ii. Future development of the project site would be served by the SMPD, located at 1111 West Betteravia Road, approximately 1.5 mile southwest of the project site. The project does not propose a new use or activity that would require additional police services above what is normally provided for similar surrounding public facility uses and residential developments.
The proposed project would not result in a substantial increase in demand for police protection; therefore, potential impacts would be less than significant. iii. The project site is located within the Santa Maria -Bonita and Santa Maria Joint Union High School Districts. Under the proposed PF zoning, future development on the project site would be for expansion of cemetery district facilities. Any future permit applications submitted for development on the site would be reviewed for potential impacts to surrounding schools.
Therefore, the project would not result in a need for new or physically altered school facilities, and impacts would be less than significant.
iv. The City's recreation system is comprised of several local parks and recreational facilities.
The nearest public park to the project site is the Enos Historic House Park, located approximately 1,300 -feet to the east. Future expansion of the cemetery district would not result in an increased demand on existing park facilities in the vicinity and would not result in the need for new or physically altered park facilities; therefore, potential impacts would be less than significant.
v. As discussed above, the proposed project would be subject to applicable fees to offset negligible increased demands on public facilities; therefore, impacts related to other public facilities would be less than significant.
Mitigation Measure(s) incorporated into the project:
Implementation of the proposed project would not result in potentially significant impacts related to public services; therefore, mitigation is not necessary.

X
d.
Result in inadequate emergency access?
X
Setting:
The CEQA Guidelines use Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) as the basis for determining significant impacts, unless the Guidelines provide specific exceptions.
Based on the City of Santa Maria's adopted VMT Thresholds, transportation impacts are considered significant if the proposed project would result in a VMT per capita or office VMT per employee above 85% of the countywide average, consistent with technical guidance published by the OPR. OPR's Technical Advisory lists the following screening thresholds for land use projects. These types of development projects are presumed to have a less than significant impact on VMT and therefore, a less than significant adverse impact on transportation. OPR's Technical Advisory suggests that lead agencies may screen out VMT impacts using project size, maps, transit accessibility, and provision of affordable housing. Screening criteria are as follows:
• Project Size: Projects that are consistent with the Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS) or General Plan and generate or attract fewer than 110 daily trips. • Proximity to High Quality Transit: Residential or office projects within one-half mile of an existing major transit station or stop along an existing high -quality transit corridor can be presumed to have a less than significant transportation impact.
• Affordable Housing Development: Projects where a minimum of 20% of the units are deed restricted for low or very low income residents.
• Local Serving Retail typically less than 50,000 square feet • Infrastructure: Projects that would not likely lead to a substantial or measurable increase the vehicle travel are presumed to be VMT neutral and generally presumed to have a less than significant transportation impact (i.e., induced VMT). These include: Roadway Maintenance and Rehab Projects; Signal Timing/Synchronization/Adaptive Signal Control/Signal Preemption Improvements; Intersection Control Type and Turn Lane Channelization Improvements; Widening for Local or Local Collector Streets; and Transit/Bicycle/Pedestrian Infrastructure Improvements. • Projects that fall within an identified location that demonstrated VMT per Capita for residential projects below 85 % of the countywide average for that metric.
Santa Maria Cemetery GPA, Rezone, and Planned Development Permit April 17, 2023 GPZ2021-0003 & PD2022-0014 Environmental Checklist
The City of Santa Maria's adopted threshold is 85% of the existing countywide baseline VMT per capita, as calculated within the City of Santa Maria for residential uses. The City threshold based on 85% of the countywide average would be 12.34 VMT.
Discussion:
a -b. The project includes the GPA and rezone to allow for the future development of cemetery district maintenance facilities permitted under the Public Facilities zoning. The project applicant has provided a site plan for the development of a cemetery district maintenance building. The project meets the screening criteria to screen out VMT impacts because the project would generate fewer than 110 daily trips (per CEQA). Trip generation estimates were calculated for the conceptual plan using rates presented in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation manual for cemetery employees, with the assumption that no trips represent pass -by trips. The conceptual plan for a maintenance building with three garage bays, an office and a break room, would result in approximately 52 average daily trips, including 11 trips during the AM peak hour and 12 trips during the PM peak hour.
Therefore, this portion of the proposed project would be covered by this screening threshold and would not require VMT analysis pursuant to City Guidelines or SB 743. Further, the project would not exceed the City threshold for VMT per capita and impacts would be less than significant. c. The project would be developed on an existing parcel and would not alter or affect existing street and intersection networks. The project would be required to comply with City design standards for vehicular access and circulation, including construction and remediation haul trips, and the current Fire Code.
Compliance with these standards would prevent hazardous design features and would ensure adequate and safe site access and circulation. The project would not introduce incompatible uses, including vehicles or equipment, to the site or the surrounding area. There would be no impact. d. Access to the project would be provided from Newlove Drive on the north and South College Drive to the east. The proposed project would be required to comply with all building, fire, and safety codes and development plans would be subject to review and approval by the City's Municipal Code. Required review by these departments would ensure the circulation system for the project site would provide adequate emergency access. In addition, the proposed project would not require temporary or permanent closures to roadways and would result in no impacts.
Mitigation Measure(s) incorporated into the project:
Implementation of the proposed project would not result in potentially significant impacts related to transportation; therefore, mitigation is not necessary.

Impact
No Impact
a. Would the project cause a substantial adverse
change in the significance of a tribal cultural
resource, defined in Public Resources Code
section 21074 as either a site, feature, place or
cultural landscape that is geographically defined
in terms of the size and scope of the landscape,
sacred place, or object with cultural value to a
California Native American tribe, and that is:
vi. Listed or eligible for listing in the California
Register of Historical Resources, or in a
local register of historical resources as
defined in Public Resources Code section
5020.1(k), or
X
vii. A resource determined by the lead agency,
in its discretion and supported by substantial
evidence, to be significant pursuant to
criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of Public
Resources Code Section 5024.1, the lead
agency shall consider the significance of the
resource to a California Native American
tribe.
X
Setting:
Approved in 2014, AB 52 added tribal cultural resources to the categories of resources that must be evaluated under CEQA. Tribal cultural resources are defined as either of the following:
1) Sites, features, cultural landscapes, sacred places, and objects with cultural value to a California Native American tribe that are either of the following:
a) Included or determined to be eligible for inclusion in the CRHR; or b) Included in a local register of historical resources as defined in PRC Section 5020.1(k). 2) A resource determined by the lead agency, in its discretion and supported by substantial evidence, to be significant pursuant to criteria set forth in PRC Section 5024.1(c). In applying these criteria for the purposes of this paragraph, the lead agency shall consider the significance of the resource to a California Native American Tribe.
Santa Maria Cemetery GPA, Rezone, and Planned Development Permit April 17, 2023 GPZ2021-0003 & PD2022-0014 Environmental Checklist
Recognizing that tribes have expertise with regard to their tribal history and practices, AB 52 requires lead agencies to provide notice to tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the geographic area of a proposed project if they have requested notice of projects proposed within that area. If the tribe requests consultation within 30 days upon receipt of the notice, the lead agency must consult with the tribe regarding the potential for adverse impacts on tribal cultural resources as a result of a project. Consultation may include discussing the type of environmental review necessary, the presence and/or significance of tribal cultural resources, the level of significance of a project's impacts on the tribal cultural resources, and available project alternatives and mitigation measures recommended by the tribe to avoid or lessen potential impacts on tribal cultural resources.
Passed in 2004, Senate Bill (SB) 18 requires cities and counties to consult with Native American tribes to help protect traditional tribal cultural places as part of a general plan adoption or amendment. Unlike AB 52, SB 18 is not an amendment to, or otherwise associated with, CEQA. Instead, SB 18 requires that, prior to the adoption or amendment of a city or county's general plan, the city or county must conduct consultations with California Native American tribes for the purpose of preserving specified places, features, and objects that are located within the city or county's jurisdiction. Under SB 18, cities and counties must notify the appropriate Native American tribe(s) of intended adoption or amendments to general plans and offer the opportunity for the tribe(s) to consult regarding traditional tribal cultural places within the proposed plan area.
The City sent letters to the local Native American contacts identified by the NAHC on March 23, 2022. To date, the City has not received any requests for consultation from local tribes that were notified regarding the proposed project.
Discussion:
e. i-ii. The project site does not contain any known tribal cultural resources that have been listed, or are eligible for listing, in the CRHR, or in a local register of historical resources as defined in PRC Section 5020.1(k). The potential for the existence of buried archaeological materials within the project area is considered low based on the historic physical setting and extent of previous disturbance. In addition, the City provided notification to local tribes regarding the proposed project and received no comments or requests for consultation. Despite the low sensitivity of the site, discovery of unknown subsurface resources during future earthmoving activities associated with future development of the project site is always a possibility. Unknown significant subsurface resources, as described in Section 5, Cultural Resources, would be considered significant tribal cultural resources, as well. Standard mitigation has been proposed to ensure impacts to any unknown resources that may be encountered during project development would be avoided and/or minimized; therefore, potential project impacts would be less than significant with mitigation.
Mitigation Measure(s) incorporated into the project:

X
e.
Comply with federal, state, and local
management and reduction statutes and
regulations related to solid waste?
X
Setting:
The City operates its own wastewater collection and treatment system. The City's wastewater collection system consists of eight wastewater basins with associated trunk sewers and one treatment plant. The Department of Utilities is responsible for delivering water, treating wastewater, refuse collection, recycling, operating the Santa Maria Regional Landfill and its Household Hazardous Waste Facility, street sweeping, and regulatory compliance. The Water Resources Operation and Maintenance Section is responsible for supplying residents with potable water for domestic, industrial, and fire protection purposes. Solid Waste Collection and Disposal Services consist of six distinct areas: refuse collection/residential, refuse collection/commercial, landfill disposal operations, street sweeping, recycling operations, and regulatory compliance. PG&E is the primary electricity provider and SoCalGas is the primary natural gas provider for the city.
Discussion:
a. The project site is located in a fully urbanized area with existing utility infrastructure in place. The City provides water, wastewater treatment, and solid waste services to the City of Santa Maria. The project also proposes three stormwater catchment basins to reduce stormwater runoff. Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) provides electricity to the project site. Additionally, natural gas on the project site would be provided by the Southern California Gas Company (SoCal Gas), and telecommunications would be provided by Verizon.
Santa Maria Cemetery GPA, Rezone, and Planned Development Permit April 17, 2023 GPZ2021-0003 & PD2022-0014 Environmental Checklist
The existing infrastructure noted above has adequate capacity to support the proposed project.
Therefore, no additional facilities would be required as a result of project implementation and this impact would be less than significant.
f. According to the City's Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP), the City's water supply would meet projected water demands through 2045 (City of Santa Maria 2020). The project would account for approximately 14 employees. Since employees for the cemetery district project would likely be from the existing labor pool within the city and surrounding areas, and would not result in additional population within the city, there would be sufficient water supply to meet projected water demands of the proposed project. Therefore, this impact would be less than significant. g.
The City Utilities Department owns and operates the wastewater system for the City of Santa Maria.
Currently, the City disposes of all of its treated wastewater through percolation ponds under its Waste Discharge Requirements permit. The City's wastewater treatment plant was expanded in 2009 and has a current capacity of 13.5 million gallons per day, allowing the City to serve a population of up to 120,000 people. The current population of the city is approximately 107,445 (DOF 2021). Employees for the cemetery district project would likely be from the existing labor pool within the city and surrounding areas, and would not result in additional population within the city. According to the City's UWMP, the per capita wastewater generation for the city service area is approximately 68 gallons per day (City of Santa Maria 2020). Based on the projected population in the City and this wastewater generation rate, the City has determined that the existing facilities for wastewater management will continue to be adequate for future wastewater demands. Therefore, this impact would be less than significant. d -e. The City currently disposes of solid waste at the Santa Maria Regional Landfill, located at 2065 East Main Street in Santa Maria. The City has also initiated development of a new landfill —the Santa Maria Integrated Waste Management Facility (Los Flores Ranch Landfill; Facility No. 42 -AA -0076), located in the Solomon Hills approximately 8 miles southwest of the city and 0.5 mile east of US 101 in an unincorporated portion of Santa Barbara County. The new facility will have a design capacity of approximately 131 million cubic yards of waste with an estimated closure date of 2105. The permit for the new facility is consistent with the Santa Barbara County Integrated Waste Management Plan, which was approved by the California Department of Resource Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) on October 18, 2011, as well as the standards adopted by CalRecycle, pursuant to PRC Section 44010. In addition, the design and planned operation of the facility is consistent with the State Minimum Standards for Solid Waste Handling and Disposal as determined by the enforcement agency based on review of the January 11, 2011, Joint Technical Document, pursuant to PRC Section 44009.
The project would rely on the City's solid waste collection services and facilities. Based on the existing and projected available capacity, the proposed development would not result in the need for new or expanded solid waste facilities. To the extent possible, all materials used onsite for demonstrations would be recycled and waste would be minimized. Therefore, potential impacts associated with generation of solid waste in excess of local infrastructure capacity and compliance with state and local solid waste regulations would be less than significant.
Mitigation Measure(s) incorporated into the project:
Implementation of the proposed project would not result in potentially significant impacts related to utilities and service systems; therefore, mitigation is not necessary.

X
Setting:
The project is located in an urban area within Santa Maria. The Integrated Regional Multi -Hazard Emergency Response Plan for the Cities of Santa Maria and Guadalupe was established in order to clearly delineate the planning areas procedures and policies when responding to a major emergency event. This includes any significant threat or potential disaster which could impact the health, safety, and property of the public within the planning area. The objectives of this plan include, but are not limited to, identifying authorities and their respective responsibilities for planning and response activities, establishing the policies for providing emergency information to the public, and describing the resources available to support emergency response activities.
The urbanized areas of Santa Maria are generally protected from most aspects of grassland and brush fires.
However, accumulating weeds along roadsides and in vacant lots make even urban locations potentially hazardous from a wildland fire standpoint. For these reasons, an enforceable weed abatement program was established in 2017 to reduce these risks whenever structures are present.
The California Fire Code provides minimum standards for many aspects of fire prevention and suppression activities. These standards include provisions for emergency vehicle access, water supply, fire protection systems, and the use of fire resistant building materials.

Discussion:
a. Implementation of the proposed project would not result in a significant temporary or permanent impact on any adopted emergency response plans or emergency evacuation plans. No breaks in utility service or road closures would occur as a result of project implementation; therefore, potential impacts would be less than significant.
b. The project is located within a developed site located within an urban area of Santa Maria. Future development of the project site would not substantially change the existing topography of the project site.
Future development would be required to meet all applicable standards for fire prevention within the CBC and California Fire Code, including having adequate access to water for fire protection purposes, provision of fire detection equipment, fire sprinklers, etc. Future development would also be required to comply with the City weed abatement program. Therefore, the project would not exacerbate wildfire risks, and thereby expose project occupants to, pollutant concentrations from a wildfire or the uncontrolled spread of a wildfire, and potential impacts would be less than significant. c. The project would include the installation of new electricity, water, wastewater, stormwater, and natural gas infrastructure and connections to City infrastructure. These proposed infrastructure components would occur within existing developed land and would be required to be installed in full compliance with applicable CBC and California Fire Code regulations; therefore, potential impacts associated with exacerbation of fire risk from installation of new infrastructure would be less than significant d. The project site is generally flat and would not be located near a hillslope or in an area subject to downstream flooding or landslides. The project does not include any design elements that would expose people or structures to significant risks, including downslope or downstream flooding or landslides, as a result of runoff, post -fire slope instability, or drainage changes. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
Mitigation Measure(s) incorporated into the project:
Implementation of the proposed project would not result in potentially significant impacts related to wildfire; therefore, mitigation is not necessary.

1. Does the project have the potential to substantially degrade the quality of the environment, substantially
reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal
community, substantially reduce the number or restrict
the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or
eliminate important examples of the major periods of
California history or prehistory?
X
2. Does the project have impacts that are individually
limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively
considerable" means that the incremental effects of a
project are considerable when viewed in connection
with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future
projects.)
X
3. Does the project have environmental effects which
will cause substantial adverse effects on human
beings, either directly or indirectly?
X
Discussion:
Proposed development of the land uses permitted under the proposed PF zoning designation within the project site have the potential to result in temporary impacts to air quality, cultural resources, hazards and hazardous materials, noise, and tribal cultural resources. However, mitigation measures have been identified to reduce potential impacts to a less -than -significant level, including but not limited to, fugitive dust controls, diesel -idling minimization, inadvertent discovery of archaeological and paleontological resources protocol, preparation of a Phase 1 ISA, and noise control measures. Implementation of Mitigation measure CR-1 would reduce potential impacts associated with elimination of important examples of major periods of California prehistory to less than significant.
When project impacts are considered along or in combination with other reasonably foreseeable impacts, the project's potential cumulative impacts may be significant. Mitigation measures have been incorporated into the project to reduce project -related impacts to a less -than -significant level. Based on implementation of identified project -specific mitigation measures and the relatively limited number and extent of potential impacts, the cumulative effects of the proposed project would not be cumulatively considerable and would be less than significant.
With incorporation of mitigation measures identified in this Initial Study, potential environmental effects of the project would not directly or indirectly result in any substantial adverse effects on human beings and this impact would be less than significant.

DETERMINATION
On the basis of the Initial Study, the staff of the Community Development Department:
Finds that the proposed project is a Class _ CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION and no further environmental review is required.
Finds that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
X Finds that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because revisions in the project have been made by or agreed to by the project proponent. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
Finds that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
Finds that the proposed project MAY have a "potentially significant impact" or "potentially significant unless mitigated" impact on the environment, but at least one effect 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to acceptable standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on the attached sheets. An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT (EIR)/SUBSEQUENT EIR/SUPPLEMENTAL EIR/ADDENDUM is required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed.
Finds that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, because all significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION pursuant to acceptable standards, and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project, nothing further is required.

Construction Site Well Review (CSWR) ID: 1012302
Assessor Parcel Number(s): 128076032
Property Owner(s): Ron Jacobs
Project Location Address: Newlove Dr. California 93454
Project Title: Cemetery District Expansion APN 128076032 Community #1 Well Public Resources Code (PRC) § 3208.1 establishes well reabandonment responsibility when a previously plugged and abandoned well will be impacted by planned property development or construction activities. Local permitting agencies, property owners, and/or developers should be aware of, and fully understand, that significant and potentially dangerous issues may be associated with development near oil, gas, and geothermal wells.
The California Geologic Energy Mangagement Division (CaIGEM) has received and reviewed the above referenced project dated 8/31/2021. To assist local permitting agencies, property owners, and developers in making wise land use decisions regarding potential development near oil, gas, or geothermal wells, the Division provides the following well evaluation.
The project is located in Santa Barbara County, within the boundaries of the following fields:
Santa Maria Valley
Our records indicate there are 1 known oil or gas wells located within the project boundary as identified in the application.
• Number of wells Not Abandoned to Current Division Requirements as Prescribed by Law and
DocuSign Envelope ID: B7F52F1 F-F45D-4F5E-8262-F66F48703B86A Projected to Be Built Over or Have Future Access Impeded by this project: 1 • Number of wells Not Abandoned to Current Division Requirements as Prescribed by Law and Not Projected to Be Built Over or Have Future Access Impeded by this project: 0 • Number of wells Abandoned to Current Division Requirements as Prescribed by Law and Projected to Be Built Over or Have Future Access Impeded by this project: 0 • Number of wells Abandoned to Current Division Requirements as Prescribed by Law and Not Projected to Be Built Over or Have Future Access Impeded by this project: 0 The Division categorically advices against building over, or in any way impeding access to, oil, gas, or geothermal wells. Impeding access to a well could result in the need to remove any structure or obstacle that prevents or impedes access including, but not limited to, buildings, housing, fencing, landscaping, trees, pools, patios, sidewalks, roadways, and decking. Maintaining sufficient access is considered the ability for a well servicing unit and associated necessary equipment to reach a well from a public street or access way, solely over the parcel on which the well is located. A well servicing unit, and any necessary equipment, should be able to pass unimpeded along and over the route, and should be able to access the well without disturbing the integrity of surrounding infrastructure.
There are no guarantees a well abandoned in compliance with current Division requirements as prescribed by law will not start leaking in the future. It always remains a possibility that any well may start to leak oil, gas, and/or water after abandonment, no matter how thoroughly the well was plugged and abandoned. The Division acknowledges wells plugged and abandoned to the most current Division requirements as prescribed by law have a lower probability of leaking in the future, however there is no guarantees that such abandonments will not leak.
The Division advises that all wells identified on the development parcel prior to, or during, development activities be tested for liquid and gas leakage. Surveyed locations should be provided to the Division in Latitude and Longitude, NAD 83 decimal format. The Division expects any wells found leaking to be reported to it immediately.
Failure to plug and reabandon the well may result in enforcement action, including an order to perform reabandonment well work, pursuant to PRC § 3208.1, and 3224.
PRC § 3208.1 give the Division the authority to order or permit the re -abandonment of any well where it has reason to question the integrity of the previous abandonment, or if the well is not accessible or visible. Responsibility for re -abandonment costs may be affected by the choices made by the local permitting agency, property owner, and/or developer in considering the general advice set forth in this
DocuSign Envelope ID: B7F52F1 F-F45D-4F5E-8262-F66F48703B86A letter. The PRC continues to define the person or entity responsible for reabandonment as:
1. The property owner - If the well was plugged and abandoned in conformance with Division requirements at the time of abandonment, and in its current condition does not pose an immediate danger to life, health, and property, but requires additional work solely because the owner of the property on which the well is located proposes construction on the property that would prevent or impede access to the well for purposes of remedying a currently perceived future problem, then the owner of the property on which the well is located shall obtain all rights necessary to reabandon the well and be responsible for the reabandonment.
2. The person or entity causing construction over or near the well - If the well was plugged and abandoned in conformance with Division requirements at the time of plugging and abandonment, and the property owner, developer, or local agency permitting the construction failed either to obtain an opinion from the supervisor or district deputy as to whether the previously abandoned well is required to be reabandoned, or to follow the advice of the supervisor or district deputy not to undertake the construction, then the person or entity causing the construction over or near the well shall obtain all rights necessary to reabandon the well and be responsible for thereabandonment.
3. The party or parties responsible for disturbing the integrity of the abandonment - If the well was plugged and abandoned in conformance with Division requirements at the time of plugging and abandonment, and after that time someone other than the operator or an affiliate of the operator disturbed the integrity of the abandonment in the course of developing the property, then the party or parties responsible for disturbing the integrity of the abandonment shall be responsible for the reabandonment.
No well work may be performed on any oil, gas, or geothermal well without written approval from the Division. Well work requiring approval includes, but is not limited to, mitigating leaking gas or other fluids from abandoned wells, modifications to well casings, and/or any other re -abandonment work. The Division also regulates the top of a plugged and abandoned well's minimum and maximum depth below final grade. CCR §1723.5 states well casings shall be cut off at least 5 feet but no more than 10 feet below grade. If any well needs to be lowered or raised (i.e. casing cut down or casing riser added) to meet this regulation, a permit from the Division is required before work can start.
The Division makes the following additional recommendations to the local permitting agency, property owner, and developer:
1. To ensure that present and future property owners are aware of (a) the existence of all wells located on the property, and (b) potentially significant issues associated with any improvements near oil or gas wells, the Division recommends that information regarding the above identified
DocuSign Envelope ID: B7F52F1 F-F45D-4F5E-8262-F66F48703B86A well(s), and any other pertinent information obtained after the issuance of this letter, be communicated to the appropriate county recorder for inclusion in the title information of the subject real property.
2. The Division recommends that any soil containing hydrocarbons be disposed of in accordance with local, state, and federal laws. Please notify the appropriate authorities if soil containing significant amounts of hydrocarbons is discovered during development.
As indicated in PRC § 3106, the Division has statutory authority over the drilling, operation, maintenance, and abandonment of oil, gas, and geothermal wells, and attendant facilities, to prevent, as far as possible, damage to life, health, property, and natural resources; damage to underground oil, gas, and geothermal deposits; and damage to underground and surface waters suitable for irrigation or domestic purposes. In addition to the Division's authority to order work on wells pursuant to PRC §§ 3208.1 and 3224, it has authority to issue civil and criminal penalties under PRC §§ 3236, 3236.5, and 3359 for violations within the Division's jurisdictional authority. The Division does not regulate grading, excavations, or other land use issues.
Aerial photography of the site from 1938 indicates two derricks, typically used for the drilling of oil wells, and a possible sump related to oilfield activities. One of the derricks appears to correspond to "Community" 1 (API 083-03018). The Division has no well records for the second derrick observed in the aerial photograph. The Division recommends that a diligent effort be made investigating the site to verify whether or not there is a second well on the parcel associated with the second derrick. If during investigation or development activities, any wells are encountered that were not part of this review, the property owner is expected to immediately notify the Division's construction site well review engineer in the Coastal district office, and file for Division review an amended site plan with well casing diagrams. The District office will send a follow-up well evaluation letter to the property owner and local permitting agency.

During construction, the applicant shall implement all of the applicable measures from the following list as
standard dust control measures to avoid impacts
associated with fugitive dust emissions:
a. Use water trucks or sprinkler systems to keep all
areas of vehicle movement damp enough to
prevent dust from leaving the site and from
exceeding the APCD's limit of 20% opacity for
greater than 3 minutes in any 60 -minute period.
At a minimum, this should include wetting down
such areas in the late morning and after work is
completed for the day. Increased watering
frequency should be required whenever the wind
speed exceeds 15 mph. Reclaimed water should
be used whenever possible. However, reclaimed
water should not be used in or around crops for
human consumption.
b. Minimize amount of disturbed area and reduce
on site vehicle speeds to 15 mph or less.
c. If importation, exportation and stockpiling of fill
material is involved, soil stockpiled for more than
two days shall be covered, kept moist, or treated
with soil binders to prevent dust generation.
Trucks transporting fill material to and from the
site shall be tarped from the point of origin.
d. Gravel pads shall be installed at all access
points to prevent tracking of mud onto public
roads.
e. After clearing, grading, earth moving or
excavation is completed, treat the disturbed area
by watering, or revegetating, or by spreading soil
binders until the area is paved or otherwise
developed so that dust generation will not occur.

CULTURAL RESOURCES
CR-1 Inadvertent Discovery of Archaeological
Resources. In the event that any cultural resource is
encountered during subsurface earthwork activities
associated with development of the project site, all
construction activities within a 100 -foot radius of the find shall cease and the City shall be notified immediately.
Work shall not continue until a qualified archaeologist, in conjunction with locally affiliated Native American
representative(s) as necessary, determines whether the
uncovered resource requires further study. Any previously unidentified resources found during construction shall be recorded on appropriate California Department of Parks
and Recreation (DPR) 523 Series forms and evaluated for significance in terms of CEQA criteria by a qualified
archaeologist. Potentially significant cultural resources consist of, but are not limited to, stone, bone, glass, ceramic, wood, or shell artifacts; fossils; or features including hearths, structural remains, or historic
dumpsites.
If the resource is determined significant under CEQA, the qualified archaeologist shall prepare and implement a

APPROVAL DATE October 17, 2023
PROJECT NAME Cemetery District Maintenance Building
APPLICANT/OWNER Santa Maria Cemetery District
ADDRESS/LOCATION 1600 Block of Newlove Drive
DESCRIPTION A Planned Development Permit (PD2022-0014) for the Santa Maria Cemetery District to construct a 2,550 -square -foot prefabricated maintenance equipment storage building with attached 544 -square - foot office on a 0.87 -acre site in a PF (Public Facilities) district.
FINDINGS
The City Council hereby approves the following project in accordance with the application submitted and hereby makes the required findings in accordance with Section 12-35.203 of the Municipal Code, including the following:
A. That the project meets the vision, intent, and requirements of the General Plan.
The new maintenance equipment storage building at the cemetery supports a necessary public service for the City of Santa Maria as it grows and develops, consistent with Land Use Element Goal L.U.2, to provide all necessary urban services and facilities for present and future City residents.
B. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and topography to accommodate said use, and all yards, spaces, walls and fences, parking, loading, and landscaping are adequate to properly adapt such use with the land and uses in the vicinity. The 0.87 -acre site is adequately sized to accommodate the 3,094 - square -foot prefabricated maintenance building and office which would be ancillary to the adjacent Santa Maria Cemetery District. The project's parking, loading, and landscaping is adequate to properly adapt the proposed uses with public facility uses to the east and will be compatible with the existing residential development in the vicinity.
C. That the site for the proposed use relates to streets and highways adequate in width and pavement type to carry the quantity and kind of traffic generated by the proposed use. The project site is landlocked but is accessed by a local residential
ATTACHMENT G
road, Newlove Drive, and two secondary arterial roads, College Drive and Battles Road. These roadways are adequately designed to accommodate the quantity and kind of traffic generated by the proposed project, which is limited to between 52 to 135 employee trips per day. The project is not anticipated to generate additional traffic.
D. That the proposed use will have no adverse effect upon abutting property because the project will not generate additional light, and any noise -creating work will be restricted to normal business hours. Bay doors are oriented away from the residences to the west, and while no new sources of noise are proposed, the project is subject to the City's Commercial performance standards related to noise, light and vibrations.
E. That the establishment, maintenance and/or conducting of the use for which the planned development review is sought will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, or welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such use and will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the public welfare, injurious to property or improvements in the neighborhood; nor shall the use be inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood or contrary to its orderly development. The proposed building and use therein is ancillary to the existing and expanding Santa Maria Cemetery District. The conditions of approval for the cemetery, as well as project specific conditions of approval for installation of landscaping, stormwater facilities, and other improvements ensure that the project will be compatible with the uses, character, and improvements in the neighborhood.
F. That the conditions stated in the decision are necessary to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare.
G. The proposed modification(s) are otherwise consistent with the General Plan, Municipal Code and applicable Specific Plans; no modifications are proposed.
H. The project includes superior design elements that mitigate or compensate for any potential impact of the proposed modification(s) on the surrounding area; no modifications are proposed.
The proposed modification(s) are essential to the design of the project; no modifications are proposed.
J. The proposed modification(s) have been minimized to the maximum extent possible consistent with Subsections (a) through (c) of Section 12-35.203 of the Municipal Code. No modifications are proposed.
K. Environmental Review for this project was completed through the preparation of an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (SCH # 2023040484) pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines. No further environmental review is required.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF SANTA MARIA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE GENERAL
PLAN LAND USE POLICY MAP FOR APPROXIMATELY 0.87
ACRES FROM MDR -12 (MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL) TO CF
(COMMUNITY FACILITIES) FOR THE SANTA MARIA CEMETERY
DISTRICT EXPANSION, LOCATED AT THE 600 BLOCK OF EAST
NEWLOVE DRIVE
WHEREAS, the applicant, the Santa Maria Cemetery District, initiated a General Plan Land Use amendment and zone change (GPZ2021-0003) to amend the General Plan Land Use Map and Zoning Map on 0.87 acres of property at the 600 Block of East Newlove Drive; and a Planned Development Permit (PD2022-0014), is on file to construct a 2,550 -square -foot prefabricated storage building with attached 544 -square foot office and break room, with a 15,900 -square -foot gravel base storage area and associated site improvements, herein referred to as the Project; and WHEREAS, on July 19, 2023, with a 3-0-2-0 vote, the Planning Commission recommended the City Council authorize the filing of a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Santa Maria Cemetery District Expansion Project, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 (CEQA), Public Resources Code Section 21000 et. seq., as amended; and
WHEREAS, on July 19, 2023, with a 3-0-2-0 vote, the Planning Commission made its recommendation in writing that the City Council amend the Official Zoning Map of the City of Santa Maria for the Project site (Resolution No. 2821); and WHEREAS, a duly noticed public hearing was held on this amendment to the General Plan Land Use Policy Map by the City Council on November 7, 2023; and WHEREAS, the City Council made no substantial modification of the proposed amendment to the General Plan Land Use Policy Map which had not been previously considered by the Planning Commission; and
WHEREAS, the City Council considered all written and oral testimony; and WHEREAS, the City Council considered and relied on the Planning Commission's recommendations to adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Project, in making its decision on the amendment to the Land Use Policy Map of the City's General Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Santa Maria, California, as follows:
///
///
1. The above recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein by reference.
2. The City Council finds that:
(a) The proposed project is consistent with applicable goals and policies of the adopted General Plan, including the Housing Element. The proposed project is not located on a housing site identified in the inventory of sites contained within the Housing Element. In addition, the remaining sites identified in the City's Housing element are adequate to accommodate the City's remaining unmet regional housing need allocation. Also, the proposed Cemetery District Expansion and maintenance building will benefit the City by allowing the Santa Maria Cemetery District to continue to provide burial services and plots which will serve new and existing development (OBJECTIVE L.U.2d); and (b) The proposed project would not significantly disrupt any of the various land uses in the vicinity because the Project will establish a public facility use compatible with the same public use and residential intensity and land use pattern in the area, which is consistent with POLICY L.U.6a, to resolve conflicts between existing and proposed land uses, particularly residential and industrial uses, and prevent such conflicts in the future; and
(c) The proposed project is afforded the appropriate services and facilities in that all infrastructure is currently available to serve the project site because the project vicinity has been previously developed with infrastructure to accommodate commercial, residential, and public facilities projects of a similar size. If deficiencies in services and facilities are identified during the review of future proposed Planned Developments, infrastructure improvements to accommodate the proposals shall be required. The Project will be consistent with POLICY L.U.2 and OBJECTIVE L.U.2a. which is intended to ensure that all urban services and infrastructure are planned and provided for in a timely manner and sufficient land is reserved, and that the Land Use Element is maintained so that the pattern of residential densities can be served by public facilities of the community. The project is a public facility regulated by the State of California and will be less intensive on facilities and services than a residential project in the MDR -12 (Medium Density Residential) land use would be.
3. The City Council of the City of Santa Maria approves an amendment to the General Plan Land Use Policy Map for 0.87 acres FROM MDR (Medium Density Residential) TO CF (Community Facilities) as shown on Attachment D of the Council Agenda Report dated November 7, 2023, incorporated herein by reference.
4. The Director of Community Development, or designee, is hereby authorized and directed to make corresponding changes to the Land Use Policy Map of the General Plan in conformity with this Resolution.
5. The Chief Deputy City Clerk is hereby authorized to make minor changes herein to address clerical errors, so long as substantial conformance of the intent of this document is maintained. In doing so, the Chief Deputy City Clerk shall consult with the City Manager and City Attorney concerning any changes deemed necessary.

WHEREAS, the City Council considered and relied on the Planning Commission's recommendations to adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Santa Maria Cemetery District Expansion project, in making its decision on the proposed project; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Santa Maria has reviewed the Cemetery District Planned Development Permit project in accordance with the application submitted and hereby makes the required findings in accordance with Section 12-35.203 of the Municipal Code, including the following:
A. That the project meets the vision, intent, and requirements of the General Plan.
The new maintenance equipment storage building at the cemetery supports a necessary public service for the City of Santa Maria as it grows and develops, consistent with Land Use Element Goal L.U.2, to provide all necessary urban services and facilities for present and future City residents.
B. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and topography to accommodate said use, and all yards, spaces, walls and fences, parking, loading, and landscaping are adequate to properly adapt such use with the land and uses in the vicinity. The 0.87 -acre site is adequately sized to accommodate the 3,094 - square -foot prefabricated maintenance building and office which would be ancillary to the adjacent Santa Maria Cemetery District. The project's parking, loading, and
landscaping is adequate to properly adapt the proposed uses with public facility uses to the east and will be compatible with the existing residential development in the vicinity.
C. That the site for the proposed use relates to streets and highways adequate in width and pavement type to carry the quantity and kind of traffic generated by the proposed use. The project site is landlocked but is accessed by a local residential road, Newlove Drive, and two secondary arterial roads, College Drive and Battles Road. These roadways are adequately designed to accommodate the quantity and kind of traffic generated by the proposed project, which is limited to between 52 to 135 employee trips per day. The project is not anticipated to generate additional traffic.
D. That the proposed use will have no adverse effect upon abutting property because the project will not generate additional light, and any noise -creating work will be restricted to normal business hours. Bay doors are oriented away from the residences to the west, and while no new sources of noise are proposed, the project is subject to the City's Commercial performance standards related to noise, light, and vibrations.
E. That the establishment, maintenance, and/or conducting of the use for which the planned development review is sought will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, or welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such use and will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the public welfare, injurious to property or improvements in the neighborhood; nor shall the use be inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood or contrary to its orderly development. The proposed building and use therein is ancillary to the existing and expanding Santa Maria Cemetery District. The conditions of approval for the cemetery, as well as project -specific conditions of approval for the installation of landscaping, stormwater facilities, and other improvements, ensure that the project will be compatible with the uses, character, and improvements in the neighborhood.
F. That the conditions stated in the decision are necessary to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare.
G. The proposed modification(s) are otherwise consistent with the General Plan, Municipal Code, and applicable Specific Plans; no modifications are proposed.
H. The project includes superior design elements that mitigate or compensate for any potential impact of the proposed modification(s) on the surrounding area; no modifications are proposed.
The proposed modification(s) are essential to the design of the project; no modifications are proposed.
J. The proposed modification(s) have been minimized to the maximum extent possible consistent with Subsections (a) through (c) of Section 12-35.203 of the Municipal Code. No modifications are proposed.
K. Environmental Review for this project was completed through the preparation of an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (SCH # 2023040484) pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines. No further environmental review is required.

FOR THE COUNCIL MEETING OF NOVEMBER 7, 2023
COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
TO: City Council
FROM: Interim City Manager Alex Posada
Prepared by: Director of Public Works Brett Fulgoni
SUBJECT: Solar Power Award of Contract
Description:
The City Council will consider approving agreements with ForeFront Power for the construction of Solar Photovoltaic Systems to eight City real property sites. The City of Santa Maria was able to secure ForeFront Power through School Project for Utility Rate Reduction, a joint power authority, which offers the Renewable Energy Aggregated Procurement Program, for which the City is an eligible entity.
Environmental Notice: Public Resources Code, section 21080.35 (added by Stats.2011, c. 469 (S.B.226), § 3), statutorily exempts from CEQA evaluation the installation of a solar energy system, including associated equipment, on the roof of an existing building or at an existing parking lot.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution entering into Power Purchase Agreements and related contract documents with ForeFront Power for facilities at the City's real property sites.
BACKGROUND:
The City owns, operates, and maintains municipal infrastructure, structures, and facilities throughout the City. The proposed Department of Public Works Solar Power Project encompasses the construction of Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Systems at the following locations: City Well Number 12, Waste Water Treatment Plant, Civic Center, Police Department, Transit Yard, Paul Nelson Aquatic Center, James Hagerman Sports Center, and Minami Park.
The proposed project will include a total capacity of 4,417 kW of solar generation across the eight project sites, resulting in a 54 percent total energy offset. This will provide an estimated $139,679 in first -year utility bill savings, and over $12 million over the life of the 20 -year agreement. Additionally, ForeFront Power typically hires 50 percent local contractors for their construction projects and has previously demonstrated this with many recent projects throughout the State. Finally, this agreement includes a commitment to hire at least 30 percent of all construction hours from targeted workers in disadvantaged communities within the City of Santa Maria.
The School Project for Utility Rate Reduction (SPURR), a joint powers authority, offers the Renewable Energy Aggregated Procurement (REAP) Program, an aggregated solar procurement program that leverages the collective purchasing power of SPURR's large membership to secure transparent, pre -negotiated solar project pricing and terms to be made available to SPURR members and other eligible entities. The City of Santa Maria, as an eligible entity, has the opportunity to piggyback on SPURR's competitively bid Request for Proposal (RFP) to procure solar energy. The City has worked with ForeFront Power, which was awarded the REAP Program's Master Contract, to propose Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) rates for the City facilities. Included in the PPA rate calculations are all costs to design, finance, construct, implement, operate, and maintain the Solar PV Systems at the City facilities. Since all costs are built into the PPA rates, there are no upfront costs to the City. The PPA includes a 0 percent escalator, so rates will remain the same for the entire 20 years of the agreement. The total savings to the City for the duration of the agreement is estimated at over $12 million. The proposal also includes system operations and maintenance for the life of the agreement to support an annual performance guarantee of 95 percent.
DISCUSSION:
The Department of Public Works has been exploring opportunities to offset energy costs through alternative energy sources and efficiencies. The department has researched and reviewed SPURR, a California -based joint powers authority of over 200 public agencies, which operates a variety of cooperative procurement programs that include electricity, renewable energy, and storage as well as energy demand response.
REAP Program and the RFP Process
On July 19, 2017, SPURR issued an RFP seeking responsive proposals for solar energy services. In addition to announcing the RFP online and in newspapers of general circulation, SPURR emailed the RFP to over 70 vendors and industry consultants statewide.
SPURR received eight responses to the RFP and evaluated all responses which complied with the terms of the RFP, using criteria set forth in the RFP. SPURR used best value criteria, including, but not limited to, quality of the submitted proposals, proposed pricing (the most heavily weighted criteria), services design and features, vendor's experience with similar projects, team member qualifications, capability to provide quality, ongoing service to a potentially large pool of REAP Program participants over several years, financial strength, and references.
SPURR awarded the bid to ForeFront Power, a wholly -owned subsidiary of Mitsui & Co.
The pricing and terms accepted by SPURR have been confirmed in the REAP Master Contract (RMC) dated October 26, 2017. An Amended and Restated RMC dated September 15, 2019, replaced the previous RMC, resulted in even lower available pricing for public agencies, and remains in effect.
The RMC is available for use as a cooperative procurement vehicle by public agencies that wish to streamline the procurement process, take advantage of excellent pricing 2 achieved through a highly competitive statewide solicitation, and enter into a fully vetted contract with favorable project terms and conditions that result in reduced project risk.
The REAP Program is a safe and proven procurement vehicle that has already been vetted and used by 38 public agencies across the State.
Utilizing the REAP Program will result in significant cost savings to the City over the life of the project and include favorable contract terms and conditions such as an annual performance guarantee, a fixed 20 -year PPA rate, lifetime system operations and maintenance, City ownership of all project environmental attributes, and no up -front costs to the City. We believe the pricing and terms secured through the REAP Program are the best available in the marketplace and will allow the City to save time and money by not having to duplicate efforts and benefit from a large-scale buying power.
As such, the Department concluded in concurrence with the Purchasing Guidelines set forth by the City that the REAP Program is an advantageous and viable procurement option for the proposed Solar Project.
The City did receive an additional proposal from ENGIE Services U.S. City staff carefully provided each vendor the same information and tours of City Facilities. Both SPURR/Forefront and ENGIE provided a proposal with the exact same project locations.
The aggregated PPA rate ENGIE provided in their proposal was $.1868/KWH, SPURR Forefront was $.1461 /KW H with a settled rate of $.1508/KWH.

PPA Rates
Included in the rate calculations are all costs to finance, design, construct, implement, operate, and maintain the Solar PV Systems. Since all costs are built into the PPA rates, there are no upfront costs to the City. Therefore, the City will be able to achieve savings in the first year of operation. The PPA includes a 0 percent escalator, so rates will remain the same for the entire 20 years of the agreement, while PG&E rates are most certainly expected to continue to rise.
Under the recommended ESA -Solar, ForeFront Power would provide electrical energy to City locations with the site specific PPA rates and energy offsets, which are shown below:

Performance Guarantee
As a result of a 95 percent performance guarantee, ForeFront Power will remain motivated to ensure the proper functioning of the system. To avoid owing the City a credit under this guarantee, they will test or arrange for meter inspection and testing bi-annually when performing system operations and maintenance.
Alternative(s)
City Council could decide to not enter into Power Purchase Agreements and related contract documents with ForeFront Power for facilities at the City's real property sites and issue a Request for Proposal independently.
Fiscal Considerations
All impacts and cost savings will be realized by the General Fund. This project will result in energy cost savings at the eight City facilities, with a year -one savings anticipated to be $76,696, and a total 20 -year savings estimated to be approximately $12,614,106.
There are no up -front costs to be paid; all design, construction, and operational costs are incorporated into the negotiated PPA rates. Each project is separately approved and budgeted by the City Council. The City is under no obligation to expend any funds under the Power Purchase Agreements.
Additionally, this agreement takes advantage of the Net Energy Metering (NEM) 2.0 versus NEM 3.0 pricing. Offering a substantial 20 -year pricing advantage versus NEM
3.0. The City, after preliminary selecting a vendor, submitted applications for these projects securing our NEM 2.0 status. Should we forfeit these projects, we will lose the NEM 2.0 status. NEM 2.0 allows the City to receive credits for power at a near -retail price.
NEM 3.0 pricing is a 10 -year status and near wholesale pricing.
Impact to the Community
City residents and community members will benefit from clean energy provided by solar power.
Other Agency Review
