COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: February 8, 2022
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Housing and Human Services Division, Community Development Department
SUBJECT: Introduction Of An Ordinance Amending Affordability Control Covenants For Victoria Hotel And Mental Wellness Center RECOMMENDATION:
That Council introduce and subsequently adopt, by reading of title only, an Ordinance of the Council of the City of Santa Barbara Approving a Second Amendment to an Affordability Control Covenant Imposed on Real Property with People’s Self-Help Housing Corporation Located at 22 East Victoria Street and a First Amendment to Replacement Affordability Control Covenant Imposed on Real Property with Building Hope, LLC Located at 617 Garden Street and Authorizing the Community Development Director to Execute Such Agreements.
Background
Victoria Hotel
People’s Self-Help Housing Corporation (PSHHC), a California nonprofit public benefit corporation, owns the 28-unit affordable housing development at 22 East Victoria Street known as the Victoria Hotel. All units are reserved for rental to Low-Income tenant households earning 80 percent of Area Median Income (AMI) or less by a City Covenant with a term of 60 years (City policy at that time) until 2059.
In 1999, the City provided PSHHC with a loan of $1,130,000 (comprising $430,000 in federal Community Development Block Grant funds and $700,000 in federal HOME funds) for development of the Victoria Hotel. Since that time, required compliance reports and rent rolls have been submitted annually, and loan payments have been made per the terms of the residual-receipts loan. The property continues to comply with the terms of the City loan and Covenant.
PSHHC is refinancing an existing senior loan on the property. The new loan in the amount Agenda Item No. 3
Council Agenda Report
Introduction Of An Ordinance Amending Affordability Control Covenants For Victoria Hotel And Mental Wellness Center
February 8, 2022
of $2,200,000 will be used to pay off the existing first mortgage, cover costs of needed capital improvements, repay the funds PSHHC initially contributed to the development of the project, and fund a reserve account for the property. This will enable the project to maintain a strong operational position and perform needed upgrades, while also assisting PSHHC in developing other affordable-housing projects in line with their mission.
Mental Wellness Center
In order to help finance the construction of the housing portion (Unit 1 of 3) of the Mental Wellness Center (MWC), the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Santa Barbara provided the owner with two loans, one in 2006 for $5.1 million and a subsequent one in 2008, which amended and restated the original loan to add $1.2 million due to unexpected construction cost increases. The combined loan total was $6,300,000. The loan agreement applies to and is secured by Unit 1. As of November 15, 2021, the total balance including accrued interest was $8,989,188.
As a condition of providing financing, the Redevelopment Agency restricted rental of the residential portion of the property to Low- and Very Low-Income households for a period of 60-years (City policy at that time) until 2069.
On December 7, 2009, as is common with Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) financing, the City loan was subordinated to a new senior note in the principal amount of $3,200,000 with Santa Barbara Bank & Trust for permanent financing. At this time, Building Hope, LLC, is acquiring fee title back from MHA Garden Street Apartments, LP, the tax credit investor Limited Partnership, and refinancing the senior debt in order to obtain a lower the interest rate, and extending the amortization period of the loan. The new loan terms will provide greater financial stability with added cash flow from the interest savings and longer term, to help fund ongoing operations and required maintenance needs of the MWC.
Loan Committee Approval
On December 1, 2021, City Council’s authorized Loan Committee reviewed the loan subordination request submitted by People’s Self-Help Housing Corporation and unanimously approved the request for Victoria Hotel, with the recommendation to City Council for approval of extending the Covenant to 2089.
On December 8, 2021, City Council’s authorized Loan Committee reviewed the loan subordination request submitted by Building Hope, LLC, as successor in interest to MHA Garden Street Apartments, LP, and unanimously approved the request for the MWC, with the recommendation to City Council for approval of extending the Covenant to 2099.
Refinancing both loans to lower interest rates with longer amortization terms will increase overall cash flow, which will help sustain the properties’ operations and maintenance requirements while adequately funding reserve accounts for future expenses.
Council Agenda Report
Introduction Of An Ordinance Amending Affordability Control Covenants For Victoria Hotel And Mental Wellness Center
February 8, 2022
Long-Term Affordability
Both Victoria Hotel and the MWC have maintained full compliance with the City’s affordability and reporting requirements. Staff recommends Council extend affordability covenants of each property from 60 to 90 cumulative years, as approved by the City’s Loan Committee, to ensure longer-term affordability at each property. If Council approves extending the covenants, the Victoria Hotel covenant will be extended from a current expiration of 2059 to 2089, and the MWC covenant will be extended from a current expiration of 2069 to 2099. Both extensions require approval by the City Council due to the length of the agreements.
Staff Support
Approving the proposed refinance and extending the affordability covenants to 90 years requires no new funding from the City and does not impact the City’s current title position.
By approving the request, the affordability periods for both properties will be extended significantly, and both owners will be positioned to operate in a manner that is financially sustainable and able to address ongoing maintenance and repair needs.
With the dissolution of the Redevelopment Agency and the source of funding it provided for developing new affordable housing units, it is extremely important to maintain the City’s existing affordable housing inventory.
A copy of the amended covenants are available for public review. Please contact Laura Dubbels ([email protected]) to request a copy.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: February 8, 2022
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: City Administrator’s Office
City Attorney’s Office
SUBJECT: Adoption Of A Resolution Continuing Teleconferencing Of City Meetings During The Ongoing COVID-19 State Of Emergency RECOMMENDATION:
That Council adopt, by reading of title only, a Resolution of the Council of the City of Santa Barbara Extending its Direction that Meetings of the City Council and City Boards and Commissions Continue to be Held by Teleconference as Authorized by Government Code § 54953(e)(1)(A) to Promote Social Distancing and Prioritize the Public’s Health and Well-being Under Santa Barbara County Health Officer Orders.
DISCUSSION:
On January 11, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 22-002 to enable the continued use of teleconferencing for City meetings during the ongoing COVID-19 emergency. On February 1, 2022, the County Health Officer extended the indoor mask mandate, thereby warranting extension of the emergency teleconferencing rules. The City Council and other City boards and commissions had been holding Brown Act meetings by teleconference under the authority of Executive Order N-29-20, which expired on September 30, 2021. On September 16, 2021, Governor Newsom signed Assembly Bill 361 amending Government Code Section 54953 (part of the Brown Act) to add special provisions for teleconference meetings during emergencies. These provisions became applicable on October 1, 2021. The Governor’s March 4, 2020 Proclamation of Emergency related to the COVID-19 pandemic remains in effect.
Likewise, the County Health Officer has continued to issue orders requiring or recommending social distancing. Section 54953(e)(1)(A) authorizes the City Council, Planning Commission, and other City boards and commissions to continue to conduct their meetings as they are currently doing, so long as the current statewide emergency exists and state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing.
Agenda Item No. 4
Council Agenda Report
Adoption Of A Resolution Continuing Teleconferencing Of City Meetings During The Ongoing COVID-19 State Of Emergency
February 8, 2022
The rules for conducting teleconference meetings are slightly modified under the new law and include the following requirements:
Notice of the meeting must still be given in compliance with the Brown Act and the notice must include the means by which the public may access the meeting and provide public comment.
All votes must be by roll-call vote.
The public must be provided access to the meeting via a call-in option or internetbased service option and allowed to “address the legislative body directly.” The agency does not have to provide an in-person option for the public to attend the meeting.
The meeting must be conducted in a manner that protects the statutory and constitutional rights of the parties and the public appearing before the legislative body.
If there is a disruption to the meeting broadcast or in the ability to take call-in or internet-based public comment, no further action can be taken on agenda items until the issue is resolved.
The legislative body cannot require comments to be submitted before the start of the meeting. The public must be allowed to make “real time” public comment. Reasonable time for public comment must be provided. If the agency provides a timed public comment period, the public comment period must be left open until the time expires.
The City has generally complied with these requirements during the COVID-19 emergency.
The new law modifies the rules for “timed” public comment periods. In order to avoid arguable conflicts between the new Brown Act rules and the City Council’s 2018 Rules of Procedure, the proposed Resolution suspends Section 4.12.2 of the Council’s Rules, which establishes the initial 30 minute public comment period at the beginning of the meeting. This approach will retain the Mayor’s power and duty as the presiding officer to manage Council meetings. Moreover, the City is continuing to investigate and implement a teleconference meeting format that provides greater accessibility to the public.
The new law also requires the City Council to make a finding every 30 days that it has reconsidered the circumstances of the state of emergency and either 1) the emergency continues to impact the ability to meet safely in person, or 2) state or local officials continue to impose or recommend social distancing.
Council Agenda Report
Adoption Of A Resolution Continuing Teleconferencing Of City Meetings During The Ongoing COVID-19 State Of Emergency
February 8, 2022
The proposed Resolution will make findings necessary to continue the City’s existing meeting practice so long as the state of emergency exists and State or local officials continue to impose or recommend social distancing. The Council will reconsider the Resolution every 30 days.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: February 8, 2022
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Wendy Levy, Human Resources Director
SUBJECT: Amendment To Position Salary Control Resolution 21-047 With Salary Adjustment For Police Managers
RECOMMENDATION:
That Council adopt, by reading of title only, a Resolution of the Council of the City of Santa Barbara Amending Resolution 21-047, the Position and Salary Control Resolution for Fiscal Year 2022, affecting the salary range for employees in the Police Management Association, effective January 1, 2022.
DISCUSSION:
The City’s Human Resources Department regularly presents amendments to the City Council for approval of changes to the City’s classification and compensation system, and amendments to the Position Salary Control Resolution.
In order to implement a salary adjustment to salaries paid by the City, the City must present the intended adjustment for approval by the Council. California Code of Regulation Subchapter 1, Employee’s Retirement System Regulations Section 570.5 and 571.1 (2 CCR§§ 570.5 and 571.1) require Council to adopt one unified pay schedule that includes all employee classifications whenever any salaries change. The salary schedule must be its own, stand-alone document that the governing body adopts in a publiclynoticed meeting that complies with all open meeting laws. This Council Agenda Report and attachments document the salary adjustment, as required by law.
The salary adjustment of 2.5%, effective January 1, 2022 was previously approved with the current the Memorandum of Understanding for the Police Management Association, which was adopted by Council on August 10, 2021. Today’s action by Council is approving implementation of this previously approved salary adjustment, and approving, in a public setting, the attached pay schedule, as necessary, as described above.

Council Agenda Report
Accept Grant Funding For Pedestrian, Bicyclist And Americans With Disabilities Act Access At Various Locations Throughout The City
February 8, 2022
The City’s Vision Zero Strategy, which was unanimously adopted by Council on September 11, 2018, aims to eliminate all traffic fatalities and severe injuries while increasing safe, healthy, and equitable mobility for all. Staff analyzed traffic collision data to identify corridors with the highest concentrations of fatal and severe traffic collisions, and where transportation efforts and investments can have the greatest results.
The City actively seeks grant funding to make safety and mobility improvements. There are two crucial grant-funding sources for the City’s Vision Zero Strategy: Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) and Active Transportation Program (ATP).
Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)
HSIP is a federally funded grant program administered by Caltrans with the purpose of achieving a significant reduction in fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads. Since 2011, the City has received approximately $8.5 million in HSIP funding.
In the most recent call for projects (HSIP Cycle 10), the City was awarded an additional $4.4 million ($12.9 million to date). The following is a summary of each of the five grantfunded projects. Attachment 1 provides an illustration of the projects’ locations.
HSIP Cycle 10 De La Vina & Los Olivos Pedestrian Crossing Improvements Construct curb extensions to reduce pedestrian crossing distances and improve visibility between pedestrians and approaching drivers
Install intersection lighting to increase the visibility of the crosswalks at nighttime HSIP Cycle 10 De La Vina & Pedregosa Pedestrian Crossing Improvements Construct curb extensions to reduce pedestrian crossing distances and improve visibility between pedestrians and approaching drivers
Install intersection lighting to increase the visibility of the crosswalks at nighttime HSIP Cycle 10 San Andres & Sola Pedestrian Crossing Improvements Construct curb extensions to reduce pedestrian crossing distances and improve visibility between pedestrians and approaching drivers
Install rectangular rapid flashing beacons to warn drivers of crossing pedestrians Install intersection lighting to increase the visibility of the crosswalks at nighttime HSIP Cycle 10 Cliff & Alan Pedestrian Crossing Improvements Improve visibility of pedestrians by realigning the southerly curb line and constructing new Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant access ramps Install approximately 340 feet of new sidewalk infill to connect the existing sidewalks between Arroyo Burro Beach and the Cliff/Las Positas roundabout Install a permanent rectangular rapid flashing beacon system (the current system is temporary)

These appropriations are for the design and environmental review for the projects listed above. Future appropriations will be required as the projects enter the construction phase, which is likely to be in 12 to 18 months. Construction activities are also fully grant funded, no local match will be required. Table 1 provides a funding summary of the HSIP grants.

Active Transportation Program (ATP)
ATP is a state-funded grant program administered by Caltrans to encourage increased use of active modes of transportation, increased safety for non-motorized users, reduced greenhouse gas emissions, and enhanced public health while emphasizing reaching disadvantaged communities. Since the program’s inception in 2014, the City has successfully applied for and received, approximately $38.5 million in ATP funding.
In the most recent call for projects (ATP Cycle 5), the City was successful in securing approximately $2 million of additional ATP funding ($40.5 million to date) for the ATP Council Agenda Report

CITY OF SANTA BARBARA
COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: February 8, 2022
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Administration Division, Finance Department
SUBJECT: City’s Response To The Santa Barbara County Grand Jury’s Report “Pensions In Santa Barbara County Require Vigilance”
RECOMMENDATION:
That Council receive the Santa Barbara County Grand Jury’s report titled “Pensions in Santa Barbara Require Vigilance” and accept staff’s responses to the findings and recommendations.
DISCUSSION:
On November 30, 2021, the Santa Barbara Grand Jury issued a report titled “Pensions in Santa Barbara County Require Vigilance, Balancing Promises and Maintaining Services.” The Grand Jury requires the City to provide a response to the findings and recommendations in the report no later than 90 days of receipt of the report.
The Grand Jury report can be found in Attachment 1, and staff’s response to the findings and recommendations can be found in Attachment 2.
On December 7, 2021, the Finance Committee received a detailed staff report of the significance of the current and projected pension costs to the City, identified actions already taken by the City to reduce these costs, and future actions and strategies to be considered – the same strategies identified in the Grand Jury report. The Finance Committee provided direction to staff to research options for revising the City’s reserve policies to include a “pension stabilization reserve” and the process for implementing a Section 115 trust, and bring those options to a future Finance Committee meeting for review and consideration early in 2022.
The Grand Jury report requires that the City develop and publish a comprehensive plan by June 30, 2022, addressing pension plans. Staff will provide additional information to the Finance Committee and the City Council in conjunction with the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 budget process.
Agenda Item No. 7
Council Agenda Report
City’s Response To The Santa Barbara County Grand Jury’s Report “Pensions In Santa Barbara County Require Vigilance”
February 8, 2022
BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No direct budget or financial impacts exist from the approval of staff’s responses to the findings and recommendations in the Grand Jury report; however, pension costs are significant and may hinder the City’s ability at continuing to deliver services to the public in the future.
The City’s General Fund has a structural budget deficit where existing revenue sources, and the annual growth in those revenues, is not adequate to pay for the current commitments.
A significant expenditure that is projected to grow at a greater rate compared to revenue growth is pension costs and obligations. More than 25% of the City’s General Fund salary and benefit expenditures are normal costs and unfunded liability payments to CalPERS.
The City can explore and eventually implement pension management strategies to be able to control and reduce costs in the future. Falling short of implementing strategies will likely result in needing to implement additional budget balancing solutions (i.e. raising revenues, reducing expenditures) that will need to be identified in FY2023 and beyond.

In 2017-18, the Santa Barbara County Grand Jury issued an investigative report that looked at the pension plans of Santa Barbara County (County) and the eight incorporated cities within the County.
That report found there were substantial liquidity and solvency risks to the sustainability of many of the public defined benefit pension plans in the County and that if there are additional fiscal shocks, such as a fall in tax revenues or a period of low returns on pension assets held by the California Public Employee Retirement System (CalPERS) and County of Santa Barbara Employee Retirement System (SBCERS), then other actions may be required.
Salaries and benefits, including pension costs, are the largest annual operating expenditures of the County and its eight cities. The unfunded pension liabilities for future payments to current and former staff are also a significant portion of each of their balance sheets, totaling $1.8 billion. Pensions and the related liabilities are a significant part of the operating costs of all local governments. The Jury was told that governments often cannot provide the same level of wages and benefits to attract and retain talented and capable staff as “for profit” organizations because of the need to balance providing required services to its residents against the burden of taxation or fees charged to those residents.
Pensions, the Jury learned, provide a way for local governments to attract capable staff while deferring some of the costs to the taxpayers to the future. Pensions are an attractive benefit for many as they assure staff of income streams after retirement.
The County and cities need to make sure they are prepared to fund future pension obligations when due, without disrupting critical services or over-burdening their residents with extra fees and taxes.
The Jury discovered that, while risks continue to exist, especially for those cities that are suffering financial challenges, there are no immediate threats and that, with proper attention, all cities and the County should be able to deliver the necessary services to its residents and meet its pension obligations as they become due.
INTRODUCTION
The County of Santa Barbara and the eight incorporated cities within the County had unfunded pension liabilities of $1.8 billion as of June 30, 2020. These obligations are the calculated net present value of payments due over an extended period of years and like most U.S. cities represent the largest liability on the County’s and the eight cities’ General Fund Balance Sheets. Financial markets are not always predictable. For example, in early 2020, the United States was experiencing a record-breaking economy and stock markets were at all-time highs until the COVID-19 pandemic struck, and the financial markets contracted and drastically decreased in value. That decline was short-lived but underscores the reality that volatility in the markets can occur without warning and that the County and the eight cities need to be prepared for future significant negative impacts to the markets.
The 2017-18 Santa Barbara County Jury issued a report about the nine principal public pension systems in Santa Barbara County (County.) Those pension systems include the County of Santa Barbara Employee Retirement System, and those managed by the California Public Employee Retirement

System for the eight cities of Buellton, Carpinteria, Goleta, Guadalupe, Lompoc, Santa Maria, the City of Santa Barbara and Solvang. The 2017-18 Jury found the highest risks in the plans of Lompoc, the City of Santa Barbara, and Santa Maria, which are the largest in the County. It found moderate risks in Guadalupe and Solvang. It found minimal to moderate risks in Buellton, Carpinteria and Goleta. Risks in SBCERS were moderate and well managed.
California is one of the most expensive states to live in, and Santa Barbara County is one the most expensive counties. Across the board, the cost of living in cities in the County is significantly higher than the national average.1
The County and its cities must compete for qualified employees. To attract an appropriate workforce, the County and its cities cannot always pay salaries comparable to other employment opportunities candidates may be considering. As a result, they have followed a practice that most governmental organizations use to augment current compensation - a Defined Benefit Pension Plan. In a Defined Benefit Pension Plan the employer promises a specified pension payment upon retirement that is predetermined by a formula based on the employee's earnings history, tenure of service, and age.
Counties and cities have the option to administer their pension plans, but the costs and risks associated with doing so make using an outside administrator more attractive. In California, most counties and cities that have decided not to administer their own pension plans use CalPERS.2 The eight cities of Santa Barbara County are members of CalPERS. In addition to the eight cities, close to 2,900 California public employers participate in CalPERS.3 As of June 30, 2020, CalPERS managed
$392.5 billion in assets,4
making it the largest public pension fund in the nation.3 These assets are used to help cover the cost of future payments due current and former employers for services previously rendered. As of June 30, 2020, the assets under management represented 70.6 percent of the Accrued Liability due members of the pension fund.5
Accrued Liability is net present value of the total dollars needed as of the valuation date to fund all benefits earned in the past.
In addition to using investment returns, CalPERS uses contributions from employers and members to fund payments of member benefits. Per CalPERS, as of June 30, 2020, funding for retirement benefits was broken down as follows: investment returns (55 percent), employer contributions (32 percent) and employee contributions (13 percent).6
Each year, employers within the CalPERS pension fund are required to make contributions to the fund.
These contributions are made up of two components, the Employer Normal Cost and a payment that represents amortization of the Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL.) The Employer Normal Cost represents the pension amount earned by active employees for services expected to be provided for the upcoming fiscal year and is paid at 100 percent. The UAL is total Actuarial Accrued Liabilities minus assets available to pay benefits earned. Rather than requiring employers to pay the entire amount of the UAL, the annual payment is an amortized amount needed to fund the liability over an extended period for past service credit earned by members. In addition to these required payments, employers also have the option to make additional payments to pay down the UAL early.

2021 Santa Barbara County Grand Jury 3
CalPERS had net investment returns of 8.5 percent for the ten-year period ending June 30, 2020.
Managed assets grew from $237 billion to $392.5 billion. During that period, the annual net investment returns ranged from a low of .01 percent to a high of 21.7 percent.
Discount Rate is the rate of return used to discount future cash flows back to their present value. Prior to 2008, CalPERS was using a Discount Rate of 7.75 percent. Using too high a Discount Rate can understate the amount currently due for future payments. This can occur if the actual return on invested assets is less than the Discount Rate used and did occur in 2008 and 2009. Using the 7.75 percent Discount Rate, managed assets were shown to exceed the Actuarial Liability as of June 30, 2007. In 2008, the Great Recession began and, while the Actuarial Liability continued to grow, managed assets lost significant value. Just two years later, as of June 30, 2009, managed assets were only 61 percent of the Actuarial Liability.
In 2012, the State of California passed AB 340 and AB 197, which enacted the California Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA) and were intended to help blunt the rise of pension debt counties and cities were facing due to the recession. PEPRA went into effect on January 1, 2013, and made several significant positive changes in California pension systems. Employees hired prior to PEPRA are members of plans which are referred to as Classic plans. Those employees retain the benefits promised under their existing plans. For employees hired after PEPRA went into effect, the plans typically set a new maximum benefit, increased the retirement age at which members became eligible, set a cap on the amount used to calculate an employee’s benefit base, and forbade the practice of “Employer Paid Member Contributions” for new PEPRA members. Since its enactment, the PEPRA law has succeeded in reducing future liabilities in pension plans.
Actuarial valuations reports are prepared for all members of the CalPERS pension fund each year.
These actuarial reports, which are typically released 14 months after the end of the reporting period, are based on several assumptions, including expected investment return and payroll growth, eligibility for the types of benefits provided, and mortality rates of retirees. Based upon actuarial valuation, the annual employer contribution rates are adjusted, as needed. Since 2016 these valuations are based on an investment return assumption of 7.0 percent. For 2021, and subsequent periods, the Discount Rate used to calculate employer contributions will be dropped to 6.8 percent,6 which will have the effect of
raising the estimated future liabilities under the pension fund.
Unlike the eight cities, the County of Santa Barbara and its employees are not members of CalPERS.
Instead, the County administers its own retirement funds through SBCERS, which was established on January 1, 1944. It provides service retirement, disability, death, and survivor benefits for employees of the County of Santa Barbara, the Santa Barbara County Superior Court, and ten special districts.7
As of June 30, 2020, SBCERS managed nearly $3.2 billion in assets. This amount represents approximately 74 percent of the Accrued Liability due current and former employees who are members of SBCERS, which covers 10,777 current and former employees, including 4,322 who are currently receiving benefits.8
Like CalPERS, SBCERS funds payments of member benefits through a combination of member and employer contributions and investment income.
The Board of SBCERS sets the assumptions to be used to determine the funding requirements of the pension fund each year. One key assumption is the Discount Rate. To be more in line with actual results, the SBCERS Board has lowered the Discount Rate used to determine the Actuarial Accrued Liability several times. In 2007 it was lowered to 7.75 percent, and after several interim adjustments, it

2021 Santa Barbara County Grand Jury 4
now sits at 7 percent.9 Like plans within the CalPERS pension fund, the SBCERS pension fund is subject to PEPRA.
Unfunded pension liabilities, as calculated by CalPERS and SBCERS, are paid by the employer over an extended period, much like a mortgage would be. The amount of Unfunded Accrued Actuarial Liability to be paid in future periods is listed as a liability on each of the cities’ and the County’s financial statements. That liability is shown at the estimated net present value of the expected future payments, based upon an assumed rate of return on investment assets managed by CalPERS or SBCERS. Like all estimates, the amounts shown are only as good as the assumptions used to calculate them. One important assumption is the Discount Rate used to calculate the liability. If future CalPERS or SBCERS investment earnings consistently fall short of the Discount Rate used to calculate the UAL, the amount owed by the cities or County could be significantly higher. If CalPERS or SBCERS actual investment returns are higher than the Discount Rate used to calculate the UAL, as they have been for most years the past decade, the amounts to be funded by the cities or County would be less.
While CalPERS and SBCERS have, to date, adequately managed the assets under management for the cities and the County, there are no guarantees that investment returns will be sufficient to cover all obligations, or that other factors might occur that would negatively impact the cities or the County and their ability to meet all obligations on a timely basis. There are mechanisms available to protect the cities and the County from significant increases in future amounts to be paid, or from reductions in revenues, which could impair the ability of the cities or the County to make the future payments timely, without cutting services provided to residents. These mechanisms include:
Section 115 Pension Trusts - A Section 115 Pension Trust, which derives its name from the code section within the United States Internal Revenue Code, may be used to segregate funds from an entity’s general fund for the purpose of funding future obligations, and recently has been used more frequently to set aside funds to meet future pension contributions or liabilities that would otherwise create strains on current operational budgets. Monies in a Section 115 Trust can be invested and can potentially earn a higher rate of return than the growth of future pension obligations. One limitation on Section 115 funds is that they are irrevocably committed for the purpose stated in the trust and may not be retrieved or used for other purposes.
Pension Obligation Bonds – A Pension Obligation Bond (POB) is a bond issued by a city or county that is repaid from future returns on the investments made using the proceeds of the bond, or from future revenues of the issuing entity. The basic principle of POBs relies on the expectation that the rate to borrow the money is less than the assumed expected return from an investment portfolio. The expected benefits to the entity are that the annual costs of funding the pension liability are offset in some part by the net proceeds of the investments. This takes pressure off the entity to completely fund the pension obligations from annual revenues. A risk does exist in that the investments created with the borrowed funds may not perform well and the revenues are not sufficient to cover the bond costs. In that case the entity would be required to use funds from other sources, which could impact the level of services provided by the entity. It is imperative that the entity get the lowest possible interest rate to mitigate risk, and with interest rates at record lows, many entities are looking to POBs to protect them from future fluctuations in pension costs.
Pension Reserve Fund - One other option used by some entities is to create a Pension Reserve Fund within their budget that is funded in years when excess monies are available. This concept has the benefit in that should there arise a need to use the funds for other purposes, they could be redirected to the alternative use.

METHODOLOGY
To carry out its analysis, the Jury:
x Reviewed the 2019 and 2020 CalPERS valuation reports for the 32 plans10 within the eight cities, plus related data in the public domain and as provided by the cities’ plan administrators11; x Reviewed 2020 SBCERS Annual Reports and data provided by SBCERS10; x Reviewed “The California State Auditor’s Fiscal Health Analysis of the State’s Over 470 Cities,”12 which showed California cities that could be facing fiscal challenges by assessing their levels of risk using various financial indicators; x Reviewed audited financial reports of the County and of the eight cities for various years plus related data in the public domain and as provided by the County and the eight cities; and x Interviewed individuals with administrative responsibilities for the pension plans from the County and the eight cities and representatives from SBCERS and CalPERS.
Based on the information in the documents reviewed and from the interviews with various officials of the eight cities, the County, SBCERS and CalPERS, the Jury constructed a model to assist it in analyzing the current financial position of each of the 32 plans. The Jury also reviewed the relationship of the pension liabilities to their respective General Funds and annual operating revenues, the current and future burden to the residents of the County and the eight cities, and the years the unfunded liabilities are expected to be paid off.
OBSERVATIONS
In Santa Barbara County, PEPRA has been effective in that pension plans created as a result of the pension reform are funded at a much higher percentage. While PEPRA has helped, that does not mean there are not some significant issues to be aware of. The largest component of the Unfunded Accrued Liability in the 32 pension plans of the cities within the county are in Classic plans. Even though PEPRA plans began in 2013, as of June 30, 2020, the total UAL for the 32 plans was over $631 million, of which only $1 million was within PEPRA plans. So, while the 12 PEPRA plans are funded at an average of over 90 percent, the 20 Classic plans are only funded to an average of 68.7 percent. In future years PEPRA plans will play an increasing part in controlling pension costs of the cities and the County.
Table 1 (below) highlights the overall pension liabilities for each city and the County, as well their respective populations, estimated annual employer pension contributions, and analytics of how each city’s and the County’s obligations compare to various metrics. These analyses helped the jury classify the pension solvency risk for each of the cities and the County. For example, Lompoc, the City of Santa Barbara, Santa Maria and the County have higher per capita UALs than the remaining cities, suggesting there could be a higher strain on those communities than on those with lesser per capita UALs. Also, the cities of Lompoc, Santa Barbara and Santa Maria have significantly higher Estimated Total Employer Contributions than the other cities. These factors alone may not be a warning sign, but when compared to their Projected Payrolls and to their Total General Fund Revenues, they also represent higher percentages of those amounts and suggest higher risk.

Table 113
Public Pension Status, Santa Barbara County and 8 Cities, 2020 Based on the Jury’s investigation, interviews, and reviews of each plan’s actuarial valuation report and the most recent audited financials for each city and the County, the Jury classified the cities’ and the County’s pension solvency risk into two categories: those that the Jury believes are at less risk to have problems with meeting their pension obligations and those that continue to have higher potential risk.
Cities and the County the Jury considers at less potential pension plan solvency risk include:
x Buellton
x Carpinteria
x Goleta
x Guadalupe
x Solvang
x County of Santa Barbara
Cities the Jury considers at higher potential pension plan solvency risk include:
x Lompoc
x Santa Barbara
x Santa Maria
The Jury does not think that any of the cities or the County are in imminent danger of insolvency related to their pension obligations. That said, the cities and the County can always take additional steps to further reduce the risk that pension obligations would impair their ability to provide all intended services on a timely basis.

And some cities are taking those additional steps. While no city, or the County, has used a Pension Obligation Bond, the cities of Guadalupe, Lompoc and Santa Barbara have indicated that they have either investigated the idea or are planning to. A Pension Obligation Bond is not without risk, so it is important that each city that considers using this tool takes a careful look at its cost of borrowing, the interest rate they can obtain, and the market outlook for debt over the life of the bond.
Several cities have either created Section 115 Trusts (Goleta), or have told the Jury they are investigating the possibility (Guadalupe, Santa Barbara, Santa Maria and Solvang). A Section 115 Trust would allow the cities to set aside funds when times are good to be used to offset pension costs when the need to use general funds would negatively impact the timely delivery of essential services. The downside to using a Section 115 Trust is that the funds may only be used for the specific purpose for which the trust was created.
A less restrictive way than a Section 115 Trust for cities to set aside funds for pension needs in the future would be to create a Pension Reserve Fund. This type of reserve fund allows the cities to set aside funds for specific later needs, but allows the flexibility to divert the funds to other uses, should the need arise. None of the cities are currently using this mechanism, and instead are relying on their general reserve funds to be available if needed. The reserve funds for the cities of Guadalupe and Lompoc are currently underfunded based upon their stated policies, but both feel recent events will help them replenish their reserves within a couple of years at the most. The Jury learned that in Guadalupe there has been significant new housing built within the city and more is under construction, and in Lompoc, the recent approval of Measure Q, which increases the tax on cannabis manufacturing and distribution, is expected to create between and $5 and $8 million dollars in new revenues for the next fiscal year.
The Jury learned that all the cities and the County take their pension obligations seriously and understand the need to fulfill those obligations without impacting the delivery of essential and promised services to their residents. The Jury also learned that while these issues are analyzed and discussed annually, none of the cities or the County have a written plan addressing the risks of pension plan insolvency. A written plan would allow the residents to better understand how the cities and the County are addressing these issues and would serve as a guide to those implementing new policies.
CONCLUSION
The 2021 Santa Barbara County Grand Jury determined that while no current problems or undue risks exist and that none of the cities or the County are in imminent danger of being unable to meet their pension obligations, there still exists a need to remain vigilant and to prepare for unforeseen changes that could affect their future ability to fund their pension obligations in a timely manner.
FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Finding 1a
The cities of Buellton, Carpinteria, Goleta, Guadalupe, Solvang and the County of Santa Barbara are at less potential pension plan solvency risk.
Finding 1b
The cities of Lompoc, Santa Barbara and Santa Maria are at higher potential pension plan solvency risk.
2021 Santa Barbara County Grand Jury 8
Finding 1c
Unfunded Accrued Liabilities have risen for all cities since 2016, and with the announced change in the Discount Rate, are expected to rise further, which could impact the cities’ ability to deliver expected services to residents.
Recommendation 1
That each city council and the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors develop and publish a comprehensive plan by June 30, 2022, addressing their pension plans and how they intend to properly assure future obligations are paid when due, without impacting the timely delivery of essential and promised services to residents.
Finding 2
Section 115 Trusts, Pension Obligation Bonds, and Pension Reserve Funds can be effective mechanisms to protect cities from dramatic impacts to the financial markets or declines in General Fund revenues.
Recommendation 2
That each city council and the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors study and determine by June 30, 2022, whether a Section 115 Trust, Pension Obligation Bond, or Pension Reserve Fund would be an effective hedge against risks to their pension plans for their city.

APPENDIX A
GLOSSARY
Accrued Liability (also called Actuarial Accrued Liability or Entry Age Normal Accrued Liability) The total dollars needed as of the valuation date to fund all benefits earned in the past for current members.
Actuarial Valuation The determination, as of a valuation date, of the Normal Cost, Accrued Liability, and related actuarial present values for a pension plan. These valuations are performed annually or when an employer is contemplating a change to their plan provisions.
Classic Member (under PEPRA) A classic member is a member who joined CalPERS or SBCERS prior to January 1, 2013, and who is not defined as a new member under PEPRA. (See definition of New Member below).
Discount Rate Assumption The actuarial assumption that was called “investment return” in earlier CalPERS reports or “actuarial interest rate” in section 20014 of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL) (California Government Code section 20014).
Funded Status A measure of how well-funded, or how "on track," a plan or risk pool is with respect to assets versus accrued liabilities. A ratio greater than 100 percent means the plan or risk pool has more assets than liabilities and a ratio less than 100 percent means liabilities are greater than assets.
New Member (under PEPRA) A new member includes an individual who becomes a member of a public retirement system for the first time on or after January 1, 2013, and who was not a member of another public retirement system prior to that date, and who is not subject to reciprocity with another public retirement system.
Normal Cost The annual cost of service accrual for the upcoming fiscal year for active employees. The normal cost should be viewed as the long-term contribution rate.
PEPRA The California Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act of 2013.
Present Value of Benefits (PVB) The total dollars needed as of the valuation date to fund all benefits earned in the past or expected to be earned in the future for current members.
Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL) When a plan’s or pension fund’s value of assets is less than its accrued liability, the difference is the plan’s or pension fund’s UAL (or unfunded liability). If the unfunded liability is positive, the plan or pension fund will have to pay contributions exceeding the Normal Cost.
OTHER TERMS
Benefit Factor. The percentage of pay to which employee members are entitled for each year of service.

Santa Barbara County Grand Jury
Presiding Judge Gustavo Lavayen
312 East Cook Street
Santa Maria, CA 93454
RE: City of Santa Barbara’s Response to the Findings and Recommendations in the Santa Barbara County Grand Jury Report on “Pensions in Santa Barbara County Require Vigilance”
To Presiding Judge Gustavo Lavayen,
In response to the Santa Barbara County Grand Jury Report, the City of Santa Barbara offers the following responses to the findings and recommendations in the report:
Finding 1b: The cities of Lompoc, Santa Barbara and Santa Maria are at higher potential pension plan solvency risk.
City of Santa Barbara Response to Finding 1b: Agree
Because of the larger size of the City’s annual operating budget compared to many other cities in Santa Barbara County, the total normal accrued and unfunded actuarial liabilities are higher compared to other cities. The percent of the City’s pension obligations that are funded, however, are in line with most other cities in Santa Barbara County and many other cities throughout California.
Risks to pension plans are evident for all members of CalPERS. The City has prioritized and will continue to make all legally required payments to CalPERS throughout the year, and has budgeted for these expenditures accordingly.
Finding 1c: Unfunded Accrued Liabilities have risen for all cities since 2016, and with the announced change in the Discount Rate, are expected to rise further, which could impact the cities’ ability to deliver expected services to residents.
City of Santa Barbara’s Response to Finding 1c: Agree
ATTACHMENT 2
Although the reduced discount rate will have an impact by increasing the amount of future payments to CalPERS, the recently announced annual CalPERS rate of return at 21.3% will have a positive impact on future liability payments. Many other factors, including salary changes and increases, actuarial assumptions, and future investment returns will surely impact the annual payments the City is required to make.
As in prior fiscal years, the City’s adopted budget will continue to ensure all required payments are adequately appropriated. The City will balance its operating and capital budget by considering potential service level impacts, exploring revenue generating solutions and other budget balancing options.
Recommendation 1: That each City Council and the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors develop and publish a comprehensive plan by June 30, 2022, addressing their pension plans and how they intend to properly assure future obligations are paid when due, without impacting the timely delivery of essential and promised services to residents.
City of Santa Barbara’s Response to Recommendation 1: Will be implemented
On December 7, 2021, the Finance Committee of the City Council received a detailed staff report of the significance of the current and projected pension costs to the City, identify actions already taken by the City to reduce these costs and future actions and strategies to be considered – the same strategies identified in the Grand Jury report. The City is actively working to address current and future pension plan costs and liabilities and is already working to develop a comprehensive plan.
During the beginning of calendar year 2022, staff will continue to work with the City Council on analyzing and considering various pension management strategies, and will include a plan as a core component of the FY2023 budget that will be adopted in June of 2022.
Finding 2: Section 115 Trusts, Pension Obligation Bonds, and Pension Reserve Funds can be effective mechanisms to protect cities from dramatic impacts to the financial markets or declines in General fund revenues.
City of Santa Barbara’s Response to Finding 2: Agree
As directed by the Finance Committee of the City Council, staff is actively working to develop a pension stabilization reserve policy and recommend revisions to the City’s General Fund and other reserve policies as a first step.
Staff is also exploring and plans to implement a Section 115 trust in the coming months.
Recommendation 2: That each City Council and the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors study and determine by June 30, 2022, whether a Section 115 Trust, Pension Obligation Bond, or Pension Reserve Fund would be an effective hedge against risks to their pension plans for their city.
City of Santa Barbara’s Response to Recommendation 2: Will be implemented
As part of the FY2023 budget process, the City Council will consider whether a Section 115 Trust, Pension Obligation Bond or Pension Reserve Fund would be effective.
Sincerely,
Keith DeMartini
Finance Director
City of Santa Barbara

TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Engineering Division, Public Works Department
Transportation Planning and Parking Division, Public Works Department
SUBJECT: Contract For Construction Of Downtown De La Vina Street Safe Crosswalks And Buffered Bike Lanes And Eastside Community Paseos Project
RECOMMENDATION: That Council:
A. Award a contract with Lash Construction Inc., for their low bid amount of $1,508,278 and bid alternates amount of $869,005, for a total of $2,377,283 for construction of the Downtown De La Vina Street Safe Crosswalks And Buffered Bike Lanes And Eastside Community Paseos Project, Bid No. 3906; and authorize the Public Works Director to execute the contract and approve expenditures up to $713,185 to cover any cost increases that may result from contract change orders for extra work and differences between estimated bid quantities and actual quantities measured for payment; and
B. Approve an increase in revenue and expenditure appropriations in the Streets Grant Capital Fund in the amount of $1,320,000, funded by Active Transportation Program grant funding, for the construction of the Downtown De La Vina Street Safe Crosswalks and Buffered Bike Lanes Project.
DISCUSSION:
The Downtown De La Vina Street Safe Crosswalks and Buffered Bike Lanes Project and the Eastside Community Paseos Project were planned, awarded, and designed as two separate Active Transportation Program (ATP) grant-funded projects. The Public Works Department agreed to combine the projects, increasing City staff efficiency and realizing economies of scale in construction resulting in one Downtown De La Vina Street Safe Crosswalks and Buffered Bike Lanes and Eastside Community Paseos Project (Project).
Downtown De La Vina Street Safe Crosswalks and Buffered Bike Lanes Project To address collision patterns along De La Vina Street, a buffered bike lane will replace one vehicular travel lane, between Carrillo Street and Haley Street. The lane reduction Agenda Item No. 9

was approved by the City Council as part of the 2016 Bicycle Master Plan and will eliminate the double-threat condition for pedestrians when one driver stops for a pedestrian, and the driver in the next lane does not. In addition, curb extensions, high visibility signs, and pavement markings will be constructed along six intersections to improve sightlines and decrease pedestrian exposure to traffic by reducing crossing distance and vehicle turning speed (see Attachment 1 for locations). The buffered bike lane on De La Vina Street will be installed on the left side of the roadway since the majority of the cyclists turn left from De La Vina Street to go Downtown. The buffered bike lane will reduce broadside and sideswipe vehicle versus cyclist collisions. Four parking spaces will be removed on Haley Street from De La Vina Street to Chapala Street to accommodate a protected bike lane that will connect to an existing bike route from Downtown to the Eastside and Lower Eastside neighborhoods. A separate recently constructed project added corridor lighting along both De La Vina Street and Haley Street, providing improved safety at night. These improvements address significant patterns of pedestrian and cyclist-involved collisions that are prevalent in the project area.
Eastside Community Paseos Project
The Eastside Community Paseos Project provides critical bike and pedestrian connections within and from the Eastside to the Downtown area. This bike-friendly route along Alisos Street, will serve as a safe alternative route to the vehicular-dominated Milpas Street for families biking and walking to nearby schools. This bicycle route was approved by City Council as part of the 2016 Bicycle Master Plan. All stop signs in the corridor will be adjusted to stop streets along Alisos Street, allowing cyclists to travel Alisos Street from top to bottom without stopping. Cyclists will share the roadway with vehicles along Alisos Street, therefore the volume of vehicles on that street needs to be reduced. Traffic diverters and landscape peninsulas will be installed to encourage a reduction in vehicular volumes and speed. Students and residents will be able to safely walk and bike from the Eastside Neighborhood via improved bicycle and pedestrian corridors connecting to the Santa Barbara Junior High and into Downtown. Some of the on-street parking spaces will be shifted into the parkway along the north side of the 900 block of East Cota Street in order to accommodate the bike lane.
Existing bike routes taking Eastside residents to and from Downtown along Cota Street and Haley Street will have new, conflict green striping at the intersections. This striping will safely position cyclists at intersections and will provide a visual queue to drivers to anticipate cyclists approaching and crossing at intersections. There will be a new bike lane installed on Ortega Street, from Chapala Street to Ortega Park and Santa Barbara Junior High.
Pedestrian improvements include a new sidewalk along the west side of Alisos Street in areas currently missing sidewalk. Rectangular rapid flashing beacons will be installed at the intersections of Cota Street with Quarantina and Nopal Streets, which are adjacent to Santa Barbara Junior High.

Community Outreach
These improvements emerged from community input in the 2013 Eastside Neighborhood Transportation Management Plan and the 2016 Bicycle Master Plan. The design was presented at two community workshops in October 2019, and December 2020.
Community outreach will continue before and during construction. Signs were posted along various intersections or midblock crosswalks along portions of Alisos and Cota Streets the week of January 24, 2022, to inform residents what to expect.

SUBJECT: Introduction Of An Ordinance Amending Municipal Code To Regulate Sidewalk Vending
RECOMMENDATION:
That Council, introduce and subsequently adopt, by reading of title only, an Ordinance of the Council of the City of Santa Barbara Amending Title 9 of the Santa Barbara Municipal Code by the Addition of Chapter 9.49 to Regulate Sidewalk Vending in Accordance with State Law.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Santa Barbara Municipal Code (SBMC) § 9.48.010 generally prohibits all commercial use of City streets, sidewalks, pathways, and other public areas, subject to certain exceptions.
In January 2019, Government Code Sections 51036–51039 went into effect disallowing cities from prohibiting vendors from operating on public sidewalks or parks except in accordance with certain objective performance standards. The purpose of the proposed ordinance is to provide a clear pathway for microenterprise businesses, entrepreneurs, and individuals to lawfully and safely conduct sidewalk vending with performance criteria and regulations that protect the public health, neighborhoods, and business districts, and is consistent with state statute.
DISCUSSION:
Background
On August 3, 2021, staff presented a proposed sidewalk vending ordinance to the City Council Ordinance Committee (Ordinance Committee) for review and comment (Attachment 1). The Ordinance Committee members had a range of questions and Agenda Item No. 10
City Council Agenda Report
Introduction Of An Ordinance Amending Municipal Code To Regulate Sidewalk Vending February 8, 2022
comments for staff regarding how the proposed ordinance would regulate sidewalk vending. The Committee expressed a desire to accommodate sidewalk vendors during Old Spanish Days and directed staff to seek additional community input.
On December 7, 2021, staff returned to the Ordinance Committee with an updated ordinance to reflect the committee’s feedback from the public as highlighted in the staff report (Attachment 2). The feedback focused on protecting public access and an accessible path of travel on sidewalks, crosswalks, and other high volume pedestrian areas such as Stearns Wharf, portions of the waterfront, and Downtown State Street sidewalks as well as implementing a low cost and a clear process for obtaining a permit.
Additionally, a provision was added to the ordinance based on feedback from the Ordinance Committee allowing for sidewalk vending of cascarónes and other non-food items on State Street and on the sidewalk adjacent to the curb downtown during the week of the Old Spanish Days Fiesta.
Lastly, the Council-adopted Economic Development Plan includes an objective to address opportunities for the creation and operation of microenterprise businesses. The recommended adoption of the proposed sidewalk vending ordinance would address this economic development objective.
The following sections provide an overview of the California Senate Bill 946 permits sidewalk vending and a summary of the proposed sidewalk vending ordinance.
State Law — Senate Bill 946
Currently, the City regulates street vendors under SBMC §9.48.010 (a general prohibition), § 15.16.010 (a general prohibition against vending in parks), and Chapter
5.32 (a tax permit requirement for door-to-door vendors). There are certain exceptions to this prohibition either created by ordinance (such as the exceptions contained within SBMC § 9.48.010 itself, the outdoor dining permit program established under SBMC Chapter 9.95, and the temporary authorization under the Emergency Economic Recovery Ordinance) or by operation of case law (such as the current limitation on the City’s ability to prohibit vending from legally parked vehicles that the staff intends to remedy by an ordinance that will be brought forward in the near future).
On September 17, 2018, Senate Bill 946 was signed into law, which limits the oversight that cities (charter cities included) have on sidewalk vendors and establishes statewide governance of vending in public parks and rights-of-way. Cities may adopt certain regulations so long as they are directly related to objective health, safety, and welfare concerns. The law went into effect on January 1, 2019, and is codified under Government Code Sections 51036–51039.
The stated intent of the legislation is to create entrepreneurial and economic development opportunities for immigrant and low-income communities. The Legislature found that sidewalk vending increases access to desired goods, such as culturally significant food City Council Agenda Report
Introduction Of An Ordinance Amending Municipal Code To Regulate Sidewalk Vending February 8, 2022
and merchandise; contributes to a safe and dynamic public space; and promotes public safety and welfare by encouraging local authorities to support and properly regulate sidewalk vending and decriminalize sidewalk vending.
State law also permits sidewalk vending in public parks unless there is a concession agreement that exclusively permits the sale of food or merchandise by the concessionaire. State law also allows park authorities to limit sidewalk vending in parks to ensure the public’s use and enjoyment of natural resources and recreational opportunities or to prevent an undue concentration of commercial activity that unreasonably interferes with the scenic and natural character of the park.
Lastly, State law makes any violation of the proposed ordinance punishable only by an administrative fine and requires a local authority to take into consideration the individual’s ability to pay the fine, reducing the fine if the assessment warrants reduction.
Although the passage of Senate Bill 946 restricted some aspects of the City’s regulatory oversight, the City is still able to adopt time, place, and manner restrictions on vending on public property that respond to objective health, safety, or welfare concerns. The proposed ordinance was written to be consistent with state law.
Proposed Ordinance
Sidewalk vendors include individuals who sell food or merchandise from a pushcart, stand, display, pedal-driven cart, wagon, showcase, rack, or other non-motorized conveyance, or from one’s person, upon a public sidewalk or other pedestrian paths. In addition, sidewalk vendors may be one of two types: roaming or stationary. A roaming sidewalk vendor moves from place to place and stops only to complete a transaction, whereas a stationary sidewalk vendor vends from a fixed location. The proposed ordinance regulates both stationary and roaming sidewalk vendors. Sidewalk vendors do not include an owner, employee, agent, or independent contractor of a business having an established storefront or other fixed business location within the City.
The proposed ordinance establishes business license, health permit, operational and location requirements, as well as special requirements for parks and the State Street Promenade area. Specific requirements are detailed in the proposed ordinance attached to this report; a summary of the requirements is provided below:
City Approvals:
Sidewalk vendors must pay the applicable business tax under SBMC Chapter 5.04 and display a business tax receipt; however, no additional City permit or license is required.
In issuing a business tax receipt, the Finance Department will accept a California driver's license or identification number, or an individual taxpayer number in lieu of a social security number.
City Council Agenda Report
Introduction Of An Ordinance Amending Municipal Code To Regulate Sidewalk Vending February 8, 2022
Sidewalk vendors who vend food must obtain and display a County Health Department Permit.
Prohibited Items:
Alcoholic Beverages, tobacco products and electronic smoking devices, cannabis and cannabis products, weapons, pharmaceuticals, and other merchandise prohibited by law.
Location Regulations Include:
Roaming sidewalk vendors are permitted in residential zones between the hours of 8 a.m. and one-half hour after sunset and must move continuously except when stopped to complete a sale and must not reduce the path of travel on a sidewalk to less than 5 feet. Stationary sidewalk vendors are prohibited in all residential zones.

Sidewalk vending is prohibited within 200 feet of the entrance to any library, city hall, police station, government administration building, a fire station, or a hospital. Sidewalk vending is prohibited within 18 inches from the edge of the curb, the roadway of any street or highway, off-street bicycle or multi-use path, bridge or in a location or manner where placement or operation endangers the safety of persons or creates a dangerous condition of property.
Sidewalk vending is prohibited within 500 feet of a City-permitted special event. Sidewalk vending is prohibited within 5 feet of a marked or unmarked crosswalk, fire hydrant, and the area directly in front of a transparent window. Sidewalk vending is prohibited within 10 feet of marked bus zone, bench, or transit shelter, driveway, or an entry or exit of a business during operating hours. Vending is prohibited within 100 feet of playgrounds, recreational fields, skate parks, ball courts, and an outdoor dining or patio dining area. Sidewalk vending is prohibited in any City park or beach where the City has entered into an exclusive concessionaire’s agreement for the sale of food or merchandise. Sidewalk vending is prohibited during times the park or beach is closed and in park, waterfront, and beach parking lots.
Sidewalk vending is prohibited from the Cabrillo Boulevard intersection to the end of Stearns Wharf to address path of travel and pedestrian and vehicular conflicts. Stationary sidewalk vending is prohibited on the north side of Cabrillo Boulevard or within 4 feet of an entry or exit of a business fronting on a public street. Stationary sidewalk vending is permitted on the south side of Cabrillo Boulevard as long as the vending cart is located furthest from the street and a clear pedestrian path of travel of at least 8 feet is maintained along the sidewalk. All sidewalk vending activities in parks shall be conducted from a sidewalk or pedestrian pathway within the park in an area designated for sidewalk vending by the Parks and Recreation Director.
City Council Agenda Report
Introduction Of An Ordinance Amending Municipal Code To Regulate Sidewalk Vending February 8, 2022
Vending carts may not be placed or operated in a manner that impedes the flow of pedestrian traffic, including persons with disabilities using a mobility device, by reducing the path of travel on a sidewalk or pedestrian pathway to less than 5 feet.
Operational Requirements Include:
Vendors must keep all waste generated by the preparation or service of food products or other products within cart, and stationary vendors must maintain a clean and trash-free vending location including a 10-foot radius. Vending carts or vending displays cannot exceed a length of 74 inches, a width of 34 inches, or a height of 80 inches.
Attached umbrellas on vending carts cannot exceed 48 inches in diameter and can be no shorter than 80 inches.
Stationary sidewalk vendors and roaming sidewalk vendors cannot operate in commercial zones between the hours of midnight and 6:00 a.m. Vending carts may not be stored in any zone on the sidewalk or other City property overnight and must be removed from the sidewalk after the hours of operation. Vending carts cannot be left unattended.
Vending carts cannot be locked, chained, or otherwise secured to any pole, sign, tree, or other object in the public right-of-way.

State law also permits sidewalk vending in public parks unless there is a concession agreement that exclusively permits the sale of food or merchandise by the concessionaire. State law also allows park authorities to limit sidewalk vending in parks to ensure the public’s use and enjoyment of natural resources and recreational opportunities or to prevent an undue concentration of commercial activity that unreasonably interferes with the scenic and natural character of the park.
Lastly, State law makes any violation of the proposed ordinance punishable only by an administrative fine and also requires a local authority to take into consideration the individual’s ability-to-pay the fine, reducing the fine if the assessment warrants reduction.
While the passage of SB 946 restricted some aspects of the City’s regulatory oversight, the City is still able to adopt time, place, and manner restrictions on vending on public property that are in response to objective health, safety, or welfare concerns. The proposed ordinance has been prepared to be consistent with state law.
Proposed Ordinance
Sidewalk vendors include individuals who sell food or merchandise from a pushcart, stand, display, pedal-driven cart, wagon, showcase, rack, or other non-motorized conveyance, or from one’s person, upon a public sidewalk or other pedestrian paths. In addition, sidewalk vendors may be one of two types: roaming or stationary. A roaming sidewalk vendor is a sidewalk vendor who moves from place to place and stops only to complete a transaction while a stationary sidewalk vendor is a sidewalk vendor who vends from a fixed location. Sidewalk vendors do not include an owner, employee, agent, or independent contractor of a business having an established storefront or other fixed business location within the City. The proposed ordinance regulates both stationary and roaming sidewalk vendors.
The proposed ordinance establishes business license, health permit, operational, and location requirements, as well as special requirements for parks and the State Street Ordinance Committee Agenda Report

ORDINANCE COMMITTEE AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: December 7, 2021
TO: Ordinance Committee
FROM: Community Development Department
SUBJECT: Sidewalk Vending Ordinance
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Ordinance Committee consider a proposed Ordinance of the Council of the City of Santa Barbara Amending Title 9 of the Santa Barbara Municipal Code by the Addition of Chapter 9.49 to Regulate Sidewalk Vending in Accordance with State Law.
DISCUSSION:
On August 3, 2021, staff presented a proposed sidewalk vending ordinance to the City Council Ordinance Committee (Ordinance Committee) for review and comment (Attachment 1). The Ordinance Committee members had a range of questions and comments for staff regarding how the proposed ordinance would regulate sidewalk vending. The Committee expressed concern about accommodating sidewalk vendors during Old Spanish Days and directed staff to seek additional community input.
Based on the Ordinance Committee’s comments and feedback, the proposed sidewalk vending ordinance was updated (Attachment 2) to reflect the committee’s feedback and input from several business organizations. Overall, the feedback was focused on protecting public access and path of travel on sidewalks, crosswalks, and other high volume pedestrian areas such as Stearns Wharf, portions of the waterfront, and Downtown State Street sidewalks. Also, a provision has been added allowing for sidewalk vending of cascarónes and other non-food items on State Street and on the sidewalk adjacent to the curb in downtown during the week of the Old Spanish Days Fiesta.
In addition, public messaging on the updated proposed ordinance and the Ordinance Committee’s December 7, 2021, meeting was conducted via social media and the City’s website. Outreach to sidewalk vendors was conducted by staff from various departments who distributed summary fact sheets, both in English and Spanish, of the proposed ordinance and a notice of the Ordinance Committee meeting.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: February 8, 2022
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Planning Division, Community Development Department SUBJECT: Initiation Of Specific Plan And General Plan Amendment, And Community Benefit Designation For 3237 State Street
RECOMMENDATION: That Council:
A. Initiate a Specific Plan to replace the existing RS-7.5/USS zoning designation to allow the community health clinic and other uses;
B. Initiate a General Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from Parks and Open Space to Office/Medium Density Residential (12 dwelling units per acre); and
C. Designate the community health clinic project as a Community Benefit Project.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The federally owned property at 3237 State Street (APN 051-112-019), previously an Army Reserve Center, is in the process of being transferred from the Indian Health Service (IHS)1 to American Indian Health and Services (AIHS), a local non-profit organization, for use as a community health clinic. In order for the proposed ownership transfer to be completed and the community health clinic to be allowed, the Zoning and General Plan designations on the property must be changed. Therefore, AIHS requests that City Council initiate a Specific Plan to replace the existing RS-7.5/USS (Residential Single Unit, 7,500 square-foot minimum lot size/Upper State Street Area Overlay) zoning designation to allow the community health clinic and other uses, and a General Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from Parks and Open Space to Office/Low Density Residential (five dwelling units per acre). Staff, however, recommends a designation of Medium Density Residential (12 dwelling units per acre).

Council Agenda Report
Initiation Of Specific Plan And General Plan Amendment, And Community Benefit Designation For 3237 State Street
February 8, 2022
AIHS also requests that the proposal for the community health clinic be designated a Community Benefit Project in order to receive an allocation of square footage under the City’s Nonresidential Growth Management Program (GMP). See Attachment 1 – Applicant Letter.
The initiation request was presented to City Council on February 9, 2021. After much discussion, City Council postponed the initiation and requested that the project be reviewed by the Planning Commission before returning to Council. Council expressed interest in the Planning Commission providing comments on the allowed uses in the Specific Plan and requested that the applicant provide conceptual plans for the Planning Commission to review, since no plans were presented to Council. Council also requested that the applicant subsequently return to Council with information on the projected costs of implementing the proposed project and the ability of AIHS to fund the project.
Planning Commission reviewed the proposal on November 11, 2021 and were in general support of the proposed Specific Plan uses, the proposed General Plan land use designation, and the proposed plans, and recommended that City Council initiate the Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment. See Attachment 2 – Planning Commission Minutes, and Attachment 3 – Planning Commission Staff Report.
The updated applicant letter includes the Specific Plan and project plans that were reviewed by the Planning Commission, as well as the new financial information requested by Council.
Approval of the initiation will allow the applicant to submit a Planning Application, and the designation of the project as a Community Benefit project will allow the project to request additional square footage. At this stage in the process, it does not commit City Council to the language of the Specific Plan nor the land use designation change for the General Plan Amendment.
DISCUSSION:
Project Description
The project consists of a new community health clinic for American Indian Health and Services (AIHS) on a 2.57-acre site located at the southeast corner of State Street and Las Positas Road. The proposal includes renovation of the existing buildings, including demolition of 512 square feet and the addition of 4,012 square feet of nonresidential floor area, resulting in a total of 21,486 square feet. The existing parking lot would be restriped to accommodate 115 parking spaces. Landscaping and public improvements would also be installed. The existing main building is considered a historic resource; therefore, exterior changes require approval by the Historic Landmarks Commission.

Background
Land Transfer between City and Federal Government
The City acquired the land now known as MacKenzie Park from the federal government in 1956. At about the same time, the Army Reserve Center was established.
Subsequently, the City and the federal government negotiated two 99-year lease agreements to reconcile the respective uses and site improvements not aligning with property boundaries. A 0.3-acre portion of the federally owned property is leased to the City for public right-of-way purposes along State Street and for use as part of MacKenzie Park. In exchange, the City provides a lease to the federal government of approximately
0.3 acres of land from MacKenzie Park. When the lease agreements were approved by City Council, it was the intention that the leased portions of land would be transferred to the respective agencies. Eventually, this land transfer was authorized by City Council, and subsequently approved by a vote of City residents in 2013 (as required by Section 520 of the City Charter pertaining to the transfer of public park land). The land transfer is currently in the last stages of completion. The land transfer will result in the project site increasing to approximately 2.57 acres in size. The land transfer exhibit is provided in the attached Planning Commission staff report.
Process for Disposal of Federally Owned Property
When disposing of federally owned property, there is a specific process mandated by federal law. When a federal agency no longer needs a property to carry out its program responsibilities, it reports this property as “excess,” and a Notice of Availability is prepared by the General Services Administration (GSA). The purpose of the notice is to determine whether there is any further federal government need for the property and starts a 30-day timeline for agencies to submit letters of interest. If another federal agency identifies a need for that property, it can be transferred to that agency. (For the subject project, see next section on page 4.)
If no other agency within the federal government responds to the notice, the property is determined “surplus” and may be made available for other uses through public benefit conveyances (PBC), including homeless use, negotiated sales, or public sales based on GSA's determination of the property’s highest and best use.
As soon as it is declared surplus, GSA coordinates with the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to determine if a property is suitable and/or available for use to assist the homeless, and it must first consider transferring the property as a homeless conveyance before any other public benefit conveyance can be considered. A PBC allows the federal government to lease or transfer title of surplus property to qualified entities for public uses at a substantial discount (up to 100 percent of fair market value).
The intent of a PBC is to support uses that benefit the community as a whole.
Council Agenda Report
Initiation Of Specific Plan And General Plan Amendment, And Community Benefit Designation For 3237 State Street
February 8, 2022
GSA's Office of Real Property Utilization and Disposal notifies state and local agencies of the availability of any surplus federal real property that they may be eligible to acquire under certain laws. Sales of surplus property to public agencies may be negotiated at fair market value without restrictions on use. A public agency or institution has 30 days from the date on the notice to advise the regional office of interest in the property. The regional office reviews the formal application with other federal agencies with an interest in the property's disposition. If the application is approved, the conveyance is completed.
If state and local governments or other eligible non-profits do not wish to acquire the property, GSA can dispose of surplus property via a competitive sale to the public, generally through a sealed bid or auction. An exhibit showing the process is provided in the attached Planning Commission staff report.
Pending Land Purchase by American Indian Health and Services The project site was declared excess property by the federal government, and a Notice of Availability of Excess Real Property was issued on May 12, 2017. Indian Health Service (IHS), the principal federal health care provider and health advocate for American Indian and Alaska Native people, responded to the notice. IHS purchased the property from the U. S. Department of Defense and it was transferred to them in January 2021.
AIHS is a designated Urban Indian Health Program and IHS is allowed, through federal statute, to transfer the property to an Urban Indian Health Program. AIHS is in the process of purchasing the property at fair market value (thus reimbursing IHS for their payment).
AIHS has recently made the required down payment to IHS.
AIHS is currently leasing space at 4141 State Street and would move to the subject property to create a permanent clinic. AIHS would renovate the existing buildings as previously described.
The federal government is not required to adhere to local land use designations or development standards; however, because the property will ultimately be sold to AIHS, and will no longer be controlled by a federal government agency, the proposed use of the site must comply with local Zoning and General Plan designations. Therefore, the proposal includes requests for a Specific Plan and a change to the General Plan designation, explained further below.
Based on the process outlined in the section above regarding disposal of federally owned property, once a federal agency expresses an interest in the property, the land is no longer available for other uses. Therefore, the City is not able to enter into any negotiations with the federal government for use of the property.
AIHS has been renting space in the community since 1994 and is looking forward to the stability of property ownership. In the event that circumstances change, and AIHS is not Council Agenda Report
Initiation Of Specific Plan And General Plan Amendment, And Community Benefit Designation For 3237 State Street
February 8, 2022
able to maintain ownership of the property, the property could be sold with future uses subject to the approved Specific Plan.
First City Council Review
Following review by the City’s Pre-Application Review Team (PRT) in July 2020, City Council held a public hearing to initiate the Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment for the project site. After much discussion, City Council postponed initiation of the Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment and referred the project to the Planning Commission.
Council expressed interest in the Planning Commission providing comments on the allowed uses in the Specific Plan. Council requested that the applicant provide conceptual plans for the Planning Commission to review, since no plans were presented to Council.
Council had concerns regarding what would happen if the plan for AIHS was not successful, and requested that financial information be presented when it returned to Council. Council also indicated that the City has for many years been interested in acquiring this property. Council requested that the Planning Commission provide a recommendation to City Council regarding the Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment.
Specific Plan
The subject property, zoned RS-7.5/USS (Residential Single Unit, 7,500-square-footminimum lot size/Upper State Street Area Overlay), allows for single-unit residential development (one unit per lot), as well as other types of residential uses. If subdivided under existing zoning, the size of the lot would allow up to 15 units, or a maximum density of 5 units per acre2. Other public and semi-public uses and limited commercial uses can be permitted with issuance of a Conditional Use Permit. A community health clinic, as proposed by AIHS, is not an allowed use under current zoning, nor is it allowed with a Conditional Use Permit.
In order to accommodate the proposed community health clinic, staff recommended a Specific Plan be prepared rather than simply changing the zoning designation of the property to O-M (Office Medical) to allow the clinic, as well as medical and dental offices.
The purpose of the Specific Plan is to further restrict the allowed uses (i.e., allow some O-M uses but not all), and to allow other uses that provide a clear public benefit (e.g., affordable housing) in the event the AIHS clinic is no longer in operation. Staging for emergency services, if needed by a public agency, would also be allowed at any time.
A Specific Plan is intended to replace the base zone of the property (i.e., RS-7.5/USS), and the use regulations and development standards contained in the Specific Plan take precedence over the Zoning Ordinance, where applicable. The required findings that the Planning Commission and City Council must make in order to adopt a Specific Plan are as follows:
2 Please note that the parcel could only be subdivided if the General Plan designation were changed from the current Parks and Open Space designation.
Council Agenda Report
Initiation Of Specific Plan And General Plan Amendment, And Community Benefit Designation For 3237 State Street
February 8, 2022
1. The Specific Plan implements and is consistent with the General Plan; and
2. The proposed development will be superior to development otherwise allowed under conventional zoning.
The proposed Specific Plan includes the following allowed uses:
any nonresidential use allowed in the O-M (Office Medical) zone; any residential use allowed in the O-M (Office Medical) zone provided all units are restricted to very-low-, low-, or moderate-income housing; and staging for emergency services by a public agency.
The first version of the proposed Specific Plan reviewed by City Council also specified public facility uses and park and recreation facility uses. These two items are not specified in the current version (reviewed by the Planning Commission) because these uses are allowed in the O-M zone with a Conditional Use Permit, and therefore would also be allowed under the Specific Plan (as currently proposed) with a Conditional Use Permit.
During early review of the project, staff stated that public improvements along both State Street and Las Positas Road would be required as conditions of approval for the Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment, with implementation required prior to Certificate of Occupancy for the health clinic. Staff has more recently determined that the requirement for public improvements should be delineated in the Specific Plan because there may be circumstances where public improvements would not have typically been required. The timing of the public improvements would be based on the building permit type and would be determined by the Community Development and Public Works Departments at the time of building permit application submittal.
Planning Commission comments on the Specific Plan are discussed below.
General Plan Amendment
The subject property is currently designated as Parks and Open Space in the General Plan. This land use allows for public and private parks, and recreational facilities. A community health clinic, as proposed by AIHS, is not allowed under this designation.
The applicant has requested a General Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from Parks and Open Space to Office/Low Density Residential (five dwelling units per acre). Absent this proposal by the applicant, staff would not propose a General Plan land use change for this site. In previous meetings with the applicant team, staff encouraged the applicant to propose a land use designation that would narrow the allowed uses to the proposed clinic use and other uses that provide a broad community benefit, including affordable housing and public uses.
Staff recommends a designation of Medium Density Residential (12 dwelling units per acre) rather than the proposed Low Density Residential (five dwelling units per acre).
Council Agenda Report
Initiation Of Specific Plan And General Plan Amendment, And Community Benefit Designation For 3237 State Street
February 8, 2022
Other land use designations in the vicinity include Commercial/Medium High Residential (15–27 dwelling units per acre) and Office/Medium High Residential (15–27 dwelling units per acre). Low Density Residential occurs to the south of the project site in the Samarkand single-family residential neighborhood and north of the site (beyond the Commercial/Medium High Residential designation fronting State Street) in the San Roque neighborhood. There are no Office/Low Density Residential (five dwelling units per acre) designations in the City. Furthermore, a single-unit residential subdivision at this location with 7,500-square-foot-minimum lot sizes would be out of character with surrounding development at this major street intersection. Combined with the Specific Plan restriction to affordable housing, staff believes that the Medium Density designation would provide appropriate public benefit.
Planning Commission comments on the General Plan Amendment are discussed below.
Community Benefit Designation
The conceptual plans for the community health clinic include an increase in nonresidential floor area. A total of 512 square feet would be demolished and 4,012 square feet would be added, for a net increase of 3,500 square feet. Due to the location of the project site in the Upper State Development Area, with respect to the City’s Nonresidential Growth Management Program, the project would qualify for an allocation of 1,000 square feet from the Minor Addition category, but none from the Small Addition category.
The remaining 2,500 square feet could be allocated from the Community Benefit category if the project is designated a Community Benefit Project by City Council. Community Benefit projects must qualify as a Community Priority, Economic Development, or New Vehicle Sales project. A Community Priority project is described as having a broad public benefit, not principally operated for private profit, and necessary to meet a present or projected need directly related to public health, safety or general welfare (e.g., museums, childcare facilities, health clinics).
The proposed use is a health clinic. Therefore, staff recommends that City Council designate this project as a Community Benefit Project, as it qualifies as a Community Priority project. As a result, the project would be able to seek the necessary square footage for the project (i.e., 2,500 square feet) with Development Plan approval by the Planning Commission. Designation as a Community Benefit Project enables staff to accept a Development Plan application for processing, but does not commit the Council, or any City agency, board or commission to approval of the project or its design.
Planning Commission Review
On November 11, 2021, the Planning Commission reviewed and commented on the Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment. In the Planning Commission staff report four specific questions were asked of the Commissioners:
Council Agenda Report
Initiation Of Specific Plan And General Plan Amendment, And Community Benefit Designation For 3237 State Street
February 8, 2022
Are the uses proposed in the Specific Plan appropriate? Shall uses be added or removed?
Is the proposed General Plan land use designation appropriate? Do you have comments on the proposed project plans?
Can you provide a recommendation to the City Council for the initiation of the Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment, as presented, or as revised during the course of the Planning Commission hearing?
The Planning Commission staff report includes the list of allowed uses in the O-M Zone (see Exhibit E of the report). In regard to the Specific Plan uses, some Commissioners were not in support of including mobilehome park, permanent recreational vehicle parks, and banks and financial institutions uses; one Commissioner could be more flexible on allowing banks and financial institutions; and one Commissioner supports restricting the allowed uses to park and recreational facilities, public facilities, and medical and dental clinics. All Commissioners were in support of the proposed medical clinic, staging for emergency services, and 100% affordable residential uses. One Commissioner wanted to also include community care facilities for elderly care and hospices, daycare centers, supportive and transitional housing, and college and trade schools.
In regard to whether the General Plan land use designation should be changed from Parks and Open Space to Office/Medium Density Residential (12 dwelling units per acre) or Low Density (5 units per acre), four of the five Commissioners preferred the medium high density over the low density requested by the applicant.
The Commission provided unanimous support for the proposed project plans and a unanimous recommendation to City Council for initiation of the Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment.
Please note that the applicant did not revise the draft Specific Plan after the Planning Commission hearing. The Planning Commission’s majority recommendation and individual comments are being provided to the Council for your consideration.
Project Cost and Funding Analysis
The applicant has estimated the costs for the project, including public improvements, to be $16,188,040. Sources of project funding are anticipated to consist of:
1) Property Deposit ($1,088,000 or 6.7%);
2) Cash on Hand ($4,352,000 or 26.9%);
3) Federal Funding - Urban Indian Health funds, stimulus funding, increases to contracted patient reimbursement ($3,800,000 or 23.5%); 4) Capital Campaign and/or Future Federal Funding ($2,000,000 or 12.4%); and 5) Financing - traditional bank financing, based on AIHS historic revenue generation of approximately $50,000 per month ($4,948,040 or 30.6%).
Council Agenda Report
Initiation Of Specific Plan And General Plan Amendment, And Community Benefit Designation For 3237 State Street
February 8, 2022
AIHS concludes that they have the ability to successfully fund the proposed project.
Conclusion
The main purpose of the initiation of the Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment is to allow the applicant to submit a Planning Application, and the designation of the project as a Community Benefit project will allow the project to request additional square footage for development of the site. It does not commit City Council to the language of the Specific Plan nor the land use designation change for the General Plan Amendment; however, it does provide some certainty to the applicant that the overall proposal could be approved.
Input from City Council on the Specific Plan language and the General Plan Amendment designation will be helpful to staff and the applicant as the project moves forward through the application review process. There will be opportunities for further public input and revisions to both the Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment with both requiring a recommendation from the Planning Commission and final approval and adoption by the City Council.
NEXT STEPS:
If the Specific Plan and General Plan amendment are initiated by Council, and the project is designated as a Community Benefit Project, the following additional steps would be required in order for the proposed project to be approved:
Applicant to submit a Planning Application for the Development Plan, Specific Plan, and General Plan Amendment.
Historic Landmarks Commission hearing to review the conceptual design and accept the Historic Structures/Sites Report.
Planning Commission hearing to approve the Development Plan and make a recommendation to the City Council to adopt the Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment.
City Council hearing to approve the proposed Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment.
Historic Landmarks Commission hearing(s) to grant Project Design and Final Approvals.

Commissioner comments:
Commissioner Lodge:
• Believes that the uses proposed in the Specific Plan are appropriate and cannot think of any to be added or removed.
• Would support the medium high housing density which would allow up to 27 units per acre.
• The General Plan land use designation is appropriate. • The project plans are utilizing the existing building and adding on to it to provide dental services and believes that it is very appropriate to the uses of the clinic and will be even more so when added on to it.
• There is plenty of parking.
• The proposed gardens get rid of some of the pavement which is good. • Would like to proceed with Specific Plan, believes it is a Community Benefit Project, and recommends that Council move forward with the requested clinic.
Commissioner Wiscomb:
• The Specific Plan should include the medical offices with the medium high residential and 100% affordable.
• The Specific Plan should include the public agency for emergency services and the public improvements on State Street and Las Positas. • There are uses in the OM Zone that she is not in favor of, including the mobilehome park, permanent recreational vehicle parks, and banks and financial institutions. • Would like Staff to check if mobile home parks and solar energy systems can be removed from the OM Zone uses.
• The proposed General Plan land use designation is appropriate. • Understands that the plans are concept and thinks that they are really great. • Appreciates the 21% landscaping and the healing/wellness gardens associated with the plans.
• Can provide a recommendation to Council for the initiation of the Specific Plan and General Plan Amendment with her suggestions of the medical offices, public agency for emergency services, medium high housing and 100% affordable, and public improvements to State and Las Positas.
Commissioner Bonderson:
• Agrees with Commissioner Wiscomb on every point she made.
Planning Commission Minutes November 11, 2021
• Not as firm with regard to allowing bank or financial institution use and would be more flexible on whether to include that use.
• In support of maximizing the designation of density for residential; not to force the current applicant to use the housing option, but to have that opportunity available in the future.
• Would love to see the entire project be mixed-use where the current design proposed would be on the first floor and housing could be on the second or third floor.
• Supports the presented project design in terms of both the architecture and landscape.
• Interested in seeing how this project might come to life having such a beautiful landscape area on the corner and outdoor uses for the property. • Commends the applicant for thinking about the use of their parking lot area and having outdoor services due to the COVID-19 events.
• In agreement with Commissioner Wiscomb on the topics of Specific Plan, General Plan, and Initiation.
• Would like to make sure that the recommendation to Council is clear.
Commissioner Reed:
• Generally supports the clinic use.
• Would like to keep the overarching uses as close to parks and open space as possible in order to be respectful of the lower density in the area and being adjacent to a public park.
• Recommends the low density residential.
• Supports restricting allowed uses to park and recreation facilities, public facilities, and medical and dental clinics.
• Supports including the public improvement recommendation. • Supports the project plans.
• Supports the General Plan land use designation.
• Could make the recommendation to Council with his suggestions.
Vice Chair Escobedo:
• The proposed uses are appropriate and he supports the medical offices and staging for emergency services.
• Would like to see a higher density, specifically medium high. • Would like the following uses to be included in the specific plan: community care facilities for elderly care and hospices, daycare centers, supportive and transitional housing, and college and trade schools.
• Supports the proposed General Plan land use designation. • Excited about the project design.
• In support of Commissioner Wiscomb’s comments.
• Supports the healing garden, the additional landscaping, and common areas for patients to wait.

CITY OF SANTA BARBARA
COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: February 8, 2022
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Administration Division, Finance Department
SUBJECT: Execute Agreement With OpenGov, Inc., For On-line Digital Budget Book And Appropriate General Fund Reserves In Fiscal Year 2022 RECOMMENDATION: That Council:
A. Authorize the Finance Director to execute a one year agreement with OpenGov, Inc., for a total of $117,543 to transition from a printed budget document to an on-line, interactive digital format for the City’s budget; and
B. Appropriate available General Fund reserves in Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 in the amount of $117,543 in the Finance Department.
DISCUSSION:
The City’s annual budget is available on the City’s website as well as printed in hardcopy for elected officials and a select number of staff. Staff recommends transitioning from the printed budget document to an interactive, digital budget book, which would be presented in a more understandable way, broaden citizen engagement, and strengthen public trust.
The platform is a product of OpenGov Inc., with whom the City currently contracts for their transparency platform. The addition of this platform allows staff to create a more collaborative, interactive experience with heightened transparency for the public.
The City would access an online budget book tool using the “story” module from OpenGov. This module allows staff to present financial information, performance objectives, and department information in an easy to understand format while still maintaining many characteristics in the current book. The system also has the potential to replace existing static reports with interactive virtual reports that members of the public will have greater access to view and learn about a variety of City functions.
Staff presented an overview of the proposed online budget tool to the Finance Committee on December 14, 2021, and the Finance Committee voted unanimously to support this Agenda Item No. 12
Council Agenda Report
Execute Agreement With OpenGov, Inc., For On-line Digital Budget Book And Appropriate General Fund Reserves In Fiscal Year 2022
February 8, 2022
initiative and bring the item to the City Council for consideration and approval of the agreement.
Once the City has implemented the “stories” module for the upcoming FY2023 budget in the coming months, staff will look to expand leveraging the OpenGov platform and functionality further by implementing the Workforce Planning module which will allow staff to more easily create scenario analyses that will save time over current calculation methods. It will also allow for a more centralized process with departments during the budget development process as it integrates with the City’s current financial management system.
The system could potentially replace other databases for the City, such as the Capital Improvement Plan and Performance Objectives databases, in the future.
BUDGET/FINANCIAL INFORMATION:
Staff is recommending implementing the Reporting and Transparency platform for the online budget book for the FY2023 budget which will be published in April 2022.
Implementing this tool was not a project included in the FY2022 adopted budget; however, staff recommend proceeding with implementing this platform for the FY2023 budget process. This strategy will allow the City to have the platform in place for a year, give staff time and experience using the new tool, and be fully prepared to utilize this platform in preparing for the next 2-year financial plan process for the FY2024 & FY2025 budget. Staff has negotiated an agreement for a one year term, and will plan to extend it in future fiscal years.
The FY2022 annual license for the reporting and transparency platform is $81,283, and professional consulting services of $36,260 are required to ensure the application is set up correctly and fully integrates with the City’s financial system for a total FY2022 project cost of $117,543.
Staff is seeking the City Council’s approval of an appropriation request of available General Fund Reserves of $117,543 in the Finance Department. General Fund reserves are projected to be below policy target levels of 15% disaster reserves and 10% contingency reserves totaling 25% reserves by the end of FY2022. This appropriation request will further reduce available reserves.
Additionally, staff is estimating approximately 200 staff hours could be diverted to other activities, such as budgetary analysis or quality control as a result of efficiencies. There will also be expenditure savings in printed document costs for paper, binders, toner, and other items totaling approximately $5,000 annually. It is anticipated that many more staff hours could be diverted across all departments in future years as additional process and reporting efficiencies are achieved once the systems have been fully utilized.
The Finance Department’s FY2023 proposed budget will include the necessary appropriations to implement the budgeting and workforce planning suite, which will Council Agenda Report
Execute Agreement With OpenGov, Inc., For On-line Digital Budget Book And Appropriate General Fund Reserves In Fiscal Year 2022
February 8, 2022
require funding from all City departments to proportionately fund a share of the total cost of the suite. Budget appropriation will be necessary for each subsequent contract year.
The City’s budget documents can be accessed here, and the online financial transparency tool can be accessed here.
SUSTAINABIILTY AND RESILIENCE IMPACT:
Implementing this project is in line with greater sustainability and resilience goals of the City through leveraging technology to disseminate information to a broad audience and minimizing the use of paper and other materials.
A copy of the agreement is available for public review in the Finance Department by contacting Keith DeMartini, Finance Director, at [email protected].
