COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: May 23, 2023
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Recreation Division, Parks and Recreation Department SUBJECT: Haley Street Youth Center Lease Renewal with Channel Islands YMCA [Agreement]
RECOMMENDATION:

That Council authorize the Parks and Recreation Director to execute a three-year lease agreement with the Channel Islands YMCA for the Haley Street Youth Center commencing on July 1, 2023, and ending on June 30, 2026.

DISCUSSION:

The Parks and Recreation Department administers a number of lease agreements for facility space at below-market rates to local non-profit social service providers at its neighborhood centers.

This 1,500 square foot, ADA accessible facility is located at 701 East Haley Street, in the Eastside neighborhood of Santa Barbara. Since the inaugural lease in 2014, the Channel Islands YMCA offered a variety of programs every week at the “Haley Street Youth and Family Center.” However, during the height of the pandemic, when the facility was closed for an extended period, senior leadership and stakeholders decided to align their Youth & Family Services division more effectively by shifting their outreach and case management from their Noah’s Anchorage Crisis Shelter for minors to the Haley Street location. This undertaking supports the Channel Islands YMCA mission of providing programs to people of all ages, races, religious beliefs, and economic status to promote youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.

In March 2022 the Channel Islands YMCA received a grant that funded new office equipment and minor interior facility alterations. The newly renovated facility re-opened in January 2023 and now offers free daily drop-in services designed for transitional-age clients aged 18-24 who are no longer eligible for child service and are either experiencing homelessness or need help attaining basic needs such as food and clothing.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: May 23, 2023
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Creeks Restoration and Water Quality Improvement Division, Sustainability & Resilience Department
SUBJECT: Professional Services Agreement with FM3 Research for Creek and Ocean Water Quality Public Awareness Research [Agreement] RECOMMENDATION:

That Council authorize the Sustainability & Resilience Director to execute a professional services agreement with FM3 Research in the amount of $56,750 to conduct public awareness research related to creek and ocean water quality and ongoing education and outreach efforts.

DISCUSSION:

Since 2003, the Creeks Restoration and Water Quality Improvement Division (Creeks Division) has administered a wide-ranging education and outreach program to increase community awareness of sources of creek and ocean water pollution, and to encourage residents to adopt behaviors that help prevent pollution. These efforts include, but are not limited to: paid advertising, community events, social media, partnering with local businesses, youth education programs, and volunteer events.

A public opinion survey conducted in 2002 provided baseline information about the community’s knowledge on issues related to creek and ocean water quality and was used to develop an education plan to guide outreach efforts. Follow-up surveys were conducted in 2008, 2013, and 2018, and results were used to refocus and help guide education and outreach efforts.

The City’s Storm Water Management Plan (SWMP) requires that the City implement outreach campaigns to educate the community. The SWMP also requires that the City conduct a public awareness survey once every five years to gauge the success of those efforts and measure public awareness of local water quality issues. This latest effort will fulfill the City’s SWMP five-year update requirement.

The 2023 proposed research project will include a dual-mode (telephone and web) survey of at least 600 residents of the City of Santa Barbara. The survey will be conducted in both English and Spanish and will include methodologies to ensure participation by Agenda Item No. 13
File Code No. 540.11

residents without landlines and those who have moved to the area but retained non-805 phone numbers. One pre- or post-survey focus group will help further explore effectiveness of Creeks Division messaging. The data collected will be analyzed and a report of the results and recommendations will be produced.

The Creeks Division issued a request for proposals in March 2023 and three proposals were received. FM3 Research was selected due to their comprehensive project proposal and experience in public opinion research and storm water/urban runoff water quality issues.

BUDGET/FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

The total cost to complete this project is $56,750. There are sufficient expenditure appropriations in the adopted Creeks Restoration and Water Quality Improvement Fund Budget to fund the contract.

SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

Reducing polluted urban runoff is critical for the protection of local creek and ocean water quality. An important goal of the Creeks Division’s public outreach effort is to educate residents about specific behaviors that can help to improve water quality. The public awareness research project will measure individuals’ awareness of creek restoration and water quality issues, the impact of outreach and media strategies used, and provide guidance for future outreach and education efforts.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: May 23, 2023
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Engineering Division, Public Works Department
SUBJECT: Agreements for Commissioning Services and Fire Protection Design for the Santa Barbara Police Station Project [Agreement] RECOMMENDATION: That Council:

A. Authorize the Public Works Director to execute a City Professional Services contract with 3C Engineering in the amount of $72,750 for Commissioning Agent services for the Santa Barbara Police Station Project and authorize the Public Works Director to approve expenditures of up to $7,275 for extra services of 3C Engineering that may result from necessary changes in the scope of work; and B. Authorize the Public Works Director to execute a City Professional Services contract with Great Plains Fire Specialists in the amount of $72,000 for fire protection design services for the Santa Barbara Police Station Project and authorize the Public Works Director to approve expenditures of up to $7,200 for extra services of Great Plains Fire Specialists that may result from necessary changes in the scope of work.

DISCUSSION:

Project Description
The Santa Barbara Police Station Project (Project) consists of a 65,000-square-foot office building and 86,000-square-foot parking structure to accommodate the Police Department, which currently functions out of four different locations. The consolidation of all divisions and locations into one building, along with fleet and personnel vehicles in a secure parking structure, will provide efficiency, cohesiveness, and a strong work environment in a safe, high-functioning building. Ensuring the building performs as designed will require testing and certification of the different systems that are planned.

Commissioning Services
The new Santa Barbara Police Station will be a highly technical and high-performance building that will rely on multiple systems to function properly, efficiently, and perform as designed. To ensure that all systems and functions of the building that require testing, Agenda Item No. 14
File Code No. 700.08

verification or certification are performing in accordance with specifications, a Commissioning Agent is hired to oversee and verify the process.

A Request for Proposal (RFP) process was conducted for commissioning services and included a thorough scope of work to ensure that all firms interested in this role would meet the high expectations required for the Project. Six firms responded to the RFP, and three were selected for interviews. Of the three firms interviewed, two were asked in follow-up discussions to refine their scope of work with particular attention to the building envelope testing. Both firms responded with revised proposals, and 3C Engineering was selected as the highest rated firm. 3C Engineering has performed well on previous and relevant projects regarding responsiveness, budget, and schedule, and received high praise from all references.
3C Engineering will oversee the testing to ensure the building is functioning and operating as designed prior to occupation by the Police Department. 3C Engineering will also ensure within the first ten months of using the building that all warranty items and systems meet expectations. 3C Engineering will begin work as design development nears completion and the construction documents begin, and their work will continue throughout the Project and into the first year of occupancy.

Staff recommends that Council authorize the Public Works Director to execute a contract with 3C Engineering in the amount of $72,750 for Commissioning Services and $7,275 for potential extra services. 3C Engineering is highly experienced in this type of work.

Fire Protection Design Services
Normally, design for fire protection for sprinklers and clean agent fire suppression is submitted following initial completion of the construction drawings. However, the design of the Project will have several intricate structural systems, one of which includes an aesthetic component. Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) is a lumber product that will be used throughout the building to provide the structural framework within the steel columns and beams. CLT benefits the Project through an aesthetic component by providing a wood finish with some walls and high ceilings. Because CLT is in the structure and the finish, all fire protection sprinklers and pipes in those areas will be exposed. As such, advance coordination of the fire protection design of fully developed construction drawings is important to keep the aesthetic integrity of each space. This action will ensure the piping and sprinklers will have the least visual impact possible while still meeting code requirements.

City staff initially released an RFP to hire a fire protection designer; however, no proposals were received. Through a strong recommendation from the Mechanical-ElectricalPlumbing Engineer for the Project, staff received a reasonably priced proposal to design the fire protection system. Great Plains Fire Specialists (GPFS) is highly qualified to perform this work.

Council Agenda Report
Agreements for Commissioning Services and Fire Protection Design for the Santa Barbara Police Station Project [Agreement]

Page 3 ends

The fire protection design will take place in the early development of the construction drawings. The installation of the fire protection system will be done by another contractor during construction.

Staff recommends that Council authorize the Public Works Director to execute a contract with GPFS in the amount of $72,000 for fire protection design services and $7,200 for potential extra services. GPFS are experienced in this type of work and were highly recommended and qualified.

BUDGET/FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

The costs for these two agreements were previously anticipated and there are sufficient expenditure appropriations in the Police Station Project in the Measure C Capital Fund Budget in Fiscal Year 2023 to fund the proposed agreements, including extra services.

SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

By approving the contract to hire 3C Engineering, the anticipated sustainable components of the design and the energy efficiency of the systems in the Project will be tested and confirmed to meet design criteria and specifications. 3C Engineering will provide additional oversight for the installation and testing of a photovoltaic array and renewable energy components, the efficiency setup of building-wide systems to ensure high performance as designed, and provide full documentation of all test results and certifications for the building.

BACKGOUND:

California Enterprise Development Authority
The Authority is a joint powers authority established by the California Association for Local Economic Development (“CALED”) whose purpose is to issue tax-exempt and taxable conduit revenue Obligations to fund commercial and industrial development projects within member jurisdictions. Federal and state laws allow for cities and counties to join together under cooperative agreements to form joint powers authorities to issue taxexempt and taxable bonds to fund projects that provide a public benefit and serve the needs of residents within the jurisdictions of the participating members. Cities and counties in California utilize joint powers authorities primarily for economies of scale, to access specialized transaction knowledge and resources, and to avoid using valuable local staff time on these types of transactions.

The Authority is a joint powers authority created pursuant to a Joint Powers Agreement, dated June 1, 2006 (the “JPA Agreement”), among the cities of Selma, Lancaster, and Eureka. There are now approximately 250 cities and counties who are associate members of the Authority. The Authority’s activities are dedicated to providing economic development assistance to member jurisdictions as an extension of the economic development assistance provided by CALED to its members.

The JPA Agreement permits any other local agency in California to join the Authority as an “Associate Member.” The Authority has requested that the City of Santa Barbara become an Associate Member of the Authority (Attachment 3). Associate membership in the Authority will assist the City as well as for-profit and nonprofit organizations located within the City in financing industrial and commercial development projects and other public purpose projects within the City. Associate Members are not restricted or inhibited in any way with respect to their independent ability to finance any project in any manner they deem appropriate, which may or may not involve or include the Authority.

Sanctuary Centers of Santa Barbara, Inc.

Sanctuary Centers of Santa Barbara, Inc., a California nonprofit public benefit corporation (the “Corporation”), is committed to the vision of healthy, productive, independent lives for all who receive mental health care and treatment. Since 1976, the Corporation has served over 10,000 clients and their families. The Corporation is committed to the vision of healthy, productive, independent lives for all who receive mental health care and Council Agenda Report

treatment from the Corporation. Responsive doctors and clinicians fully understand that each client will have unique goals and successes. As such, the Corporation’s primary objective is to work closely with its clients to create optimal, individualized treatment plans. The Corporation offers services ranging from inpatient, residential treatment to outpatient therapy and career development services.

DISCUSSION:

The Corporation has requested that the Authority issue bonds, notes, or other evidence of indebtedness (the “Obligations”), from time to time, in one or more series in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $15,000,000 (the “Obligations”). The proceeds of the Obligations will be used, among other things, (a) to finance or reimburse the cost of acquisition, construction, installation, furnishing, and equipping of a five-story facility that will include 34 low-income supportive housing units, an integrated care clinic, and space for related activities and services located at 115 W. Anapamu Street, Santa Barbara, California 93101; (b) to pay a portion of the interest on the Obligations, if deemed necessary or advisable by the Corporation; (c) to provide working capital to the Corporation, if deemed necessary or advisable by the Corporation; (d) to fund a debt service reserve fund, if deemed necessary or advisable by the Corporation; and (e) to pay certain expenses incurred in connection with the issuance of the Obligations.

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution approving the City becoming an Associate Member of the Authority and the execution of the Associate Membership Agreement. Staff also recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution approving the issuance of Obligations by the Authority for the benefit of the Corporation.

BUDGET/FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

There is no financial impact to the City as a result of joining the Authority as an Associate Member or the approval of the issuance of the Obligations. The City is in no way associated with the debt issuance and is not obligated to make debt service payments on the Obligations. In addition, adopting resolutions in no way makes the City a party to the debt issuance. The Authority will act as issuer and perform all necessary legal and administrative responsibilities associated with the financing. The Obligations are special, limited obligations of the Authority payable solely through the repayment of the loan by the Corporation, which repayment is used to pay the principal of and interest on the Obligations. The Obligations issued by the Authority are not an obligation of the City or any member of the Authority. Neither the faith or credit, nor the taxing power of the City, Council Agenda Report

The Business Guidelines state, “It is the responsibility of each restaurant operator to provide outdoor dining in full compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the California Building Code (CBC),” and provide detailed specifications for accessible ramps, seating, and maneuvering space.

Beginning in late 2022, City of Santa Barbara (City) staff began a focused effort to enforce accessibility requirements in parklets. City staff worked with contracted Certified Access Specialists (CASps) to inspect parklets and issue correction notices. Enforcement actions were undertaken as needed, according to Santa Barbara Municipal Code Chapters 1.25 and 1.28.

Enforcement History
The subject property was initially inspected for ADA compliance on November 30, 2022, at 3:03 p.m. City staff and CASps from M6 Consulting performed the inspection. At this inspection, the team observed a gap at the transition greater than half an inch, and an accessible table was not provided within the facility. The inspection team explained the violations and compliance requirements to an employee of the business. A Notice of Violation (NOV) was issued and acknowledged by an employee at the completion of the inspection. The NOV described the violations; gave a correction deadline of December 30, 2022; and included a copy of the Business Guidelines. Please see Attachment 2 for a copy of the NOV.

The CASps re-inspected the facility on January 19, 2023, and observed the gap at the transition had been resolved, but an accessible table was still not provided in the facility.

On January 31, 2023, City staff issued a Notice of Administrative Citation (NOAC) to the business describing the violation, including photographs of the violation, a copy of the NOV and the Business Guidelines, and gave a compliance deadline of February 14, 2023.

The NOAC was hand delivered to the business on January 31, 2023, and an attempt was made to mail a copy via certified mail to the agent of record. Per certified mail tracking, delivery confirmation is unavailable. The hand-delivered notice served as official notice of the continuing non-compliance and correction deadline. Please see Attachment 4 for a copy of the second NOAC and delivery status.

The CASps inspected the facility for a third time on February 23, 2023, and observed an accessible table was still not provided in the Outdoor Business Facility. On March 13, 2023, City staff issued a second NOAC to the business describing the violation and included photographs of the non-compliant tables, a copy of the original NOV, and another copy of the Business Guidelines. The second notice gave a final compliance deadline of March 29, 2023. The second NOAC was hand delivered to the business and mailed via certified mail to the agent of record. Per the certified mail proof of delivery, the notice was delivered and signed for on March 13, 2023. Please see Attachment 4 for a copy of the second NOAC and proof of delivery.

Page 3 ends

Following the second NOAC, the CASps inspected the facility a final time on April 7, 2023, and again, observed no accessible table provided in the facility.

Per Section 7 of the ERETO, “The authorization [to operate a temporary outdoor business facility] shall be suspended for any business that is subject to more than two enforcement actions.” On April 17, 2023, City staff confirmed the violation had still not been corrected and issued a Suspension Notice Removal Order (Attachment 5) with a removal date of April 24, 2023, as authorized by Section 7 of the ERETO. The Suspension Notice Removal Order was hand delivered to the business and a Removal Notice was posted on the facility. Please see Attachment 6 for a copy of the Removal Notice posted at the business.

Taza Restaurant failed to construct their Outdoor Business Facility to ADA and CBC accessibility standards. When notified of their violation and given three opportunities to bring the facility into compliance, they failed to do so in a timely manner. Taza Restaurant has exhausted their opportunities to resolve accessibility violations in their facility.

Please see Attachment 1 for the appellant’s letter of appeal and statement.
