Subject: San Anselmo Rent Control
Date: Tuesday, June 27, 2023 9:30:20 AM
CAUTION: External Sender
Dear Town Council,
Less government interference in the free market us good. More government interference in a free market leads to a lot of unexpected and unwanted consequences.

There's really to need for you to meddle in this issue. We don't need your help to fix something that a few people with loud voices would like you to fix for their own gain. For the record, my wife and I own and lease a commercial building in town, but have no residential rentals.

Thank you.

Rick Barham

Hi there -
I am forwarding you this important email to do with my public comments and important facts about rent stabilization I gave at the Town Council meeting 6-27-23. Below the email are the actual words spoken at that meeting, for the sake of them being recorded.

Thanks.

Subject: IMPORTANT - Please reply - From Sara Chappelle -Rent Control Report Hi Dave -
Sara Chappelle here; you heard me speak at the Council meeting to do with rent stabilization.

I was unaware of the strictness of the 3-minute limit, and so did not have the time to make some important points.

I returned yesterday and spoke during "open time", but you were not present.

I know you have the laborious task of putting together a staff report or such by July on the subject, and it is important to me that some things, I hope, can be included.

1. Although this appeared on the screen, the backs of the Council members was to that screen, and you did not verbalize this important fact. The State rent control, The Tenant Protection Act of 2019, is set to expire in 6 1/2 years to NO State rent control. Important, because the prevailing idea is that we don't need it because we already have it. That law was never meant to be a permanent fix, as was stated by Governor Newsom at the time. It was a time-limited measure to stop the doubling, etc., of rents that was happening at the time. The hope was that Towns would enact their own rent controls, as we are trying to.

2. If so much affordable housing is desired, or more importantly, required, in San Anselmo, we tenants who are already in what is considered affordable units count as reaching that number; it need not be new move-ins.

3. One good thing in the Fairfax rent stabilization (not the separate controversial just-cause eviction) ordinance was that, if tenants are to pay for water, it is required that they be individually metered. This is specifically to avoid something called RUBS (Ratio Utility Billing System) utility billing, a shady practice which divides one meter, which can never be 7 equitable, between all tenants with no rules about how much management has to pay for outside water. For instance, it results in double-billing for the huge amount used by washers, which tenants have already paid for on a per-use basis, does not address outside leaks, etc., etc. Corporations are using this to tack onto rent, with added administration fees, etc, and thereby circumvent rent increase controls. This has been banned in several CA towns specifically because of this. I attach an article about that. Please, please do not leave this important item out of our staff report.
https://smdp.com/2018/08/30/court-declares-that-landlords-cant-circumvent-rent-limits-bycharging-extra-for-water/ To a person, the mom and pop landlords we've all heard have said they have no issue with the Fairfax 60% of CPI with a 5% cap rent limit, as they would not raise rents more than that anyway, or raise them yearly. So mom and pops would be unaffected by the limit; only the greedy (mostly corporate) would be impacted, allowing long-time SA residents to stay in their homes. So, nothing is lost for the mom and pops. It is the over-kill of the Fairfax just cause ordinance (which is actually being scaled back by the Fairfax Council) that is the problem, and while some just cause eviction ordinance is needed to enforce rent stabilization, San Anselmo's does not need to be anything like Fairfax's.

The 7% straight limit that Larkspur is considering is also unsustainable, yearly, very close to the State's 10% cap, so would not really be a help.

Again, this is not a future worry. It has already happened in my building, and I know of several long-time San Anselmo residents who have already been driven out by the Corporations who have bought SA buildings (even small, like mine) so this needs to happen with urgency.

Mr. Colbert seems to be completely unaware of this need, as he stated himself, while Mr.

Burdo says he has received 80 emails from renters.

As to racial diversity, my own 24-unit building, and I am sure other rentals, is at least 1/3 POC; 5 African-Americans, 8 Latino, 3 Asian, 4 LBGTQ, and several Jews, so the "people who look like" Mr. Colbert, as he put it, are already here, so also are being/will be be displaced by unreasonable yearly rent increases.

As to legislating this, everyone knows that, through history, minorities (even if that minority is renters) and the vulnerable have had to have their protections legislated. 1/3 of SA homes are rentals, 1/4 of SA residents are renters. We don't need buildings as big as Skylark in Larkspur or unending, time-consuming data to need/receive this protection.

This is not, as Ms. Burke implied,"subsidizing" anyone. Rent raises and profits are still wellallowed with rent stabilization, and most people like me make a smidge too much money to qualify for the helping programs she mentioned.

If this is not addressed, now, SA will become only the affluent and the very poor who do qualify for special programs, leaving the affluent able to feel their nobles oblige. Or people who bought/inherited long ago, and they will dwindle. But there will be no lowermiddle/working class, such as created the San Anselmo everyone is now enjoying. 8 As I have emailed you (about the gate) in the past at times without receiving a response, and as this is so important and time-sensitive to do with the report you are preparing, could you please respond as soon as possible to let me know you have received and read this email? I thank you very much -
Sara Chappelle
Hello. My name is Sara Chappelle and I am here to talk about rent control. I, by the way, come from a family of landlords, so I do not have only the tenants’ perspective. I work evenings and may not be able to attend special meetings.

About the idea that we already have State rent control, that is set to expire in 6 years. It is 5% plus inflation, which will be at or close to the 10% cap for a long time to come. Even if inflation somehow lowers to 2%, that is still 7% yearly, also unsustainable. We are asking for better, not extra, rent control.

If the town is required to have so many rental units be affordable, tenants already in naturally occurring affordable units count toward the town realizing the required number. It need not be new move-ins.

One good thing in the Fairfax ordinance was the requirement for individual metering if water is charged, to avoid shady utility billing which is used to circumvent rent control. So please don’t discard that or think it unimportant.

I hope those three facts will be in the Town Staff report.

To a person, no mom and pop landlord I’ve heard has a problem with the 60% of CPI with a 5% cap rent raise limit, as they say they don’t raise that much anyway, so it won’t affect them, only the greedy corporations.

Mr. Colbert mentioned that keeping tenants like me in my home may not make room for people who look like him to move in. While the lack of racial diversity in Marin truly pains me, two wrongs don’t make a right. You should 9 also know that in my 24-unit building right here on Sycamore, fully 1/3 are POC, 5 African-American, 8 Latino, 3 Asian, 3 LGBTQ and a smattering of Jews. So the people who look like him are already here and will also be displaced by these unreasonable rent raises.

Further, while rental income is a business, let’s not pretend it is a business like any other; it’s people’s homes.

As to whether this should be legislated, I think everyone knows that minorities and the vulnerable have often had to have their protections legislated by courageous legislators.

Ms. Burke suggested there are other nice places to live in the Country, but my 90-year old father and every face I have ever known don’t live there, Nor have I been a contributing community member in those places for 50 years.

I also make a smidge too much money to qualify for the helping programs she listed, as do most people in my position.

Rent stabilization does not subsidize anyone. It absolutely allows for rent raises and for profits.

The Fairfax just cause ordinance over-kill left a bad taste in people’s mouths, We need some just cause eviction control, but it does not have to be like theirs, nor do we need huge buildings like Skylark, and tons and tons of data.

It is simple. We need to address housing insecurity in San Anselmo, now, because it is happening now.

If it is not addressed, San Anselmo will be only the affluent and the very poor protected by programs that let the affluent feel their nobles oblige. But there 10 will be no working class, and that’s not inclusive.

STAFF REPORT
TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO Item #:1.2
MEETING DATE: June 27, 2023
AGENDA TITLE: Revenue and Expenditure Reports, May 2023 FROM: Jeff Zuba, Finance & Admin Services Director
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the monthly year-to-date Revenue and Expenditure Reports and corresponding activity for the period ending through May 31, 2023.

SUMMARY
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.

BACKGROUND
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.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The revenue and expenditure data through May 31, 2023, 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 of.

Revenues
Overall, through the May 2023 reporting period end, the Town’s General Fund revenue has increased its base relative to the prior year by $0.959M. This is primarily from the increase in property tax and license & permits offset by property transfer tax and 14 Item #: 1.2
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 overall revenue base increased by $0.959M, driven by Property Tax and Licenses & Permits.
 Property Taxes revenues through April have increased $0.770M compared to the prior period due to increased values on properties from the active real estate market during the Covid-19 pandemic. The Town receives disbursements from the County of Marin for property taxes in December, April, and June.  Sales Tax decreased by $0.026M due to consumer spending activity.  Property Transfer Tax decreased by $0.069M due to the slowing housing market from rising rates and low inventory. The Town expects to be under budget in this area at the end of the year.
 Franchise Taxes increased by $0.020M due to rate increases by the respective provider and/or consumer activity.
 License & Permits increased by $0.147M compared to the prior period due to continuing construction activity around the Town and the timing of collection for Business License Taxes.
 Intergovernmental increased by $0.85M compared to the prior period due to $0.66M grant reimbursement received for the Objective Design and Development Standards.
 Transfers In decreased by $0.035M compared to the prior period due to the Town issuing Pension Obligation Bonds in September 2021 to eliminate its unfunded liability with CalPERS. The previous year’s transfer in the amount included $0.081M from the Recreation Fund to pay its portion of the unfunded payment. In the current year, the transfer from the Recreation Fund was $0.026M. This amount represents the Recreation portion of savings that will be paid to the Pension Trust.

As far as the other revenue streams, these changes either decreased or remained relatively flat year-over-year resulting in an immaterial change.

Expenditures
Overall, through the May 2023 reporting period end, the Town’s General Fund expenditures have increased by $1.4M compared to the prior year. This is primarily from increases in compensation, outside services, debt service, and other expenditures. All Category MAY YTD FY23 MAY YTD FY22 $ Change % Change

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 expenditures base overall increased by $1.4M of which is driven by compensation, outside services, debt service, and other expenditures:
 Compensation (Salaries & Wages and Benefits) increased by $0.352M compared to the prior fiscal year primarily due to the 4.5% cost of living adjustment effective July 1, 2022, and one-time lump sum payment to employees in recognition of contributions during the Covid-19 pandemic.  Expenditures relating to CalPERS retirement decreased by $0.650M due to the Town’s required unfunded pension liability payment. The Town issued Pension Obligation Bonds in September 2021 to eliminate its unfunded liability with CalPERS at that point in time. The previous year’s liability payment was $0.665M. The offset for this decrease will be observed in the debt service category for the bond repayment.
 Outside Services increased by $0.967M compared to the previous fiscal year due to the changes in payments for Public Safety JPA’s, housing element, traffic circulation element, and construction project activity.  Debt Service increased by $0.377M compared to the previous fiscal year due to the repayment of the 2021 Pension Obligation Bonds noted above. The bond payments are due in August and February.
 Other Expenditures, Utilities, and Transfers Out increased by $0.422M compared to the previous fiscal year. Due to the change in accounting, utilities, other expenditures, and transfers must be together. In previous years funding for internal service funds was transferred out of the general fund. In fiscal year 22/23, the charge is recognized as an expense in the general fund and revenue in the internal service fund. The increase is due to the cost of insurance (property, liability, and workers’ compensation), and increased transfer amounts to road maintenance and climate action fund.

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.

TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO Item #: 1.3
MEETING DATE: June 27, 2023
AGENDA TITLE: Recreation Fund Revenue & Expenditure Report FROM: Dannielle Mauk, Community Services Director
RECOMMENDATION: That the Council approve the Recreation Fund Revenue and Expenditure Report for the period ending May 31, 2023.

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. The Recreation fund recoups its expenditures through class and program fees.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
As of May 31, 2023, 92% of the fiscal year has elapsed and the Recreation Fund is listed at 111% of projected revenues and 88% of projected expenditures.

In past years, we have transferred deferred revenue at the end of June for programs that occur after July 1, 2023. The revenue for these programs is collected during FY 2022/23. Our new Civic Rec software has automatically deferred these funds to FY 2023/24 revenue. This change is reflected in both the revenue/actual and rev over/under column for FY 2022/23.

Enrollment for recreation programs has increased. We had strong enrollment for our summer educational and sports programs. Families are enjoying our programs, and we are working on adding additional programs. The increase in program enrollment will be reflected in both the increased revenues and expenditures each month.

For historical comparison purposes, the staff has developed the following table.

FROM: Dannielle Mauk, Community Services Director
Vincent Lin, Recreation Coordinator II
RECOMMENDATION: That the Town Council adopt a resolution recognizing July 2023 as Parks Make Life Better Month.

BACKGROUND
Since 1985, local government agencies in the United States have celebrated Park and Recreation Month in July to promote building strong, vibrant, and resilient communities through the power of parks and recreation. It was established to raise awareness about the importance of parks, recreation programs, and open spaces in enhancing the physical, mental, and social well-being of individuals and communities.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Parks Make Life Better is a nationwide campaign to recognize the efforts of full-time, part-time, and seasonal employees of both the Recreation and Public Works employees who program and maintain community parks.

FISCAL IMPACT
This action has no fiscal impact.

TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO Item #: 1.5
MEETING DATE: June 27, 2023
AGENDA TITLE: Authorize Staff to Proceed with a Hybrid Scheduled meeting in the event Zoom or other means of
Teleconference Stop Functioning.

FROM: Administration
RECOMMENDATION: Staff Recommends to for all Agendas to have the following verbiage: “Please be advised those participating in the meeting remotely via Zoom do so at their own risk. The Town Council meeting will not be cancelled if any technical problems occur during the meeting”

BACKGROUND
On March 4, 2020, Governor Newsom declared a state of emergency pursuant to Government Code section 8625 due to COVID-19. Recognizing the need to promote social distancing while allowing local legislative bodies to continue operating during the emergency, Governor Newsom signed Executive Orders N-25-20, N-29-20, and N-08- 21, which suspended provisions of the Brown Act. Those Orders permitted legislative bodies to hold virtual meetings; however, the relevant provisions expired on September 30, 2021. On September 16, 2021, Governor Newsom signed AB 361, which extends the authority of public agencies to conduct meetings by teleconference, including video conference, during State-declared emergencies. Specifically, the bill provides that a legislative body may hold virtual meetings where there is a proclaimed state of emergency and state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing. (Cal. Gov. Code § 54953(e)(1)(A)). On February 28, 2023, Governor Newsom signed a proclamation terminating the State of Emergency for the State of California.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The Town of San Anselmo has been facilitating hybrid meetings in the Council Chambers, Conference Room and Historical Museum. Unfortunately, software and hardware is unpredictable and may fail before or during a scheduled meeting. 27 Item #: 1.5
There are topics that the Town must hear and make decisions at its scheduled meeting.

The Council Chambers are open to the public and all meetings are always posted within a 72 hour notice. Corte Madera has adopted such provision to continue their meetings even if the teleconference option fails. Adding a provision to the Town of San Anselmo agenda allows for meetings that advertised as hybrid to continue without teleconference option permitting to maintain Town Council’s normal course of business.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no Fiscal Impact by approving this item.

CEQA AND CLIMATE ACTION PLAN CONSISTENCY
Adopting a resolution to establish the format for public meetings during a state of emergency is not a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), because it does not involve an activity that has the potential to cause a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. (Cal. Pub. Res.

Code § 21065).

FISCAL YEAR 2023-2024

DEPARTMENT
35 6 Town of San Anselmo: Budget and Work Plan 2023-2024 TOWN MANAGER’S MESSAGE
Fiscal Summary And Economic Outlook
First, I want to place this budget in the historical context of our times. As we navigate the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, many of its major impacts on society continue – the exodus of workers combined with a shortage of replacement workers, disruption of the global supply chain, continuing inflation, rising gas and electricity costs, and now several banking failures in the beginning of 2023 (in the USA and Europe), as well as the upcoming 2024 Presidential Election. Adding to the already precarious circumstances within the United States, a series of high profile international events expands the possibilities for prolonged economic instability -- the second year of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the looming fear that China may take Taiwan, which produces the overwhelming majority of the world’s semiconductors, the French President’s comments in April suggesting that Europe should no longer follow America’s lead, and the ability for OPEC+ to drastically increase oil prices overnight. Such waves on the international scale can produce significant ripple effects on local communities, including ours. Although San Anselmo may not be as directly affected by these external pressures as are larger cities, our local government does play an important role in providing and maintaining a positive and enriching quality of life along with keeping the community safe and providing social and economic well-being.

With that said, San Anselmo continues to make progress in many areas. The passage of the Library Parcel Tax (Measure H) at nearly 85% of the vote and the passage of the Measure J Sales Tax at nearly 75% of the vote are clear indications that residents are supportive of the Town’s direction.

A Vision For Our Community
Planning staff has been busy working towards achieving certification of the Town’s Housing Element, along with the completion of the Safety and Circulation Elements. Staff continues to develop local Objective Design Development Standards (ODDS) and recently passed an Inclusionary Housing Ordinance which allows for support for affordable housing. Additional zoning changes will be considered in conjunction with the Housing Element discussions, and staff will begin the process of updating the Town’s General Plan in FY 2023-24. The last comprehensive General Plan update was completed in 1988.

Climate Resiliency
Meeting goals to combat climate change continue to be a high priority in San Anselmo. Recent efforts such as passing an ordinance banning the use of gas-powered landscape equipment, the transition from a local to a countywide ordinance banning single use plastics, the reduction in water use through conservation and efficiency upgrades, and the investment in electric vehicle infrastructure and electric vehicle fleet conversion and the approval the Town’s Resilient Hub with will provide solar energy and back-up batteries at Town Hall.

The Town, with direct support through its Climate staff and Climate Action Committee, continues to prioritize projects that will move the Town towards further sustainability and resilience through achieving the goals of the Town’s Climate Action Plan.
36 Town of San Anselmo: Budget and Work Plan 2023-2024 7 TOWN MANAGER’S MESSAGE
Work Plan Priorities
The proposed fiscal year 2023-24 budget was developed based on the continuing objective of providing high-quality services to our community in an effective, efficient, and financially responsible manner. The approved FY 2023-24 Work Plan Priorities can be found in each department’s budget section. These goals provide a roadmap for departmental work during the fiscal year and beyond.

The fiscal year 2023-24 Proposed Budget and Work Plan reflects a balancing strategy that has prioritized essential services, continues to proactively fund long-term obligations, and maintains investments in the Town’s most critical infrastructure.

Roads, Infrastructure and Drainage
Since 2013, when Measure D was passed by residents increasing funding for infrastructure improvements, the annual work plan for road, drainage and other infrastructure repairs has been greatly enhanced. Additional transportation funding has become available due the passage of Senate Bill 1 (SB 1).

Measure J replaced Measure D as of April of 2023 and provides additional funding for an expanded list of funding needs including roads, buildings, parks, enhanced fire protection and climate resiliency. 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan
In August of 2019, the Town Council approved a new 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). This plan was reviewed the Capital Program Monitoring Committee and the Planning Commission before coming to the Town Council. Many of the priorities in the previous CIP are the same for the current Draft 5-Year CIP, however, due to the dynamic state of the budget, funds becoming available from sources such as Measure AA and SB1, and the periodic need to refresh the CIP, staff has updated the plan to reflect the current funding conditions.

Transportation funding in the CIP budget have typically been used for road maintenance projects.

With the passage of Measure J, additional funds have been allocated for “active transportation” projects, which include bicycle and pedestrian improvements. The Town Council is currently working on guidelines clearly defining the types of projects that qualify as active transportation projects.

Aging Town Facilities
The Town’s community parks and buildings are aging and many are in need of repair or replacement. These facilities include Memorial Park, the Robson Harrington Park and House, the Isabel Cook Community Center, Fire Stations #19 and #20, Town Hall and Creek Park. With the allocation of the Town’s American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds and the passage of Measure J, the Town has additional funding to begin to address these needs. 37 8 Town of San Anselmo: Budget and Work Plan 2023-2024 TOWN MANAGER’S MESSAGE
Plans are in place and funding has been allocated for the first two-year cycle of this work with projects including the rehabilitation of Fire Station #20, the replacement of the roof and HVAC at Town Hall, the renovation of the interior of Town Hall, the improvement of both the exterior and interior of the Robson House including ADA upgrades, the renovation of the Carriage House and lower lawn areas at Robson Park, and the exterior repair and repainting of the Isabel Cook Community Center.

Flood Mitigation
The San Anselmo Flood Risk Reduction Project (SAFRR) is part of the Marin County Flood District’s 10-Year work plan to mitigate the 25-year flood event in the Ross Valley. The Project consists of three distinct phases: (1) the Sunnyside Nursery Flood Diversion and Storage Basin at 3000 Sir Francis Drake Boulevard in Fairfax; (2) the removal of buildings at 632-634 San Anselmo Ave in San Anselmo (BB2), a structure that partially obstructs the flow of San Anselmo Creek and related creek restoration; and (3) flood mitigation measures on designated downstream private properties that may see a rise in water surface due to the removal of BB2 in San Anselmo.

As of today, phases two and three have not been implemented.

Pension Obligations
In January of 2021, the Council approved the Town’s participation to refinance its unfunded pension liability for the Town’s Safety and Police Plan through the issuance of bonds by the Central Marin Police Authority. The combination of projected total interest savings over the current CalPERS amortization period of 25 years is $11.9 million, or approximately $534,000 per year. The Town would benefit from this savings as a member of the JPA.

After the January meeting, Town staff met with Wulff Hansen & Co., a financial advisor, to discuss potentially refinancing the Town’s pension obligation debt with the California Public Employee Retirement System (CalPERS) for Town’s miscellaneous plan. Wulff Hansen Co.’s analysis shows that the Town has an opportunity to achieve interest savings in the estimated amount of $3.4 million by issuing pension obligation bonds. At the Financial Advisory Committee meeting held on April 15, 2021, the Committee received the presentation given by Wulff, Hansen & Co. and voted unanimously to recommend that this action be brought to the full Town Council for consideration.

At the April 27, 2021 meeting, Staff brought the item forward for Council’s consideration. Town Council voted unanimously to authorize staff to proceed with the project. In September of 2021 the Town issued bonds covering the pension obligations. The favorable bond rates at that time help the Town save over $170,000 per year in pension debt payments.

Grants
The proposed budget reflects a number of grants, some new and some awarded in earlier years.

Grants are accounted for in the Grant Fund and the majority require no matching funds on the part of the Town. Actual budgeted expenditures for FY 2023-24 are, in many cases, less than the total amount of the grant as the projects are multi-year. Details and figures for these grants are available in the Grant Fund pages of the budget document.
38 Town of San Anselmo: Budget and Work Plan 2023-2024 9 TOWN MANAGER’S MESSAGE
Budget Format
The operations of the Town are budgeted primarily in the Town’s General Fund. Significant maintenance projects and other capital improvements are contained in the Capital Reconstruction Fund.

Road and drainage improvement projects are funded through the Road Maintenance Fund and grants in the Grants Fund. The Recreation Fund accounts for most of the revenue and expenditures related to recreation programs. The Library Tax Fund tracks expenditures related to the special Library services tax. The Measure J Sales Tax Fund tracks activity related to capital projects funded through the use of those funds. A list of all the Town funds, a description of their functions, and a summary of revenue and expenses are contained in the Overview of Funds section at the beginning of the budget document.

Conclusion
The proposed FY 2023-24 budget represents a prudent financial plan that addresses the Town’s pressing capital and equipment needs while maintaining a staffing structure that strives to meet the needs of its citizens while allocating one-time monies to important community projects and priorities. The Town’s staff remains committed to providing excellent community services to the residents of San Anselmo while operating within the boundaries of the adopted budget each year.

Acknowledgements
The development of the Town’s annual budget and work plan, especially in these uncertain times, requires teamwork, foresight, experience, and leadership. From top to bottom, the leadership and dedication from within each Town department is reflected within this document.

In the fall of 2021, the Town appointed a new Finance and Administrative Services Director, Jeff Zuba. Jeff has brought to the town a strong background in managing local government finances and has put his own stamp of excellence on the operations of the Finance and Administrative Services Department from day one. The Town’s team, led by Jeff, submit a proposed budget following the Town’s strict standards, which reflect a careful balancing of accountability and progress with the overarching policy of ‘living within our means’.

Respectfully submitted,

OVERVIEW OF REVENUES & EXPENDITURES
Understanding municipal finance takes a lot of effort and willingness to read and interpret a large volume and wide variety of information. The Town strives to make all communications, including financial information, as approachable and understandable as possible.

In this section, we are presenting information about how the Town receives its funding and how it gets spent. We are also presenting it in a new format that has been developed to lay out the basic structures of the income and outflow of tax dollars and other funds the Town receives and spends.

The Town of San Anselmo receives funding to operate through a variety of sources. Many are well-known, such as property tax and sales tax. These two sources make up the majority of Town funding. As you will see in this budget document, the Town’s operations are accounted for in the General Fund.

GENERAL FUND REVENUE

PROPERTY AND OTHER TAXES
• Property Tax: Property tax is the primary source of revenue for the Town of San Anselmo. The basic property tax is 1 percent of assessed valuation, of which the Town receives less than one quarter. In 2023-2024, the assessed valuation of San Anselmo properties is expected to increase more than 4.0%, an indication that property sales remain strong. • Secured: The Town’s share of 1 percent on the Town’s assessed valuation is billed by the County of Marin. A property assessment may not exceed a 2 percent increase in any year unless the property has been sold or improvements have been constructed. • Unitary: State collected and distributed tax on utility-owned properties. In Marin County, PG&E property accounts for approximately 25% of unitary tax collections. • Unsecured: Tax on property such as business office equipment and possessory interest tax. • Supplemental: Taxes assessed on property sales and new construction outside the regular tax bills.
• Homeowners Exemption (HOPTR): Reimbursement for the property tax lost on the $7,000 homeowners’ property tax exemption.
• Pension Override Tax: The Town’s pension tax is used to pay for the cost of the employee pension program. The rate is $0.059 per $100 of a property’s assessed value. • Municipal Service Tax: The Town’s Municipal Services Tax is used to pay for general Town services. It is assessed annually at $78 per residential living unit or 5.2 cents per square foot for commercial space.
• ERAF Property Tax: Beginning in the 1992-93 fiscal year, the State of California diverted property taxes from local governments to boost revenues to the State. The fund to which these local revenues are being diverted is called “ERAF,” Educational Revenue Augmentation Funds.

In Marin County, the ERAF formula allows the local governments to keep a portion of the diverted property taxes, or ERAF taxes.
44 Town of San Anselmo: Budget and Work Plan 2023-2024 15

OVERVIEW OF REVENUES & EXPENDITURES
• Property Tax in Lieu of Motor Vehicle License Fees: The vehicle license fee (VLF), also called the motor vehicle in-lieu tax, is a tax on the ownership of a registered vehicle in place of taxing vehicles as personal property.

OTHER TAXES
• Sales Tax: The Town receives 1 percent of the 9.25 percent in sales tax on retail sales transactions taking place in the Town. San Anselmo has relatively low sales tax revenue compared to its neighboring cities due to its physical location away from the freeway. • Property Transfer: The Town and County of Marin each receive $.55 per $1,000 of the sales price of property sold in San Anselmo.

FRANCHISES
• Garbage: The Town receives 11% of the revenues of the garbage service. • Cable TV: The Town receives 5% of the revenues received by the cable companies, Comcast and AT&T, from San Anselmo subscribers. Legislation has held that high speed internet access fees collected by the cable company are not subject to the franchise fee. • Electricity & Gas: The Town receives 0.5 % of electrical service revenue and 1% of the gas service revenue in San Anselmo.

PERMITS AND LICENSES
• Business License Tax: Each business activity in San Anselmo is required to have a business license. Most license fees are based on the gross receipts of the business. The minimum license fee for most businesses is $15. A business license administrative fee is no longer being charged. • Construction: Building, electrical, plumbing, heat/air/mechanical permits, and plan check fees.

Revenues have steadily increased over the past few years due to strong building activity and turnover in real estate.

FINES
• Vehicle Code: The Town, County, and State each receive a share of the fines collected for vehicle code citations issued in San Anselmo. The State and County are the first to collect their share on the fines imposed by the courts.
• Parking: The Town’s share of fines collected on parking citations issued in San Anselmo.

USE OF MONEY & PROPERTY
• Interest: The Town invests its idle funds with the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) managed by the State Treasurer. The General Fund receives interest on all funds, with the exception of interest that accrues to the Measure G Debt Service Funds. Measure A Parks Tax Fund and Measure G Projects Fund; those funds accrue their own interest. 45 16 Town of San Anselmo: Budget and Work Plan 2023-2024 OVERVIEW OF REVENUES & EXPENDITURES GENERAL FUND

STATE REVENUE
• Proposition 172 Sales Tax: Allocation of 0.5 percent of sales tax approved by California voters to fund public safety costs.
• Abandoned Vehicle Program: Cities and towns are eligible to receive reimbursement for their costs in enforcing State abandoned vehicle laws. This revenue is turned over to Central Marin Police Authority.
• Motor Vehicle License Fee: The California Department of Motor Vehicles collects a property tax on the depreciated value of motor vehicles, and the State distributes the funds to local governments on a per capita basis.
• State Mandated Reimbursement: Legislation known as SB 90 previously required the State to reimburse local governments for the cost of implementing state mandates, such as domestic violence calls and Open Meeting Act laws. No reimbursement is expected this year from the State.

FEES FOR SERVICE
• General Plan Maintenance Fee: Fees collected from Planning applicants for General Plan maintenance.
• Resale Inspections: Town code requires an inspection by the Building Inspector at the time a residential property is sold, to identify health and safety hazards needing correction. • Planning Fees: Cost recovery for labor to process planning permit applications, such as variances, use permits, design review, and subdivisions.

MISCELLANEOUS
• Donations: Donations from community groups or residents. • Other: Miscellaneous Town revenues, such as copy machine revenue, reimbursement of water costs by the Robson Community Garden, donations by Friends of the Library, etc.

TRANSFERS IN
• From State Gasoline Tax Fund: Municipalities receive a share of State gas tax revenues, distributed on a per capita basis, for costs associated with street maintenance. This revenue is received into the Gas Tax Fund, a special revenue fund. Transfers are made to the General Fund to support street maintenance activities as appropriate. • From Recreation Fund: Recreation Fund transfers its share of annual unfunded pension liability payment to General Fund.

GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES

LABOR COSTS
• Salaries: Salaries and salary-related costs are the largest single expenditure for the Town, approximately 78% of the Town’s expenditures, including Fire and Police Department contract cost.
• Final Salary/Leave Buyout: Employees may opt to cash out one week of vacation per year.

Upon separation from the Town, an employee’s accrued vacation time payout costs and any other moneys due are paid from this category.
• Health Benefits: The Town currently has a cafeteria benefits plan that pays the equivalent of family Kaiser, dental, vision, a small life insurance policy for each employee and long-term disability premium currently in the amount of approximately $2,523 per month. Any unused portion of the 2023-24 cafeteria benefits plan is given to employees as “cashback” up to a cap of $365 per month. The cashback program offers flexibility to employees in their choices for health coverage. Employees hired after July 1, 2014 have their medical benefit limited to a maximum of $2,000 per month with no cashback option.
• Retirement: The Town is a member of the Public Employees Retirement System (PERS). The various plans are described in terms of a percentage of annual salary at a certain retirement age. For example, the 2% @ 55 plan allows an employee to retire at age 55 with 2% of his/her annual salary for each year of service. The Town had one retirement plan for Miscellaneous employees (2.7%@55) until February 2007, when a second-tier retirement plan (2%@55) was enacted in order to reduce retirement costs. The current configuration of retirement plans and their rates (expressed as a percentage of payroll) is:

Group Tier 1 2023-24
Rate
2022-23
Rate
Tier 2 (eff.
2/07)
2023-24

Rate PEPRA
Miscellaneous 2.7%@55 15.95% 14.03% 2%@55 12.47% 10.87% 7.68% Currently, part of the pension rate is expressed as a percentage of monthly salary. Employees pay the employee share, which is 8% for Miscellaneous in Tier 1 and 7% for Tier 2.

In 2012-13 the Town’s PERS rate was reduced to reflect the sale of Pension Obligation Bonds to pay the Town’s Employer Side Fund liability of $3,521,184. In 2003, CalPERS combined agencies with less than 100 members into risk pools based on plan type. The Employer Side Fund was created to account for the difference between the funded status of the pool and the funded status of individual plans. The repayment of the Pension Obligation Bonds is reflected in the Expenditure Summary under General Fund Departments, Debt Service (Pension Obligation Bonds). Overall, the refinancing of the side fund is saving the Town approximately $60,000 per year.

In January 2013 the State Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act (PEPRA) went into effect. Any person who becomes a new member of the retirement system on or after January 1, 2013 may only be offered the new pension benefit plan specified in the Reform Act. All non-safety new hires are subject to a formula providing 2% of compensation for each year of service for an individual retiring at age 62, increasing to 2.5% for an individual retiring at age 67. PEPRA employees must pay 50% of the cost of the pension, currently 7.75%.
50 Town of San Anselmo: Budget and Work Plan 2023-2024 21

OVERVIEW OF REVENUES & EXPENDITURES
In May 2014, the CalPERS Board adopted changes to the existing pooling structure policies and a new policy for allocating the pools’ unfunded accrued liability, effective for the 2015-16 employer contribution rates. Due to unintended consequences resulting from the PEPRA changes and existing PERS policies on risk pools, changes were necessary to ensure the proper funding of the pools. In order to address the problem, CalPERS combined twelve risk pools into two, one for Safety and one for Miscellaneous. Employer contributions toward the unfunded liability for plans in a risk pool are collected as dollar amounts instead of contribution rates expressed as a percentage of payroll for an estimated 30 years.

In September 2021, the Town issued Pension Obligation Bonds to pay the Town’s Employer side unfunded liability of $9,070,378. Due to the favorable interest rate environment at the time of issuance the projected savings over the life of the bond is estimated to be $5,351,965. The savings between the CALPERS amortization schedule and bond repayment schedule will be paid to the Pension Trust each year to alleviate any future unfunded liability concerns. For the Town, year 2 savings estimated to be paid to the Pension Trust is $244,000.

With the consolidation of Police services into the Central Marin Police Authority and Fire services into the Ross Valley Fire Department, the Safety pension costs are included in their respective budgets.
• Payroll Taxes: The Town participates in Social Security at a rate of 6.2% of total salary up to a limit of $167,700 in 2024 and in Medicare at a rate of 1.45% of total salary without limit. • Overtime/Temporary: Costs associated with overtime pay and temporary help.

SERVICES AND SUPPLIES

• Vehicle Operations: Preventive and repair maintenance for the Town fleet of cars, trucks and motorcycles.
• Equipment Maintenance: Town equipment, including office equipment, copy machines, postage machine, fax, mowers.
• Publications & Dues: Professional and technical publications and membership dues in professional organizations.
• Outside Services: Outside audits, technical consulting assistance, Joint Powers Agreements for county wide services and parking meter collection.
• Training: Workshops, seminars and conference to keep staff current. • Internal Service Charge – Building Maintenance: Janitorial, heating and air conditioning and minor repairs.

PUBLIC SAFETY – POLICE
On January 1, 2013, the San Anselmo Police Department joined the Twin Cities Police Authority, which included the City of Larkspur and the Town of Corte Madera. The new authority was named the Central Marin Police Authority. The Authority is administered under a joint powers authority to provide police services to San Anselmo, Corte Madera and Larkspur. The agency is governed by the Police Council, comprised of two members from each of the City/Town Councils of San Anselmo, Corte Madera and Larkspur.

An annual budget is adopted by the Central Marin Police Authority Council and funded through assessments to the three members. The costs for administration, communications, and investigations are shared on an equal basis with each member paying one-third. The costs for Community Service Officers are shared on an equal basis between the Town of San Anselmo and the City of Larkspur, since they are the only jurisdictions using them. The costs for field operations, juvenile/ school resource officer, and traffic are allocated according to a funding formula based upon the number of calls for service, total crimes, citations and accidents on a rolling three-year period. This method of cost allocation ensures that if one member has additional patrol field needs, the costs are fairly allocated to the town/city receiving the services.

The percentages of the Police Authority budget for the three members are: San Anselmo 38.43%, Larkspur 33.71% and Corte Madera 27.86%.

DEBT SERVICE
In 2012-13 the Town’s PERS rate was reduced to reflect the sale of Pension Obligation Bonds to pay the Town’s Employer Side Fund liability of $3,521,183.91.

In 2003, CalPERS combined agencies with less than 100 members into risk pools based on plan type. The Employer Side Fund was created to account for the difference between the funded status of the pool and the funded status of individual plans.

The repayment of the Pension Obligation Bonds is reflected in the Expenditure Summary under General Fund Departments, Debt Service (Pension Obligation Bonds). Overall, the refinancing of the side fund is saving the Town approximately $60,000 per year and $600,000 over the ten-year term. The Bonds matured in fiscal year 2021-22.

The Town issued Pension Obligation Bonds to pay the employer side unfunded liability in September 2021. The first-year payment is reflected in the 2022-2023 budget. Overall, the issuance of the bonds is savings the Town approximately, $246,000 in year 1 and over $5 million over the life of the bonds.

NON-DEPARTMENTAL SERVICES
This budget program represents services, participation in joint powers authorities (JPA’s), and other expenditures that represent the Town’s interest and are not attributable to a single department or program.

The Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) has changed the way public entities are charged for pension costs to better reflect actual costs and to reduce unfunded liabilities. As such, members are now charged a flat fee in addition to a percentage of salary. The Town issued Pension Obligation Bonds in 2021 to pay the unfunded liability amount. The amount recognized in retirement for the FY2022-2023 is the savings between CALPERS amortization scheduled and bond repayment schedule that will be deposited into the Pension Trust for any future unfunded liability. The difference of $246,689 is reflected in Non-Departmental Services, under Retirement for FY2022-2023.

The Town participates in several Joint Powers Authority (JPA) agencies county-wide, and the costs for participation are budgeted under Outside Services.

The San Anselmo Volunteer Effort has generously agreed to fund an annual Volunteer Appreciation recognition and an annual Volunteer of the Year award.

EMERGENCY RESERVE FUND
The Emergency Reserve Fund serves as a safety valve for unanticipated emergency needs. Prior to 2003-04, the Town’s policy was to maintain a fund balance of $100,000 to ensure adequate cash flow in anticipation of emergency projects, disasters, or other unprogrammed demands. In 2003-04, $50,000 of this fund was transferred to the General Fund.

The fund was established for use during winter storms to respond to hazards on public and private property. Costs associated with private property are charged to the property owner, for reimbursement. When costs are incurred during emergencies that are declared to be federal and/ or state disasters and are eligible for disaster assistance, a reimbursement claim is filed and funds that are received are returned to the Emergency Projects Fund.

The fund has been used to record the Town’s expenses incurred in conjunction with the flood that occurred on December 31, 2005, and the April 2006 damage on Allyn Avenue. As of June 30, 2014, the Town spent a total of $7.6 million in recovery costs and related improvements for the two emergency events and has received reimbursement from FEMA, OES, and flood insurance for $4.7 million. Of the remaining $2.9 million costs, the Town has funded $1.7 million of fire station reconstruction with a municipal loan, leaving an unreimbursed balance of $1.2 million that was absorbed by the General Fund. Construction costs for the firehouse remodel exceeded the $1.7 million construction loan. The Town has transferred $1.7 million in General Fund money into the Emergency Projects fund since 2005 to cover unreimbursed flood-related expenses. The Town returned $21,729 in reimbursements to FEMA and OES that were subsequently disallowed.

The Town has been audited with respect to the reimbursements from FEMA and OES by the Office of the Inspector General for the flood expenses. The result of that report was a finding that the Town’s expenditures were generally within the guidelines set by the federal and state government.

When costs are incurred by the Town but are not eligible for reimbursement by property owners or other agencies, the annual carryover and/or a transfer from the General Fund is recommended to replenish the fund for future needs.

On March 16, 2020, Town Manager issued a Proclamation of the Existence of a Local Emergency Related to COVID-19. The Town has been recording all the expenditures that are related to COVID-19 responses to a COVID-19 project and will submit for all qualified reimbursements to state and federal agencies.

The Town received $157,512 Coronavirus Relief Fund direct allocation of CARES Act funding from the State to reimburse the costs incurred due to the COVID-19 pandemic during the fiscal year 2020-21.

On March 11, 2021, President Biden signed the American Rescue Plan Act which provided funding to state and local governments to facilitate recovery from the economic and public health effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The Town is expected to receive $2.984 million. The deadline to spend the funding is December 31, 2026 as long as the funds are obligated by December 31, 2024. 109

DOWNTOWN REVITALIZATION FUND
As a community of residents, business owners, and commercial property owners, enlisting the cooperation of the Town of San Anselmo, we endeavor to identify and define our downtown as a desirable destination, encourage businesses to meet the needs of our community and create a favorable center of increased social interaction and business.

Downtown Revitalization Strategy Mission Statement
In 1994, residents, businesspeople, and Town officials began to create a strategy for enhancing the appearance and vitality of downtown San Anselmo. The Town hired Urban Planning Consultant Michael Freedman to lead community workshops, which resulted in the adoption of the above mission statement, and a strategy and priorities for improving the downtown. Landscape architect George Girvin was hired by the Town to create a streetscape conceptual design, which was approved by the Council in September 1996.

The design plan consists of adding trees, old-fashioned streetlights, outside furniture such as benches, a plaza seating area, signs, and other improvements to the downtown. In May, 1997, the Town hired Greenwood & Associates to perform a study on the feasibility of raising the funds to build these downtown improvements.

In February 1998, the Town Council adopted a downtown revitalization plan to bring $300,000 of streetscape improvements to the downtown. The Council authorized hiring George Girvin to design the improvements and coordinate the design with the undergrounding of utilities and Measure G street repaving project.

In 1999-00, a fundraising campaign was conducted to raise $300,000 for the streetscape project; the total results of the fundraising campaign, including interest revenue, were $341,000.

The Downtown Revitalization Fund accounts for the revenues and expenses related to the Downtown Revitalization improvement project.

In Spring, 1999, beating out stiff competition, San Anselmo was awarded a $226,000 grant from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission’s Livable Communities program to construct entry signs to San Anselmo and improvements to the Hub station bus shelters. A local match of 11%, or $22,000 was required and these improvements were completed in conjunction with the San Anselmo 2000 Streetscape Improvements.

With the completion of the downtown paving, tree planting, bench placement, electrical conduit placement, sidewalk grates and the majority of the Town Hall Plaza work, the main project is completed. Benches continue to be placed as donors indicate a desire for a memorial bench. Still to be completed is the tree lighting. Funding is utilized for downtown tree replacement, flower baskets, and other miscellaneous services.

• Bridge Preventative Maintenance Program – Funds were granted by the State for preventative maintenance in the total amount of approximately $1.2 million on three bridges consisting of Center Boulevard Bridge at Lansdale, Sir Francis Drake Bridge at Tunstead, and Barber Avenue Bridge. This funding is for bridges that do not need to be replaced but that need preventative maintenance).
• Center Boulevard and Bridge Avenue Bridges – Federal Highway Bridge Program funding for the replacement of bridges over San Anselmo Creek at Center Boulevard and Bridge Avenue.

There is a required match for this bridge grant of 11.5% that was initially anticipated to be covered by the County of Marin Flood Zone 9 Flood Fee but is now covered in the Town budget.

Initial funding has been approved for conceptual design. Subsequent funds will be available for design and construction phases of the project. Funding for the entire project has been allocated by CalTrans but construction has not been authorized. Funding for the conceptual design, final design and environmental process is approximately $1,969,000 and will be authorized upon approval of the conceptual design. Due to delays with funding, this fiscal year’s funding is expected to be minimal so only $5,000 total for each of the Bridge has been set aside from the local match in the coming year. We are anticipating the local match of $35,000 for each bridge from prior year will be rollover into the new fiscal year. The remainder of the grant will be spent in subsequent years as the project progresses.
• Madrone Avenue Bridge – Federal Highway Bridge Program funding to rebuild the bridge over San Anselmo Creek at Madrone Avenue. Total grant for design is $1,267,875, with approximately $843,000 is scheduled to be expended this year ($843,680 from the grant and $96,700 local match). The required local match of 11.5% was being covered by the County of Marin Flood Zone 9 Flood Fee but now is incorporated into the Town budget. The remainder of the grant will be spent in subsequent years as the project progresses. Funding for the entire project was delayed but it appears that funding has been authorized by CalTrans to continue. 117

• Nokomis Avenue – Federal Highway Bridge Program funding to rebuild the bridge over San Anselmo Creek at Nokomis Avenue. The estimated design dollars for this year is $50,000. There is no required local match for this bridge grant. The remainder of the grant will be spent in subsequent years as the project progresses. Funding for the entire project was delayed along with bridges throughout California due to funding issues but it appears that funding has been authorized by CalTrans to continue.
• Cal Recycle recycling grant has awarded the Town a $5,000 grant used to purchase and replace public recycling containers as well as clean up litter in parks, recreation areas, and roadways. The goal of CalRecycle’s beverage container recycling program is to reach and maintain an 80 percent recycling rate for all California refund value beverage containers. • 2023 Street Paving Project – The Transportation Authority of Marin (TAM) has awarded Measure AA funding to the Town in the amount of $305,000 for FY2023-24. This money will be used to partially fund the 2023 Street Paving project.

RECREATION FUND
The Recreation Department is responsible for developing and administering programs and services that enrich lives and help meet social, recreational, leisure and cultural needs of youth, families, and older adults through direct and contract programs.

Town residents and the greater Ross Valley community are provided with a variety of sports, leisure, arts and recreational activities and classes for all ages and abilities throughout the year.

Program highlights include sports programs, gymnastics, afterschool care, afterschool enrichment and toddler enrichment classes. Summer day camps, specialty camps, and sports camps fill an important need in the Ross Valley for quality, affordable summer programming for children. The Parkside Preschool program has been serving preschool-aged children (and their parents) for over 45 years.

The Department provides staff support to our senior community. We work with the Ross Valley Seniors program and our Age-friendly Committee offers recreational, social, educational programming and outreach to seniors.

We provide staff support to the Parks and Recreation Commission and Arts Commission.

The Department also provides staff support to the Dog Park, Skate Park, Robson-Harrington Community Gardens and Age-friendly committees.

We fundraise for and produce several community events, including, Live on the Avenue (in partnership with several Town departments), Goblins Parade, Breakfast with Santa, Tree Lighting, Egg Hunts, Skate Fest (2) and Corn Hole Tournaments (2).

The Recreation Fund is self-supporting except for general administrative functions such as payroll, finance, legal, maintenance and the Community Services Director’s and the Administrative Services Assistant’s compensation. Internet services and some maintenance functions are provided through the General Fund contribution to the Recreation Department. The Recreation Fund recoups its expenditures through class and program fees, as well as associated revenues such as advertising sales and rental/reservations income. 121

RECREATION FUND
2022-23 ACCOMPLISHMENTS
• The Recreation Department increased enrollment during FY 2022-23. We were able to serve more members of the community by maximizing enrollment and adding additional programming.
• The Skate Park continues to be popular. In San Anselmo there are kids both young and well into their teens who use our facility. The Department produced two Skate Fest events. • Updated the Recreation Department Software Platform to Civic Rec. • Updated Resolution #4455 redefining the framework for the Arts Commission, giving them steps and parameters for approving public art (not including murals). • Made improvements to programming areas at the Robson Harrington House. Repainted the interior of the downstairs, removing all lead paint and painted the porch. Added new window covering to the downstairs program areas. These improvements were funded by the Recreation Fund.
• Established by-laws and rules for the Robson Harrington Community Garden and created a committee for the garden to manage day-to-day operations. • Expanded department programming to include music and voice lessons. • Grew our CIT (Counselor-in-Training program) to include 40 students ranging in age from 13-15.

This is a job training program where students apply, go through an interview, training & orientation, then volunteer alongside paid camp staff. This is a great experience for teens. • The Recreation Department added new toddler enrichment programs that allowed young children and their families to explore our local parks and create community through play. • Parkside Preschool added a pre-k group that works with our lead teacher daily to prepare kids or TK/Kindergarten.
• Offered soccer league (800 kids), basketball league (400 Kids) and baseball & softball leagues (300 kids).
• Developed an action plan for the Parks and Recreation Commission. • Produced San Anselmo Live in partnership with multiple Town departments, Goblins Parade, Tree Lighting, Egg Hunts, and Corn Hole Tournaments.
2022-23 CHANGES/HIGHLIGHTS
The Recreation Department saw a significant increase in participation levels in existing activities.

Our in-house programs sold out quickly and most have wait lists. Our basketball and softball sports programs grew from previous years because they offered children the opportunity to get outside, be active and socialize.

COMMUNITY SERVICES MASTER PLAN FUND
The Community Services Master Plan Fund was initiated in 2014-15 to reflect the revenue and expenditures associated with the Community Facilities Master Planning process. This fund is intended to be used for master planning projects related to Town parks and recreation activities and facilities.

The project was initially funded by a $50,000 grant from Marin County Supervisor Katie Rice and a transfer of $60,000 from the Recreation Fund.

During the Community Facilities Master Plan process, community input was collected from a variety of community members to help develop ideas for the Town’s community facilities. A Master Plan was adopted by the Council at the end of the process, and work will continue toward the goal of carrying out the goals of the Master Plan.

At the completion of the Community Facilities Master Plan, funding was set aside to explore capital funding options.

In 2018-19, the Town Council allocated $30,000 from the General Fund reserve balance for use in a public information program to increase awareness about the Memorial Park Restoration Project. 131

ROAD MAINTENANCE FUND
With the adoption of the 2002-03 budget, the Town Council formally recognized its commitment to the ongoing need
for road maintenance beyond the resources provided by
the Measure G bond funds. To provide additional funds
for road maintenance, the Town Council directed staff to budget $400,000 in this fund annually. A Road Impact Fee for construction to be charged on construction projects was approved and collection of that fee began in December 2002.

The road impact fee was extended to garbage vehicles in December 2004. Revenue received from the Road Impact
Fee and the Garbage Impact Fee is restricted to the Road Maintenance Fund.

In FY 2023-24, Road Impact fees for construction are estimated at $375,000 and for garbage trucks at $84,000. A General Fund contribution of $450,000 to the fund is included to reflect the Town’s continued commitment to road maintenance. This fund also includes Senate Bill 1 (SB) gas tax at approximately $315,000.

A new 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) was prepared by staff in 2019 based on the pavement management program report that outlines the pavement condition index (PCI) of Town streets. It was reviewed and recommended to the Town Council by the Capital Program Monitoring Committee. It was also reviewed by the Planning Commission for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act and conformance with the Town’s General Plan. The 5 Year CIP was approved by Town Council in 2019.

The Plan calls for the following projects to be completed in 2023-24:

Project Cost $
Salary/Benefits for Engineers (1.5 FTE) 227,091
CMP Replacment 45,000
Misc Intersection Striping 10,000

SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS

STATE GASOLINE TAX FUND
California municipalities receive a portion of the state gasoline taxes, allocated on a per capita basis, to be used for street maintenance work. Interest earnings on any funds on deposit in the gas tax fund are required to accrue to that fund. Funds may be transferred from the gas tax fund to other funds during the year for street maintenance work.

Starting in 1997-98, the full amount of gas tax revenue received in the fiscal year is transferred to the General Fund on an ongoing basis, rather than just the projected revenue amount, as long as estimated Street Maintenance costs exceed the Town’s gas tax revenue.

On April 28, 2017, the Governor signed Senate Bill 1 (SB1), an increase in vehicle registration fees along with per-gallon gas and diesel tax increases. Distribution of funds to San Anselmo will follow the apportionment formula used for the current gas tax. Funding will be available for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on local streets and roads. 139

SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS

LIBRARY TAX FUND
The voters of San Anselmo approved a Special Library Services Tax of $49 per parcel effective July 1, 2010. The revenue from the tax was restricted to expenditures for expanding library hours, improving children’s services at the Library, including hiring a special children’s librarian, and enhancing general Library services.

A special Library Fund was created to record the revenue from the tax measure and the allowable expenditures. Any funds that are not expended at the end of a given year remain in the Fund and are available for budgeted expenditures in future years.

The voters of San Anselmo approved a renewal of the tax in June 2014 at $54 per parcel for nine years, with an annual increase of 3% per year. A special Library Tax Oversight Committee was established with the parcel tax renewal and monitors expenditures from this fund.

In November of 2022, voters renewed the existing library parcel tax (expiring in 2024) and extended it for another nine years, until 2033. It is anticipated that the Special Library Services Tax will create revenue of $309,111 for the Library next year.

The Special Library Services Tax requires that the tax funding augment, not displace, funding provided by the Town. To that end, the ordinance requires that the tax continues to be levied only if Town funding of the library remains above 90% of the amount budgeted for 2012-2013 ($449,765). The $449,765 figure was arrived at by taking the 2012-2013 Library budget ($545,685) and subtracting the budgeted donations from the Friends of the Library ($14,426), budgeted State library funding ($4,290) and budgeted library fines ($27,230). 90% of $499,739 is $449,765.

The amount budgeted in the General Fund for the Library in this proposed budget is $847,839, which is within the allowable parameters in the Special Library Tax Services measure. 143

ROBSON HOUSE FUND
The Robson House is an elegant mansion that was donated to the Town in 1968, with the agreement that it be used for the benefit of the community’s children. In 1978 a RobsonHarrington House Association was formed to restore, manage, and maintain the house as a civic, educational, recreational, and cultural center. In 2005 the Association was unable to find new board members willing to take on the considerable responsibilities of the house and the organization disbanded.

Management of the house has reverted to the Town.

Revenue from the rental of the upstairs offices has been sufficient over the past years to cover the ongoing operation and routine maintenance of the house. However, since 2011-12, personnel, utility, and maintenance costs have risen to the point that rental revenue does not cover the regular costs.

Rental increases were implemented in 2015-16, but even with a rental increase, rental revenue is not sufficient to cover the considerable deferred maintenance work and capital improvements that are needed to restore and maintain the house. The Town is budgeting $50,000 for adding an ADA bathroom, half of the cost will be funded through the Measure J Sales Tax fund.

SERVICES AND SUPPLIES
• Outside services – Pest control services, landscape services, fire safety equipment; special assistance for repairs ($2,110).
• Building maintenance – Janitorial Service ($15,600), other repair services ($1,500), Robson ADA bathroom ($40,000, a portion of the cost will be funded through Measure J sales tax). • Utilities – Electricity, water, telephone, and sewer ($7,000). • Department supplies – Material and supplies needed to maintain Robson house ($1,000). • Possessory tax payment – Taxable possessory interest assessment ($2,400). 147

SPECIAL EVENTS FUND
This fund was established in 2000-01 to track the revenues and expenses associated with the annual special events sponsored by the Town.

The fund was opened with a balance comprised of the proceeds from 1996 Country Fair Day, which was organized and managed by the Town for the first time in many years.

The fund was utilized in 2007 to fund events commemorating the Town’s centennial anniversary.

Over the years the events that the Town offers to our community have changed. The fund continues to be used to support Town events, such as the Live on the Avenue music series, the Goblins Parade, Teen and Children’s Egg Hunts, Breakfast with Santa, the Holiday Tree Lighting and United Against Hate.
$107,000 is committed for expenditures for the annual Town events. 151

MEASURE A PARKS TAX FUND
Revenue and expenditures associated with San Anselmo’s share of the Marin County one-quarter per cent (.25%) transactions and use tax, entitled Marin Parks, Open Space, and Farmland Preservation Transactions and Use Tax Ordinance are accounted for in this fund. Countywide, the tax is estimated to generate $10,000,000 per year for ten years. Fifteen per cent (15%) of the Measure A revenue is allocated to cities, towns, and special districts. San Anselmo’s share is 6.65% of that revenue.

The Town Council annually determines the distribution of these funds. For 2014-15, and including the partial funding for 2013-14, $55,494 was contributed to the Sky Ranch open space acquisition and $66,794 to Memorial Park improvements.

In 2015-16 and going forward, the Town Council decided that on an ongoing basis, 70% of the annual funding will go to Memorial Park and 30% to open space acquisition.

On January 26, 2021, the Town Council approved the Memorial Park Playing Field Repair Project for an estimated amount of $675,000, which $47,000 will come from General Fund Reserve and approximately $439,000 from Measure A Parks Tax Fund to supplement $177,982 from State Proposition 68 Per Capita funding.

MEASURE C WILDFIRE TAX FUND
In 2019, 17 Marin County agencies with fire prevention responsibilities formed the Marin Wildfire Prevention Authority (“MWPA”) through a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement. MWPA’s mission is to organize and sustain local wildfire prevention including early detection, warning, and alerts; reducing vegetation; ensuring defensible space around homes, neighborhoods, and critical infrastructure; and improving disaster evacuation routes/procedures; Marin Wildfire Prevention Measure, levying up to $10 cents per building square foot tax ($75 per multifamily unit) for ten years, providing $19,300,000 annually, with annual inflation adjustments, independent citizen oversight/audits, and low-income senior exemptions.

Defensible space and fire-resistant structure evaluations, and mitigation of fire threats thereof, will be funded by 20% of the tax measure proceeds and will be done on a shared service basis or by a responsible Member.

Local-specific wildfire prevention efforts will be funded by 20% of the tax measure proceeds and allocated to each member in proportion to revenue raised in each member’s respective tax rate areas. Members must certify that the tax measure proceeds are used consistently with the purpose of the Authority and that the tax measure expenses result in a higher level of service than would otherwise be provided by the member. The approximate allocation to the Town is $365,000 in FY2023-24.

CLIMATE ACTION FUND
On June 11, 2019, the Town Council adopted Resolution 4286: A Resolution of the Town Council of the Town of San Anselmo Adopting San Anselmo Climate Action Plan 2030. The Climate Action Plan 2030 (CAP) is a master plan to guide the development and implementation of local, measurable actions and initiatives to reduce local greenhouse gas emissions 54% by 2030 (from a 2005 baseline, or 45% below 1995 levels), with the goal of community-scale carbon neutrality by no later than 2045.

On February 11, 2020, the Town Council adopted Resolution No. 4325: A Resolution of the Town Council of the Town of San Anselmo Declaring a Climate and Ecological Emergency in San Anselmo.

In declaring a Climate and Ecological Emergency, the Town Council directed the Town Manager to (i) work with staff to include consideration and prioritization of consistency with the Climate Action Plan 2030, as amended or updated, in staff reports to Council and (ii) to earmark specific funds for greenhouse gas and climate change mitigation annually, beginning in the Fiscal Year 2020-2021. Subsequently, the 2020-2021 budget, adopted on June 23, 2020, included the addition of Appendix B, which tracked the Town’s anticipated spending on Climate Action Plan Implementation Programs.

With the adoption of the FY 2021-2022 budget, the Town Council formally recognized the ongoing need to devote resources towards implementing its Climate Action Plan. The creation of the Climate Fund is intended to help the Town build its capacity to identify and undertake climate action at the municipal level and to provide maximum transparency to the public on the Town’s progress.

In 2021-2022, funds are budgeted in the amount of $50,000 to hire a part-time Climate Action Coordinator (as described in the San Anselmo 2021-2023 Work Plan Priorities, Administrative & Finance Priority #10, adopted on April 27th, 2021) and for other expenses related to identifying and implementing policies, programs, and grants consistent with the Town’s stated climate action goals.

The proposed FY 2023-2024 budget for the Climate Action Fund is $230,000, which includes $133,247 in combined grant and rebate funding from the California Energy Commission, CalRecycle, Zero Waste Marin, Transportation Authority of Marin, Marin Clean Energy, and the Internal Revenue Service. $190,000 is budgeted for outside services to cover half of the salary for the part-time Climate Action Coordinator and hire consultants on an as needed basis to support implementation of climate action programs, policies, and projects including assistance with implementation of SolarAPP+ and SB 1383. Additional expenditures may include pilot projects (e.g., streetlight-connected EV chargers, micromobility charging network), rebate programs (e.g., electric landscape equipment, heat pumps, E-bikes), Zero Waste activities, an EV & E-bike show, and outreach/ educational materials.

CREEKSIDE COMMON FUND
At the Town Council meeting on September 25, 2018, Town Council discussed an idea related to planning for the renovation of Creek Park following the potential removal of the building at 630-636 San Anselmo Avenue, otherwise known as “Building Bridge 2”. This building was being considered for removal as part of the Marin County Flood Control and Water Conservation District’s San Anselmo Flood Risk Reduction Program (SAFRR).

An idea was brought forward for a local design competition using the post-building removal, expanded space at Creek Park as a canvas for collecting visionary design proposals with the potential to enliven the park and adjoining commercial district.

The goal of this competition would be to foster creativity and challenge participants to think outside the box; to propose exciting ideas that have never been considered possible for the space; to reimagine the existing urban/park landscape; and to aid in bringing Creek Park into the 21st Century.

On June 25, 2019, the Town Council directed the Town Manager to convene a Community Advisory Group (CAG) to help oversee the public process portion of the design development and conduct fundraising for the project.

Since then, the Town has received a total donation amount of $351,500 toward identifying opportunities to improve public areas associated with the flood control project, with the funding used for preliminary geotechnical studies, preliminary structural bridge, and abutment design, and RHAA renderings to visualize potential improvements.

More funding will be needed for the construction of the project. 171

ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION FUND
On June 21, 2023, the Town Council adopted a Resolution: A Resolution of the Town Council of the Town of San Anselmo Adopting an Active Transportation Fund Description and Active Transportation Fund Expenditure Guidelines.

In creating the Active Transportation Fund, the Town Council affirms the need to identify and implement priority active transportation infrastructure projects beyond the Town’s historical practice of adding “Complete Streets” elements to its existing paving and slurry seal program.

Thus, the Active Transportation Fund is intended to be used towards infrastructure projects independent from the ongoing implementation of Complete Streets features that are installed in tandem with larger capital projects.

Furthermore, the Council encourages that projects funded through the Active Transportation Fund should generally not be directed primarily or exclusively towards visual treatments (e.g., sharrows, striping, high visibility crosswalks, and Class III bicycle lanes) and should instead be allocated primarily to infrastructure and hardscape treatments that create physical safety, traffic calming effects, and enhanced accessibility and usability for all active transportation users. 179

CAPITAL RECONSTRUCTION FUND
The Capital Reconstruction Fund accounts for
the revenues and expenses of capital projects.

It is funded primarily by the General Fund. Prior
to the funding crisis beginning in 2003, Town
policy had been to make a transfer from current
year General Fund revenues, which is generally
70% of the amount of the prior year’s General
Fund carryover (excess of revenues carried
over from the prior year, less any transfer
needed to replenish the Emergency Projects
Fund). Because of the funding shortfalls in
the past several years, Council has opted to
allocate funds where they are most needed.

Projects are funded on a prioritized basis, based on health, safety, liability, cost-benefit, cost avoidance, and ability to deliver services, and categorized according to prior commitments (whether by written agreement with an outside entity, or by policy direction), liability/safety, and other. The project expenditures are typically categorized as follows:
• Commitments due to grants and loans. These are projects for which the Town has entered into written agreements for repayment of funds, or for which the Town would be responsible for returning funds to the grantee; in some cases, these funds have already been spent. • Recommended due to liability and/or safety concerns. The projects in this category have been identified as having safety and/or liability risks for the Town if they are not accomplished. • Recommended based on prior commitments and/or direction. These are projects for which Council has previously appropriated funds, established by policy as a priority, or given direction to staff to accomplish.
• Other. These projects or other funding recommendations do not fit into another category. The unprogrammed projects appropriation is used to fund unanticipated and emergency needs and cost overruns in budgeted projects.

EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT FUND
The Equipment Replacement Fund accounts for revenues that are restricted or otherwise designated for the purchase of Town equipment.

In the past, the Town did not have an adopted equipment replacement schedule and funding program but instead scheduled equipment acquisition and replacement as funds are available.

The Town has allocated about $200,000 each year for the last ten years from the General Fund to the Equipment Fund to fund the following costs:
• Town-wide computer hardware/software replacement or acquisition. • The debt service payment for the Marin Emergency Radio Authority (MERA) Bonds. • Vehicle lease payment for three electronic vehicles.
• Fund Town’s Climate Action Plan activities.

During 2020-21, the Town updated its inventory listings for Vehicle and Technology programs.

The Town decided to create two separate Internal Services Funds: Technologies Replacement and Vehicle Replacement funds to maintain the Town’s future Technology and Vehicle replacement activities.

DEBT SERVICE FUNDS

MEASURE G DEBT SERVICE
In June 1995, the San Anselmo voters approved a $10.8 million general obligation bond measure, known as Measure G, to finance improvements to the Town’s streets, storm drains, and Library building. This fund is dedicated to the collection of property tax assessments for the repayment of principal and interest on the bonds. As required by law, it was segregated from the Measure G Bond Proceeds Fund which was dedicated to the receipt and expenditure of the $10.8 million bond funds. A separate fund was established for each issue. The Measure G bond proceeds are fully expended.

Series 1995
The first bond issue of $2.125 million was sold in August 1995. The first debt service payment was made in February 1996, and the second in August 1996. This debt service schedule is repeated for the remainder of the series of payments. The debt service is being paid by a tax levied on the tax roll, beginning in the 1995-96 fiscal year. The tax rate levied per $100 of assessed valuation is as follows:
• 1995-96: 1.4 cents
• 1996-97: 1.2 cents
• 1997-98: 1.1 cents
• 1998-99: 1.2 cents

• 2010-11: 0.8 cents
• 2011-12: (Refunded in conjunction
with 1997 and 2000 issues)
Any tax proceeds remaining in excess of debt service payments and interest revenue on funds in the debt service fund are designated as a reserve for future year payments. 191

Fund Balance
The revenue in this fund is collected as part of the property tax bill. The Town receives this revenue in December and April. The Debt Service payments are due in August and February.

Due to the timing difference, it is necessary to maintain a fund balance sufficient to make the August payment of the succeeding fiscal year.

INSURANCE FUND
The Insurance Fund receives and expends funds related to the Town’s liability and workers’ compensation self-insurance coverage.

Liability Insurance
On July 1, 1996, the Town became a member of the Bay Cities Joint Powers Insurance Authority (Bay Cities), a self-insurance pool that provides liability insurance coverage to twenty agencies in the Bay Area. Each member agency selects a self-insured retention limit. With the transition to Central Marin Police Authority for police services, the Town’s self-insured retention has been reduced to $10,000 (from the previous amount of $100,000), below which the agency pays the claim costs. The insurance authority is responsible for costs above the limit, although it purchases excess insurance coverage for costs above $1 million, up to $20 million. A premium for coverage is charged based on the self-insured limit selected, the member agency’s claim history and exposure, and the financial standing of the pool. Beginning in 1999-00, Bay Cities coverage includes personnel-related liabilities.

Workers Compensation
Until June 30, 2003, the Town was a member of the Marin County Risk Management Authority (MCRMA), a self-insurance pool for workers’ compensation coverage. Called an “account pool,” this self-insurance program maintained separate accounts for each pool member. Losses and expenses were paid from the member’s pool account, up to the self-insured retention limit.

Effective July 1, 2003, the MCRMA group transferred to the Bay Cities Joint Powers Insurance Authority (Bay Cities), as the MCRMA Program Administrator retired. The Town’s self-insured retention in the Bay Cities Workers Compensation pool is $150,000. Costs more than this limit are paid by the Authority, although it purchases excess insurance coverage from a commercial insurance agency.

Annually, Bay Cities evaluates the financial risk position of each member and establishes an annual assessment based on outstanding claims and claim history. 203

VEHICLE REPLACEMENT FUND
The Vehicle Replacement Fund accounts for the costs of operating and maintaining the Town’s vehicle program.

During the fiscal year 2020-21, the Town updated its vehicle inventory list and developed a replacement strategy. Historically, vehicle replacement, repair, or lease expenses have been budgeted in the Equipment Fund or run through the Public Works Department operating cost. The Town proposes charging user departments $100,000 from the General fund for the FY2023-24 budget year. Any unused funding will stay within the fund and build up the reserve for future needs.

Staff will continue to look for opportunities to use alternative fuel vehicles or other opportunities to reduce air pollution.

CAUTION: External Sender
To the Council Members,
As a member of the San Anselmo Climate Action Commission, I want to express my sincere appreciation for the Council’s decision to increase the amount of the Climate Action Fund this year.

The Fund will help us accelerate the use of climate saving technologies and services like additional EV chargers, ebike rebates , secure lockers for ebikes, and electrified landscape equipment.

The Climate Action Fund enables us to transform the aspirational goals of the San Anselmo Climate Action Plan into concrete projects
that make a real difference in our Town’s carbon footprint and in the lives of the residents of San Anselmo,
as well as establishing San Anselmo as a leader in the struggle to deal with the effects of climate change.

MEETING DATE: June 27, 2023
AGENDA TITLE: Revised Salary Schedules for Management, SEIU, and Part-time Employees
FROM: David Donery, Town Manager
Jeff Zuba, Finance & Admin Services Director
RECOMMENDATION: That the Town Council consider adopting the attached resolutions revising the pay schedules for Management, SEIU, and Part-time employees.

BACKGROUND
At its June 21, 2023 meeting, Town Council approved the Recreation Reorganization adding a Recreation Manager, Recreation Senior Supervisor, and Recreation Coordinator III. The salary schedules for Management and SEIU have been revised to include those positions.

The Part-time employee schedule is being revised due to the change in the minimum wage from $15.00 to $15.50 effective January 2023.

CEQA AND CLIMATE ACTION PLAN CONSISTENCY
The Council’s discussion and approval of these resolutions is not a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act, because it does not involve an activity that has the potential to cause a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. (Cal. Pub. Res. Code § 21065).

FISCAL IMPACT
The potential budget impact associated with adopting the recreation positions, job descriptions, classifications, and pay ranges is approximately $33,000 for FY2023-24.

The positions would be funded through the recreation budget. The updates for the parttime employees were already included in the fiscal year 2023-24 budget. 227

Effective July 1, 2024 THROUGH June 30, 2025
EXHIBIT A - 5
Effective July 1, 2024

Item #: 1.8

STAFF REPORT
TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO Item #: 1.8
MEETING DATE: June 27, 2023
AGENDA TITLE: “Measure A” Parks Tax Allocation – FY 2023/2024 FROM: Dannielle Mauk, Community Services Director
Jeff Zuba, Finance & Admin Services Director
RECOMMENDATION: That Council receive a report on options for the 2023/24 Work Plan for the Town’s allotment of Measure A funds. Staff recommends that the Town Council allocate 70% towards the Memorial Park Fund and 30% towards the San Anselmo Open Space Fund. Based on the 2023/24 estimates provided by the County of Marin ($117,485), this would represent $82,239 for the Memorial Park Fund and $35,246 for the Open Space Fund.

BACKGROUND
On November 6, 2012, Marin County voters approved the Marin Parks, Open Space, and Farmland Preservation Transactions and Use Tax Ordinance (“MEASURE A”). The tax expired at the end of March 2022, voters decided to renew it on June 7, 2022.

MEASURE A levies a one-quarter percent transaction and use tax in Marin County and is estimated to generate approximately $16,000,000 per year for the ten-year term of the measure.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
2013/14 Allocation
In November of 2013, the Town Council voted to allocate 100% of the 2013/14 Measure A funds allotted to San Anselmo, which was estimated to be in the amount of $35,897, towards the purchase of the Sky Ranch property in Fairfax and San Anselmo to be used as open space lands. The 2013/14 Measure A funds ended up exceeding the County’s estimates by $12,175, for a total of $ 48,072. These additional funds were deposited into the Town’s Measure A account for a future designation. 240
Item #: 1.8
At that time, Council directed staff to engage both the Open Space Committee and the Parks and Recreation Commission in the creation of Measure A recommendations for consideration by the Town Council.
2014/15 Allocation
At the Council Meeting held on May 13, 2014, the Council was presented with options from both the Parks & Recreation Commission and Open Space Committee for use of the 2014 Measure A funds. These recommendations included committing 100% of the 2014/15 allocation towards future improvements at Memorial Park. This recommendation took into consideration the fact that 100% of the 2013/14 allocation went towards the Sky Ranch acquisition. The second recommendation was that 90% be allocated towards Memorial Park and 10% be allocated to the Open Space Fund.

During the discussion of these options, members of the Open Space Committee reported that serious negotiations were underway for the purchase of the Sky Ranch property for use as open space and requested that the Council postpone the decision on the 2014/15 Measure A Work Plan until the May 27,2014 Town Council meeting.

The Council chose to postpone the decision to May 27, 2014 At the May 27,2014 Town Council meeting, after a lengthy discussion, the Council decided by a 3 to 2 vote to allocate $55,494 towards the purchase of the Sky Ranch property, and to allocate $66,794 towards future improvements at Memorial Park. The Sky Ranch allocation represented the full allocation from 2013/14 of $48,072 plus 10% of the estimated 2014/15 funding or $7,422.
2015/16 Allocation
In preparation for the decision regarding the 2015/16 Measure A Work Plan and funding allocations, staff met with the Open Space Committee to discuss the development of a unified and equitable formula to present to the Town Council regarding the allocation of the annual Measure A funding. Staff defined the urgent need for accumulating funds for improvements at Memorial Park and Open Space Committee members outlined the many exciting and complex opportunities existing both currently and on the horizon. After this discussion and some negotiation, it was agreed that a split of 70% towards Memorial Park improvements and 30% towards the Open Space Fund was a good recommendation to bring to the Town Council.

The Town Council approved the recommendation, and since 2015/16 the Measure A funds have been split, designating 70% towards Memorial Park improvements and 30% towards the Open Space Fund. This recommendation is intended to be renewed each year pending any significant changes.
241
Item #: 1.8
2023/24 Allocation
The estimate for the Measure A funds provided by the County of Marin for 2023/24 is $117,485. In preparation for the decision regarding the 2023/24 Measure A Work Plan and funding allocations, staff contacted the Open Space Committee and confirmed that they would like to continue the 70/30 split with Memorial Park and Open Space.

FISCAL IMPACT
Based on the 2023/24 estimates provided by the County of Marin, $117,485 will be distributed to the Town of San Anselmo.

GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY

STAFF REPORT
TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO Item #: 3.1
MEETING DATE: June 27, 2023
AGENDA TITLE: Marin Countywide EV Acceleration Strategy Presentation
FROM: Sean Youra, Climate Action Coordinator
RECOMMENDATION:

1. Receive the Marin Countywide Electric Vehicle Acceleration Strategy presentation from Christine O’Rourke, MCEP Sustainability Coordinator

2. Provide direction to staff on whether to develop a work plan as proposed in Appendix A of the EV Acceleration Strategy (Attachment 1)

BACKGROUND
The Marin Countywide Electric Vehicle Acceleration Strategy (Attachment 1) was developed by the Marin Climate & Energy Partnership (MCEP), which is comprised of the eleven cities and towns of Marin, the County of Marin, MCE, the Transportation Authority of Marin (TAM), and the Marin Municipal Water District. Established in 2007, MCEP works to develop and implement mutual programs and policies outlined in each agency’s Climate Action Plan (CAP) in an efficient and cost-effective manner. Funding for the Strategy was provided by TAM through its Alternative Fuels Program. The Strategy is designed to help Marin communities reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and enable the widespread adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) by 2030 outlined as a goal in each jurisdiction’s CAP. In addition to the accelerated adoption of light, medium, and heavy-duty EVs, the Strategy also supports the widespread use of electric bikes, scooters, and motorcycles.

DISCUSSION
San Anselmo’s CAP includes ambitious goals to reduce GHG emissions 54% by 2030 from a 2005 baseline and reach carbon neutrality by 2045. According to San Anselmo’s latest GHG inventory for the year 2020, community emissions have decreased 33% since 2005. Transportation remains the largest sector in terms of GHG emissions in San Anselmo, accounting for approximately 58% of total emissions. Within the transportation sector, 86% of the emissions come from passenger vehicles with the remainder coming from commercial vehicles (13%) and public transportation (1%). To meet the 2030 CAP goal of reducing emissions 54% by 2030, emissions reductions from the transportation 262
Item #: 3.1
sector must be prioritized. San Anselmo’s adopted EV Strategy (Attachment 2) also has an additional goal of achieving 3,000 zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) registrations by 2030.

As shown in Figure 4 of the EV Acceleration Strategy (Attachment 1), San Anselmo had

10.5% ZEVs registered by the end of 2021 (the highest percentage in the County).

San Anselmo’s CAP includes specific measures to reduce transportation emissions with the largest reductions coming from transitioning to ZEVs. Specifically, the estimated emissions reduction would be 5,242 metric tons CO2e if San Anselmo achieves its goal of having 3,000 ZEVs registered by 2030. To complement San Anselmo’s CAP measures to reduce transportation emissions, the EV Acceleration Strategy discusses barriers to EV adoption and strategies to address those barriers. These barriers and strategies were identified through outreach to local government staff, nonprofits, regional agencies, and community leaders. A total of 36 actions are enumerated in the Strategy that are intended to guide implementation and accelerate EV adoption. The actions are further grouped under four general themes:

1. Conduct Robust Community Outreach and Education

2. Accelerate Public Charging Infrastructure

3. Increase Municipal Fleet Electrification

4. Support and Advocate for Policy and Funding that Accelerates EV Adoption Although San Anselmo has already implemented or is in the process of implementing several of these actions such as conducting EV outreach and education (OE-1), adopting reach codes that facilitate the transition to EVs (PC-3), and installing municipal chargers (MF-4), there is an opportunity for staff to evaluate the actions in the Strategy and determine which actions should be prioritized for implementation to accelerate EV adoption in the Town.

In addition to receiving the presentation on the EV Acceleration Strategy, staff is seeking direction from the Council on whether to develop a work plan as presented in Appendix A of the Strategy that would identify and prioritize specific actions including which department would be responsible for implementation, the time frame required for implementation, an estimate of staff time to complete implementation, and funding sources that may be available to support implementation. To develop the work plan, the Climate Action Coordinator would work closely with Public Works and other relevant departments, along with the Climate Action Commission. Staff would also review the Town’s existing EV Strategy adopted in 2018 to determine which actions have already been completed and which ones should be prioritized for implementation in the work plan (Attachment 2).

FISCAL IMPACT
If directed by Council, existing staff resources would be used to develop and implement the EV Acceleration Strategy work plan.

GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
Not applicable
263
Item #: 3.1

CEQA AND CLIMATE ACTION PLAN CONSISTENCY
The Council’s review and discussion of the EV Acceleration Strategy 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 indirect physical change in the environment (Cal. Pub. Res. Code § 21065).

The EV Acceleration Strategy is consistent with the following measures of the adopted Climate Action Plan:
 T-1: Zero Emission Vehicles: Implement an Electric Vehicle Strategy that will result in 3,000 ZEVs, including plug-in EVs and hydrogen fuel cell EVs, in San Anselmo by 2030.
 T-2: Bicycling: Encourage bicycling as an alternative to vehicular travel.

Establish and maintain a system of bicycle facilities that are consistent with the Town’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan and Complete Streets policies.  T-11: Zero and Low Emission Town Vehicles: Run Town fleet vehicles on 100% renewable sources by 2030. Purchase or lease EVs for Town fleet wherever possible, unless no model is economically viable. Ensure that all available pricing incentives, purchase contracts and financing options are considered when assessing EV fleet purchases. Consider resale value of vehicles in cost comparisons.

1 Marin Countywide EV Acceleration Strategy
Outcome Statement
for Marin County
Marin will be a thriving county where electric
vehicles (EVs) are integrated with other options in
a healthy, sustainable, and equitable transportation
system. Marin jurisdictions will support a holistic
approach to reducing and ultimately eliminating
the use of fossil fuel-powered cars by residents,
visitors, businesses, and organizations, and will
encourage biking, micromobility, walking, shared
transportation, and transit use and reduced
dependence on the automobile. Marin jurisdictions
will support programs that facilitate a transition
toward EVs and ensure information is widely
available about EV benefits, models, affordability,
rebate and incentive opportunities, and associated
infrastructure. Permitting and regulatory
processes will be efficient and transparent, and
charging infrastructure and parking will be
abundant, highly visible, accessible, and available
to all. Marin’s local governments will lead the way,
building and supporting a safe and well-connected
bicycle, pedestrian, and transit network and
encouraging alternative modes of transportation
while transforming their public fleet to all-electric
and providing EV chargers at public parking lots.

A Guide to Using this Strategy
This Strategy is intended to inform and support
jurisdiction staff within Marin County to implement
local Climate Action Plans, specifically in relation to accelerating the adoption of EVs in their respective
communities.

The following sections are included:

The Executive Summary provides decision-makers
with a list of key actions that advance the community’s readiness to adopt clean, EV technology.

The Introduction orients the reader to the goals and
guiding principles of this Strategy and why Marin cities, towns, and the County encourage the adoption of EVs
within the context of state, regional, and local greenhouse gas emission reduction goals and plans. This section also contains definitions pertinent to
zero-emission vehicles and infrastructure.

The Existing Conditions section discusses both
existing and projected numbers of EVs and EV chargers
in the community and at the local government level, as
well as building codes that require installation of EV
infrastructure.

The Barriers to Adoption section identifies existing
barriers to the widespread adoption of EVs.

The Recommended EV Acceleration Strategies and
Actions section identifies strategies and recommended
actions to overcome barriers and accelerate EV
adoption in Marin.

EVs vs. ZEVs
This Strategy uses the term “electric
vehicles” or “EVs” in reference to both fully
electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles that have a battery and an internal combustion engine and can run solely on
the battery for limited mileage. The term
“zero emission vehicles” or “ZEVs” refers
to these electric vehicles as well as fuel
cell electric vehicles that run on hydrogen.

There are very few fuel cell vehicles in
Marin County. While this Strategy focuses
on EVs, it recognizes that fuel cell vehicles
may play a larger role in the future.

Item 3.1 Attachment 1
Item 3.1 Attachment 1
269
2 Marin Countywide EV Acceleration Strategy
Executive Summary
By the end of 2021, Marin County was home to more
than 12,360 zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs), over 930
public and shared private chargers (not including
home chargers), and a growing number of electric
bicycles and scooters, positioning the county as a
leader in EV adoption in California and the United
States. Citizens and local leaders recognize the
urgent need for much higher electric vehicle adoption rates, in tandem with greater use of all forms of low-carbon transportation, if Marin’s communities
are to meet the long-term greenhouse gas reduction goals established in their local Climate Action Plans. The transportation sector currently contributes more than half of countywide greenhouse gas emissions, and light-duty vehicles represent 80%
of those emissions. Success will not be possible
without a transformative shift to EVs, which currently make up less than 6% of all light duty vehicles registered in the County.

Marin’s local governments have incorporated the
acceleration of EV adoption into their Climate Action Plans and are taking steps to integrate EVs into their fleets and facilitate EV adoption by the public.

This Strategy lays the path forward to accelerate
the use of EVs by both public agencies and community members.

The Strategy provides background information to
familiarize the reader with EVs and EV charging
terminology; existing EV and EV charging conditions
and projections; state and local legislation, policies, and actions aimed at increasing the number of EVs
on the road; and barriers to widespread EV adoption. The Strategy then identifies strategies and recommended actions that jurisdictions can take to
address these barriers
Key actions include:

Adopting a reach code that requires EV charging equipment installation for multi-family and non-residential developments above State building code requirements.

The number of required ‘EV Ready’ spaces and chargers should support local EV targets.

Facilitating the proliferation of EV charging stations
in local shopping centers, large workplaces, and on
well-traveled corridors by removing permitting obstacles, such as parking minimums or sign ordinances.

Encouraging community members to drive EVs through
awareness campaigns across multiple media platforms
and outlets, public outreach, and events.

Addressing perceived and real barriers to adoption.

Ensuring equitable access to programs and outreach
that includes all income levels and communities of color.

Item 3.1 Attachment 1
Item 3.1 Attachment 1

3 Marin Countywide EV Acceleration Strategy
Participating in regional and coordinated local procurement efforts, outreach campaigns, and planning efforts.

Piloting cutting-edge EV solutions that showcase new
technologies and have the potential to accelerate EV
adoption.

Advocating for and supporting regional, state, and
federal legislation, policies, and funding to incentivize and facilitate the widespread availability of EVs and EV charging.

Committing to achieving a 100% ZEV public agency
fleet as technology improves and special-duty vehicles
become available. Maintaining a pipeline of priority EV fleet conversions and regularly updating this list.

Committing to expanding the availability of EV chargers on municipality-owned land and exploring partnerships
with third-party vendors to reduce installation costs.

Introduction
Goal of the Strategy
The goal of this Strategy is to help Marin communities reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, lower vehicle operating and fuel costs, and improve air
quality by encouraging the use of electric vehicles
(EVs) in lieu of driving fossil fuel-powered vehicles
and transforming municipal fleets to EVs. Fueling
vehicles in Marin offers the potential to use 100%
renewable electricity, an environmentally responsible fuel source. The widespread adoption of EVs by 2030 is a critical component of meeting individual
jurisdictions’ Climate Action Plan (CAP) goals and
is an important step in achieving meaningful greenhouse gas reductions. The Strategy also supports the State’s goal to require all new light-duty vehicle
sales in California to be ZEVs by 2035.

Origins of the Strategy
The content of the Strategy, its guiding principles,
and recommended actions, are the result of the
planning process undertaken by the Marin Climate
and Energy Partnership (MCEP), which is comprised
of the eleven cities and towns of Marin, the County
of Marin, MCE, the Transportation Authority of Marin,
and the Marin Municipal Water District. Established
in 2007, MCEP works to efficiently and cost-effectively implement mutual programs outlined in each agency’s CAP. Funding for the Strategy was provided by the Transportation Authority of Marin through its Alternative Fuels Program.

Zero-Emission Vehicle Types
The State of California identifies three types of
electric vehicles as Zero-Emission Vehicles, or
ZEVs, as shown in Table 1 [1] In Marin County, most
ZEVs are battery electric vehicles (BEVs), comprising two-thirds of the 12,369 ZEVs registered with the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV)
in Marin County by the end of 2021. Plug-in hybrid
electric vehicles (PHEVs) represent about one-third
of all ZEVs, and there were 56 fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) registered in Marin County in 2021.

This Strategy uses the term electric vehicle (EV) to
describe a BEV or PHEV.
[1]
California Energy Commission (2021),
https://www.energy.ca.gov/data-reports/
energy-insights/zero-emission-vehicle-and-charger-statistics. Although plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) have an
internal combustion engine and use fossil
fuels, the state includes them as zero-emission vehicles. This Strategy similarly includes PHEVs as zero-emission vehicles.

5 Marin Countywide EV Acceleration Strategy
The term “Zero-Emission Vehicle” refers to emissions created from energy used to power the vehicle and does not include emissions generated over the
course of the vehicle’s life cycle, including mining,
manufacturing, and disposal. Despite these “embodied” or “life cycle” emissions, studies show that ZEVs have lower greenhouse gases over the course of
their lifecycles than fossil fuel vehicles. [2] However, the embodied emissions can vary significantly

the size and weight of the vehicle and of the battery.

In addition to supporting the accelerated adoption
of electric light, medium, and heavy-duty vehicles,
this Strategy also supports the widespread use of
electric bikes, scooters, and motorcycles.

2. Fuel cell EVs charge at a dedicated hydrogen
fueling station. Currently, there is one station located on Redwood Boulevard in Strawberry, which provides 67% fossil fuel-derived hydrogen and 33%
renewable hydrogen. [3]
[3]
Currently, most hydrogen is produced from
natural gas. Electricity can also be used to
generate hydrogen through the process of
electrolysis. Renewable hydrogen is produced from electricity that comes from renewable resources like solar, wind, geothermal, biomass, and small-scale hydropower.

Transportation Emissions
Each year, MCEP prepares communitywide GHG
emissions inventories for every Marin jurisdiction. Emissions are categorized according to eight sectors: Built Environment – Electricity; Built Environment – Natural Gas; Transportation; Off-Road Vehicles and Equipment; Waste; Water; Wastewater;
and Agriculture.

The Transportation sector includes more than half
of all communitywide emissions in Marin County
(Figure 1), and is influenced by a wide range of factors, including vehicle ownership, land use, neighborhood design, housing availability and affordability, fleet composition, and vehicle speeds. This is true for all the individual towns and cities in Marin
except Belvedere and Ross, where the Built Environment – Natural Gas sector leads, and the County of Marin, where the Agriculture sector is the largest
source of emissions. The inventory represented In
Figure 1 shows emissions in 2020, the latest year
data for all eight sectors is available.

The Transportation sector includes tailpipe emissions from passenger vehicle trips originating and/ or ending in Marin, as well as tailpipe emissions
generated by medium and heavy-duty vehicles and
buses traveling on Marin County roads. The sector
FIGURE 1: Marin Countywide Emissions by Sector, 2020

Item 3.1 Attachment 1
Item 3.1 Attachment 1
276
9 Marin Countywide EV Acceleration Strategy
includes emissions from Marin Transit and Golden
Gate Transit buses and the SMART train as these
vehicles travel within Marin County and half of the
emissions generated by Golden Gate ferries for
trips that serve Marin ferry terminals. As shown
in Figure 2, passenger vehicles represent 80% of
transportation emissions, while commercial vehicles
account for 19% of emissions, and public transportation just 1%.

Emissions from electricity used by EVs are embedded in the Built Environment – Electricity sector and vary according to the power content of electricity
and, for plug-in hybrid vehicles, the number of miles
driven using the vehicle’s electric battery. While
the electricity supplied in Marin County is some of
the cleanest electricity in the nation, the only way to ensure that an EV is not generating emissions is to
charge with MCE Deep Green electricity or a comparable 100% renewable electricity product such as PG&E 100% Solar, in addition to charging when
there is ample renewable electricity on the grid, or
using electricity being produced or stored on-site
via a solar array and battery storage.

State and Regional ZEV Goals,
Legislation, and Plans
The State of California has adopted legislation to
reduce statewide emissions 40% below 1990 levels
by 2030 (Senate Bill 32) and has set longer term
goals to reduce emissions 85% below 1990 levels
and achieve carbon neutrality by 2045 (Assembly
Bill 1279).

To meet these goals, significant reductions in passenger vehicle travel through the use of walking, biking, public transportation, and shared transportation, along with wide-scale adoption of EVs, including e-bikes, and electrification of all types of
transportation are required.

The State uses various regulations to reduce transportation emissions including increases in fuel economy standards, promotion of alternatives to
vehicles with internal combustion engines (ICEs),
and reduction in vehicle miles traveled (VMT) in
passenger vehicles.

With the passage of SB 375, California established
a planning process that coordinates land use planning, transportation plans, and air quality plans to support meeting its GHG reduction goals. One of
the state’s priorities is to reduce VMT by encouraging the co-location of housing, jobs, services, and education so that people rely less on personal cars
and trucks and more on transit, biking, walking, and
micromobility options. Regional long-range transportation plans are required to reduce VMT to meet mandated GHG reductions and focus on the interrelated elements of housing, the economy, transportation, and the environment.

Plan Bay Area 2050 is the Bay Area’s regional transportation plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy and is required to meet a 19% reduction in GHG
emissions. The plan identifies policies and investments over the next three decades to shape how Bay Area residents get around and to support land
use policies that support multimodal transportation
options. The transportation strategies outlined in
Plan Bay Area 2050 maintain and optimize the existing transportation system, while creating healthy and safe streets and building a next-generation
transit network.

SB 743 introduced changes to how transportation impacts are measured through the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), requiring new
developments to reduce VMT by 15% per capita,
reflecting the impact of land use decisions on the
transportation system.

Micromobility
Micromibility refers to forms of transportation, human-powered or electric, that can occpy space alonside bicycles. It includes electric scooters and skateboards, docked and dockless shared bikes, and
other forms of small, ligthweight devices
operating at speed typically below 20 mph.

Micromobility devices do not have an
internal combustion engine.

Item 3.1 Attachment 1
Item 3.1 Attachment 1
278
11 Marin Countywide EV Acceleration Strategy
In addition to changes in mobility, the State has introduced the Low Carbon Fuel Standard, designed to reduce the carbon intensity of transportation fuels
in California, and the Advanced Clean Cars Program
establishes fuel efficiency standards that require
automobile manufacturers to produce a certain
number of ZEVs each year based on the total number of cars sold in California by the manufacturer.

The State has also set specific targets for ZEV
adoption. In January 2018, Governor Brown signed
Executive Order B-48-18, setting a target of 250,000
electric vehicle chargers and 200 hydrogen fueling
stations installed to support 1.5 million ZEVs on
California roads by 2025, with a longer-term goal of
5 million ZEVs by 2030.

In September 2020, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-79-20, setting the following ZEV targets for California:
100% percent of in-state sales of new passenger cars
and light-duty trucks to be ZEVs by 2035,
100% of medium- and heavy-duty vehicles operating in
the State to be ZEVs by 2045 where feasible, and
100% zero-emission off-road vehicles and equipment
operations by 2035, where feasible.

The California Governor’s Office of Business and
Economic Development’s California Zero-Emission
Vehicle Development Strategy (February 2021)
presents a high-level roadmap to achieve these
ambitious targets. The Strategy is centered on four
market pillars – vehicles, infrastructure, end users, and workforce – and identifies the roles and responsibilities of each public and private market
player. The Strategy identifies local governments’
roles in permitting, code development and adoption,
municipal fleets, planning (e.g., Climate Action Plans
and EV Readiness Plans), directional charging signage, and vehicle and infrastructure incentives.

Regionally, the Bay Area Air Quality Management
District (“Air District”) has set a target for 1.5 million ZEVs in the Bay Area by 2030 (equivalent to 27%
of the 2020 registered vehicle population) and for
90% of vehicles in the Bay Area to be zero emissions
by 2050. The Air District released a draft Bay Area
Electric Vehicle Acceleration Plan in March 2021 that
encourages local governments to enact EV ready
reach codes by 2030, adopt EV charging station
permitting and streamlining procedures and policies by 2022, and prioritize and empower low-income and communities of color that are disproportionately impacted by air pollution and climate change. The Air District’s Plan details 23 specific
actions that local governments can take. These
Item 3.1 Attachment 1
Item 3.1 Attachment 1

12 Marin Countywide EV Acceleration Strategy
actions were considered in the development of this
Strategy, along with the eleven local government
strategies identified in the California Zero-Emission
Vehicle Development Strategy discussed above.

Local Climate Action Plan Goals
and Targets for ZEVs
The eleven cities and towns in Marin and the County
of Marin have adopted Climate Action Plans that set
long-term targets to reduce emissions within the
communities they serve. Currently, ten of the twelve
jurisdictions have adopted ZEV targets for the percentage of passenger vehicles registered in Marin County in their updated CAPs (Table 3) [5] . Meeting
these ZEV targets is critical to achieving their overall GHG reduction goals for 2030.

ZEV Adoption and Sales
While California’s ZEV goals are a huge challenge,
they also offer an excellent opportunity. ZEVs were
California’s number one export in 2020[6] and
approximately 43% of all ZEVs in the US are sold in
California. [7] With over 70,000 shared EV chargers
and 45 hydrogen fueling stations, California is the
country’s leader in ZEV infrastructure.

California DMV registration data shows that Marin
had 12,369 ZEVs by end of 2021, representing 5.8%
of the county’s light-duty vehicles (Figure 3). Of all
counties in California, Marin County has one of the
highest rates of adoption, second only to Santa
Clara County at 6.0%. Within Marin County, ZEV registration rates range from a high of 10.5% for Ross to a low of 4.0% for Novato (Figure 4).

In 2021, BEVs accounted for 66% of all ZEVs registered in Marin County, PHEVs made up nearly 34%, and FCEVs less than 1%. Across the state, ZEVs
made up 10.7% of new car sales in Q1-Q2 2021,
with Tesla accounting for 47% of ZEV sales and the
Model Y being the most popular EV. Auto manufacturers are currently producing 35 BEV models and 38 PHEV models, although availability has been

limited for many models.[8] The emergence of new
EV models at lower price points, in addition to the
inclusion of popular models such as the Ford F-150
pickup truck, present an opportunity for increased
conversion. Many automobile manufacturers have
also announced plans to phase out and ultimately
stop producing internal combustion engine vehicles, some as early as 2025.

It is important to note that EV adoption is significantly higher among Marin’s more affluent communities and increasing equitable access to EV programs for lower-income communities in Marin
County is a founding principle of this Strategy.

15 Marin Countywide EV Acceleration Strategy
While quantitative data does not exist, empirical
data suggests that e-bikes and e-scooter adoption
is rapidly growing throughout Marin, and they are
providing an efficient and credible alternative for
many local errands and commutes. Because 57% of
daily trip lengths are 5 miles or less in Marin County
(and another 20% between 5 and 10 miles), [9] and
because the starting cost of an e-bike is around
$1,000, e-bikes can eliminate greenhouse gas emissions for local trips in a way that is more affordable and accessible for people and families who are not
yet able to access EVs. A study by the Transportation Authority of Marin in 2020, Electric Bicycles in Marin, provides a comprehensive overview of
the benefits and challenges to e-bike use, the role
e-bikes can play as part of the transportation system in Marin County, and what public agencies and private entities can do to encourage their use.

EV Market Projections
For the past seven years, BloombergNEF has produced a Long-Term Electric Vehicle Outlook analysis. 2021 marked the first year the company forecasted
a major increase in its EV adoption outlook, driven
by rising policy support around the globe, increased
commitments from automobile manufacturers, new
battery technologies and lower expected costs,
accelerated investment in infrastructure, and rising
consumer adoption. In its 2022 report, the company projects 23% of new passenger vehicle sales globally will be EVs in 2025, with three-quarters of
those sales for BEVs. In that year, approximately
6% of the global passenger vehicle fleet will be EVs.

BloombergNEF also asserts that internal combustion engine (ICE) passenger vehicle sales reached their peak in 2017 and now are in “permanent
decline.” [10] Unsubsidized price parity between ICE
vehicles will be achieved by the late 2020s for most
passenger and commercial end uses. The 2022
report also acknowledges, as one of its five key
thematic highlights, the importance of reshaping
mobility demand through modal shifts and names
the public sector as uniquely positioned to drive
demand reductions: “Governments should prioritize
investments in these areas, many of which also have
concurrent health benefits.” [11]
In California, the Bay Area Air Quality Management
District has developed two potential pathways to
reaching its 2050 goal of EVs accounting for 90% of
the fleet (or roughly 5 million EVs). Figure 5 shows
historic share of EVs in the Bay Area based on DMV
data through 2019, then charts two different trajectories (i.e., traditional and expedited) to reaching the 2050 goal. The projections assume EVs achieve
cost parity with ICE vehicles in 2024, resulting in
varying degrees of impact based on the projection

trajectory. The traditional trajectory assumes economic stagnation and only a slight uptick in new EV sales as range anxiety continues to be a large
barrier to adoption, and the expedited trajectory
assumes consumer demand increases as price
outweighs range anxiety. The graph also considers
the enactment of a ban on new ICE vehicle sales in
2035, as outlined in Executive Order N-79-20. While
these projections use estimates for the actual EV
share increases, they show two different paths the
Bay Area EV market might take to 2050.

In Marin County, ZEV registrations will need to
increase 14% annually to reach a ZEV penetration
rate that is 25% of all passenger vehicles registered
in Marin by 2030; an annual growth rate of 27% is
needed to achieve a 45% adoption rate. Between
2019 and 2021, annual EV growth rates have averaged 21%. Assuming Marin can sustain a 21% EV growth rate, 35% of Marin’s light-duty vehicle population will be ZEVs in 2030, as shown in Figure 6.

FIGURE 7: Percent of New ZEV Registrations Needed
to Reach 35% Adoption Target vs. State Sales Target
Figure 7 shows the percent of new ZEV registrations in Marin needed to achieve a 35% adoption rate in 2030. This is compared to Statewide targets
for new ZEV sales. The Advanced Clean Cars II rule
establishes a year-by-year roadmap so that by 2035
100% of new cars and light trucks sold in California
will be ZEVs. The regulation realizes and codifies
the light-duty vehicle goals set out in Governor
Newsom’s Executive Order N-79-20, and establishes an increasing number of ZEVs beginning in model year 2026. Sales of new ZEVs will start with
35% that year, build to 68% in 2030, and reach 100%
in 2035. The 2021 data point reflects actual sales,
and the 2022-2025 data points are interpolated.

This analysis suggests that ambitious targets are
achievable but will most likely require concerted
and coordinated efforts among local governments,
public agencies, and community partners, as well as
a continuing expansion of EV programs and infrastructure that address existing barriers to widespread EV adoption.

EV Charging Infrastructure
The California Energy Commission (CEC) tracks the
number of public and shared private EV chargers
in California counties. Public chargers are locat-
ed at parking spaces available and accessible to
the public. Shared chargers are located at parking
spaces designated by a property owner or lessee
to be available to employees, tenants, visitors, and
residents, such as workplaces and shared parking
at multifamily buildings.

According to CEC statistics, there were 739 public
and shared private EV chargers in Marin as of Jan-
uary 2022. The majority of these are Level 2 char-
gers, representing 88% (or 650) of the total number
of chargers. In addition, there were 88 Level 3 char-
gers and one Level 1 charger. Approximately 75% of
the chargers were public, and 25% were shared pri-
vate chargers. This data does not include private EV
chargers installed in single family homes. Although
the Marin jurisdictions do not track this data in a
manner that allows robust analysis and aggrega-
tion, anecdotal evidence from Building Department
staff indicates that private EV charging installation
has been increasing rapidly. The number of private

EV chargers in single family homes is undoubtedly
much higher than the number of public and shared
private chargers in Marin County.

In recent years there has been a rapid proliferation
of Level 3 charging equipment funded by private
companies in commercial developments such as
shopping centers, including Vintage Oaks in Novato,
the Village in Corte Madera, and in Mill Valley. New
business models have emerged to install Level 3
charging on commercial properties with leasing revenues for property owners and fees for consumers.

EV Charging Projections
The availability and accessibility of EV chargers is
a factor in the number of people who switch to EVs.
[12] Publicly accessible EV chargers are needed to
support the growing number of EV drivers, especially for long-distance trips and for drivers that do not have access to private home chargers.

The National Renewable Energy Laboratory and the
CEC have developed a computer simulation tool,
Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Projection (EVI-Pro),
which uses the results of a statewide transportation habits survey to quantify the charging infrastructure needed to ensure that future EV drivers can meet their transportation needs. This analysis
accounts for shifts in vehicle and charging technologies, user demographics, market adoption conditions, and shared use of chargers, as well as travel and charging preferences.

According to EVI-Pro, Marin needs approximately
4,000 charging ports to support the charging needs
of 16,518 EVs by 2025 (914 Level 2 public charging
ports, 600 Level 2 workplace charging ports, 316
Level 3 public charging ports, and up to 2,204
multi-family charging ports). According to the CEC,
there are 551 public and 188 shared private chargers (workplace and multi-family) in Marin County as of March 2022. As shown in Figure 8, the greatest
need is for shared private chargers.

An individual or household’s need for public
charging infrastructure is related to home type, with
EV drivers in single-family homes being much more
likely to have home charging than those in apartments or multi-unit dwellings. Since EV owners tend to live in single-family homes [13], extending the EV
market beyond those living in single-family homes
will require a substantial expansion of EV charging
infrastructure at multi-unit dwellings, workplaces,
and in public spaces.

In Marin County, approximately 27% of housing units
are in multi-unit dwellings. [14] Installing charging
infrastructure has been challenging for this segment of the housing stock, requiring EV owners living in multi-unit dwellings to charge their vehicles at public charging stations or work (if available). In
addition, long distance driving also requires public
charging.

Southern Marin, especially around TAM junction, and in
Mill Valley and Strawberry, where there is a limited supply of existing charging stations. Opportunities along frontage roads next to Highway 101, as well as Miller

The Siting Plan also describes priority locations for
Level 3 fast charging as identified by PG&E’s Electric
Program Investment Charge Program. These general
locations include Terra Linda, downtown San Rafael,
downtown Novato, Sausalito, Point Reyes Station,
Larkspur/Corte Madera, and Mill Valley. Public utilities are coordinating closely with private Level 3 charging installations to support the grid upgrades
for planned improvements.

Most Marin cities and towns prioritize purchasing
and leasing of EVs over internal combustion engine
vehicles for their public fleets, even if the electric
version is more expensive. Several jurisdictions
have transitioned passenger vehicles used for site
inspections, code enforcement, police undercover work, off-site meetings, and commuting to EVs.

However, these types of vehicles typically make up
a small percentage of a municipal fleet. Mission critical and emergency response vehicles and trucks (e.g., police patrol cars) are difficult to convert due to the lack of electric models that can provide the
necessary utility. In addition, some specialized
heavy-duty public works trucks are used and replaced infrequently. As a greater range of EVs become available, most municipalities have policies – written or otherwise – to electrify their fleet. Table 4 lists EVs and e-bikes in the fleets of the various Marin jurisdictions as of the preparation of this Strategy.

Municipal fleets are eligible for a wide range of vehicle rebates from state, regional, and local funding sources. Locally, the Transportation Authority of
Marin (TAM) provides funding and technical assistance for Marin’s public agencies to electrify their fleet. Currently, TAM provides matching rebates for
vehicles that qualify for a rebate from the California Clean Vehicle Rebate Program. MCE and the Bay Area Air Quality Management District also provide
rebates. TAM has prepared a Toolkit for Electric
Vehicles and Charging Infrastructure for Marin public
agencies that provides guidance on incorporating
EVs into fleets and installing charging infrastructure.

EV Charging Stations on
Municipal-Owned Land
Nearly all Marin jurisdictions have installed EV
chargers on land owned by the jurisdiction, as
shown in Table 5. At the time this Strategy was
prepared, several jurisdictions had plans in the
pipeline to install additional chargers. However,
a few jurisdictions have concerns about the cost
effectiveness of installing chargers because the
revenue generated from charging rarely covers the
full cost of installation, subscription fees, electricity, maintenance, and depreciation. Installation costs
for trenching and electrical capacity upgrades can
be prohibitive.

TAM’s Marin County Electric Vehicle Charging
Station Siting Plan provides guidance on siting and
placement principles for EV charging stations. In
2020, TAM prepared an analysis of public parking
lot capacity for EV charging. The study identifies
public parking lots in each jurisdiction, their size
(small, medium, and large), and power availability
based on the observation of nearby streetlights or
overhead powerline. The study identifies far more
capacity than currently utilized.

As discussed above, TAM’s Toolkit for Electric Vehicles and Charging Infrastructure is a great resource Item 3.1 Attachment 1

combined rebates up to $6,500 per charging port,
exceeding typical installation costs for most projects. Air District grants are also available.

EV Charging Pricing Policies
EV charging fees in the local region are varied and
include both time-based and per kWh pricing structures. Examples of local per kWh fees include Tesla at $0.28/kWh, San Rafael School District at $0.23/
kWh, and the City of Belvedere at $0.25/kWh. Timebased EV charging rates vary considerably in Marin, ranging from $0.50/hour to as much $3/hour, which
also reflects different charging levels. Fees charged
by Marin jurisdictions are shown in Table 6.

In order to standardize methodologies used to
determine EV charging rates and provide greater
transparency for consumers, the California Office of
Administrative Law has banned operators of electric vehicle charging stations from charging a timebased fee at Level 2 stations installed after January 1, 2021, and DC Fast Charging stations installed
after January 1, 2023. Public agencies are exempt
from the new rule.

CALGreen Requirements and Reach
Codes in Marin
The California Green Building Standards Code or
“CALGreen” (California Code of Regulations, Title 24,
Part 11) currently requires EV capable spaces for
new residential and non-residential development.
“EV capable” means that electrical panel capacity
must be allocated and conduit installed for a future
Level 2 charger. The property owner would still need
to run wiring from the electrical panel and install
the charger at the parking space. 2022 CALGreen
requirements are as follows for new construction:

Single family, two-family, and townhouses with attached private garages: one EV capable space for each dwelling unit.

Multifamily, hotels and motels: 25% of parking spaces must be EV ready with low power Level 2 receptacles;10% of parking spaces must be EV capable; and 5% of parking spaces in building with 20 or more units must have Level 2 chargers installed. For existing buildings, 10% of new added parking spaces and 10% of altered
spaces must be EV capable.

Non-residential: No EV spaces are required for projects with fewer than 10 parking spaces. Over 10 spaces,
four EV capable spaces are generally required for every 25 parking spaces (i.e., 10-25 spaces require four EV
capable spaces, 26-50 spaces require eight EV capable
spaces, etc.). Over 201 parking spaces, 20% of spaces
must be EV capable. Approximately one-quarter of the
EV capable spaces must have EV chargers (depending
on total number of spaces).

The County of Marin has developed and adopted a
“reach code” that requires EV infrastructure above
the base CALGreen code, including EV ready spaces for all new construction. “EV ready” means that wiring and a receptacle needs to be installed in addition to electrical panel capacity. In this case, ”EV ready” means the resident could simply plug into a
Level 2 charger. In general, the reach code requirements for new construction are as follows:

Single family, two-family, townhomes with private garages, and ADUs with dedicated parking: one EV ready space.

Multifamily: 85% of parking spaces are EV ready with
low power Level 2 receptacles, and the remaining 15%
of parking spaces must have Level 2 EV chargers installed.

Hotels and motels: 35% of the parking spaces must be
EV ready with low power Level 2 receptacles; 10% must
be EV capable; and 10% must have level 2 EV chargers
installed.

Non-residential: 20-50% of parking spaces are EV capable depending on the number of spaces, and 7-33% of parking spaces must have EVSE installed depending
on the number of spaces (same as CALGreen Tier 1).

Item 3.1 Attachment 1
Item 3.1 Attachment 1
295
28 Marin Countywide EV Acceleration Strategy
For renovations of single family, two-family and
townhomes with private garages, an EV ready parking space must be provided if the project is upgrading the main electrical service panel. Multifamily and nonresidential renovations require electrical
capacity to be designated for 20% of onsite parking
spaces to be Level 2 EV ready, if the service panel is
modified. Raceway/conduit must be added for multifamily and nonresidential renovations if the parking lot surface is modified. For more details, see the
County of Marin’s 2022 Green Building Model Reach
Code and Development webpage.

Permit Streamlining
In 2015, the State passed Assembly Bill 1236 with
the objective of providing transparency, certainty, and uniformity in the permitting process for EV charging stations to support the rapid expansion of
EV charging stations. AB 1236 requires all local jurisdictions to adopt an ordinance and checklist that provides an expedited, streamlined process for permits for EV charging stations. In 2020, MCEP vetted a streamlined checklist that is now used by several
jurisdictions. All Marin jurisdictions have adopted a
streamlining ordinance and checklist in compliance
with AB 1236.

Off-grid solar charging.

EV batteries that can be used to power homes and businesses in the event of a power outage. The Ford F-150 Lightning claims it will be able to fully power a home for up to three days on a fully charged battery, and as long as 10 days, if rationing power.

Bidirectional charging which allows electric vehicles
to serve as “batteries on wheels” to send energy back
to the grid and strengthen grid reliability. Emerging
Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) technologies can be used
to power homes and businesses by using the batteries
in electric vehicles when the grid goes down. These
mobile energy sources could also be moved to where
they’re needed most during power outages, like backing
up medical centers, fire stations, and grocery stores.

Energy management tools for chargers that optimize
panel sharing and scheduled charging.

Innovative Charging
Innovative charging solutions offer the potential to
expand access to charging equipment, reduce site
installation costs, and build more resilient communities. Below is a list of several technological advancements and innovative solutions that have the potential to transform the EV charging landscape:

Orange provides a payment management system that
tracks individual energy usage at shared outlets and
chargers, allowing the user to pay the owner for the
electricity used.

Curbside charging on an existing streetlight system
can expand charging access for multi-family neighborhoods, such as a project undertaken by the City of Los Angeles.

Pop-up chargers that rise up from the pavement when
activated remotely using a smartphone app.

Wireless charging that will allow electricity to be transferred from a magnetic coil underneath the pavement to a second magnetic coil fitted to the underside of the vehicle.

Introduction
This Electric Vehicle Strategy is prepared to advance the adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs, or zero emission vehicles) in San Anselmo with the goal of reducing greenhouse gasses from transportation sources. The Town Sustainability Commission prepared this plan in follow up to their recommendation to develop a draft plan, made to the Town Council at a Greenhouse Gas update briefing in 2018. This strategy furthers the Town’s Climate Action Plan Community Mitigation Measure 3.3.C5 “Accelerate Adoption of Electric Vehicles.” Transportation produces the largest percent of greenhouse gas emissions in the Town of San Anselmo. Transportation activities accounted for approximately 55% of San Anselmo’s emissions in 2016. 1In addition, Town government vehicles and Town government employee commuting make up about 26% of the greenhouse gases generated by the Town operations.

The Town can reduce its greenhouse gas emissions significantly by encouraging walking, biking, public transit, carpooling, and use of zero emission vehicles in combination with green power sources.

Figure 1 Town-wide Emissions by Sector 2016
In 2018, Governor Brown issued Executive Order B-48-18 which seeks 5 million zero-emission vehicles in California by 2030.

of July 2018, over 410,000 zero emission vehicles have been sold in California. In 2017, zero emission vehicles constituted 5% of new car sales in California, up from 3.8% in 2016.3 Based on the critical need to act swiftly to combat climate change as noted in recent federal and UN reports, in 2018 the Sustainability Commission recommended the Town Council adopt a goal of increasing the number of electric vehicles in Town from 377 to 3,000 by 20304, which would represent approximately 23% of all vehicles in San Anselmo, an increase from the current total of about 3% (as noted in Table 1 below). This will reduce total emissions by 6,680 metric tons of carbon dioxide annually, about 10% of San Anselmo’s current annual emissions.5 This will also support State goals of 5 million electric vehicles on the road by 2030, as well as Marin County’s aggressive GHG reduction goals as articulated in Drawdown Marin6.

The objectives of this plan are to: 1) to summarize the Town’s current EV infrastructure and policies and 2) to set goals and strategies to increase the use of EVs to further local and state goals for transportation emissions reduction. There are two sets of actions for the Town of San Anselmo. One is to show leadership by replacing Town vehicles with EVs. Second is to take steps to encourage residents and workers in San Anselmo to switch to EVs. Since most of the vehicles in San Anselmo are owned by the residents of San Anselmo, the most effective actions the Town can take are those that will motivate the residents of the Town to lease or buy EVs.

The goals of the EV Strategy are:

1. Increase and accelerate EV use within the Town to achieve 3,000 zero emission vehicles in San Anselmo by 2030.

2. Increase the visibility and awareness of EVs as a preferred transportation option.

3. Make it easier and less expensive to install electric vehicle charging infrastructure in the Town.

4. Advance an efficient distribution of public charging infrastructure that is optimized for future technologies and EV demand.

Brown Jr., Governor’s Interagency Working Group on Zero-Emission Vehicles, September 2018 http://business.ca.gov/Portals/0/ZEV/2018-ZEV-Action-PlanPriorities-Update.pdf 4 3,000 EVs would equal 23% of all fuel type vehicles in Town as of January 1, 2018. 5 Using the following assumptions: 1.) Origin-Destination method to allocate Vehicle Miles Traveled; 2.) Average San Anselmo vehicle was driven about 7,628 miles per year in 2016; 3.) The ZEV fleet in 2025 will be comprised of 65% BEVs and 35% PHEVs, similar to the split reported by the DMV in 2018; 4.) ZEV uses .32 kWh per mile; 5.) 74% of the distance a PHEV drives is electric; 6.) The carbon intensity of electricity is the same as it was in 2016. As electricity gets greener, the emissions reduction will increase over time. This number could be higher if we assume the strategy will also encourage workers and visitors to drive zero emission vehicles to San Anselmo. 6 Drawdown Marin is a community-driven campaign to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and prepare for climate change impacts. https://www.marincounty.org/depts/cd/divisions/sustainability/climate-andadaptation/drawdown-marin Item 3.1 Attachment 2 Item 3.1 Attachment 2

The EV Strategy has an Action Plan that identifies strategies to accomplish each goal. Each strategy will require additional analysis and further actions for implementation. The document sets preliminary timelines to accomplish these goals.

Grant funding and rebates are available to assist the Town and property owners to fund vehicle leases or purchases, charging stations and other strategies. Funding agencies include the Transportation Authority of Marin (TAM);
7 MCE Clean Energy (MCE);8
the Bay Area Air Quality
Management District (BAAQMD);
9 Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E);10 State agencies, such as the California Energy Commission (CEC);
11 and the Federal government.12
Town Progress Accelerating Adoption of Electric Vehicles In April 2011, the Town Council adopted a Climate Action Plan with goals to:
• Purchase or lease low or zero-emissions vehicles and the most fuel-efficient models possible for the Town fleet, including police patrol cars and construction vehicles.
• Increase ownership of plug-in electric vehicles (EV) by providing EV charging station infrastructure, where appropriate, and encouraging property owners and developers to install EV charging stations in commercial and residential projects.

Building and Zoning Regulations
The Town has not adopted any special zoning standards or requirements for EV parking spaces.

The Town has adopted the California Green Building Standards (CALGreen) Code, which includes mandatory provisions for pre-wiring to support the future installation of charging stations. Pre-wiring is when builders provide sufficient basic infrastructure, such as electrical conduits, and adequate electrical panel and circuitry capacity, for future electric vehicle equipment. New single-family homes and duplexes with attached garages must pre-wire for one EV charger. New multi-family developments (17 or more units) must pre-wire 3% of the total parking spaces. Non-residential developments with 10 or more parking spaces must prewire for between 3% and 10% of total parking spaces.

Most construction in the Town is remodels of single-family residences. In 2018, only 5 units were approved that will require EV pre-wiring. None of the approved apartment projects (754 Sir Francis Drake and 1 Lincoln Park) meet the unit threshold to require EV infrastructure under current regulations.

Fleet Integration
Currently, there are no EVs in the Town fleet. In 2019, the Public Works and Building Department will replace one building inspection gasoline vehicle with a leased Nissan Leaf and will be leasing two additional Nissan Leaf electric vehicles for staff use. The Town is considering replacing gasoline engines with electric vehicles in 2 or 3 medium to heavy duty trucks.

Parking Policies
EV drivers have had free parking, within posted limits, since 2011 (Town Council Resolution 3937). The Town currently allows free EV charging at the Town parking lots with pay stations. In order to assist with time limit enforcement, the Town now charges for EV parking at lots with pay stations between 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.

Charging Stations
The Town has issued 12 permits for private electric vehicle charging stations since 2014.

Most permits are issued on the same day as the application for $132, which is the standard cost for an electrical permit. The Town Council eliminated the permit fee for installation of EV charging stations, effective in February 2019.

There are currently 13 publicly accessible charging stations in the Town:
8 Level 2 chargers (4 with double heads) in Town parking lot on Magnolia Ave. 2 DC Fast chargers, United Market, 100 Red Hill Ave.
3 Level 2 chargers, Red Hill Shopping Center, 834-916 Sir Francis Drake Blvd.

Level 1: provides charging through a
standard plug, 120-volt AC plug. Based on
the battery type and vehicle, AC Level 1
charging requires 15-20 amps of service
and adds about 2 to 5 miles of range per
hour of charging time. Level 1 is the
slowest and least-expensive charging
option.

Level 2: provides charging through either
a 240-volt (typical in residential
applications) or 208-volt (typical in
commercial applications) AC plug. Level 2
charging requires 20 to 100 amps of
service (typically 20-40 amps) and adds
about 10 to 25 miles of range per hour of
charging time.

DC Fast Charging: Direct-current (DC) fast
charging equipment, also called Level 3,
requires a dedicated circuit (20-100 amps)
with a 208/480-volt AC three-phase input.

It is the fastest charging option available.

EVs equipped with either a CHAdeMo or
SAEcombo DC fast charge receptacle can
add 50 to 70 miles range in about 20
minutes.

STAFF REPORT
TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO Item #: 3.2
MEETING DATE: June 27, 2023
AGENDA TITLE: Staff Recommendations for Adoption of the Marin Green Building Model Reach Code
FROM: Sean Youra, Climate Action Coordinator
Erica Freeman, Building Official
RECOMMENDATION:

Provide direction to staff as to whether to bring back an ordinance for first reading that incorporates requirements of the County’s model green building reach code with staff recommended additions and revisions.

BACKGROUND
On February 14, 2023, staff presented the background and details of the County’s green building model reach code to the Town Council. The model reach code was developed in collaboration with local jurisdiction staff and stakeholders including community-based organizations, the building community, utilities, Town/City commissions, Town/City councilmembers, and residents.

There are four key features or components of the model reach code that were discussed with the Council at the February 14th meeting. These include:

1. All-electric requirement for new buildings (i.e., residential, multifamily, and commercial)

2. Requirement for additions and alterations of existing single-family residences (projects of 750 square feet or greater) to meet a target energy score

3. Additional requirements for installation of EV charging infrastructure in new construction and additions/alterations that exceed CALGreen requirements

4. Requirement for new construction projects, additions and alterations of singlefamily and multifamily buildings affecting 750 or more square feet, and nonresidential additions and alterations to comply with CALGreen Tier 1 requirements
342
Item #: 3.2
These requirements are summarized in Table 1 of the model reach code based on the building type and whether it is a new construction project or an addition/alteration (Attachment 1).

Staff have thoroughly analyzed the model reach code and compared it to the Town’s existing green building ordinances including Ordinance 1145 adopted on April 28, 2020, and Ordinance 1165 adopted on June 28, 2022. Ordinance 1145 included green building requirements that were nearly identical to the green building requirements adopted by the County in 2019. The requirements amended CALGreen for EV charging infrastructure, applied the CALGreen Tier 1 requirements to new construction and additions/alterations based on a square footage threshold, and included an electricpreferred option for new construction to incentivize all-electric for new construction projects. Ordinance 1165 required all new residential buildings to be all-electric with some exemptions. The differences between San Anselmo’s current green building requirements and the model reach code requirements are detailed in Attachment 2 separated out into new construction, additions/alterations, and EV charging infrastructure requirements.

Staff presented the requirements of the model reach code to the Planning Commission at their February 6, 2023 meeting and received feedback from the members. Staff also presented to the Climate Action Commission (CAC) at their May 8, 2023 meeting to discuss staff recommendations for adoption of the model reach code. The CAC was supportive of the staff recommendations.

On April 17, 2023, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a ruling that the City of Berkeley’s all-electric ordinance was preempted by the Energy Policy Conservation Act (EPCA). As summarized in Attachment 3, the Ninth Circuit reversed a previous district court ruling in concluding that the EPCA preempts state and local governments from regulating the quantity of natural gas used by an appliance at the point of use. San Anselmo’s all-electric ordinance (Ordinance 1165) is similar to that of Berkeley’s ordinance as both were adopted using a Health and Safety justification rather than through an amendment of the California Building Standards Code. Although Berkeley has filed a petition for rehearing en banc (i.e., a rehearing by all judges of the court), the current court decision must be treated as binding authority for all jurisdictions within the Ninth Circuit.

As a result of the Berkeley litigation, staff has since had to revise the recommendations for adoption of the model reach code to ensure that any proposed ordinance would be legally compliant with the Ninth Circuit ruling as it currently stands. These revised recommendations were presented to the CAC at their June 16, 2023 meeting.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Staff recommendations for each component of the model reach code will be discussed in the following sections. It should be noted that any of these requirements could be adopted as a standalone ordinance or could be combined as a single green building ordinance.
343
Item #: 3.2
All-Electric for New Construction
This component of the model reach code requires all-electric for newly constructed buildings including both residential and nonresidential buildings. For comparison, minimum standards under the 2022 California Building Standards Code require new single-family homes to be electric-ready if gas appliances are installed.

The primary difference between this part of the model reach code and San Anselmo Ordinance 1165 is that San Anselmo’s Ordinance only requires all-electric for new residential buildings. The adoption of this part of the model reach code would expand the all-electric requirements to new nonresidential buildings.

When staff first presented the recommendations for adoption of the model reach code to the CAC at their May 8th meeting, the recommendations included adopting the allelectric requirement for all new buildings. In addition, staff recommended that the allelectric requirements cover substantial improvement projects as well starting January 1, 2024 with a project cost exemption threshold if the all-electric costs (including available incentives) were above 15% of the total project costs. Substantial improvements are defined in the California Building Standards Code as “any repair, reconstruction, rehabilitation, alteration, addition, or other improvement of a building or structure, the cost of which equals or exceeds 50 percent of the market value of the structure before the improvement or repair is started. If the structure has sustained substantial damage, any repairs are considered substantial improvement regardless of the actual repair work performed. The term does not, however, include either:

1. Any project for improvement of a building required to correct existing health, sanitary or safety code violations identified by the building official and that are the minimum necessary to assure safe living conditions.

2. Any alteration of a historic structure provided that the alteration will not preclude the structure’s continued designation as a historic structure.” However, due to the Ninth Circuit ruling and the fact that San Anselmo has suspended enforcement of Ordinance 1165 for the time being pending the Ninth Circuit decision on Berkeley’s appeal for rehearing, staff recommends that the all-electric requirements for new buildings and substantial improvements not be adopted at this time. There is a litigation risk to any jurisdiction that has or plans to adopt all-electric requirements for new buildings, especially if the requirements are codified in the Health and Safety section of the municipal code (i.e., a non-building code approach). Therefore, if the Town Council were to adopt this part of the model reach code, it could present a greater risk for litigation.

The final resolution of the Berkeley litigation could take several months or even a year.

In the interim, staff would plan to evaluate potential alternative policy options for decarbonization of new buildings such as imposing an emissions limit for new buildings, which is an approach New York City has taken for buildings over 25,000 square feet.

The Building Decarbonization Coalition, Statewide Reach Codes team, and other 344
Item #: 3.2
organizations are currently evaluating these potential alternative policy options to reduce and/or eliminate emissions from new buildings. If viable alternatives are identified, staff could bring these alternatives to the Council for further discussion.

Flex Compliance Path for Single-Family Additions/Alterations This component of the model reach code amends Part 6 (i.e., the Energy Code) of the 2022 California Building Standards Code and requires existing single-family residences undergoing additions or alterations to implement additional energy efficiency and electrification measures beyond the 2022 California Building Standards Code.

Additional energy savings are achieved through a performance compliance pathway recently developed by the State. The Flexible Compliance Pathway is a points-based system allowing homeowners and contractors to select from a comprehensive menu of energy efficiency and electrification measures that are appropriate for the scope of their project. This requirement applies to single-family additions and alterations affecting 750 or more square feet for homes that were originally permitted for construction before December 31, 2010. The energy efficiency and electrification measures proposed for the single-family additions and alterations have been demonstrated to be cost-effective in modeling studies completed by the Statewide Reach Codes team. In addition, this component of the model reach code requires electrical panel upgrades for any singlefamily building projects to accommodate for future electrification of all appliances.

Exemptions are included based on hardship, infeasibility, income qualification, and other considerations.

It is important to transition existing buildings from the use of fossil fuels in order for the Town to achieve its GHG emissions reduction goal for 2030 (i.e., 54% emissions reduction from 2005 baseline with 32% of total emissions coming from natural gas used in buildings currently). Since the electrification and energy efficiency measures included in Table 2 of the model reach code have already been demonstrated to be cost-effective in modeling studies by the Statewide Reach Codes team, the Town would not have to conduct additional studies and submit them to the California Energy Commission (CEC). County staff involved in the development of the model reach code have confirmed that this part of the model reach code is not impacted by the Ninth Circuit ruling. Additionally, the Flexible Compliance Pathway in the model reach code is aligned with the 2021-2022 Marin County Civil Grand Jury report titled, Electrifying Marin’s Buildings: A Countywide Approach, which included the following recommendation:
“On or before January 1, 2023, Marin County and each of its cities and towns that have not already done so should adopt a reach code requiring energy efficiency measures in connection with renovations of existing residential buildings. The reach code should specify the size of the renovation that will trigger the requirement and provide flexibility by allowing the applicant to choose from a list of energy efficiency measures, including electrification of gas appliances.”
345
Item #: 3.2
For the reasons discussed above, staff recommends that the Flex Compliance Pathway for single-family additions and alterations be included in a building code ordinance for adoption.

EV Charging Infrastructure
This component of the model reach code amends Part 11 (i.e., CALGreen) of the 2022 California Building Standards Code. It requires that all new single-family homes be Level 2 EV Ready, which includes a receptacle to charge a vehicle. This part of the model reach code exceeds the CALGreen provisions for renovations by requiring single-family homes to be Level 2 EV Ready if the project is upgrading the main electrical service panel. It also exceeds CALGreen requirements for new multifamily construction by ensuring 100% of tenant parking spaces have access to EV charging.

Specifically, it requires 15% of the total spaces to have EV charging stations installed and the remaining 85% of spaces to be Low Power Level 2 EV Ready. For both multifamily and nonresidential renovations, the model reach code exceeds CALGreen provisions by requiring designated electrical capacity for 20% of onsite parking spaces to be Level 2 EV Ready if modifying the main electrical service panel. Additionally, for multifamily and nonresidential renovations that modify the parking lot surface, either conduit must be added to a minimum of 50% of exposed parking spaces, or a minimum 5% EV charging stations must be installed to parking spaces requiring any combination of Level 2 and Direct Current Fast Charging EV Supply Equipment (EVSE) and 20% of exposed parking spaces must have conduit added.

The differences between the Town’s current EV charging infrastructure requirements and the model reach code requirements are detailed in Attachment 2 separated out by building type.

Although adding more EV charging infrastructure beyond what the California Building Standards Code requires represents an added cost, those costs are small relative to the overall construction costs (estimated to be less than 0.5% in the Bay Area depending on the level of charging provided). Additionally, adding EV charging infrastructure during new construction is approximately four times less costly compared to a retrofit scenario.

Developers and property managers also see EV charging infrastructure as a valueadded amenity, especially in a car market that is rapidly transitioning to electric.

Based on a cost analysis that County staff conducted in collaboration with MidPeninsula Housing (Mid Pen), an affordable housing developer, of various EV charging policy options, the 15% EVCS/85% EV Ready option for new multifamily buildings was the most cost-effective while also providing 100% accessibility with optimized charging speeds. MidPen’s base design standards are all-electric with EV charging infrastructure as they no longer develop mixed-fuel buildings. This seems to be the trend amongst developers in the Bay Area especially when they can reduce upfront costs by taking advantage of PG&E’s EV Electric Rule 29, installing automatic load management systems (ALMS), and applying for applicable rebates from MCE and other agencies. 346
Item #: 3.2
Furthermore, developers can easily recoup charging sessions by installing app-enabled charging receptacles such as Orange or Plugzio.

The 2022 California Building Standards Code misses the opportunity to maximize this moment when parking lot surfaces and/or service panels are upgraded. By requiring the installation of EV charging infrastructure at time of parking lot upgrades, developers can fully benefit from construction savings and install valuable amenities for their occupants.

For the reasons discussed above, staff recommends that the EV charging infrastructure requirements in the model reach code be included in the building code amendment except for the separate EV charging infrastructure requirements for new hotels and motels. Since there is only one hotel in San Anselmo and there are not likely to be permit applications for new hotels or motels in the foreseeable future, staff believes that adding separate requirements for this building type is unnecessary and would complicate the building code further. Furthermore, the Town’s current EV charging infrastructure requirements do not include separate requirements for hotels or motels.

CALGreen
This last component of the model reach code amends Part 11 (i.e., CALGreen) of the 2022 California Building Standards Code. It requires all new construction, additions and alterations affecting 750 or more square feet of existing single-family and multifamily buildings, and nonresidential additions and alterations to comply with CALGreen Tier 1 provisions except for the EV charging infrastructure provisions discussed in the previous section.

San Anselmo has historically adopted CALGreen Tier 1 requirements including for the 2022 California Buildings Standards Code adoption. As detailed in Attachment 2, the Town’s current building code requires residential additions and alterations affecting 1,200 or more sq. ft. to meet CALGreen Tier 1 requirements. The model reach code sets this threshold lower to 750 sq. ft. This ensures more of these projects are covered by the CALGreen requirements, which will result in greater emissions reductions as well as improved water efficiency, material conservation, and indoor environmental quality for these projects.

Staff recommends that the CALGreen requirements in the model reach code be included in the building code amendment as well.

Furthermore, staff recommends including an additional requirement for new multifamily construction to install long-term bike parking per CALGreen Section A4.106.9.2. The specific requirements include:

1. Providing on-site bike parking for at least one bike per every two dwelling units

2. Providing bike parking facilities that can include either covered, lockable enclosures with permanently anchored racks for bikes or lockable bike rooms with permanently anchored racks.
347
Item #: 3.2
Per AB 2863 which was adopted last year, the next update of the California Building Standards Code will require some amount of short- and long-term bike parking in multifamily buildings along with hotels and motels. The Town has an opportunity to improve both EV charging access and bike storage access through a building code update ahead of the implementation of AB 2863, which can support renters transitioning to EVs or using bikes/e-bikes as an alternative transportation mode.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact to the Town to discuss the model reach code.

GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
The model reach code is consistent with the Town’s General Plan including the conservation goals in the Conservation Element.

CEQA AND CLIMATE ACTION PLAN CONSISTENCY
The Council’s discussion of the model reach code 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 indirect physical change in the environment (Cal. Pub. Res. Code § 21065).

The model reach code is consistent with some of the measures in the Town’s Climate Action Plan including:
 E-4: Green Building Reach Code: Investigate adopting a green building ordinance for new and remodeled commercial and residential projects that requires green building methods and energy efficiency savings above the State building and energy codes. Consider utilizing the County's green building ordinance as a model and including the use of photovoltaic systems and allelectric building systems as options to achieve compliance.  R-3: Building and Appliance Electrification: Promote electrification of building systems and appliances that currently use natural gas, including heating systems, hot water heaters, stoves, and clothes dryers.

1014 19.04.150 Incentives for compliance.
1015 In addition to the required standards for compliance, the Board of Supervisors may 1016 establish by resolution, financial or application processing incentives and/or award or 1017 recognition programs to encourage higher levels of green building compliance for a 1018 project.
1019 19.04.160 Administrative procedures.
1020 The procedures for compliance with the provisions of this chapter shall include, but 1021 not be limited to the following:
1022 (a) Project design. Applicants for a covered project are strongly encouraged to 1023 involve a qualified green building rater in the initial design phases of the project 1024 in advance of submittal of an application to determine applicable green building 1025 compliance thresholds and the most cost effective and appropriate means of 1026 achieving compliance.
1027 (b) Planning applications. If a discretionary planning application is required for a 1028 covered project, applicants should be prepared to identify expected green 1029 building measures to be included in the project to achieve the compliance 1030 thresholds. Applicants should identify any anticipated difficulties in achieving 1031 compliance and any exemptions from the requirements of this chapter that may 1032 be requested.
1033 (c) Building plan check review. Upon submittal of an application for a building 1034 permit, building plans for any covered project shall include a green building 1035 program description and completed checklist. The checklist shall be Item 3.2 Attachment 1
Item 3.2 Attachment 1
382
1036 incorporated onto a separate full-sized plan sheet included with the building 1037 plans. Evidence that the project, as indicated by the project plans and green 1038 building program description, will achieve the standards for compliance 1039 outlined in Section 19.04.140, shall be provided prior to issuance of a building 1040 permit.
1041 (d) Changes during construction. During the construction process, alternate green 1042 building measures may be substituted, provided that documentation of the 1043 proposed change and the project's continued ability to achieve the standards 1044 for compliance to the chief building official shall be provided. 1045 (e) Final building inspection. Prior to final building inspection and occupancy for 1046 any covered project, evidence that project construction has achieved the 1047 required compliance set forth in the standards for compliance outlined in 1048 Section 19.04.140 shall be provided. The chief building official shall review the 1049 documentation submitted by the applicant and determine whether the project 1050 has achieved the compliance threshold as set forth in the standards for 1051 compliance outlined in Section 19.04.140. If the chief building official 1052 determines that the applicant has met these requirements, the final building 1053 inspection may proceed.
1054 (f) Conflict with other laws. The provisions of this chapter are intended to be in 1055 addition to and not in conflict with other laws, regulations and ordinances 1056 relating to building construction and site development. If any provision of this 1057 chapter conflicts with any duly adopted and valid statutes or regulations of the 1058 federal government or the state of California, the federal or state statutes or 1059 regulations shall take precedence.
1060 19.04.170 Exemptions.
1061 (a) The provisions of this chapter shall not apply to:
1062 (1) Buildings which are temporary (such as construction trailers). 1063 (2) Building area which is not or is not intended to be conditioned space. 1064 (3) Any requirements of this chapter which would impair the historic integrity 1065 of any building listed on a local, state or federal register of historic 1066 structures, as determined by the chief building official and as regulated by 1067 the California Historic Building Code (Title 24, Part 8). In making such a 1068 determination, the chief building official may require the submittal of an 1069 evaluation by an architectural historian or similar expert. 1070 (b) As outlined in the 2022 CALGreen code, section 4.106.4 and A5.106.5, 1071 applicants may be exempted from the electric vehicle changing requirements 1072 on a case-by-case basis where the local enforcing agency has determined EV 1073 charging and infrastructure are not feasible based upon one or more of the 1074 following conditions:
1075 (1) Where there is no commercial power supply or the local utility is unable to 1076 supply adequate power.

Item 3.2 Attachment 1
Item 3.2 Attachment 1
383
1077 (2) Where there is evidence suitable to the local enforcing agency 1078 substantiating that additional local utility infrastructure design 1079 requirements, directly related to the implementation of section 4.106.4 and 1080 A5.106.5 may adversely impact the construction cost of the project. 1081 (3) ADUs and JADUs without additional parking facilities. 1082 (4) Parking spaces accessible only by automated mechanical car parking 1083 systems are not required to comply with CALGreen Code section 4.106.4 1084 and A5.106.5
1085 (c) Hardship or infeasibility exemption. If an applicant for a covered project 1086 believes that circumstances exist that make it a hardship or infeasible to meet 1087 the requirements of this chapter, the applicant may request an exemption as 1088 set forth below. In applying for an exemption, the burden is on the applicant to 1089 show hardship or infeasibility.
1090 (1) Application. Based on the following, the applicant shall identify in writing 1091 the specific requirements of the standards for compliance that the project 1092 is unable to achieve and the circumstances that make it a hardship or 1093 infeasible for the project to comply with this chapter. The applicant may 1094 not petition for relief from any requirement of the 2022 California Energy 1095 Code (Title 24, Part 6) and referenced standards, or the 2022 California 1096 Green Building Standards (Title 24, Part 11) of the California Building 1097 Standards Code. Circumstances that constitute hardship or infeasibility 1098 shall include one of the following:
1099 a. That the cost of achieving compliance is disproportionate to the 1100 overall cost of the project;
1101 b. That strict compliance with these standards would create or maintain 1102 a hazardous condition(s) and present a life safety risk to the 1103 occupants.
1104 (2) Granting of exemption. If the chief building official determines that it is a 1105 hardship or infeasible for the applicant to fully meet the requirements of 1106 this chapter and that granting the requested exemption will not cause the 1107 building to fail to comply with the 2022 California Energy Code (Title 24, 1108 Part 6) and referenced standards, or the 2022 California Green Building 1109 Standards (Title 24, Part 11) of the California Building Standards Code, 1110 the chief building official shall determine the maximum feasible threshold 1111 of compliance reasonably achievable for the project. In making this 1112 determination, the chief building official shall consider whether alternate, 1113 practical means of achieving the objectives of this chapter can be 1114 satisfied, such as reducing comparable energy use at an off-site location 1115 within the county. If an exemption is granted, the applicant shall be 1116 required to comply with this chapter in all other respects and shall be 1117 required to achieve the threshold of compliance determined to be 1118 achievable by the chief building official.

Item 3.2 Attachment 1
Item 3.2 Attachment 1
384
1119 (3) Denial of exception. If the chief building official determines that it is 1120 reasonably possible for the applicant to fully meet the requirements of this 1121 chapter, the request shall be denied, and the applicant shall be notified of 1122 the decision in writing. The project and compliance documentation shall be 1123 modified to comply with the standards for compliance. 1124 (4) Appeal. Any aggrieved applicant or person may appeal the determination 1125 of the chief building official regarding the granting or denial of an 1126 exemption or compliance with any other provision of this chapter. An 1127 appeal of a determination of the chief building official shall be filed in 1128 writing and processed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1129 19.04.028 of this code.

9th Circuit Berkeley Gas Ban Decision 2023
Information and Resources for Local Governments
The Facts:
● Bare Bones Chronology (more detailed one in this article):
○ Berkeley adopted ordinance prohibiting installation of natural gas piping within newly constructed building
○ California Restaurant Association sued
○ District Court dismissed the case
○ CRA appealed
○ 9th Circuit panel reversed district court decision
○ Berkeley:
■ Has 14 days to decide if they want to appeal
■ Has not received a stay or injunction and is still enforcing their ordinance as of 4/27/23 (per statement here)
● Points & excerpts from the 9th Circuit panel’s decision:
○ Held that CRA has standing to bring the suit
○ Held that Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA) preempts the Berkeley ordinance
○ “The panel held that, by its plain text and structure, the Act’s preemption provision encompasses building codes that regulate natural gas use by covered products.” (p. 3)
■ “And by preventing such appliances from using natural gas, the new Berkeley building code does exactly that.” (p. 7)
○ “EPCA’s preemption clause establishes that, once a federal energy conservation standard becomes effective for a covered product, ‘no State regulation concerning the energy efficiency, energy use, or water use of such covered product shall be effective with respect to such product.’” (p. 12) ■ “EPCA defines ‘energy use’ as ‘the quantity of energy directly consumed by a consumer product at point of use.’” (p. 12)
■ By prohibiting natural gas infrastructure, Berkeley would set the “quantity” of energy use by a covered appliance to zero, so it regulates quantity (pp. 13-14)
○ “Put simply, by enacting EPCA, Congress ensured that States and localities could not prevent consumers from using covered products in their homes, kitchens, and businesses. So EPCA preemption extends to regulations that address the products themselves and the on-site infrastructure for their use of natural gas.” (p. 15)
○ “... Berkeley may enforce its building code on non-covered products…” p. 19 Item 3.2 Attachment 3
Item 3.2 Attachment 3
390
○ “Our holding doesn’t touch on whether the City has any obligation to maintain or expand the availability of a utility’s delivery of gas to meters.” p. 22 ○ “EPCA would no doubt preempt an ordinance that directly prohibits the use of covered natural gas appliances in new buildings.” p.23
Some other related government actions:
● San Francisco City Attorney’s office said their ordinance is different and they will continue to enforce
● City of San Luis Obispo put their ordinance on hold and are currently not enforcing it ● City of Brisbane has paused enforcement of electric requirements, per city attorney direction
● BAAQMD attorney said they are reviewing the ruling relative to adopted amendments to Rules 9-4 and 9-6 but their authority is different
● Other cities are still moving ahead with enforcement and even adoption of a new ordinance

● EPCA’s seven requirements to avoid federal preemption (Section 6297(f)(1)-(3) – code does preempt if it:
○ “Permits a builder to…select items whose combined energy efficiency” meet an overall building energy target;
○ Does not specifically require any EPCA-covered appliance to exceed federal standards
○ Offers options for compliance, including an appliance that exceeds federal standards, on a “one-for-one equivalent energy use or equivalent cost basis” ○ Bases any baseline building design used by the code on a building with covered products that do not exceed federal standards
○ Offers at least one “optional combination of items” that does not exceed federal standards for any covered appliance;
○ Frames any energy target as a total for the building; and ○ Uses EPCA-specified test procedures for determining the energy consumption of covered products
Excerpt from EPCA:
§6297. Effect on other law
(a) Preemption of testing and labeling requirements
(b) General rule of preemption for energy conservation standards before Federal standard becomes effective for product
(c) General rule of preemption for energy conservation standards when Federal standard becomes effective for product
(d) Waiver of Federal preemption
(e) Exception for certain State procurement standards
(f) Exception for certain building code requirements
(1) A regulation or other requirement enacted or prescribed before January 8, 1987, that is contained in a State or local building code for new construction concerning the energy efficiency or energy use of a covered product is not superseded by this part until the effective date of the energy conservation standard established in or prescribed under section 6295 of this title for such covered product.
(2) A regulation or other requirement, or revision thereof, enacted or prescribed on or after January 8, 1987, that is contained in a State or local building code for new construction concerning the energy efficiency or energy use of a covered product is not superseded by this part until the effective date of the energy conservation standard established in or prescribed under section 6295 of this title for such covered product if the code does not require that the energy efficiency of such covered product exceed—
Item 3.2 Attachment 3
Item 3.2 Attachment 3
392
(A) the applicable minimum efficiency requirement in a national voluntary consensus standard; or
(B) the minimum energy efficiency level in a regulation or other requirement of the State meeting the requirements of subsection (b)(1) or (b)(5), whichever is higher. (3) Effective on the effective date of an energy conservation standard for a covered product established in or prescribed under section 6295 of this title, a regulation or other requirement contained in a State or local building code for new construction concerning the energy efficiency or energy use of such covered product is not superseded by this part if the code complies with all of the following requirements:
(A) The code permits a builder to meet an energy consumption or conservation objective for a building by selecting items whose combined energy efficiencies meet the objective. (B) The code does not require that the covered product have an energy efficiency exceeding the applicable energy conservation standard established in or prescribed under section 6295 of this title, except that the required efficiency may exceed such standard up to the level required by a regulation of that State for which the Secretary has issued a rule granting a waiver under subsection (d).
(C) The credit to the energy consumption or conservation objective allowed by the code for installing covered products having energy efficiencies exceeding such energy conservation standard established in or prescribed under section 6295 of this title or the efficiency level required in a State regulation referred to in subparagraph (B) is on a one-for-one equivalent energy use or equivalent cost basis.
(D) If the code uses one or more baseline building designs against which all submitted building designs are to be evaluated and such baseline building designs contain a covered product subject to an energy conservation standard established in or prescribed under section 6295 of this title, the baseline building designs are based on the efficiency level for such covered product which meets but does not exceed such standard or the efficiency level required by a regulation of that State for which the Secretary has issued a rule granting a waiver under subsection (d).
(E) If the code sets forth one or more optional combinations of items which meet the energy consumption or conservation objective, for every combination which includes a covered product the efficiency of which exceeds either standard or level referred to in subparagraph (D), there also shall be at least one combination which includes such covered product the efficiency of which does not exceed such standard or level by more than 5 percent, except that at least one combination shall include such covered product the efficiency of which meets but does not exceed such standard.
(F) The energy consumption or conservation objective is specified in terms of an estimated total consumption of energy (which may be calculated from energy loss- or gain-based codes) utilizing an equivalent amount of energy (which may be specified in units of energy or its equivalent cost).
(G) The estimated energy use of any covered product permitted or required in the code, or used in calculating the objective, is determined using the applicable test procedures prescribed under section 6293 of this title, except that the State may permit the estimated energy use calculation to be adjusted to reflect the conditions of the areas where the code is Item 3.2 Attachment 3
Item 3.2 Attachment 3
393
being applied if such adjustment is based on the use of the applicable test procedures prescribed under section 6293 of this title or other technically accurate documented procedure.
(4)(A) Subject to subparagraph (B), a State or local government is not required to submit a petition to the Secretary in order to enforce or apply its building code or to establish that the code meets the conditions set forth in this subsection. (B) If a building code requires the installation of covered products with efficiencies exceeding both the applicable Federal standard established in or prescribed under section 6295 of this title and the applicable standard of such State, if any, that has been granted a waiver under subsection (d), such requirement of the building code shall not be applicable unless the Secretary has granted a waiver for such requirement under subsection (d).

NINTH CIRCUIT COURT RULING
▪ The California Restaurant Association (CRA) sued
Berkeley in federal court over adoption of their 2019
ordinance banning fuel gas piping in new buildings
▪ CRA argued that the ordinance was preempted by the
federal Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA) and by California law (the Building Standards Code and the Energy Code)
▪ Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a previous
district court decision, concluding that EPCA preempts states and local governments from regulating the quantity of natural gas used by an
appliance at the point of use
▪ By requiring a quantity of “zero” natural gas at the point of use, Berkeley’s ordinance regulated the “energy use” of appliances and therefore was preempted
▪ Although Berkeley has filed a petition for rehearing
en banc (i.e., a rehearing by all judges of the court), the current court decision must be treated as binding authority for all jurisdictions within the Ninth Circuit
▪ Some jurisdictions are continuing to enforce their all- electric ordinances and others have paused enforcement Item 3.2 Attachment 4

To: Town Council Members
From: Susannah Saunders
As you will hear from Christine O’Rourke’s presentation with the TAM funded EV acceleration plan, there are very specific things we can do to get more people driving electric vehicles. One of which is to adopt an EV charging infrastructure reach code. Town staff will be recommending tonight that San Anselmo adopt Marin County’s EV charging reach code.

There is a great need for one. We have a long way to go to get to all electric vehicles in San Anselmo. Currently only 6.5% of cars in San Anselmo are electric, 2.9% are plug in hybrid, and over 90% are gas or gas/hybrid. That means we are breathing polluted air and our main source of emissions has the upper hand.

According to the EV acceleration plan, “Since EV owners tend to live in single-family homes, extending the EV market beyond those living in single-family homes will require a substantial expansion of EV charging infrastructure at multi-unit dwellings, workplaces, and in public spaces.” In order to increase the number of EV owners and make sure the transition is equitable I hope you will pass this reach code.

It is particularly effective for increasing the number of chargers for Multi family housing. It requires 85% of parking spaces are EV ready with low power Level 2 receptacles, and the remaining 15% of parking spaces must have Level 2 EV chargers installed. This requirement was thoroughly researched by Marin County and town staff. Many developments came together to make them feel these requirements would not pose an undue burden on developers.

1. PG&E will be responsible for paying for the infrastructure from source of electricity to the meter.

2. PG&E approved the use of a submeter so the tenant can be billed for the electricity they use to charge. This eliminates the need for expensive wiring to each individual 416
charging unit.

3. MCE EV Charging infrastructure rebate program,

4. In addition, developers and property managers can reduce their net-operatingincome by a) eliminating the need to trench in an EV future scenario, and b) recoup charging session costs via orange or plugzio type smart plugs. (This allows for developers to skip the submeter and separate electricity used for charging with simple boxes that fit over an outlet.)
Flex Compliance Path for Single-Family Additions/Alterations creates another opportunity to lower emissions and toxic fumes from natural gas. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) means this pathway will not produce financial hardship for owners. Installing a heat pump for space heating and cooling is one way to comply.

The IRA gives $8000 towards the purchase and a $2000 tax credit, Electrify Marin has a $1000 rebate, and BayREN has a $400 rebate. This is just one of the many ways to comply.

Finally, I want to say that increasing the climate action fund just makes sense. Half of this money will be reimbursed through grants and incentive programs. It will allow the town to continue to be an innovator and leader with a streetlight EV charging pilot, and installation of critically needed bike lockers. People are much more likely to bike to town, school, or work if they have a secure place to store these expensive purchases.

I want to thank the town staff for their hard work researching and vetting the EV charging infrastructure reach code, the flex compliance path, and the other work they do to mitigate and adapt to climate change. They were the ones who had to deal with fallen trees and collapsed roads during the recent atmospheric river events. They have done an outstanding job and I applaud them and the town council for their hard work.

STAFF REPORT
TOWN OF SAN ANSELMO Item #: 3.3
MEETING DATE: June 27, 2023
AGENDA TITLE: Age Friendly Committee - Age and Disability Planning Grant Overview
FROM: Dannielle Mauk, Director of Community Services
RECOMMENDATION: That Town Council Review and Endorse the Age Friendly Committee, Age and Disability Planning Grant Project.

BACKGROUND
In 2019 the Recreation Department applied to the AARP Network of Age-Friendly Communities, an affiliate of the World Health Organization’s Age-Friendly Cities and Communities Program to become an age-friendly community. The Age Friendly San Anselmo initiative began when AARP formally accepted San Anselmo into the network of Age-Friendly communities and the Age-Friendly committee was formed.

This was the beginning of a five-year AARP planning and implementation process.

In 2020, we completed an assessment of the needs of residents 60 years and older and presented it to the Town Council in February 2020. In response to the COVID pandemic, staff, the committee, and residents sprang into action and created emergency resources and support programs based on immediate community needs.

The committee and staff have been working on a comprehensive action plan while providing services to our community. However, after conversations with new community partners we decided that it would be more inclusive to submit a plan that was both age and disability friendly.

The Recreation department and the San Anselmo Age Friendly committee partnered with The Marin Aging and Disability Institute (MADI) to apply for a California Department of Aging, Age and Disability Planning grant. The grant aligns with California’s visionary Master Plan for Aging and our state’s commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility.
419
Item #: 3.3
The grant program aims to improve community livability and address the current, emerging, and future needs of California's older adults, people with disabilities, and caregivers through cross-sector collaboration and transformational systems. San Anselmo was selected from a large statewide applicant pool to be one of 15 grant recipients. We are listed on the State’s website with the other winning communities.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
This grant launches a first-of-its-kind Age and Disability Friendly Plan in one community, San Anselmo, that will create a distinctive and innovative template for other communities to emulate across Marin County and beyond. To ensure the Disability component of this plan is inclusive, responsive, and informed by specialized expertise, this work will be spearheaded by the Marin Aging and Disability Institute (MADI).

MADI emphasizes the importance of collaborative, creative solutions to address the intersectional needs of Marin County’s older adults and disabled population. MADI’s mission brings aging and disability stakeholders together to advance equity and improve lives through advocacy, collaboration, and innovation. MADI was founded as a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization in 2018 when Vivalon and Marin Center for Independent Living (Marin CIL) acquired assets belonging to a former Marin nonprofit organization.

The grant will provide us the capacity to develop community ageism and ableism education and to build full community engagement and participation in the assessment and development of the San Anselmo’s Aging and Disability Friendly Action Plan. As in the previous age-friendly planning the participants will look at ten possible domains for strategic actions from housing to emergency preparedness and social connection to address the unique challenges faced by San Anselmo’s older adult population, the disability community, and its caregivers and supporters. By actively engaging multiple stakeholders and residents the planning process can develop a more inclusive, sustainable, and accessible community with the potential benefits of improved livability, enhanced social cohesion, and the creation of a supportive environment for all residents. This new plan will be accepted by the AARP and World Health Organization (WHO) in lieu of the former Age Friendly Plan.

States, counties and communities across the nation are integrating aging and disability in their planning and organizational structures.

San Anselmo is part of an international, national, and county equity-centered strategic planning movement and will lead the way in designing the roadmap and the tools for communities to become accessible and disability inclusive. Most of the Age- Friendly leaders in the other 11 municipalities are interested in integrating the age and disability planning and will consider using our model. 420

RFA: Local Aging and Disability Action Planning Grant Program Dear Department of Aging,
On behalf of the Town of San Anselmo, I am pleased to offer this letter of support to our ongoing effort toward creating an inclusive, livable community and recognize the importance of encouraging and implementing age and disability‐friendly planning and policies that will promote independent and purposeful living, support active, healthy lifestyles and sustain economic and social vitality.

The Town of San Anselmo will continue to support our Age‐Friendly committee and will work with Marin Aging and Disability Institute (MADI) in completing the assessment and planning processes needed to develop our age‐ and disability‐friendly action plan. We intend to continue our town planning to meet the needs of the changing demographics, improve our town’s livability, and support our goals of being an inclusive and equitable community. We will continue to strive to enhance the current initiatives and the relationships already established in our small town that serve our older residents and their families and caregivers, people of diverse age groups and cultural differences, and people with disabilities. With the help of the Age‐Friendly committee, we will also look for new ways to foster acceptance of human differences, and human vulnerability and to support the interdependence of older adults, and people with disabilities whether visible or invisible.

We are committed to sharing our age and disability‐friendly planning process and practices with the eight other age‐friendly municipalities, with other towns and cities, and with the County of Marin through our partnership with MADI in order that others may follow us in advancing their own age and disability‐friendly planning.
