The work for which this bid is submitted is for construction in conformance with the Bid Book, (including the payment of not less than the State general prevailing wage rates), the Project Plans and Special Provisions described below, including any addenda thereto, the Contract Agreement annexed hereto, and also in conformance with the California Department of Transportation Standard Plans, dated 2018, the California Department of Transportation Standard Specifications, dated 2018, the California Department of Transportation Revised Standard Specifications, dated May 31, 2018, the Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rental Rates in effect on the date the work is accomplished, the 2008 Marin Uniform Construction Standards, and documents included in the specifications by reference.

MEMORIAL PARK ATHLETIC FIELD RENOVATION PROJECT
TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO
Bids are to be submitted for the entire work. The amount of the bid for comparison purposes will be the total of all items in the Base Bid.
The bidder shall set forth for each unit basis item of work a unit price and a total for the item, and for each lump sum item a total for the item, all in clearly legible figures in the respective spaces provided for that purpose. In the case of unit basis items, the amount set forth under the "Item Total" column shall be the product of the unit price bid and the estimated quantity for the item.
In case of discrepancy between the unit price and the total set forth for a unit basis item, the unit price shall prevail, except as provided in (a) or (b), as follows:
(a) If the amount set forth as a unit price is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, or is the same as the amount as the entry in the item total column, then the amount set forth in the item total column for the item shall prevail and shall be divided by the estimated quantity for the item and the price thus obtained shall be the unit price;
(b) (Decimal Errors) If the product of the entered unit price and the estimated quantity is exactly off by a factor of ten, one hundred, etc., or one-tenth, or one-hundredth, etc. from the entered total, the discrepancy will be resolved by using the entered unit price or item total, whichever most closely approximates percentagewise the unit price or item total in the TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO’s Final Estimate of cost.
If both the unit price and the item total are unreadable or otherwise unclear, or are omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular. Likewise if the item total for a lump sum item is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular unless the project being bid has only a single item and a clear, readable total bid is provided.
Symbols such as commas and dollar signs will be ignored and have no mathematical significance in establishing any unit price or item total or lump sums. Written unit prices, item totals and lump sums will be interpreted according to the number of digits and, if applicable, decimal placement. Cents symbols also have no significance in establishing any unit price or item total since all figures are assumed to be expressed in dollars and/or decimal fractions of a dollar. Bids on lump sum items shall be item totals only; if any unit price for a lump sum item is included in a bid and it differs from the item total, the items total shall prevail.
The foregoing provisions for the resolution of specific irregularities cannot be so comprehensive as to cover every omission, inconsistency, error or other irregularity that may occur in a bid. Any situation not specifically provided for will be determined in the discretion of the TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO, and that discretion will be exercised in the manner deemed by the TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO to best protect the public interest in the prompt and economical completion of the work. The decision of the TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO respecting the amount of a bid, or the existence or treatment of an irregularity in a bid, shall be final.
The quantities of work under each item are approximate only, being given for a basis of comparison of Bids, and the right is reserved to the Town to increase or decrease the amount of work under any item as may be required, in accordance with provisions set forth in the specifications for this project.
The total amount of money set forth for each item of work or as the total amount bid for the project does not constitute an agreement to pay a lump sum for the work unless it specifically so states.

Staff Report
525 San Anselmo Avenue
San Anselmo, CA 94960
TO: Town Council 6/28/2022 Item #: 1.4.
FROM:
Erica Freeman, Building Official
SUBJECT:
Adoption of an Ordinance Amending the San Anselmo Municipal Code adding Chapter 24 “All Electric Construction in Newly Constructed Residential Buildings” to Title 9 “Building Regulations”; and Amendment to Chapter 9-19 “Green Building Requirements” for consistency.
RECOMMENDATION
That the Town Council adopt the attached Ordinance Amending the San Anselmo Municipal Code adding Chapter 24 “All Electric Construction in Newly Constructed Residential Buildings” to Title 9 “Building Regulations”; and Amendment to Chapter 9-19 “Green Building Requirements” for consistency.
BACKGROUND
At the June 14, 2022, Town Council meeting, the Council introduced by title only and waived further reading of the attached Ordinance. A link to the video and materials from that meeting are available at <https://sananselmo-ca.legistar.com/Calendar.aspx>
DISCUSSION
The Ordinance Amendment requires that all new residential buildings must completely utilize electricity as a permanent source of power. No natural gas or propane infrastructure would be allowed in newly constructed residential buildings.
The State of California adopts new building standards every three years, codified in Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations known as the California Building Standards Code. (“California Building Code.” Municipalities adopt the California Building Code by reference into their own local codes. San Anselmo adopted its most recent update in November 2019, Title 9, Chapter 1 “Construction Codes”. The California Building Code and the Town Code currently contain energy-efficient requirements, such as “green” building requirements.
In addition, State law allows local jurisdictions to adopt more stringent local amendments to the building code if reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions. (See i.e., Health & Saf. Code, § 17958.7.)
The California Building Code (as currently applied in the Town) does not dictate the type of energy to be used in new buildings. Rather, it provides prescriptive and performance based environmental requirements. The Climate Action Committee supported the Ordinance, which is intended to reduce the use of fossil fuels and promote cleaner electric power.

TO: Town Council 6/28/2022 Item #: 1.4.
Fossil fuel usage, such as natural gas, has several drawbacks:
· The primary component in natural gas is methane, which is a pollutant that contributes to climate change. Climate change has contributed to extreme weather and hazard conditions including wildfires, drought, and flooding.
· Methane pollution can occur throughout a natural gas system including leaks within homes and buildings.
· Methane pollution may also occur when natural gas is burned in a building by appliances including cooking, space heating, and clothing washers and driers. · Indoor natural gas use for cooking can pollute indoor air quality. · A benefit to having natural gas connections is that it provides resiliency, especially during a Public Safety Power Shutoff.
In April 2020 the Town adopted new Reach Codes which allowed all construction to be mixed fuel, limited mixed fuel or all electric. Since the adoption of this ordinance staff does not believe anyone has gone all electric in homes but a number of Accessory Dwelling Units have.
Requiring that new residential buildings use electric power benefits the environment and promotes green electric energy. Approximately 50 California jurisdictions, including the Town of Fairfax and the City of Petaluma, have adopted ordinance amendments to require new construction to be all electric.
The Ordinance Amendment would apply to all new construction residential building permit applications submitted on or after the effective date of the new ordinance. It will require all newly constructed residential buildings to be constructed to use solely electric power. A “newly constructed building” is defined as a building that has “never been used or occupied for any purpose”, mirroring the definition used by many California jurisdictions with similar ordinances including the Town of Fairfax. Substantial remodels would not be subject to the ordinance; however, based on direction from the Council, staff will return with additional information when the Council considers adoption of the County’s Reach Codes later this year.
The Ordinance Amendment contains narrow exemptions. First, under the public interest exemption, the Town may allow the installation of natural gas infrastructure in a newly constructed residential building if it determines that it is in the public interest. The Town may consider factors including, but not limited to, the availability of alternative technologies or systems that do not use natural gas, and the impact the decision may have on the public health, welfare, and safety. However, the building must include sufficient electrical infrastructure such as wiring and conduit to facilitate full electrification in the future. Additionally, the Town Building Official may grant an exemption if it determines that full electrification is physically infeasible under the circumstances. All exempt projects remain subject to other green building code requirements.
A survey link was sent out with the Town’s newsletter dated May 14, 2022 and closed on May 23, 2022. (Attachment 3). 96 people responded to the survey, which was attached to the June 14, 2022 staff report.
Finally, the attached Ordinance Amendment provides that the requirements shall constitute “objective standards” pursuant to SB 35 (Gov. Code § 65913.4), the Housing Accountability Act (Gov. Code § 65589.5) and SB9. By way of background, these State laws only allow a municipality to impose objective standards to certain Town of San Anselmo Page 2 of 3 Printed on 6/23/2022

TO: Town Council 6/28/2022 Item #: 1.4.
housing development projects.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no significant financial impact associated with the Ordinance Amendment.
GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
The proposed Ordinance Amendment is consistent with the General Plan.
CEQA AND CLIMATE ACTION PLAN CONSISTENCY
The proposed Ordinance Amendment is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(5) because it is not a “project’ under CEQA; CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3), the “common sense exemption”, because the proposed Ordinance Amendment will not have a significant environmental effect; and CEQA Guidelines section 15307 and 15308 as an action taken by a regulatory agency to protect the environment.
The Town’s long term climate action goal as set forth in the Climate Action Plan includes the electrification and the phase-out of fossil fuels by upgrading and replacing fossil fuel-based infrastructure throughout the transportation and building sectors with cleaner electric power. (Climate Action Plan, p. 8.) Additionally, Chapter 2 of the Climate Action Plan encourages the use of electric power in new construction. The proposed Ordinance Amendment is consistent with the Climate Action Plan because it reduces the use of nonrenewable fossil fuels in newly constructed buildings and promotes environmentally cleaner electric power.
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends that the Town Council consider the adoption of the attached Ordinance Amendment.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1: Environmental Review. The Ordinance Amendment is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(5) because it is not a “project’ under CEQA; CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3), the “common sense exemption”, because the proposed Ordinance Amendment will not have a significant environmental effect; and CEQA Guidelines section 15307 and 15308 as an action taken by a regulatory agency to protect the environment.
SECTION 2: The above recitals are true and correct and are incorporated as findings herein.
SECTION 3: Chapter 24 “All Electric Construction in Newly Constructed Residential Buildings” of Title 9 “Building Regulations” is hereby added as follows:
9-24.01 – Findings and Purpose.
The Town Council of the Town of San Anselmo expressly declares and finds that:
(a) A primary component in natural gas is methane, which is a pollutant that significantly contributes to climate change.
(b) The combustion of natural gas and leakage occurring during the procurement, transportation, storage, distribution, and usage of natural gas produces emissions of methane that contributes to climate change.
(c) The adoption of this San Anselmo Municipal Code Chapter 9-24 “All Electric Construction in Newly Constructed Residential Buildings”, is reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geologic, and topographical conditions as set forth below:
(1) Flooding Hazards. The Town of San Anselmo has historically been subject to damaging floods during significant rain events due to the flooding of the San Anselmo Creek. Many areas of San Anselmo are located within flood zones subject to a high risk of flooding as defined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Extreme weather and sudden large rain events fueled by climate change have caused flood events in San Anselmo to become more common. Requiring newly constructed buildings to utilize only electric power will reduce greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change and flooding events.
(2) Wildfire Hazards. The Town of San Anselmo is located near a wildland-urban interface area vulnerable to wildfires. The hilly topography of the Town combined with its narrow roads constrain the fire department’s ability to respond to fires. The Town of San Anselmo is also subject to drought conditions that have increased wildfire risk. The climatic conditions of drought, combined with the geologic and topographical conditions of the Town, significantly increase the risk of a catastrophic wildfire. Reducing the use of combustible natural gas and associated infrastructure will reduce fire risks, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change.
(3) Seismic Hazards. San Anselmo is located near several active seismic faults with the potential to cause damaging earthquakes. The San Andreas Fault runs north and south Item 1.4 Attachment 1
Item 1.4 Attachment 1
336
in the Western side of Marin County approximately 9 miles from the Town, and several other faults are within 15 miles of the Town including the Hayward Fault, the Rodgers Creek Fault, and the San Andreas Fault. Earthquakes can damage natural gas infrastructure causing gas leaks and significant fire hazards. New building electrification requirements and the accompanying reduction in natural gas use are reasonably necessary to reduce the risk of gas leaks and fire caused by earthquakes. 9-24.02– Applicability.
(a) Unless exempt, the requirements of this chapter apply to all newly constructed residential buildings.
(b) This chapter shall in no way be constructed to amend Energy Code requirements under Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations Part 6 or part 1, nor as requiring the use or installation of any specific appliance of system. (c) This chapter shall not apply to portable propane appliances as used for outdoor cooking and heating.
9-24-03 – Definitions. For the purposes of this chapter the following definitions apply:
(a) “All electric building” means a building that uses a permanent supply of electricity as the source of energy for space heating, water heating (including pools and spas), cooking appliances, clothing drying appliances, that has no natural gas or propane plumbing installed in the building.
(b) “Energy Code” means the California Energy Code as adopted in San Anselmo Municipal Code section 9-1.101.
(c) “Newly constructed residential building” means a residential building that has never been used or occupied for any purpose, and has not been granted and/or is not subject to a valid building permit that remains in effect.
9-24.04 – Requirement for All Electric Construction in Newly Constructed Residential Buildings. A newly constructed residential building must satisfy the definition of an all electric building.
9-24.05 – Exemptions. The following are exempt from the requirements of this chapter. If an exemption applies, the newly constructed building shall remain subject to other applicable Town building codes including Chapter 9-19 “Green Building Requirements”. (a) The Building Official may allow natural gas infrastructure in a newly constructed residential building if the applicant establishes the building is not able to achieve the performance compliance standard under the Energy Code using commercially available technology or there is not an all-electric prescriptive compliance pathway under the Energy Code.
(b) The Building Official may allow natural gas infrastructure in a newly constructed residential building if the applicant establishes that there is an equivalent greenhouse gas reduction to that of all-electric construction.
(c) For all exemptions hereunder, natural gas appliance locations must also be electrically pre-wired for future electric appliance installation as approved by the Building Official.
Item 1.4 Attachment 1
Item 1.4 Attachment 1
337
9-24-06 – Objective Standard. The requirements of this chapter shall be determined to constitute “objective standards” under current and future State housing laws including but not limited to Government Code sections 65913.4 (SB35), 65589.5 (the Housing Accountability Act) and 65852.21 (SB9).
SECTION 4: Chapter 19 “Green Building Requirements” of Title 9 “Building Regulations” is amended as follows. Deleted language in strikeout, new language in underline, existing language unchanged.
9-19-030 – Applicability
The provisions of this chapter shall apply to all construction or development projects defined below as a “covered project.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this chapter, Chapter 9-24 “All Electric Construction in Newly Constructed Residential Buildings” shall apply to newly constructed buildings as defined in said chapter, unless exempt.
SECTION 5: Severability. The Town Council hereby declares every section, paragraph, sentence, clause, and phrase is severable. If any section, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase of these ordinance amendments are for any reason found to be invalid or unconstitutional, such invalidity, or unconstitutionality shall not affect the validity or constitutionality of the remaining sections, paragraphs, sentences, clauses or phrases.
SECTION 6: Effective Date. This Ordinance Amendment shall go into effect thirty (30) days from its adoption and shall be posted or published as required by state law.
SECTION 7: Submission to California Building Standards Commission. The Ordinance Amendment shall be submitted to the California Building Standards Commission pursuant to State law.

Jeff Zuba, Finance & Administrative Services Director
SUBJECT:
Revenue and Expenditure Reports, May 2022
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the monthly year-to-date Revenue and Expenditure Reports and corresponding activity for the period ending through May 31, 2022.
BACKGROUND
Every reporting period end, the Town of San Anselmo presents to the Town Council its operations as shown on the Revenue and Expenditure reports for discussion and approval. The Revenue and Expenditure reports are year-to-date summaries of revenues and expenditures from the Town’s financial system (‘Tyler Incode’) for both the current as well as the prior corresponding fiscal year. These reports include the General Fund’s operations given most of the Town-level operational activities are processed through the General Fund either directly or indirectly. This approval is to be obtained once a month within the fiscal year.
ANALYSIS
The revenue and expenditure data through May 31, 2022, is a compilation of all operating activity that is year-to-date for the current and prior fiscal year. These reports are sourced directly from the Town’s financial system, of which a corresponding analysis has been performed identifying the key trends the Town Council should take note about.
Revenues
Overall, through the May 2022 reporting period end, the Town’s General Fund revenue has expanded its base relative to prior year by $1.19M. This is primarily from the increase in property taxes, sales taxes, and fines offset by Transfers In. All other activity is either flat year-over-year or nets correspondingly to an immaterial change-all of which are within management’s expectations.

As shown above, the Town’s revenue base overall increased by $1.19M of which is driven by Property Taxes, Sales Tax, and Fines:
· Property Taxes increased by $0.908M compared to the prior period due to increased values on properties due to the active real estate market.
· Sales Taxes increased by $0.305M compared to the prior period is a result of improving economic conditions from the COVID-19 Pandemic conditions within the Town’s boundaries. With greater confidence in security and safety of public health, consumer sentiment is rising giving way to increased sales transactions. · Fines increased by $0.027M compared to the prior period as enforcement returns to normal following relaxed protocols during the heigh of the pandemic.
The largest decrease to ($0.062M) transfers into the General Fund. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic $0.060M was returned in FY20 to the General Fund from the Robson House Fund as the project for dry rot repair and exterior painting was put on hold. As far as the other revenue streams, these changes either decreased or remained relatively flat yearover-year resulting in an immaterial change.
Expenditures
Overall, through the May 2022 reporting period end, the Town’s General Fund expenditures have increased compared to the prior year by $0.865M. This is primarily from increases in compensation, CalPERS retirement payments, Outside Services, and other expenditures. All other activity is either flat year-over-year or nets correspondingly to an immaterial change-all of which are within management’s expectations.

TO: Town Council 6/28/2022 Item #: 1.5.
due to the 5% maximum salary reduction put in place for the previous fiscal year. This salary reduction affected both SEIU and Unrepresented Town employees through the end of the 2021 fiscal year. In addition, the employee groups received cost of living adjustments on July 1, 2021, and January 1, 2022. · Expenditures relating to CalPERS retirement increased by $0.098M due to the Town’s required unfunded pension liability payment. The required retirement payment to CalPERS is a combination of both the contribution for the active and retired employees. This payment increased by $80,985 as compared to the previous fiscal year.
· Outside Services decreased by $0.505M compared to the previous fiscal year due to the changes in payments for Public Safety JPA’s and construction project activity. · Transfers to other funds decreased by $0.085M due to mid-year budget transfers in the previous fiscal year for project activity.
As far as the other expenditure streams, these changes either slightly changed or remained flat year-over-year resulting in an immaterial change. All other changes are taken together overall immaterial for further discussion and are expected given the Town’s operations.
CONCLUSION
As inspected, the Town’s financial position is continuously improving compared to the prior fiscal year given the economic recovery from the COVID-19 Pandemic. In anticipation through the end of the current fiscal year, these trends are expected to continue with increased revenue collection from this positive economic traction.

SUBJECT:
May Financial Report on Recreation Fund
RECOMMENDATION
That the Council approve the Recreation Fund Revenue and Expenditure Report for the period ending May 31, 2022.
BACKGROUND
The Recreation Department offers a wide variety of fee-based programs throughout the fiscal year including sports programs and leagues, youth and adult classes, childcare and camps. Additional revenue is generated through facility rentals and administrative fees.
DISCUSSION
As of May 31, 2022, 92% of the fiscal year has elapsed and the Recreation Fund is listed at 159% of projected revenues and 98% of projected expenditures.
Enrollment for recreation programs is much higher than expected for FY 2021-22. As a result, the expenditures will also be higher. The budget was drafted with numbers based on County Public Health orders for COVID 19. As the orders have changed, the department has been able to serve more members of the community.
It is also important to note that the current budget has a $158,744 deficit which is reflected in the difference between the revenue budgeted at $1,348,625 and the budget expenditures of $1,507,369.
All the revenue that is collected for summer programs occurring after July 1, 2022, will be deferred to FY 2022-23.
Summer registration began in March.
The State and County Public Health Orders for COVID-19 are designed to ensure and protect the health of our residents.
The orders change the Recreation Department’s ability to offer services, programs, and rentals. The Department continues to follow all guidance.
For historical comparison purposes, staff has developed the following table.

FROM:
Heidi Scoble, Planning Director
SUBJECT:
Confirm the Recommended Appointments to the Housing Element Advisory Committee
RECOMMENDATION
Confirm the recommended appointments to the Housing Element Advisory Committee
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The State of California requires that Housing Element is required to be updated every eight years and is the only element in the General Plan that is required to be reviewed and approved by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). In advance of the Housing Update process, every County/City/Town in California receives a target number of homes to plan for at various income levels. This is called the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). RHNA starts with the Regional Housing Needs Determination (RHND) provided by HCD, which is the total number of housing units the San Francisco Bay Area needs over the eight- year period, by income group. The Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) developed the methodology to allocate a portion of housing needs to each city, town, and county in the region. The RHNA allocation for San Anselmo increased from 106 units in the 2015-2023 cycle to 833 units in the 2023 -2031 cycle.
To ensure a broad and include community outreach and engagement process, in addition to facilitating the Housing Element Update undertaking, the Town Council adopted Resolution 4434 to establish a Housing Element Advisory Committee (HEAC). The HEAC was established to be comprised of seven members (Mayor Fineman and Councilmember Burke), one Planning Commissioner, and four San Anselmo residents.
In anticipation of the establishment of the HEAC, the Town began advertising on the City’s website for interested San Anselmo residents to apply. The application period ran from June 8 through June 18. The Town received 10 applications.
On Monday, June 20 and Tuesday, June 21, Mayor Fineman, Councilmember Burke, Town Manager Donery and Planning Director Scoble conducted nine interviews. At the conclusion of the interviews, it was determined that the following applicants should be confirmed as the appointments to the HEAC and would represent backgrounds which include finance and lending, leadership and meeting facilitation, architecture and construction management, and experience in working with diversity, equity, and inclusion:

TO: Town Council 6/28/2022 Item #: 1.7.
· Richard Redmond
· Kathy Ogren
· Sandra Becker
· Robin Poppers
Although the four above are recommended to be appointed to the HEAC, it is worth noting that all of the applicants are extremely well qualified and the Town staff will encourage the applicants to stay involved in the Housing Element Update process as participants.
Lastly, at a Special Planning Commission meeting on June 23, the Planning Commission voted to appoint Planning Commissioner Chair Tom Tunny. Chair Tunny is an attorney with a focus on land use and planning law.
FISCAL IMPACT
Confirming the appointments of the members to the HEAC will not create any fiscal impact.
GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
The Housing Element is required to be updated every eight years and is the only General Plan element which is required to be reviewed and approved by the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The purpose of the HEAC is to help facilitate the Housing Element Update process, therefore the appointments to the HEAC will be consistent with the intent of the General Plan.
CEQA AND CLIMATE ACTION PLAN CONSISTENCY
Appointments to serve on a committee is not a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act because it does not involve an activity which has the potential to cause a direct or reasonably foreseeable physical change in the environment. (Cal. Pub. Res. Code Section 21065).
CONCLUSION
The San Anselmo Housing Element must be submitted to the State by January 2023. To help with the Housing Element Process and to populate the HEAC, staff respectfully requests the Town Council confirm the appointments of Richard Redmond, Kathy Ogren, Sandra Becker, Robin Poppers, and Planning Commissioner Jennifer Asselstine.
