission will need to recommend to City Council to find the project categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15305 (Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations) for the Specific Plan Amendment that was already analyzed through the GCSP Mitigated Negative Declaration and Page | 14
Section 15332 (In-fill Development Projects) for the Conditional Use Permit, if approved.
If denied, the Commission will need to recommend to City Council to find the project statutorily exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15270 (Projects Which are Disapproved).

e. Amended Section 2.2.3, Table 2 of GCSP: Amend Table to atlow Vehicle Washing use with a CUP without the use being accessory to a convenience store.
ll
Planning Commission Resolution 2024-009
Specific Plan Amendment2023-002 and Conditional Use Permit 2023-022
f. Amended Section 4.3.3. of GCSP: Amend parking ratio for buitding R-1 to I space per 1 ,196 s.f. of gross building floor area.
The project is consistent with the following objectives:
a. Provide a shopping center in proximity to other regional retail centers expanding and diversifring the retail and services available at this central location and, due to its proximity to the other retail centers, generally reducing overall vehicle miles traveled.
b. Provide for expanded retail growth and increased local retail expenditures that will generate additional sales tax revenues for the City. c. Create an economically viable and sound plan that will facilitate the development of this new retail center.
d. Provide a shopping center that incorporates sustainable development and energy efficient principles to the extent reasonably practicable.
The development will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfore of persons residing or working in or adjacenl lo such tt development, nor detrimentdl to properties or improvemenls in the vicinity or the general welfore of the city;
The proposed amendment to the Gateway Specific Plan requires a Conditional Use Permit for a Vehicle Washing use. Each Vehicle Washing use will require a discretionary review through a CUP process. The project will not be detrimental to the people residing in the vicinity or the nearby properties and improvements. The proj ect will use detergents and soaps that are considered environmentally safe and biodegradable. The project is designed to conserve water. The Vehicle Washing use utilizes substantially less water than an individual washing their own vehicle in their driveway. It is estimated that the project will service 350 cars aday. Each car will use 28 gallons, totaling 9.800 gallons a day. If the same number ofcars were washed at home in driveways. that would urilize approximately 28.000 gallons a day. This car wash could save 18,200 gallons of water a day; therefore, providing a positive effect on the environment and surrounding vicinity.
4. The specijlc plan and resulting developmenr will be consistenr with the provisions o{ Article 8 of Chapter 3 of the California Government Code, commencing with Section 65450 as may be subsequently amended by the state of Cotifornia; The California Govemment Code sections referenced above include Sections 65450 through 65457. Of these, Section 65454 is directly applicable to the adequacy of the Specific plan Amendment and to discretionury i.1io* related to its implementation.
Califomia Govemment Code Section 65454 requires that a specific plan may not be adopted or amended unless it is consistent with the City,s General plan. As described in Finding No. 2 of this resolution, the amendment to the Gatewav center J.

site or retail business without re-entering the public road system. ln particular, the orientation of the internal circulation system is equally balanced between the anchor retail store to the north and the retail/services stores sited along the arterial roadways to the south and west.
Visibility at public street corners and at the points where private driveways connect with the public street shall be maintained as an area of unrestricted visibility consistent with zoning regulations (Salinas Municipal Code [SMC], Section 37-50.460). Plans showing conformance with these regulations shall be submitted to the City and approved prior to the issuance of a grading permit on the property.
4.3.3 Parkinq
Figure 4.3 illustrates typical parking facilities, including typical parking, and accessible parking. The overall parking plan is detailed in Figure 1.3 and Table 1. A majority of the parking is located in the central portion of the site south of the anchor retail structure and is configured to serve the anchor retail use. Additional parking is located adjacent to the retail/services structures. The parking plan for the retail/services area will be adjusted as necessary to accommodate modifications in the size and/or location of the retail/service buildings. The preliminary location of ADA-accessible spaces is illustrated in Figure 1.3, and the location, number, and configuration will meet local, state, and federal requirements. Also illustrated in Figure 1.3 is the preliminary location of priority parking for alternate fuel vehicles such as electric and hybrid vehicles. A charging facility will also be provided on-site to allow customers and employees to charge their vehicles during shopping trips or work shifts.
The proposed project will provide parking at a ratio of one space for every 292 square feet of gross building floor area, except for a Vehicle Washinq use in buildino R-'l will have a parkino ratio of 1 space per 1 ,1 96 s.f . of ross buildinq floor area ThiS parking ratio is slightly less than the standard city ratio of one space for every 250 square feet of gross building floor area. However, the peak-use hours for the anchor retail use are significanfly different from the retail/services structures along E. Boronda and San Juan Grade Roads. As a result, there will be a significant amount of shared use of the parking area. This will allow the proposed parking ratio to provide adequate parking for the project.

CITY OF SALINAS
COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: OCTOBER 22, 2024
DEPARTMENT: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
FROM: LISA BRINTON, DIRECTOR
BY: CRYSTAL CASILLAS, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
ANALYST (LIMITED-TERM)
TITLE: FY 2024-2025 SALINAS UNITED BUSINESS ASSOCIATION
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 2024-2025, 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 receive the testimony of all interested persons for or against the levy of an assessment for FY 2024-2025. Provided that protests received represent less than 50% of the assessments proposed to be levied, the Council can confirm the Annual Report for FY 2024-2025 and its proposed budget for FY 2024-2025, 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 services - support and resources they need to be successful business owners including business training, marketing, and streetscape beautification and maintenance. The SUBA BIA is located in East Salinas, its boundaries include the major commercial corridors of E. Market and E. Alisal Streets and N. 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. Following the scheduling of the September 24th public hearing, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the State of California Franchise Tax Board (FTB) suspended SUBA’s tax exempt status, which required the continuance of the public hearing to October 22, 2024. SUBA has since restored its Section 501(c)(6) tax exempt status and is now in good standing with both the IRS and the FTB, thus allowing the consideration of the levy of assessment to move forward. 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.
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 2024-2025 and protests are not withdrawn so as to reduce the protests 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.
CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:
No.
Page | 3
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 1. Given the delay with consideration of the levy of assessment, the due and payable date will be extended to December 1, 2024.

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.

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
SUBA provided Social Media Marketing for 128 businesses throughout the fiscal year. SUBA will make a stronger effort to continue increasing this objective.
However, we focused on adding many of our businesses to SEE Monterey Website and we also focused on getting businesses newly created websites.
Goal 2A- Provide 36 Social Media Posts Marketing the SUBA area throughout the 22/23 Fiscal Year
SUBA provided 24 Social Media Posts Marketing the SUBA area throughout the fiscal year. SUBA will continue to increase in this area and will continue to partner with other organizations to have a farther reach.

to address and improve monitoring of city and

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.
Sanborn/101Freeway. Addtionally, SUBA was part of the interview panel for the consultants to be chosen by the City of Salinas for the Streetscape program for the Alisal. Lastly, SUBA was part of the interview panel for the consultants chosen by the City of Salinas for the District Identity program for the Alisal.

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 selfreporting. 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, CalCoastalSBDC, 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.

TITLE: THE SALINAS BROADBAND MASTER PLAN
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion to approve a resolution adopting the Salinas Broadband Master Plan as a key strategic planning document.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The objective of the Salinas Broadband Master Plan (SBMP) is to establish an equitable citywide fiber network that prioritizes underserved and unserved communities and promotes local economic development opportunities. The SBMP outlines an actionable strategy to achieve universal broadband access that will enable the City to pursue competitive federal, state, and local broadband funding for broadband infrastructure. Many of these funding opportunities require applicants to have clearly defined projects, high-level construction cost estimates, and potential partnerships, as outlined in the SBMP, provided as Exhibit “A” to the Resolution.
BACKGROUND:
On February 21, 2023, the City, with assistance from Kimley Horn and Associates Inc (Kimley Horn), was awarded the Local Agency Technical Assistance Grant (LATA) to develop the Salinas Broadband Master Plan and Alisal Neighborhood Broadband Fiber Network Design The LATA grant provided the City of Salinas a total of $470,304 in funding to assist in efforts to provide high-speed broadband to unserved and underserved residents. The grant covered pre-construction expenses to facilitate the development of a broadband network deployment project. City staff also requested engineering drawings and standard specifications specifically for the Alisal Area to develop the Alisal Neighborhood Fiber Design Network, which is presented as a separate item for consideration.

The SBMP builds upon work the City has already completed related to network infrastructure. To support the development of network infrastructure, the Council has already taken several concrete actions, including the adoption of a “Dig-Once” Ordinance, the adoption of policies regarding the leasing of City-owned facilities and the deployment of small-cell antennas within the right-of-way and the approval of construction of City-owned fiber-optic cable and conduit connecting City Hall and the new Public Safety Building to the Crown Castle middle-mile fiber network.
Connection to the Alisal Vibrancy Plan
The Alisal Vibrancy Plan (AVP) was the result of three years of visioning, community organizing, and relationship building between the City of Salinas and Alisal residents. Community recommendations evolved into goals, policies and actions that are documented as implementation actions in the final Alisal Vibrancy Plan. The AVP Transportation and Infrastructure chapter goals listed below identify implementation actions to improve internet capabilities and access. TI 3.1.c – Improve Internet Capabilities. Work with internet service and utility providers to improve broadband internet connectivity and speeds in the Alisal. Partner with nonprofits or similar groups to provide reduced cost or free access to low-income residents and businesses. TI 3.1.d - Promote and expand free WIFI zones. Improve wireless internet speed and free accessibility at City facilities and schools.
TI 3.1.e – Install Dark Fiber. After completing the fiber network from Hartnell College to the new Public Safety Building along West Alisal Street, continue installing the network along East Alisal Street to the Hartnell College Alisal Campus.
The development of a citywide broadband network to serve the needs of its residents and businesses is one of the SBMP’s priorities. Specific to the Alisal neighborhood, the Salinas Broadband Master Plan work included development of the Alisal Neighborhood Broadband Fiber Network Design, which consists of engineering drawings and standard specifications for the City's fiber optic network for a constructible network design that is shovel-ready. The Alisal Neighborhood Broadband Fiber Network Design is being presented as a separate item for City Council consideration.

Citywide Network
The SBMP aims to build a reliable fiber network throughout City to support current and future technological initiatives in support of improving the quality of life for residents, enhance public services, and increase operational efficiency across infrastructure and utilities. The identified citywide fiber network is approximately 55.1 miles. The SBMP estimates total construction cost to be $61.7 Million for the entire network with individual projects ranging from $500,000 to $5 million, averaging around $1 million each. Cost was estimated per mile of fiber, factoring in construction expenses like connections to city buildings, traffic signals, new pull boxes, conduit, and end equipment. Additional costs include a 30% construction contingency for price fluctuations due to unforeseen conditions, inflation, and unexpected costs. Design costs are estimated at 10% of the construction cost. Installation costs are estimated at $783,000 per mile. This unit cost was applied to each network segment, resulting in a total estimated cost of $61.7 Million for the entire network. Detailed cost components and assumptions provided in Appendix D of the SBMP.
The SBMP also ensures that all traffic signals are connected through a fiber optic network. The City maintains and supports 28 intersections that utilize adaptive traffic signaling technology and 11 timeof-day with direct copper connections. Adaptive traffic signaling provides real-time traffic flow data, reporting, and visualization to facilitate data-driven decisions to optimize traffic flow and intersection safety. Traffic intersections utilizing adaptive traffic technology are currently connected through a combination of copper wire, fiber optic cabling, and wireless technology. Benefits of fiber connectivity include increased reliability, faster data transmission, enhanced security, and improved synchronization across the system.
Community Outreach and Engagement
The City provided a public comment period for the Draft Salinas Broadband Master Plan from May through July 2024. In addition, a City of Salinas General Plan Steering Committee meeting was held on May 31, 2023, and staff, with assistance from Kimley Horn, discussed the preparation of the Salinas Broadband Master Plan. Various City departments were present at this meeting and were able to provide the following considerations for its development.
The high-quality broadband services provided in identified key areas of the City of Salinas should be expanded to the rest of the City.
Community areas and gathering spaces are key locations to provide high-quality broadband services.
Improving digital literacy and the provision of digital tools are key facets of bridging the digital divide is important.
Providing free broadband services in community areas may lead to decreased human interaction was raised as a concern.
Consider future outreach efforts to inform residents about existing programs for low-income households.
Next Steps for the Salinas Broadband Master Plan
The successful implementation of the Broadband Master Plan will require time and collaboration among various City staff and departments. Given the high costs associated with broadband deployment, the City is exploring potential partnerships for this endeavor. Additionally, the City should actively seek and stay informed about funding opportunities to support the SBMP's goals. Updating citywide policies to facilitate broadband implementation is crucial, including incorporating broadband infrastructure Page | 4
promotion into the City General Plan (Visión Salinas 2040) and revising ordinances to require new developments to be fiber ready.
The Broadband Master Plan offers a roadmap for deploying a citywide fiber network, enabling Salinas to take advantage of national initiatives aimed at closing the digital divide. Notably, Senate Bill 156 creates an open-access middle mile network and upcoming programs like the California Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment Program present significant opportunities for funding and network expansion. The SBMP will guide the City in engaging stakeholders, selecting projects, and securing funding. As broadband infrastructure continues to evolve, the City should periodically update the SBMP to reflect changing needs and opportunities.

1. Comprehensive Vision and Introduction
1.1. Comprehensive Vision
Broadband facilitates people’s access to the shared wealth of educational, cultural, and informational resources. Access to these resources is dependent on quality broadband infrastructure, which is now also critical to many of the everyday activities that people take part in. To keep up with the demands of the digital space and to ensure equitable access to resources for all, quality and reliable broadband infrastructure must be prioritized. The City of Salinas understands how important it is to invest in quality and reliable broadband access for its residents. As such, they have sought financial resources to ensure that they are able to maintain a competitive edge in the current digital landscape and to achieve universal broadband access to all of its residents.
The primary objective of the Broadband Master Plan is to create an actionable strategy that the City can use to achieve universal broadband access. By empowering the City to pursue competitive federal, state, and local broadband funding sources with a strategic approach, the City can secure crucial investments for its broadband infrastructure. Many of these funding opportunities require applicants to have clearly defined projects, high-level construction cost estimates, and potential partnerships, which this Broadband Master Plan will provide.
1.2. Purpose of the Document
The Broadband Master Plan is a strategy for the City of Salinas to establish a City-wide fiber network that prioritizes underserved and unserved communities and local economic development opportunities.
The City of Salinas obtained state funding through the Local Agency Technical Assistance (LATA) program; this funding award stipulated that the City had to create a plan for infrastructure upgrades to support broadband deployment in the Alisal neighborhood and also create a plan to expand broadband deployment to the rest of the City in the future. Additionally, the funding included provisions for the development of construction plans for broadband infrastructure within the Alisal neighborhood. The Alisal Neighborhood fiber network design was completed and submitted in January 2024 for permitting. It is important to note that the LATA funding allows for planning of future broadband infrastructure but does not include funding for construction activities. The preliminary planning for a public Wi-Fi network plan in the Alisal Neighborhood is also included in this Broadband Master Plan.
The Broadband Master Plan continues the City’s ongoing efforts to improve connectivity by investing in broadband infrastructure that will support residential, business, and governmental needs. In 2015, the City of Salinas adopted a Broadband Plan to develop local broadband infrastructure and encourage local economic growth in targeted areas. Since 2015, the City of Salinas has adopted broadband-friendly policies in order to increase broadband availability and upgrade broadband infrastructure. The City has deployed fiber at the Salinas Police Department Headquarters that goes to Hartnell College, providing connections to City facilities, including City Hall. Hartnell College connects to the Connected Central Coast fiber route, which connects to major Internet hubs.
Despite having some existing fiber assets, the City of Salinas currently relies heavily on private companies for telecommunications infrastructure, resulting in an inequitable distribution of broadband May 2024 2
services. A 2019 study conducted by the City determined that there was a disparity in broadband infrastructure and service quality among residents dependent on their income1.
The Broadband Master Plan will provide a framework for fundable projects that the City can pursue to create a foundation to bridge the digital divide for its residents, stimulate the local economy, and recommend actions to prepare the City for the everchanging digital landscape of the future.

May 2024 3
2. Existing Conditions and Policies
The first step in developing a Broadband Master Plan is determining what fiber assets the City of Salinas has today. Documentation shows that the City has a limited fiber network that runs from the Salinas Police Department to Hartnell College; this fiber segment was outlined in the 2015 Preliminary Broadband Plan and only includes City facilities and infrastructure. Any future fiber assets should leverage existing fiber assets to facilitate connection to City buildings, infrastructure, and to get access to the internet. In addition to understanding existing fiber assets, it is important to identify any policies or programs that support or facilitate the installation of additional fiber.
2.1. Existing Fiber Network
The City’s existing fiber network is currently concentrated near Downtown Salinas. Its major nodes include Hartnell College (internet access), City Hall, and the Police Department. The City’s fiber network assets are summarized below:
• 288 strand fiber trunk cable, along West Alisal Street between Homestead Avenue and Work Street • 288 strand fiber trunk cable, along Homestead Avenue between West Alisal Street and Central Avenue
o Coiled for future use at Central Avenue/Homestead Avenue • 288 strand fiber trunk cable, along Church Street connecting City Hall to the West Alisal Street trunk line
• 12 strand fiber branch cable, along Main Street connecting the Gabilan Street/Main Street intersection to the West Alisal Street trunk line
• 12 strand fiber branch cable, along Main Street connecting St Luis Street/Main Street intersection to the West Alisal Street trunk line
• Empty conduit, along Main Street between Gabilan Street/Main Street intersection to Central Avenue/ Main Street intersection
2.2. Alisal Fieldwork Summary
A preliminary investigation was conducted to examine the existing conditions of City-owned facilities in the Alisal area and their potential for use as network hubs. This study was only conducted in the Alisal area, but these conditions can be used as a foundation for understanding existing conditions City-wide across other City-owned facilities. This preliminary study:
• Included a field walkthrough of project buildings to review building fiber access points, building cabling/routing, and space for communications equipment. • Evaluated existing fiber network assets and traffic signal cabinet infrastructure for potential use May 2024 4
The field walkthrough of project buildings with City IT was conducted on April 28, 2023. During the walkthrough of the project buildings, building fiber access points, building cabling/routing, and placement for major communications equipment were noted. Installation of fiber equipment requires space and a controlled environments (i.e., air conditioning). Deficiencies in regards to these two factors were noted during the walkthrough. The City-owned buildings have existing communications equipment providing internet service to the facility. The project scope only included the evaluation of City-owned buildings, excluding non-City-owned buildings that provide community services, including schools. The following buildings were selected for the field walkthrough, as shown in Figure 1:
• Salinas Police Department (312 E Alisal St, Salinas, CA 93901) • Salinas Municipal Airport
o Administrative Office (342 Airport Blvd, Salinas, CA 93905) o Terminal Building (30 Mortensen Ave, Salinas, CA 93905) • Firehouse Recreation Center (1330 E Alisal St, Salinas, CA 93905) • Salinas Fire Department Station 4 (308 Williams Rd, Salinas, CA 93905) • Breadbox Recreation Center (745 N Sanborn Rd, Salinas, CA 93905) Figure 1: City of Salinas Buildings Visited
2.2.1 Salinas Police Department
The Salinas Police Department main point of entry (MPOE) is in the server room, located on the first floor.
Six racks are free; four on the secure side (protected by a fence) and two on the unsecure side. These racks were mostly empty at the time of the field walkthrough of the facility. Seven 4” conduits enter the server room to the secure side via underground connection from a pull box located in the northeastern May 2024 5
driveway of the police department. Running through the City conduit is 288-strand fiber cable (City’s fiber trunkline to City Hall and Hartnell College). Currently, there are only fiber connections to servers on the secure side.
According to City IT, the secure side is firewalled. Any proposed improvements will need to be in the two empty racks on the unsecure side of the server room.
2.2.2. Salinas Municipal Airport
Two sites at the Salinas Municipal Airport are being considered:
• Administrative Office
• Terminal Building
Salinas Municipal Airport Administrative Office
The administrative office is a recent addition to the Salinas Municipal Airport, which is an existing facility that has been repurposed. Its MPOE is located in the building garage.
City servers are in a small overhead cabinet in the wall area connecting the reception area and the printer room. Overhead telecommunication cables enter via a pole on the eastern corner of the building. One inch conduit enters the reception area cabinet containing the City servers. This conduit appears to run through the ceiling, also entering the garage. An AT&T panel has been installed in the garage, located in the western area. The telecommunications conduit connects to the AT&T panel.
Most of the printer room is taken up by a large printer and a base cabinet that appears to be installed into the wall. While the area is secured and air conditioned, there is not much room for the installation of racks and other necessary equipment to facilitate new fiber network connections. The garage has more space in comparison, but the area is exposed to the elements.
Salinas Municipal Airport Terminal Building
The terminal building MPOE is in a small room in its northeast corner. This room is used for electrical and water utilities and supply storage. An AT&T panel is located near the entrance of the utility room along the northernmost corner. This panel coincides with what appears to be telephone equipment. The utility room is not an ideal option due to lack of space, exposure to elements, and the presence of other utilities.
Six conduits come into the room from underground and at least one of the lines feeds into the utility room ceiling. These conduits run through a telecommunications pull box just outside of the utility room. The conduit is fed across the building via the roof to the conference rooms and front desk area in its western half. There, the conduit drops into the ceiling and appear to route to the conference room, the City server, and the break room. The break room is mostly filled with office and kitchen supplies, which could be moved to make space for new racks.
The City server is located in the closet of an office space adjacent to the break room. It is connected to CAT 5 cables that come in from the ceiling. A City server equipment rack is in the break room and connected to conduit that drops from the ceiling. The server closet is mostly empty, only containing a first aid kit and fire alarm controls. However, the space is relatively small, so any racks and other equipment may need to be installed in the office space outside.
May 2024 6
2.2.3. Firehouse Recreation Center
The MPOE of the Firehouse Recreation Center is in the center of the building within a designated telecommunications closet. Besides telecommunications, the closet is also used for the storage of recreational supplies and equipment.
A City server equipment rack and AT&T panel are located within the telecommunications closet, on the left and right sides respectively. One inch conduit feeds into the City server from the ceiling, but it is unknown how it runs through the rest of the building. There is no evidence of the conduit elsewhere inside the building. A fiber cable runs from the AT&T panel into the wall. Along East Alisal St, overhead telecommunications lines go underground and run through an AT&T pull box south of the pole and north of the recreation center entrance. The conduit may go directly from the pull box to the telecommunications closet, but it does run up through the ceiling based on observation.
Even if the supplies stored in the closet are moved, the limited space and storage needs of the facility may prohibit the installation of new equipment at the existing MPOE location.
2.2.4. Salinas Fire Department Station 4
The Salinas Fire Department Station 4 MPOE is in a utility closet containing both telecommunications and electrical equipment. The utility closet is in the west side of the building towards its center.
A City server equipment rack is located above an AT&T panel. Both pieces of equipment are located on the right side of the room relative to the door. Seven conduits come from underground in the following order:
• Three 1” conduits
• One 3” AT&T conduit
• Three 1” conduits
It appears that the conduits run through the telephone pull box just outside of the entrance and directly to the MPOE. Additionally, it seems that at least one of the cables is labeled as fiber and runs into either the City or AT&T equipment.
The utility closet is half full due to electrical and telecommunications equipment and stored supplies.
There is not enough room for installation of new communications equipment. Additionally, while the facility appears to have air conditioning, the small size of the closet and existing utilities may require more temperature control.
2.2.5. Breadbox Recreation Center
The MPOE of the Breadbox Recreation Center is located within the ceiling crawlspace of the facility.
Access to this crawlspace and the nearest room to the MPOE is a supply closet located at the southwestern corner of the facility.
An AT&T panel is located on the western wall of the crawlspace. Outside of the recreation center, overhead telecommunication lines are observed entering through the southwestern corner. This is approximately the same area that the AT&T panel is located.
Although the ceiling crawl space of the Breadbox appears to be relatively spacious, the facility itself is not completely sealed from outside conditions, as evidenced through apparent openings in the crawlspace.
Additionally, to access the space, a ladder is required. Installing new racks and equipment at this site would require other improvements to the facility for accessibility and environmental control.
May 2024 7
2.2.6. Traffic Signal Cabinet Infrastructure
In addition to the City buildings, traffic signal cabinet infrastructure along a potential fiber loop was examined; these traffic signal cabinet locations are shown in Figure 2. Inventory images of the traffic signal cabinets taken by the City of Salinas in 2020 and 2021 were used to record observations.
Figure 2: City of Salinas Traffic Signal Cabinets Reviewed P and M (stretch P) cabinets are located along the potential fiber loop. A typical P cabinet set up is shown in Figure 3. The top and bottom shelves are typically filled with existing equipment. Typically there is some available space for additional equipment on the second shelf. As part of the fiber design, cabinet space will be needed for the installation of equipment to support the operation of the fiber network.
May 2024 8
Figure 3: P Cabinet at Market Street and Williams Road.
The typical M, or “stretch” P, cabinet set up is shown in Figure 4. The second and bottom shelves are typically filled with existing equipment. Some space is usually available on the top and third shelf.
Generally, the top shelf has a display monitor, and the third shelf has the controller and signal monitor.
Figure 4: M Cabinet at Sanborn Road and Laurel Drive.
These types of cabinets are also present City-wide. As the average capacity of these cabinets have been observed to be limited due to the amount of equipment already present, there is no space to allow these cabinets to house the new equipment necessary to be used as hubs for the fiber network. These cabinets also lack the environmental controls needed to sustain the operations of fiber network hub equipment.

2.3 City-wide Fiber Infrastructure Opportunities
City fiber is only present within Downtown Salinas along Alisal Street and Main Street. The majority of the fiber present in Salinas belongs to private ISPs. These ISPs are a mix of incumbents and smaller providers that do not currently provide broadband connections to significant portions of the City, namely its northern areas. The City only has conduit leasing agreements with a selection of the providers that have existing broadband assets. These agreements allow the City to utilize conduit and fiber along Sanborn Road that spans the length of the Alisal and along a few major corridors in South Salinas.
2.4 Existing Policies
The City previously adopted a Broadband Plan in 2015 that sought to develop its broadband infrastructure and encourage local economic growth in specific areas. This Broadband Plan led to the adoption of policies that promote the implementation of conduit and broadband infrastructure.
2.4.1. Alisal Vibrancy Plan
The City adopted the Alisal Vibrancy Plan as a strategic planning document in November 2019. The Vibrancy Plan provides a framework for the future of the Alisal Neighborhood via goals, actions and policies that were developed through community input. Among the items discussed within the Vibrancy Plan were those pertaining to broadband infrastructure and improvements to Internet accessibility.
The Alisal Vibrancy Plan identified upgrading broadband services as one of the key areas of improvement for the Alisal Neighborhood Revitalization Area. The Vibrancy Plan found that upgrading broadband services could bridge the digital divide by providing access to telecommunication, improving education, and stimulating economic growth. To do so, the City needs to invest in modern Internet connections and collaborations with Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to build capacity and support future growth within Alisal. These improvements are outlined in Goal TI 3, specifically in Policy TI 3.1 within the Vibrancy Plan.
There are also adjacent goals and policies listed in the Alisal Vibrancy Plan that can enhance and be enhanced by the benefits of the development of improved broadband infrastructure. These include housing development efforts that implement affordable multi-family residences, mixed-use development goals, business financial assistance, educational opportunities, and the promotion of the Alisal Neighborhood as a cultural and tourist destination.
2.4.2. Chinatown Revitalization Plan
The City adopted the Chinatown Revitalization Plan in December 2019 as a strategic planning document.
Similar to the Alisal Vibrancy Plan, the Revitalization plan provides a framework for the future of the Chinatown Neighborhood driven by the community in order to maintain its unique cultural identity throughout the proposed improvements. Among the items discussed within the Revitalization Plan were those pertaining to broadband infrastructure and improvements to Internet accessibility.
Included within the Revitalization Plan is a policy (TI 4.1) to upgrade above and underground infrastructure to support business activity and new developments. Communications infrastructure upgrades, specifically upgrading broadband services, are a priority for the City in this area.
2.4.3. Dig Once Policy
The Salinas City Council approved a “dig once” ordinance on November 15, 2016, that requires all underground utility construction activities to notify telecommunications companies so that they may add their own conduit for future use. It was enacted to modernize the communication infrastructure of historically underserved areas of the City that leverages construction activities within City right of way to May 2024 10
minimize public inconvenience. This enables the City to simultaneously pursue projects that can aid the installation of fiber, especially in unserved and underserved areas.
2.4.4. General Plan Update (Visión Salinas 2040)
Visión Salinas 2040 is an update to the City’s General Plan that lays out a blueprint for the City’s future development that reflects the priorities and values of the community. The installation of fiber is supported by the principles that guide the update and help in achieving the goals of the update. Improvement of equitable access to resources, improving existing City infrastructure, increasing community engagement, supporting the education of youth, and stimulating the local economy are all enhanced by the increased connectivity provided by fiber. This update is expected to be considered for adoption at the end of 2024.
2.4.5. 2017 Economic Development Element
The 2017 Economic Development Element (EDE) is intended to be a guide for the development of City policy through action priorities identified by economic development needs. One of the improvements proposed by the EDE is the improvement of communication infrastructure with the installation of dark fiber throughout the City in order to attract new businesses and jobs to the community.
2.4.6. Microtrenching Standard
Standard Detail 16B was adopted in 2022 by the City as a standard for microtrenching. The standard detail provides provisions for installing fiber in a more shallow depth conduit. The adoption of this standard will encourage more fiber development due to the relative lower cost of installing fiber using this method.

3. Needs Assessment
Prior to developing a plan and future projects to support broadband deployment in the City, it is important to understand what the City and its residents actually need. The City-wide fiber network must address and meet the needs of the City’s various stakeholders. These stakeholders include the various City departments, City residents, businesses, and community-based organizations (CBOs). The various City stakeholders were engaged through meetings, surveys, and workshops. Their expressed needs have been recorded in order to guide the development of the broadband network.
3.2. Salinas Department Head Survey
Following the Steering Committee meeting, a survey was distributed to City of Salinas department heads to gather additional information for the development of the Broadband Master Plan.
The following City departments responded to the survey:
• Library & Community Services
• Police
• Development Engineering
• Fire Department
• Community Development
3.2.1. Broadband Needs
Responders identified that low-cost, high speed broadband services to unserved and underserved businesses and residential communities are the highest priority need. This is aligned with the needs identified by the Alisal community in the Alisal Vibrancy Plan.
3.2.2. Future Expansion
Almost all parties that responded to the survey agreed that broadband in the City of Salinas should be expanded to cover the entire City. Public safety departments like the Salinas Police Department and Fire Department both currently utilize existing broadband networks. Survey responses from both departments indicated that the expansion of modern broadband services for Salinas could improve public safety overall as this will enhance their monitoring and response capabilities. During the Steering Committee meeting, members of different City departments expressed interest in using broadband infrastructure to improve digital literacy and to provide better digital tools.
While the specific grant that is funding the Broadband Master Plan does not stipulate defining ways to close digital literacy gaps, the projects defined as part of the Master Plan can be used to leverage opportunities to close digital literacy gaps through deployment. Some of these opportunities include identifying grant funding opportunities to fund construction efforts, which would mean faster deployment of broadband. Additionally, the Master Plan encourages expansion of broadband coverage through partnerships with local providers.
In the early part of the design for the Alisal neighborhood fiber network, the City identified specific facilities they wanted to connect to the future broadband network. These facilities included recreational centers and spaces for senior citizens to gather. With the deployment of faster and more reliable broadband, these public spaces can be used to provide different opportunities for citizens for all ages to learn how to better use the digital tools that exist today. As an example, the City or other interested May 2024 12
parties could host classes at some of the public spaces to teach community members how to leverage tools to learn new languages or learn how to communicate and collaborate more with programs like Google Docs or Zoom.
3.2.2. Community Outreach
Public outreach was key to the development of the Broadband Master Plan. From conversations with City staff, programs to provide low-income households with broadband services (e.g., Comcast Internet Essentials) were identified. However, as noted in the Steering Committee meeting, the City of Salinas wants to improve outreach efforts to expand residents’ knowledge of these programs.
Previously completed community outreach efforts indicated that residents and key community members in the City have identified community workshops and social media campaigns as the most effective means of community engagement and to spread awareness of projects to residents. Additionally, some of the survey responders indicated that they currently partner with community organizations for outreach and are willing to leverage their existing relationships with these groups for the purposes of the Broadband Master Plan.
3.3. Salinas General Plan Steering Committee Meeting
A City of Salinas General Plan Steering Committee meeting was held on May 31st, 2023, to discuss the Salinas Broadband Master Plan. Various City departments were present at this Steering Committee and were able to provide the following considerations for its development. • The high-quality broadband services provided in identified key areas (i.e., Alisal, Chinatown, Downtown) of the City of Salinas should be expanded to the rest of the city due to the current inconsistent service
• Community areas and gathering spaces are key locations to provide high-quality broadband services • The City is not interested in being an Internet Service Provider (ISP) and will continue to work with local carriers for broadband deployment
• Improving digital literacy and the provision of digital tools are key facets of bridging the digital divide is important to the City
• Some concern was raised regarding providing free broadband services in community areas due to a possibility of decreased human interaction.
• Consider future outreach efforts to inform residents about existing programs for low-income households
3.4. Data Collection
The City-wide broadband network was informed by the location of existing unserved communities. To determine these locations, the following resources were used:
• The California Advanced Services Fund (CASF) Eligible and Priority Eligible locations shown in the California Interactive Broadband Map
• The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) Federal Funding Account (FFA) Public Map unserved mass market locations.
These maps as available at the time of this report are provided in Appendix A and B.
May 2024 13
Clusters of unserved locations can be found evenly across the City which largely overlap across both maps. The City-wide lack of adequate broadband services is indicative of the need for a modern fiber network to provide high-speed connections to the City’s residents.
May 2024 14
4. Gap Analysis
There is currently a significant difference between the City’s broadband infrastructure and the needs of the community. The City has some fiber coverage in the Downtown area and some leasing agreements with ISPs in other parts of the City. A significant investment is needed to provide more continuous and quality broadband coverage throughout the entire City. The City is seeking to bridge the digital divide by providing its residents a network that will address community needs at homes, in the workplace, and at various community spaces. By identifying these gaps, the network can be designed to address them.
4.1. Unserved and Underserved Communities
Per CPUC Decision 22-04-055, the following qualify a location for being designated as unserved or underserved:
• For a location to be considered unserved, it must have Internet download speeds of less than 25 Mbps and upload speeds of less than 3 Mbps.
• To be considered underserved, a location must have Internet download speeds between 100 Mbps and 25 Mbps and upload speeds between 10 Mbps and 3 Mbps.
The California Interactive Broadband Map (Appendix A) indicates residential and mixed-use broadband serviceable locations that are unserved. These locations are classified as “eligible” or “priority eligible.” “Eligible” locations are those that fall under the definition of being unserved. If a location has Internet download speeds of less than 10 Mbps and upload speeds of less than 1 Mbps, the location is designated as “priority eligible”. The Interactive Broadband Map shows a large number of “priority eligible” locations that are distributed relatively evenly across the City. However, there are large clusters of eligible and priority eligible locations in the following areas:
• Downtown Salinas
• Los Olivos Village Condominium Complex and Cambridge Village Townhouses (South Salinas) • North Main Street from Alvin Drive to Boronda Road
o Including Willowood Townhomes and Palm Court Apartments • South Main Street from John Street to Blanco Road
• Lamplighter Salinas and California Hawaiian Mobile Estates (northwest Salinas) • Rancho Salinas Mobile Park and Sherwood Lake Mobile Home Park (near Downtown Salinas) • Alisal Neighborhood (as defined by the Alisal Vibrancy Plan) • Monte Bella Neighborhood homes along Marsala Way
The CPUC FFA map (Appendix B) similarly shows unserved locations aggregated into groups (hexbins), using the same definition provided by the CPUC for unserved locations. There is significant overlap between the two maps, as all locations listed for the Interactive Broadband Map also have clusters of hexbins in the CPUC FFA map. However, there areas within Salinas that show large clusters of unserved locations in the CPUC FFA map that are not included within the Interactive Broadband Map. For this reason, both maps were used when determining priority areas for broadband deployment. Both maps are also currently being used to validate funding needs so it is important to align City needs with areas that have already been identified by the CPUC.
4.2. Community Spaces
May 2024 15
Community spaces, including City-owned buildings, libraries, schools, and parks can help bridge the digital divide by providing free Wi-Fi and educational services that are accessible online. However, several of these community centers are also designated as unserved or underserved locations or within an area with reduced broadband service. Poor Internet connection reduces these facilities’ capability to serve the community in meaningful ways as it limits the resources available to users.
The fiber network also requires hubs to provide redundancy and reduce points of failure within the network. Community spaces can become the locations of these hubs granted that they can be furnished with new fiber equipment (e.g., racks and servers). However, not all of these facilities can accommodate this equipment due to the conditions needed to properly hold and maintain it. The proposed equipment requires space for installation and controlled environments for sustained operation. Space also determines the configuration of the new equipment and the degree of temperature control needed.
Additional environmental control equipment (e.g., air conditioning units) require additional space. Of the City facilities that were part of the preliminary study in the Alisal Neighborhood, neither of the community centers (the Breadbox and the Firehouse Recreation Center) had adequate spaces to serve as a hub.
4.3. City Operations
Current City operations are hindered by the lack of modern broadband infrastructure. Fiber connections increase the security of data being transferred across the City, the relative speed.at which data is being transferred, and the efficiency of system-wide operations. Currently, only a few City departmental buildings and City equipment within the limited span of the existing fiber network are being serviced by fiber, which results in unequal connectivity across these City facilities.
4.3.1. City Department Facilities
Two of the six City buildings that were part of the preliminary study were found to be ideal for new fiber equipment: the Salinas Municipal Airport Terminal Building and the Salinas Police Department. The other buildings did not have adequate facilities to become fiber hubs, as they did not have space for new fiber equipment, sufficient temperature control equipment, or both.
4.3.2. City Traffic Signal Cabinets
The traffic signal cabinets surveyed in the Alisal Neighborhood along the proposed fiber network have been found to be mostly full. The proposed equipment does not require a large amount of space, but some cabinets are completely full or organized in a way preventing the installation of proposed fiber equipment.

5. Proposed Project List
A City-wide fiber optic network can be costly and challenging to deploy. Factors such as installation costs, project segments, overall benefits, funding options, and operations and maintenance have to be considered when planning for deployment and operation of this type of network. This Broadband Master Plan includes an Implementation Plan which serves as the roadmap for the deployment of the City-wide fiber optic network. It is anticipated that this fiber optic network will be divided into segments that will be deployed gradually because of its overall size and overall cost. As a result, the proposed network was divided into different segments that are recommended to be built in different phases depending on potential partnerships or available funding. The order of deployment for the segments was determined using a prioritization criteria developed with in collaboration with project stakeholders. These segments, phases, the prioritization methodology used to determine these segments, and their deployment timeline are described within this document.
5.1. Project Segments
The proposed City-wide fiber network is a total of 55.1 miles long. Due to the size and high cost of implementation of the overall network, it was divided into smaller segments. Dividing the network into smaller segments allows the network to be built out through smaller projects that are within the typical limits of available local, regional, state, and federal funding resources for broadband infrastructure.
Multiple new funding sources are now available for broadband projects, especially those that benefit underserved and unserved communities. Considering the typical funding limits of these available resources, the following criteria were used to make funding and construction of the City-wide fiber network more feasible:
• Network segments are between zero to five miles long
• Each segment reaches as many Multiple Dwelling Units (MDUs) as possible • Each segment connects to as many City facilities and traffic signals as possible By applying these criteria to the fiber network, a total of 32 segments were developed. Each segment can be treated as a standalone project that will gradually comprise the overall City-wide network. Each of these projects can be funded separately or in phases by any available funding source. Figure 5 shows a map of the proposed project segments and a summary of the projects is provided in Table 1 below.

5.2. Prioritization
Once the segments were split up into projects described in Section 2, it was important to apply prioritization criteria so that the City could determine which projects would provide the highest overall benefit through construction. The criteria and methodology also serves to determine construction phasing for the proposed projects. Additionally, the prioritization allows the City to be competitive when applying for funding sources that are currently available and that could become available in the future.
The following prioritization methodology criteria was created with input from Project Stakeholders:
The quality and reliability of present broadband, determined by the overlap of the California Advanced Services Fund (CASF) Eligible and Priority Eligible locations shown in the California Interactive Broadband Map and the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) Federal Funding Account (FFA) Public Map unserved mass market locations, which are provided in Appendix A and B. For this criterion, overlap between the two maps show a greater need for improved broadband services in the area.
The current availability of broadband options that can be used by the public. The proximity of each proposed network segment to existing fiber assets was determined using existing communications network data provided by the City. The number of existing fiber assets adjacent to the proposed network segments are proxy indicators of broadband service costs in the area. The greater the number of fiber assets provided by different parties show a wider range of choices available to customers and more potential competition, which can be an indicator of reduced broadband costs.
Facilitation of economic growth through potential connections to businesses within the vicinity of the proposed network segment. Local businesses now require greater connectivity to participate in the online marketplace and access tools and resources that will help their business grow. The City wants to maximize the number of businesses that can be potentially connected to the City-wide fiber network, making network segments that capture more businesses along their routes a higher priority.
Segments that connect to public spaces (i.e., libraries, community centers, and parks) where broadband will serve large populations. The main challenge new broadband infrastructure funding sources hopes to resolve is closing the digital divide. Public spaces that allow people to access highspeed Internet for free is a City priority and will benefit several groups of people, especially families that cannot afford these services at home.
Percentage of school-aged population within Census block groups (between 5-17 years old) that will be users of the future network. A lack of Internet access puts children at an educational disadvantage as more tools to help students thrive become accessible online. By prioritizing segments that impact the most students at the K-12 level, the City can address bridging the digital divide in education more effectively.
Supports existing City operations (i.e., traffic signals, emergency response, and transit operations) and uses existing City-accessible conduits and fiber. Integrating City infrastructure with the proposed fiber network has the potential of improve traffic operations system-wide by allowing the use of real-time monitoring and improved coordination through high-speed communications. This can also allow the City an opportunity to implement innovative smart city applications.
Each project was then ranked out of 100 possible points using the criteria described. The criteria were weighted based on their overall benefit to City residents. These weights are as follows:

5.3. Project Cost
Understanding the cost of each project is integral to the planning of the full network deployment. To develop costs for each network segment, an estimated cost per mile of fiber being installed was compiled.
The construction cost estimates included connections to City buildings and/or traffic signals, new pull boxes for access to the proposed fiber cable, new conduit for housing the proposed cable, and end equipment needed for the operation of the network. To expedite fiber installation and to reduce costs, most of the network will be installed in conduit placed in the ground using microtrenching techniques.
Microtrenching typically uses a shallower trench compared to regular trenching for fiber optic cable which reduces initial installation costs and is less invasive than using other trenches. This installation type and its associated cost savings are reflected in the price per mile that was developed for the high-level May 2024 23
planning estimate. The City has also recently developed a standard for microtrenching that makes it easier to build out fiber using this method. Pricing for each of the elements included in the planning cost estimate is subject change, so it is recommended that the estimate be updated every few years to reflect present market conditions.
In addition to the construction costs, a construction contingency and design costs were also added to the planning level cost estimate. These costs were included in order to provide the City a comprehensive estimate of the implementation of each project. The contingency applied is 30% of the overall construction cost to account for price fluctuations. It includes items that may impact construction bid, such as unforeseen site conditions discovered during design, inflation of equipment costs, inflation of Contractor labor costs, and unexpected construction costs after bid that are not allocated on any specific bid item. The contingency does not include “soft costs” such as design, project management, inspection, and system integration. The cost for the design of the network is typically 10% of the overall construction cost.
Using design assumptions and the current unit costs, the estimated cost of the fiber installation per mile is $783,000. Appendix D details the specific elements that comprise this overall cost for construction and the assumptions that were made.
The estimated cost per mile was then applied to each segment of the City-wide fiber network. Figure 6 shows a map of the proposed project segment prioritization and Table 4 below summarizes the costs to build-out the fiber network outside of the Alisal area.

The total cost of the proposed City-wide fiber network is $61,694,919. Each project is estimated to cost between $500,000 and $5M, with an average cost of approximately $1M.
The design of the Alisal Neighborhood Fiber Network was completed using the same LATA funding that the City was awarded. The total length of the proposed Alisal neighborhood network is 10.2 miles. The estimated cost for the implementation of the Alisal Neighborhood Fiber Network is shown below:

6. Alisal Neighborhood Public Network
Additional broadband coverage in the City can be used for a variety of different applications. As we focus on closing the digital divide, providing residents access to a free Wi-Fi network is something that can be implemented by the City or a third-party broadband provider. The City of Oakland used emergency funds distributed during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic to offer free public Wi-Fi to residents in unserved and underserved areas through the use of existing City fiber. In Salinas, a public Wi-Fi network could be deployed in City buildings and in outdoor recreational spaces such as parks by leveraging the proposed broadband network.
6.1 Wireless Technology Research
To determine the feasibility of implementing a public Wi-Fi network consideration was given to equipment that would be required to support this public network including their cost, where this equipment would be mounted, and how the equipment would be connected.
6.1.1 Equipment
At a high-level, equipment that supports a public network includes the following:
Fiber Switches
Fiber switches manage and route fiber optic signals within an optical network infrastructure. This enables multiple devices to communicate over fiber optic cables by receiving data packets from one device and forwarding them to the destined device. Unlike traditional copper-based Ethernet switches, fiber switches are designed specifically to handle fiber optic connections. This allows for Internet connection through the network with higher bandwidth and low latency.
Wi-Fi Access Points
Fiber switches establish connections to the Internet using Wi-Fi access points (APs). These wireless network devices serve as a central hub for wireless communication within a local area network (LAN). By transmitting and receiving wireless signals connectivity between a network to other devices (e.g., smartphones and laptops), APs enable access the Internet.
Wi-Fi Repeaters
Wi-Fi repeaters amplify and retransmit an AP’s signal, effectively expanding the coverage area of the network. The placement of repeaters can affect network performance and should be positioned to prevent signal interference and guarantee uninterrupted connectivity.
6.1.2. Network Topology
Network topology, or the equipment layout, is important to the overall operation of a system and the equipment that comprises it. The City must consider which network topology to implement for its public network.
Point-to-Point
One topology that can be utilized is a point-to-point network that establishes direct connections between 2 endpoints without intermediary devices. For this project, point-to-point networks would facilitate direct wireless communication between various APs and the central network infrastructure. This would reduce the amount of equipment and the expense of operating the network. However, point-to-point networks are limited in their coverage area and lack redundancy.
May 2024 29
Mesh
Another method that can be used is a mesh network, which is more decentralized than a point-to-point network. Rather than a unidirectional or bidirectional flow of data between 2 points, a mesh network operates with each node acting as both a transmitter and receiver, forming a distributed system where data travels from node to node to reach its destination. Though this arrangement requires more equipment and consequently, more time and cost towards installation and maintenance, implementing a mesh network ensures better coverage over a large area, is easily scalable, and results in more reliable data transmission due to redundancy.
6.1.3. Equipment Installation
Once the number of devices and the way in which they will be connected (i.e. topology) are identified, the next step should be to consider how these devices will be installed and where. Equipment that supports a public Wi-Fi network is typically mounted on existing traffic signal poles, existing street lighting poles, existing buildings or other structures, and sometimes on completely new structure. As such, installation should also consider what types of permits or approval may be needed for the mounting of these devices.
City of Salinas Resolution No. 20810
Per City of Salinas Resolution No. 20810, a Wireless Service Facility Encroachment Permit must be issued by the City before any wireless broadband components are installed. The conditions for obtaining permit approval vary based on the type of structure where the wireless facility will be installed.
When applying for this permit, applicants should be prepared to provide written documentation that the wireless facilities follow federal emission standards, as well as proof of insurance complying with City specifications. Applicants must also obtain all approvals required under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). When these facilities need to be replaced, upgraded, relocated, or modified, a new permit will need to be issued, unless the City Engineer or their designee deems it as minor.
If the network design proposes an AP or repeater to be mounted on a utility pole, the pole owner must grant authorization to either use or replace that pole, and the applicant must give proof that the facility follows the design and co-location restrictions of the pole owner. The City of Salinas is not allowed to install poles solely for the purpose of supporting a public Wi-Fi network.
Streetlights are the most viable option to mount APs and repeaters since they can help carry signals at heights with minimal obstruction and can connect from a traffic signal cabinet to a park. Before installing a device on these poles, applicants must go through a reservation process set up by the City. A flowchart outlining this process is included in Appendix E.
Applicants should also refer to City of Salinas Standard Plans 49 – Streetlight Foundation, 51 – Streetlight Base Details and Pull Box Installation, and 52 – Streetlight Pole and Arm for specific requirements when installing new poles.
City of Salinas Resolution No. 21080
Another City directive that should be considered when installing equipment to support a public Wi-Fi network is City Resolution No. 21080. It lists conditions that must be met in order to excavate in City rightof-way. An excavation project may only occur once on a given City street within a 5-year timeframe.
Additionally, telecommunications service providers must be notified about the project at least 30 days before it starts in order to have the opportunity to install, upgrade, co-locate, repair and/or improve their facilities. However, providers are responsible for covering their expenses, including permitting. A permit for excavation is also required. The Director of Public Works (or their designee) may exempt projects from May 2024 30
these requirements when the project is deemed not practical or feasible, though this would require a written request for an exemption.
6.2. PG&E Outreach
Another option for device mounting includes poles or other infrastructure owned by Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E). Requirements for co-locating equipment to support public Wi-Fi are different for PG&E as compared to private owners and the City. Coordination with PG&E will also likely be required to power up the devices that support the public Wi-Fi network. Some of the specific requirements that must be considered are listed below.
6.2.1 CPUC General Order 95
California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) General Order 95 provides requirements and specifications for design of any overhead lines, construction, and maintenance for all overhead electrical supply and communications facilities. The order outlines specific requirements related to distances between colocated utilities as well as maximum weights that are allowed to be placed on poles from onset or through future modifications (i.e. Installing equipment to support a public Wi-Fi network). PG&E states that whenever any poles are being used to co-locate telecommunications devices, they will be subject to all of the requirements and specifications laid out by CPUC GO 95.
6.2.2 Other Requirements
PG&E outlines specific requirements that must be met in order to co-locate telecommunications equipment on new or existing facilities. Most of these are outlined in the “Electrical & Gas Service Requirements” book also known as the “Green Book.” PG&E has “pole rate” agreements that they will enter into with telecommunications carriers and cable TV companies to allow their existing infrastructure to be used; these rates are approved by CPUC.
At a high-level, PG&E requires the following when agreeing to allow third parties to use their infrastructure (namely poles) for the mounting of communications equipment:
- The existing street light pole (or other facility) must be able to support the number of proposed devices to be mounted on the pole, a PG&E service meter, and a disconnect switch - The installation of third-party equipment and PG&E required equipment must meet all of the requirements set forth by PG&E and CPUC General Order 95 - Third-party communications equipment must have an ownership label with contact information, site identification information, and a disconnect switch that will shut off RF transmission - Third-party communications equipment and all required materials need to be furnished by the company requesting the installation
- Inspection and approval are required by a qualified PG&E inspector - Any changes to an existing installation which require the pole to be replaced require the thirdparty company to meet all requirements set forth by PG&E - Installation of specific wiring and circuit breakers
- No loads greater than 68 amps for any proposed equipment
6.3. Wireless Network Design
The City of Salinas expressed interest in providing a public Wi-Fi network within the Alisal neighborhood and also at select locations throughout the City. These locations were typically City buildings or recreational facilities such as parks. Utilizing the proposed Citywide fiber network, the City or a third-party provider can implement a point-to-point network, a mesh network, or a direct network. As an example, the May 2024 31
Alisal neighborhood fiber network provides direct connections to all City buildings and recreational facilities within the Alisal neighborhood. This means that the fiber network will support the Wi-Fi network directly. Otherwise, most parks are close to traffic signal cabinets where Wi-Fi network infrastructure could potentially be installed.
The table below summarizes the needs for each location and the type of network topology that could be used.

There are four separate fiber access point scenarios described in the table above:
- In-building: the fiber access point is directly in the building. This is true for locations that are in the Alisal neighborhood.
- Adjacent traffic signal: a traffic signal is close to one of the boundaries of the park or building so fiber could be accessed here for public wi-fi deployment - Nearby traffic signal – need additional infrastructure: a traffic signal is somewhat close to one of the boundaries of the park or the building but additional conduit and fiber may be needed to reach the park or building
- Need additional infrastructure: park or building location is not close to any traffic signals or other fiber access points so fiber and conduit need to be extended to provide public Wi-Fi; higher project costs
Based on the above high-level cost estimate, a public Wi-Fi network in the Alisal neighborhood would cost around $300,000. The citywide public Wi-Fi network would have a cost of $3,140,000. Both values and locations that comprise each of the figures are summarized in Table 6.

7. Available Funding
7.1. Financing
There are currently many different funding sources and mechanisms that can be used to build out fiber optic networks. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, passed in 2021 resulted in the development of multiple funding sources that fund broadband infrastructure projects to benefit underserved and unserved communities. The expenses that the City will incur by implementing a large City-wide fiber network can be offset by these grants. The grant programs summarized in the following table are potential sources that can fund the construction of network segments in order of their determined priority.

Additional means of funding the project include financing options like the Broadband Loan Loss Reserve Fund, which enhances credit related to the financing of local broadband infrastructure development, and private financing options. The City may also consider funding opportunities that can facilitate fiber or conduit installment via adjacent improvements. These opportunities may not be applicable to stand-alone fiber optic projects, but projects that install fiber in conjunction with another infrastructure project component can be competitive. These options may be considered in the case that public funding sources are not enough to fund the deployment of the full network.

8. Implementation
8.1. Project Phasing
The prioritization criteria was used to identify which projects would result in the highest overall benefit to the City of Salinas and its residents, however, building out projects in the order in which they were prioritized is not the most effective way to implement the network. For example, some of the projects that are high priority are not near any existing fiber infrastructure, City-owned or privately owned. Fiber networks still require access to the internet through nodes that are leased at certain locations. To achieve full benefits of the fiber network, construction of the projects must be done in phases. The phases will focus on projects that can leverage connections to existing infrastructure first and build out areas that are not close to any existing infrastructure last. These phases can be best defined as the following:
• Short-term: 0 – 10 years
• Medium-term: 10 – 20 years
• Long-term: 20+ years
8.1.1. Short-Term Projects
The segments recommended to be completed in the short-term include the following projects: 1, 8, 10, 12, 15, 17, 18, 23, & 25. These projects will be recommended to be completed by the City first. They are located along Main Street, extend from Main Street, and serve corridors within the Downtown area of the City. After evaluating the City-wide network, these segments are in areas that scored high according to the prioritization criteria. This is due to their proximity to existing fiber infrastructure that the City can connect to, high densities of unserved and underserved populations in the vicinity, and potential to connect to several institutions key to the growth of the City. These segments will create the backbone of the greater network as it extends throughout the whole north-south span of the City and begins to extend to other areas.
8.1.2 Medium-Term Projects
The segments recommended to be completed in the medium-term consists of the following projects: 4, 13, 14, 16, 19, 20, 21, & 22. These projects are located in West Salinas and north of the Alisal. They will extend the fiber network to parts of the City that also experience high need, but either require the projects listed as short-term to be constructed prior to their installation or are less critical to the construction of the overall network.
8.1.3. Long-Term Projects
The segments recommended as long-term projects include: 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, 24, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31,
32. These projects are mostly located in East Salinas, including the new developments along Boronda Road, and in South Salinas. These projects have lower densities of underserved and unserved populations within their vicinity. The new developments along Boronda Road in northeast Salinas may be subject to new City initiative and policies that install fiber or conduit, which makes evaluating the availability of broadband options and quality of broadband services difficult. Due to being new developments, it is also unknown what other facilities and institutions may be added to the area. As a result of these factors and their distance from the existing City-accessible infrastructure, the future areas of growth in northeast Salinas are relegated to being long-term projects.
May 2024 36
8.2. Operations & Maintenance
The implementation of a fiber network includes costs and responsibilities outside of construction and design. Once completed, the fiber network requires that appropriate measures must be taken to ensure that equipment continues to operate properly. These measures include preventative maintenance to mitigate future failures within the network, timely responsive maintenance, and necessary end-of-life replacements and upgrades in the case that equipment costs more to maintain rather than replace.
The implementation of the City-wide fiber network requires collaboration and partnership among multiple City departments, Internet Service Provider(s), and other external partner agencies. Each party must have clearly defined roles and responsibilities, which will be crucial to the maintenance of the fiber network. These will be more comprehensively defined once a governance structure has been decided.
Installation of fiber infrastructure using microtrenching techniques may result in the fiber optic cable being impacted by future construction in the area of installation. This can result in more costs due to required replacement of fiber optic cable. To reduce any costs incurred by damaging the City-wide network or to prevent the damaging of the network, an inventory of installed fiber should be developed. This inventory can be used to positively identify fiber network locations for contractors to be aware of during construction projects.
Equipment located within traffic signal cabinets, including switches and termination panels, also require monitoring and maintenance. These pieces of equipment require more frequent maintenance than the fiber optic cable. This includes visual checks of equipment at regular intervals and scheduled maintenance. The monitoring and maintenance of equipment located within traffic signal cabinets should be conducted by the properly assigned stakeholder.
8.3. Governance
When deciding the governance structure by which the City and possible private partners that will operate and maintain the proposed fiber network, it is critical to consider the model’s efficacy in serving the needs of the City. This includes determining ownership of the network, operational responsibilities, and the partners that the City may use to achieve its broadband goals. The considerations for the governance and operation of the network are provided in the following section.
8.3.1. Ownership and Operational Considerations
Ownership
Network ownership grants the assigned party more power regarding decisions made for the network, including the ability to determine the overall shape of the network and agreements with other parties.
Under municipal ownership, the City will have the most control regarding the locations that the proposed fiber network will be able to provide service to. This also means that the City is responsible for the costs of conduit and fiber installation. The size and high cost of implementing the overall network presents a large financial risk for the City which necessitates the pursuit of funding sources to help pay for its installation.
In the case that a private party is given ownership of the City-wide fiber network, the City is released from the responsibility of installing fiber and the costs associated with it. However, the City will have limited, if any, control over many decisions made with the network. If the City pursues a private partnership that results in the private ownership of the network, the City must reach an agreement that will align the priorities of the private partner with its own.
May 2024 37
Operation
As the network operator, the City (as a utility provider) is accountable to its subscribers (i.e. residents) via an election cycle which empowers their subscribers to influence outcomes related to and services provided by the network. In this case, bridging the digital divide remains a top priority and enforces equitable pricing and services as this model is owned and driven by the community. However, operating the network requires considerable resources that the City may not have the availability to allocate. These operational costs include the hiring of personnel to operate and maintain the network, which requires the City to enter a competitive labor market.
In a privately-operated model, the private partner will handle network operation and maintenance with already-present resources and personnel. The ISP will take on some or all of the operational and maintenance costs depending on the structure of its agreement with the City, reducing the financial burden placed on the City. However, private ISPs are incentivized by maximizing the profits from the network, resulting in services being priced more expensively. Depending on the structure of the agreement between the City and the partnered ISP, the ISP may wield significantly more power over the City that prevents the needs of its residents from being sufficiently met. However, in the scenario that the City owns the network and the ISP operates it, the needs of residents will be considered alongside profits, resulting in a middle ground that may be desirable for both parties.
8.3.2. Business Models
Closed Network
In this model, only a single ISP would be present on the network. This ISP can be the City or a private company owning and operating the network. The price and services provided by the ISP will be entirely dictated by key stakeholders. In the case of a privately owned and operated network, the key stakeholders will be investors, reducing subscriber agency and influence regarding the network and services provided. In the case of a municipally owned and operated network, the community will have greater influence on outcomes affecting the network as the City is accountable to them both residents and subscribers.
Open Access Network
An open-access network allows multiple ISPs to provide Internet services to subscribers that can choose their preferred provider. Open access networks provide greater choice for subscribers and encourage competition, but there are significant differences in subscriber experience depending on the open access model used.
In a dark fiber open access model, the City will own and operate the common segments of the network and ISPs will then connect to the home. The ISP will only operate, maintain, and pay for these segments, reducing the costs that they incur. However, the City must have enough fiber strands to meet the demand and require more infrastructure to connect to the home if the subscriber decides to switch ISPs. Manual and automated open access models provide subscribers the choice among different providers as well, but do not require additional connections to the home. In these models the network provider will provide the last mile connections to residences and facilitate provision selection and switching either manually or through a cloud-based marketplace.

9. Final Recommendations and Next Steps
9.1 Final Recommendations
Successful implementation of the Broadband Master Plan will require both time and collaboration between different City staff and departments. Understanding that broadband implementation is costly, the City should focus on finding the right partner to deploy broadband within the City limits. Additionally, aligning with the current push to deploy more quality broadband nationwide, the City should focus on applying for and being knowledgeable about the various funding sources that can be used to meet the goals of this Broadband Master Plan. Another important element to consider is the adoption of policies that can streamline the implementation of broadband in the City. These recommendations are expanded upon in the sections below.
Update Citywide Policies to Support Broadband
The City General Plan Update (Visión Salinas 2040) is expected to be considered for adoption in late 2024. Many elements outlined within it promote or will benefit from the implementation of broadband infrastructure. The City General Plan currently includes no explicit language that targets the development of broadband infrastructure. The City should consider including policies within the City General Plan to promote the addition of infrastructure to help more easily expand connections to unserved areas. Policies could include creating obligations for developers to use practices that could require the addition fiberready conduit to new developments. This is in line with the goals set in the Monterey County Broadband Strategic Plan, which encourages municipalities to build partnerships to deploy broadband infrastructure.
Identify a Champion for Broadband Deployment
In preparation for the implementation of the fiber network, the City must also determine which department or departments will be responsible for tracking City efforts being undertaken to realize the City-wide fiber network. This role will allow the City to aggregate materials and information crucial to the implementation of the fiber network and to coordinate on the City’s behalf with potential partners. The Community Development Department Economic Development Division has been offered as a potential “champion” for City broadband efforts.
Focus on Available Funding Opportunities
Due to the current national focus on expanding the broadband infrastructure with a focus on fiber connections across the country, there are several funding programs that present the City with opportunities to fund the implementation of the City-wide fiber network. Many cities in California are already preparing materials to apply for broadband infrastructure funding or have already applied to already existing programs, like the CASF accounts. Upcoming programs like the California Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment Program (BEAD) have not released their Notices of Funding Opportunity (NOFOs), however, they are large budget programs that can fund significant portions of the City-wide network.
9.2. Next Steps
The Broadband Master Plan provides a roadmap for the deployment of a City-wide fiber network. It allows the City to effectively engage with the opportunities provided by the renewed national focus on bridging the digital divide to benefit its citizens. The City of Salinas may use this document to engage and inform stakeholders, select future projects, and apply for funding sources.
May 2024 39
It should be recognized that the landscape of broadband infrastructure is rapidly evolving. In 2021, Senate Bill 156 was signed to create an open-access middle mile network to increase internet connectivity across California. A portion of the proposed statewide middle mile network will run through the City along US 101 and Route 183. This network could be leveraged in the future for access by the city depending on policies and pricing determined by the state. Additionally, the distribution of unserved and underserved populations as shown on the CASF and CPUC FFA maps may change in the coming years as these resources are updated. The City should consider updating the Broadband Master Plan every few years to ensure that the evolving needs of the City are reflected.

TITLE: ALISAL NEIGHBORHOOD BROADBAND FIBER NETWORK
DESIGN
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion to approve a resolution approving the Alisal Neighborhood Broadband Fiber Network Design.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Alisal Neighborhood Broadband Fiber Network Design (Network Design) was developed as part of the Salinas Broadband Master Plan (SBMP) and supports the development of universal broadband access within the Alisal neighborhood. The Alisal Neighborhood Broadband Fiber Network Design includes engineering drawings and standard specifications for the City's fiber optic network for a constructible network design that is shovel-ready.
BACKGROUND:
On February 21, 2023, the City, with assistance from Kimley Horn and Associates Inc. (Kimley Horn), was awarded the Local Agency Technical Assistance grant (LATA) to develop the Salinas Broadband Master Plan and Alisal Neighborhood Broadband Fiber Network Design. The LATA grant provided the City of Salinas a total of $470,304 in funding to assist in efforts to provide highspeed broadband to unserved and underserved residents. The grant covered pre-construction expenses to facilitate the development of a broadband network deployment project.
As part of this effort, City staff requested engineering drawings and standard specifications specifically for the Alisal area, known as the Alisal Neighborhood Fiber Network Design (Exhibit “A” to the Resolution). Network Design was reviewed by City staff, making it a project that is shovel-ready and can be utilized by any internet service provider. Additionally, this Network Design enhances the City’s ability to apply for grants to cover construction costs.
Development of the Alisal Neighborhood Fiber Network Design advances multiple goals identified in the Alisal Vibrancy Plan (AVP), including:
TI 3.1.c – Improve Internet Capabilities. Work with internet service and utility providers to improve broadband internet connectivity and speeds in the Alisal. Partner with nonprofits or similar groups to provide reduced cost or free access to low-income residents and businesses.
TI 3.1.d - Promote and expand free WIFI zones. Improve wireless internet speed and free accessibility at City facilities and schools.
TI 3.1.e – Install Dark Fiber. After completing the fiber network from Hartnell College to the new Public Safety Building along West Alisal Street, continue installing the network along East Alisal Street to the Hartnell College Alisal Campus.
The Salinas Broadband Master Plan developed conceptual cost estimates, including for the Alisal Neighborhood Broadband Fiber Network Design which is estimated to cost $11,420,838. Costs were estimated per mile of fiber, factoring in construction expenses like connections to city buildings, traffic signals, new pull boxes, conduit, and end equipment. Additional costs include a 30% construction contingency for price fluctuations due to unforeseen conditions, inflation, and unexpected costs.
Implementation of the Alisal Neighborhood Broadband Fiber Network Design The successful implementation of the Alisal Neighborhood Broadband Fiber Network Design, and the Salinas Broadband Master Plan more broadly, will require time and collaboration among various City staff and departments. Given the high costs associated with broadband deployment, the City is exploring potential partnerships for this endeavor. The Alisal Neighborhood Fiber Network Design can be utilized by any public or private entity to commence the installation of fiber. The design and permit framework provided aims to streamline the process and promote the rapid deployment of fiber infrastructure in the Alisal neighborhood, thereby enhancing connectivity and supporting our community's digital needs. Additionally, the City will actively seek and stay informed about funding opportunities to support implementation of the Network Design.
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 environment. 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 Alisal Neighborhood Broadband Fiber Network Design supports the City Council’s Goals of “Economic Development” and “Infrastructure and Environmental Sustainability” by implementing the Alisal Vibrancy Plan goals of improving internet capabilities and expanding free WiFi zones within the City of Salinas.
DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:
The CDD’s Economic Development Division is actively working with Public Works’ Engineering, and Transportation Divisions as well as the Finance Department and Information Technology Division to ensure a cohesive approach to this initiative.
FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with approving the Alisal Neighborhood Broadband Fiber Network Design.

CITY OF SALINAS
COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: OCTOBER 22, 2024
DEPARTMENT: LIBRARY & COMMUNITY SERVICES
FROM: KRISTAN LUNDQUIST, DIRECTOR
TITLE: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 28-14 OF THE SALINAS
MUNICIPAL CODE RELATED TO GENERAL REGULATIONS
GOVERNING THE USE OF PARKS, RECREATION AREAS AND
FACILITIES
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion recommending that the Salinas City Council adopt an Ordinance amending Section 28- 14 of the Salinas Municipal Code related to General Regulations Governing the Use of Parks, Recreation areas and Facilities.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In an effort to address concerns regarding the use of the parking lots at various Recreation-Park facilities and use of parks for campaign-related activities, staff recommends an update to Section 28-14 of the Salinas Municipal Code.
BACKGROUND:
Chapter 28 of the Salinas Municipal Code was established in 1956 to govern the use of Recreation and Parks Services in the City of Salinas. Since that time, the Ordinance has been updated as needed to address emerging issues relating to operations of the Recreation-Park Department. The last update was approved in 2009 and amended Sec. 28-14 (b) which prohibits the use of fireworks in parks, recreation areas or facilities. In effort to address concerns regarding the use of the parking lots at various Recreation-Park facilities and use of parks for campaign-related activities, staff recommend the following update to the Salinas Municipal Code.
Parking Lot Use
The City has eleven (11) Recreation-Park facilities that have parking lots including seven (7) adjacent to park facilities. Of the 7 parking lots located at park facilities, 4 have gates which provide the ability for the parking lot to be closed outside of regular park hours. These locations include: El Dorado Community Park, McKinnon Neighborhood Park, Monte Bella Community Park, and Sherwood Community Park. While these parks have gates, the use of the gates varies by neighborhood and a variety of factors. In some locations, safety and security necessitates the closure of the parking lots. This can be problematic when unattended vehicles are parked in the Page | 2
parking lots when staff or contractors attempt to close the lots. In an effort to address unattended vehicles left in a parking lot, staff is seeking to add language to the Ordinance regarding the use of parking lots. This will provide for the ability to tow unattended vehicles parking in the parking lots outside of the park hours (dawn to dusk).
Campaign-Related Activities and Signs
Another addition is guidance related to the placement of noncommercial signs and park use in conjunction with a primary or general election. Currently, Salinas Municipal Code and state law prohibits the placement of temporary noncommercial message sings including but not limited to campaign signs on any city property, buildings, right-of-way, utility poles, streetlights, street signs, trees, sidewalks or median islands, parks, or any other public area. However, the use of a City facility such as the open space between City Hall and the Rotunda or a city park that is an equally available to all candidates and in use for campaign-related activity as a public forum is allowed.
When a park or open space is available for campaign-related activity, all campaign signs and material must be removed following the completion of the campaign-related activity or event.
There are other minor non-substantive changes clarifying four other sections.
The Ordinance update was presented to the Library & Community Services Commission on September 11, 2024. The Commission had concerns regarding cost impacts to residents whose vehicles may be towed, creating a city-wide policy to address one neighborhood concern about parking lots, and felt the Ordinance should be looked at holistically and make necessary changes.
In addition, the Commission felt it was important that the community be educated about the changes. Ultimately, the Commission voted to table the item so that staff could do additional work. The Commission also committed to submitting their suggested changes by one week from the September 11, 2024, meeting.
Staff received suggested changes from the Commission. After review, staff has incorporated changes to the draft Ordinance to address these suggestions.
The Ordinance update was scheduled to go before the LCS Commission again on October 9, 2024, however, this meeting was cancelled due to lack of quorum. Nevertheless, in continuing effort to improve the access and management of our parks, staff felt it was important to bring this to your Council before the next LCS Commission meeting.
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).

City Attorney Impartial Analysis
This Ordinance amends section 28-14 of the Salinas Municipal Code related to the parking of vehicles in park facility parking lots. This Ordinance would allow for the removal of vehicles parked in such parking lots after the park’s operating hours.

This ordinance also includes non-substantive amendments to provide clarity on provisions of section 28-14.
WHEREAS, Chapter 28 of the Salinas Municipal Code was established in 1956 to govern the use of Recreation and Park Services in the City of Salinas (Ordinance No. 872 (N.C.S.); and WHEREAS, Chapter 28 of the Salinas Municipal Code has been amended 5 subsequent times; and WHEREAS, staff recommends amending Chapter 28 in order to address concerns relating to the use of parking lots at various Recreation-Park facilities, use of parks for campaign related activities and other minor changes.

(8) revise language on severance pay for Department Directors to be consistent with at-will employment.
BACKGROUND:
Extension of City Attorney’s Employment Agreement
City Attorney Christopher A. Callihan has worked for the City of Salinas in the Office of the City Attorney since September 2003 and as City Attorney since January 2014. The City Council has completed the annual public employee performance evaluation process for Mr. Callihan. As part of this process, the parties desire to amend Mr. Callihan’s employment agreement to reflect an extension of two years, to February 9, 2029.
Compensation Plans for Department Directors, Confidential Management, and Confidential NonManagement Groups The proposed changes to wages and benefits in the compensation plans maintain parity with similar employee groups and support recruitment and retention.
The change to deferred compensation for Department Directors reflects the Internal Revenue Service’s increase in the maximum benefit for 2024. The uniform allowance is updated due to the rising costs of uniform replacement and maintenance for public safety. The increase in annual leave cash out limits for Department Directors is a response to Directors’ concerns about inability to use accrued leave due to their departments being short-staffed. The language on severance pay for Department Directors is revised to be consistent with the at-will nature of their employment.
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).
CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:
No.
STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:
The proposed actions meet the Effective and Culturally Responsive Government Council goal within the 2022-2025 Strategic Plan and are expected to improve employee recruitment and retention.
DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:
Administration coordinated with the Human Resources Department, the Finance Department, and the Office of the City Attorney.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:
The projected cumulative total for the three Compensation Plan adjustments is approximately $414,605 for Department Directors, $460,141 for Confidential Management, and $233,462 for Confidential Non-Management over a two-year period. FY 24-25 costs for all three plans, equal to half of the year one total (January – June 2025), are $217,988.48 and shown by fund below.

CITY OF SALINAS
COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: OCTOBER 22, 2024
DEPARTMENT: ADMINISTRATION
FROM: RENE MENDEZ, CITY MANAGER
BY: SOPHIA ROME, COMMUNITY RELATIONS MANAGER
TITLE: CITY PROJECT DASHBOARDS AND MAP
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Receive a report on the City’s project dashboards and interactive project map; no action required.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City has been exploring opportunities to share information with the community more effectively through innovation and technology. As part of this effort, the City started building out a transparency webpage with access to project dashboards and the City’s Open Data Portal. In addition to building out new project dashboards, the City’s Geographic Information Systems (GIS) team developed an interactive project map that will be a tool for residents to visualize where projects are happening across Salinas and learn more about any specific projects that may be of interest.
BACKGROUND:
In May 2024, the City announced the creation of the Transparency page on the City website, which included two project dashboards, one for Alisal Vibrancy Plan implementation and the other for American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). The Community Relations team has been working with GIS on exploring new ways to display information for residents through an interactive map to continue expanding access to information. The City’s GIS team supports City projects through internal and public facing applications with the goal of fostering transparency, improving communication between the City and its residents, and encouraging active public participation in shaping the future of our community. GIS has created the first iteration of the project map which includes a sampling of different project types to demonstrate how the mapping tool will be used.
The next steps are to:
Continue to update the project map to include all major City projects and other work with high impact to residents;
Page | 2
Add the project map to the Transparency page;
Continue to identify and build out project dashboards for long-term City projects and initiatives; and
Create guidelines to keep the information on the Transparency page current.
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 environment. 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.
CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:
No.
STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:
Economic Development
Can help promote Salinas as a desired destination for business by sharing the City’s growth and investment in infrastructure improvements
Effective and Culturally Responsive Government
Improves communication related to programs and services in a professional, customeroriented manner DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:
The development of the project dashboards, project map and Open Data Portal have been a collaborative effort between City Administration, Community Development, and the GIS team.
However, updating the data and content has been coordinated between City departments.

CITY OF SALINAS
COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: OCTOBER 22, 2024
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
FROM: DAVID JACOBS, P.E., L.S., PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
BY: PHAVANA ARAMKUL, JUNIOR ENGINEER
ADRIANA ROBLES, P.E., C.F.M., CITY ENGINEER
TITLE: REJECTION OF BIDS FOR THE 2024 PAVEMENT CRACK
TREATMENT ON VARIOUS STREETS PROJECT NO. 9981
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
It is recommended that City Council approve a resolution rejecting all bids received on August 13, 2024 for the 2024 Pavement Crack Treatment on Various Streets Project No. 9981.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On August 13, 2024, the city received 3 bids for the 2024 Pavement Crack Treatment on Various Streets Project No. 9981. The three bidders are Talley Oil Inc., Onyx Paving Company, Inc., and Global Road Sealing Inc., with a total Bid of $517,650, $589,860, and an invalid bid of $629,650, respectively. The engineer’s estimate is $800,250, putting the proposals received lower than the anticipated bid. Following bid opening, staff became aware of a calculation oversight which significantly modified the bid quantities from 81 linear lane miles (LLM) to 57 LLM. Because the difference exceeds 25% of the bid quantity, this would allow the lowest bidder to negotiate the cost of the different quantities. Since the project had not been awarded, staff recommends rejecting all bids and rebidding the project to allow a competitive bid on the corrected project scope.
BACKGROUND:
The City maintains approximately 291 centerline miles of roadway pavement. On May 7, 2024, the City Council established the Pavement Management and Street Selection Policy (Resolution No. 22953) to strategically distributes funding to address pavement deterioration. The policy identified crack treatment as a Stop Gap/Maintenance strategy to prevent water migration into existing pavements.
On June 25, 2024, the City Council approved the 5-Year Pavement Preservation Street List (Resolution No. 23031). This list identified the streets that were to receive pavement treatment (maintenance or rehabilitation) in the coming years. In an effort to prevent the selected streets from deteriorating more rapidly, crack treatment was identified as a lower cost effort to provide a short term protection from water intrusion into the pavement subsurface.
Page | 2
On July 22, 2024, the City Engineer approved the project specifications and authorized the call for bids for this project. The project, in general, calls for crack treatment of existing pavements from ¼ inch to 1 inch wide to deter additional pavement deterioration from the upcoming winterseason, and in preparation for additional surface treatment in future projects.
On August 13, 2024, three bids were electronically received and publicly opened and examined via a Zoom meeting with the following results (see Exhibit A – Bid Tabulation sheet for details).
Table 1. BID RESULTS
Contractor Total Base Bid 1 and
Bid Alternates 1-4
Talley Oil Inc. $517,650
Onyx Paving Company, Inc. $589,860
Global Road Sealing Inc (Invalid Bid) Invalid Bid
Engineer’s Estimate $800,250
Based on provisions of the Project Specifications, “The basis of award shall be the lowest total bid, as noted in the Proposal. The City further reserves the right to award or reject the Base Bid or any item(s) within, depending on available funding.” The lowest bidder is Talley Oil Inc. with a total Base Bid of $517,650. The engineer’s estimate is $800,250, putting the proposals received below the engineer’s estimate.
Due to a clerical error, Global Road Sealing Inc. did not submit Addendum No. 1. As stated in the bid requirements, Global Road Sealing Inc Bid was disqualified for having an incomplete bid.
Due to a calculation oversight, the total calculated unit of measure used, linear lane miles, was misrepresented to be ~81 linear lane miles (LLM), instead of ~57 LLM. The difference is approximately 30% lower. Based on Section 9-1.06 of the state standard specifications, cost adjustments may be made for bid quantity increases or decreases more than 25%. This would mean that pricing may be negotiated by the apparent low bidder outside of the competitive bidding process for the difference in quantities.
Staff recommends rejecting all bids for the 2024 Pavement Crack Treatment on Various Streets Project No. 9981, due to the oversight to the estimated project bid quantities. Staff is requesting to rebid the project following a review of the project quantities and bidding methodology.
CEQA CONSIDERATION:
Not a Project. Categorically exempt: The City of Salinas has determined that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines (Section 1530l(c), Class 1), because the project proposes to maintain existing roadways.
Page | 3
Furthermore, the project does not qualify for any of the exemptions to the categorical exemptions found at CEQA Guidelines Sections 15300.2, because section does not apply, and we are not reconstructing or replacing any structures or facilities.
CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE §84308:
No, this project was advertised and competitively bid and is therefore exempt from California Government Code §84308.
STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:
This project, when awarded, will addresses the current City Council’s Goals of Infrastructure and Environmental Sustainability and Public Safety by maintaining the City’s existing roadways and installing new striping and signage to enhance vehicular and pedestrian safety.
DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:
The Public Works Department is collaborating with Legal, Administration and Finance Departments for the 2024 Crack Treatment on Various Streets Project No. 9981.
FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:
Rejecting the bids has no direct fiscal impact.
