Exhibit A

SCOPE OF WORK:

1. Proposal shall include details of food supply and/or food distribution services to be provided, the tasks to be accomplished, duration of the program (proposals may be up to two years) and the deliverables to be provided

United Across Borders Foundation has developed a tried-and-true approach to setting up well- run and orderly food distribution operations. We work with a wide range of partners, including Amazon Fresh, Giving Children Hope, Fundacion Sahuayo, Albertsons, Abound Food Organization, Food Finders, and we continue to develop relationships with new grocery stores, food banks, and corporations. Our partners reach out to us when they have donations; we collect the donations, store and/or distribute them at events targeted at Santa Ana’s most at- risk, low-income communities. For these events, we coordinate all outreach, staffing and organization, and provide participants with additional information about social services and support in their communities.

With support from the Revive Santa Ana funds, we will immediately double, if not triple, our ability to collect, store, and deliver food throughout Santa Ana. During the pandemic, we held one to two food distribution events each month, typically serving between 350-500 families at each event. With the support of the Revive Santa Ana grant, we will host at least one event per week in low-income communities throughout Santa Ana. Our proposed program has a duration of one year.

Our deliverables for the Revive Santa Ana grant will be as follows:

1. Hold one to two large events per week, 10 to 18 events in the 12 month grant period in low-income Santa Ana communities. Based on our average event size of 400, we estimate serving a total of 17,000 families during our one-year time frame. Low-income communities will be identified using QCT data and relevant economic data from huduser.gov and justicemap.org.

2. Track our efforts by collecting data via pre-registration and registration while participants wait in line for their donated goods. Information will be collected both online and on paper, to accommodate the spectrum of capabilities of Santa Ana residents.

3. Track and count very low-income families and place them in our UABF Palanca Program. A family in the Palanca Program will be a family in dire need of our services and at great or imminent risk of malnutrition and/or eviction due to lack of income because of citizenship status, illness, disability, or other hardship as determined by UAB census data and/or registration form submitted. These families may opt into a food delivery program to either pick up items at smaller events for Palanca Program participants, or may opt to have them delivered through our Food Box Delivery program.

We will engage at least 3,500 families/6,0000 residents be a part of our UABF Palanca Program.

City Council 17 – 138 3/1/2022

4. We will identify and deliver meals to 1,500 seniors (over the age of 65), immunocompromised individuals, caretakers of people with disabilities who are living alone or unable to leave their home due to illness, lack of transportation, or difficulty with mobility.

5. We will provide diapers, formula, wipes or any other item that is donated from our sponsor Baby2Baby and serve 1000 infants per month or 12,000 infants at 1 year ending

Over the years and particularly during the 2020-21 pandemic, we have developed relationships with various grocery stores, food banks, and corporations with surplus products. Our partners include Amazon Fresh, Northgate, Walmart, Giving Children Hope, and Food Finders. We are also in the process of establishing a partnership with the Second Harvest Bank as well as additional food donors. Our process for gathering donations, and the type and condition of donated products, varies from company to company. For example, Amazon Fresh reaches out to us when they have excess food that is fresh, not expired, and unopened, but for whatever reason was sent back or rejected by the consumer. We then go pick up the food, put it in storage or take it to a food distribution site. If we do not have storage but we have a place to do a food distribution, we distribute the goods right away. This in particular means meat, dairy, and other perishable products, which can be challenging to distribute rapidly Grant funding from Revive Santa Ana will allow us to buy a used forklift, and a large storage space, removing time pressures and ensuring that we can distribute all the donations we receive at locations where they will have the greatest positive impact.

The tasks that will go in place for food distribution events are as follows:

1. Identify and map low-income communities in Santa Ana to target for food distribution events.

2. Partner with the City of Santa Ana, allied nonprofits, the Mexican consulate, and neighborhood leaders to help us secure locations, dates, and volunteers.

3. Collect food supply with our trucks on a continuous basis, including both scheduled pickups and the ability to provide short-notice pickups.

4. Deliver perishable food items to refrigerated storage location and non-perishable and other items to our other storage locations.

1. At each food distribution event, key leadership positions will be staffed by experienced Directors of Special Events named in our Organizational Structure Chart. These Directors will delegate staff and volunteers to the following roles:
- Traffic Control Coordinator
- Guides traffic to parking areas and facilitates quick drop-off and pickup for participants of vendors.

City Council 17 – 139 3/1/2022
- Food Vendor Coordinator
- Works with food vendors to make sure proper food handling permits are used - Artesania Vendor Coordinator
- Works with merchandise vendors and tells them where to go - Food Line Coordinator
- Works with staff and volunteers to set up canopies and distribution areas, including separating products, coordinating storage and packaging. - Attendees Coordinator
- Works with volunteers to organize the line of participants, ensuring that it stays orderly and does not obstruct public sidewalks or other areas. - Truck Unloading Coordinator
- Works with a team to unload trucks and organize products for the Food Line Coordinator and their team.
- Event Coordinator
- Coordinates among all coordinators to ensure areas are properly staffed, communication is clear, and the event is running smoothly.

6. 2. Proposal shall include details of the target population

UABF has a long history of serving undocumented residents, mixed status families, and immigrant communities in Santa Ana. We have provided food distribution events to low-income and working poor communities in the Logan, Townsend, Lacy, Minnie St, Myrtle, and Santa Anita neighborhoods, among others These communities have large proportions of members who work in low-income service industries and in agriculture, where workers are disproportionately undocumented, have precarious employment, experience low wages and discrimination, and lack benefits and safe working conditions.

We are particularly targeting families who live in apartments and households with multiple families living in one home. Due to skyrocketing rents in recent years and the fact that Santa Ana has one of the highest rents and house prices of North Orange County cities, many residents must pay 60% or more of their income for their housing or “double up” with other families in a single unit, leading to overcrowding and its accompanying challenges. . High housing costs and low wages put families in precarious situations. Sometimes seniors have to choose between paying rent or paying for life saving medications, parents have to choose between paying rent and buying fresh foods, and college students and graduates must remain with their parents because they can’t afford to rent on their own. By providing the basic needs of each family, a plate of fresh and healthy food on their table, it will help ease their burden. This then may allow young people to save for a car or for first-and-last months’ rent to secure an apartment, allow families to pay their rent on time without the added stress or damage to their credit, and give seniors and disabled residents a much needed respite from their expenses.

City Council 17 – 140 3/1/2022

3. Proposal shall include details of the unmet need
To our knowledge, we are the largest organization providing food distributions focused in Santa Ana. We have nevertheless been unable to meet the needs of our community due to our lack of storage and delivery capacity. Through our social media engagement on Facebook, we are constantly receiving messages from communities in need asking us when our next event will be, if we could come to their side of town, if we will have more baby products like diapers and formula, and other requests for aid and support. During our events, to prevent having people wait in our long lines and not receive a groceries box, we often have to cut the lines off because of the demand being greater than the supply. With funding from Revive Santa Ana, we will to be able to meet unmet needs of 20 different neighborhoods in Santa Ana and serve thousands more people who need our services.

As an example, the zip code 92707 was one of the hardest hit by the pandemic, with some of the highest rates of covid cases and deaths in all of California. Yet while benefits like stimulus checks and unemployment benefits have now ended, these communities are still trying to recover from the impacts of lost and disabled family members, health care costs, ongoing unemployment, and lost wages. or those who were undocumented, they had to face the economic downturn and health crisis largely without public assistance.. Many went through their savings while others fell into debt. Many residents opted to leave to another state or back to their homelands, contributing to the exodus of children from our schools. Some families lost their head of household, or another family member that contributed to the household costs.

These communities need our continued support and we cannot leave them behind.

4. Proposal shall include details of collaborations with local organizations In our experience, the problems in our communities are intersectional, meaning that the challenges faced by different racial/ethnic, income, gender or other groups are overlapping and interconnected. In that understanding, we find it essential and imperative that we work with partners and allies in the community to provide services outside of our expertise or focus. - We partner with Latino Health Access to offer their “promotora” services to the community. UABF has worked with them and the OC Health Care Agency to provide free COVID tests and vaccines during our food distributions. - We partner with OCCCO PICO, a faith-based nonprofit that advocates for migrant rights.

They bring education on issues affecting our Santa Ana residents as well as opportunities to get immigration help for free or at very low costs. - We partner with OC Trans Latina which represents the latinx trangender community in OC that is fighting for their rights to be respected and supported in their efforts to fight against discrimination and violence against themm.

UABF also has partnered with the City of Santa Ana, Anaheim, La Habra, Fullerton, Buena Park, Orange, Costa Mesa during the pandemic to provide food, medical supplies, and other services to their respective residents.

5. Proposal shall include details of innovation in program/service delivery

City Council 17 – 141 3/1/2022
If our bid is approved, we will use the funds to expand, and doubling our capacities to serve more communities throughout Santa Ana.
- The addition of additional infrastructure like a forklift and refrigerated storage will increase our ability to leverage existing donations. Freed from time pressures associated with perishable items like dairy or meat products, we will be able to distribute donations at the locations where they are most needed. Having a forklift will not only speed up our pickups and deliveries and reduce our need for manpower, but it will also enable us to do simultaneous deliveries and pickups at two different locations. - Our biggest innovation is the creation of our UABF Dispensa Delivery program. This will be a program similar to Meals on Wheels that will allow us to deliver food directly to hard hit community members that are part of Palanca program through individual food deliveries or localized, smaller food distributions that take less manpower than our larger events. Not only will the Palanca program help us target the communities and individuals most in need, but it specifically accommodates the needs of individuals who continue to be most affected by the pandemic (including seniors, immunocompromised people, disabled people, caregivers, and young families).

B. On July 20, 2021, the Santa Ana City Council authorized the City Manager to utilize ARPA SLFRF funding from the United States Department of Treasury for the Revive Santa Ana Spending Plan, which includes five spending categories:
recovery from the pandemic, direct assistance programs, public health and safety, critical infrastructure, and city fiscal health.

C. CONTRACTOR has been selected by the CITY to receive ARPA SLFRF Funds in order to provide food distribution and/or food supply programs, in accordance with the Scope of Work attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference (“said program”).

D. CONTRACTOR agrees that it will adhere to the tasks and services as indicated in Exhibit A for said program. Failure to follow the requirements and meet the stated expectations may constitute breach of contract that could result in termination of this Agreement or serve as reason for the CITY to recapture the grant fun ds awarded to CONTRACTOR pursuant to this Agreement.

WHEREFORE, it is agreed by and between the parties that the foregoing Recitals are a substantive part of this Agreement and the following terms and conditions are approved and together with all exhibits and attachments hereto, shall constitute the entire Agreement between the CITY and CONTRACTOR:

Latino Health Access Weekly Food Distribution Program
RFP 22-009A REVIVE Santa Ana: Food Supply/Distribution Programs

EXHIBIT A

1. Proposal shall include details of food supply and/or food distribution services to be provided, the tasks to be accomplished, duration of the program (proposals may be up to two years) and the deliverables to be provided.

The Goal of Latino Health Access’ Weekly Food Distribution Program is to mitigate food insecurity among working-class, Latinx residents of Santa Ana.

Objectives:

Within a two-year grant period, Latino Health Access will accomplish the following objectives:

1. Conduct 4,500 outreach contacts annually in working-class neighborhoods of Santa Ana to promote food distribution.

2. Provide a minimum of 46 food distribution events annually for City of Santa Ana residents.

3. Provide food supply to 800 Santa Ana residents per month through food distribution events.

4. Distribute at least 3,000 diapers per month to Santa Ana families.

Program Description:

Latino Health Access (LHA) promotores will continue to organize a weekly food distribution with a diaper distribution once a month at LHA’s main facility (450 W. 4th Street, Santa Ana, CA, 92701). This location is central to the city and has ease of access through public transportation, although a majority of residents are from the 92701 Zip Code. The weekly distribution will accommodate a walk-thru and drive-thru format to make it accessible for Santa Ana communities without a car.

Activities:
● Outreach (Timeline: Ongoing, during the duration of the grant)—Occurring via door-to-door, in shopping centers and other community-based locations, through outreach, LHA Promotores are able to inform community members of the food distribution resource, as well as answer any questions or concerns (e.g. assure community members that LHA will not require legal immigration status, payment, or other requirement that may dissuade members of the community from utilizing this resource).

During the COVID-19 pandemic, LHA expanded its presence in neighborhoods that lack infrastructure to deploy services and successfully reached and trained community leaders to assist in building such infrastructure for communication and action. LHA will continue to leverage these networks to conduct ongoing outreach to promote the food distribution and to informally assess needs related to food insecurity in these neighborhoods. LHA will also disseminate information via social media channels on Facebook and Instagram to widen our reach.
● Food (and Diaper) Distribution Events—the food distribution begins at 12 noon with the first hour designed to accommodate walk-ins who do not have access to a car. From 2PM-4PM, the food distribution is set-up to accommodate distribution to individuals in vehicles. Registration occurs onsite for individuals attending the food distribution, and those who have previously attended other food distribution events are provided a voucher City Council 17 – 175 3/1/2022
Latino Health Access Weekly Food Distribution Program
RFP 22-009A REVIVE Santa Ana: Food Supply/Distribution Programs to “check-in” rather than complete the registration process. The food distribution process is open to all Santa Ana residents, regardless of citizenship.

LHA Promotores and volunteers set-up between 8AM-12 Noon in the parking lot of the LHA main facility, setting up different stations with fresh produce and other food staples.

Prior to entering the food distribution, participants are provided a basic COVID-19 screening. All food distribution events also require significant infrastructure to set-up in a physically-distanced manner and to ensure that all COVID-19 safety protocols are being followed. Individuals and families go through the different stations to pick up their food, minimizing waste by increasing choice. When boxes are pre-packaged, volunteers help to place food boxes into personal carts or carrying equipment brought by participants.

Participants who bring their vehicles are provided their food via no-contact methods to minimize risk of COVID-19 transmission.
● Diaper Distribution—LHA receives a monthly supply of diapers size 0-5 from the CAPOC Diaper Bank. The second Friday of the month, a diaper distribution assembly is incorporated into the weekly food distribution allowing low-income families with young children to access this additional resource. Each month, LHA provides an average of 5,000 diapers to benefit approximately 80 families and over 100 children.

2. Proposal shall include details of the target population Latino Health Access will prioritize food distribution for working-class, primarily Latinx individuals and families living in the 92701 Zip Codes. However, our food distribution is open to all Santa Ana residents and has had participation from diverse demographics, given the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which is still felt in working-class communities. Our participants live in households that are foreign-born (93%) and have household incomes of less than $30,000 (88%). In addition, educational attainment among parents in these households is significantly less than their counterparts in more affluent areas of the city. Often, participants are single mothers who also experience housing insecurity and a range of other social determinants of health, creating additional economic burden that increases food insecurity.

3. Proposals Should Include Details of Unmet Need
According to the OC Healthier Together Dashboard, Orange County has a food insecurity rate of

8.3%. Yet, marked by the darker green at the center of the map, Santa Ana Zip Codes (92701, 92703, 92707, 92704) experience food insecurity at higher rates (marked by a 5 on the food insecurity, index, the highest ranking, signaling the greatest food insecurity). Residents of these Zip Codes are working-class and were among the first affected by economic instability in the COVID-19 pandemic, the impact of which continues to limit families’ abilities to address the resulting social needs, including food insecurity. In
addition, some families may not qualify for
existing relief programs (e.g. SNAP) or do not have
access to enrollers who can also address their
questions related to immigration and SNAP
eligibility. Even if the COVID-19 pandemic ended

RFP 22-009A REVIVE Santa Ana: Food Supply/Distribution Programs swiftly, addressing food insecurity that has been exacerbated during the pandemic will require additional support systems, including ongoing access to food supply for these families while simultaneously taking an approach to build systems change for the eradication of food insecurity over the long-term.

4. Proposal shall include details of collaborations with local organizations For its food distribution program, LHA collaborates with the following local entities:
● Second Harvest Food Bank and OC Food Bank—manage securing the food supply and other resources that are distributed at LHA. They arrange pick-up times and LHA staff manage the entirety of packaging, transportation, and distribution. ● Community Action Partnership of Orange Diaper Bank – LHA answered the call of the Diaper Bank at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic to connect families in need to diapers, at a time when they and other partners had to pause direct services. The partnership has remained as there has been an ongoing need for diapers among the families served in the weekly food distribution. LHA receives approximately 6,000 diapers a month to distribute.
● Downtown Family Resource Center, Local Schools, and Churches –LHA has a network of partners that refer families to the food and diaper distribution event each week. Flyers are shared regularly along with other educational information on services and partners disseminate with their constituency. This allows us to reach more families throughout Santa Ana. Key partners include Downtown Family Resource Center housed at LHA, SAUSD FACE, and Scholarship Prep Academy.

5. Proposal shall include details of innovation in program/service delivery Latino Health Access programming combines evidence-based practices with community expertise to best meet the needs of our community while strengthening community assets and enhancing capacity. Over the last year, LHA has collaborated with public health researchers to understand the impact of the pandemic. In an article published in the Harvard Journal of Hispanic Policy , we find that our communities experienced the economic impact of the1 pandemic first, especially immigrant communities who remained civically disconnected from health and social systems due to structural exclusion. In a subsequent article published in Preventing Chronic Disease, a CDC-sponsored journal , we analyze data from LHA’s Emotional2 Wellness program pre and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Results show that while mental health/emotional wellness concerns do not disappear, there is a significant shift from our community toward seeking referrals and resources related to social needs, including those that will reduce increasing food insecurity. This research shows the interconnectedness of food insecurity, other social determinants of health, and overall mental health/emotional wellness of 2 Moon, K. J., Montiel, G. I., Cantero, P.

Lastly, in our most recent publication , we analyze the ways in which LHA3 promotores have worked at the center of direct services, community capacity-building and policy and systems change to improve our response to the COVID-19 pandemic and ensuing health and social needs.

Across these different peer-reviewed publications, we have worked with Promotores on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic to highlight the following innovations in our model, which includes the work of mitigating food insecurity:
● Combination of direct services. LHA combines its food distribution with distribution of diapers, accessibility of information, among others. This limits the number of times that community needs to show up to our facility, which is most efficient given their limited availability. Our community is over-represented in low-wage essential services, which may not allow them to have time off to access multiple services if conducted on different days.
● Combination of direct services with long-term policy, systems, and environmental change. While provision of food distribution services will alleviate immediate need, LHA’s promotores also work with community members to understand data, to present data to relevant stakeholders, and to work collaboratively toward systems change that will address food insecurity as well as other social determinants of health. Throughout our food distribution program, LHA has also built community capacity to organize, to plan in accordance with safety protocols, and to innovate ways to expand food distribution to other neighborhoods (conducting pilots of neighborhood- and apartment complex-based distribution).

LHA provides the opportunity for individuals who live in the communities that are most impacted by inequities to partner with us to lead solutions.

SECTION 5: DATA COLLECTING, REPORTING AND COMPLIANCE
Data Collection and Evaluation Process measures will be collected for all activities and will include: the number of individuals reached and engaged throughout each activity in our food distribution work. Where possible, LHA will collect demographics and types of services each participant received. LHA will track on a monthly basis the reach of each service and when significant shifts occur, LHA will conduct informal interviews with community leaders to better understand how to pivot to meet the community’s emerging needs.

Latino Health Access Weekly Food Distribution Program
RFP 22-009A REVIVE Santa Ana: Food Supply/Distribution Programs By operating a weekly food distribution program and tracking services provided to working-class individuals in Santa Ana, Latino Health Access program staff and evaluation department is able to provide the required initial report that describes efforts to date to promote equity in the services to disproportionately impacted communities, as required by the Compliance and Reporting Guidance. Our program is intended to mitigate food insecurity in households within the City of Santa Ana and falls within the types of programs explicitly mentioned under the “Negative Economic Impacts” category. The guidelines also specify integrating strategies that advance racial equity. LHA’s focus on Latinx and immigrant populations advance this goal.

2. The proposal shall include details on how the organization will service people in a Qualified Service Tract (QCT) (See link for below for map). If service is not in a QCT, how will the organization support their determination that the pandemic resulted in disproportionate public health or economic outcomes to the specific population, household, or geographic area served.

Services proposed will primarily be implemented in
the 92701 Zip Code and in similar Zip Codes in the
City of Santa Ana, which include numerous QCTs.

We have intentionally selected these geographic areas
because they are those with the most social
vulnerabilities that provide a context for food
insecurity. The map shown (left) represents the
primary service area and is inclusive of the
geographic location of LHA’s two service sites. The
map shows the food insecurity index by Census Tract,
where central Santa Ana’s census tracts have higher
food insecurity than in surrounding areas.

2. The proposal shall include details on how the organization will comply with 2 CFR part 200 (Uniform Administrative Requirements)
Latino Health Access is experienced in managing public funds, including those that are granted by federal agencies. Fulfillment of the Uniform Administrative Requirements will be ensured by a team that includes the Chief Program Officer, the Program Coordinator, and the Director of Finance. LHA maintains an active System for Award Management account and has in place the appropriate policies and procedures to abide by the required fiscal guidelines and cost principles.

LHA will conduct the required federal awards audit in a timely manner and maintain current staff training to ensure compliance.

event revenue, as well as
through its consulting
social enterprise. In
addition, LHA has a robust
finance and accounting
team to ensure that
invoices are promptly and
accurately submitted to
minimize additional delays.

REVIVE: SANTA ANA FOOD SUPPLY/ DISTRIBUTION PROGRAMS
RFP NO.: 22-009A
MPNA GREEN Programs, a fiscally sponsored project of OneOC Scope of Work
This grant will support the food assistance component of MPNA-GREEN’s COVID-19 in the Southeast Santa Ana project. The health and socio-economic impacts due to COVID-19 including rate of infection, deaths, job loss or loss of income, and risk of eviction have been and continue to be overrepresented in Anaheim, Garden Grove, and Santa Ana in comparison to other cities in Orange County (Parks et al. 2020). These impacts have also been disproportionately felt by Orange County’s Hispanic Community (according to OCHCA dashboard). In Southeast Santa Ana, the impact and need are exacerbated given that this area of Santa Ana and in particular, neighborhoods including Minnie Street and Cedar Evergreen were severely economically disadvantaged and housing insecure before the Pandemic.

In April 2020, MPNA-GREEN in collaboration with Madison Elementary, Santa Ana Unified School District, Radio Santa Ana and University of California, Irvine offered its first COVID-19 virtual information town hall as part of our health & wellness programs. This served to provide clear and culturally appropriate health communication to residents of Southeast Santa Ana.

Subsequent town halls have taken place in July 2020 and January 2021, February, March and April in 2021. The sessions will continue in order to prevent more transmission, increase vaccinations, and recover from COVID-19. Since this time, MPNA-GREEN has also grown its COVID-19 response to include the COVID-19 Information Sessions and also (1) food assistance, (2) a rental assistance program, (3) vaccination outreach and recruitment, (4) an adult health Promoter Training, (5) Youth Education Curriculum, and (6) efforts to Measure the Impact of the Pandemic in this Community. This growing response and recovery plan is the project, COVID-19 in Southeast Santa Ana, for which we are seeking funding from Revive Santa Ana.

This grant will provide food assistance to community members who have not been able to access food assistance so far. These neighbors include those who are food insecure but who lack transportation or experience other barriers to mobility to access food assistance locations that we offer at Madison Elementary. Through a partnership with UCI and UCLA, MPNA- GREEN received a Community Engagement Alliance (CEAL) grant from the National Institutes of Health with the purpose of getting the community vaccinated as soon as possible.

Exhibit A
City Council 17 – 217 3/1/2022

MPNA-GREEN has recruited 10 promotoras who are from the community. These promotoras will identify the households that are food insecure as described above. The criteria for people to receive food vouchers includes: 1) Losing a job 2) Losing a family member due to COVID-19, and 3) Hospitalization due to covid-19. MPNA-GREEN will purchase food vouchers from Gonzales Market. These vouchers exclude the purchase of alcohol and tobacco. With this grant, promotoras will be able to provide $300 food vouchers (estimated monthly grocery costs for household) for over 100 families. This grant specifically will fund 419 households and be matched with other funding sources.

When the promotoras interact with neighbors they will also be connecting them to local, state, and federal resources to meet other needs. This grant will support the food assistance program for 18 months between March 2021- May 2022. MPNA-GREEN staff will oversee the food assistance program and CEAL promotoras will implement the program by delivering vouchers.

This program will leverage these promotoras as trusted messengers, making the food distribution voucher program unique by having and paying community residents to distribute the resources. Providing food assistance and other resources that meet people’s basic needs (e.g., rental assistance) will also build trust of the promotoras which will strengthen their messaging and hopefully also have the added benefit of increasing vaccination rates.

MPNA-GREEN has a vital and growing network of partners that have been critical to our accomplishments including previous food voucher distribution campaigns. Key partners include James Madison Elementary School (see letter of support), and Century High School. Other key partners include organizations with whom MPNA-GREEN formed the El Plan Del Pueblo Coalition. El Plan Del Pueblo Coalition is a group of organizations that is advocating and working with the City of Santa Ana government to ensure that the update to the city’s general plan and subsequent element updates follow SB1000 and prioritize environmental justice.

These organizations include Orange County Environmental Justice, The Kennedy Commission, Santa Ana Active Streets Coalition, El Centro Cultural de México, Thrive Santa Ana Community Land Trust, Rise Up Willowick. These organizations are critical to our work and help leverage more resident engagement which is key to MPNA-GREEN’s mission and the goals of this grant to continue building community capacity. Because of our long-standing history in Santa Ana, we already have strong relationships based on past collaborations with these entities that are ready to be activated if we want to expand the scope geographically to the other environmental justice communities and topically.

Staff Report

TOPIC: Resolution in Support of Assembly Bill 485
AGENDA TITLE:

Resolution in Support of Assembly Bill 485 Requiring All Law Enforcement Agencies to Report Hate Crime Data on Their Own Website

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution in support of Assembly Bill 485 requiring all law enforcement agencies to report hate crime data on their own website.

DISCUSSION
Background
At the February 1, 2022 City Council meeting, Mayor Pro Tem Bacerra added the following councilmember requested item: Discuss and consider directing the City Manager to direct staff to draft a resolution to support Assembly Bill (AB) 485. AB 485 would require local law enforcement agencies to report hate crime data on their own website monthly. There was consensus among all members of the City Council to proceed with the agenda item.

Hate Crime and Hate Incident: Definitions
California Penal Code section 422.55, defines Hate Crime as being a criminal act committed, in whole or in part, because of one or more of the following actual or perceived characteristics of the victim: Disability, Gender, Nationality, Race or Ethnicity, Religion, Sexual Orientation, or association with a person or group of persons with one or more of the preceding actual or perceived characteristics. Examples may include painting racist, homophobic and/or religious graffiti on private property; burning a cross on an individual’s lawn; an assault; a criminal threat of violence against an individual or group; attempted murder or murder.

A bias related incident is behavior that is motivated by hate or bias towards a person’s actual or perceived disability, gender, nationality, race or ethnicity, religion or sexual orientation but that is not criminal in nature. Typically these behaviors are protected by the First Amendment right to freedom of expression. If this type of activity escalates to City Council 18 – 1 3/1/2022

threats being made or carried out against a person or property, or becomes an incitement to commit violence it would be classified as a hate crime. Examples may include the distribution of non-threatening racist flyers in a public place; displaying non-threatening anti-gay or lesbian placards at a parade or funeral; writing a letter to the editor ridiculing people with disabilities; painting racist graffiti on a freeway overpass.

A hate crime or incident may have occurred if any of the following were present: there was a perception that the victim was targeted because of their race, gender, sexual orientation, nationality, religion etc.; the perpetrator wrote or spoke in a manner that indicated bias; and the date of the incident or crime coincides with a date that is of significance to the victim’s religion, nationality, ethnicity etc.

Increase in Hate Crimes
In California, the number of hate crime events have fluctuated over the last decade. In the last 10 years, hate crime events have increased by 25.5 percent with 1,060 reported in 2011 and 1,330 reported in 2020. The lowest year for reported hate crime events was 2014 with 758 events. Hate crime events increased 31.0 percent from 1,015 in 2019 to 1,330 in 2020. Hate crime offenses increased 23.9 percent from 1,261 in 2019 to 1,563 in 2020. The number of victims of reported hate crimes increased 23.2 percent from 1,247 in 2019 to 1,536 in 2020.

Existing Reporting Requirements and Practices
The state is able to collect and analyze these statistics because of California Penal Code Section 13023, which requires the Attorney General to direct local law enforcement agencies to report information relating to hate crimes to the Department of Justice (DOJ), as specified. It also requires DOJ to post that information on a specified internet website on or before July 1 of each year. Although the state publishes this hate crime statistics online, it does not include detailed information by city or local agency. Assembly Bill 485 would further increase transparency and open government by requiring all local law enforcement agencies to post the information sent to the department on their local agency internet website on a monthly basis.

The Santa Ana Police Department is one of the few cities in the state that currently posts hate crime related data on the city website. This was in response to direction received at the City Council meeting on April 6, 2021, where Mayor Pro Tem Bacerra and Councilmember Phan presented an item that directed the City Manager to direct Police Department staff to post monthly reports of hate crime-related data on the Santa Ana Police Department website. From January 2020 to December 2021, the Santa Ana Police Department documented 35 Hate Crimes. The Bias-Motivations for these crimes include 13 religious in nature, 15 pertaining to race, ethnicity or national origin and seven (7) pertaining to sexual orientation. Additional information about each particular incident is available at www.santa-ana.org/pd/open-government-and-transparency-initiative/hate- crime-reports.

In addition to posting hate crime data on the city website, the Santa Ana Police Department regularly submits this information to the Orange County Human Relations Commission (Commission) to incorporate in their annual hate crimes report. The Commission’s most recent report, released in September 2021, showed an overall increase of 35% in reported hate crimes in Orange County. In 2020 alone, there was an alarming rise in hate incidents. There was a 69% increase in the total number of hate incidents reported in 2020. Of the 263 reported cases, there was a 114% increase in antisemitic hate incidents, an 1800% increase motivated by anti-Asian hate, and a 23% increase motivated by anti-Black hate.

Resolution
Attached for consideration by the City Council is a resolution (Exhibit 1) in support of AB 485 to require all law enforcement agencies throughout the state to post hate crime data monthly on their own website.

TOPIC: Notification of Intent to Comply with California Senate Bill 1383

AGENDA TITLE
Resolution Authorizing Execution of Notification of Intent to Comply with California Senate Bill 1383 Organic Waste Recycling Regulations

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City of Santa Ana to submit to CalRecycle a Notification of Intent to Comply with California Senate Bill 1383 Organic Waste Recycling Regulations.

DISCUSSION
In September 2016, Governor Jerry Brown signed Senate Bill (SB) 1383 into law, setting statewide methane reduction targets. The targets include requirements to reduce organic waste sent to landfills, such as food waste, paper products, and green waste, by 75 percent, and rescue 20 percent of edible food by 2025.

To achieve this goal, SB 1383 requires cities to implement the following actions by January 1, 2022: adopt a mandatory recycling ordinance; provide new organics recycling services to all residential, multi-family properties, and commercial businesses; develop an edible food recovery program; purchase organic materials and recycled content paper products; require franchise solid waste services provider to comply with SB 1383 through the City franchise agreement; and establish compliance, enforcement, education, and reporting programs.

In recognition of the challenges facing local jurisdictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Newsom signed SB 619 into law in October 2021. This bill allows local jurisdictions to submit a Notification of Intent to Comply (NOIC) to CalRecycle for relief from civil penalties for calendar year 2022. The NOIC describes the SB 1383 regulatory items that are delayed, includes a schedule for completing the remaining actions, and contains justification supporting the updated timeline. Requests for approval of an NOIC must include an approved City Council resolution (Exhibit 1).

Solid Waste Collection Regulations) is scheduled for City Council consideration on March 15, 2022. In addition, the new franchise solid waste services agreement with Republic Services will become effective July 1, 2022. It includes all SB 1383 programmatic requirements.

2. A detailed explanation of the reasons why the jurisdiction is unable to comply, supported by documentation, if applicable.

The City has undergone a competitive Request For Proposal (RFP) process for solid waste and recycling collection services. The RFP process, which began in 2015, yielded a franchise agreement that incorporates many of the programmatic requirements of SB 1383 into the franchise as hauler obligations. The franchise was awarded to Republic Services (Republic) on August 17, 2021. The requisite SB 1383 programs will become effective with the franchise on July 1, 2022. However, due to the franchise start date, the City's SB 1383 commercial organics collection programs and multi-family organics collection programs will not be fully implemented for several quarters. Full commercial and multi-family organics implementation is expected to be completed by December 31, 2023 and is driven by several factors.

The franchise agreement initially includes an 'enforced opt-in' compliance approach in which Republic's three Santa Ana dedicated recycling coordinators will provide customized service proposals for all non-compliant accounts. Accounts that do not opt-in to establish compliant service outlined by the recycling coordinators may be referred by the hauler to the City.

Page 3 of 8 ends

City Council 19 – 8 3/1/2022
The City and/or its consultant will then attempt to facilitate program understanding and implementation, and warn accounts that failure to do so will result in code enforcement action.

The City will utilize dedicated code enforcement officers to issue citations to non-compliant accounts as noted in the City's ordinance, approved in April 2022.

The hauler referral process is outlined in Section 4.3.6.1 Site Visits, Education and Outreach of the franchise agreement, an excerpt of which is included as Attachment 1. The City believes this approach will yield the compliance outcomes required by statute and will lead to higher- levels of generator participation and lower levels of contamination, but will require additional time to execute.

The transition from Waste Management to Republic Services will be an enormous logistical undertaking and will be the key focus of the City's solid waste staff and the franchise hauler over the next 9 months. The transition will greatly increase the City's SB 1383 compliance.

3. A description of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on compliance.

The COVID-19 pandemic will likely extend the delivery of SB 1383 compliant containers. City and hauler staffing will likely be impacted on a go-forward basis, as we have seen with the variants. Many businesses are struggling to remain in business in 2022. These economic impacts have delayed the implementation of organics recycling services available under the City's existing franchise with Waste Management.

4. Provide a description of the proposed actions the jurisdiction will take to remedy the violations with a proposed schedule for completing each action. The proposed actions shall be tailored to remedy the violations in a timely manner. See optional format below.

See the attached Continuing Violations Supplemental Attachment, Attachment 2.

SB 1383 Continuing Violations Supplemental Attachment
Description: The City has not fully implemented compliant organic waste collection services for all commercial businesses and multi- family complexes.

Note: The City's current franchise hauler, Waste Management, offers varying levels of trash, recycling, and food waste collection services to businesses and multi-family in the City. The City currently offers commercial food waste recycling and commercial and multi-family commingled recycling services with Waste Management until June 30, 2022. Additionally, the City underwent an RFP process for a new hauler agreement that aligns with SB 1383 and selected Republic Waste Services as its new franchise hauler in 2021. The new franchise agreement, which contains all SB 1383-required programs including commercial and multi-family full organics recycling programs, will be effective July 1, 2022. Mandatory collection of all waste streams is required under the City's mandatory ordinance that will go into effect April 2022. The City will need until December 31, 2023 to implement organics recycling programs at all non-compliant generators via the enforced 'opt-in' approach described in the franchise agreement.

Explanation:

Per Continuing Violation #1, until the new franchise agreement is effective on July 1, 2022, the City is unable to provide a full menu of compliant organic waste collection services to commercial businesses and multi-family accounts, that meet the requirements of Section 18984.1 - 18984.3.

Ongoing program roll-out and container delivery for commercial businesses and multi-family accounts will take an estimated 18 months using the enforced 'opt-in' approach described in the franchise agreement. Rollout of programs are estimated to be significantly onerous for the City and franchise hauler due to limited container supply and order delays.

TOPIC: Memorandum of Understanding with Discovery Cube
AGENDA TITLE:

Memorandum of Understanding between City of Santa Ana and Discovery Cube to Pursue Grant Applications and Study the Feasibility of a Future Outdoor Science Park on Adjacent City-Owned Property (Non-General Fund)

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Authorize the City Manager to execute a Memorandum of Understanding with Discovery Cube for a period of March 1, 2022 to March 1, 2024, to pursue grant applications and study the feasibility of a future Outdoor Science Park on adjacent City-owned property, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney.

DISCUSSION
The Discovery Cube is a nationally recognized science center located in Santa Ana, with a mission to bring hands-on science education to the children of our community. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Discovery Cube has had to temporarily shut down many of its indoor exhibits and is currently in need of outdoor exhibit space.

The Discovery Cube and the City have had a long-standing partnership for over 22 years, providing educational resources, STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) programming, and community cultural activities. This partnership includes a monthly Santa Ana Free Day for all residents to enjoy the Discovery Cube and its resources.

The City owns a stretch of land adjacent to Discovery Cube and along Santiago Creek that is in need of activation and long-term maintenance. The City is continuously spending resources on service calls to clean and police this area. The property (Exhibit B) is located on a current bike trail and several open spaces between Main Street on the East, Broadway on the West, Discovery Cube property line on the South, and the Santiago Creek bed on the North.

Santiago Creek is a critical flood control facility and designated watershed of the United States that is governed by various regulatory agencies, and Discovery Cube will be City Council 20 – 1 3/1/2022

responsible for obtaining approval for any use of the creek property from all applicable regulatory agencies.

The Discovery Cube desires to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding with the City to pursue grant applications and explore the feasibility of a future Outdoor Science Park (Exhibit C) on the aforementioned city-owned property.

The Outdoor Science Park is envisioned to provide STEM and Nature Education to Santa Ana’s youth through an exciting blend of hands-on STEM exhibits with elements of nature. The Science Park will have several featured exhibits positioned throughout the Creekside property, along with flexible zones for exhibits to change seasonally (Spring- Earth Focus, October- Halloween, December- Winter Holiday). The featured exhibits envisioned for the science park include the Water Science Zone, Hydrology Lab, 3D Model of Santiago Creek, River Race Challenge Table, Ice Age Fossil Lab, and a Drone Test-Flying Course. A lush native garden will be created throughout the park, designed to attract butterflies and aide them in their migration. Recreational trails will be specifically designed for children to climb and explore, and is a key feature to the Outdoor Science Park. Additionally, a pavilion overlooking the creek will be created for children on school field trips to enjoy their lunch and for after-school children to engage in nature programming.

The Discovery Cube has met with the adjacent neighborhood associations of Floral Park and Park Santiago who have expressed their support of the idea. Discovery Cube would like to apply for a statewide park development and community revitalization grant, which will enable the Discovery Cube to begin the feasibility study and then potential construction of the Park.

The MOU would facilitate collaboration between the City and Discovery Cube to explore these initiatives and projects.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

TOPIC: Santa Ana Business Interruption Fund Program
AGENDA TITLE:

Approve the Santa Ana Business Interruption Fund program to provide financial relief to businesses impacted by the OC Streetcar Construction in the Amount of $1,500,000 (General Fund)

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the Santa Ana Business Interruption Fund program in the amount of $1,500,000 to provide financial relief to businesses impacted by the OC Streetcar construction.

DISCUSSION
The Santa Ana Business Interruption Fund program provides financial assistance to small “mom and pop” businesses located along the OC Streetcar transit project that are directly impacted by transit rail construction in Downtown Santa Ana (DTSA). While the OC Streetcar is anticipated to facilitate transportation throughout the community to better connect residents and tourists to the city, the City recognizes the immediate need to assist local businesses that are currently facing economic challenges due to the construction closures on 4th Street.

To help mitigate the economic challenges, eligible businesses may receive up to $10,000.

To qualify, a business must rely on foot traffic flow as their main source of revenue, such as retailers, restaurants, and personal care services. The financial assistance will be based on a tiered system:
Tier 1 – Businesses directly adjacent to construction on 4 th Street Tier 2 – Businesses with a storefront entrance within 100 feet of 4 th Street within the construction zones
Currently, construction is on 4 th Street is occurring between Mortimer and Bush, and between Main and Broadway. As construction moves along 4 th Street, additional businesses may be eligible.

To facilitate the application process, staff will have a physical presence in DTSA to assist City Council 21 – 1 3/1/2022

business owners with completing the application. Outreach efforts will include door-to- door marketing and direct communication with the impacted businesses.

The Santa Ana Business Interruption Fund program, along with other mitigating measures already put in place by the City and Orange County Transportation Authority (such as temporary free parking, improved signage, and augmented security), are intended to minimize the negative economic impacts to the businesses and local residents that are employed by those businesses.

FISCAL IMPACT
Funds in the amount of $1,500,000 are available in the Economic Development Service Enhancement Loans and Grants account (no. 01118810-69152).
