TITLE: APPROPRIATION OF $1,190,337 OF HOME-AMERICAN RESCUE
PLAN FUNDS TO THE HOUSING AUTHORITY OF MONTEREY
COUNTY
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion to approve a Resolution authorizing
1. The appropriation of $1,190,337 of HOME -American Rescue Plan (HOME -ARP) Funds to the Housing Authority of Monterey County to provide supportive services through rental assistance for qualifying HOME -ARP populations at the Fairview Homekey permanent supportive housing site located at 1030 Fairview Avenue,
2. The transfer of existing appropriation from 2931.30.3240 -69.1240 to 2931.30.3240 -
69.1680 in the amount of $1,190,337, and
3. The increase of estimated revenue for Fund 2931 to $2,485,337.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Approval of the appropriation of $1,190,337 of HOME-American Rescue Plan (HOME -ARP) Funds will enable the City to advance housing stability outcomes, comply with HUD expenditure and performance requirements, and ensure long -term service delivery. This appropriation is required to finalize and execute a Subrecipient Funding Agreement with the Housing Authority of the County of Monterey (HACM) for the administration and delivery of rental assistance as part of supportive service activity designated to st abilize housing for qualifying individuals experiencing homelessness at the Fairview Homekey site (Fairview Homekey Project) for the term of February 24, 2026, through February 24, 2027.
BACKGROUND:
On March 21, 2023, the City Council approved Resolution No. 22620, approving the City of Salinas HOME -ARP Allocation Plan, which prioritizes permanent supportive housing and the 589
Page | 2
provision of supportive services to people experiencing homelessness. Subsequently, on August 6, 2024, the City Council approved Resolution No. 23054, allocating HOME-ARP and Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds to provide supportive services at the Fairview Homekey Project. Resolution No. 23054 also authorized City Manager and City Attorney to take action to make those funds available, authorizes City staff to take whatever additional action may be necessary to update the City’s HOME ARP Allocation Plan and PLHA program, and authorizes the Mayor and the City Clerk to execute additional resolutions as may be required by the State of California or HUD.
Project History and Change of Ownership
The Fairview Homekey property previously was owned under agreements with Shangri -La, Inc.
Following the foreclosure proceedings resulting from Shangri -La’s defaults, ownership of the property transitioned, and the Housing Authority of the County of Monterey (HACM) has since acquired the site and now serves as the sole property owner and operator. The City’s prior partnership with Shangri-La has been fully resolved.
As of January 23, 2026, the Housing Authority of the County of Monterey (HACM), is the sole property owner and operator for Fairview Homekey property and program operations. Acquisition and preservation of the Fairview Homekey site as permanent supportive housing, was supported by the Monterey County Board of Supervisors authoriz ing a one-time contribution of up to $2.5 million from the County Health Department Behavioral Health Bureau to HACM. This investment was matched by the Salinas City Council’s appropriation of Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) and Prohousing Incentive Program (PIP) funds. This coordinated investment by the City, County, and HACM ensured the preservation of the Fairview Homekey site and avoided the loss of much-needed housing for highly vulnerable residents. The requested appropriation of HOME- ARP funds builds upon the City and County’s prior financial commitments toward the acquisition and preservation of the Fairview Homekey Project and represents the next phase of operation.
Fairview Homekey Project
The Fairview Homekey Project is a permanent supportive housing site developed through the State of California’s Homekey Program. The property consists of 4 5 studio units and one manager’s unit, all of which have been fully renovated and are move-in ready. The project serves individuals experiencing homelessness, including persons with mental illness and other complex health conditions, and is intended to prov ide long -term housing stability coupled with intensive supportive services.
Support services include case management and individualized service planning, housing stabilization and retention services, housing navigation and counseling, and referrals to behavioral health care, substance use treatment, healthcare, employment, and transportation services. All services will be delivered using a Housing First and low -barrier approach, ensuring that 590
Page | 3
participants are not screened out based on income, employment st atus, sobriety, or treatment history.
Community Engagement
In response to inquiries from nearby residents and businesses, the Housing Authority of the County of Monterey, in coordination with the City of Salinas, convened a community engagement meeting on February 19, 2026, at 6pm, at the Los Padres Elementary School. The purpose of the meeting was to provide information regarding the Fairview Homekey Project, clarify site operations and security protocols, and establish clear and appropriate points of con tact for community members to report concerns related to the property or its operations. The meeting will also provide an opportunity to explain the permanent supportive housing model, resident eligibility, and management structure for the site.
Housing Authority of the County of Monterey (HACM)
The Housing Authority of the County of Monterey (HACM) serves as the City’s primary housing partner for the Fairview Homekey Project. HACM as the property owner will be responsible for securing and administering operating subsidies (such as Housing Choice Vouchers when available), overseeing compliance with state and federal regulatory agreements tied to Homekey, HOME-ARP, and other funding sources. HACM is also responsible for coordina ting with the California State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) on project approvals, operational feasibility, and long -term sustainability, as well as addressing any transactional or ownership issues that may arise. While the City provides policy direction, funding allocations, and regulatory oversight as a Participating Jurisdiction, HACM is responsible for the day-to-day operational viability of the Fairview Homekey Project and for resolving property-level or financing matters in coordination with HCD.
Service Provider Selection Process
Supportive services for the Fairview Homekey Project were procured by HACM through a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) process issued on December 10, 2025. On January 26, 2026, the HACM Board of Commissioners approved the award of the supportive services contract to Step Up for the Fairview Homekey Project. The selected provider will deliver onsite supportive services in coordination with HACM and the City of Salinas, consistent w ith HOME -ARP requirements and the project’s Housing First model.
Grand Opening and Project Launch
The grand opening of the Fairview Homekey Project is anticipated to occur on March 4, 2026, concurrent with the ongoing lease-up of the site. The grand opening will mark the commencement of onsite supportive services and full program operations by HACM. Additional details regarding 591
Page | 4
the timing and format of the grand opening will be shared as project readiness milestones are finalized.
Performance, Reporting and Monitoring
The Housing Authority of the County of Monterey (HACM) is required to meet the performance outcomes identified in the approved Scope of Work . As part of the Scope of Work, HACM must enter client-level data into the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) and comply with all applicable federal , state and local requirements. The City will conduct ongoing monitoring, including desk reviews and on -site reviews, to ensure program compliance and the timely expenditure of funds.
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).
Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability.
CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:
No.
STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:
Funding for the first year of supportive services through rental assistance of the Fairview Homekey Project furthers the 2025-2028 City Council Strategic Plan Housing strategy of promoting the health and safety of unsheltered residents through housing and supportive services. Approval of this item will enable the City to advance housing stability outcomes, comp ly with HUD expenditure and performance requirements, and ensure long-term service delivery.
DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:
This agenda item was prepared by the Community Development Department in Coordination with the City Attorney and Finance Department.
FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: FEBRUARY 24, 2026
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS, TRAFFIC & TRANSPORTATION DIVISION FROM: DAVID JACOBS, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
BY: GERARDO RODRIGUEZ, ASSISTANT ENGINEER
ADRIANA ROBLES, CITY ENGINEER
TITLE: ESTABLISH ALL-WAY STOP AT CALIFORNIA STREET AND
EAST SAN LUIS STREET
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion to approve a Resolution establishing an All-Way STOP at California Street and East San Luis Street.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Staff received a request to install All-Way STOP signs at the intersection of California Street and East San Luis Street. The request was received following several collisions which occurred within a span of three to four months as well as a concern of students walking at this intersection to schools. All-Way STOPs are considered using a combination of quantitative and qualitativ e criteria. This intersection satisfies the qualitative criteria for an All-Way STOP and has a history of broadside collisions; therefore, staff is recommending approval of establishment of an All-Way STOP at California Street and East San Luis Street . The Traffic and Transportation Commission approved an alternate recommendation which includes striping on California Street. Staff do not support this alternate recommendation.
BACKGROUND:
In late 2023, staff received a request from a resident with neighborhood support to install All-Way STOP signs at the intersection of California Street and East San Luis Street. Staff performed a traffic analysis that utilizes a combination of quantitative and qualitative establishment criteria recommended by the California – Manual on Traffic Control Devices (CA-MUTCD).
The CA-MUTCD states that in order for an all way stop condition to be warranted, the intersection should either have five or more reported correctable collisions in a 12 -month period or have an average of at least 300 vehicles per hour from t he major approach and 200 vehicles, pedestrians and bicyclists per hour from the minor street approaches for an 8 -hour period of the day. The manual allows for reductions to these thresholds if the approach speed on the major street exceeds 40 mph. While this intersection does not satisfy the volume nor the specific crash history criteria 597
Page | 2
per Section 2B.07 04 of the CA -MUTCD, this intersection has a history of broadside collisions which are correctable by installation of an All-Way STOP.
The qualitative establishment criteria consider other contributing factors that may satisfy establishment criteria using engineering judgement. Factors analyzed in the qualitative analysis include elements such as land use generators (schools, business districts, etc.), g eometric conditions (blind curves, unimproved shoulders, etc.), and corridor planning measures (interim solution while large improvements are built). When considering the qualitative establishment criteria, this intersection satisfies this criterion given the proximity to a school bus pickup/drop off for Roosevelt Elementary School, the Salinas Child Development Center and pedestrian crossings for middle and high schools.
The Traffic and Transportation Commission
The recommendation to establish an All-Way STOP at the intersection of California Street and East San Luis Street was presented to the Traffic and Transportation Commission at its January 8, 2026 meeting. The Commission voted on an amended motion which added striping California Street. The Commission voted (4-1) recommending City Council approve a Resolution to establish All-Way STOP at the intersection of California Street and E ast San Luis Street with the consideration of restriping California Street, as amended by Commission Dailey.
On October 14, 2025, the City Council approved the 2025 -2026 Prioritization of Restriping Projects. This staff report did not include California Street because this segment of California Street is considered a local street by both the City of Salinas and the California Department of Transportation. Consistent with CA -MUTCD recommendations, local streets are not required to provide centerline striping. Staff recommends the City Council approve a Resolution establishing an All-Way STOP at the intersection of California Street and East San Luis Street but do not support striping of California Street as recommended by the Traffic and Transportation Commission.
CEQA CONSIDERATION:
Categorical Exemption. The City of Salinas has determined that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines (Section 15301, Class 1) because the project proposes minor alteration of an existing public facilities.

ADRIANA ROBLES, CITY ENGINEER
TITLE: ALL-WAY STOP REQUEST FOR NORTH MADEIRA AVENUE
AND ROOSEVELT STREET
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion to approve a Resolution establishing an All-Way STOP at North Madeira Avenue and Roosevelt Street.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In 2023, staff received a request to install an All-Way STOP at the intersection of North Madeira Avenue and Roosevelt Street. The request was received from concerns regarding collisions, senior centers adjacent to the intersection, and students walking at this intersection to school. All-Way STOPs are considered using a combination of quantitative and qualitative measures. This intersection satisfied the qualitative criterion due to its proximity to sensitive land use generators.
Staff concurs with the Traffic and Transportation Commission ’s recommendation to approve a Resolution establishing an All-Way Stop at North Maderia Avenue and Roosevelt Street.
BACKGROUND:
In mid-2023, staff received a request from a resident with neighborhood support to install All-Way STOP signs at the intersection of North Madeira Avenue and Roosevelt Street. Staff performed a traffic analysis that utilizes a combination of quantitative and qualitati ve establishment criteria measures recommended by the California – Manual on Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).
The CA-MUTCD states that in order for an all way stop condition to be warranted, the intersection should either have five or more reported correc table collisions in a 12 -month period or have an average of at least 300 vehicles per hour from the major approach and 200 vehicles, pedestrians and bicyclists per hour from the minor street approaches for an 8 -hour period of the day. The manual also allow s for reductions to these thresholds if the approach speed on the major street exceeds 40mph. Staff conducted a stop warrant analysis and concluded that while this intersection did not satisfy the 8-hour volume criterion (the criterion was satisfied for only 3 hours), the traffic 606
Page | 2
volume on both the major and minor street are approximately equal and the intersection would improve traffic operations with the installation of an All-Way STOP.
The qualitative establishment criteria consider other contributing factors that may satisfy establishment criteria using engineering judgement. Factors analyzed i n the qualitative analysis include elements such as land use generators (schools, business districts, etc.), geometric conditions (blind curves, unimproved shoulders, etc.), and corridor planning measures (interim solution while large improvements are buil t). When considering the qualitative establishment criteria, this intersection satisfies this criterion given the intersection’s proximity to a school bus pickup/drop off, La Paz Park, senior center and pedestrian crossings for middle and high schools.
Traffic and Transportation Commission
The recommendation to establish an All-Way STOP at the intersection of North Madeira Avenue and Roosevelt Street was presented to the Traffic and Transportation Commission at its January 8, 2026 meeting. The Commission voted (5-0) recommending City Council approve a Resolution establishing an All-Way STOP at the intersection of North Madeira Avenue and Roosevelt Street.
CEQA CONSIDERATION:

DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS

BY: JENNY DAVILA, PUBLIC WORKS ADMIN. SUPERVISOR
TITLE: CITY-WIDE PARKING ENFORCEMENT AGREEMENT
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion to approve a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a services agreement with LAZ Parking California, LLC for City-Wide Parking Enforcement Services in an amount not to exceed $1,949,175 through January 1, 2029 with and an option to extend the term for two (2) additional one-year periods.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Following a competitive procurement process, two proposals were received. LAZ Parking California, LLC (“LAZ”) submitted the most cost-efficient proposal to meet the needs of the City.
LAZ has partnered with the City for more than five years providing parking enforcement services and operational stability. LAZ has proposed the use of ALPR cameras that will improve current enforcement activities.
With the current process in place and the new proposed measures will enhance enforcement responsiveness allowing for more timely and accurate enforcement, expanded coverage in high - impact areas, and improve compliance, thus contributing to safer streets and improved access for residents, businesses, and visitors to the City of Salinas.
BACKGROUND:
The City has pro gressively modernized its parking enforcement approach since 2016, when it contracted with Serco, Inc. to supplement Police Department activities. In 2018, the service model was expanded to include evening and weekend coverage, addressing community needs a nd incorporating more flexible scheduling to reflect real use patterns.
In 2020, Serco, Inc. was acquired by LAZ KARP Associates, LLC and the City transitioned to a new agreement under the updated provider. Throughout this period, the program has offered responsive, demand-driven enforcement that relieves the Police Department of routine duties – allowing sworn staff to focus on higher-priority safety issues. 615
Page | 2
Parking Enforcement remains one of the City’s most frequently requested services, particularly in areas experiencing significant residential and commercial activity. The previous contract with LAZ expired in December 2025, prompting the release of a Request for Proposals (RFP) on October 13, 2025, for continued City-Wide Parking Enforcement Services.
Two proposals were submitted: one from 4-Leaf, Inc and one from LAZ Parking California, LLC.
After review of both proposals, City staff determined that LAZ submitted the most cost -efficient proposal while including new innovative approaches to the current parking enforcement structure offering strong value while maintaining established quality standards.
Currently under manual enforcement, officers generally review 30 -50 license plates per hour, depending on zone layout and walking conditions. Vehicle-mounted ALPR systems typically scan 600-1,200 plates per hour, allowing for broader and more consistent coverage without increasing staffing levels. LAZ states that there may be an initial increase in citations per hour during first deployment of the new syst em due to the identification of existing non -compliance rather than a change in the enforcement policy. Overtime citation volume stabilizes as compliance improves.
ALPR also improves accuracy and consistency. Automated plate capture reduces manual entry errors, which can lower citation void rates by 20-40%, and ensures every vehicle is reviewed using the same criteria. This supports a fair, uniform, and defensible e nforcement approach across all zones. The primary goal of the added ALPR is to improve efficiency, accuracy, and consistency, allowing LAZ to spend more time on confirmed violations and not plate verification.
To maintain uninterrupted enforcement, preserve institutional knowledge, and continue integrating technology and data into operations, City staff recommend approval of the new agreement for City-Wide parking Enforcement Services with LAZ Parking California, LLC with an annual not- to-exceed amount of $649,725.00.
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.
CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:
“Yes”

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:
The Agreement for City-Wide Parking Enforcement Services relates to the strategic goal of Public Safety.
DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:
The Public Works Department coordinates with Police parking enforcement staff. Parking Enforcement services include coordination with Code Enforcement activities as well as with Street Maintenance services in regard to curb markings and signs.
FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:
There is no impact to the General Fund. The Parking Enforcement Program is an enterprise account where the revenues offset the operating cost. Funding is appropriated and available for the remainder of the fiscal year. Future contract costs will be included in the upcoming bud get development process.

Project Background:
The City of Salinas desires efficient and professional parking enforcement operations citywide which includes the city’s commercial districts, residential permit parking program, schools, street sweeping restrictions, and parking restrictions and wishes to engage these services without incurring capital outlay or adding City employees.
Therefore, the city is seeking proposals from organizations that can provide Parking Enforcement Services with the goal to increase parking citation issuance. The City is seeking a multi-year contract with a qualified, professional and highly motivated firm or consortium to perform daily permit parking enforcement services. The selected provider shall work with the City’s Citation Processing and Administrative Review contractor, including provision of compatible equipment with their systems.
Description of Project:
The City of Salinas seeks to further enhance the effectiveness of its downtown parking management program, which encompasses several city-operated parking lots and two parking garages. The City is pleased with the progress achieved under its current parking management provider and is now inviting proposals that will build upon this success to deliver innovative, efficient, and cost -effective parking management solutions. The City aims to improve revenue collection through effective citation issuance and enforcement practices, while continuing to strengthen on -street parking management in its commercial areas and within the existing residential permit parking district near one of its major hospitals. In addition, the City anticipates expanding enforcement efforts in school zones during pick -up and drop -off times and implementing new parking restrictions to support street sweeping operations.
The attached maps show commercial areas throughout the City and the location of the residential permit parking program.

LAZ Parking is honored to submit this proposal to continue our valued partnership with the City of Salinas (“City”) for the provision of citywide parking enforcement services. Since 2016, LAZ has proudly served as the City’s parking enforcement provider, delivering reliable, customer- focused, and efficient operations that have enhanced parking compliance, supported public works programs, and contributed to a cleaner, safer, and more accessible Salinas. Over nearly a decade, LAZ has worked hand -in-hand with City management to continuously refine routes, improve efficiency, and strengthen enforcement consistency. This successful collaboration is a testament to our shared commitment to operational excellence, transparency, and community service.
A continued partnership with LAZ ensures no transition risk , seamless continuity of service , and preservation of the City’s operational momentum . Our dedicated on -site team is already fully trained, vetted, and familiar with Salinas’s neighborhoods, business districts, and parking regulations.

Understanding the City’s Objectives and Scope
LAZ understands that the City seeks a professional and highly motivated partner to deliver consistent, citywide parking enforcement services covering commercial districts, residential permit areas, school zones, and street sweeping routes.

• Professionalism and accountability in every interaction. • Accurate, consistent, and timely enforcement aligned with Public Works and community needs. • Comprehensive training and supervision to ensure compliance with City standards. • Data-driven reporting and performance tracking; and

LAZ’s program will continue to meet and exceed these expectations through well -trained personnel, rigorous supervision, real -time reporting tools, and constant coordination with City departments and PMB, the City’s citation processing vendor.
Why LAZ is the Best Qualified Firm
With over 40 years of municipal enforcement experience , LAZ Parking is the largest and most experienced private parking operator in the United States, managing over 1.5 million on- street citations annually for cities and public agencies nationwide.

Proposed Innovations | City of Salinas
18 5. PROPOSED INNOVATIONS
Technical & Procedural Innovations
Introducing Mobile License Plate Recognition (LPR) Technology for Enhanced Enforcement and Data-Driven Management
As the City of Salinas’s parking enforcement partner since 2016, LAZ Parking continually seeks opportunities to leverage proven technology to improve operational efficiency, compliance accuracy, and customer experience. One such innovation we propose for future integration into the City’s enforcement operations is mobile License Plate Recognition (LPR) technology —mounted on enforcement vehicles to automate enforcement of time-limited zones, residential parking districts, and other regulated areas.
Proven Technology – Trusted by Municipal Clients Nationwide LAZ has successfully deployed mobile and fixed LPR systems across multiple municipal programs nationwide, including San Mateo, Inglewood and West Hollywood , where these systems have dramatically improved efficiency, coverage, and enforcement accuracy. By scanning and matching license plates in real time, LPR technology allows enforcement officers to quickly identify vehicles in violation, confirm parking compliance, and collect valuable data to support broader parking management objectives.
Benefits of Mobile LPR for the City of Salinas
The integration of LPR into Salinas’s parking program would immediately enhance service delivery and long-term planning capabilities in several key areas:
1. Increased Efficiency and Coverage
• LPR-equipped vehicles can capture thousands of license plates per shift, covering significantly more area than manual patrols.
• Officers can focus on confirming and issuing citations, while the system automatically records time-stamped photographic evidence for accuracy and transparency. • Routes can be optimized using real-time data to ensure balanced enforcement coverage throughout all City zones.
2. Enhanced Timed Zone Enforcement
• LPR technology automatically records the location and time a vehicle was first observed, enabling precise monitoring of time-limited parking zones.
• This eliminates the need for manual chalking or digital marking, ensuring greater consistency, fairness, and productivity.
• The system’s accuracy minimizes human error, providing an objective and auditable record that strengthens citation integrity.
3. Support for Occupancy and Utilization Studies
• In addition to enforcement, mobile LPR provides the City with valuable analytical data on parking patterns, turnover, and utilization across different districts and times of day. 724
City-Wide Parking Enforcement
Proposed Innovations | City of Salinas
19 • This data can be easily visualized through LAZ’s Business Intelligence (BI) platform, empowering the City to make data-driven decisions on policy, pricing, and infrastructure investments. • Over time, these insights help identify high-demand areas, optimize enforcement schedules, and guide parking resource allocation.
4. Foundation for Residential Permit District Expansion • As the City considers expanding its Residential Parking Permit Districts, LPR offers a scalable solution for efficient permit validation.
• Vehicles registered to permitted residents are automatically recognized and verified, streamlining enforcement and reducing administrative burden.
• LPR minimizes manual permit checks and improves compliance rates while maintaining a positive resident experience.
• The system can easily integrate with existing permit management platforms (such as Passport or PMB), ensuring seamless data flow between enforcement and permit administration.
5. Transparency, Accountability, and Public Confidence
• Each scan includes a GPS location, time stamp, and image, creating an indisputable record that supports fairness and transparency in enforcement.
• The City gains access to accurate performance reports, complaint validation tools, and operational insights, enhancing public confidence in enforcement practices. • LPR also improves officer safety by reducing the need for manual documentation in high-traffic or constrained environments.
Integration and Implementation Approach
Should the City wish to pursue this innovation, LAZ can implement mobile LPR technology without disruption to current enforcement operations. Our approach includes:
• Program Implementation: Launching an initial LPR vehicle within 60 days of approval to demonstrate performance and refine operational settings. • Integration with PMB: Configuring LPR data feeds to integrate with the City’s existing citation and permit management system.
• Officer Training: Providing comprehensive training to enforcement personnel on LPR operations, data accuracy, and field validation.
• Data Security and Privacy: Ensuring all captured data complies with State and City privacy requirements and is retained in accordance with local regulations.
A Future-Ready Parking Program for Salinas
By integrating LPR technology, the City of Salinas would take a proactive step toward a modern, efficient, and data-informed parking management system. This innovation not only enhances current enforcement effectiveness but also builds the technological fo undation for future initiatives such as dynamic curb management, residential permitting expansion, and real-time occupancy tracking.
LAZ Parking’s experience deploying and managing LPR technology across California ensures the City will benefit from a proven, reliable, and scalable system tailored to Salinas’s specific needs. Our commitment to partnership and innovation positions LAZ to help the City advance its mobility goals while maintaining the fairness, integrity, and community -centered approach that have defined our successful collaboration since 2016.

RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion that the City Council 1) find Zoning Code Amendment 2025 -001 categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15305 and 2) adopt an Ordinance to amend Chapter 37 of the Salinas Municipal Code (Zoning Code) to rescind Section 37 -50.250 (Accessory Dwelling Units), remove and modify Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) definitions of Section 37 -10.250 (“A” definitions), modify the ADU development regulations of Sections 37-30.020, 37-30-060, 37-30-110, 37-30.160, 37-30.390, and 37-30.430, and apply applicable State ADU Law to process ADU applications.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City’s ADU Ordinance is out of compliance with State ADU Law. Chapter 37, Article VI, Division 14 provides for a process whereby all Zoning Code Amendments are brought before the City Council for a final decision. The proposed Zoning Code Amendment amends Chapter 37 of the Salinas Municipal Code (Zoning Code) to rescind Section 37 -50.250 (Accessory Dwelling Units), remove and modify Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) definitions of Section 37-10.250 (“A” definitions), modify the ADU development regulations of Sections 37-30.020, 37-30-060, 37-30- 110, 37-30.160, 37-30.390, and 37-30.430, and apply applicable State standards for the processing of ADU applications. An updated ADU ordinance is being prepared as part of Phase One of the Zoning Code Update currently underway and scheduled for completion in spring 2026.
As the proposed action involves the adoption of an ordinance, should the City Council unanimously vote in favor of adoption the ordinance would be adopted on the same night as its introduction. (Salinas Charter section 11.3) If the City Council does not vote unanimously in favor 757
Page | 2
of adoption, the ordinance would come back at the City Council’s next meeting for adoption.
BACKGROUND:
Zoning Code Amendment 2025 -001 (ZCA 2025 -001) rescinds Section 37 -50.250 [(Accessory Dwelling Units) (ADU)] of Chapter 37 of the Salinas Municipal Code (Zoning Code). Both Zoning Code Sections 37-10.250 and 37-50.250 were originally established pursuant to Ordinance No. 2463 (Zoning Code), which was adopted by the City Council on November 7, 2006. Zoning Code Section 37-10.250 was subsequently amended by the City Council pursuant to Ordinance s 2507 which was adopted on May 18, 2010, No. 2581 which was adopted on December 6, 2016, and No. 2605 on July 3, 2018. Zoning C ode Section 37 -50.250 was also amended by above referenced Ordinance No. 2581 and No. 2626 which was adopted by the Council on November 5, 2019.
State ADU Law:
On January 1, 2020, after the latest City revision to Zoning Code Section 37 -50.250, California Government Code Sections 65852.2 and 65852.22 became effective. Section 65852.2 allowed for the development of ADUs and Section 65852.22 allowed for the development of Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs). On March 25, 2024, these Government Code Sections were renamed to the following:
Government Code Sections 66314 – 66332 (ADUs)
Government Code Sections 66333 – 66339 (JADUs)
Government Code Sections 66340 – 66342 (ADU Home Sales)
Per State law, Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs) are allowed to be created within the walls of a proposed or existing single-family residence and shall contain no more than 500 square feet.
JADUs offer additional housing options. They may share central systems, contain a basic kitchen utilizing small plug-in appliances, may share a bathroom with the primary dwelling, all to reduce development costs. JADUs present no additional stress on utility services or infrastructure because they simply repurpose existing space within the residence and do not expand the dwellings planned occupancy. JADUs are only allowed for owner -occupied properties unless the owner is another governmental agency, land trust, or housing organization. ADUs have no owner -occupied requirements. Development of JADUs are governed by Government Code Section 66333 through 66339.
The above referenced California Government Code Sections are not consistent with the City’s current ADU Ordinance (Zoning Code Sections 37-50.250). Because of this inconsistency, since 2020, staff has processed both ADUs and JADUs pursuant to State ADU Law and the administrative building permit process. To avoid confusion, the State Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) recommends that the City rescind the current ADU Ordinance and follow the State ADU Law and guidelines until a compliant ADU ordinance is adopted.
Analysis:
The rescinding of the ADU Ordinance requires that the existing ADU definitions and development 758
Page | 3
regulations be modified to comply with State ADU Law. Currently, ADUs are defined in Zoning Code Section 37-10.250 as either “Interior” or “Other” as stated below. The revisions in the ADU definitions would remove the “Interior” and “Other” definitions and modify the ADU definitio n so that it is consistent with State ADU Law. In addition, the use classifications of Agricultural, Residential, Public/Semipublic, and New Urbanism Zoning District would be modified to be consistent with the new ADU definitions and State ADU Law.
The Amendment would modify and remove the following “Accessory Dwelling Unit” definitions from Section 37-10.250 (“A” definitions) as follows (changes in strikethrough/underline format):
“Sec. 37-10.250. – “A” definitions.

The proposed Zoning Code Amendment would remove the existing Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Ordinance along with removal and modification of ADU definitions and the modification of Zoning Code development regulations for ADU so that the Zoning Code is in consistent with applicable State ADU law . As a result, ZCA 2025-001 would be consistent with the General Plan and Zoning Code.
768
2. The Amendment will not have the effect of reversing the policies of the Salinas General Plan, any applicable Specific Plan, and other plans and policies adopted by the Salinas City Council.
The proposed Zoning Code Amendment amends Chapter 37 of the Salinas Municipal Code (Zoning Code) to rescind Section 37 -50.250 ( Accessory Dwelling Units), remove and modify Accessor y Dwelling Unit (ADU) definitions of Section 37 -10.250 (“ A” definitions), modify development regulations of S ections 37 -30.020, 37 -30-060, 37 -30- 110, 37 -30.160, 37 -30.390, and 37 -30.430, and apply applicable State ADU Law and guidelines for the processing of Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) applications.
The Zoning Code Amendment would be consistent with Goal H -1 of the General Plan Housing Element by providing a range of housing types and a variety of affordability levels to address existing and projected housing construction needs in Salinas. It would also be consistent with Goal H -3 of the General Plan Housing Element by assisting in ensuring that all segments of the community have access to safe and decent housing that meets their diverse needs.

In addition, the City is currently drafting a new ADU Ordinance which would be consistent with State ADU Law.
3. The Amendment would not create an isolated district unrelated to adjacent zoning districts.
The Zoning Code Amendment is an amendment to the text of the Zoning Code and would not rezone or create new zoning districts. Therefore, the Zoning Code Amendment would not create any isolated districts unrelated to adjacent zoning districts.
4. The City has the capability to provide public utilities, roads, and services to serve the uses allowed by the proposed amendment.
Salinas is an urbanized area and public infrastru cture is presently in place to serve most uses. The proposed Amendment would not create the need for additional infrastructure.

A motion to recommend that the City Council 1) find Zoning Code Amendment 2025 -001 categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15305 and 2) adopt an Ordinance to comply amending Chapter 37 of the Salinas Municipal Code (Zoning Code) to rescind Section 37-50.250 (Accessory Dwelling Units), remove and modify Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) definitions of Section 37 -10.250 (“A” definitions), modify the ADU development regulations of Sections 37-30.020, 37-30-060, 37-30- 110, 37-30.160, 37-30.390, and 37-30.430, and apply applicable State ADU Law to process ADU applications.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City’s ADU Ordinance is out of compliance with State ADU Law. Chapter 37, Article VI, Division 14 provides for a process whereby all Zoning Code Amendments are brought before the City Council for a final decision. The proposed Zoning Code Amendment amends Chapter 37 of the Salinas Municipal Code (Zoning Code) to rescind Section 37 -50.250 (Accessory Dwelling Units), remove and modify Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) definitions of Section 37-10.250 (“A” definitions), modify the ADU development regulations of Sections 37-30.020, 37-30-060, 37-30- 110, 37-30.160, 37-30.390, and 37-30.430, and apply applicable State standards for the processing 781
Page | 2
of ADU applications. An updated ADU ordinance is being prepared as part of Phase One of the Zoning Code Update currently underway and scheduled for completion in spring 2026.
DISCUSSION:
Background:
Zoning Code Amendment 2025 -001 (ZCA 2025 -001) rescinds Section 37 -50.250 [(Accessory Dwelling Units) (ADU)] of Chapter 37 of the Salinas Municipal Code (Zoning Code). Both Zoning Code Sections 37-10.250 and 37-50.250 were originally established pursuant to Ordinance No. 2463 (Zoning Code), which was approved by the City Council on November 7, 2006. Zoning Code Section 37-10.250 was subsequently amended by the City Council pursuant to Ordinances 2507 which was approved on May 18, 2010, No. 2581 which was approved on December 6, 2016, and No. 2605 on July 3, 2018. Zoning Code Section 37 -50.250 was also amended by above referenced Ordinance No. 2581 and No. 2626 which was approved by the Council on November 5, 2019.
State ADU Law:
On January 1, 2020, after the latest City revision to Zoning Code Section 37 -50.250, California Government Code Sections 65852.2 and 65852.22 became effective. Section 65852.2 allowed for the development of ADUs and Section 65852.22 allowed for the development of Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs). On March 25, 2024, these Government Code Sections were renamed to the following:
Government Code Sections 66314 – 66332 (ADUs)
Government Code Sections 66333 – 66339 (JADUs)
Government Code Sections 66340 – 66342 (ADU Home Sales)
Per State law, Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs) are allowed to be created within the walls of a proposed or existing single-family residence and shall contain no more than 500 square feet.
JADUs offer additional housing options. They may share central systems, contain a basic kitchen utilizing small plug-in appliances, may share a bathroom with the primary dwelling, all to reduce development costs. JADUs present no additional stress on utility services or infrastructure because they simply repurpose existing space within the residence and do not expand the dwellings planned occupancy. JADUs are only allowed for owner -occupied properties unless the owner is another governmental agency, land trust, or housing o rganization. ADUs have no owner -occupied requirements. Development of JADUs are governed by Government Code Section 66333 through 66339.
The above referenced California Government Code Sections are not consistent with the City’s current ADU Ordinance (Zoning Code Sections 37-50.250). Because of this inconsistency, since 2020, staff has processed both of ADUs and JADUs pursuant to State ADU Law and the administrative building permit process. To avoid confusion, the State Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) recommends that the City rescind the current ADU Ordinance and follow the State ADU Law and guidelines until a compliant ADU ordinance is adopted. 782

Analysis:
The rescinding of the ADU Ordinance requires that the existing ADU definitions and development regulations be modified so that they comply with State ADU Law. Currently, ADU’s in the City are defined in Zoning Code Section 37-10.250 as either “Interior” or “Other” as stated below. The revisions in the ADU definitions would remove the “Interior” and “Other” definitions and modify the ADU definition so that it is consistent with State ADU Law. In addition, the classifications of Agricultural, Residential, Public/Semipublic, and New Urbanism Zoning District use classifications have been modified so that they are consistent with the new ADU definitions and State ADU Law.
The Amendment would modify and remove the following “Accessory Dwelling Unit” definitions from Section 37-10.250 (“A” definitions) as follows (changes in strikethrough/underline format):
“Sec. 37-10.250. – “A” definitions.
Accessory Dwelling Unit. An attached or a detached residential dwelling unit defined as either an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or a Junior Accessory Dwelling (JADU) that is constructed in compliance with State ADU Law. which provides complete independent living facilities for one or more persons, including permanent provisions for living, sleeping, eating, cooking, and sanitation, which is located on the same parcel as a single -family detached dwelling unit. An accessory dwelling unit must contain at least one hundred fifty square feet of floor area and may consist of an efficiency unit, as defined in Section 17958.1 of Health and Safety Code; or a manufactured home, as defined in Section 18007 of the Health and Safety Code.
Accessory Dwelling Unit, Interior. An accessory dwelling unit which is constructed in the R -L district entirely within the existing and legally created space of a single-family detached dwelling unit or accessory structure.
Accessory Dwelling Unit, Other. An accessory dwelling unit which is constructed either as a new detached accessory structure; as an addition to an existing single-family detached dwelling unit or an existing accessory structure; or entirely within the existing and legally created space of a single- family detached dwelling unit or accessory structure but not in the R-L district.
The Amendment would modify Zoning Code Section 37-30-020, Table 37-30.10, and Footnote 6 [Agricultural (A) Zoning District] as follows (changes in strikethrough/underline format):

The revision of the “Accessory Dwelling Unit” (ADU) definitions from Zoning Code Section 37-
10.250 are proposed because they are not consistent with the State definitions of “Accessory Dwelling Unit” and “Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit”. The revisions to Zoning Code Sections 37-30.020, 37 -30-060, 37 -30-110, 37 -30.160, 37 -30.390, and 37 -30.430 are also required for Zoning Code consistency with the modified definitions and State ADU Law. 788
Page | 9
CONCLUSION:
The proposed Zoning Code Amendment would modify “Accessory Dwelling Unit” definitions of Section 37 -10.250 (“A” definitions), modify Sections 37-30.020, 37 -30-060, 37 -30-110, 37 -
30.160, 37-30.390, and 37-30.430, rescind Section 37 -50.250 (Accessory Dwelling Units), and apply applicable State standards for the processing of Accessory Dwelling Unit ( ADU) applications. Findings in support of the Amendment are incorporated in the attached Planning Commission Resolution.

CITY OF SALINAS
COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: FEBRUARY 3, 2026
DEPARTMENT: CITY ADMINISTRATION
FROM: LISA MURPHY, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER
TITLE: ADOPTION OF ORDINANCES AMENDING ARTICLES XIV AND XIII OF CHAPTER 16 OF THE SALINAS MUNICIPAL CODE, AND
A RESOLUTION UPDATING ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES
PERTAINING TO UNLAWFUL CAMPING AND STORAGE OF
PERSONAL PROPERTY
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion to take the following actions:
1. Adopt an Ordinance amending Article XIV of Chapter 16 of the Salinas Municipal Code to update regulations prohibiting camping on public property;
2. Adopt an Ordinance Amending Article XIII of Chapter 16 of the Salinas Municipal Code related to the storage of personal property on public property; and
3. Approve a Resolution approving updated Administrative Procedures for the Removal of Unlawful Campsites, Bulky Items, and Personal Belongings.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The proposed Ordinance amendments and Resolution establish a coordinated regulatory and administrative framework to address encampments, and storage of personal property on public and certain private property within the City of Salinas. These actions recognize that individuals experiencing homelessness are members of our community who are facing complex and challenging circumstances. At the same time, the City has a responsibility to protect public health and safety, preserve access to public facilities, prevent damage to City infrastruct ure and environmental resources, and ensure that enforcement and removal activities are carried out in a clear, consistent, and legally compliant manner, with dignity and care.
BACKGROUND:
Over the past several years, the City of Salinas has experienced a significant increase in the number and size of encampments located on public property, waterways, parks, sidewalks, rights-of-way, and adjacent to public facilities. While these encampments reflect the very real housing and social 791
Page | 2
service needs within the community, their location and conditions have created challenges that affect both individuals living in encampments and the broader public, including:
Obstruction of sidewalks, streets, and access to public buildings; Accumulation of human waste, trash, hazardous materials, and drug paraphernalia; Environmental degradation of creeks and waterways;
Increased fire risk and damage to public infrastructure; and Diminished quality of life for residents, businesses, and visitors.
The City Council previously adopted Ordinances and Resolutions intended to address these issues.
Since that time , legal standards have changed through court cases , operational experience, and ongoing impacts to public health and safety. These changes require updates to both the Municipal Code and the City’s administrative procedures to ensure that our actions are lawful, effective and carried out with compassion.
Ordinance Amending Article XIV of Chapter 16 - Prohibition Against Camping.
The proposed Ordinance amending Article XIV of Chapter 16 of the Salinas Municipal Code is intended to clarify and strengthen prohibitions against camping on public property and other specified locations. The updates are aligned with the Governor’s recommendations regarding camping restrictions and are intended to balance compassion for individuals experiencing homelessness with the need to protect public spaces. The amendments are intended to:
Clearly define prohibited camping activities and structures on public property at any time;
Protect critical infrastructure and sensitive environmental areas; Reduce public health and safety hazards associated with encampments; and Ensure public spaces remain available for their intended public use.
Ordinance Amending Article XIII of Chapter 16 – Storage of Personal Property
The proposed Ordinance amending Article XIII of Chapter 16 of the Salinas Municipal Code updates regulations governing storage of personal property on public property. K ey updates include:
Reducing the noticing requirement regarding removal of an encampment from 72 hours to 48 hours. This is in alignment with the Governor of California recommendations; Preventing obstruction of sidewalks, streets and public rights-of-way; and Addressing public safety and sanitation concerns related to unattended or excessive property storage.
Resolution Updating City Administrative Procedures
The Resolution adopts updated Administrative Procedures to guide how City staff implements the above Ordinances. These procedures are designed to ensure that encampment removals are carried 792
Page | 3
out in a consistent, transparent, and coordinated manner, with an emphasis on outreach and engagement. The procedures provide guidance regarding:
Outreach efforts and notice requirements;
Identification and handling of hazardous materials;
Removal of unlawful encampments;
Storage, retrieval, and disposal of belongings; and
Coordination among City departments and service providers.
Adoption of the two Ordinances and approval of the Resolution provide a comprehensive, coordinated approach to addressing encampments and storage of personal property on public property and other locations while balancing compassion for individuals exper iencing homelessness with the City’s obligation to maintain safe, accessible and healthy public spaces for the entire community.
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 e nvironment. 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, Government Code §84308/Levine Act applies does not apply to this item.
STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:
Adoption of the Ordinances and approval of the Resolution meet the City Council strategic goal of promoting the health and safety of unsheltered residents, and increased collaboration with partner agencies to address public safety and public health issues.
DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:
This was a collaborative effort between City Administration, City Attorney, Public Works, Community Development, Fire, and Public Works departments.
FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ARTICLE XIV OF CHAPTER 16 OF THE SALINAS
MUNICIPAL CODE RELATED TO THE PROHIBITION AGAINST CAMPING
City Attorney Impartial Analysis
This ordinance amends Article XIV of Chapter 16 of the Salinas Municipal Code by prohibiting camping on public property at any time. This ordinance also makes clear that camping in or along waterways, in or on stormwater facilities, or in surface channels and outfalls is prohibited.
WHEREAS, Salinas is a Charter city organized and operating pursuant to Article 7 of the California Constitution; and
WHEREAS, through previous legislative enactments (Ordinance No. 2564, Ordinance No. 2567, Ordinance No. 2599 and Resolution Nos. 20884 and 20908), the City Council declared its intent to prevent the misappropriation of City property for personal use and the proliferation of encampments on public property that have a significant adverse effect on public health, safety, and welfare and impede or entirely obstruct access by emergency responders when responding to emergencies; and
WHEREAS, through its previous legislative enactments, the City Council made clear its intent to prevent the misappropriation of City property for personal use and to promote the public health, safety, and welfare by ensuring that City property remains accessible and usable by all members of the public for the purposes for which such public property is intended and by ensuring that City property remains in a clean, sanitary, and accessible condition; and WHEREAS, the public areas within the city, including streets, sidewalks, parks, public buildings, and public land, should be readily accessible, free from obstruction, and available to the public at large for use in a safe and healthy manner; and
WHEREAS, the use of these areas for overnight camping purposes interferes with the ability of residents and the public at large to use the areas in the healthy and safe manner for the uses intended; and
WHEREAS, such camping activity can c onstitute a public health and safety hazard, which adversely impacts other members of the public, neighborhoods, industrial, agricultural, and commercial areas; and
WHEREAS, in addition to the proliferation of camping and encampments on public property in the city of Salinas which has obstructed access by pedestrians and users of City facilities, individuals camping on public property and/or residing in encampments on public property frequently urinate and defecate on City property (and nearby private prope rty) and have been observed using and distributing narcotics and alcohol causing unsafe and unsanitary conditions to persist around and within the areas of the camps and/or the encampments creating an environment for the spread of disease and bacteria and an environment which prevents Salinas’s residents from using and accessing City facilities, including the City libraries and recreation centers; and
795
WHEREAS, City employees and members of the public at large have reported that overnight camping on City pro perty has specifically interfered with their use of public buildings, public sidewalks, public streets, parking lots, parking garages, and other open spaces, including the public space surrounding the library and the public space in front of City Hall; and WHEREAS, City employees leaving City Hall have been confronted by overnight campers screaming, yelling, and displaying other aggressive and erratic behavior that has made those employees fear for their safety upon egress of the building; and WHEREAS, Ci ty employees have been confronted by overnight campers subjecting them to unwanted sexual comments; and
WHEREAS, City employees have observed individuals around the City Permit Center and the adjacent parking structure engage in sexual activity, as well as illegal drug use; and WHEREAS, members of the public as well as City employees have complained about the smell of public places, including the area in front of City Hall and the areas around the City libraries (particularly the John Steinbeck Library) and City Permit Center and adjacent parking structure, as a result of individuals loitering in and around those areas and as a result of overnight camping activity, including urination and defecation by overnight campers; and WHEREAS, drug paraphernalia has been found at the site of the overnight camp in front of City Hall; and
WHEREAS, it has been reported that public spaces can no longer be used by residents and the public at large for the manner and uses in which they were intended, including specific complaints that outdoor public spaces, including, but not limited to, the space in front of City Hall, the space around the City Permit Center and adjacent parking structure, and the space around the John Steinbeck Library, including the grass areas in front o f the John Steinbeck Library, that were once used by residents and the public at large to recreate, eat lunch, and take breaks can no longer be used for those purposes as a result of the litter, urine and feces left by individuals loitering in and around those areas and as a result of the overnight campers in those areas; and
WHEREAS, the lawn areas and other spaces on or around City property, including most-notably the lawn areas in front of City Hall and in front of the John Steinbeck Library are frequently used by persons in such a manner that they have been damaged and or destroyed and in some cases present a danger to the health and safety of the community and of the patrons of those facilities; and
WHEREAS, City employees must regularly clean up and remove human waste from areas used for overnight camping including, but not limited to, the space in front of City Hall, the space surrounding the John Steinbeck Library, recreation centers, public parking lots, and public parking garages; and
WHEREAS, residents and the public at large are prevented from the use of the public areas within and around the city, including streets, sidewalks, parks, public building and public land when those areas are obstructed by a gathering preventing the free passage by use of any street, sidewalk, alley, public way, ingress to any public building, or place used by members of the public to go from place to place; and
796
WHEREAS, the abuse or mutilation of trees, plants, and lawn prevents residents and the public at large from the reasonable use and enjoyment of those items while costing the City substantial money and resources for the restoration of those items; and WHEREAS, urination and defecation outside of urinals, toilets, or commodes located in bathrooms, restrooms, or other structures specifically designated for the purpose of urination and defecation poses a significant health and safety problem to residents and the p ublic at large as well as costing the city substantial money and resources to clean; and WHEREAS, from 2020-2023, an encampment within the Carr Lake area grew to over one hundred separate encampments causing the degradation of waterways through trash accu mulation. The adjacent neighborhoods s aw an increase in criminal activity during this same time period including, but not limited to, acts of indecent exposure and gang-related crimes (homicides, drug dealing, human trafficking, and gambling). In November 2023, the City removed approximately two hundred tons of debris from this area. A wooden walkway (commonly known as the “boardwalk”) that runs along East Laurel Drive on Carr Lake’s south end suffered structural damage by unsheltered individuals removing t he wooden planks and digging underneath the boardwalk to establis h encampments, thereby undermini ng the structural integrity of this pedestrian walkway; and
WHEREAS, encampments along the Alisal Creek have caused degradation of water quality due to human feces and trash entering the waterway; and
WHEREAS, between 2020-2023, the waterway near Casentini Street and Main Street 2020 -2023, became polluted as a result of trash and human waste being deposited into the water way. The City cleaned out approximately ten tons of debris from this waterway. During this same time period, multiple fires occurred that were caused by individuals living in encampments along this waterway endangering nearby residential structures. Accumulated flammable debris have heightened fire risks within this area; and
WHEREAS, during the period 2020 -2025, the number of unsheltered individuals living in encampments in the Circle Drive and Cesar Chavez Park areas has significantly increased and impacted adjacent residential neighborhoods. Criminal activity including drug trafficking and residential theft has increased as a result, in addition to incidents of indecent exposure and evidence of drug use; and
WHEREAS, numerous shopping carts and camping paraphernalia routinely block the dead end of East San Luis Street as a result of the growing unsheltered population establishing encampments in this area; and
WHEREAS, the number of encampments in the CreekBridge area, from Veterans Parkway at East Laurel Drive to the rear of the Safeway grocery store on Constitution Boulevard has grown substantially. Public defecation and disposal of trash by the unsheltered living in these encampments into the waterway have caused degradation of water quality. Drug sales, drug use, and human trafficking are common within this encampment area. Residential theft and robberies have risen as a result of the growing encampment area; and 797
WHEREAS, the roadway underpass at Mark et Street is a focal point for unsheltered encampments leading to significant public health, safety, and quality of life concerns for nearby residents and commuters. The underpass’ location along a major roadway creates an intensified risk for residents of the encampment and for drivers as individuals from the encampment frequently walk into the roadway into traffic, endangering themselves and drivers. Fires started within the encampment cause damage to the roadway underpass threatening the structural integrity of the roadway. The proximity of this encampment to residential neighborhoods has lead to increased theft and vandalism, coupled with an increased insecurity among residents of the neighborhood. The visual blight of encampments adjacent to and within the residential neighborhood diminishes the quality of life for residents of the neighborhood; and WHEREAS, during the period 2020 -2023, the number of encampments within the Chinatown area has increased significantly resulting in an equally significant deterioration of the neighborhood due to increased crime; increased threats to public health from the presence of human waste, trash, rodents and vermin, drugs, and toxic waste. Police operations within this area during this time period and to the present have uncovered extensive drug use and possession (including methamphetamine and fentanyl), possession of dange rous w eapons (including knives, guns, and a hand grenade), and signs of gang control (where gangs exploit the unsheltered population by imposing “taxes” and coercing unsheltered into drug trafficking and other criminal activities). Local business are impac ted by the presence of encampments by the blockage of sidewalks and entryways, which deter customers and visitors; and WHEREAS, the waterway on the Rico Street and West Lake Street area has been plagued by encampments leading to significant enviro nmental issues. The waterway, vital for local agricultural and natural systems, has suffered contamination due to widespread drug use and the presence of human waste; and
WHEREAS, activities within Sherwood Park have been negatively affected by the presence of encampments, rendering it unsafe for use by the community. Widespread defecation and urination have created unhealthy conditions within the area set up with tables and benches for park users. Drug paraphernalia is present throughout the park posing a threat t o the health, safety, and welfare of park users; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds and determines that it is necessary to maintain public and private lands, streets, sidewalks, alleys, ways, creeks, waterways, parks, playgrounds, recreation areas, plazas, open spaces, lots, parcels and other public and private areas within the city, in a clean, sanitary and accessible condition and to protect the health, safety and welfare of the community, while recognizing that, subject to reasonable conditions, c amping and camping facilities associated with special events can be beneficial to the cultural and educational well - being of the city; and
WHEREAS, private property owners have complained to the City about the scope, size, and number of encampments on thei r property and the negative health and safety consequences 798
associated with those encampments and have regularly requested the City’s assistance in cleaning up those encampments; and
WHEREAS, it is necessary and urgent for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, and safety of the residents of the city and the public at large to enact an emergency measure to address the negative health and safety consequences associated with overnight encampments, including, but not limited to the health and s afety consequences created by the accumulation of human waste, the accumulation of garbage, including used needles used for the administration of drugs intravenously, and the safety of city employees from aggressive behavior and unwanted sexual comments; and
WHEREAS, updates to the Salinas Municipal Code are necessary in order to address issues associated with individuals loitering in and around public spaces and also associated with overnight camping within the city and the establishment of encampments on public property and private property; and
WHEREAS, the potential destruction of, damage to, or interference with, infrastructure that is critical to the provision of public services such as law enforcement, fire prevention, transportation, and utilities, including water and waste disposal is a principal threat to the public health, safety, and welfare. Destruction of, damage to, or interference with, critical infrastructure is caused by fire, contamination, restricting access, or other causes. Destruction of, damage to, or interference with, critical infrastructure is often caused by persons whose activities are not permitted or authorized in, on, or near critical infrastructure;

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ARTICLE XIII OF CHAPTER 16 OF THE SALINAS
MUNICIPAL CODE RELATED TO THE STORAGE OF PERSONAL BELONGINGS
ON CITY PROPERTY
City Attorney Impartial Analysis
This ordinance amends Article XIII of Chapter 16 of the Salinas Municipal Code by prohibiting the storage of any personal property on City property and by redefining what personal property will be collected and stored as a part of the City’s enforcement of the Ordinance by cleaning-up an encampment. This ordinance also reduces the pre-cleanup noticing requirement to twenty- four hours and reduces the length of time personal belongings collected at a cleanup will be stored to sixty (60) days. This ordinance also allows for removal of personal property without prior notice in exigent circumstances involving an imminent threat to life, safety, health, or infrastructure.
WHEREAS, Salinas is a Charter city organized and operating pursuant to Article 7 of the California Constitution; and

WHEREAS, the use of these areas for overnight camping purposes interferes with the ability of residents and the public at large to use the areas in the healthy and safe manner for the uses intended; and
WHEREAS, such camping activity can constitute a public health and safety hazard, which adversely impacts other memb ers of the public, neighborhoods, industrial, agricultural, and commercial areas; and
WHEREAS, in addition to the proliferation of camping and encampments on public property in the city of Salinas which has obstructed access by pedestrians and users of Cit y facilities, individuals camping on public property and/or residing in encampments on public property frequently urinate and defecate on City property (and nearby private property) and have been observed using and distributing narcotics and alcohol causing unsafe and unsanitary conditions 805
to persist around and within the areas of the camps and/or the encampments creating an environment for the spread of disease and bacteria and an environment which prevents Salinas’s residents from using and accessing City facilities, including the City libraries and recreation centers; and
WHEREAS, City employees and members of the public at large have reported that overnight camping on City property has specifically interfered with their use of public buildings, public sidewalks, public streets, parking lots, parking garages, and other open spaces, including the public space surrounding the library and the public space in front of City Hall; and WHEREAS, City employees leaving City Hall have been confronted by overnight campers screaming, yelling, and displaying other aggressive and erratic behavior that has made those employees fear for their safety upon egress of the building; and WHEREAS, City employees have been confronted by overnight campers subjecting them to unwanted sexual comments; and

WHEREAS, the lawn areas and other spaces on or around City property, including most-notably the lawn areas in front of City Hall and in front of the John Steinbeck Library are frequently used by persons in such a manner that they have been damaged and or d estroyed and in some cases present a danger to the health and safety of the community and of the patrons of those facilities; and
WHEREAS, City employees must regularly clean up and remove human waste from areas used for overnight camping including, but no t limited to, the space in front of City Hall, the space surrounding the John Steinbeck Library, recreation centers, public parking lots, and public parking garages; and
WHEREAS, residents and the public at large are prevented from the use of the public areas within and around the city, including streets, sidewalks, parks, public building and public land when those areas are obstructed by a gathering preventing the free passage by use of any street, 806
sidewalk, alley, public way, ingress to any public buildi ng, or place used by members of the public to go from place to place; and

The adjacent neighborhoods saw an increase in criminal activity during this same time period including, but not limited to, acts of indecent exposure and gang-related crimes (homicides, drug dealing, human trafficking, and gambling). In November 2023, the City removed approximately two hundred tons of debris from this area. A wooden walkway (commonly known as the “boardwalk”) that runs along East Laurel Drive on Carr Lake’s south end suffered structural damage by unsheltered individuals removing the wooden planks and digging underneath the boardwalk to establish encampments, thereby undermining the structural integrity of this pedestrian walkway; and
WHEREAS, encampments along the Alisal Creek have caused degradation of water quality due to human feces and trash entering the waterway; and
WHEREAS, between 2020-2023, the waterway near Casentini Street and Main Street 2020 -2023, became polluted as a result of trash and human waste being deposited into the waterway. The City cleaned out approximately ten tons of debris from this waterway. During this same time period, multiple fires occurred that were caused by individuals living in encampments along this waterway endangering nearby residential structures. Accumulated flammable debris have heightened fire risks within this area; and
WHEREAS, during the period 2020 -2025, the number of unsheltered individuals living in encampments in the Circle Drive and Cesar Chavez Park areas has significantly increased and impacted adjacent residential neighborhoods. Criminal activity including drug trafficking and residential theft has increased as a result, in addition to incidents of indecent exposure and evidence of drug use; and
WHEREAS, numerous shopping carts and camping paraphernalia routinely block the dead end of East San Luis Street as a result of the growing unsheltered population establishing encampments in this area; and
WHEREAS, the number of encampments in the CreekBridge area, from Veterans Parkway at East Laurel Drive to the rear of the Safeway grocery store on Constitution Boulevard has grown substantially. Public defecation and disposal of trash by the unsheltered living in these encampments into the waterway have caused degradation of water quality. Drug sales, drug use, 807
and human trafficking are common within this encampment area. Residential theft and robberies have risen as a result of the growing encampment area; and WHEREAS, the roadway underpass at Market Street is a focal point for unsheltered encampments leading to significant public health, safety, and quality of life concerns for nearby residents and commuters. The underpass’ location along a major roadway creates an intensified risk for residents of the encampment and for drivers as individuals from the encampment frequently walk into the roadway into traffic, endangering themselves and drivers. Fires started within the encampment cause damage to the roadway underpass threatening the structural integrity of the roadway. The proximity of this encampment to residential neighborhoods has lead to increased theft and vandalism, coupled with an increased insecurity among residents of the neighborhood. The visual blight of encampments adjace nt to and within the residential neighborhood diminishes the quality of life for residents of the neighborhood; and WHEREAS, during the period 2020 -2023, the number of encampments within the Chinatown area has increased significantly resulting in an equall y significant deterioration of the neighborhood due to increased crime; increased threats to public health from the presence of human waste, trash, rodents and vermin, drugs, and toxic waste.

Local business are impacted by the presence of encampments by the blockage of sidewalks and entryways, which deter customers and visitors; and WHEREAS, the waterway on the Rico Street and West Lake Street area has been plagued by encampments leading to significant environmental issues. The waterway, vital for local agricultural and natural systems, has suffered contamination due to widespread drug use and the presence of human waste; and
WHEREAS, activities within Sherwood Park have been negatively affected by the presence of encampments, rendering it unsafe for use by the community. Widespread defecation and urination have created unhealthy conditions within the area set up with tables and benches for park users. Drug paraphernalia is present throughout the park posing a threat to the health, safety, and welfare of park users; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds and determines that it is necessary to maintain public and private lands, streets, sidewalks, alleys, ways, creeks, waterways, parks, playgrounds, recreation areas, plazas, open spaces, lots, parcels and other public and private areas within the city, in a clean, sanitary and accessible condition and to protect the health, safety and welfare of the community, while recognizing that, subject to reasonable conditions, camping and camping facilities associated with special events can be beneficial to the cultural and educational well - being of the city; and
808
WHEREAS, private property owners have complained to the City about the scope, size, and number of encampments on their property and the negative health and safety consequences associated with those encampments and have regularly requested the City’s assist ance in cleaning up those encampments; and
WHEREAS, it is necessary and urgent for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, and safety of the residents of the city and the public at large to enact an emergency measure to address the negative health and safety consequences associated with overnight encampments, including, but not limited to the health and safety consequences created by the accumulation of human waste, the accumulation of garbage, including used needles used for the administrat ion of drugs intravenously, and the safety of city employees from aggressive behavior and unwanted sexual comments; and
WHEREAS, updates to the Salinas Municipal Code are necessary in order to address issues associated with individuals loitering in and aro und public spaces and also associated with overnight camping within the city and the establishment of encampments on public property and private property; and
WHEREAS, the potential destruction of, damage to, or interference with, infrastructure that is critical to the provision of public services such as law enforcement, fire prevention, transportation, and utilities, including water and waste disposal is a principal threat to the public health, safety, and welfare. Destruction of, damage to, or interference with, critical infrastructure is caused by fire, contamination, restricting access, or other causes. Destruction of, damage to, or interference with, critical infra structure is often caused by persons whose activities are not permitted or authorized in, on, or near critical infrastructure; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF SALINAS as follows:
SECTION 1. Article XIII of Chapter 16 of the Salinas Munici pal Code is hereby amended as follows:
Article XIII. Storage of Personal Property on City Property
Sec. 16-130.010. Purpose.
The public areas within the city, including streets, sidewalks, parks, public building s, and public land, should be readily accessible and available to residents and the public at large for use in a safe and healthy manner. The use of these areas for the storage of personal property interferes with the ability of residents and the public at large to use the areas in the healthy and safe manner for the uses intended. Such storage and the attendant negative effects can constitute a public health and safety hazard, which adversely impacts other members of the public and neighborhoods, as well as industrial, agricultural, and commercial areas. Nonetheless, individuals who have no access to private spaces, nonetheless need to retain access to a limited amount of personal property in public areas. A purpose of this article is to strike a balance between the need of residents and the public at large to reasonable, safe access to public space s and the needs of individuals without access to private spaces to retain access to a limited amount of personal property. It is necessary to maintain public and private lands, streets, sidewalks, alleys, ways, creeks, waterways, parks, playgrounds, recreation areas, plazas, open spaces, lots, parcels and other public infrastructure and public and 809
