Include any volunteer contributions to the community if applicable:Describa su participación en su vecindario de San Rafael. ¿Qué ha hecho para que su comunidad sea segura? Incluya cualquier contribución voluntaria a la comunidad, si corresponde:

I'm an active volunteer in San Rafael and across Marin. With regards to directly serving the community, I volunteer locally at the Ritter Center, which provides supportive services to our most vulnerable populations. Specifically I help in their food pantry, distributing food to housed and unhoused individuals experiencing food insecurity. I like to think that this makes San Rafael a safer place by showing compassion and respect to people in hard times, which I feel inspires a stronger sense of community. Additionally I am a volunteer with the Marin Foster Care Association in their partnership program with Marin's Children and Family Services, Friends of the Family.

This program is meant to provide volunteer support for resource families (ie foster parents). In my own experience, this has ranged from watching kids for the day, to picking up kids from supervised visits with their biological family and taking them home to their resource families.

Q9
Please list your reasons for wanting to serve.Por favor, indique las razones por las que desea servir:

I have family in law enforcement but I also know people who have had terrible experiences with law enforcement. I emphasize with people on both sides. As such I feel this puts me in a unique position to bring a balanced approach that will help this commission. I want to help ensure that PAAC is a safe space for the commissioners, stakeholders, and members of the public to share their concerns. That this isn't a place where blame is being thrown around. As a commissioner, I want to approach this with an attitude of curiosity, a desire to learn and get to the roots of the issues by actively listening to all relevant parties. For my work at PG&E, when safety incidents occur, we don’t look to assign blame, instead we try to understand the course of events, what was deliberate and unintended, seeing where things went wrong with our standards and procedures; afterwards we decide what controls can be put in place to mitigate risk. That’s the kind of mindset I plan to bring as a commissioner. Ultimately, I want to contribute to a future where our city police and staff feel supported, but at the same time where San Rafael residents, especially in BIPOC communities, do not feel afraid of the SRPD, and we have helped create a more equitable justice system that our community deserves. It’s about finding the right balance; and that will take time, effort, communication, patience, cooperation, and ultimately trust.

Q10
Please share your perception and or perspective about law enforcement in San Rafael.Por favor, comparta su percepción o perspectiva sobre la aplicación de la ley en San Rafael.

I would say that I've never felt intimidated by their presence; in fact I've generally felt reassured when they're present at large public gatherings such as the No Kings Rally earlier this year. Additionally I appreciate that our local law enforcement includes crisis counselors to respond to issues of mental health.

Q11
If selected to serve, what reasonable accommodation requests should the Committee facilitator know, in order for you to fully participate?En caso de ser seleccionado, ¿qué ajustes razonables debe saber el facilitador del Comité para que usted pueda participar plenamente?
I have obligations on the 1st Thursday and 2nd Wednesday of each month, otherwise my schedule is generally open on weekday evenings. I do not require any other accommodations
Q12
Describe possible areas in which you may have a conflict of interest with the city if any.Describa posibles áreas en las que pueda tener un conflicto de intereses con la ciudad, si las hubiera:

There are no conflicts of interest with the city that I'm aware of, but in terms of the commission, as I previously mentioned I do have an older brother in law enforcement, with the city of Oakland Q13
Do you officially represent an organization, agency or group that provides violence prevention services? If so, please name the group and your position.¿Representa oficialmente a una organización, agencia o grupo que presta servicios de prevención de la violencia? En caso afirmativo, indique el grupo y su cargo.

As I've mentioned, I'm a volunteer with the Marin Foster Care Association which partners with the county's Children and Family Services. While the program I'm a part of does not deal with violence prevention per say, as part of our training we learned of the sometimes violent circumstances that led the children to be in the foster care system. Our training also involved identifying signs of abuse, including the physical kind, when interacting with the children and how to report it to the appropriate agencies.

Quality Management Auditor (Vegetation Management) at Pacific Gas & Electric
San Francisco Bay Area
Summary
Over the last decade, I’ve contributed to land conservation projects across the country for multiple land management agencies. The breadth of my experience focuses on vegetation management with particular emphasis on invasive plant control, native plant surveys, and ecological assessments. In 2015, I achieved my Master of Science in natural resource ecology, advancing my technical knowledge in statistics and ArcGIS. Now with a wealth of practical field skills, as well as technical expertise from my master’s degree, I’m interested in advancing into conservation program management. I’d like to use my collected knowledge and skills to develop stewardship strategies, ensuring ecological productivity and diversity of public lands in the face of climate change.

Experience
Pacific Gas and Electric Company
Quality Management Auditor (Veg Management)
August 2021 - Present (4 years 2 months)
San Rafael, California, United States
As part of PG&E's quality management, essentially my role is to confirm tree work and make sure nothing was missed; that trimming meets our compliance standards and that remaining trees with strike potential to our high voltage facilities, do not pose any risk. Additionally by reviewing the work of inspectors and tree crews, who are often contractors, we hold them accountable for the quality of their work; and with time we hope to encourage the proper behavior and mindset that PG&E expects of all its workers.

I've done work verification on a number of PG&E's vegetation management programs, including Defined Scope (routine vegetation management) and EVM (enhanced vegetation management). Though work verification in both programs have the same goals, each has their own unique criteria. For Defined Scope, I'm looking for 1) any trees that could encroach on required powerline clearances before for the next time inspectors come through

Page 1 of 8 ends

(approx. 6 months) and 2) checking any trees with strike potential for defects that compromises the tree's structural integrity (fungal infection, root damage, severe lean, etc.). If I find a tree that meets the criteria, I map the tree in ArcGIS Collector, flag it for follow up inspection, and continue on. While with EVM, in addition to mapping trees that fail our compliance requirements, I have to perform assessments on every single tree with strike potential, using Survey123, regardless of the tree's health.

Davey Resource Group, Inc.
2 years 6 months
Lead Estimating Arborist (Distribution)
July 2020 - August 2021 (1 year 2 months)
Santa Rosa, California, United States
The overall purpose of my position is to be a point of contact between PG&E and Davey Resource Group. I delegate field assignments to the estimating arborists on my team, prioritize assignments based on urgency of the work, and administer the workflow so that tags are completed in a timely manner and fully documented.

I oversee vegetation management for PG&E system maintenance and construction projects in Sonoma county. PG&E continually performs maintenance, upgrades, and expands their facilities which can require vegetation management to allow access to the facilities and/or to maintain compliance with California state law. We will receive a list of projects, or tags, from program managers that need to be completed by the end of the year, I will then allot the tags to my arborists, who will inspect the site, assess the scope of tree work needed, determine an estimate for the cost, and submit a work request to a PG&E contracted tree trimming service who will fulfill the work request. These tags are recorded in a master tracker spreadsheet which is continually updated by me and the field arborists. After I receive confirmation that work has been completed by our contracted tree crews, I review the photos to ensure that the work was done to our specifications, and I submit documentation to the appropriate PG&E clerks for closure.

In addition to our vegetation work around system maintenance, we will frequently get special requests from other program managers, field engineers, and foremen from PG&E and other contracted companies such as Rokstad Power, Par Electric, Underground Construction, etc. These requests can vary; some can be simple trimming requests for new poles being installed or service lines being put underground, etc. Other requests involve future work being

considered but the managers need a sense of what, if any, vegetation work is required, what the scope of that work would be, and the estimated cost; we as arborists, provide that information for them.

Estimating Arborist (Transmission)
April 2020 - July 2020 (4 months)
Santa Rosa, California, United States
As of June 2020 I am a certified arborist with the International Society of Arboriculture
Certification Number: WE-13014A
After becoming an EA, my first project was on pole clearance for transmission towers and other structures. PG&E is looking to expand their vegetation management on transmission structures, in addition to the transmission lines.

Drone crews from PG&E would identify points along the transmission line with encroaching vegetation and we would investigate to see how close vegetation was and prescribe work as needed. The goal was to maintain 10 feet of clearance around structures, from ground to sky, as well as 5 feet around any guy supporting wires. This required regular travel; locations were scattered in Marin, Sonoma, Mendocino, and Lake counties. By the time I transferred to EA distribution, we had gotten a full month ahead of schedule.

Consulting Utility Forester
March 2019 - April 2020 (1 year 2 months)
Marin
As a Consulting Utility Forester, I am responsible for inspecting and mitigating hazardous vegetation along utilities on behalf of our client, PG&E. Our goal is to prevent disruption in service, to PG&E customers, as well as limiting the risk of wildfire to customers homes and property. I have inspected in a variety of environments, ranging from urban, residential, to open space; each with their own unique challenges. My position also requires regular contact with private landowners, some of whom do not have a favorable opinion of PG&E, justifying the necessity of our work and negotiating enhanced vegetation management when necessary.

I’m deeply involved in the San Rafael community across a number of areas that reflect my commitment to safety, inclusion, and service. Currently, I serve as the Chairperson of the same PAAC, where I help facilitate local collaboration and civic engagement. I volunteer regularly in community clean-up efforts and have helped host various neighborhood events to strengthen local connection.

As a board member at our local interfaith organization and an active member of the Baha'i Faith community, I advocate for unity and understanding among all faiths and cultures.

I’m also passionate about supporting our most vulnerable neighbors particularly the unhoused and underserved populations in San Rafael and work as a vocal advocate for their needs. Beyond these roles, I’m a proud father of two daughters, and that inspires my ongoing dedication to youth safety and prioritizing access to quality education for every child. I even find time to stay active as a member of a local rugby club, which gives me another way to build relationships and promote teamwork in the community.

Q9
Please list your reasons for wanting to serve.Por favor, indique las razones por las que desea servir:

I’m seeking to serve another term because I believe my work in San Rafael is far from finished. My first term ends in October, and while it’s been meaningful, I’m committed to continuing the journey and creating lasting impact. I want to strengthen public safety, foster deeper partnerships across neighborhoods, and ensure every voice especially those from underserved and marginalized communities is heard and valued by our city’s decision makers.

I’m driven by a deep sense of accountability and want to see our city’s duties carried out with integrity and respect for our shared values. In this next chapter, I’ll continue to advocate for collaboration and unity, and offer calm support to communities of color facing challenges like immigration crackdowns and racial profiling. My goal is to be a bridge a voice of compassion and a steadfast partner who helps ensure equity, responsibility, and connection are at the heart of our civic work.

While living in San Rafael for the past 3 years I have worked with helping the unhoused population. I volunteer for Legal Aid of Marin helping the unhoused population fill out community court intakes at the Saint Vincent DePaul self help desk on Wednesdays when needed. I am also Co-Chair of the Marin County Lived Experienced Advisory Board (MC-LEAB) and our board has a booth at the quarterly Seeds of Hope event for the unhoused at the San Rafael Community Center. At the Seeds of Hope we hand out multiple coat racks of gently used clothes at the event. Our advisory board has also met with San Rafael city staff on numerous occasions and we offer feedback and advice on ways to improve homelessness in San Rafael as well as the sanctioned camp at the Mahon Creek Path.

Q9
Please list your reasons for wanting to serve.Por favor, indique las razones por las que desea servir:

I have a few reasons for wanting to serve on the Police Advisory & Accountability Committee (PAAC). One of the reasons I want to join is to be a conduit and voice for those who are impacted by the San Rafael Police Department (SRPD). I am in firm belief that listening and voicing the concerns and advice of marginalized and underrepresented communities in San Rafael is paramount to building a strong, effective Police Advisory & Accountability Committee (PAAC). Another reason is to ensure that SRPD is accountable and that there is transparency within SRPD. I think those two qualities are vital for a police department in gaining trust with the public. I also believe I have I have the experience to build the bridge to fostering a positive partnership with SRPD. Over the last 5 years I have worked with city staff, council members, supervisors and police departments on improving homelessness across Marin. I’m confident I can do the same good work as a member of the PAAC.

Q10
Please share your perception and or perspective about law enforcement in San Rafael.Por favor, comparta su percepción o perspectiva sobre la aplicación de la ley en San Rafael.

Well, to be honest, I have to believe one of the main reasons the city created the PAAC was due to arrest of Julio Jimenez Lopez and the subsequent use of force charges that were filed on two San Rafael police officers. The perception of law enforcement, based on this incident, within the community of San Rafael (including myself) was not good. The Profiling and Identity Act (RIPA) data in San Rafael shows that there is over policing in minority communities which is not unique because the same could be said with all law enforcement agencies across the country. Still, I think that there could be improvements made within SRPD that can help change the course. I fully believe that police are essential and needed in society even when there are in fact bad cops on the force. Again, accountability, transparency, listening and working with the community can help build trust with the public despite of this.

Q11
If selected to serve, what reasonable accommodation requests should the Committee facilitator know, in order for you to fully participate?En caso de ser seleccionado, ¿qué ajustes razonables debe saber el facilitador del Comité para que usted pueda participar plenamente?

SUBJECT: APPROVE THE APPOINTMENT OF REPRESENTATIVES TO THE MARIN COUNTY

HAZARDOUS AND SOLID WASTE JOINT POWERS AUTHORITY (ZERO WASTE

MARIN), MARIN EMERGENCY RADIO AUTHORITY (MERA), THE MARIN WILDFIRE

PREVENTION AUTHORITY OPERATIONS COMMITTEE (MWPA), AND THE MARIN

GENERAL SERVICES AUTHORITY (MGSA)
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council approve the appointment of representatives to the Marin County Hazardous and Solid Waste Joint Powers Authority (Zero Waste Marin) Board and Executive Committee, the Marin Emergency Radio Authority (MERA) Governing Board, the Marin Wildfire Prevention Authority Operations Committee (MWPA), and the Marin General Services Authority (MGSA) Board of Directors.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

City staff serve on regional boards representing the City’s interests and ensuring the City has a voice in regional decision-making. These appointments may be reviewed and updated periodically to reflect changes in staff assignments. These appointments were previously revised at the December 16, 2024, City Council meeting. At this time, staff is recommending updates to the City’s appointments to the Marin County Hazardous and Solid Waste Joint Powers Authority (Zero Waste Marin) Board and Executive Committee, the Marin Emergency Radio Authority (MERA) Governing Board, the Marin Wildfire Prevention Authority Operations Committee, and the Marin General Services Authority (MGSA) Board of Directors. Staff recommends that the City Council continue to appoint alternate members to serve as the City’s representative at meetings for which the primary representative is not available. The proposed appointments are provided in Attachment 1 to this staff report.

These proposed changes will enable City staff to provide representation in areas they oversee or have subject matter expertise, ensuring the City’s voice is present in relevant discussions and decisions. These changes affect staff appointments only; the appointments of City Councilmembers are not affected by this action.

SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Department: Library and Recreation
Prepared by: Craig Veramay, Assistant Library
& Recreation Director, and
Gabriela Farias, Senior Recreation Supervisor
City Manager Approval: ______________
TOPIC: CALIFORNIA STATE PRESCHOOL PROGRAM CONTINUED FUNDING APPLICATION AND RENEWAL OF CONTRACT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026-27 SUBJECT: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY OF SAN RAFAEL TO APPLY FOR

CONTINUED FUNDING AND RENEWAL OF CALIFORNIA STATE PRESCHOOL

PROGRAM CONTRACT WITH THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

AND DESIGNATING AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES AS SIGNATORIES FOR

RELATED CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing:

1. The City of San Rafael to submit the Continued Funding Application (CFA) to the California Department of Education (CDE) to renew an existing contract to provide California State Preschool Program (CSPP) services for Fiscal Year 2026-27; and

2. The City Manager to designate the Library and Recreation Director, Assistant Library and Recreation Director, and Senior Recreation Supervisor for Childcare Programs as authorized representatives of the City to sign the CFA and all related contract documents for Fiscal Year 2026-27.

BACKGROUND:

Assembly Bill 2759 (Chapter 308, Statutes of 2008) created the California State Preschool Program (CSPP). This program consolidated the funding for preschool, pre-kindergarten, family literacy, and general childcare center-based programs serving eligible three- and four-year-old children to create the CSPP. The City of San Rafael has operated the Pickleweed Preschool Program, which is located at 40 Canal Street adjacent to the Boro Community Center and Pickleweed Park, since 1997. The Pickleweed Preschool program is a 100% subsidized program that serves 68 income-eligible children and families by providing part-day preschool programs that include a core class curriculum that is developmentally, SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 2
culturally, and linguistically appropriate for the children served. The program also provides meals and snacks to children, parent education, referrals to health and social services for families, and staff development opportunities to employees. The City of San Rafael administers this program, and partners with other local agencies, colleges, community-action agencies, and private nonprofit agencies to provide supplemental services.

Pickleweed Preschool relies on the renewal of the CSPP contract as a primary source of funding to provide these services. The preschool is designed to facilitate the transition to kindergarten for threeyear-old and four-year-old children. Each child is given the opportunity to prepare and develop at their own pace under the supervision and care of City childcare staff. Each year, the program establishes goals for each child to build a foundation of skills needed to succeed in their future schooling and society.

The City Council previously approved CSPP grant funding for the Pickleweed Preschool at its October 21, 2024 meeting.

ANALYSIS:

The City of San Rafael has had an existing agreement with the California Department of Education (CDE) to operate the Pickleweed Preschool as a CSPP contractor since 1997. Contractors holding a current CSPP contract who wish to be considered for continued funding for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026-27 must complete a Continuation of Funding Application (CFA). Contractors who apply for and are approved for continued funding do not need to sign a contract with the California Department of Education to provide CSPP services for FY 2026–27. Contracts will be automatically renewed in accordance with all applicable federal and state laws and contract terms and conditions.

By authorizing the CFA, the City is indicating that it wishes to automatically renew its contract for FY 2026–27 and accepts all the terms and conditions of the 2026–27 CSPP contract, which will be provided to the City no later than June 1, 2026. Contractors have no vested right to a subsequent contract.

Completion of this CFA does not guarantee a renewal of funding. If the CDE determines our agency will not be renewed for a subsequent contract year, we will be notified in writing no later than April 7, 2026, pursuant to the California Code of Regulations, Title 5 (5 CCR) Section 17828.

City staff recommend authorizing the CFA and renewing our CSPP contract to continue providing this incredibly valuable program. This funding is essential for the City to continue providing preschool services at Pickleweed Preschool.

Historically, the CSPP contract award has not covered all expenses associated with operating Pickleweed Preschool. Annually, the California Department of Education establishes Maximum Reimbursable Amounts (MRA) for contractors based on the number of children enrolled in the program, federal and state laws, and the Contract Terms and Conditions. For FY 2026-27, the Maximum Reimbursable Amount for the City is $574,809, representing 81.5% of the expected operating expenses of the program for FY 2026-27. This represents a $44,283 increase in funding from FY 2025-26, when the City received $530,526, which covered 77% of operating expenses. In FY 2024-25, CDE provided $466,229 of funding.

In addition to CSPP funding, in recent years CDE has also provided the City with supplemental one-time ‘Cost of Care’ disbursements outside the CSPP contract. However, CDE hasn’t confirmed whether onetime Cost of Care disbursements will be available in FY 2026-27. In addition to CSPP funding, the City has also received Marin Childcare Council Safety Net grant funds and Community Development Block Grant funding supporting this program.

SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 3
Despite forecasting a budget shortfall within the Pickleweed Preschool Fund (Fund 260) the last three years, the City has received sufficient funding through the combination of CSPP, Cost of Care disbursements, and other grant funding, to cover all operating expenses annually. Staff expect a similar outcome in FY 2026-27; however, the City has sufficient Fund Balance in Fund 260 to support operations during FY 2026-27 in the event of a shortfall. City staff continue to actively pursue additional funding sources to supplement the CSPP grant and other funding.

FISCAL IMPACT: The following table provides a summary of the projected revenue sources supporting the Pickleweed Preschool Program budget in FY 2026-27:

Pickleweed Preschool (Fund 260) Program Budget
Revenue Sources: FY26-27
(projected)
California Department of Education State Preschool Program (CSPP) $574,809 Marin Child Care Council Safety Net Grant $16,000
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) $19,397
Use of Available Fund Balance $94,618
Total Revenue & Available Fund Balance $704,824
Expenditures:

Personnel $650,784
Non-Personnel $54,040
Total Expenditures: $704,824
OPTIONS:

The City Council has the following options to consider on this matter:

1. Adopt the resolution as proposed to authorize the City to apply for continued funding and renewal of our agreement with the California Department of Education as a CSPP contractor for Fiscal Year 2026-27.

2. Do not adopt the resolution, resulting in the City declining the opportunity to receive a grant from the California Department of Education.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing:

1. The City of San Rafael to submit the Continued Funding Application (CFA) to the California Department of Education (CDE) to renew an existing contract to provide California State Preschool Program (CSPP) services for Fiscal Year 2026-27; and

2. The City Manager to designate the Library and Recreation Director, Assistant Library and Recreation Director, and Senior Recreation Supervisor for Childcare Programs as authorized representatives of the City to sign the CFA and all related contract documents for Fiscal Year 2026-27.

Fiscal Year 2026–27 Continued Funding Application
DUE DATE: 5:00p.m. November 14, 2025
Contractors holding a current California State Preschool Program (CSPP) contract, and if applicable a Prekindergarten and Family Literacy Support (CPKS) contract, who wish to be considered for continued funding, for fiscal year (FY) 2026–27 must complete this application for continued funding. The FY 2026–27 CFA Overview and Instructions may be accessed on the CFA web page. Contractors are strongly encouraged to review the CFA Overview and Instructions before and after completion of the CFA and associated documents to confirm that the application and forms submitted for their agency have been completed in accordance with all applicable instructions.

Contractors who apply for and are approved for continued funding do not need to sign a contract with the California Department of Education (CDE) to provide CSPP and CPKS services for FY 2026–27. Contracts will be automatically renewed in accordance with all applicable federal and state laws and contract terms and conditions (CT&C). By signing this CFA, the contractor is indicating that it wishes to automatically renew its contract(s) for FY 2026–27 and accepts all of the terms and conditions of the 2026–27 CSPP contract, and if applicable the 2026–27 CPKS contract, which will be provided to the contractor no later than June 1, 2026.

Upon completion of this CFA, the CDE will review the application and may contact your agency seeking additional information. If the CFA is returned to the CDE in a timely manner but is not fully and accurately completed, funding for FY 2026–27, if approved, may be delayed.

Please also note that contractors have no vested right to a subsequent contract. Completion of this CFA does not guarantee a renewal of funding. If the CDE determines your agency will not be renewed for a subsequent contract year, you will be notified in writing no later than April 7, 2026, pursuant to the California Code of Regulations, Title 5 (5 CCR) Section 17828.

Contractors that wish to reject the terms of the FY 2026–27 CSPP and/or CPKS contract must provide the CDE with written notice that the terms of the contract(s) are rejected by emailing [email protected] on or before June 30, 2026. The email should come from the Executive Director/Superintendent of the contracting entity or their authorized representative and state that the terms of the FY 2026–27 CSPP and, as applicable, the CPKS contract are rejected. Contractors providing such notice to the CDE of the rejection of the terms of the contract will not have contract(s) in effect for FY 2026–27.

Contractors cannot reject their CSPP contract and still receive funding under a CPKS contract since CPKS funding is tied to having a CSPP contract. If no notice of rejection is sent to the CDE and the CFA is approved, the contract will be automatically renewed, and no further action will be required from the contractor.

If a contractor wishes to terminate the contract for any reason during the FY 2026–27 contract term, the contractor shall notify the CDE of its intent to terminate the contract at least 90 calendar days in advance of contract termination and shall follow 5 CCR 17795.

If you have any questions regarding the CFA, please contact [email protected].

SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Department: Police Department
Prepared by: Todd Berringer, Police Lieutenant City Manager Approval: ______________ TOPIC: BYRNE STATE CRISIS INTERVENTION PROGRAM (SCIP) GRANT ACCEPTANCE SUBJECT: RESOLUTION APPROVING THE ACCEPTANCE AND APPROPRIATION OF BYRNE

STATE CRISIS INTERVENTION PROGRAM (SCIP) GRANT FUNDS IN THE AMOUNT OF $483,282 TO SUPPORT THE SAN RAFAEL SPECIALIZED ASSISTANCE FOR

EVERYONE (SAFE) TEAM, EXPAND CRISIS RESPONSE SERVICES, AND DEVELOP

ENHANCED FIREARM RELINQUISHMENT PROCEDURES, AND AUTHORIZING THE

CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A GRANT AGREEMENT AND ANY RELATED

DOCUMENTS
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution approving the acceptance and appropriation of Byrne State Crisis Intervention Program (SCIP) grant funds in the amount of $483,282 covering the period August 1, 2025, through September 30, 2027, and authorize the City Manager to execute the grant agreement and any other documents related to the grant.

BACKGROUND:

The City of San Rafael has prioritized innovative approaches to community safety that reduce reliance on traditional law enforcement responses for individuals experiencing mental health crises. In March 2023, San Rafael launched the Specialized Assistance for Everyone (SAFE) Team, a civilian-based crisis intervention initiative modeled after successful national programs. The SAFE Team, staffed by Crisis Intervention Specialists and Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs), provides trauma-informed, nonlaw enforcement responses to behavioral health and social service-related calls. In 2024, the SAFE Team responded to more than 3,000 calls for service, accounting for over 8% of the total police department call volume.

At the same time, San Rafael, like many California cities, has experienced a rise in firearm-related risks, including the unlawful possession of un-serialized “ghost guns” and access to firearms by prohibited or at-risk individuals. Between 2019 and 2023, the San Rafael Police Department (SRPD) seized 117 unlawful firearms, including 13 ghost guns.

While the SAFE Team has demonstrated success in reducing arrests and the use of force, continued funding is critical to sustain the program after the expiration of the City’s three-year pilot in February 2026.

Additional resources are also needed to formalize firearm relinquishment protocols, expand officer training in crisis intervention and firearm risk assessment, and strengthen community-based initiatives.

SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 2
ANALYSIS:

The Byrne SCIP grant will enable San Rafael to:
• Sustain the SAFE Team: Pursuant to the Council goals and objectives (Priority Area E.2.2), this funding will support three Crisis Intervention Specialists, ensuring continuity of service after the expiration of the pilot program in February 2026. Specialists will provide trauma-informed crisis responses, proactive outreach, and service navigation for vulnerable populations. • Enhance Law Enforcement Training: All SRPD officers will receive Crisis Intervention Training (CIT), de-escalation instruction, and firearm risk assessment training, improving response outcomes and reducing use-of-force incidents.
• Refine Firearm Relinquishment Procedures: The project will develop standardized protocols for firearm access assessments and relinquishment under Extreme Risk Protection Orders (ERPOs). • Promote Community Firearm Safety: In partnership with county and local agencies, the City will provide education and outreach materials to community members on extreme risk protection orders and safe firearm relinquishment processes.

This initiative aligns with the Byrne SCIP Purpose Areas 1, 2, and 3 by advancing crisis response, reducing violence, and supporting community-based alternatives to involvement in the justice system.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Grant funds will be deposited into the Grant Fund – Safety (Fund #281) and appropriated for operational expenses, including personnel costs, training, educational materials, and outreach. No City General Fund monies will be required to implement the grant activities, though the City will continue to provide matching resources to support the SAFE Team’s EMT positions.

OPTIONS:

The City Council has the following options to consider on this matter:

1. Adopt the resolution as presented.

2. Adopt the resolution with modifications.

3. Direct staff to return with more information.

4. Take no action.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution approving the acceptance and appropriation of Byrne State Crisis Intervention Program (SCIP) grant funds in the amount of $483,282 covering the period August 1, 2025, through September 30, 2027, and authorize the City Manager to execute the grant agreement and any other documents related to the grant.

F. All Grantee records relevant to the project must be preserved a minimum of three (3) years after closeout of the grant project and shall be subject at all reasonable times to inspection, examination, monitoring, copying, excerpting, transcribing, and auditing by the BSCC or designees.

7. CONFLICT OF INTEREST
A. Existing law prohibits any grantee, subgrantee, partner or like party who participated on the Byrne SCIP Advisory Board (See Appendix A) from receiving funds from the grants awarded under this RFP.

Grantees falling below the $750,000 threshold must use non-federal funds (i.e., match funds) to pay for audit costs. For purposes of this grant award grantee is required to check one of the boxes below to indicate how they will meet the audit requirement.  In conformance with Federal Office of Management and Budget (OMB) CFR Part 200 – Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, and the California State Controller’s Accounting Standards and Procedures, Chapter 23, Grant Accounting Index, the identified grant will be included in the City/County Single Federal Audit Report, which will be submitted to the BSCC within 30 days of the Grantee’s receipt of the report or within nine months following the end of the audit period, whichever is earlier.

OR
 In conformance with Federal Office of Management and Budget (OMB) CFR Part 200 – Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, the non-governmental entity grantee does not expend $750,000 or more in total federal awards during the fiscal year and is therefore, exempt from Federal audit requirements for this grant contract period. However, the entity understands that it must keep and maintain the grant City of San Rafael

9. SETTLEMENT OF DISPUTES
A. The parties shall deal in good faith and attempt to resolve potential disputes informally. If the dispute persists, the Grantee shall submit to the BSCC Corrections Planning and Grant Programs Division Deputy Director a written demand for a final decision regarding the disposition of any dispute between the parties arising under, related to, or involving this Grant Agreement. Grantee’s written demand shall be fully supported by factual information. The BSCC Corrections Planning and Grant Programs Division Deputy Director shall have 30 days after receipt of Grantee’s written demand invoking this Section “Disputes” to render a written decision. If a written decision is not rendered within 30 days after receipt of the Grantee’s demand, it shall be deemed a decision adverse to the Grantee’s contention. If the Grantee is not satisfied with the decision of the BSCC Corrections Planning and Grant Programs Division Deputy Director, the Grantee may appeal the decision, in writing, within 15 days of its issuance (or the expiration of the 30-day period in the event no decision is rendered), to the BSCC Executive Director, who shall have 45 days to render a final decision. If the Grantee does not appeal the decision of the BSCC Corrections Planning and Grant Programs Division Deputy Director, the decision shall be conclusive and binding regarding the dispute and the Contractor shall be barred from commencing an action in court, or with the Victims Compensation Government Claims Board, for failure to exhaust Grantee’s administrative remedies.

B. Pending the final resolution of any dispute arising under, related to or involving this Grant Agreement, Grantee agrees to diligently proceed with the performance of this Grant Agreement, including the providing of services in accordance with the Grant Agreement. Grantee’s failure to diligently proceed in accordance with the State’s instructions regarding this Grant Agreement shall be considered a material breach of this Grant Agreement.

C. Any final decision of the State shall be expressly identified as such, shall be in writing, and shall be signed by the Executive Director, if an appeal was made. If the Executive Director fails to render a final decision within 45 days after receipt of the Grantee’s appeal for a final decision, it shall be deemed a final decision adverse to the Grantee’s contentions. The State’s final decision shall be conclusive and binding regarding the dispute unless the Grantee commences an action in a court of competent jurisdiction to contest such decision within 90 days following the date of the final decision or one (1) year following the accrual of the cause of action, whichever is later.

D. The dates of decision and appeal in this section may be modified by mutual consent, as applicable, excepting the time to commence an action in a court of competent jurisdiction.

9. WAIVER
The parties hereto may waive any of their rights under this Grant Agreement unless such waiver is contrary to law, provided that any such waiver shall be in writing and signed by the party making such waiver.

4. Effect of failure to address audit issues
The recipient understands and agrees that the DOJ awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) may withhold award funds, or may impose other related requirements, if (as determined by the DOJ awarding agency) the recipient does not satisfactorily and promptly address outstanding issues from audits required by the Part 200 Uniform Requirements (or by the terms of this award), or other outstanding issues that arise in connection with audits, investigations, or reviews of DOJ awards.

5. Requirements of the award; remedies for non-compliance or for materially false statements The conditions of this award are material requirements of the award. Compliance with any assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during the period of performance also is a material requirement of this award.

Limited Exceptions. In certain special circumstances, the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") may determine that it will not enforce, or enforce only in part, one or more requirements otherwise applicable to the award.

Failure to comply with one or more award requirements -- whether a condition set out in full below, a condition incorporated by reference below, or an assurance or certification related to conduct during the award period -- may result in OJP taking appropriate action with respect to the recipient and the award. Among other things, the OJP may withhold award funds, disallow costs, or suspend or terminate the award. DOJ, including OJP, also may take other legal action as appropriate.

Any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement to the federal government related to this award (or concealment or omission of a material fact) may be the subject of criminal prosecution (including under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or 1621, and/or 34 U.S.C. 10271-10273), and also may lead to imposition of civil penalties and administrative remedies for false claims or otherwise (including under 31 U.S.C. 3729-3730 and 3801-3812).

"Crime Control and Law Enforcement." The reclassification encompassed a number of statutory provisions pertinent to OJP awards (that is, OJP grants and cooperative agreements), including many provisions previously codified in Title 42 of the U.S. Code.

Effective as of September 1, 2017, any reference in this award document to a statutory provision that has been reclassified to the new Title 34 of the U.S. Code is to be read as a reference to that statutory provision as reclassified to Title 34. This rule of construction specifically includes references set out in award conditions, references set out in material incorporated by reference through award conditions, and references set out in other award requirements.

The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements to obtain specific advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in any procurement contract that would exceed the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (currently, $250,000). This condition applies to agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants administrative requirements -- OJP considers a procurement "contract" (and therefore does not consider a subaward).

The details of the requirement for advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in a procurement contract under an OJP award are posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/NoncompetitiveProcurement.htm (Award condition: Specific post-award approval required to use a noncompetitive approach in a procurement contract (if contract would exceed $250,000)), and are incorporated by reference here.

27. All subawards ("subgrants") must have specific federal authorization The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements for authorization of any subaward. This condition applies to agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants administrative requirements -- OJP considers a "subaward" (and therefore does not consider a procurement "contract").

The details of the requirement for authorization of any subaward are posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/SubawardAuthorization.htm (Award condition: All subawards ("subgrants") must have specific federal authorization), and are incorporated by reference here.

29. Restrictions on "lobbying"
In general, as a matter of federal law, federal funds awarded by OJP may not be used by the recipient, or any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, either directly or indirectly, to support or oppose the enactment, repeal, modification, or adoption of any law, regulation, or policy, at any level of government. See 18 U.S.C. 1913. (There may be exceptions if an applicable federal statute specifically authorizes certain activities that otherwise would be barred by law.) Another federal law generally prohibits federal funds awarded by OJP from being used by the recipient, or any subrecipient at any tier, to pay any person to influence (or attempt to influence) a federal agency, a Member of Congress, or Congress (or an official or employee of any of them) with respect to the awarding of a federal grant or cooperative agreement, subgrant, contract, subcontract, or loan, or with respect to actions such as renewing, extending, or modifying any such award. See 31 U.S.C. 1352. Certain exceptions to this law apply, including an exception that applies to Indian tribes and tribal organizations.

Should any question arise as to whether a particular use of federal funds by a recipient (or subrecipient) would or might fall within the scope of these prohibitions, the recipient is to contact OJP for guidance, and may not proceed without the express prior written approval of OJP.

Reporting Subawards and Executive Compensation), and are incorporated by reference here.

This condition, including its reporting requirement, does not apply to-- (1) an award of less than $30,000, or (2) an award made to an individual who received the award as a natural person (i.e., unrelated to any business or non-profit organization that he or she may own or operate in his or her name).

1. Meaningful access requirement for individuals with limited English proficiency The recipient, and any subrecipient at any tier, must take reasonable steps to ensure that individuals with limited English proficiency (LEP) have meaningful access to their programs and activities to comply with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI), which prohibits discrimination on the basis of national origin, including discrimination against individuals with LEP. Such steps may require providing language assistance services, such as interpretation or translation services. The Department of Justice guidance on compliance with this requirement may be found at "Guidance to Federal Financial Assistance Recipients Regarding Title VI Prohibition Against National Origin Discrimination Affecting Limited English Proficient Persons" (67 Fed. Reg. 41455-41472) (https://www.federalregister.gov/d/02-15207) and is incorporated by reference here.

2. Compliance with general appropriations-law restrictions on the use of federal funds (FY 2024) The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable restrictions on the use of federal funds set out in federal appropriations statutes. Pertinent restrictions that may be set out in applicable appropriations acts are indicated at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/FY24AppropriationsRestrictions.htm, and are incorporated by reference here.

Should a question arise as to whether a particular use of federal funds by a recipient (or a subrecipient) would or might fall within the scope of an appropriations-law restriction, the recipient is to contact OJP for guidance, and may not proceed without the express prior written approval of OJP.

3. Requirements of the award; remedies for non-compliance or for materially false statements The conditions of this award are material requirements of the award. Compliance with any assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during the period of performance also is a material requirement of this award.

Limited Exceptions. In certain special circumstances, the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") may determine that it will not enforce, or enforce only in part, one or more requirements otherwise applicable to the award. Any such exceptions regarding enforcement, including any such exceptions made during the period of performance, are (or will be during the period of performance) set out through the Office of Justice Programs ("OJP") webpage entitled "Legal Notices: Special circumstances as to particular award conditions" (https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalNotices-AwardReqts.htm), and incorporated by reference into the award.

By signing and accepting this award on behalf of the recipient, the authorized recipient official accepts all material requirements of the award, and specifically adopts, as if personally executed by the authorized recipient official, all assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during the period of performance.

Should any provision of a requirement of this award be held to be invalid or unenforceable by its terms, that provision shall first be applied with a limited construction so as to give it the maximum effect permitted by law. Should it be held, instead, that the provision is utterly invalid or -unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severable from this award.

4. Effect of failure to address audit issues
The recipient understands and agrees that the DOJ awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) may withhold award funds, or may impose other related requirements, if (as determined by the DOJ awarding agency) the recipient does not satisfactorily and promptly address outstanding issues from audits required by the Part 200 Uniform Requirements (or by the terms of this award), or other outstanding issues that arise in connection with audits, investigations, or reviews of DOJ awards.

In general, as a matter of federal law, federal funds awarded by OJP may not be used by the recipient, or any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, either directly or indirectly, to support or oppose the enactment, repeal, modification, or adoption of any law, regulation, or policy, at any level of government. See 18 U.S.C. 1913. (There may be exceptions if an applicable federal statute specifically authorizes certain activities that otherwise would be barred by law.) Another federal law generally prohibits federal funds awarded by OJP from being used by the recipient, or any subrecipient at any tier, to pay any person to influence (or attempt to influence) a federal agency, a Member of Congress, or Congress (or an official or employee of any of them) with respect to the awarding of a federal grant or cooperative agreement, subgrant, contract, subcontract, or loan, or with respect to actions such as renewing, extending, or modifying any such award. See 31 U.S.C. 1352. Certain exceptions to this law apply, including an exception that applies to Indian tribes and tribal organizations.

Should any question arise as to whether a particular use of federal funds by a recipient (or subrecipient) would or might fall within the scope of these prohibitions, the recipient is to contact OJP for guidance, and may not proceed without the express prior written approval of OJP.

30. All subawards ("subgrants") must have specific federal authorization The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements for authorization of any subaward. This condition applies to agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants administrative requirements -- OJP considers a "subaward" (and therefore does not consider a procurement "contract").

The details of the requirement for authorization of any subaward are posted on the OJP web site City of San Rafael
