Current Status
The Project was substantially completed on October 25, 2024. The preceding recommendations are the anticipated final Project costs that are required to compensate the contractor and the consultants for additional work from unforeseen conditions including water intrusion issues, framing, and finishes to compensate for existing building conditions and various differing site conditions.

BUDGET/FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

The following table summarizes the total construction phase costs of the Project.

ESTIMATED TOTAL PROJECT CONSTRUCTION COST
**Cents have been rounded to the nearest dollar in this table.

Construction Contract including current Change Order Authority $11,426,525 Requested Construction Change Order Authority 309,718
Construction Management/Inspection 416,337
Current Support Services For Construction (Including LMA) 775,202 Requested Construction Support Services 18,500
Other Construction Costs (testing, etc.) 63,770
Project Total $13,010,052
The Michael Towbes Library Plaza portion of the Project is funded through donations ($2.9M) raised by the Santa Barbara Public Library Foundation. The remainder of the Project is funded primarily by Measure C Capital Funds. With the recommended transfer of existing Measure C appropriations (see Resolution), there will be sufficient expenditure funds to cover the remaining cost of this Project, including the construction contract and the design and construction support service agreements.

A copy of the contract amendments may be requested from the Public Works Department for public review by contacting [email protected].

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

The Project was determined to be categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Project which met the criteria as described under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Existing Facilities and the Santa Barbara Municipal Code Chapter 22.100.070.C.1, was determined to result in less than significant environmental effects and is therefore exempt from the provisions of CEQA.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: December 10, 2024
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Waterfront Department
SUBJECT: Acceptance of $7,500 From Heal the Ocean [Resolution] RECOMMENDATION:

That Council adopt, by reading of title only, a Resolution of the Council of the City of Santa Barbara Amending Resolution No. 24-066, Adopting the Budget for Fiscal Year 2025, to Increase Revenue and Expenditure Appropriations by $7,500 in the Fiscal Year 2025 Waterfront Department Abandoned Vessel Fund for a Donation Received from Heal the Ocean to Incentivize Participation in the Department’s Vessel Turn In Program.

DISCUSSION:

For the past two years, the Waterfront Department and Heal the Ocean have engaged in dialogue regarding new strategies to prevent boats from going aground on City beaches.

Vessels anchored in the open ocean are subject to waves and weather and can be at risk of going aground, especially when unoccupied. These grounded vessels present a public safety and environmental hazard, in addition to costing the City tens of thousands of dollars to remove. In a manner of weeks last winter, costs incurred by the Waterfront Department to remove and abate 3 grounded vessels amounted to over $37,000.

It is significantly less expensive to dispose of a derelict vessel than to dispose of a boat that has gone aground. To increase the likelihood of vessel owners voluntarily turning in their derelict or underutilized vessels, the Waterfront Department will partner with Heal the Ocean on a Vessel Surrender Incentive Program. This program aims to use a small monetary incentive ($500 per vessel) for vessel owners to voluntarily turn in their derelict boats.

The $7,500 donation from Heal the Ocean will enable the Waterfront Department to incentivize boat owners to turn over a vessel before it becomes a problem. Any leftover funds from the donation will be used towards vessel disposal costs of either beached or Agenda Item No. 7

turned in vessels. The City will work with Heal the Ocean to promote the program and educate vessel owners of their responsibility to properly dispose of their vessels.

BUDGET/FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

Revenues and appropriations in the Fiscal Year 2025 Waterfront Department Abandoned Vessel Fund will be increased by $7,500 to fund a Vessel Surrender Incentive Program.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: December 10, 2024
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Public Works Department
SUBJECT: Amendment for the Design Contract for the De La Vina Street Bridge Replacement Project [Agreement]
RECOMMENDATION:

That Council authorize the Public Works Director to execute the Third Amendment to the City Professional Services Agreement No. 25,746-A with Bengal Engineering, Inc., in the amount of $58,671 for engineering design services and authorize the Public Works Director to approve expenditures of up to $20,000 for extra services that may result from necessary changes in the scope of work.

DISCUSSION:

Background
On March 11, 2016, the City received authorization through Caltrans from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to initiate the engineering design phase for the De La Vina bridge replacement project. The De La Vina Street Bridge (Bridge) is currently designated as “structurally deficient,” which indicates a structural inadequacy and elements of the structure are in poor condition. The Bridge is structurally deficient because the deck and superstructure are in poor condition, and the structural evaluation indicates the structure is not suitable for rehabilitation, meaning it requires replacement.

In December 2016, Council authorized the Public Works Director to execute a City Professional Services Agreement with Bengal Engineering, Inc. (Bengal) for design services for the De La Vina Street Bridge Replacement Project (Project) in the amount of $812,242. Bengal was selected to provide design services through a competitive Request for Proposals process that followed strict Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM) requirements. Prior contract amendments resulted in a current contract authority of $1,297,146. The Third Amendment to the contract with Bengal is recommended to complete the design phase of the Project.

Project Description
The Project is located on upper De La Vina Street between Alamar Avenue and Vernon Road. According to Caltrans’ records, the Bridge was initially built in 1916 and widened in 1926. The Project will remove and replace the structurally deficient 100-year-old Bridge Agenda Item No. 9
File Code No. 530.04

with a new bridge that will meet current seismic, safety, and design standards. This will include realigning roadway approaches, modifying building structures, abating hazardous building materials, relocating utilities including domestic water and sanitary sewer facilities, constructing channel walls, planting landscape materials, creek and habitat restoration, and adding storm water treatment facilities.

Design Consultant Services Amendment
Staff recommends that Council authorize the Public Works Director to execute the Third Amendment to City Professional Services Agreement with Bengal in the amount of $58,671. The unanticipated complexity of the Bridge’s design includes the relocation of thousands of fiber optic cables, multiple revisions to the Bridge section to accommodate utilities, complexity in completion of regulatory permits and bid documents, and Federal Emergency Management Agency support. Staff also recommends authorizing the Public Works Director to approve expenditures of up to $20,000 for extra services that may result from necessary changes in the scope of work.

Community Outreach
Community outreach for the Project was initiated in the conceptual design phase and will continue throughout design and construction. The design was vetted through both an internal and public review process. The Project was reviewed by the Architectural Board of Review and was granted design approval. Hamner Jewel & Associates met with each impacted business owner and property owner, discussed the Project’s direct impacts on their property, and presented offers to each impacted property owner in accordance with the specific right of way needs. Business owner and property owner coordination followed the process outlined by the LAPM. Elements of community outreach will be included in the construction contract, and a robust outreach plan will be implemented prior to and during construction.

Current Project Status
The Project is in the final design phase. Construction is expected to begin in the spring of 2025. Construction will take place over two years to maintain vehicular traffic on De La Vina Street throughout construction.

The FHWA has delegated authority to administer the HBP to Caltrans for the State of California. Federal HBP funds will be used to reimburse the City for 88.53 percent of eligible design, right of way, and construction phase costs. City funds are needed for the remaining 11.47 percent of eligible costs and 100 percent of any ineligible items that may be required.

There are sufficient appropriations in the Streets Grant Capital Fund to cover these costs, including the required City match. Additional funds will be appropriated later to cover potential additional right of way capital costs and construction costs. The total cost of the construction phase is approximately $15 million.

CITY OF SANTA BARBARA

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: December 10, 2024
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Public Works Department
SUBJECT: Amendment to Contract with IDE Americas for Charles E. Meyer Desalination Plant Operations [Agreement]
RECOMMENDATION:

That Council authorize the Public Works Director to execute Amendment 1 to the Design/Build/Operate Agreement with IDE Americas for the Charles E. Meyer Desalination Plant.

DISCUSSION:

The Charles E. Meyer Desalination Plant (Plant) is an integral part of the City of Santa Barbara’s water supply plan. In 2014, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to reactivate the Plant. IDE Americas (IDE) proposal scored the highest, and over several months, a Design, Build, Operate (DBO) Contract was negotiated in good faith. In July 2015, the City Council unanimously approved a contract with IDE to design, build and operate the Plant.

The Plant restarted operations in May 2017 with a contracted capacity of 3,125 acre-feet of water per year. The DBO Contract includes an initial five-year operating period and allows for two optional five-year extensions at the City’s discretion.

The operation of the Plant has encountered several challenges and has been unable to consistently meet the annual contracted water production volume, energy, and chemical guarantees. There have also been operational issues associated with high staff turnover and permit violations. IDE and the City disagree about the underlying causes of the Plant’s challenges. The City and IDE entered into a Tolling Agreement to preserve all disputed claims for future resolution.

IDE has communicated through its annual financial reports that it has been consistently operating at a loss year-over-year, which it asserts has limited its ability to be successful under the existing DBO Contract terms. The DBO Contract was negotiated in good faith with provisions to adjust for market inflation. However, IDE underestimated the cost of operating the Plant, which directly contributed to its financial position.

Agenda Item No. 10
File Code No. 540.1
Council Agenda Report
Amendment to Contract with IDE Americas for Charles E. Meyer Desalination Plant Operations [Agreement]
December 10, 2024

To support IDE in improving Plant operations, City staff engaged in extensive negotiations with IDE executives. The primary outcome of negotiations was to adjust key contract terms to improve IDE’s financial position, ensuring they are not operating at a significant structural deficit going forward, in exchange for IDE making necessary investments to improve reliability and performance of the Plant.

The proposed DBO Contract Amendment 1 (Amendment) will increase IDE’s compensation to align with current operating costs, which were verified by staff as being below market-rate. In return, IDE has committed to a strategic plan to immediately begin work improving the Plant’s reliability and efficiency. City staff believe this Amendment provides IDE with the opportunity to demonstrate it can improve the performance of the Plant it was hired to design, build and operate for the benefit of the City’s water supply and customers.

A second amendment is under negotiation with IDE to improve reliability of the offshore pumps. It is anticipated that the second amendment would come before City Council for consideration in early 2025.

BUDGET/FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

This Amendment increases the annual fixed operating costs by $1,871,311 per year, bringing the total to $4,894,079 per year. These additional costs were anticipated in the recently adopted water rates, and the City’s Water Operating fund has sufficient funds to cover these costs. Under the Water Supply Agreement, operating costs for the Desalination Plant are proportionately shared between the City’s Water Operating Fund and the Montecito Water District.

A copy of the contract amendment is available for public review and may be requested from the Public Works Department by contacting [email protected].

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

The Amendment with IDE Americas for the Charles E. Meyer Desalination Plant Operations does not have any direct or indirect physical changes in the environment; therefore, this amendment falls outside of the definition of a “Project” under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines § 15378 (b)(5) as administrative activities of governments that will not result in physical changes in the environment are not subject to CEQA environmental review.

WATER COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:

This item was presented to the Water Commission at its meeting on November 21, 2024, and the Commission voted 5-0-0 in support of staff’s recommendations.

(DSB) to provide landscape maintenance, sidewalk cleaning, placement of holiday lighting, and general maintenance of the 00-1200 blocks of State Street and many cross streets between Chapala and Anacapa Streets.

Should DSB dissolve prior to the start of Fiscal Year 2026, this agreement will transfer to DSBIA as the successor organization.

BUDGET/FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

Funding for the marketing and promotions agreement in the amount of $303,800 is included as a General Fund transfer to the Public Works Downtown Parking Fund budget for Fiscal Year 2025. The amount of this contract is intended to support DSB marketing and promotional activities for the entirety of Fiscal Year 2025.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: December 10, 2024
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Waterfront Department
SUBJECT: Memorandum of Understanding with the Commercial Fishermen of Santa Barbara [Agreement]
RECOMMENDATION:

That Council authorize the Waterfront Director to execute a Memorandum of Understanding with the Commercial Fishermen of Santa Barbara for grant support from December 13, 2024, through December 31, 2028.

DISCUSSION:

The Waterfront Department and the City of Santa Barbara have long supported local commercial fishing efforts in numerous ways. Most recently, the Waterfront has provided funding and staff time in support of the Commercial Fishermen of Santa Barbara’s (CFSB) efforts to identify and develop space for an “Ocean Collective” that would include resources to serve, and grow, the local commercial fishing economy. Over the past several months, CFSB has been successful in their efforts working with Santa Barbara City College (SBCC) to identify space for the Ocean Collective.

To help fund the design and development of this project, the Commercial Fishermen of Santa Barbara (CFSB) recently submitted a letter of interest (LOI) for the State Uplift Catalyst Predevelopment Grant, which was accepted on November 1, 2024. The Catalyst Predevelopment grant is part of the California Jobs First Program that awarded Uplift Central Coast $9M in funding to support community projects and initiatives in the Central Coast region. With the acceptance of the initial LOI, CFSB is now required to submit a full grant application, which is due December 13, 2024. As a means of strengthening CFSB’s grant application and confirming the City of Santa Barbara’s support of CFSB’s efforts, the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was created between the City of Santa Barbara and CFSB. The MOU outlines the City’s role in supporting CFSB (primarily through in-kind services and staff support) should the grant funds be awarded.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: December 10, 2024
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Public Works Department
SUBJECT: Public Outreach Services for Design of the Vic Trace Reservoir Replacement Project [Agreement]
RECOMMENDATION:

That Council authorize the Public Works Director to execute a City Professional Services Agreement with Katz & Associates, Inc., in the amount of $586,250 for design phase public outreach services for the Vic Trace Reservoir Replacement Project and authorize $58,625 for potential extra services, for a total expenditure authority of $644,875.

DISCUSSION:

Background
The Vic Trace Reservoir (Reservoir) is located at 740 Dolores Drive in the City of Santa Barbara’s (City) Mesa neighborhood. It was constructed in 1956 as part of a partially buried, 10-million-gallon concrete reservoir used for treated drinking water storage and is the City’s largest reservoir. The City identified the Vic Trace Reservoir Replacement Project (Project) as critical in its Water Distribution Infrastructure Plan (WDIP). The WDIP provides strategic guidance and practical recommendations to address the City’s water distribution and water supply needs through the Planning Year 2050. The Reservoir was recommended for replacement due to its age, increasing repair needs, and importance to the City’s overall water storage portfolio.

Project Description
The Project will design and construct two new buried reservoirs totaling the same existing storage capacity and evaluate repair needs at nearby hydraulically connected pipelines, valves, and pump stations. Due to the Project’s large scale, anticipated construction impacts, and surrounding residential neighborhoods, the City engaged with Katz & Associates Inc., (K&A), a communications and outreach consultant, early in the Project’s planning process to begin proactive community outreach and inform the scope of the Project’s design. The first phase of the public outreach included the development of a Strategic Communication Plan, which guided community engagement and input throughout the Project. The Strategic Communication Plan is complete, and it identified Agenda Item No. 13
File Code No. 540.09

stakeholders, developed Project messaging, and outlined specific methods of community engagement through each phase of the Project. The second phase of public outreach services is the implementation of the Strategic Communication Plan through design development up to construction.

Current Status
The Project is completing the planning phase and preparing to transition into the design phase. Previous contracts awarded by Council for this Project include:
 Rincon Consultants Inc., (Rincon): initial environmental services, including reports on biology, archeology, and soil conditions awarded on June 13, 2023.  K&A: Phase 1 public outreach services awarded on October 17, 2023.  Kennedy Jenks Consultants Inc., (KJ): preliminary design services awarded on May 14, 2024.
 Rincon: second phase of environmental services awarded on May 14, 2024.

Upcoming Project milestones include selecting and awarding additional contracts for:
 Project Professional Planner services (expected winter 2024/2025);  Final Design (expected spring of 2025); and
 Construction Management and Constructability Review (expected spring of 2026).

Planning and design phase work is expected to take up to three years, followed by the award of a construction contract. Onsite demolition and construction of the two new buried reservoirs would take place for a duration of approximately two years.

Public Outreach Services
Staff recommends that Council authorize the Public Works Director to execute a contract with K&A in the amount of $586,250 for the second phase of outreach services for the Vic Trace Reservoir Replacement Project, and authorize $58,625 for potential extra services, for a total expenditure authority of $644,875. K&A is experienced in this type of work and was selected as part of a competitive Request for Proposals process. They were the most qualified from a total of eight firms that submitted proposals. The selection was made based on K&A’s qualifications to perform the full scope of public outreach services for successful delivery of the Project, including a communication plan development, and public outreach implementation during design and construction.

K&A has successfully completed Phase 1 services on-time and within budget. The contract recommended in this report is for the second phase of outreach services to implement the Strategic Communication Plan during design, which will include activities such as development of outreach materials, facilitating public workshops, updates to Water Commission and Council, contractor outreach, pre-construction community events, school outreach, and a ceremonial groundbreaking event. The first public workshop is anticipated in spring of 2025.

CITY OF SANTA BARBARA

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: December 10, 2024
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Human Resources Department
SUBJECT: Approval of Benefit Plans Effective January 1, 2025 RECOMMENDATION: That Council:

A. Approve the renewal rates for the: CalPERS Health Plans; Delta Dental Plans; Vision Service Plans; Employee Assistance Program (EAP); Health and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) benefits; and
B. Authorize the City Administrator to execute any necessary contracts or any amendments to agreements or contracts to effectuate the new rates.

DISCUSSION:

Each year, the City obtains renewal rates and new benefits for the benefit plans covering its eligible active and retired employees. These benefit plans include Medical, Dental, Vision, Employee Assistance Program (EAP), Health Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA), Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (DCA-FSA), Term Life Insurance, and Disability Insurance programs. Staff coordinated this renewal process with the CalPERS Health Program and with the City’s benefits broker, USI Insurance Services. The Employee Benefits Committee (comprised of members from the various employee groups), has been apprised of the renewal information and the renewal rates. Staff recommends that the City renew its agreements with all current medical, dental, vision, and EAP plan providers.

Medical Plans
The City joined CalPERS Health Program effective January 1, 2020, replacing direct contracts with private insurers such Aetna and Kaiser. The CalPERS Health Program allows the City to offer employees and retirees a variety of health plans that best fit their health care needs.

The CalPERS Health Program offers several medical plans in Santa Barbara County including the Anthem Traditional HMO, Blue Shield Access+ and Blue Shield Trio HMO, Agenda Item No. 15
File Code No. 430.06
Council Agenda Report
Approval of Benefit Plans Effective January 1, 2025
December 10, 2024

PERS Gold PPO, PERS Platinum PPO, and PORAC PPO for members of the Peace Officers Research Association of California. Further, employees who reside in the Ventura County or Los Angeles County have access to additional plans such as the Anthem Select HMO, Kaiser Permanente HMO, UnitedHealthCare HMO, and HealthNet Salud HMO.

Under the CalPERS Health Benefits Program, retirees under the age of 65 have the same health plan choices as active employees and at the same rates. Medicare-eligible retirees have several Medicare Supplement plan options.

Health premiums for Region 2, which includes Santa Barbara and Ventura County, overall will increase an average of 9.01% for the HMO plans and 8.74% for the PPO plans.

Premiums for the CalPERS health plans remain competitive as they are one of the largest purchasers of health insurance in the state. Staff conducted a comparison of health plan rates against a competitor of CalPERS. CalPERS’ health plan premiums, over a threeyear period average, were still less than the competitor.

Dental Plans
There are three dental plans available for employees to select from. They are: the DeltaCare HMO plan, the Delta Dental DPO plan, and the Delta Dental Buy-Up DPO plan.

The Delta Dental PPO plans are similar to a medical PPO model plan in that they have a larger provider network, and it indemnifies the enrollees to select a provider of their choosing without a primary care dentist pre-designation requirement. The DeltaCare HMO plan is similar to a medical HMO model plan with a small provider network, and the enrollee is required to select a primary care dentist within Delta’s network. For 2025, Delta Dental, provider of the three dental plans for the City, will keep the HMO dental rates unchanged, with a slight decrease to the PPO dental rates. Rates for all three plans are displayed on Attachment 2.

Vision Plan
There are two vision plans available for employees to select from. They are VSP Basic and VSP Buy-Up Option. For 2025, there are no changes to both VSP plans.

Employee Assistance Program (EAP) – Employer Paid Fees
OptumHealth Behavioral Solutions provides outpatient psychological services for the City’s EAP. No increase is proposed for the 2025 EAP rate.

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) – Employer Paid Fees
The Health and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts are administered by Discovery Benefits. No increase is proposed for the 2025 FSA fees.

Council Agenda Report
Approval of Benefit Plans Effective January 1, 2025
December 10, 2024

Basic Life/AD&D and Long-Term Disability Insurance – Employer Paid Premiums The Standard Insurance Company administers the Basic Life/AD&D and Long-Term Disability Insurance plans. No increases are proposed for the 2025 rates from the Standard.

Employee and Spouse Supplemental Life Insurance Plans – Employee Paid Premiums The Standard Insurance Company administers the voluntary employee-paid Supplemental Life Insurance plans offered to all benefited employees. No increases are proposed for the 2025 rates.

Short Term Disability Insurance Plan – Employee Paid Premiums The Standard Insurance Company administers the voluntary employee-paid Short Term Disability Insurance plans offered to Management, Police and Supervisors. No increases are proposed for the 2025 rates.

Benefits Administration Fee
As of July 1, 2020, the City contracted with Benefit Coordinators Corporation (BCC) for online enrollment and electronic benefits administration. There is an administration fee of $7.09 per enrolled employee per month. The current agreement with the Benefits Administration vendor keeps those fees unchanged until June 30, 2025.

Summary
Staff recommends that the CalPERS Health Benefits Program along with the Delta Dental DPO plans, DeltaCare HMO plan, VSP Vision plans, Optum EAP, Discovery Benefits FSA’s, Standard Life/AD&D and Disability Insurance plans be renewed for 2025 at the proposed premium rates.

Proposed 2025 monthly rates for the CalPERS Health Benefits Program for Active employees and Retirees are listed in Attachment 1.

Proposed 2025 monthly rates for Delta Dental PPO, Delta Dental Buy-up PPO plan, VSP Vision, VSP Buy-up plan, Optum EAP, Discovery Benefits FSA, Standard Life/AD&D and Disability Insurance Plans are listed in Attachment 2.

BUDGET/FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

Established City contribution amounts and employee pre-tax payroll deductions will fund the 2025 Plan Year (calendar year) estimated overall benefit premium increase.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: December 10, 2024
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Sustainability & Resilience Department
SUBJECT: Santa Barbara Clean Energy 2023 Power Content Label Attestation RECOMMENDATION:

That Council approve the attestation specified under California’s Power Source Disclosure Program, which requires the governing Council of a public agency providing retail electric service to endorse the accuracy of each annual report and power content label, as submitted to the California Energy Commission, for the previous year.

DISCUSSION:

The California Public Utilities Code requires all retail sellers of electric energy, including Santa Barbara Clean Energy (SBCE), to disclose “accurate, reliable, and simple-tounderstand information on sources of energy” that are delivered to their respective customers via an annual Power Content Label (PCL). The PCL is analogous to a nutrition label, conveying information regarding the various power sources/products that are procured on behalf of each retail electricity customer. Each of California’s retail electricity sellers, including SBCE, will have unique PCLs based on internally adopted procurement policies, statutory procurement mandates, and related power purchases that were completed during the reporting year.

The PCL format is highly prescriptive, offering little flexibility to retail sellers on how to present the information to customers and the California Energy Commission (CEC) administers these requirements under California’s Power Source Disclosure (PSD) Program. Information presented in each PCL includes the proportionate share of total energy supply related to specific fuel sources/resource categories, including both renewable and conventional generating technologies.

An emission factor for each retail service offering, calculated using the CEC’s prescribed methodology, is also provided in the PCL. If a retail seller procures a certain percentage of its energy requirements from the market at large (meaning, sources of power that cannot be traced back to a specific generator), the PCL must identify such purchases as “unspecified sources of power.” It is common for most retail electricity sellers to utilize some amount of “unspecified power.”
Agenda Item No. 16
File Code No. 630.06
Council Agenda Report
Santa Barbara Clean Energy 2023 Power Content Label Attestation December 10, 2024

In accordance with statewide mandates and internally adopted planning targets, SBCE procured a substantial portion of its electric energy supply from generating resources utilizing various renewable fuel sources in 2023. Per the California Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS), renewable fuel sources may include biomass & waste, eligible hydroelectricity, solar, geothermal, and wind.

For SBCE Green Start customers, 59.4% of total energy supply was sourced from RPSeligible renewable energy resources in 2023. When comparing percentages presented in Schedule 3 of the Power Source Disclosure Report and Power Content Label, please note that these distinct reports apply different numeric rounding conventions, so percentages may not match exactly. For SBCE 100% Green customers, 45% of total energy supply was sourced from bundled California RPS-eligible renewable energy resources, with the remaining 55% sourced from carbon-free large hydroelectric sources.

In order to fulfill its PSD Program reporting obligations for 2023, SBCE will provide the CEC with the City Council’s attestation regarding the accuracy of information included in each annual Power Source Disclosure Report (submitted to the CEC earlier in 2024, according to the applicable reporting deadline) and PCL, consistent with the following element of PSD Program regulations (where subdivision (a)(1) refers to a third-party audit, which is not necessary for public agencies, including the City.):

A retail supplier that is a public agency providing electric services is not required to comply with the provisions of subdivision (a)(1) if the board of directors of the public agency submits to the Energy Commission an attestation of the veracity of each annual report and power content label for the previous year.

While developing SBCE’s PCL, California Choice Energy Authority (CalChoice) and its technical consultants performed a detailed review of all power purchases completed for the 2023 calendar year. The review found no inaccuracies or inconsistencies in such information, which was subsequently entered in SBCE’s annual Power Source Disclosure reports and PCL.

Therefore, Council is being asked to provide an attestation covering both the PCL and associated Annual Reports to fulfill its attestation requirements for 2023, as specified in the excerpt above. Furthermore, consistent with applicable regulations, all customers currently enrolled in the SBCE program will receive the PCL via electronic communication or U.S. mail on or before January 31, 2025.

Upon approval, a copy of this staff report and related meeting minutes will be forwarded to the CEC, thereby completing SBCE’s attestation requirements under California’s Power Source Disclosure Program for the 2023 calendar year.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
AGENDA DATE: December 10, 2024
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Community Development Department
SUBJECT: Appeal of Planning Commission’s Approval of a Hotel Project at 17– 21 West Montecito Street
RECOMMENDATION: That Council:

A. Consider the appeal of Steven A. Johnson of the Planning Commission’s approval of a Parking Modification, Development Plan, and Coastal Development Plan, and determination that the project is exempt from further environmental review under California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15332 (Infill Development), for the Hotel Project at 17–21 W Montecito Street; and
B. Direct staff to return to Council with a Decision and Findings Resolution reflecting the outcome of the appeal.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

On October 3, 2024, the Planning Commission reviewed and approved a 16,508-squarefoot, 45-foot-tall, three-story hotel with 44 guest rooms, a 10,000-square-foot underground parking area, and a 3,459-square-foot roof deck at 17–21 W Montecito Street.

On October 7, 2024, an appeal of the Planning Commission’s approval was filed by Steven A. Johnson (Attachment 1). The issues being appealed relate to potential flood hazards associated with the proposed underground parking garage.

Staff’s recommendation is that the appeal be denied, and the Planning Commission’s approval be upheld because the project, as designed, is in conformance with the 2022 California Building Code and with federal and City regulated flood provisions.

Agenda Item No. 18
File Code No. 640.07
Council Agenda Report
Appeal of Planning Commission’s Approval of a Hotel Project at 17–21 West Montecito Street
December 10, 2024

DISCUSSION:

Proposed Project
The project proposes construction of a 16,508-square-foot, 45-foot-tall, three-story hotel with 44 guest rooms and a 10,000-square-foot underground parking area with 40 valet parking spaces and two accessible parking spaces. The project requires the merging of three parcels into a single 11,839-square-foot lot.

The project site is currently developed with two one-story buildings that would be demolished: the building at 17 W. Montecito is a retail store (currently for Ducati and Vespa), 19 W. Montecito is vacant (currently containing two large storage containers), and the building at 21 W. Montecito is vacant. The site is zoned HRC-2/SD-3 (Hotel and Related Commercial, Coastal Overlay) with a Local Coastal Plan Designation of Hotel & Related Commerce II / Medium High Residential (maximum 27 dwelling units per acre).

The project site is located in a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) regulated AE Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA)1. The proposed design is compliant with FEMA’s definition of a “mixed-use” structure that has been reviewed and determined to be in compliance with FEMA Guidelines by FEMA Floodplain Management Specialist (Mitigation), Insurance Branch, FEMA Region 9, FEMA Building Sciences, and California Department of Water Resources, Division of Flood Management. The design of the mixed-use hotel over a basement is fully compliant with:
 (CFR) 44 CFR Part 60.3 Code of Federal Regulations
 ASCE/SEI 24-14 Design Flood Elevation (DFE) Criteria
 FEMA / NFIP Technical Bulletin 6 (TB-6) / January 2021 Exceptions  City Floodplain Ordinances
Planning Commission Review
On October 3, 2024, the Planning Commission reviewed and approved the proposed project. The Planning Commission approved the following discretionary applications in support of the project:

A. A Parking Modification to allow fewer than the required number of parking spaces (SBMC §28.90.100 and SBMC §28.92.110.A.1);
B. A Development Plan to allow the construction of approximately 11,255 square feet of net new nonresidential development (SBMC Chapter 28.85); and C. A Coastal Development Permit to allow the proposed development in the NonAppealable Jurisdiction of the City’s Coastal Zone (SBMC §28.44.060). 1 SFHAs are defined as the area that will be inundated by the flood event having a one-percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year; also referred to as the 100-year flood.

Appeal of Planning Commission’s Approval of a Hotel Project at 17–21 West Montecito Street
December 10, 2024

The Planning Commission staff report and resolution, including findings and conditions, are provided as Attachments 2 and 3, respectively.

Appeal Issues
On October 7, 2024, Steven A. Johnson filed an appeal of the project with four specific issues, all related to flooding. The appeal states that the project is: 1) not consistent with General Plan Land Use policy 5.1-35; 2) the Planning Commission approval was based on receiving incomplete information; 3) the City’s Flood Plain Administrator incorrectly confirmed that sub-grade parking is consistent with FEMA regulations; and 4) the development is not consistent with the principles of sound community planning. These are the only issues being challenged and before City Council.

Issue #1: The project is not consistent with General Plan Land Use Policy 5.1-35.

The project site is not located in any Shoreline Hazard Areas. Specifically, it is not located in Potential Shoreline Hazards Screening Area 6 (Inland Coastal Flooding Area).

Therefore, Coastal Land Use Plan Policy 5.1-35 is not applicable to this project and the issue at appeal is moot. Refer to Attachment 4 for the Shoreline Hazards Screening Areas Map.

Issue #2: The Planning Commission approval was based on incomplete information.

The staff report states that the Floodplain Administrator confirmed that sub-grade parking for the proposed hotel is allowed, but no reasoning is provided.

For floodplain management purposes, the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) Flood Insurance Manual considers buildings with both “non-residential” and “residential” uses to be “mixed-use buildings.” Fully engineered mixed-use buildings may be designed with below-grade parking areas per flood code regulations.

Habitable spaces in hotels, such as sleeping rooms, are considered as residential floor area (FEMA Technical Bulletin 6); non-residential areas are “common areas that serve non-habitable purposes such as parking, storage, offices, meeting rooms, swimming pools, and exercise facilities” (FEMA P-2037).

NFIP Flood Insurance Manual defines a mixed-use building as one in which the total floor area devoted to non-residential uses is 25 percent or more of the total floor area within the building. In this instance, the hotel’s non-residential areas (including parking garage) exceed 25 percent of the building floor area; therefore, the proposed hotel qualifies as a mixed-use building per flood code requirements.

The code criteria for mixed-use buildings are as follows:

Council Agenda Report
Appeal of Planning Commission’s Approval of a Hotel Project at 17–21 West Montecito Street
December 10, 2024

 FEMA / NFIP technical bulletin 6 (TB-6) / January 2021 Requirements for dry flood-proofed below-grade parking areas under nonresidential and mixed-use buildings  Two National Flood Insurance Program regulations

2.2 dry flood-proofed below-grade parking areas:
permitted under mixed-use buildings in Zone A.

The project complies with the code criteria because all hotel habitable spaces, such as sleeping rooms, are elevated one additional foot above FEMA’s required Base Flood Elevation (BFE), referred to as the Design Flood Elevation (DFE), and the one-story basement garage below the podium is professionally designed and engineered; used solely for parking cars; and is dry flood proofed. Dry flood-proofing is a combination of measures that make a structure and its utilities and equipment watertight with all elements substantially impermeable and with structural components having the capacity to resist flood loads.2
Issue #3: The hotel project at 101 Garden is similar; both hotels propose sub-grade parking in a flood zone. Staff misclassified both projects by asserting that parking basements are within the building. That is a novel interpretation, unsupported by any FEMA documents, practices by other jurisdictions, or technical studies provided by the applicant. To the contrary p. 3-10 of the 2024 Flood Insurance Manual says otherwise.

First and foremost, 101 Garden Street is a separate project and should not be considered as part of this appeal nor should that project be introduced into this project record.

FEMA P-2037 definition of non-residential specifically includes parking. This means that the basement garage floor area qualifies as non-residential floor area and should be included in the 25 percent area that counts toward the mixed-use definition.

Flood insurance definitions and standards found in the NFIP Flood Insurance Manual are different from building code compliance definitions and standards found in the NFIP Floodplain Management regulations.

Furthermore, the quoted section was taken from Table 4 of the NFIP Flood Insurance Manual and is specific only to “Residential Condominium Building” and NOT to this specific hotel project, which is defined as a “Mixed-Use Building”, as described under “Other Residential Building under the manual..” (Attachment 5) The City’s Flood Plain Administrator correctly confirmed that sub-grade parking is consistent with FEMA regulations.
2 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA); National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP); American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) 24-14 and City Ordinances.

Council Agenda Report
Appeal of Planning Commission’s Approval of a Hotel Project at 17–21 West Montecito Street
December 10, 2024

Issue #4: Approval requires a finding that the development is “consistent with the principles of sound community planning.” Finding a parking basement as “within the building” is not consistent with the principles of sound community planning.

Basement parking is included in the building floor area in accordance with FEMA Floodplain Management Division.

Projects are considered consistent with the principles of sound community planning when they are consistent with the City Charter, Local Coastal Program, and applicable elements of the General Plan, including the Land Use Element, Conservation Element, Safety/Seismic Safety Element, Noise Element, and the General Plan Map.3 That said, the City’s General Plan alone contains hundreds of policies covering topics ranging from land use and housing to circulation, resource protection, safety, and noise; it is not reasonable to expect every development project to satisfy all General Plan policies. Should policies pose competing or incongruent objectives, a balance is sought to achieve the highest level of compliance possible.

In this case, applicable General Plan policies are found in the Land Use Element, the Environmental Resources Element and Conservation Element, the Historic Resources Element, and the Circulation Element. The proposed hotel development was found to be consistent with the applicable coastal and General Plan policies, as discussed in the Planning Commission Staff Report dated September 26, 2024, and documented in Planning Commission Resolution No. 003-24..

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

The project qualifies for an exemption from further environmental review under Section 15332 [In-fill Development Projects] of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines as discussed in the Planning Commission Staff Report dated September 26, 2024 (Attachment 2).

Additional Applicable Policies
17-21 W Montecito Street
General Plan
Environmental Resources Element
ER4. Incorporation of Adaptation in Development. New public and private development or substantial redevelopment or reuse projects shall estimate the useful life of proposed structures, and, in conjunction with available information about established hazard potential attributable to climate change, incorporate adaptation measures in the design, siting and location of the structures.

Conservation Element, Drainage and Flood Control

1.0 The City shall participate in the Federal Flood Insurance Program so that property owners may receive disaster assistance.

2.0 Floodplain management programs shall be implemented through the Building Officer of the Division of Land Use Controls, and the Flood Control Division.

Circulation Element

16.3.5 Require structures located in designated flood hazard areas to comply with local, State, and Federal building and safety standards.

Safety Element
S46. Development in Flood Hazard Areas. The potential for flood-related impacts to health, safety, and property may be reduced by limiting development in flood-prone areas. New development or redevelopment located within a designated 100-year floodplain shall be required to implement appropriate site and structure designs consistent with regulatory requirements that minimize the potential for flood-related damage, and shall not result in a substantial increase in downstream flooding hazards.

Coastal Land Use Plan
Policy 5.1-35 Development Standards for Potential Shoreline Hazards Screening Area 6 (Inland Coastal Flooding Area) on the Interim Shoreline Hazards Screening Areas Map. New development and substantial redevelopment shall:

A. Avoid high flood hazards unless determined to be infeasible or more damaging to coastal resources;
B. Where avoidance of high flood hazards cannot be achieved, minimize flood risk by increasing elevation of structures, restricting basements or habitable floor area below grade, restricting grading, restricting fencing or yard enclosures that cause water to pond, and/or utilizing flood proof materials consistent with local building requirements; and
C. Be designed to assure stability and structural integrity and neither create nor contribute significantly to downstream flooding, erosion, geologic instability, or destruction of the site or surrounding area over the expected life of the development, factoring in the effects of sea level rise.

Figure 5.1-1 Interim Shoreline Hazards Screening Areas Map (excerpt) ATTACHMENT 5
Appeal of 21 W Montecito project, PLN2023-00147
The project suffers from numerous defects:

1. The design of the driveway ramp allows incursion of floodwater into the basement.

2. The building is residential; sub-grade parking under residential is not allowed at this site.

3. There is no designated floodway for Mission Creek. As such, 44 CFR 60.3 c (10) requires an engineering analysis to be prepared for the project.

No such analysis was prepared.

4. ASCE 24 requires an investigation of areas suspected of being subject to flash floods.

No such investigation was done.

Details provided on following pages.

1. The design of the driveway ramp allows incursion of floodwater into the basement.

Facts agreed to by both staff and appellant:

Governing standard: the more restrictive of
SBMC 22.24, ASCE 24, 44 CFR Parts 59 and 60, CBC
ASCE 24 classifies hotels as residential.

The project is a hotel, as described by:
- project plans
- applicant letter
- staff report
- DFE
Sub-grade parking is not allowed under residential buildings in flood zones (all standards).

Staff’s position: ANALYSIS
Staff verbally implied (at the Oct 3 PC review) that the building does not satisfy the test to be considered “other residential”. Staff argues that for the combined hotel plus parking, more than 25% of the floor area is nonresidential.

But staff disregarded the definition from FEMA Technical Bulletin 6 (2021) page 3:
“Residential building: Building designated for habitation. Ancillary areas of residential buildings that serve only residents are residential ancillary areas and include laundry facilities, storage rooms, mail rooms, recreational rooms, parking garages, and exercise facilities.”
Further consider FEMA P-2037 (2019) Section 1.7:
“From a floodplain management perspective, buildings with multiple dwelling units and ancillary use areas that support the dwelling units are not considered mixed-use buildings, so the entire building is considered residential.”

Can you assist?
My understanding is that a residen5al structure with a basement is not allowed in a flood zone.

I believe this is also true for an "Other Residen5al Building”.
