APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT BY AND BETWEEN THE CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE AND EWING

CONSULTING TO PROVIDE SERVICES FOR A CLASSIFICATION AND COMPENSATION STUDY

FOR FULL-TIME CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE EMPLOYEES
Fiscal Impact:

There are sufficient funds in account number 001-171-43690 for the contract amount of $79,600.

Summary:

Staff recommends that City Council approve and authorize the City Manager to execute a contract by and between the City of San Clemente and Ewing Consulting, a San Clemente-based firm, to provide for a Classification and Compensation Study for full-time City of San Clemente employees (Attachment 2) in the amount of $79,600.

Background:

On November 2, 2021, the City Council approved the 2021-2024 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of San Clemente and the San Clemente City Employees Association (SCCEA) for full-time benefitted San Clemente employees. The MOU includes a provision for the City to commence a classification and compensation study in fiscal year 2022-2023 and implement the classification and compensation study recommendations at the discretion of the City Council.

Discussion:

The City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) on September 7, 2022. Proposals were due on October 5, 2022. The RFP was open to firms proposing to complete a classification and compensation study for part-time employees, full-time employees, or both. The City awarded a separate contract for part-time employees in November 2022 to address the immediate challenges hiring hourly part-time employees and because of the shorter timeframe and smaller scope of the part-time study. Staff anticipates presenting the results of the part-time classification and compensation study to City Council in February 2023.

Five firms submitted proposals for the full-time classification and compensation study. The firms and proposal amounts are shown in Attachment 1. City staff invited all five firms to participate in interviews; four firms participated. Interview were conducted by the Human Resources Manager, the Assistant to the City Manager, and the SCCEA President. Staff evaluated the consultants on the criteria for selection factors in the City’s policy and procedure for selection of professional contractors and selected local firm, Ewing Consultants, to conduct the full-time classification and compensation study.

Meeting Date: 1/17/2023 Agenda Item: L.

The firm has more than 30 years of experience providing human resources and management consulting services, including extensive experience providing classification and compensation studies. Ewing Consultants completed the same or similar work for Capistrano Unified School District, Torrance Unified School District, and Rowland Unified School District. Ewing Consulting proposed in-person meetings and employees sessions; in-person meetings are likely important to San Clemente employees. Ewing Consulting was the lowest bidder and the firm has the availability to complete the project in the shortest timeframe proposed by the responsive firms interviewed.

Plan and Policy Consistency:

City staff conducted the proposal process consistent with City Policy and Procedure 201-2-3 in that staff posted the RFP on PlanetBids to solicit at least five firms, staff interviewed at least three firms, and at least two staff conducted the interviews.

Council Strategy:

The action is consistent with Council Strategy 4 - Improve and maintain strong staff recruitment and retention strategy to attract and keep the best and most qualified staff - in that the action supports a project that will assess whether the City’s pay is similar with other agencies.

Recommended Actions:

Staff Recommendation
Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute contract by and between the City of San Clemente and Ewing Consulting to provide for a Classification and Compensation Study for full-time City of San Clemente employees in the amount of $79,600.

Alternatives
The Council could direct staff to execute a contract with a different consulting firm and appropriate additional funds from the unassigned fund balance into account number 001-171-43690.

City of San Clemente Classification and Compensation Scope of Work Schedule

1. Initiation of Study- Meeting with the key HR people to discuss options in terms of methods to roll out the study to all participants. We suggest including a representative from your technology/ support department to be sure that our Position Information Questionnaire (PIQ) and other communications to all employees can be supported by your system. We will discuss the PIQ with your team and determine whether online form or paper form would be expected to complete the form and then submit it to their immediate supervisor for input and approval.

That submittal can be done using Microsoft or Google Forms or by using a paper form process. In addition, we propose that employees be invited to an orientation session where we describe the steps involved in the study and describe how each person will participate. Perhaps we could offer 3 or 4 dates and employees can come to any session to hear about the study and ask their questions. These orientation sessions are 45 minutes in length and could be used to distribute and review the PIQ. ● Since the PIQ’s will be reviewed by the supervisors, we suggest that one of the sessions include supervisors to explain how the review should be done.
● We give employees 2 weeks to complete the form and the supervisors have 2 weeks to review the PIQ forms.
● If the City wishes to use an advisory committee to follow study progress and provide input to the process, it will be advisable to hold a meeting of the Committee (4 - 5
people) would be advisory only and would not provide
oversight of the project.

In addition, Consultant shall not allow any subconsultant to commence work on any subcontract until it has provided evidence satisfactory to the City that the subconsultant has secured all insurance required under this section.

3.2.12.2 Types of Insurance Required.

If coverage is written on a claims-made basis, the retroactive date shall precede the effective date of the initial Agreement and continuous coverage will be maintained or an extended reporting period will be exercised for a period of at least three (3) years from termination or expiration of this Agreement.

3.2.12.3 Insurance Endorsements. Required insurance policies shall contain the following provisions, or Consultant shall provide endorsements on forms approved by the City to add the following provisions to the insurance policies:

(1) Additional Insured: The City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds with regard to liability and defense of suits or claims arising out of the performance of the Agreement.

Additional Insured Endorsements shall not (1) be
restricted to "ongoing operations"; (2) exclude "contractual liability"; (3) restrict coverage to "sole" liability of Consultant; or (4) contain any other exclusions contrary to the terms or purposes of this Agreement. For all policies of Commercial General Liability insurance, Consultant shall provide endorsements in the form of ISO CG 20 10 10 01 (or endorsements providing the exact same coverage) to effectuate this requirement.
(2) Cancellation: Required insurance policies shall not be canceled or the coverage reduced until a thirty (30) day written notice of cancellation has been served upon the City except ten (10) days shall be allowed for non-payment of premium. (B) Automobile Liability:
(1) Cancellation: Required insurance policies shall not be canceled or the coverage reduced until a thirty (30) day written notice of cancellation has been served upon the City except ten (10) days shall be allowed for non-payment of premium.

Policies shall contain or be endorsed to contain such provisions.

3.2.12.7 Waiver of Subrogation. All policies of Commercial General Liability and Automobile Liability insurance shall specifically allow Consultant or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss.

ATTACHMENT 2
343

3.2.12.8 Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductible or selfinsured retention greater than $5,000 must be approved in writing by the City and shall protect the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers in the same manner and to the same extent as they would have been protected had the policy or policies not contained a deductible or self-insured retention.

3.2.12.9 Evidence of Insurance. The Consultant, concurrently with the execution of the Agreement, and as a condition precedent to the effectiveness thereof, shall deliver either certified copies of the required policies, or original certificates on forms approved by the City, together with all endorsements affecting each policy. Required insurance policies shall not be in compliance if they include any limiting provision or endorsement that has not been submitted to the City for approval.

At least fifteen (15 days) prior to the expiration of any such policy, evidence of insurance showing that such insurance coverage has been renewed or extended shall be filed with the City. If such coverage is cancelled or reduced and not replaced immediately so as to avoid a lapse in the required coverage, Consultant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such cancellation or reduction of coverage, file with the City evidence of insurance showing that the required insurance has been reinstated or has been provided through another insurance company or companies.

3.2.12.10 Failure to Maintain Coverage. In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these specifications or is canceled and not replaced immediately so as to avoid a lapse in the required coverage, City has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by City will be promptly reimbursed by Consultant or City will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from Consultant payments. In the alternative, City may cancel this Agreement effective upon notice.

3.2.12.11 Acceptability of Insurers. Each such policy shall be from a company or companies with a current A.M. Best's rating of no less than A- VII and authorized to transact business of insurance in the State of California, or otherwise allowed to place insurance through surplus line brokers under applicable provisions of the California Insurance Code or any federal law.

3.2.12.12 Enforcement of Agreement Provisions (non estoppel).

Consultant acknowledges and agrees that actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Consultant of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligation on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

3.2.12.13 Requirements Not Limiting. Requirement of specific coverage or minimum limits contained in this Appendix are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits, or other requirement, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance.

3.2.12.14 Insurance for Subconsultants. Consultant shall include all subconsultants engaged in any work for Consultant relating to this Agreement as additional insureds under the Consultant's policies, or the Consultant shall be responsible for causing subconsultants to purchase the appropriate insurance in compliance with the terms of these Insurance Requirements, including adding the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers as additional insureds to the subconsultant's policies. All policies of Commercial General Liability insurance provided by Consultant’s subconsultants performing work relating to this Agreement shall be endorsed to name the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents and ATTACHMENT 2
344
volunteers as additional insureds using endorsement form ISO CG 20 38 04 13 or an endorsement providing equivalent coverage.

The Consultant shall provide satisfactory evidence of compliance with this section upon request of the City.

CONLEY HEARING ON APPEAL OF ADMINISTRATIVE ENCROACHMENT PERMIT E22-0112 Fiscal Impact:

None
Summary:

Staff recommends that City Council affirm the revocation of Administrative Encroachment Permit (AEP) E22-0112. San Clemente Municipal Code (SCMC) Section 12.20.020 governs the application and approval authority of Encroachment Permits for private improvements constructed within the street right-of-way. The decisions of the Public Works Director may be appealed to the City Council per SCMC 17.12.140. Staff’s revocation of the Conley AEP resulted from the receipt of another AEP application from their neighbor whose property is directly abutting and adjacent to the subject street right-of-way area.

The Conleys, residents of 4055 Via Manzana in San Clemente, have informed staff that they have been maintaining the city right-of-way in front of 27001 Paseo Activo in San Juan Capistrano for approximately 30 years. The City limit runs between the properties and a majority of 27001 Paseo Activo is within the City of San Juan Capistrano (see Attachment 1). The Conleys were issued an Administrative Encroachment Permit (AEP) by San Clemente staff in May 2022 (Attachment 2) to continue maintaining this parkway with the understanding that the permit could be revoked if their neighbors (Irions), who live at 27001 Paseo Activo, utilized or needed access to their property located on the other side of the easement. The Irions subsequently applied to the City of San Clemente for an AEP in August 2022 to maintain this area and to construct a border wall in the city right-of-way.

The Irion’s application was partially approved in October 2022. This partial approval would allow retaining walls, landscaping and lights in the public right-of-way area, but not in the area of the Conley improvements. The Irions then resubmitted their application in October 2022 to include all of the original request in addition to the construction of a pergola and privacy walls on their property in San Juan Capistrano. The application also included a building permit for the privacy wall issued from the City of San Juan Capistrano. The Irion AEP application was tentatively approved by San Clemente staff on November 15, requiring revocation of the Conley’s previous (revocable) AEP on the same day (Attachment 3).

On December 6, 2022, City Council directed staff to agendize the summary of the process for the December 20, 2022 City Council meeting. At that December 20, 2022 meeting, City Council received and filed staff’s summary report.

Meeting Date: 1/17/2023 Agenda Item: B.

Background:

Staff has been involved with this issue for over a year. Below is a timeline of key events:
· November 30, 2021 - Staff met with the Conleys on site to assess the issue (the Irions were present).
· December 9, 2021 - After review of the City’s Municipal Code and the State Streets and Highway Code, staff determined that the maintenance of the City right-of-way should be with the neighboring property owner (the Irions).
· January 2022 - The Irions removed landscaping.
· May 2022 - The Conleys formally applied for and were awarded an AEP (E22-0112) to maintain the right-of-way area with the understanding that the Irions would be allowed access to their property through this area in the future if needed and the permit may be revoked at any time.
· August 1, 2022 - The Irions submitted an AEP application to install walls within the city right-of-way, landscaping, lights, etc. up to the Conley’s property line. · September 22, 2022 - The Irion’s application was partially approved with the exception of the right-of-way walls in the area of the Conley’s existing permit. · October 4, 2022 - Staff met with the Irions to discuss the permit application. · October 26, 2022 - The Irions resubmitted their AEP application with a copy of a building permit from San Juan Capistrano (dated 10/24/22) to build a privacy wall on their property. They requested also to install walls within the city right-of-way, landscaping, lights, etc. up to the Conley’s property line. The associated pergola is proposed to be less than 120 square feet therefore it does not require a building permit from San Juan Capistrano.
· November 15, 2022 - The Irion’s permit was verbally approved and the Conleys were notified in writing that their permit was being revoked giving them 3 weeks to remove landscaping from the area per the signed AEP.
· November 24, 2022 - The Conleys sent an email requesting an appeal of revocation of AEP.
· December 6, 2022 - City Council requested staff return with a summary of the revocation of the Conley AEP.
· December 12, 2022 - After staff consultation with the City Attorney, the Conley’s were notified of the appeal fee and requirements for providing public notice documents. · December 19, 2022 - The Conley’s paid the appeal fee and provided the necessary public notice documents.
· December 20, 2022 - City Council received and filed staff’s report on a summary of the Conley AEP and revocation of the permit.
· Per Municipal Code 17.12.140, a public hearing on an appeal shall be held within 60 days of the receipt of an appeal application.

Discussion:

The City of San Clemente Municipal Code (SCMC) states under Chapter 12.24 “Maintenance, CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE Page 2 of 4 Printed on 1/11/2023
powered by Legistar™366
Meeting Date: 1/17/2023 Agenda Item: B.

The City of San Clemente Municipal Code (SCMC) states under Chapter 12.24 “Maintenance, Repair, Protection and Landscaping of Public Property by Abutting Property Owners” and subsection

12.24.020A that “the owner of any property fronting on or adjacent to any portion of a street, sidewalk, bikeway, trail or parkway shall perform landscape maintenance on any and all trees, shrubs, hedges and/or ground cover (excluding street trees) on his or her property including any portion of such a tree, shrub, hedge or ground cover which encroaches into the street, sidewalk, bikeway, trail or parkway.”
The Street and Highways Code of California also states in Chapter 22, Section 5610 that “the owners of lots or portions of lots fronting on any portion of a public street or place when that street or place is improved or if and when the area between the property line of the adjacent property and the street line is maintained as a park or parking strip, shall maintain any sidewalk in such condition that the sidewalk will not endanger persons or property and maintain it in a condition which will not interfere with the public convenience in the use of those works or areas save and except as to those conditions created or maintained in, upon, along, or in connection with such sidewalk by any person other than the owner, under and by virtue of any permit or right granted to him by law or by the city authorities in charge thereof, and such persons shall be under a like duty in relation thereto.” The term “sidewalk” includes a park or parking strip maintained in the area between the property line and the street line and also includes curbing, bulkheads, retaining walls or other works for the protection of any sidewalk or of any such park or parking strip.

According to the Conley’s Notice of Appeal (Attachment 4), the grounds of the appeal are related to the matter of the Irions residing in San Juan Capistrano, and that there is no need for the 3 foot walkway to access the Irion’s property. There is also mention of the Irions potentially planning an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or another structure in the area.

The Administrative Encroachment Permit (Attachment 2) executed by the City and the Conleys states that the “City reserves the right to allow and permit future modifications to the City Property at any time and for any reason. Said modifications to the City Property may result from, among other things, the issuance of an encroachment permit to another party and/or activities by City, another government agency or public utility, or any other party allowed by City to obtain access to inspect and/or maintain, repair, replace, or add other facilities or improvements within the City Property.” Per the executed agreement, and as per City and State codes, staff revoked the Conley’s AEP (Attachment 3) upon receipt of an AEP application from the Irions whose property is directly abutting and adjacent to the subject area of street right-of-way.

Plan and Policy Consistency:

The action is consistent with the following General Plan Goals and Policies:
· G-1.08. Consistency in Staff Recommendations. We require that staff recommendations be consistent with adopted City policies and plans and state and federal law.

Meeting Date: 1/17/2023 Agenda Item: A.

Department: City Manager
Prepared By: Jonathan Lightfoot, Economic Development Officer Subject:

Consideration of Pilot “Green Line” Trolley Route
Fiscal Impact:

The City Council has previously authorized a supplemental appropriation of $59,230 to account # 021 -808-43690 (Other Professional Services) for continued weekend Trolley operations between January and March of 2023 on the red line and $34,000 for two trolleys on a pilot route for up to 12 weeks prior to Memorial Day weekend.

Summary:

Staff recommends that a pilot route connect to a stop that is shared or near to the Red Line. The two busiest stops on the Red Line route are at the San Clemente Outlets and at the San Clemente Pier.

Staff has provided two alternatives for consideration: an inland route linked to the Outlets (Attachment 2) and a southern route linked to the Pier (Attachment 3).

Background:

At its December 20, 2022 regular business meeting, the City Council authorized an extension of the trolley operations contract with LAZ for the 2023 season, adding Saturday and Sunday service on the red line for January through March and approving a pilot route for the two Blue Line trolleys, which would otherwise be out of service until Memorial Day weekend. The Council asked staff to return with example routes for consideration at their regular meeting on January 17, 2023.

Discussion:

To maximize the effectiveness of the temporary pilot route (“Green Line”), staff recommends that either it connect to the Red Line’s Pier or Outlets stop, which are the two busiest loading points for the Trolley and have access to public parking. The existing red and blue line routes are shown in Attachment 1.

Timeframe. Staff recommends that the pilot “Green Line” operate from Saturday, March 11 until Sunday, May 21, 2023. The following weekend, Memorial Day weekend, the trollies will return to their regularly scheduled Blue Line route as required by the City’s Measure V Grant Agreement with OCTA. Staff recommends a target driving time of 25 minutes for the pilot route. With two trolleys operating, this would keep headways between 15-20 minutes at each stop, consistent with the wait times at the Red Line stops.

Inland Route. The proposed inland route, shown in Attachment 2, would begin at the Outlets with loading at the same location normally used to service the Blue Line during the summer. Staff recommends the following stops:

CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE Page 1 of 3 Printed on 1/10/2023
powered by Legistar™395
Meeting Date: 1/17/2023 Agenda Item: A.
· Marblehead Inland Park
· Vista Hermosa Sports Park
· Plaza Pacifica
· Rancho San Clemente Park
· Outlets at San Clemente
These stops were selected because of their proximity to shopping, parking, recreation, and accessibility to inland neighborhoods, including Marblehead, Forster Ranch, Talega, and Rancho San Clemente. This route has a projected drive time of 26 minutes. With operations limited to Saturday and Sunday, staff does not recommend stops in the business parks or at the high school, which are mostly vacant on those days. Other nearby stops that staff considered include the Talega Village Center, Richard T. Steed Park, and the Gateway Village Plaza (near the high school). They were removed, however, to maintain the desired 15-20 minute headways along the route.

Southern Route. The southern route, shown in Attachment 3, would begin in the Pier Bowl and proceed in a loop to the south with stops at or near the following locations:
· Dorothy Visser Senior Center
· Ralph’s / Zebra House Coffee
· S. El Camino Real / Ramona (near America’s Best Value Inn and Surfbreak Hotel) · S. El Camino Real / Magdalena Off Ramp (near Travelodge and Calafia Inn) · San Clemente Inn / Raya’s Paradise
· San Clemente State Beach (Calafia)
· Ola Vista at Valencia
· T-Street Beach Access
· Pier Bowl
These stops were selected because they provide additional public beach access and access to other visitor serving locations, such as hotels along South El Camino Real and the State Park campground off Avenida Calafia. This route has a projected drive time of 23 minutes. There is public parking at the Pier, T-Street, and near the Dorothy Visser Senior Center; however, the other stops would predominately be on-street stops that are near commercial areas that have restricted private parking.

Other stops considered by staff include the Riviera Beach access and the San Clemente Municipal Golf Course.

Plan and Policy Consistency:

The project is consistent with the following General Plan Goals and Policies:
· Mobility and Complete Streets Element Goal: Create a comprehensive, multimodal transportation system that provides all users with safe connections to homes, commercial centers, job centers, schools, community centers, open spaces, recreation areas and visitor destinations.
· Policy M-2.08. Transit Service. We support the maintenance of existing bus service and encourage transit service enhancements by OCTA to ensure all residents have access to adequate and safe transit.
· Policy M-2.32. Grant Funding. We pursue Federal, State, County, regional and other funding opportunities to increase bicycle and pedestrian mode share percentages, improve transportation system performance, and to improve air quality through a balanced, multi-modal CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE Page 2 of 3 Printed on 1/10/2023
powered by Legistar™396
Meeting Date: 1/17/2023 Agenda Item: A.
transportation system performance, and to improve air quality through a balanced, multi-modal transportation system.
· Policy M-4.03. Automobile Parking Demand. We reduce automobile parking demand by improving public transit, bicycle and pedestrian mobility, particularly to and from our key destination areas.

In addition, the action is consistent with the following goal of the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan in that the City’s Trolley program provides links to shopping, dining, and recreation opportunities while also connecting to significant pedestrian facilities such as the San Clemente Coastal Trail. · Goal 4: Cycling and walking are encouraged though improvements that support smart growth, public transit, lowered greenhouse gas emissions and healthy lifestyles.

Council Strategy:

The action is consistent with Council Strategy 2 - Grow resident confidence and value in City services and operations - in that it would expand an effective and popular service for visitors and tourists that provides convenient access to popular destinations in the City while relieving demand for parking in these areas.

Recommended Actions:

Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council:

1. Establish the operating timeframe of March 11 through May 21, 2023 on Saturdays and Sundays for the pilot “Green Line” Trolley; and

2. Direct staff to pursue the inland route or the southern route for the pilot “Green Line” Trolley; and

3. Direct city staff to collaborate with LAZ to establish the precise curb locations and signage for the temporary pilot route.

APPOINTMENT OF ANDY HALL AS CITY MANAGER
Fiscal Impact:

Yes. There are salary and benefit costs of the compensation package described in the City Manager’s employment agreement. There are sufficient funds in this year’s adopted budget to fully absorb the recommended compensation.

Summary:

After conducting a far-reaching recruitment, including interviewing those applicants deemed most deserving of serious consideration, the City Council has identified Mr. Andy Hall as the preferred candidate to serve as the City of San Clemente’s next City Manager. Following December 22, 2022 interviews, councilmembers present appointed Mayor Duncan and Mayor Pro Tem Knoblock to work with the recruiter, Bob Hall, to negotiate an employment agreement with Mr. Hall. The resulting negotiated agreement is presented here for approval.

Background:

San Clemente City Manager Erik Sund resigned effective September 9, 2022. Shortly thereafter, a recruitment firm was retained to fill the vacancy and to seek an individual to serve as Interim City Manager until a full-time successor is appointed.

Following City Council interviews with the most qualified candidates and reference checks and a background investigation of the candidate deemed most qualified by the four Councilmembers available to conduct interviews, it has been determined that the City Council wishes to retain the services of Mr. Andy Hall to serve as San Clemente’s next City Manager. A full background check has been completed, confirming Mr. Hall’s credentials, corroborating references, and otherwise validating his good character and outstanding qualifications.

This item is presented as an opportunity for the Council to consider and approve those terms and employment agreement negotiated with Andy Hall. Mr. Hall has indicated his willingness to accept this appointment on the terms contained in the attached agreement.

Mr. Hall has served as city manager in three agencies for an aggregate of 20 years, including the past nearly ten years as city manager of Imperial Beach, CA. The Mayor and City Council were seeking an individual who would set an example for the organization for his accessibility and responsiveness to the community. Andy places great value on leading municipal organizations to optimize their connection to the community they serve and on the professional development of the critically important human infrastructure that comprises the organizations operating under his inspired CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE Page 1 of 2 Printed on 1/12/2023

Objective and Personal Statement:

As the City Manager in San Clemente, I will provide the appropriate balance of technical and interpersonal skills necessary to effectively implement the direction of the Mayor and City Council in a manner that is supported by the community and correctly interpreted by the professional staff. In addition to two decades as a City Manager, I also have experience as a Community Development Director and land use planner. These abilities together with a solid educational base result in the unique qualifications and skill set needed to successfully manage such a dynamic community and organization.

Specific Skills for Desired Position:
 More than 20 years as a City Manager and additional experience as an Assistant City Manager  Six years as a Community/Economic Development Director and Planning Manager  Expertise in all aspects of government management, finance, and community and economic development  Significant experience and excellent relationship with the Military, Coastal Commission, and Regional Agencies  Experience creating and modifying personnel policies, compensation plans and employee coaching/mentoring  International City Management Association since 1998, American Institute of Certified Planners since 1996 Employment Experience:

City of Imperial Beach (California) 2013 – Present
City Manager
Imperial Beach is the most southwesterly coastal community in the United States with the United States/Mexican border on the south, the City of Coronado on the north, the City of San Diego on the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west. Imperial Beach is a complex community located adjacent to an international border requiring advanced communication skills to address international relations and security, and significant water quality concerns. The City is home to portions of Naval Base Coronado which is both located in and immediately adjacent to the City. There are two wildlife refuges in or adjacent to the City as well as the Tijuana River National Estuary. Imperial Beach is also one of the five member cities of the Unified Port of San Diego.

The most important challenge facing the community is maintaining the “Classic Southern California” atmosphere identified in the City’s Mission Statement, while experiencing a dramatic shift in the demographic and income level of the community. Imperial Beach has had the highest percentage increase in housing valuation in San Diego County in each of the past 5 years. The City Council, during annual City Manager evaluations, has noted success in connecting with the community, providing solid fiscal information and forecasts, maintaining a great relationship with employees, and creating a positive working environment.

As the City Manager my primary responsibilities include working with the elected officials to prepare policies to address the needs of the community and once adopted to implement the policies of the City Council. Preparation of the municipal budget, resolutions, ordinances, and other documents for consideration and adoption by the City Council create an orderly and predictable course where success is measurable by residents, the elected officials, and our professional staff.

Achievements:
 Transformation of the City’s finances from being scrutinized by a Grand Jury investigation just before my arrival into a model for fiscal management with zero findings in the most recent independent financial audit  Consistent and measurable increase in municipal revenue, while consistently coming in under budget  Restoring trust with residents and businesses through effective community outreach and engagement  Improving relationships and trust with employees and their representatives  Achieving one of the lowest crime rates in San Diego County  Maintaining a solid relationship and level of trust with the elected officials in the community 411

City of Cathedral City (California) 2009 – 2013
City Manager (2013), Community Development Director (2009-2012) Cathedral City is a community of approximately 60,000 strategically located between the resort city of Palm Springs and the affluent city of Rancho Mirage in the Coachella Valley in Southern California. The city was incorporated in 1981, but much of the built environment pre-dates incorporation and infill development and revitalization are important activities in the community. Because the city was incorporated after the passage of Proposition 13, commercial development and particularly the generation of sales tax is a high priority. With the support of the City Council, and working with a great team, the City experienced an increase in commercial activity and sales tax revenue during my tenure, despite challenging economic conditions.

As the Community Development Director, I was tasked with helping the City transition from having a robust Redevelopment Agency to the dissolution of Redevelopment Agencies by the State of California. Upon the retirement of the City Manager, I was appointed to the position of City Manager. I left Cathedral City when presented with the opportunity to manage a coastal community, which was a long-term professional goal.

Achievements:
 Significant reduction in the amount of vacant retail space in the community  Measurable increase in sales tax revenue and business retention  Formation of active and effective business clusters to act as support groups for business owners  Adoption of several updates and improvements to the development ordinances and policies of the City  Effective linking of what were previously independent divisions (Building, Business License, Engineering, and Planning) into a cohesive and comprehensive Community Development Department  Gained the support and trust of the elected officials allowing a more predictable and efficient development process to be implemented in the community
Draper City (Utah) 2008-2009
Assistant City Manager
Draper City is a community of nearly 50,000 and for the past twenty years has been one of the fastest growing communities in Utah. Located about 15 miles south of Salt Lake City, Draper is an upscale community known for attractive foothill development, a strong commercial tax base, recreational facilities, and efficient delivery of municipal services. I was invited to join the Draper City team by the City Manager who is a close colleague that needed a trusted assistant to reconnect with staff members and update the emergency management plan. Of note, I was the emergency manager during one of the largest wildfires to ever occur in the community. In addition to the devastating fires, the mudslides in the burned areas were very challenging. This experience was an important learning experience that has helped me address the unanticipated impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic.

I moved on from Draper when a group of employees approached the City Council seeking to have me replace the current City Manager. While honored, I felt that would be a betrayal of the colleague that had asked me to join the team. Rather than remain in an uncomfortable position for all involved, I sought other employment opportunities closer to family in Southern California. I remain a close associate with my colleague, many employees, and the elected officials in Draper.

Achievements:
 Completion of a new fire station, oversight of design and construction of a new city amphitheater and the construction of a new justice center
 Comprehensive update of the Draper City Emergency Management Plan, creation of the Emergency Operations Center, and the purchase of a mobile Emergency Operations Center in a high fire risk area  Effective response to major fire and subsequent mudslide event including activation of Emergency Operations Center and purchases necessary to properly operate the Emergency Operations Center  Adoption of several modifications to the Draper City Personnel Policies 412

City of Henderson (Nevada) 2007 - 2008
Planning Manager
Henderson is a community of just over 300,000 and consistently one of the fastest growing communities in the United States. It is known for its recreational opportunities and its excellence in land use planning. The Community Development Department has won numerous national awards for its development code, the design of the community’s master planned communities, and for open space, trails and recreation plans. As the Planning Manager I was tasked with oversight of the City’s green building initiatives, representing the City on the Southern Nevada Regional Planning Coalition and preparation of the City’s long range planning documents.

My time in Henderson was very enjoyable and productive but occurred at the beginning of a significant nationwide economic downturn. At the time the City was asking for voluntary separations, I was fortunate to be invited to join the management team as the Assistant City Manager in Draper, Utah.

Achievements:
 Oversight in the creation of the West Henderson Comprehensive Plan  Developed the Legacy Program for green building and sustainable development practices  Initiated a comprehensive update of the Henderson Development Code  Oversight in the creation of the Boulder Highway Investment Strategy Payson City Corporation (Utah) 1996-2007
City Manager (Nine Years)
Community Development Director (Two Years)
Payson City more than doubled in size during my tenure as City Manager (from less than 10,000 residents to almost 20,000 residents). The community is a full-service City providing community and economic development, library services, police, fire, parks and recreation, and senior services as well as enterprise-fund based activities including both drinking and irrigation water, sewer and reclaimed water, electric power generation and distribution, sanitation, stormwater, cemetery, and a municipal golf course. After serving for two years as the City’s Community Development Director, I was asked to serve as the City Manager.

After nearly a decade of serving as the City Manager, I accepted a position with the City of Henderson to become a Planning Manager for a much larger organization. I learned that I prefer to work in smaller organizations and in smaller cities where you can build personal and professional relationships with elected officials, residents and mostly every member of the staff. I make every attempt to have a relationship with each member of the staff and help them to have a clear understanding of the vision and goals of the City. This is an impossible task in larger organizations.

Achievements:
 Transformed a negative general fund balance of approximately $200,000 left by the previous administration into a $5,000,000 (maximum allowed by state statute) positive fund balance through conservative fiscal practices and prudent financial practices
 Created new revenue sources for the City through an aggressive economic development strategy that resulted in an increase of more than 500% in sales tax revenue over a 9 year period  Prepared development ordinances for adoption by the City Council to address growth which are now used as model ordinances for many municipalities
 Decreased the City’s portion of the property tax rate for nine consecutive years  Increased the utility funds balances from zero to more than $2,500,000 while holding rates essentially static during my 9 year tenure
 Created a loyal, stable work force through trust and implementation of effective leadership techniques  Established and maintained a positive working relationship with all elected officials, developers, the media and representatives of other organizations
 Obtained consistent support from citizenry even with controversial projects 413

Other Relevant Experience:

County Planner – Summit County (Park City), Utah (1990-1992) Upon graduation from Arizona State University, I accepted a position as a County Planner for Summit County, Utah.

The Park City area is a year around resort community located approximately 20 miles east of Salt Lake City and was home to the 2002 Winter Olympic Games. My duties included land use planning for a wide variety of housing products from multi-million dollar homes to inclusive resort employee housing together with commercial and manufacturing projects. A highlight was participation in the adoption of the Snyderville Basin General Plan working with renowned land use attorney Robert Freilich.

Mountainland Association of Governments (1992-1996)
As a Community Planner for the Mountainland Association of Governments, I was asked to provide land use planning assistance to 34 cities and 3 counties in Central Utah (Summit, Utah and Wasatch Counties). This opportunity gave me the opportunity to learn from a variety of development ordinances in several jurisdictions.

More importantly, I was able to learn how to navigate various political structures and situations and learn how to work with a wide variety of elected officials with different goals and points of view.

Education:
 Master of Public Administration with High Honors, University of Utah  Bachelor of Science, Geography-Urban Studies, Arizona State University  American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP) Certified Professional Affiliations:

International City/County Management Association since 1998 American Planning Association since 1992
American Institute of Certified Planners since 1993
Notes of Interest:

Among my professional honors, I served as gubernatorial appointee to the award winning Envision Utah Committee (appointed by former Governor and former United States Health and Human Services Director, Michael Leavitt), Chair of the Education Committee of the Utah Chapter of the American Planning Association, member of the Coachella Valley Economic Partnership Board and Chair of the San Diego County City Managers Association.

I have been fortunate to experience tremendous support from the public, employees, and the elected officials in each of my previous employment opportunities. I share a positive relationship with nearly all co-workers and elected officials and truly enjoy working to make great communities even better.

I have been married for thirty-five years to my wife Stephanie. She is college Psychology instructor and has been fully supportive of my career and the sacrifices of time and privacy that occur in local government. I have two children, both happily married, and two grandsons. I enjoy golf (more than my handicap would indicate) and most other sporting events.

RECONSIDERATION OF THE CONTRACT AWARD FOR THE DESIGN OF RICHARD T. STEED

MEMORIAL SPORTS PARK PICKLEBALL COURTS
Fiscal Impact:

Yes. The consultant’s design and construction support costs of $404,550 are within the approved project budget of $494,000 from the General Fund, Richard T. Steed Park (“Steed Park”) Pickleball Courts, CIP Project No. 13703. Funding for the construction of at least four pickleball courts has been identified and is available in the Park Acquisition and Development Fund ($2M) and General Fund ($1M). Additional funding strategies for the complete park development project are considered in the discussion section of this report (see “Phasing and Funding Strategies”).

Background:

On March 2, 2021, the City Council awarded a contract to landscape architect firm SWA to update five site-specific park master plans for Bonito Canyon Park, Linda Lane Park, Richard T. Steed Memorial Park, San Gorgonio Park, and San Luis Rey Park. In April 2021, SWA and the Beaches, Parks and Recreation Department released a public survey to obtain feedback on how these parks should most ideally be improved. Following the survey, public workshops were held on May 11 and May 13, 2021, offering community members an opportunity to provide additional comments directly to SWA and City staff regarding desired park amenities.

On September 2, 2021, the Beaches, Parks and Recreation Commission provided comments on the first draft conceptual designs of the site-specific park master plan documents which included the addition of 8-10 pickleball courts at San Gorgonio Park to be located near the freeway. This draft did not incorporate pickleball facilities at Steed Park.

On September 22 and 23, 2021, SWA and staff hosted on-site park open houses to gather additional feedback and answer questions regarding the first draft conceptual designs. During the San Gorgonio Park open house, participants expressed a need for more pickleball courts to be included based on existing demand while others voiced a want for pickleball to be removed from this site altogether. On October 21, 2021, a public forum was held at the Community Center as an additional opportunity for the public to comment and ask questions regarding the first draft conceptual designs.

On December 14, 2021, the Beaches, Parks & Recreation Commission reviewed the second draft of the master plan documents (Attachment 3) which incorporated the addition of 16 new pickleball courts at Steed Park and four pickleball courts at San Gorgonio (relocated near the freeway) based on feedback from the public during the open houses and public forum.

Meeting Date: 1/17/2023 Agenda Item: B.

On December 21, 2021, the City Council considered a staff report that included the review of the master plan conceptual design updates for San Gorgonio Park and Steed Park. At this meeting, Council directed staff to incorporate the site-specific master plan updates to San Gorgonio Park and Steed Park related to pickleball improvements into the FY 2022-23 CIP Budget and to prioritize the construction of at least four pickleball courts at Steed Park (Attachment 1 - Location Map) before any other park construction projects.

During the FY 2022-23 Budget Workshop on May 25, 2022, the addition of pickleball courts was determined by the Council to be a high priority Capital Improvement Program (CIP) project for the upcoming year, with funding included in the FY 2022-23 budget (Attachment 2). The construction funding was to be incorporated into the FY 2023-24 Annual Budget once more was known about the estimated project cost.

On June 7, 2022, the City Council approved a contract with UltraSystems Environmental, Inc. for the preparation of the environmental analysis (California Environmental Quality Act, “CEQA”) for the Steed Park proposed master plan design. This study began in July 2022 and is expected to be completed in Spring 2023. Upon completion of the analysis, staff would bring the final environmental study and park design to the City Council for consideration and adoption.

At the same June 2022 meeting, the City Council received and filed an administrative report regarding the continuation of pickleball at San Gorgonio Park. This report included the second draft of the conceptual master plan designs for Steed Park and San Gorgonio Park.

In September 2022, staff issued a Request for Proposals (“RFP”) for design and construction management of the proposed master plan pickleball court facility at Steed Park. The five proposals were received in response to the RFP from consultants ranging in price from $345,245 to $463,480.

A staff panel interviewed the top candidates. The following criteria were taken into consideration during evaluations: 1.) technical expertise/methods/approach; 2.) staff qualifications; 3.) delivery schedule and quality control; 4.) expense; and 5.) proposal organization. RJM Design Group was identified as the most qualified bidder ($404,550) based on the breadth of the firm’s experience designing similar pickleball facilities and the range of disciplines represented by the staff involved in the project.

On November 15, 2022, the City Council approved a Professional Consultant Services Agreement with RJM Design Group, Inc. in the amount of $404,550 for the project design, preparation of a construction bid package, and construction support services for a new pickleball complex at Richard T. Steed Memorial Park, the scope of which is described below. The contract approved at that time had not yet been executed. This matter returns to you this evening pursuant to a motion of Councilmember James, with a second and a third.

Discussion:

The RJM Design Group's scope of work includes the design of multiple features in the park, including 16 pickleball courts, a courtside plaza area with shade structures, a restroom building, an additional 100 parking spaces near the courts, a new sidewalk/pathway to the parking lot, and new landscaping, irrigation, lighting, and fencing around the project area. Procuring the design documents before a construction contract allows the City to more definitively identify the full scope of construction of park improvements and to determine alternative construction phases tailored to available funding. Designing the complete scope at the outset allows for more holistic park planning CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE Page 2 of 5 Printed on 1/12/2023 powered by Legistar™417
Meeting Date: 1/17/2023 Agenda Item: B.
available funding. Designing the complete scope at the outset allows for more holistic park planning and is more cost effective than designing the park improvements in phases. It also positions the City to be more successful as the City seeks potential grant funding and/or public-private partnerships and licensing opportunities. The scope of work subject to the proposed contract before the City Council includes multiple disciplines associated with project design, including:
· Civil Engineering
o Field research and provide a geotechnical report
o Aerial survey and preparation of base map
o Precise grading plan for site improvements
o Water/sewer plan for both domestic and recycled water service o Erosion control plan
o Horizontal control plan
o Hydrology/hydraulics report
o Water quality management plan
· Structural Engineering
o Structural calculations, plans, and details for the court plaza area improvements o Post-tension slab design and details
· Electrical Engineering
o Site electrical plan for all improvements
o Lighting photometric calculations to identify required light levels for safety and competition playability
o Light fixture details, lighting controls, and single-line electrical diagrams · Landscape Architecture
o Construction plans and details outlining all landscape materials to be installed o Irrigation system design with connections to the existing irrigation control system and the use of recycled water
· Bid and Construction Support Services
o Prepare bid documents Material submittal and shop drawing review o Response to RFI’s
o Field review and inspections during the construction phase Phasing and Funding Strategies
Designing the park improvements before a construction contract is awarded allows the City to identify the full cost of contemplated improvements, opportunities to phase construction, and funding options (e.g. donations, grants, local funding). It is proposed that the initial phase of construction would include at least four pickleball courts and corresponding access improvements for accessibility to, and parking at, the site. During the FY 2022-23 CIP process, $3M was forecast from the Park Acquisition and Development Fund and General Fund to support the initial buildout of at least four pickleball courts, per Council direction.

Through the conceptual design, SWA provided rough estimates on the anticipated construction costs to complete each of the original five master plan updates. Staff will have a better idea of the cost of CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE Page 3 of 5 Printed on 1/12/2023
powered by Legistar™418
Meeting Date: 1/17/2023 Agenda Item: B.
to complete each of the original five master plan updates. Staff will have a better idea of the cost of each amenity when design work is completed and an itemized construction estimate is provided.

Funding for the estimated construction costs for all improvements at Steed Park have not been fully identified. However, staff recommends Steed Park Master Plan, as it is ultimately adopted, be constructed in phases. If a phased approach is desired by the City Council, staff would pursue funding for subsequent phases of construction from state and federal grants, private-public partnerships, corporate sponsorship, and community fundraising efforts. Traditionally, projects that are “shovel-ready” are more competitive when seeking funding. A final funding strategy would be presented when the Steed Park Master Plan is completed in Spring 2023.

Plan and Policy Consistency:

It is important to note that the general pursuit of bolstering the City’s inventory of a growing recreational activity is presented in the context of relevant policy objectives identified in the City’s General Plan. To whit, the project, as it is further defined by the City Council, is consistent with the following General Plan Goals and Policies:
• Beaches, Parks and Recreation Element Goal: Park and Recreation Planning, Acquisition, and Development. Provide and maintain parks and recreation facilities with adequate spaces and amenities to meet the recreational and relaxation needs of existing and future residents. [Emphasis added]
• BPR-1.01. Programming. We program our parks and other recreation facilities for efficient and creative uses, consistent with the type of facility, user groups served and community needs, and with the Beaches, Parks and Recreation Master Plan.

• BPR-1.03. Tracking Needs and Interests. We track City recreation programs in terms of participation, customer satisfaction, and changing needs to identify recreational programming priorities needs, and interests. [Emphasis added]
• BPR-2.04. Master Plan. We focus parkland acquisition and development efforts in accordance with the Beaches, Parks and Recreation Master Plan and with the Master Plan for City Facilities • BPR-2.02.

RE: Project No. 13703 Steed Park Pickleball Courts
Dear Mr. Ilkhanipour:

We are pleased to submit this proposal for professional Landscape Architectural services for the Steed Park Pickleball Courts project. We understand the scope of work outlined in the RFP and are familiar with pickleball court projects that deliver a unique and exciting experience for everyone in the community.

We have assembled our design team of highly qualified and experienced licensed professionals who will provide comprehensive, well thought out design, efficient and precise construction documentation, and attentive construction administration throughout the life of the project. Our specialized experience in pickleball court development projects is demonstrated in our extensive history working with various communities across southern California and collaborating with ambassadors from the USAPA to rehabilitate facilities into new pickleball courts, develop court overlays, and design completely new sports parks with new pickleball courts.

Our proposal addresses the scope of work outlined by the city in the RFP. Through close coordination, regular team meetings, and careful design evaluation RJM will deliver the highest quality product in a timely and professional manner.

We look forward to working with the City of San Clemente on this exciting project. If you have any questions or comments after reviewing this proposal, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Sincerely,
RJM Design Group

Consideration shall be given to availability of materials, equipment and labor, construction sequencing and scheduling, economic analysis of construction, user safety and maintenance requirements, and energy conservation.

The Construction Document phase of the project consists of the preparation of the construction documents to include final drawings, specifications, details, calculations, and final opinion of probable construction cost. Our proposal includes complete landscape, architectural and engineering services required to execute the project.

SCOPE OF WORK
TASK 1 – PRELIMINARY PLAN & DESIGN REPORT
As part of the kickoff on the project, RJM Design Group will obtain documentation from the City pertaining to the project, including existing record drawings, while performing a site review to understand the existing conditions of the project site and the park as a whole. Next, we will coordinate a kickoff meeting with City staff to discuss project goals, schedule, and scope, as well as determining the requirements for the various permits necessary to complete the project. With approval from City staff, we will invite our Geotechnical team to begin their field research to begin the preparation of the comprehensive geotechnical report, as well as our Civil Engineer to begin the aerial survey from which we will prepare a base map. Concurrently, the design team will prepare site analysis documents identifying the opportunities and constraints of the site and the proposed location of the pickleball court complex from the current concept illustrative plan.

Based on our initial review of the existing facilities and the locations of the proposed amenities on the illustrative plan, we believe that the location of the pickleball complex may be better served if located adjacent to existing constructed amenities (i.e. infrastructure, parking, etc.). We understand that the community demand for pickleball facilities has exceeded the timetable for the overall park phasing and in order to resolve that issue without exorbitant construction costs and gaps in the development of the site, our design team would review and research alternative locations in the interest of City budgets and feasible construction planning.

With this in mind, the design team will review and digest the assessment of the existing infrastructure and compare with the City’s project goals and requested amenities. RJM will commence the preparation of two (2) conceptual design plans that maximize the potential of the City’s first tournament-ready Pickleball complex. During the conceptual design process, we will collaborate with our Pickleball Consultant, Diana Abruscato, to ensure we meet the needs of the pickleball community in San Clemente. This preliminary design report will be considered a 30% progress plan set complete with statements of probable costs for each of the design plans. This preliminary submittal will be provided to the City for full review and selection of the preferred conceptual design plan.

PTD, Inc. was launched specifically to fill an industry need for Architects, Engineers, and Developers
who needed the specialized services of PostTension Design Engineering. The industry standard of
Design-Build engineering left the developers
susceptible to quality control from contractors
who would design to minimum specifications in an
effort to win bids. Our firms Mission was to provide
developers with high quality foundation designs
that could then be placed out to bid for competitive
material and installation costs. We have provided
thousands of Post-Tension Foundation designs for
Residential, and Civic School and Park designs over
the last 20 years. We specialize in Post-Tension
Slab-On-Grade designs for Residential Single Family
Tract Homes, Multi-Family Housing, Apartments,
and Sport Court Designs.

Our expertise in sport court construction is valued
by many of the Tennis Court contractors in the
Southern California area, for reliable designs and
details that provide great performance and cost
efficient installation. Our Sport Court designs have
been utilized by many public and private schools
throughout California and have passed the scrutiny
of DSA plancheck. We have also designed courts
for both Municipal parks and private residences.

Specific to the Steed Park project, RJM has designed a multitude of both new and converted pickleball facilities. Our experience includes post-tension slab designs as well as traditional cast-in-place construction methods. All of our designs have been from the lens of park evolution. This entails planning court modifications to be implemented with relative low renovation impact should these courts change to basketball, tennis, or other hardcourt elements in the future.

Our design team will include the expertise of Certified Pickleball Teaching Professional, Diana Abruscato. Diana is a professional pickleball teaching instructor and is currently implementing pickleball programming in four Southern California cities. Additionally, Diana is the owner of Performance Pickleball LLC, where she coordinates special events, leagues, tournaments, camps, and clinics to fit a variety of players. RJM will team with Diana throughout the duration of the Steed Park project who will function as the pickleball expert to assist in the review of City goals, frequency and size of tournaments, revenue generation, and ensure the proposed plan meets those objectives.

Project Summary
Portola Park is a new 6.34 acre park located at the intersection of Glenn Ranch Road and Saddleback Ranch Road in Lake Forest. It is located near the new Iron Ridge community. The park provides many passive and active amenities for visitors, as well as fantastic overviews of the nearby open space.

Portola Park contains three (3) pickleball courts, which are the first public pickleball courts in the City.

A large playground offers varied play opportunities, with a climbing net, musical play elements, a large shaded play structure, and swings. Other active elements include one (1) outdoor sand volleyball court, several exercise stations, and an open turf area large enough to fit a U12 youth soccer field. The park also contains multiple shaded seating and gathering spaces, a restroom, drinking fountains, and a large picnic shelter. A perimeter walking trail winds throughout the park and connects with existing local trails. This trail system provides access throughout the region and includes hiking trail connections, such as to the nearby Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park.

The park also includes a new dog park accessible by a meandering walkway from the larger Portola Park.

The dog park contains separate areas for large and small dogs. A third space is open during maintenance of the other two dog play areas. The dog park includes doggie drinking fountains and dog agility equipment.

Shaded seating and DG walkways within and around the perimeter allow easy access for human users.

16 | City of San Clemente • Steed Park Pickleball Courts Project Summary
Orange County’s newest community, Rancho Mission Viejo, is located off Ortega Highway in South Orange County. It is home to a master planned 30 acre sports park unlike any other. Nestled in a natural rolling southern California landscape setting the environmental design of Esencia Sports Park is modeled after ranch industrialized facilities with board form buildings, steel I-beam shade structures, lighting, and landscape.

This rustic sports park offers both private and public amenities including: two (2) baseball fields, one (1) softball field, custom designed restroom and concessions building, one (1) synthetic multi-use field, one (1) playground, two (2) dedicated tennis and eight (8) dedicated pickle ball courts, and parking. Additional passive support amenities include hiking trails, exercise stations, and picnicing.

The sports park also offers community aquatic facilities overlooking the park complete with restrooms, a splash pad, lap swim lanes, open recreational swimming, as well as BBQ and cabana lounge areas. The site itself was designed to eliminate the need for expensive retaining walls while maximizing the buildable area through terraced pads and elevated concourses. The resulting design created hillside terraced seating, and elevated concessions allowing for maximum spectator viewing opportunities in a cost effective manner.

The new Esencia Sports Park is designed to fulfill much of the recreational needs identified for this new community.

City of San Clemente • Steed Park Pickleball Courts | 17 Project Summary
In 2014, RJM Design Group completed a preliminary study of the existing conditions and the possible improvements to park amenities that could be made to update the existing Worthy Park site. Given the park’s proximity to City Hall and the adjacent Huntington Beach High School, the site was very visible and showing signs of age. A racquetball court building, that had been shuttered nearly 10 years prior due to the waning interest in the sport, stood right in the center of the park in severe disrepair. The full-size basketball courts had been taken over by the surge in popularity of pickleball with the local community.

The racquetball building was razed giving way to a natural turf practice field, the basketball courts were converted to four pickleball courts, and new play equipment and a picnic shelter compliment the site.

Residents have overwhelmingly responded to the facelift, and are now requesting that the other portions of the park be updated to match.

3.2.12.1 Time for Compliance. Consultant shall not commence work under this Agreement until it has provided evidence satisfactory to the City that it has secured all insurance required under this section. In addition, Consultant shall not allow any subconsultant to commence work on any subcontract until it has provided evidence satisfactory to the City that the subconsultant has secured all insurance required under this section.

3.2.12.2 Types of Insurance Required.

DRAFT
55452.01100\31193624.5

(A) Commercial General Liability:
(1) Additional Insured: The City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds with regard to liability and defense of suits or claims arising out of the performance of the Agreement.

Additional Insured Endorsements shall not (1) be
restricted to "ongoing operations"; (2) exclude "contractual liability"; (3) restrict coverage to "sole" liability of Consultant; or (4) contain any other exclusions contrary to the terms or purposes of this Agreement. For all policies of Commercial General Liability insurance, Consultant shall provide endorsements in the form of ISO CG 20 10 10 01 (or endorsements providing the same coverage) to effectuate this requirement.
(2) Cancellation: Required insurance policies shall not be canceled or the coverage reduced until a thirty (30) day written notice of cancellation has been served upon the City except ten (10) days shall be allowed for non-payment of premium. (B) Automobile Liability:
(1) Cancellation: Required insurance policies shall not be canceled or the coverage reduced until a thirty (30) day written notice of cancellation has been served upon the City except ten (10) days shall be allowed for non-payment of premium.

3.2.12.4 Professional Liability (Errors & Omissions):
(A) Cancellation: Required insurance policies shall not be canceled or the coverage reduced until a thirty (30) day written notice of cancellation has been served upon the City except ten (10) days shall be allowed for non-payment of premium. (B) Contractual Liability Exclusion Deleted: This insurance shall include contractual liability applicable to this Agreement. The policy must “pay on behalf of” the insured and include a provision establishing the insurer’s duty to defend.

3.2.12.5 Workers' Compensation:
(A) Cancellation: Required insurance policies shall not be canceled or the coverage reduced until a thirty (30) day written notice of cancellation has been served upon the City except ten (10) days shall be allowed for non-payment of premium.

All policies of Commercial General Liability and Automobile Liability insurance shall be primary and any other insurance, deductible, or self-insurance maintained by the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, or volunteers shall not contribute with this primary insurance. Policies shall contain or be endorsed to contain such provisions.

3.2.12.7 Waiver of Subrogation. All policies of Commercial General Liability and Automobile Liability insurance shall specifically allow Consultant or others providing 465
DRAFT
55452.01100\31193624.5
insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. Consultant hereby waives its own right of recovery against the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subconsultants.

3.2.12.8 Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductible or selfinsured retention greater than $5,000 must be approved in writing by the City and shall protect the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers in the same manner and to the same extent as they would have been protected had the policy or policies not contained a deductible or self-insured retention.

3.2.12.9 Evidence of Insurance. The Consultant, concurrently with the execution of the Agreement, and as a condition precedent to the effectiveness thereof, shall deliver either certified copies of the required policies, or original certificates on forms approved by the City, together with all endorsements affecting each policy. Required insurance policies shall not be in compliance if they include any limiting provision or endorsement that has not been submitted to the City for approval. The certificates and endorsements for each insurance policy shall be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. At least fifteen (15 days) prior to the expiration of any such policy, evidence of insurance showing that such insurance coverage has been renewed or extended shall be filed with the City. If such coverage is cancelled or reduced and not replaced immediately so as to avoid a lapse in the required coverage, Consultant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such cancellation or reduction of coverage, file with the City evidence of insurance showing that the required insurance has been reinstated or has been provided through another insurance company or companies.

3.2.12.10 Failure to Maintain Coverage. In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these specifications or is canceled and not replaced immediately so as to avoid a lapse in the required coverage, City has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by City will be promptly reimbursed by Consultant or City will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from Consultant payments. In the alternative, City may cancel this Agreement effective upon notice.

3.2.12.11 Acceptability of Insurers. Each such policy shall be from a company or companies with a current A.M. Best's rating of no less than A- VII and authorized to transact business of insurance in the State of California, or otherwise allowed to place insurance through surplus line brokers under applicable provisions of the California Insurance Code or any federal law.

3.2.12.12 Enforcement of Agreement Provisions (non estoppel).

Consultant acknowledges and agrees that actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Consultant of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligation on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

3.2.12.13 Requirements Not Limiting. Requirement of specific coverage or minimum limits contained in this Appendix are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits, or other requirement, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance.

3.2.12.14 Insurance for Subconsultants. Consultant shall include all subconsultants engaged in any work for Consultant relating to this Agreement as additional insureds under the Consultant's policies, or the Consultant shall be responsible for causing 466

All policies of Commercial General Liability insurance provided by Consultant’s subconsultants performing work relating to this Agreement shall be endorsed to name the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents and volunteers as additional insureds using endorsement form ISO CG 20 38 04 13 or an endorsement providing equivalent coverage. Consultant shall not allow any subconsultant to commence work on any subcontract relating to this Agreement until it has received satisfactory evidence of subconsultant’s compliance with all insurance requirements under this Agreement, to the extent applicable. The Consultant shall provide satisfactory evidence of compliance with this section upon request of the City.

Prepared By: Sara Toma, Senior Planner
Subject:

INITIATION OF ZONING AMENDMENT TO CHAPTER 16.50 (STATE-MANDATED SUBDIVISIONS) AND CHAPTER 17.86 (STATE-MANDATED RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS) OF THE SAN CLEMENTE MUNICIPAL CODE TO 1) ADD LANGUAGE FOR NON-CONFORMING URBAN LOT SPLITS AND TWO-UNIT PROJECTS AND DISCRETIONARY APPROVAL, 2) REVISE LANGUAGE FOR VERY HIGH FIRE HAZARD SEVERITY ZONES, 3) REVISE ALLEY SETBACK AREA STANDARDS, IN ACCORDANCE WITH CALIFORNIA SENATE BILL 9
Fiscal Impact:

Indirect costs may occur if Long Range Planning work programs that are delayed to process this amendment require expedited processing and consultant costs.

Summary:

On December 20, 2022, the City Council introduced an Ordinance amending Chapters 16.50 and 17.86 of the San Clemente Municipal Code (SCMC) to regulate Urban Lot Splits and Two-Unit Projects in accordance with Senate Bill 9. Prior to and at the hearing, the City Council received public comment requesting modifications to the ordinance. The City Council discussed including the requested changes upon second reading of the ordinance. However, the SCMC requires Planning Commission consideration of a zoning code change prior to City Council review and action. Since the Planning Commission has not considered the proposed changes, the City Council must initiate deliberation of the proposed changes by the Planning Commission before a revised ordinance can come back to the City Council for approval. This item is an initiation of a zoning amendment to consider the modifications presented by the public and discussed at the December 20th City Council meeting.

Background:

At the December 20, 2022 City Council meeting, staff presented an Ordinance amending SCMC Chapters

16.50 and 17.86, to regulate Urban Lot Splits and Two-Unit Projects under SB 9. SB 9 requires cities to: (1) allow any lot in a single-family residential zone to be split, roughly into halves, with resulting lots as small as 1,200 square feet and (2) allow any lot in a single-family residential zone to be developed with up to two primary dwellings. SB 9 requires cities to approve eligible lot splits and two-unit projects ministerially (i.e., without discretionary review, conditions, or a hearing).

Prior to, and at the public hearing, the City Council heard comments requesting the following modifications to the ordinance:
· Nonconforming Urban Lot Splits and Two-Unit Projects: Proposed projects that do not conform to the objective standards set forth in SB 9 Ordinance may apply for a discretionary permit. · Fire Hazard Mitigation Measures: Objective standards under section 16.50.010 E 12. A and

17.86.010 E 8a to be replaced with “the proposed project must comply with Orange County Fire Authority Standards for development in Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones.” · Alley Setback Area: Notwithstanding any other part of this code, dwellings constructed after Urban CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE Page 1 of 2 Printed on 1/12/2023
powered by Legistar™471
Meeting Date: 1/17/2023 Agenda Item: C.

Lot Splits and Two-Unit Projects must be at least 5 feet from alley right of way lines.

The City’s Zoning Ordinance (SCMC Title 17) requires Planning Commission consideration and recommendation to the City Council on changes to the zoning code under section 17.16.040 (Zoning Amendments). The proposed changes discussed at the December 20 City Council hearing were not considered previously by the Planning Commission in connection with the subject ordinance. Therefore, the City Council can only initiate consideration of the proposed ideas by the Planning Commission before having them come back as a code amendment.

Staff recommends that the City Council proceed with the second reading of the subject ordinance, which will re -codify and update the City’s SB 9 standards established by the Urgency Ordinance in December 2021.

Adopting the subject ordinance will maintain consistency with the City’s Housing Element implementation in accordance with state law. Staff would then process the code amendment addressing public comments as a stand-alone modification for Planning Commission and City Council consideration.

Alternatively, the City Council could delay the recommended action and remand the entire matter to the Planning Commission so that the unrelated matters are considered in unison. This is not recommended because it would cause a delay in our efforts to comply with SB 9 as described above.

Recommended Actions:

Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council:

INITIATE A ZONING AMENDMENT TO CHAPTER 16.50 (STATE-MANDATED SUBDIVISIONS) AND CHAPTER 17.86 (STATE-MANDATED RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS) OF THE SAN CLEMENTE MUNICIPAL CODE TO 1) ADD LANGUAGE FOR NON-CONFORMING URBAN LOT SPLITS AND TWO-UNIT PROJECTS AND DISCRETIONARY APPROVAL, 2) REVISE LANGUAGE FOR VERY HIGH FIRE HAZARD SEVERITY ZONES, 3) REVISE ALLEY SETBACK AREA STANDARDS, IN ACCORDANCE WITH CALIFORNIA SENATE BILL 9

UPDATE TO COUNCIL APPOINTEES TO REGIONAL COMMITTEES, COMMISSIONS AND CITY

COUNCIL SUBCOMMITTEES
Fiscal Impact:

None.

Summary:

Each year, Council updates its appointees to regional committees, commissions and boards. The current list of appointees is attached (Attachment 1). Staff recommends that Council update its regional appointments at this time. It should be noted that at its December 20, 2022 meeting, Council appointed Mayor Duncan to the Orange County Fire Authority Board, and per the Joint Powers Agreement with the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) Resolution No. 22-49 was adopted confirming that appointment.

At its December 6, 2022 City Council meeting, Council requested a review of Council subcommittees to determine whether to dissolve old subcommittees, create new subcommittees, and/or reassign Councilmembers to various subcommittees. The current list of City Council subcommittees is attached for Council consideration (Attachment 2).

At its September 6, 2022, meeting Council voted 3-2 (Councilmember Duncan and Councilmember Ward dissenting) to establish a Citizens Subcommittee to further analyze the feasibility of an amphitheater. Each Councilmember was to appoint a citizen to participate on the subcommittee. To date, only one Councilmember has appointed a citizen to the subcommittee.

City Council considered an amphitheater in 2008 and discussed an amphitheater and committee on August 16, 2022 (Attachment 3). Staff recommends that Council make a determination whether to proceed with establishing the Citizens Subcommittee to analyze the feasibility of an amphitheater. If Council determines to establish a citizen’s subcommittee, each Councilmember would appoint a citizen, and notify the City Clerk of that appointment.

Recommended Actions:

Staff Recommendation

1. Update Councilmember appointments to various regional committees, commissions and boards.

2. Update Councilmember appointments to various City Council subcommittees.
