However, over the years persistent homeless encampments have considerably grown and become more permanent. City of Seaside staff are now checking encampments one to two times per week.
Shelters, however, have tunneled deeper into the thickets to avoid easy observation. The increasing population has alarmed neighbors and created water quality and safety hazards for park visitors.

FUTURE PLANNING 03
Several projects are being planned and designed in and around Laguna Grande Regional Park. Many of these projects revolve around improving trails and multi-use corridors within and around the park which will improve regional trail connectivity and create safe connections along busy street corridors.
In addition to improving trails and multi-use corridors, an update to the Laguna Grande Regional Park Master Plan, dated 1978, is forthcoming. Two significant projects which will affect the park are the North Fremont Street Sidewalk Gap Closure Project and the Fort Ord Trail and Greenway (FORTAG) Canyon Del Rey/SR 218 Segment Project
North Fremont Street Sidewalk Gap Closure Project: In the summer of 2021 the City of Monterey introduced an improvement project which will construct a multi-use ADA accessible bicycle and pedestrian path along North Fremont Street between Casanova Avenue and Canyon Dey Rey Blvd. The project includes a bridge that will link the existing sidewalk and Class IV bicycle lane to the future Fort Ord Trail and Greenway (FORTAG) project. Currently the gap closure project is going through the required environmental review process and the City of Monterey is looking to secure grant funding to complete construction. This planned improvement will greatly benefit the Park. Residents will be able to utilize Fremont Street by either walking or biking and connect directly into the park at the corner of Fremont Street and Canyon Del Rey Boulevard. This project will then link to the FORTAG Project which is planned to traverse through LGRP.
Fort Ord Trail and Greenway (FORTAG) Canyon Del Rey/SR 218 Segment Project: The FORTAG Canyon Del Rey/SR 218 Segment Project is a part of a much larger trail system that will connect the Monterey Bay Sanctuary Scenic Trail, the trails of the Fort Ord National Monument and the Coastal Rec Trail into a continuous system. Spearheaded by a group of private citizens, FORTAG has many stakeholders including the Transportation Agency for Monterey County (TAMC). Part of the FORTAG Packet Page 348
14 | LAGUNA GRANDE TRAIL AND VEGETATION MAINTENANCE STRATEGY Canyon Del Rey/SR 218 Segment is planned to travel through LGRP, utilizing the existing trail system. At the north end of the end park the trail users will be provided a safe crossing at Del Monte Boulevard connecting LGRP to Roberts Lake and at the south end of the park the trail will provide much needed accessibility improvements taking trail users up to the corner of Fremont Street and Canyon Del Rey Boulevard. The anticipated trail improvements, because of the FORTAG project, will greatly benefit the park through the widening of existing trails and paving improvements improving accessibility. In March 2020, TAMC certified the FORTAG Final Environmental Impact Report and in October of 2020 Phase 1 of the Canyon Del Rey/SR 218 Segment Project was funded for engineering design and community outreach. Phase 1 of this segment covers Fremont Street to Carlton Drive.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH 04
In order to provide equitable engagement to the community within the planning process, the project team set up a website, haveyoursaymonterey.org, to allow community members of varying backgrounds and ages equal opportunity to comment and engage with the plans. Community meetings, public comments, plan drafts and design team meeting minutes were all made available throughout the planning process.
The opportunity for stakeholder and community engagement included a virtual townhall held on July 28, 2021 and a community site walk held on August 14, 2021. The virtual townhall, with 40 people in attendance, provided the community with an introduction to the planning process and key objectives. Community members were invited to provide comments. Key priorities heard from the community included:
• Improve park safety
• Address and fix accessibility issues
• Maintain and improve planting
• Disclose all funding sources for improvements
• Engage neighboring businesses adjacent to the Park
After the townhall, the community was invited to participate in a site walk around the Park. The project team engaged with community members and were able to address specific concerns throughout the park. There was a total of 32 people in attendance. Key takeaways from the site walk include:
• Unauthorized encampments are a personal safety, water quality, and fire danger security issue • Design focus should be on accessibility improvements and vegetation maintenance • Desire for clear sight lines along trails
• Protect and extend habitat areas and resources
• Aesthetic upgrades are not a priority – the park is generally well maintained • Community should continue to be involved in the decision-making process • Funding sources
OUTREACH SUMMARY
The virtual town hall was recorded and made public on haveyoursaymonterey.org. A video of the site walk was created and also posted to the project website. Fliers and meeting minutes and materials for community engagement events can be seen in Appendix D. Opportunities for public comment and input will continue throughout the planning process.

GOALS 05
The purpose of the Trail and Vegetation Maintenance Strategy (Strategy) is to provide the Joint Powers Authority (JPA) a clear set of priorities and means for maintaining the trails and vegetation throughout the Park. The proposed Plan will implement maintenance strategies to create a more accessible, safe, and long-lasting park for the surrounding community and region. Laguna Grande Regional Park is a unique landscape within the cities of Monterey and Seaside, providing visitors access to rarely seen aquatic and migratory birds, riparian vegetation, and fresh water lakes. Increased maintenance will require an intentional and thoughtful approach. The proposed Strategy provides direction to meet the regulations for maintenance of sensitive habitats and around bodies of water set forth by the State and Federal government agencies.
1. ADDRESS ENCAMPMENT, HEALTH AND SAFETY CONCERNS
• Provide seasonal trails through south riparian woods for consistent monitoring • Access and Monitoring: clear non-native vegetation and overgrown brush to discourage illegal camping and provide maintenance for emergency services foot access Black Crowned Night Heron (Nycticorax nycticorax)

Packet Page 356
22 | LAGUNA GRANDE TRAIL AND VEGETATION MAINTENANCE STRATEGY
2. IMPROVE PERSONAL SAFETY
• Access and Monitoring: clear vegetation and overgrown brush to increase public visibility and surveillance and discourage illegal camping; provide on-going maintenance for access and clean up.
• Sightline Visibility: create clear sight lines at curves and corners by limbing trees and clearing understory
• Accessibility Improvements: trail maintenance and repair • Repair existing lighting and extend new lighting where park trail has no ambient street light
3. MAINTAIN AND IMPROVE QUALITY OF NATURAL RESOURCES
• Preserve and protect existing habitat
• Remove invasive vegetation where practical
• Mitigate habitat disturbance from vegetation removal as deemed appropriate at a 3:1 replacement ratio

OVERALL PLAN 06
TRAIL AND VEGETATION MAINTENANCE STRATEGY
The north side of the Park has a looped trail around the lake with direct neighborhood access and parking for visitors. This segment of the Park is well visited. The south end, extending back to Fremont Boulevard, does not have a looped path or easy neighborhood access. As a result, the dense vegetation has attracted homeless encampments. Warming fires are a concern to neighbors.
Park visitors feel threatened by itinerant groups and observed drug exchanges.
Overall, residents feel the looped trail and active park areas are generally well maintained. Seaside and Monterey have been attentive to community needs in the primary recreation spaces. The JPA focus should begin with the southern half of the park.
As described in other sections of this report, any disturbance of identified habitat areas will be mitigated by habitat enhancement elsewhere in the park. Annually, a description and map of probable disturbance and enhancement will be submitted to the JPA for approval.
In order to meet the Goals and priorities above, the following maintenance strategies are recommended for Laguna Grande Regional Park.
1. SEASONAL TRAIL DEVELOPMENT
• Provide 8’ wide seasonal mulch trails through southern riparian woodland with seasonal foot bridges for creek crossing
• Mitigate habitat removal with invasive removal and restoration planting
2. VEGETATION CLEARING
• Clearing and limbing around trail curves and corners
• Clearing at docks
• Clearing and limbing around illegal camp sites to improve access for monitoring and cleaning • Mitigate habitat removal with invasive removal and restoration planting
3. TRAIL MAINTENANCE AND IMPROVEMENTS
• Replace sections of trail impacted by root damage
• Repair edges of trail impacted by erosion – install header or curb to maintain trail edge along the lakeside.
• Add mulch seasonally to portions of seasonal trail that are degraded • Repair or replace culverts under trail
Packet Page 358
24 | LAGUNA GRANDE TRAIL AND VEGETATION MAINTENANCE STRATEGY • Provide formal trail connection to Fremont St
• Provide formal trail connection along Virgin St
4. ACCESSIBILITY IMPROVEMENTS
• Restore accessibility to north bridge - make compliant with local building codes • Repair areas with trip hazards
• Install accessible paths to docks - make compliant with local building codes • Provide accessible ingress/egress to Laguna Grande from Fremont St.
5. INVASIVE SPECIES REMOVAL AND RESTORATION PLANTING
• Priority 1 (1-3 years)
• Priority 2 (1-5 years)
• Priority 3 (6-10 years)
• Priorities 4-5
• Priority 6 (no action)
• Restore native plantings where invasives are fully removed • Create new native habitat along southern gravel trail
6. LIGHTING
• Repair or replace existing lighting
• Extend new lighting along the southern gravel trail

Phase One Implementation | 29
PHASE ONE IMPLEMENTATION 07
Implementation of the recommended maintenance and improvements will require time and approval from the governing agencies. The design team is recommending a phased approach to Strategy implementation in order to alleviate costs and to obtain permit approvals. With safety as the top priority, phase one will address these issues first. Many of the safety issues directly correlate with overgrown vegetation. Vegetation clearing and removal will require permits, but can easily be incorporated into weekly maintenance routines. Other safety items to be addressed include repairing trails heavily impacted by root damage and erosion and clearing defensible space for fire safety.
1. SEASONAL TRAIL DEVELOPMENT
• Provide 8’ wide seasonal mulch trail through southern riparian woodland with seasonal foot bridges for creek crossing. Connect from the gravel trail to English and Sequoia • Mitigate habitat removal with invasive removal and restoration planting • Invasive Species Removal and Restoration Planting:
• Priority 1 (1-3 years):
– Clear invasives where vegetation clearing for safety and defensible space will already be happening.
– Clear invasive species where necessary to mitigate habitat removal • Restore native plantings where invasive species have been fully removed
2. VEGETATION CLEARING
• Clearing and limbing around trail curves and corners particularly in the northwest riparian woodland
• Clearing at docks
• Clearing and limbing around illegal camp sites
• Mitigate habitat removal with invasive removal and restoration planting
3. TRAIL MAINTENANCE AND IMPROVEMENTS
• Replace sections of trail impacted by root damage – trail section along Canyon Del Rey in Seaside traditional park and trail section along soccer field in Monterey traditional park
4. ACCESSIBILITY IMPROVEMENTS
• Restore accessibility compliance to north bridge

To: Elizabeth Matz, BFS Landscape Architects
From: Patrick Furtado
Date: July 2, 2021
Re: Laguna Grande Regional Park Vegetation Mapping and Focused Plant Survey Results
Vegetation Mapping
EMC Planning Group associate biologist Patrick Furtado, M.S. conducted geographic information system (GIS) mapping of Laguna Grande Regional Park on May 18, 2021. Plant communities and several other features including invasive plants, trails, and homeless camps were mapped using Environmental Systems Research Institute’s (ESRI) Field Maps mobile mapping application and a Trimble R1 sub-meter Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver.
Plant communities were classified and mapped generally according to the alliance level of the Manual of California Vegetation (Sawyer et al. 2009). Figure 1, Vegetation Map – North, and Figure 2, Vegetation Map – South, are attached to this memorandum. Electronic GIS data can be provided upon request.
Focused Plant Survey
EMC Planning Group associate biologist Patrick Furtado completed focused plant surveys for special-status plant species on May 24, 2021 and June 15, 2021 in accordance with current California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW 2009) and California Native Plant Society (CNPS 2001) rare plant survey protocols. According to the United States Drought Monitor, the project site is located in an area experiencing extreme drought conditions at the time of surveys (National Drought Mitigation Center 2021).
Packet Page 375
Ms. Matz
BFS Landscape Architects
July 2, 2021, Page 2
MEMORANDUM
Mr. Furtado also visited nearby special-status plant reference populations for seaside bird’s beak (Cordylanthus rigidus ssp. littoralis), Monterey spineflower (Chorizanthe pungens var. pungens), Monterey gilia (Gilia tenuiflora ssp. arenaria), Yadon’s rein orchid (Piperia yadonii), and sand-loving wallflower (Erysimum ammophilum) to determine that these plant species were identifiable at the time of the surveys. All of these species except for Yadon’s rein orchid were identifiable. Yadon’s rein orchid may not be germinating or flowering in normal numbers this season due to the current extreme drought conditions (NDMC 2021). However, habitat for Yadon’s rein orchid was not found on the Laguna Grande Park project site.
All suitable habitats for special-status plant species within the Laguna Grande Park survey area were systematically surveyed and plant species observed were recorded in field notes. Plant species were identified in the field or collected for subsequent identification using plant keys contained in The Jepson Manual: Vascular Plants of California (Baldwin et. al 2012). Taxonomy follows the Jepson Flora Project (2021) for scientific and common names.
Special-status species are those listed as Endangered, Threatened, or Rare, or as Candidates for listing by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) or CDFW under the state and/or federal Endangered Species Acts. The special-status designation also includes CDFW Species of Special Concern and Fully Protected species, California Native Plant Society (CNPS) Rare Plant Rank 1B and 2B species, and other locally rare species that meet the criteria for listing as described in Section 15380 of CEQA Guidelines. Special-status species are generally rare, restricted in distribution, declining throughout their range, or have a critical, vulnerable stage in their life cycle that warrants monitoring.
A total of 112 plant taxa were identified within the park boundaries, including 47 native California taxa (42 percent) and 65 non-native taxa (58 percent). No special-status plant species were observed within the Laguna Grande Regional Park survey area. Appendix A, Plant Species Observed, presents the list of all plant species that were observed at the park during the focused plant surveys.

GUIDELINES FOR INVASIVE, NON-NATIVE PLANT REMOVAL/CONTROL
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Non-native plant species are species not present in California and/or the Monterey Bay prior to Russian, Spanish and/or European colonization. The Spanish discovery of Monterey Bay occurred in the early 1600’s, yet it wasn’t until 1770 that the first non-Native American settlement was established (Gordon, 1996). Available evidence indicates that the vast majority of non-native plants now established in California were introduced after this time (Cal-IPC, 2021). Settlers brought non-native plants accidentally in ship ballast and as contaminants of grain shipments, in livestock and livestock feed, as well as intentionally for food, fiber, medicine, and ornamental uses. Most non-native plants introduced to California in these early times first established at coastal sites near ports and around missions and other settlements. This is likely true for the Monterey Bay region. The majority of the first nonnative plants to establish were of European origin; however, later-arriving species have origins in central and south America, and more recently from Asia and Australia. Many of the arriving nonnative plant species found favorable growing conditions in coastal California and became successful in competing with native plant species for growing space, soil nutrients, and soil moisture. Of the estimated 1,800 non-native plant species established in California, only approximately 200 (11%) are recognized as serious threats to native ecosystems; yet these species have dramatically changed California’s ecological landscape (Cal-IPC, 2021). Species that exhibit aggressive growth patterns that lead to a reduction in native plant diversity and cover are considered to be invasive, non-native plant species.
An aggressive growth pattern of an invasive, non-native plant species can result in a corresponding reduction in the diversity and health of native flora and fauna. A decrease in native plant and animal diversity can lead to a weakening of native ecosystems, making the ecosystem more vulnerable to permanent damage due to stochastic events (i.e., unpredictable events that can affect population and community dynamics, such as disease infestation, wildfire, or unintentional human damage). In addition, as native insects and wildlife rely on native plants for shelter, food and reproduction, the spread of non-utilized non-native plant species can result in the disappearance or reduced numbers and vigor of native species. A study on the ecosystems of California found the impacts of invasive species on native species include genetic impacts (i.e., hybridizing with native species), local or species-level extinctions through disease and displacement, changes in community composition and native species diversity, and altered ecosystem processes such as nutrient cycling and disturbance regimes (Mooney and Zavaleta 2016). Additionally, some invasive non-native plants are toxic to wildlife and insects. Toxic plant materials weaken or kill aquatic life. Finally, the loss of the complex plant cover and plant root systems lead to decreases in soil moisture, increases in soil temperature and changes in soil chemical composition. Soil and moisture changes can lead to increases in erosion potential and decreases in water quality.

Laguna Grande Regional Park
Guidelines for Invasive, Non-native Plant Species 2 September 2021 Numerous non-native plant species have been recorded in Laguna Grande Regional Park. Some of these are invasive with infestations having negative effects on the park’s upland and wetland ecosystems. A level of environmental damage has occurred within the Park from infestations of these invasive, non-native plant species. Measures to reduce damage from invasive, non-native plant species, to benefit the Park’s native ecosystems, are identified in this chapter.
2.0 METHODOLOGY
The extent of invasive, non-native plant species within Laguna Grande Regional Park was assessed through literature review, review of the Vegetation Mapping and Focused Plant Survey Results (EMC Planning Group, 2021), and field observations by Kathleen Lyons (plant ecologist) and George McMenamin (restoration specialist). Field surveys were conducted on July 30, August 10 and September 7, 2021 to field-check previously mapped data, identify additional locations of invasive, non-native plant species, evaluate the level of threat an infestation poses to native resources, and evaluate measures for removal and control of infestations. The distribution of the invasive, non-native plant species was depicted onto a base map and EMC Planning Group entered data entered into a Geographic Information System (GIS).
3.0 INVASIVE, NON-NATIVE PLANT SPECIES
Over twenty-five invasive, non-native plant species were identified to be of management concern within Laguna Grande Regional Park. Most of these species are listed by the California Invasive Plant Council (Cal-IPC), as invasive species. Two species are listed as noxious weeds by the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA). Table 1 lists these species and their CalIPC invasive rating. Figures 1 and 2 show the distribution of each species within the regional park.
Plant species have varying patterns for growth and reproduction. These patterns are considered in evaluating their ability to invade native ecosystems as well as control measures. Plants that are annual/biennial species, such as a thistle, typically grows quickly and produce large amounts of seed that is often easily dispersed by wind or by animals. Seeds from annual species typically have relatively short lifespans (1-5 years). Some perennial plants, such as French broom, reproduce by seed; however, the seed can persist in the soil for long periods of time (30+ years).
Some perennial plants, such as Cape ivy, can reproduce from stem fragments. The growth habitat and primary reproductive method of the invasive, non-native plant species is presented in Table 1.

These categories are high, moderate, or limited. Two additional categories are “Alert” and “Watch.” An Alert is listed on species with High or Moderate impacts that have limited distribution in California, but may have the potential to spread much further. Species on the “watch” list have been assessed as posing a high risk of becoming invasive in the future in California.

Guidelines for Invasive, Non-native Plant Species 6 September 2021 Table 2. Cal-IPC Ratings of Invasive Weeds
Ranking Meaning of Ranking
High These species have severe ecological impacts on physical processes, plant and animal communities, and vegetation structure. Their reproductive biology and other attributes are conducive to moderate to high rates of dispersal and establishment. Most are widely distributed ecologically.
Moderate These species have substantial and apparent—but generally not severe—ecological impacts on physical processes, plant and animal communities, and vegetation structure. Their reproductive biology and other attributes are conducive to moderate to high rates of dispersal, though establishment is generally dependent upon ecological disturbance. Ecological amplitude and distribution may range from limited to widespread.
Limited These species are invasive but their ecological impacts are minor on a statewide level or there was not enough information to justify a higher score. Their reproductive biology and other attributes result in low to moderate rates of invasiveness. Ecological amplitude and distribution are generally limited, but these species may be locally persistent and problematic.

The plant species descriptions provided in the following sections are based on general plant life cycles and growth patterns in the central coast region. The information provided should be used as a general guideline and does not replace yearly monitoring. Some biennials may become annuals or short-lived perennials based on extreme conditions, such as drought or years of high rainfall. Additionally, the timing of plant growth and flowering may change under extreme parameters.
3.1 Trees
Most non-native tree species have several common invasive characteristics. Most outcompete many native plant species by blocking sunlight, having rapid growth, and dominating soil moisture and nutrient resources.
Silver wattle (Acacia dealbata), Sydney golden wattle (Acacia longifolia) and blackwood wattle (Acacia melanoxylon) are all non-native trees or shrubs. All three species are native to Australia, fast growing, fix nitrogen, and can re-sprout from cut stumps. They all produce prodigious amounts of seed and likely have leaves with allelopathic properties. The silver wattle usually reaches a height of 40-50 feet and can reproduce from both rhizomes and seed. Sydney golden wattle is usually a small tree or shrub that grows to a height of 20 to 25 feet and may form dense thickets. The blackwood wattle usually reaches heights of 40-50 feet. The blackwood wattle also develops root suckers and can form clonal populations. Both the silver and blackwood wattle may grow taller under some circumstances. All of these species are highly invasive due to their rapid growth, the allelopathic leave litter, their large, seed banks and their ability to spread by rhizome or roots. Once established, they outcompete the native plant species and alter the soil chemistry by fixing nitrogen. Additionally, they can create a significant fire hazard.
Blue gum eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus) is a large non-native tree that can grow rapidly to heights of 200 feet or more. It is native to Australia. Blue gum trees have an extensive lateral root system and can re-sprout from cut stumps and roots. Blue gum trees shed bark, leaves and drop branches continuously. This species can flower from late fall through the following spring, with seed capsules forming 10 months to a year later. The blue gum eucalyptus reproduces from seed.
The species is a highly invasive tree due to its rapid growth, existing seed bank, ability to rePacket Page 394 Laguna Grande Regional Park
Guidelines for Invasive, Non-native Plant Species 7 September 2021 sprout, and the allelopathic properties of the thick layer of leaf and bark litter. Additionally, the leaf litter, bark litter and large number of down branches create a significant fire hazard.
White ash (Fraxinus americana) is a non-native, evergreen to semi-deciduous tree native to southeastern Canada and midwestern United States. They can reach heights of 60 feet. Ash trees have large roots and may have adventitious roots. The trees flower in the spring with windborne pollination and they produce large quantities of viable seed. Ash trees are toxic to ruminant animals and may cause dermatitis to humans. The non-native ash species should be considered moderately invasive in riparian corridors or moist soils due to their rapid growth, potential for root sprouts and large quantities of seed.
Chinese elm (Ulmus parvifolia) is a non-native, semi-deciduous tree that can reach heights of 50 feet. It is native to Asia and prefers full to moderate sun. The Chinese elm sheds bark and has large roots. It flowers in late summer and produces viable seed. The seed can be carried by the wind for long distances. Chinese elms are low to moderately invasive in central coastal California, at this time, However, it is highly invasive in North Carolina and has potential to become more invasive along the central coast, due to its windborne seed and tolerance for many environmental conditions.
Cherry plum (Prunus cerasifera) is a non-native, often shrubby, deciduous tree that is native to Europe. Cherry plum trees can re-sprout from cut stumps and roots. This tree flowers in the spring and the plum-like fruit is often transported and spread into new areas, by animals and humans. Although this tree rarely forms groves or dominates habitat, it should be considered moderately invasive in some habitats where there is disturbance, or reduced competition and adequate resources for seedlings to become established.
Ngaio tree (myoporum) (Myoporum laetum) is a non-native, evergreen tree or shrub that can reach a height of 30 feet. It is native to New Zealand. Ngaio trees have a deep taproot and are drought tolerant when mature. Plants may re-sprout when the stems are cut. Ngaio trees flowers in the spring and summer and produces fruit containing 2-6 seeds. They produce large quantities of fruit which is often transported by birds. If the fruit stays intact, the seeds can survive for several years. This plant has regional toxicity if eaten, particularly the leaves. The Ngaio tree is moderately invasive in disturbed areas with sufficient soil moisture. This species can form monocultured stands due to the leaf litter and high seed production.
3.2 Shrubs and Woody Vines
French broom (Genista monspessulana) is a non-native, leguminous, perennial shrub with an average life span of 12-15 years. It is native to the Mediterranean region of Europe. French broom is evergreen and may reach a height of 10+ feet. French broom usually flowers in spring and early summer. A mature plant can produce thousands of seed pods per year. Each pod contains 5- 8 seeds. The seed pods are dehiscent, bursting open in the summer, expelling seeds for a distance of up to 6 feet. French broom seed remains viable in and on the soil for decades. French broom seeds and flowers are toxic to humans and many domestic and native wildlife species. French broom is a highly invasive shrub that spreads rapidly. The prodigious quantities and long-term Packet Page 395
Laguna Grande Regional Park
Guidelines for Invasive, Non-native Plant Species 8 September 2021 viability of the seeds often result in a rapid expansion of the infestation. In addition, French broom will re-sprout from cut stumps unless it is cut below the root crown. Over a period of 3-6 years French broom can create a dense, monocultured stand.
Himalayan blackberry (Rubus armeniacus) and elm-leaf (thornless) blackberry (Rubus ulmifolius) are long-lived, non-native shrubs/woody vines that develop a perennial root system.
These species grow in numerous forms and create dense thickets. Both species can assume a vine form and climb 20-30 feet into trees. Himalayan blackberry is native to Eurasia; elm-leaf (thornless) blackberry is native to Europe. Both species flower in the spring and usually produces fruit in the summer. Both of these blackberry species are highly invasive and spread quickly.
They produce large quantities of berries and the seeds are often spread by birds and other animals that eat the fruit. Both blackberries develop extensive root systems and can spread vegetatively (re-sprout) from root fragments and re-rooting from cane tips.
Glossy privet (Ligustrum lucidum) is a non-native, evergreen tree or shrub that is native to Asia.
This tree can reach heights of 40 feet and often has multiple stems. Glossy privet can re-sprout from cut stumps or roots. Glossy privet flowers in the late spring to summer. This species produces large quantities of berries that are mostly dispersed by birds. Glossy privet reproduces by both seed and roots. They may be invasive in woodlands or forest habitats where root sprouts and seed can form dense stands over time.
Pride of Madeira (Echium candicans) is a large, long lived, perennial shrub that is native to the island of Madeira, north of the Canary Islands. Pride of Madeira has numerous branches, woody roots and can reach heights of 8 feet. Pride of Madeira is a common landscape ornamental that has escaped cultivation in coastal regions. This species requires full sun and may bloom from April thru July, producing large quantities of viable seed. All parts of the plant are considered poisonous to ingest and can skin contact can cause dermatitis. Due to its long-life span and large quantities of seed, Pride of Madeira is moderately invasive along the central coast.
3.3 Non-woody Vines, Grasses and Groundcovers
Aloe (Aloe arborescens) is an evergreen, perennial succulent, native to southern Africa. Often called torch aloe, it is a large, densely growing succulent shrub that can reach 9 feet in height and spread. The stems support numerous narrow, recurved, soft-toothed margined leaves that are dull green, yellow-green to sometimes blue-green depending on the location and amount of sunlight received. Coral-red flowers bloom in late fall and early winter. Aloe spreads vegetatively, from a branch or stem and can also reproduce by seed. Due to Aloe’s ability to spread both vegetatively and by seed, this species is considered somewhat invasive.
Giant reed (Arundo donax) is a non-native, long-lived, perennial grass that can grow to heights of 10+ feet. It is native to the Mediterranean area and tropical Asia. Giant reed has an extremely thick, aggressive, rhizomatous root system that can survive periodic flooding. Although it can flower year-round in some areas, seedlings are not encountered in California. It reproduces almost exclusively from rhizomes and root fragments which are often spread during flooding or high-water levels. In addition, Giant reed is highly flammable and can increase the risk of fire.

Laguna Grande Regional Park
Guidelines for Invasive, Non-native Plant Species 9 September 2021 Giant reed is invasive, particularly in riparian corridors where it forms dense, impenetrable stands completely eliminating native plant species and greatly reducing habitat values.
Short-stalked false bindweed (Calystegia sylvatica) is a non-native, aggressive, perennial vine with an extensive root system. It is native to Europe. The vines are extremely aggressive climbers and grow rapidly. They can grow high into trees and can smother small trees and shrubs. The vines die back each year to the roots. Each flower produces a capsule with 2-4 seeds. Shortstalked false bindweed spreads both vegetatively and by seed. Once established, this bindweed can be difficult to eradicate due to the extensive root system and seed bank.
Bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare) is usually a biennial, from Eurasia and Italian thistle (Carduus pycnocephalus) is usually an annual, both native to the Mediterranean area. Bull thistle mostly flowers in late spring through the summer of the second year, with seed viability ranging from 3 to 5 years. Italian thistle usually flowers from mid-April through May and seed viability ranges from 4-8 years. Italian thistle produces 2 types of seed; one seed type usually falls near the plant and the other seed type is carried by the wind. Both species of thistle may continue to produce flowers until soil moisture becomes too low. Both of these thistles reproduce only by seed. Bull thistle represents a greatest threat in areas with soil moisture continuing later into the summer and the plant can re-sprout from cut roots, if conditions are right. Bull thistle may continue to produce some flower heads well into the fall under good conditions. Italian thistle prefers ground with reduced late spring moisture.
Ice plant (Carpobrotus edulis/Carpobrotus chilensis - may include hybrids) is a non-native, ground creeping, succulent, perennial shrub. It is native to South Africa. Trailing stems can reach lengths of 10+ feet and root at the nodes. Ice plant can form large, extremely dense mats of clonal plants. It is drought tolerant and often grows year around. On the central coast, ice plant flowers for most of the year and may flower year around. It produces numerous seeds with seed viability of 2 years. However, it is thought that ice plant mainly produces seedings only in disturbed soils, due to herbivory. Once introduced into an area, ice plant can be highly invasive, in full sun.
Additionally, it creates high levels of organic matter that can lead to invasions by additional nonnative plant species. In this area, ice plant appears to spread mainly by root or plant fragments.
Poison hemlock (Conium maculatum) is a non-native, biennial, invasive plant that can grow to 10+ feet in height. It is native to Europe. It does not require much light and can grow in almost full shade. Poison hemlock can grow in most habitats as long as there is sufficient soil moisture.
A large plant can produce up to several thousand flowers and seeds. Poison hemlock usually flowers April through July, but can continue to flower through the summer. Damaged stems may flower into the following spring. Seed viability is thought to be 3-4 years. Poison hemlock is extremely toxic to human and animals when eaten. It can cause contact dermatitis in some humans. It is not uncommon for animals to ingest Poison hemlock in early spring or when desirable vegetation becomes scarce, in the late summer and fall. Poison hemlock is highly invasive, particularly in areas with some sunlight, and good soil moisture, although it can be invasive in most types of habitats. It does not spread vegetatively, but can re-sprout multiple times from its large taproot if the stem is cut or broken.

Guidelines for Invasive, Non-native Plant Species 10 September 2021 Pampas grass and Jubata grass (Cortederia selloana and C. jubata) are both non-native, perennial, densely tufted, grasses with long basal leaves and feathery inflorescence plumes. Both species are native to the Andes Mountains and several other sections of South America. The basal leaves and floral plumes can reach heights of 8-10 feet. The rhizomes and roots form a dense clump. Old pampas grass plants can have roots 10 feet deep and rhizomes 20 feet wide. Jubata grass tussocks are usually smaller than those of pampas grass. Although both species can produce large quantities of seed, pampas grass requires both male and female plants, in range, to create seed. All jubata grasses are female and produce viable seed. Each seed plume can have up to 100,000 seeds that are viable soon after emerging from the grass sheath. However, seed viability is less than 1 year and so a persisting seedbank does not occur. Pampas grass seedlings can survive a greater number of environmental conditions than jubata grass. In areas with disturbed soil, bare ground or low levels of competition from grasses or sedges, these two species can be highly invasive and greatly limit the establishment of native plant species.
Cape ivy (Delairea odorata) is a non-native, perennial vine that is usually evergreen, but can become deciduous under drought or extreme heat conditions. It is native to South Africa. Vines can form dense patches and smother all other vegetation. Additionally, the vines can grow 60+ feet in trees. Once established, Cape ivy vines and rhizomes can have growth rates of more than 20 feet in all directions per year. In California, Cape ivy flowers in mid to late winter and early spring. Although most Cape ivy seed is not viable in California, it is viable in some other countries and has proven viable under lab conditions. Cape ivy is mildly toxic to wildlife and can become toxic to fish and aquatic wildlife, if sufficient contact with water and dissolved plant matter occurs. Cape ivy is extremely invasive in riparian or shaded habitat. Although it does not usually produce viable seed in California, it has an extremely high growth rate and spreads vegetatively. The vines, stolons, and rhizomes are easily fragmented; a fragment as small as a half inch, with a node, can develop roots and re-sprout. As Cape ivy has a high carbohydrate and water content, even if left to dry for 2 or 3 months or more, a fragment can re-sprout when it rains or contacts moisture.
Panic veldt grass (Ehrharta erecta) is a perennial non-native grass. It is native to South Africa.
The roots usually form a shallow clump although they can grow deeper in sandy soil. Panic veldt grass can grow in conditions from full sun to almost full shade. This species can create flowers and prodigious seed year-round. On the Central coast, seeds can germinate any time of the year in areas with sufficient moisture or fog. Due to the fact that this grass grows well in almost full shade, produces ample seed and germinates year-round, it represents a serious threat to riparian, wooded or other partially shaded areas, where it can outcompete native understory plants.
Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) is a non-native, perennial invasive plant that can grow to 10+ feet in height. Fennel is native to Europe. It seems to grow best in areas of soil disturbance and may inhibit the growth of native plants, possibly due to allelopathic properties. The cultivar forms used for human consumption are usually not invasive. A single plant may produce multiple stems and 1000s of flowers and seeds. It usually flowers from late spring through the end of summer.
Fennel mostly reproduces by seed, but under good conditions can spread from root fragments.
Fennel is invasive in some habitats and is particularly invasive in areas with soil disturbance.

Laguna Grande Regional Park
Guidelines for Invasive, Non-native Plant Species 11 September 2021 Once it develops a dense stand it will exclude native plant species due to it competitive seed bank and possibly allelopathic properties.
English ivy (Hedera helix, H. spp. and cultivars) is a general term used for a group of species.
There are over 12 Hedera species and hundreds of cultivars. They are morphologically similar and often require chromosome testing to identify accurately. Most plants in this area are likely one of three species with very similar morphological features and reproductive patterns. These species are native to Europe and often hybridize. English ivy is a non-native, perennial woody plant with 2 growth forms. When young it assumes a vine form that can grow upward to 100+ feet. This allows it to grow high into trees and form dense, monocultural coverage on the ground that eliminates almost all other vegetation. When it reaches the mature reproductive form, it is often erect and has tree or shrub-like stems. It mostly forms flowers in the fall and berries in the spring on vertical surfaces. Each plant can produce 1000s of seeds. English ivy is mildly toxic to wildlife and has been called a green desert. English ivy is highly invasive and spreads both vegetatively and by seed. Birds can spread the seed large distances. English ivy can grow over and smother almost all other vegetation. Additionally, it will grow up in trees and damage them from the weight, dense coverage and wind breakage.
Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) is a perennial climbing and ground cover vine. It is an evergreen and is a native to eastern Asia. The vines grow rapidly and can reach lengths of 30 feet. This honeysuckle flowers in late spring throughout the summer. Japanese honeysuckle is mildly toxic to humans, but does have some edible uses. Japanese honeysuckle can be highly invasive. Japanese honeysuckle grows rapidly and can smother or girdle small trees and shrubs with its vines. As ground cover it can outcompete native plant species. It spreads by both seed and rhizomatous stems which can root at each node.
Kikuyu grass (Pennisetum clandestinum) is a non-native perennial grass that is native to tropical portions of Africa. It has prostate stems with a complex system of tough, branching rhizomes and stolons, mostly in the top 4-6 inches of soil. Kikuyu grass flowers from April to October and seed may be long-lived in some habitats. This grass can spread by both seed and vegetatively by rhizome or stolon fragments. When established, Kikuyu grass can form dense mat-like patches or grass areas that limit the growth of native plant species.
Garden nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus) is a non-native, annual or perennial, invasive garden escape. It is native to Central and South America. It can grow in multiple habitats, and often becomes invasive in riparian habitat. It has long climbing stems or vines that grow rapidly.
Garden nasturtium may form a dense groundcover and cover small shrubs or trees. Garden nasturtium flowers from late spring through the summer and produces ample seed. This species reproduces from the seed and vegetatively from stem fragments. Garden nasturtium is moderately invasive, particularly in riparian habitats with ample sun and well-draining soils. It may densely cover the ground and inhibit the growth of native plants. Once established Garden nasturtium can be difficult to control with its large seed bank.

Laguna Grande Regional Park
Guidelines for Invasive, Non-native Plant Species 12 September 2021 Periwinkle (Vinca major) is a non-native, perennial, evergreen, invasive plant that is native to Europe. Periwinkle usually flowers from April to August. However, this species stems and flowers are almost always sterile, so spread from seed is uncommon. Trailing stems have been observed as long as 6+ feet and can re-root at each node. Periwinkle spreads almost exclusively from trailing stems and stem fragments. Periwinkle is highly toxic and most species will not usually eat it, including goats.
Periwinkle is highly invasive in shaded habitats once it is introduced. It creates a dense, monocultured ground cover that prevents native seedlings or the growth of native species.
Calla lily (Zantedeschia aethiopica) is a non-native, perennial, monocot that is native to South Africa. It is usually deciduous in the central coast, due to the long dry season. It can grow in full shade, but usually does not bloom without some sunlight. Calla lily usually flowers in the late spring to early summer. Each seed pod can contain up to 50 seeds. All parts of a Calla lily are toxic to humans and wildlife. Calla lily is moderately invasive in riparian or partially shaded habitats with well-draining soils. However, it usually does not flower in full shade. Calla lily spreads by seed and vegetatively by rhizomes. Additionally, each plant can create large numbers of specialized buds along the rhizome the result in new stems and flowers.
4.0 PRIORITY AND TREATMENT
The management of invasive, non-native plants refers to the removal/control of species that have been considered be a significant threat to the habitat value of the park’s riparian woodland and/or wetlands. To guide management actions and allocation of resources, priorities for species/occurrence removal were developed. This plan identifies six priority levels based on a species infestation, its ability to spread into habitat areas, and available removal/treatment actions. In addition, priority levels identify where removal actions may result in significant short or longer-term impacts to native riparian and/or wetland resources. Table 3 outlines the six priority levels.
Table 3. Priority Levels for Invasive, Non-native Plant Species Removal and Control
CODE PRIORITY RATIONALE
1 Highest Isolated patches of highly invasive species that significantly degrade habitats.
The goal is eradication in Years 1-3
2 High Localized occurrences suitable for complete control/eradication in Years 1-5 3 Moderate Isolated patches unlikely to spread significantly in next 5 years. If resources are not initially available treat in Years 6-10
4 Low Occurrences confined by trails or other barriers. Occurrences are intermixed with native species and removal/control would have significant short and/or long-term impacts on native woodland/wetland habitat.
5 Lowest Dense occurrences within inaccessible wooded terrain; heavy equipment and/or labor costs would be high for initial removal and long-term control; significant short and/or long-term impacts to native woodland habitat. 6 No Action Occurrence does not pose a significant impact to native biotic resources or is not likely to pose a significant decline in native habitat values over time.

Guidelines for Invasive, Non-native Plant Species 13 September 2021
4.1 Removal/Control Treatments
Invasive, non-native plant species within the project area can be controlled through use of heavy equipment, hand removal/cutting, mechanical weed whipping and other tool work, and herbicide application. The most effective control techniques must take into account a species growth cycle, its flowering period, seed production/release periods, and its occurrence or level of infestation within the project area. Table 4 identifies techniques and general guidelines for invasive plant control.
General Guidelines and Specifications. The techniques to control specific invasive, non-native plants are numerous. The various techniques and methods have been tailored specifically for the plant species, conditions and locations within the park and are listed in Table 4. Figures 3 and 4 display the priority level and recommended treatment method(s) for each invasive, non-native plant occurrence. Proper training of field personnel is recommended prior to all field work, such that the method and technique is correlated to the biology of the species and the surrounding environmental conditions. Additionally, as natural environments are subject to constant dynamic processes, adjustments to methods or techniques may be required.
Field Training. Although supervision as to timing, technique and general location for invasive plant management can be provided for personnel performing invasive plant fieldwork, the personnel performing the work will need to be capable of operating independently. Untrained personnel will cause negative impacts on plant management results. Therefore, a certain level of field training is required for success. Training should include, but not be limited to, the follow skills and abilities:
▪ The ability to identify the key invasive plant species likely to be encountered within the work area. This could be achieved by disseminating a booklet of major invasive plants and field training sessions.
▪ The ability to identify the key native plants species likely to be encountered within the work area. This could be achieved by disseminating information on native plants in the project area and field training sessions.
▪ Although field personnel often have a high degree of skill with various types of equipment, details of proper techniques and timing should be provided to achieve maximum efficiency and success.
▪ Instructions should be provided so if field personnel encounter plants, animals or situations outside of their scope of training, they will know the proper course of action to take when these situations occur. General guidance should be provided to workers to limit harm to sensitive or protected habitats and species (such as dusky-footed woodrat dens, bird nests), including guidelines to employ that would limit the disruption of work. ▪ Use adaptive management strategies. Field personnel may have useful and efficient ideas and methods for doing a given task. Field supervisors should be encouraged to consider new ideas and potential improvements based on monitoring the effectiveness and effects of actions implemented on both the targeted species and the habitat, short and long-term.

Note: Eradication of Cape ivy, English ivy and Himalayan blackberry may require many or all of the treatment methods in Table 4 to be successful. As these three species are often intertwined with native plants and found in riparian woodlands to be retained, efforts at eradication could result in short and moderate-term environmental damage to these woodlands. Additionally, eradicating these three species would require a long-term substantial commitment of time and resources. Therefore, for the purpose of this section, efforts for these species have been limited to control. If eradication of these species is desired, a species-specific long-term plan should be created.
Packet Page 405
Laguna Grande Regional Park
Guidelines for Invasive, Non-native Plant Species 18 September 2021 Herbicide Guidelines and Restrictions. It is suggested that herbicide and associated surfactants be utilized only when conditions and/or resources practically limit other options. Additionally, efforts should be made to limit the quantities of herbicide used, the number of applications of herbicide and to elimination the use of surfactants where possible. Some level of experimentation, within allowable agency and biological restrictions, during the first session of invasive plant control, may provide information that will assist in achieving these goals. As conditions in a particular area may allow approved, appropriate changes from standard application practices or specialized methods, factors to be considered include, but are not limited to:
▪ Proximity to listed or protected species, or associated habitat ▪ Proximity to water or seasonal flows
▪ Method and timing of application to maximize effectiveness ▪ Type and concentration of herbicide
▪ Type and need for surfactant
▪ Potential to reduce the number of applications
▪ Plant species to be treated
▪ The density of focused invasive plant species
▪ The density and proximity of desirable plant species
▪ Timing of application to avoid conflicts with governmental environmental restrictions or biological imperatives.
Input from a Certified Pesticide Advisor may be required prior to herbicide use. Any herbicide applications should follow product label requirements, at a minimum. All herbicide use must follow legal and biological requirements and restrictions for application, cleanup and disposal.
These following considerations may exceed the product label requirements. Additional considerations could include:
▪ Herbicides potentially allowed (subject to approval and conditions). Possible herbicides that could be utilized include Milestone©, Rodeo©, Aquamaster©, Roundup Custom for Aquatic Habitats©, and Garlon 3.
▪ Surfactant allowed (subject to conditions, but recommend non-ionic only) ▪ Appropriate dye should be added to herbicide to identify placement. ▪ If herbicide work is to be done by non-county personnel, herbicide should be mixed on site, at a designated location from unopened containers. ▪ No herbicide should be used near on in running or standing water. ▪ No herbicide should be used within 48 hours after a rain event. ▪ Herbicide applications should not take place within 24 hours of a forecasted 20%+ chance of precipitation.
▪ No herbicide shall be used in proximity to listed species established by the appropriate agencies.
▪ No herbicide shall be used in proximity to nesting birds. ▪ No herbicide shall be used in proximity to bee colonies or like pollinators. ▪ Density or plant coverage protocols should be established for the types of herbicide application, when appropriate.
▪ Removable barriers shall be placed prior to area herbicide spraying (ex; stake and screen erosion fencing), when appropriate.

4.2 Precautions to Protect Sensitive Biotic Resources
Implementation of some invasive, non-native plant management activities has the potential to harm native plant and animal species, if such resources are present in the work area. For example, ground nesting birds can be harmed if they have nests within areas subject to vegetation removal during the bird nesting season. Dens of dusky-footed woodrat can be harmed if weed control activities inadvertently alter these dens. Measures are described in this section on actions to be implemented to avoid impacts to non-target plants and animals. In addition, work during the rainy season should be avoided, as there can be inadvertent impacts on downstream waters if sediment and soils are dislodged. If work is proposed between October 15 and April 15, work should be conducted away from the active creek channel and not in areas of standing water. If bare ground is created, consider placing erosion control features, such as straw wattles, around the perimeter of the treated area. Additional erosion control measures may be warranted. Work along the creek and pond edge should be done in a manner that avoids impacts to water quality.
Worker access in the creek bed and along the pond edge should be minimized.
Pre-Construction Bird Nest Survey and Woodrat House Avoidance. When invasive plant removal work is to occur within the bird-breeding season (i.e., typically March 1 through August 31) measures are needed to ensure work does not affect nesting birds, as all migratory bird nests are protected under the Federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act.
Prior to vegetation removal the work area should be walked and inspected to determine presence/absence of nesting migratory birds. This survey should be conducted by a qualified biologist or by trained Park personnel. Meandering walking surveys should be conducted through the work area up to 7 days prior to work. If birds are found nesting within or immediately adjacent to the proposed work area, reschedule work until young have fledged, as determined by a qualified biologist, or the biologist shall establish an appropriate sized buffer zone around the nest(s) where no work shall take place until all young have fledged.
The work area should be walked to identify any wood rat houses. All stick houses are to be retained, with a minimum 10-foot buffer established around each house. Each house should be flagged and workers notified as to the location of each den.
4.3 Implementation Schedule and Adaptive Management
The removal of invasive, non-native plant species control should be timed to coincide with specific weather and plant growth conditions. As much as is possible, let the biology guide the timing of the treatment. Most invasive weed infestations can be effectively controlled when treatments are implemented prior to plant flowering, which reduces seed formation. Some biennial and perennial species are best treated after flowering, when plant nutrients are being expended and treatment actions can stress the plant, reduce its vigor, and inhibit its ability to reproduce. Other species may be best treated when they are focusing on drawing nutrients into the roots or stems for storage (i.e., English ivy, Himalayan blackberry). Table 5 displays the typical flowering period for each species.
Table 6 presents a generalized schedule of when plant species flower so as to schedule invasive weed control and maintenance. This schedule should only be used as a guide, as plant growth, including timing of flowering and seed set, are greatly influenced by rainfall and temperature Packet Page 407
Laguna Grande Regional Park
Guidelines for Invasive, Non-native Plant Species 20 September 2021 patterns. Also, various techniques may require changing patterns to maximize effects.
Management actions should be updated and refined in response to weather patterns, plant responses, and as new information on weed control/treatment is gathered. All management actions should be monitored as to their effectiveness.
Tables 4, 5, and 6, used together, provide guidelines for determining the optimum timing for invasive weed control.

DRAFT WILDLIFE ANALYSIS FOR THE BIOLOGICAL
RESOURCES SECTION OF THE INITIAL STUDY
Introduction
This section is based on reconnaissance‐level biological field surveys conducted by EMC Planning Group biologist Patrick Furtado, M.S., on May 18, May 24, and June 15, 2021, to document existing plant communities/wildlife habitats and evaluate the potential for special‐ status species to occur on the project site. Biological resources were documented in field notes, including species observed, dominant plant communities, significant wildlife habitat characteristics, and riparian and wetland habitat. Qualitative estimations of plant cover, structure, and spatial changes in species composition were used to determine plant communities and wildlife habitats. Habitat quality and disturbance levels were also described.
Prior to conducting the survey, Mr. Furtado reviewed aerial photographs, natural resource database mapping and reports, and other relevant scientific literature. This included searching the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Endangered Species Database (USFWS 2021), California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) California Natural Diversity Database (CDFW 2021), and California Native Plant Society (CNPS) Inventory of Rare and Endangered Plants (CNPS 2021) to identify special-status plants, wildlife, and habitats known to occur in the vicinity of the project site. Special-status species in this report are those listed as Endangered, Threatened, or Rare, or as Candidates for listing by the USFWS and/or CDFW; as Species of Special Concern or Fully Protected species by the CDFW; or as Rare Plant Rank 1B or 2B species by the CNPS.
A search of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) was conducted for the target Seaside USGS quadrangle, and eight surrounding quadrangles (Monterey OE N, Marina, Salinas, Monterey, Spreckels, Soberanes Point, Mount Carmel, and Carmel Valley) to generate a list of potentially occurring special-status wildlife species in the project vicinity (CDFW 2021). Records of occurrence for special-status plants were also reviewed for those twelve USGS quadrangles in the California Native Plant Society (CNPS) Inventory of Rare and Endangered Plants (CNPS 2021). A U.S Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Endangered Species Program threatened and endangered species list was generated for San Benito County (USFWS 2021).
Appendix X, Special-Status Species in the Project Vicinity, presents tables with CNDDB results, which lists special-status species documented within the project vicinity, their listing status and suitable habitat description, and their potential to occur on the site. Figure X, Packet Page 415

Special-Status Species Known to Occur in the Project Vicinity, presents a map with CNDDB results.
Critical habitat is a designation used by the USFWS for specific geographic areas that contain features essential to the conservation of an endangered or threatened species and that may require special management and protection. The project site is not within a critical habitat area.
Wildlife species identified with the potential to occur on the project site include:
▪ California red-legged frog (Rana draytonii);
▪ Coast Range newt (Taricha torosa);
▪ Western pond turtle (Emys marmorata);
▪ Burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia);
▪ Tricolored blackbird (Agelaius tricolor);
▪ American badger (Taxidea taxus);
▪ Monterey dusky-footed woodrat (Neotoma fuscipes luciana); ▪ Monterey shrew (Sorex ornatus salarius);
▪ Hoary bat (Lasiurus cinereus); and
▪ Townsend's big-eared bat (Corynorhinus townsendii).
Special-Status Amphibians and Reptiles
The following special-status amphibian and reptile species occur in the project vicinity and were assessed for the potential to occur on the project site:
▪ California red-legged frog, federally listed as Threatened and a California Species of Special Concern;
▪ Coast Range newt, California Species of Special Concern; and ▪ Western pond turtle, California Species of Special Concern.
California Red‐legged Frog
A federally-listed Threatened species and California Species of Special Concern, California red‐legged frog occurs in lowlands and foothills primarily in perennial or ephemeral ponds, pools, and streams where water remains long enough
(14‐28 weeks) for breeding and metamorphosis of tadpoles. Specific breeding sites include streams, creeks, ponds, marshes, sag ponds, deep pools, backwater areas, dune ponds, lagoons, and estuaries. California red-legged frog may disperse from their aquatic breeding habitats to upland habitats during the dry season. They prefer upland habitats that provide Packet Page 416
moisture to prevent desiccation and protection from predators, including downed logs, woody vegetation, boulders, moist leaf litter, or other refugia during the dry season. In areas where upland habitats do not contain structure, they take refuge in burrows. However, if there is sufficient water at their breeding location, they may remain in aquatic habitats year‐ round instead of moving to adjacent uplands.
During wet seasons, frogs can move long distances between habitats, traversing upland areas or ephemeral drainages. Dispersal distances are typically less than 0.3 mile, with a few individuals moving 1.2‐2.2 miles. Seeps and springs in open grasslands can function as foraging habitat or refugia for wandering frogs.
CNDDB records indicate that the closest known occurrence of California red-legged frog is approximately 2.5 miles south of the project site (Occurrence No. 939, CNDDB 2021). There are no known occurrences within the project area lake or drainages, however breeding and upland habitat is potentially present. If impacts to California red-legged frog occur, they could be significant. Implementation of mitigation measures BIO-X and BIO-X would reduce this potential, significant impact to California red-legged frog to a less-than-significant level.
BIO-X Prior to ground disturbance, a qualified biologist shall conduct a training session for all construction personnel. At a minimum, the training shall include a description of special-status species potentially occurring in the project vicinity, including, but not limited to, California red-legged frog, Coast Range newt, western pond turtle, burrowing owl, tricolored blackbird, American badger, Monterey dusky-footed woodrat, Monterey shrew, special-status bats, and nesting birds and raptors. Their habitats, general measures that are being implemented to conserve species as they relate to the project, and the boundaries within which construction activities will occur will be explained. Informational handouts with photographs clearly illustrating the species’ appearances shall be used in the training session. All new construction personnel shall undergo this mandatory environmental awareness training.
The qualified biologist will train biological monitors selected from the construction crew by the construction contractor (typically the project foreman).
Before the start of work each day, the monitor will check for animals under any equipment such as vehicles and stored pipes within active construction zones.
The monitor will also check all excavated steep-walled holes or trenches greater than one foot deep for trapped animals. If a special-status species is observed within an active construction zone, the qualified biologist will be notified immediately and all work within 50 feet of the individual will be halted and all equipment turned off until the individual has left the construction area.
Packet Page 417
5.0 Section Title
4 EMC Planning Group Inc.
The Laguna Grande Regional Park Joint Powers Authority shall document evidence of completion of this training prior to ground disturbance.
BIO-X A qualified biologist shall conduct preconstruction surveys following the guidance documented in the Revised Guidance on Site Assessments and Field Surveys for the California Red-legged Frog (USFWS 2005) no more than two weeks (14 days) prior to the start of construction activities. The project site will be surveyed for potential migratory and/or upland activity. The qualified biologist shall prepare a report documenting the results of the preconstruction surveys for submittal to the Laguna Grande Regional Park Joint Powers Authority prior to ground disturbance.
If California red-legged frog is found, the Laguna Grande Regional Park Joint Powers Authority will coordinate with the USFWS and/or CDFW to determine the appropriate course of action per the requirements of FESA and/or CESA (e.g., obtaining Incidental Take Permits) and implement the permit requirements prior to ground disturbance.
3. The following measures from the USFWS Programmatic Biological Opinion for Issuance of Permits under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act, including Authorizations Under 22 Nationwide Permits, for Projects that May Affect the Threatened California Red-legged Frog in Nine San Francisco Bay Area Counties, California (USFWS 2014) shall be implemented:
a. Construction documents shall delineate a 100-foot boundary from the outer edge of riparian vegetation along the lake and drainages. b. A qualified biologist shall be on site during all activities within 100 feet from the outer edge of riparian vegetation along the lake or drainage that where California red-legged frog may be encountered.
c. To the extent possible, all ground-disturbing work within 100 feet from the outer edge of riparian vegetation along the lake and drainage shall be avoided between November 1 and March 31, the time period when California red-legged frogs are most likely to be moving through upland areas.
d. All ground-disturbing work within 100 feet from the outer edge of riparian vegetation should be accomplished during the dry season, with no construction activities occurring during rain events or within 24 hours following a rain event.
Packet Page 418
e. Prior to construction activities, exclusionary fencing shall be placed to keep construction vehicles and personnel from impacting potentially jurisdictional waters and riparian/wetland habitat outside of work areas.
A biological monitor shall supervise the installation of exclusionary fencing and monitor at least once per week until construction is complete to ensure that the protective exclusionary fencing remains intact.
Exclusion fencing material shall be selected to avoid accidental entrapment of wildlife species, such as fencing with a smaller gauge or no gaps at all (e.g., Animex™ fencing).
f. To minimize harassment, injury, death, and harm in the form of temporary habitat disturbances, all project-related vehicle traffic shall be restricted to established roads, construction areas, equipment staging, storage, parking, and stockpile areas.
g. If a California red-legged frog is encountered, all activities which have the potential to result in the harassment, injury, or death of the individual shall be immediately halted. A qualified biologist shall then assess the situation and select a course of action that shall avoid or minimize adverse effects to the animal.
h. Uneaten human food and trash attracts crows, ravens, coyotes, and other predators of the California red-legged frog. A litter control program shall be instituted at each project site. All workers shall ensure their food scraps, paper wrappers, food containers, cans, bottles, and other trash are deposited in covered or closed trash containers. The trash containers shall be removed from the project site at the end of each working day. i. Loss of soil from run-off or erosion shall be prevented with straw bales, straw wattles, or similar means provided they do not entangle, block escape or dispersal routes of the California red-legged frog. j. No insecticides or herbicides shall be used at the project site during construction or long-term operational maintenance where there is the potential for these chemical agents to enter the river, or uplands that contain potential habitat for the California red-legged frog. k. No pets shall be permitted at the project site, to avoid and minimize the potential for harassment, injury, and death of the California red-legged frog.

l. For on-site storage of pipes, conduits, and other materials that could provide shelter for special-status species, an open-top trailer shall be used to elevate the materials above ground. This is intended to reduce the potential for animals to climb into the conduits and other materials. m. To the maximum extent possible, night-time construction shall be minimized or avoided because dusk and dawn are often the times when the California red-legged frog is most actively moving and foraging. n. Plastic monofilament netting (erosion control matting), loosely woven netting, or similar material in any form shall not be used at the project site because California red-legged frogs can become entangled and trapped in them. Materials utilizing fixed weaves (strands cannot move), polypropylene, polymer, or other synthetic materials shall not be used. o. Trenches or pits one foot or deeper that are going to be left unfilled for more than 48 hours shall be securely covered with boards or other material to prevent the California red-legged frog from falling into them.
Coast Range Newt
Coast Range newt is a California Species of Special Concern. This species is endemic to California and distributed along the coast and coast range mountains from central Mendocino County south to San Diego County. It is found from sea level to at least 1,280 meters on Mt. Hamilton in Santa Clara County. Coast Range newt burrows in or uses soil, fallen logs, or debris for cover. Central California localities are found in wet forests, oak forests, chaparral, and rolling grasslands. It will occupy upland habitats when not breeding.
During reproduction, Coast Range newts will migrate to intermittent streams, rivers, lakes, and ponds where they lay eggs in shallow water attached to submerged rocks or twigs.
CNDDB records indicate one occurrence of Coast Range newt approximately six miles southwest of the project site (Occurrence No. 70, CNDDB 2021). There are no known occurrences within the project area lake or drainages, however breeding and upland habitat is potentially present. Mitigation measure BIO-X, presented above, which requires a training session on special-status species potentially present on the construction site for all personnel, and BIO-X and BIO-X, which require preconstruction surveys and measures for the protection of California red-legged frog would also protect Coast Range newt, if present.
Implementation of these measures would reduce the potential, significant impact to Coast Range newt to a less-than-significant level and no additional measures are recommended.
Packet Page 420
Western Pond Turtle
Western pond turtle is a California Species of Special Concern. It is uncommon to common in suitable aquatic habitat throughout California including freshwater marshes, stock ponds, lakes, rivers, and streams. This species is considered omnivorous. Aquatic plant material, including pond lilies, beetles and a variety of aquatic invertebrates as well as fishes, frogs, and even carrion have been reported among their food. Pond turtles require basking sites such as partially submerged logs, rocks, mats of floating vegetation, or open mud banks.
Turtles slip from basking sites to underwater retreats at the approach of humans or potential predators.
CNDDB records indicate one occurrence of western pond turtle approximately 3.5 miles southwest of the project site (Occurrence No. 1014, CNDDB 2021). There are no known occurrences within the lake or drainages, however breeding and upland habitat is potentially present. Mitigation measure BIO-X, presented above, which requires a training session on special-status species potentially present on the construction site for all personnel, and BIO-X and BIO-X, which require preconstruction surveys and measures for the protection of California red-legged frog would also protect western pond turtle, if present.
Implementation of these measures would reduce the potential, significant impact to western pond turtle to a less-than-significant level and no additional measures are recommended.
Special-Status Birds
The following special-status bird species occur in the project vicinity and were assessed for the potential to occur on the project site:
▪ Burrowing owl, California Species of Special Concern; ▪ Nesting birds; protected under the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act and California Fish and Game Code; and
▪ Tricolored blackbird, California Species of Special Concern.
Burrowing Owl
Burrowing owl is a California Species of Special Concern. Burrowing owls live and breed in burrows in the ground, especially in abandoned California ground squirrel burrows.
Optimal habitat conditions include large open, dry and nearly level grasslands or prairies with short to moderate vegetation height and cover, areas of bare ground, and populations of burrowing mammals. A general, non-specific record for this species has been recorded approximately 900 feet north and west of the project site (Occurrence No. 574, CNDDB 2021).
The project site’s non-native grassland provides marginally suitable foraging habitat for burrowing owl, and a few scattered small mammal burrows on the site could be utilized for nesting habitat, but burrowing owl has low potential to occur on the site. If burrowing owl is present on or adjacent to the project site, construction activities could result in the loss or Packet Page 421
5.0 Section Title
8 EMC Planning Group Inc.
disturbance of individual animals. This would be a significant adverse environmental impact. Implementation of mitigation measures BIO-X, presented earlier, which requires a training session on special-status species potentially present on the construction site for all personnel, and BIO-X would reduce this potentially significant impact to less than significant.
Mitigation Measure
BIO-X To avoid/minimize impacts to burrowing owls potentially occurring within the project site, a biologist qualified in ornithology shall conduct surveys for burrowing owl. The approved biologist shall conduct a two-visit (i.e., morning and evening) presence/absence survey at areas of suitable habitat on and adjacent to the project site boundary no less than 14 days prior to the start of construction or ground disturbance activities. Surveys shall be conducted according to the methods for take avoidance described in the Burrowing Owl Survey Protocol and Mitigation Guidelines (California Burrowing Owl Consortium 1993) and the Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation (CDFW 2012). If no burrowing owls are found, a letter report confirming absence will be prepared and submitted to the Laguna Grande Regional Park Joint Powers Authority and no further mitigation is required.
Because burrowing owls occupy habitat year-round, seasonal no-disturbance buffers, as outlined in the Burrowing Owl Survey Protocol and Mitigation Guidelines (CBOC 1993) and the Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation (CDFW 2012), shall be in place around occupied habitat prior to and during any ground disturbance activities. The following table includes buffer areas based on the time of year and level of disturbance (CDFW 2012), unless a qualified biologist approved by the CDFW verifies through non-invasive measures that either: 1) birds have not begun egg laying and incubation; or 2) that juveniles from the occupied burrows are foraging independently and are capable of independent survival.
Location Time of Year Level of Disturbance Buffers (meters) Low Med High
Nesting Sites April 1 – Aug 15 200 m 500 m 500 m
Nesting Sites Aug 16 – Oct 15 200 m 200 m 500 m
Nesting Sites Oct 16 – Mar 31 50 m 100 m 500 m
If burrowing owl is found and avoidance is not possible, burrow exclusion may be conducted by qualified biologists only during the non-breeding season, before breeding behavior is exhibited and after Packet Page 422
the burrow is confirmed empty through non-invasive methods, such as surveillance. Occupied burrows shall be replaced with artificial burrows at a ratio of one collapsed burrow to one constructed artificial burrow (1:1). Evicted burrowing owls may attempt to colonize or recolonize an area that would be impacted, thus ongoing surveillance during project activities shall be conducted at a rate sufficient to detect burrowing owls if they return.
If surveys locate occupied burrows in or near construction areas, consultation with the CDFW shall occur to interpret survey results and develop a project-specific avoidance and minimization approach. Once the absence of burrowing owl has been confirmed, a letter report will be prepared and submitted to the Laguna Grande Regional Park Joint Powers Authority.
Nesting Birds
Protected nesting birds have the potential to nest in buildings or structures, on open ground, or in any type of vegetation, including trees, during the nesting bird season (January 15 through September 15). The project site contains a variety of potential habitats for nesting birds. Construction activities, including ground disturbance, can impact nesting birds protected under the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act and California Fish and Game Code, should nesting birds be present during construction. If protected bird species are nesting adjacent to the project site during the bird nesting season, then noise-generating construction activities could result in the loss of fertile eggs, nestlings, or otherwise lead to the abandonment of nests. Implementation of Mitigation Measures BIO-X, presented above, which requires a training session on special-status species potentially present on the construction site for all personnel, and BIO-X would reduce potential, significant impacts to nesting birds to less than significant.
Mitigation Measure
BIO-X To avoid impacts to nesting birds during the nesting season (January 15 through September 15), all construction activities should be conducted between September 16 and January 14, which is outside of the bird nesting season. If construction occurs during the bird nesting season, then a qualified biologist will conduct a pre-construction survey for nesting birds to ensure that no nests would be disturbed during project construction.
If project-related work is scheduled during the nesting season (February 15 to August 30 for small bird species such as passerines; January 15 to September 15 for owls; and February 15 to September 15 for other raptors), a qualified biologist shall conduct nesting bird surveys.
Packet Page 423
5.0 Section Title
10 EMC Planning Group Inc.
a. Two surveys for active bird nests will occur within 14 days prior to start of construction, with the final survey conducted within 48 hours prior to construction. Appropriate minimum survey radii surrounding each work area are typically 250 feet for passerines, 500 feet for smaller raptors, and 1,000 feet for larger raptors.
Surveys will be conducted at the appropriate times of day to observe nesting activities. Locations off the site to which access is not available may be surveyed from within the site or from public areas. If no nesting birds are found, a letter report confirming absence will be prepared and submitted to the Laguna Grande Regional Park Joint Powers Authority and no further mitigation is required.
b. If the qualified biologist documents active nests within the project site or in nearby surrounding areas, an appropriate buffer between each nest and active construction shall be established. The buffer shall be clearly marked and maintained until the young have fledged and are foraging independently. Prior to construction, the qualified biologist shall conduct baseline monitoring of each nest to characterize “normal” bird behavior and establish a buffer distance, which allows the birds to exhibit normal behavior. The qualified biologist shall monitor the nesting birds daily during construction activities and increase the buffer if birds show signs of unusual or distressed behavior (e.g., defensive flights and vocalizations, standing up from a brooding position, and/or flying away from the nest). If buffer establishment is not possible, the qualified biologist or construction foreman shall have the authority to cease all construction work in the area until the young have fledged and the nest is no longer active. Once the absence of nesting birds has been confirmed, a letter report will be prepared and submitted to the Laguna Grande Regional Park Joint Powers Authority.
Tricolored Blackbird
Tricolored blackbird (Agelaius tricolor) is a California Species of Special Concern found mostly throughout the Central Valley and San Francisco Bay Delta regions. Tricolored blackbirds forage in annual grasslands; wet and dry vernal pools and other seasonal wetlands; and croplands. They also forage occasionally in riparian scrub habitats and along marsh borders. Tricolored blackbirds nest near freshwater marshes. There are CNDDB records indicating tricolored blackbird activity within five miles of the project site, and Packet Page 424
riparian and wetland vegetation along the lake and drainage may support this species.
Measures recommended for the protection of nesting birds (above) are anticipated to determine if tricolored blackbirds are present and provide protection during construction, if needed.
Special-Status Mammals
The following special-status bird species occur in the project vicinity and were assessed for the potential to occur on the project site:
▪ American badger, California Species of Special Concern; ▪ Monterey dusky-footed woodrat, California Species of Special Concern; ▪ Hoary bat, California Species of Special Concern; and ▪ Townsend’s big-eared bat, California Species of Special Concern.
American Badger
American badger is a California Species of Special Concern. It is an uncommon, permanent resident found throughout most of the state, except in the northern North Coast area. This large member of the weasel family uses most shrub, forest, and herbaceous habitats with friable soils suitable for burrows. Prey species include fossorial rodents such as rats, mice, chipmunks, ground squirrels, and pocket gophers. Badger diet shifts seasonally depending on the availability of prey and may also include reptiles, insects, earthworms, eggs, birds, and carrion. Mixed oak woodland, coastal scrub, and grassland habitats provide cover, drier soils for burrowing, and prey resources for this species. A historic record for American badger was recorded approximately 700 feet east of the project site (Occurrence No. 171, CDFW 2021), and a more recent (1992) observation was recorded approximately 2.3 miles east of the project site (Occurrence No. 241, CDFW 2021). Open grassland areas and openings along trails provide suitable habitat for the American badger. American badgers are known to occur in the region and could den and forage on the project site. Ground disturbance could result in impacts to this species from direct mortality or injury. Loss or harm to American badger is considered a significant adverse impact. Implementation of Mitigation Measure BIO-X, presented above, which requires a training session on special-status species potentially present on the construction site for all personnel, and BIO-X would reduce potential, significant impacts to American badger to less than significant.
Mitigation Measures
BIO-X Not more than 14 days prior to the commencement of ground-disturbing activities, a qualified wildlife biologist shall conduct surveys of the grassland habitat on site to identify any potential American badger burrows/dens. If the survey results are negative (i.e., no badger dens observed), a letter report Packet Page 425
5.0 Section Title
12 EMC Planning Group Inc.
confirming absence will be prepared and submitted to the Laguna Grande Regional Park Joint Powers Authority and no further mitigation is required.
If the results are positive (badger dens are observed), the qualified biologist shall determine if the dens are active by installing a game camera for three days and three nights to determine if the den is in use.
a. If the biologist determines that a den may be active, coordination with the CDFW shall be undertaken to develop a suitable strategy to avoid impacts to American badger. The strategy may include the following: the biologist shall install a one-way door in the den opening and continue use of the game camera. Once the camera captures the individual exiting the one-way door, the den can be excavated with hand tools to prevent badgers from reusing them. If the biologist determines that the den is a maternity den, construction activities shall be delayed during the maternity season (February to August), or until the badgers leave the den on their own accord or the biologist determines that the den is no longer in use. b. If the game camera does not capture an individual entering/exiting the den, the den can be excavated with hand tools to prevent badgers from reusing them.
After dens have been excavated and the absence of American badger confirmed, a letter report will be prepared and submitted to the Laguna Grande Regional Park Joint Powers Authority.
Monterey Dusky-Footed Woodrat
The Monterey dusky-footed woodrat is a California species of Special Concern typically found within dens chaparral or oak woodland habitats with moderately dense understory growth and abundant dead wood for nest construction. Monterey dusky-footed woodrat is known to occur in the project vicinity and woodland and riparian habitat at the project site is considered potential habitat. Removal or disturbance of habitat during nesting season is considered a significant impact. Implementation of Mitigation Measure BIO-X, presented above, which requires a training session on special-status species potentially present on the construction site for all personnel, and BIO-X would reduce potential, significant impacts to Monterey dusky-footed woodrat to less than significant.
Mitigation Measure
BIO-X A qualified biologist shall conduct pre-construction surveys for woodrat nests within the trail improvement area. All woodrat nests shall be flagged for avoidance of direct construction impacts where feasible. If impacts cannot be avoided, woodrat nests shall be dismantled no more than three days prior to Packet Page 426
dismantling so that the occupants do not attempt to rebuild. Nests are to be slowly dismantled by hand in order to allow the occupants to disperse.
Monterey Shrew
The Monterey shrew is a California species of Special Concern. This species is an endemic subspecies of shrew occurring only on the Monterey Peninsula. Preferred habitats include riparian areas and other moist microclimates with available insect prey. Little is known about this species, since it is difficult to locate and does not survive well in traps due to very high metabolic rates. A general observation of this species has been recorded to include the project site; however, the record is from 1919 and it the current distribution of Monterey shrew in the area is unknown (Occurrence No. 3, CDFW 2021). Riparian and woodland habitats within the project area could support this species, if present. Construction activities at the project site could result in the loss of individuals on or adjacent to the project site.
Mitigation measure BIO-X, presented above, which requires a training session on specialstatus species potentially present on the construction site for all personnel, and BIO-X and BIO-X, which require preconstruction surveys and measures for the protection of California red-legged frog would also protect Monterey shrew, if present. Implementation of these measures would reduce the potential, significant impact to Monterey shrew to a less-thansignificant level and no additional measures are recommended.
Bats
Trees and/or buildings or structures on or adjacent to the project site could provide roosting habitat for state-listed species of special concern hoary bat and Townsend's big-eared bat.
Hoary bat is a solitary species that generally prefers dense foliage of medium to large trees.
Townsend’s big-eared bat prefers roosting and nesting found in caves, tunnels, mines, and buildings. These species have been identified as occurring within 1.2 and seven miles to the west and east of the project site, however little is known about their distribution in the project vicinity (CNDDB 2021). Construction activities at the project site could result in the disturbance of roost and natal sites occupied by special-status bats on or adjacent to the project site, if present. Implementation of mitigation measures BIO-X, presented earlier, which requires a training session on special-status species potentially present on the construction site for all personnel, and BIO-X would reduce this potential, significant impact to special-status bats to a less-than-significant level.
Mitigation Measure
BIO-X Approximately 14 days prior to tree removal or construction activities, a qualified biologist shall conduct a habitat assessment for bats and potential roosting sites in trees to be removed, in trees within 50 feet of the construction easement. These surveys shall include a visual inspection of potential roosting features (bats need not be present) and a search for presence of guano within the project site, Packet Page 427
5.0 Section Title
14 EMC Planning Group Inc.
construction access routes, and 50 feet around these areas. Cavities, crevices, exfoliating bark, and bark fissures that could provide suitable potential nest or roost habitat for bats shall be surveyed. Assumptions can be made on what species is present due to observed visual characteristics along with habitat use, or the bats can be identified to the species level with the use of a bat echolocation detector such as an “Anabat” unit. Potential roosting features found during the survey shall be flagged or marked.
If no roosting sites or bats are found, a letter report confirming absence shall be prepared and submitted to Laguna Grande Regional Park Joint Powers Authority and no further mitigation is required.
If bats or roosting sites are found, bats shall not be disturbed without specific notice to and consultation with CDFW.
If bats are found roosting outside of the nursery season (May 1 through October 1), CDFW shall be consulted prior to any eviction or other action. If avoidance or postponement is not feasible, a Bat Eviction Plan will be submitted to CDFW for written approval prior to project implementation. A request to evict bats from a roost includes details for excluding bats from the roost site and monitoring to ensure that all bats have exited the roost prior to the start of activity and are unable to re-enter the roost until activity is completed. Any bat eviction shall be timed to avoid lactation and young-rearing. If bats are found roosting during the nursery season, they shall be monitored to determine if the roost site is a maternal roost. This could occur by either visual inspection of the roost bat pups, if possible, or by monitoring the roost after the adults leave for the night to listen for bat pups. Because bat pups cannot leave the roost until they are mature enough, eviction of a maternal roost cannot occur during the nursery season. Therefore, if a maternal roost is present, a 50-foot buffer zone (or different size if determined in consultation with the CDFW) shall be established around the roosting site within which no construction activities including tree removal or structure disturbance shall occur until after the nursery season.

MEETING AGENDA MINUTES:
10:15 – 10:30: Attendees gathered at the Hillside BBQ space in the Eucalyptus parking lot. While waiting attendees were able to review maps of the park outlining habitat communities and showing proposed FORTAG trail alignment options. Attendees were asked to identify areas of concern with orange stickers. See maps below. See Sign-in Sheets for event participants.
10:30 – 11:15: The (32) attendees were split into two groups to begin the site walk around the lake and discuss key points of the park. See map below for key points:
11:15: The two groups reconvened at the south bridge to walk and discuss the forebay section of the park. 12:15 – 12:30: The group returned to the Hillside BBQ space, finishing the site walk.
MEETING SUMMARY:
1. Primary urgency for residents was the forebay area
2. Participants favored both accessibility improvements and vegetation maintenance
3. Participants were not overly interested in adding ‘more’ lake access points or extending sightlines across the lake
4. Participants desire to have sightlines along the main path be clear and vegetation be managed to open up views around the curves of the path and where the paths or lake access points branch off of trail
5. Participants were supportive to protect habitat areas and extend habitat resources
6. Participants want a transparent decision-making process and the opportunity to review materials and decisions being made
Packet Page 444
BFS LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS Monday, August 23, 2021 Page 2 Of 6
7. Participants want clear delineation on where the City of Seaside and City of Monterey boundary occurs in the park
8. Aesthetics of the park was not a priority; many participants enjoy the park character as is
9. Participants are frustrated by the slow-moving process for mitigating and reducing illegal camping.
Participants feel like they’ve been put on the backburner for 10 years.
ACTION ITEMS AND NEXT STEPS
1. BFS and JPA staff to respond to participant questions by September 24th. a. Where are the City property lines
b. Is trail resurfacing apart of the project
c. What is the schedule for the project
d. What lighting levels are optimal for park safety
e. What is the budget for the strategy plan and for the maintenance work to occur? Where is funding coming from?
2. Action Item: BFS to provide schedule for project webpage to show deliverables, public meetings, and process
3. Action Item: BFS to provide meeting minutes and site video for project webpage
4. Action Item: JPA provide noticing for next public meeting SITE WALK COMMENTS:

Stop 3: North Bridge adjacent to Holiday Inn Express
• Comment: There are not enough trash cans and litter is thrown in the reeds/vegetation • Comment; Adding benches and picnic tables would be nice along the trail • Question: What level of lighting is allowed in habitat areas • Comment: Current light fixtures are not attractive
Packet Page 445
BFS LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS Monday, August 23, 2021 Page 3 Of 6 • Comment: Light fixtures need to be tamper proof
• Comment: The section of park path near the large viewing dock is low and floods during wet season • Comment: Nearby businesses need to get involved
• Comment: Clear out vegetation around the dock
• Comment: There is so much vegetation around the lake that you can’t tell there is a trail. Open up site lines to rest of trail to help draw people into the park • Question: Will the plan address accessibility issues? (ie gap at bridge and trail) • Question: Is it feasible to use goats for vegetation maintenance? • Question: Who is responsible for maintenance?
• Question: How is maintenance funded and budgeted?
Stop 4: North-Western Habitat Area at English Street
• Comment: Clean up understory and limb up canopy to allow views around corners of trail • Comment: Culverts are eroded and need repair / replacement • Comment: Thys Norton from Monterey Parks does a good job keeping trail areas clear • Comment: Monterey did major clearing along the informal trails to access illegal camping in this area; residents were not happy, but it has grown back very quickly • Comment: Mowing the bull rush is good, but it does grow back quickly • Comment: The mulched trails in the area helped reduce the encampments • Comment: Check out the website birdability.org-Advocates to create birding opportunities for everyone
• Comment: Monterey Audobon members acknowledge this as a prime bird area • Concern: Accessibility varies through the park and the trails. Habitat area is not accessible • Question: Are there noise abatement options?
• Comment: There are several feral cats that live with in the park • Question Is boardwalk decking an option in low lying areas? • Comment: There is car camping around the perimeter of the park and the parking lots • Comment: Resident still doesn’t go into the habitat areas where trails have been cleared. Resident doesn’t like not being able to see what she is walking up too (ie people congregated or hanging out)
• Comment: Strong support for the habitat area from Monterey Audobon member-would like more park spaces like this space
Stop 5: Laguna Grande Park Soccer Field/Playground/Picnic Area at Virgin Street • Comment: Move playfield fence to the water side of the trail • Comment: This is a good area to install senior work out equipment, similar to El Estero Park • Comment: There are issues with soccer balls going over the fence and into the lake . People go past fence to access the lake
• Question: Should the pathway fence taller?
• Comment: Lift understory and canopy to open up views to lake • Concern that the reeds will fill in the lake
• Comment: Eating areas and trash cans should be in one place • Comment: Add benches or picnic table for watching soccer and enjoying the area • Comment: Pathway sightlines are well maintained in this stretch of the park Packet Page 446

Stop 6: Southern Park Extents
• General consensus: Majority of group do not go back into this space, most do not feel comfortable or safe in this space
• General Consensus: Deter illegal camping, open sightlines and provide access for emergency services
• Comment: Pathway width is comfortable and D.G. material is consistent with park character • Comment: Lack of comfort is due to the limited outlet • Question: Is the water quality of the ditch going to be tested? • Discussion: Re-alignment of existing pathway (potentially to become the FORTAG trail connector) to be closer to Canyon Del Rey
o Opportunities: improve pathway visibility
o Opportunities: expand habitat space to offset mitigation required to further develop trails within sensitive habitat areas
o Opportunities: adding more bioswales and drainage features will continue to add to habitat diversity
o Clarification: The FORTAG Trail connector is not a part of the project and development of the trail will not be given priority over mitigating the safety issues of concerned residents o Comment: Residents were promised for multiple years an action plan to deal with illegal camping
o Comment: Vegetation maintenance and new trail development in the ‘forebay’ habitat area should be the number one priority for the strategy plan • Comment: Trails in the forebay area can be mulch similar to the north-west habitat area. • Question: Who manages the forebay area? Which City is the forebay area located in? • Comment: Residents have proposed to City staff the desire for a dog park in the Seaside maintenance/storage area. Dog Park would provide “eyes on” / visibility and extra egress from the forebay
• Comment: Adding lighting would help with safety concerns. • Comment: Noise from the illegal camping does impact residents • Comment: Fire danger from illegal camping is a concern. Residents acknowledge improvements due to consistent vegetation maintenance – but they want to know the plan • Comment: Provide accessible route from corner of N. Fremont down into the park. • Comment: Illegal camping has noticeably been reduced, thanks to the municipalities • Comment: Prioritize the forebay – that’s what has been promised • Question: What is the project schedule?
• Question: What happened to the MPRPD budget of $65,000 that was set aside for the project • Question: How much is the consultant getting paid

This reorganization includes the addition of a Recreation Superintendent and a Public Works Senior Services Manager/City Engineer position to the Position Control List for Fiscal Year 2023/24. The Recreation Programs Supervisor will be promoted to Recreation Superintendent adding the supervision of the custodial, communications, and marketing divisions within the Recreation Department to their purview, in addition to other assignments. The Recreation Programs Supervisor position will remain active on the Classification Plan.
These classifications will be FLSA exempt positions assigned to the Seaside Managers Packet Page 448
Item No. 8.J. Page 2 of 2
and Supervisory Employees' Association. The salary for the Recreation Superintendent will be $141,602.24 annually at the top step and the Public Works Senior Services Manager/City Engineer will be $169,750.88 annually at the top step.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is sufficient budget available in the current FY22-23 budget to cover the costs and these positions have been included in the FY23-24 budget proposal that is before the Council for consideration tonight (June 15th 2023).

CITY OF SEASIDE
STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.K.
TO: City Council
FROM: Jaime M. Fontes, City Manager
BY: Sheri Damon, City Attorney
DATE: June 15, 2023
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION TO AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE RIGHT OF ENTRY TO MONTEREY 1 WATER (M1W)
FOR THE EXPANDED PURE WATER MONTEREY GROUNDWATER
REPLENISHMENT PROJECT
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a Right of Entry Agreement for the Expanded Pure Water Monterey Groundwater Replenishment Project.
BACKGROUND
Monterey One Water ("M1W"), formerly MRWPCA, in partnership with Monterey Peninsula Water Management District, is constructing Pure Water Monterey Groundwater Replenishment Project (PWM). PWM includes water purification to a quality exceeding drinking water standards at the new Advanced Water Purification Facility (AWPF) in Marina. Phase 1 of the Pure Water Monterey project is currently operating and the requested access and right of entry is for the expanded portion of the project. The highly purified water will be conveyed to an injection wells facility for recharge of basin aquifers and subsequent recovery in existing production wells. The City is currently working with M1W and the MPWMD to finalize the easements and other documents for ASR and the Pure Water Monterey Groundwater Replenishment Project, including the expanded area. M1W has a grant which requires a right to access the property for the project, and this temporary right of entry will do that while the final documents are negotiated.
M1W is currently undertaking the planning, design, and construction of the Expanded Pure Water Monterey Groundwater Replenishment Project (the “Project”), which includes in part the construction of deep injection wells and injection well facilities which are proposed to be located in the Expanded IWF Area on real property owned by Packet Page 461
Item No. 8.K. Page 2 of 3
the City (the “Expanded IWF Area”). The Expanded IWF Area is located within the Coastal Scrub landscape unit generally adjacent to the "Blue Line" access road along the easterly boundary of the City of Seaside, County of Monterey, California and is generally shown on Attachment 1.
The Expanded IWF Area has historically been disturbed by former military training operations and environmental remediation activities. The Expanded IWF Area is designated as Low-Density Single Family Residential in the 2003 Seaside General Plan, although the surrounding area is currently open space. The City of Seaside is undergoing a general plan update and will very likely intensify its use of Seaside East over the next several years.
The work generally covered by the Right of Entry (ROE) is technically described in the plan set entitled “Pure Water Monterey Groundwater Replenishment Project – Injection Well Facilities, Phase 4 Project (“Injection Wells Expansion Project”) – Volume 2, and generally described in Exhibit 2(“Work”). The Work includes but is not limited to the following improvements to be constructed within the Expanded IWF Area: 2 Injection Wells, one temporary injection well, monitoring wells, a percolation basin, Main Access Road and Utility Corridor (Blue Line Road) with pipelines, conduits, PG&E primary power feed, and related appurtenances – Temporary Access Width 50 feet and Permanent Width 20 feet, and temporary 20 feet wide access road (North Austin Gate off of Eucalyptus Road)
While the City and M1W negotiate terms of long term easements for the Access Road and Utility Corridor over Blue Line Road; Well Sites No. 6 and No. 7; Monitoring Well 3A site; Percolation Basin Site; and Blackhorse Pipeline alignment, M1W desires the right for it and its consultants, contractors, subcontractors, employees, and any other person acting on behalf of, under the direction of, or at the request of M1W (“Contractor(s)”) to enter the Expanded IWF Area to complete, test and operate the Work.
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE
An Environmental Impact Report for the Pure Water Monterey Groundwater Replenishment Project was approved on October 8, 2015 by the MRWPCA, SCH No. 2013051094. The City has considered this document.
FISCAL IMPACT
Strategic Plan: This action works toward Council Goal to create/promote an Abundant Water Supply.
Fiscal Impact: There is no fiscal impact associated with entering into the Maintenance and Right of Entry Agreement, but possible beneficial impact as water supplies and moratoriums lift and projects are able to proceed.

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.L.
TO: City Council
FROM: Jaime M. Fontes, City Manager
BY: Nisha Patel, Public Works Director/City Engineer
DATE: June 15, 2023
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING A BUDGET TRANSFER OF $65,000.00 OF NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT COMMISSION
(NIC) FUNDS TO THE FERNANDO PARK IMPROVEMENT
PROJECT
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution allocating $65,000.00 of Neighborhood Improvement Commission budget to the Fernando Park Improvement Project.
BACKGROUND
On June 16, 2022, the City Council approved several of the recommendations of the Neighborhood Improvement Commission (NIC) for use of their allocated funding. Two of the approved projects are the sidewalk by Sonoma Sports Court, and an information kiosk at City Hall and the Broadway City Parking Lot in the amount of $40,000.00 and $25,000.00, respectively. With other projects and compliance with regulatory requirements that took priority, City staff will not be able to complete the projects before the end of the fiscal year. Some other projects that City staff are working on with NIC allocated funding are the Highland Otis Park (lower portion), Fernando Park Improvements, and a bench at Pachetti Dog Park and a picnic table and bench at Neil Park.
Fernando Park is located on the 1700 block of Fernando Street, between San Pablo Avenue and Mingo Street. The park currently includes paths, low rock walls, a bench, and some landscaping. The Friends of Seaside Parks Association (FOSPA) secured a $25,000.00 Sunlight Giving Grant to provide a climbing rock, swing set, picnic bench and table, and seahorse rider for the park. At their February 7, 2023 meeting, the NIC approved recommending to the City Council to allocate $90,000.00 of their funds for construction services for the Fernando Park Improvement Project. On February 16, Packet Page 501
Item No. 8.L. Page 2 of 3
2023, the City Council approved allocating $80,000.00 of General Funds for design services, site preparation, construction management, picnic table and bench installation, and inspections to deliver this project. On March 2, 2023, City Council approved a budget transfer of $90,000.00 from the NIC Budget to the Fernando Park Improvement Project.
The current allocated funds for the Fernando Park Improvement Project does not allow the project to expand past the rock wall. At their meeting on June 6, 2023, the NIC unanimously voted to reallocate the funds previously allocated to the Sonoma Sports Court sidewalk and an information kiosk at City Hall and the Broadway City Parking Lot to be transferred to the Fernando Park Improvement Project. They would like Fernando Park limits to be expanded past the rock wall and additional pieces of play equipment to be installed within the new park limits.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to the preliminary review of the activities associated with this Council action, in accordance with Section 15061 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, the project is Categorically Exempt (Class 1, Section 15301, Existing Facilities). Existing Facilities Class 1 exemptions consist of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alterations of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use.
The proposed Fernando Park Improvement Project would consist of site grading, installation of playground equipment, hand sanitizer station, a picnic bench and table, and a few additional pieces of play equipment which would not result in an expansion or significant modification of Fernando Park. There is no significant expansion of use associated with the Project.
FISCAL IMPACT
The current adjusted budget for the Fernando Park Improvement Project is $170,000.00 in account no. 342-8910-9582. Staff recommends adopting a resolution authorizing a budget transfer of $65,000.00 from the Sonoma Sports Court Sidewalk and Information Kiosk Budget (100-8910-1030) to the Fernando Park Improvement Project (342-8910-9582).

SUBJECT: ADOPT AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SEASIDE MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 12.04 STREET EXCAVATIONS AND ESTABLISHING A
MORATORIUM AGAINST CUTS ON RECENTLY RESURFACED
STREETS WITHIN THREE TO FIVE YEARS (SECOND READING -
ROLL CALL VOTE)
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt an Ordinance amending Chapter 12.04 Street Excavations of the Seaside Municipal Code updating inconsistencies with current organizational best practices for permitting, associated fees, resurfacing specifications, and liability insurance and establishing Sections 12.04.100, 12.04.110, 12.04.120 relating to a moratorium against cuts on newly improved streets, moratorium permit requirements, and moratorium restoration requirements.
BACKGROUND
Senate Bill 1 (SB1), the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 and Measure X, a countywide sales tax initiative through 2047, provides annual funding to the City specifically to address multi-modal transportation needs. In 2018, bond funds secured through Measure X and funds from SB1 funded over $10 million for pavement rehabilitation projects.
Pavement networks are often the most valuable asset an agency owns. Properly maintained pavement is an essential component to the traveling public's safety. The city has undergone a robust public process to ensure public input into our community's transportation priorities, and has spent millions of dollars on road maintenance and rehabilitation projects in the last several years. With the ongoing revenues generated by Measure X and SB1, the city will continue to provide pavement rehabilitation Packet Page 508
Item No. 9.A. Page 2 of 2
projects.
The city has determined to establish a moratorium against cuts on newly resurfaced streets to protect the city's investment and to prolong the life of the pavement. The moratorium will prevent pavement cuts on newly resurfaced streets; require permitting for emergency repair on newly resurfaced streets; and provide restoration requirements for pavement cuts on newly resurfaced streets. Newly resurfaced streets include roadways that have been paved or overlaid with pavement in the past 5 years and slurry sealed roadways in the past 3 years. Exemption shall be granted by the city engineer for work deemed as emergencies. Emergencies are deemed to exist if the work is necessary for the preservation of property, or an urgency affecting the health and welfare of residents or businesses, or failed pipelines or utility services affecting public security or public safety. Work deemed as emergencies will be required to obtain a permit and will be subject to moratorium restoration requirements. Restoration requirements for newly resurfaced streets include expanded resurfacing limits per the proposed Ordinance and city engineering standards.
Amendments to SMC Chapter 12.04 are necessary to update inconsistencies with current organizational best practices for permitting, associated fees, resurfacing specifications, and liability insurance. The draft ordinance attached as attachment 1 outlines the changes, deletions, and additions.
On June 1, 2023 the City Council introduced an Ordinance establishing a moratorium against cuts on newly improved streets and associated permit and restoration requirements, and updating inconsistencies with current organizational best practices.
The second reading of that Ordinance is now before Council.

12.04.100 Moratorium against cuts on newly improved streets.
A. It shall be unlawful for any person to cut or open the surface of a public street that has been newly constructed, reconstructed, slurry or cape sealed, overlaid, or improved within the previous five (5) years for recently Packet Page 516
paved/overlaid streets and three (3) years or recently slurry sealed streets, commencing from the date of acceptance of the improvements.
B. No permits shall be issued to excavate or cut in a public street that has been paved/overlaid in the past five (5) years or slurry sealed in the past three (3) years except in the case of emergencies, or when the city engineer grants an exemption. An emergency shall be deemed to exist if the work is necessary for the preservation of property; or an urgency affecting the health and welfare of the City’s residents or businesses occurs; or in the case of failed pipelines or utility services that affect public security or public safety.
C. The city engineer may grant exemptions to the moratorium for emergency repairs and/or for the installation of critical infrastructure and/or facilities where other alternatives to installation are not practical or feasible as provided in subsection (b) above, or for the installation of needed critical infrastructure or facilities (including, but not limited to communications infrastructure) where no other alternatives to cutting a street subject to the moratorium exist. When granting exceptions, the city engineer may impose reasonable conditions, including requirements that installation occur utilizing methods such as boring which have a lesser impact, to insure the rapid and complete restoration of the street and the surface paving.
D. If a street subject to the moratorium is cut for any reason, the extent of required repairs for the damages caused by such cut shall be in accordance with SMC 12.04.120. If the city engineer determines that restoration of the street is not appropriate at a particular time for reasons relating to weather or other short term complications, the city engineer may order a delay and/or the posting of bonds to insure completion of the work when proper conditions allow for the restoration work.
Packet Page 517
E. The decision of the city engineer in granting exemptions may be appealed in writing to the City Council by filing with the City Clerk a written notice of such appeal, setting forth the specific grounds thereof.
12.04.110 Moratorium, permits: required.
A. It shall be unlawful for any person to trench, cut, dig, make or cause any excavation in any street subject to the moratorium pursuant to SMC
12.04.100 unless the person shall have first obtained a permit to do so.
B. Any person who is required to repave a street shall obtain a permit and shall be responsible for the full cost of plan preparation, plan review, construction inspection, material testing, bonding, and all other expenses related to the work.
C. Permit applications, fees and requirements shall be subject to all conditions established in this chapter.
12.04.120 Moratorium, restoration requirements.
A. Street restoration for streets subject to the moratorium may include repaving, surface grinding, base, sub-base repairs, and striping or other related work as needed, and may include up to full-width surface restoration of the street.
B. The city engineer may allow horizontal directional drilling instead of street cuts to minimize street surface restoration.
C. The following requirements are established for street restoration work:
1. Recently Paved/Overlaid Streets. Final resurfacing shall include the grinding of existing surrounding pavement and repaving at a minimum Packet Page 518
depth 2 inches. For trenches perpendicular to traffic lanes, the permittee shall grind ten (10) feet on either side of the trench line, and for the full width of any traffic lanes (including parking lane) that have been cut. For trenches parallel to the traffic lanes, the permittee shall grind the entire width of the traffic lanes (including parking lane) for the full length of the trench with a minimum of ten (10) feet on each end per city engineering standards or as directed by the city engineer. For trenches other than those perpendicular or parallel to traffic lanes, the city engineer shall establish appropriate limits of paving. At the discretion of the city engineer, full-width slurry seal may be substituted for overlay in residential areas. The placement of the surface course of the repaving shall be by a self-propelled, automatic-leveling, multiple-width paving machine.
2. Recently Slurry-Sealed Streets. Slurry seal shall be applied to the patched area no sooner than thirty (30) days and no later than ninety (90) days after completion of the pavement repair. For trenches perpendicular to traffic lanes, the permittee shall slurry seal ten (10) feet on either side of the trench line and for the full width of any street that has been cut. For trenches parallel to the traffic lanes, the permittee shall slurry seal the entire width of the traffic lanes (including parking lane) for the full length of the trench, with a minimum of ten (10) feet on each end per city engineering standards or as directed by the city engineer. For trenches other than those that are perpendicular or parallel to traffic lanes, the city engineer shall establish appropriate limits of resurfacing.
3. Transverse paving joints shall be perpendicular to the direction of travel, and longitudinal paving joints shall not be permitted in vehicle wheel paths. Work shall meet all applicable construction standards and city standards. The city engineer may modify the scope of work stated Packet Page 519
above, including increasing the restoration requirements as he/she shall deem reasonable to fully restore the street to the condition in which it existed prior to the cut.
4. Except under subsection 2 above, pavement improvements shall be completed within 30 days of the completion of the work or project that required the pavement cut. If the city engineer determines that restoration of the street is not appropriate at a particular time for reasons relating to weather or other short term factors, the city engineer may order a postponement until proper conditions allow for restoration work.
SECTION 3. SEVERABILITY
A. If any provision of this Ordinance or the application thereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid the remainder of the Ordinance, including the application of such part or provision to other persons or circumstances, shall not be affected thereby and shall continue in full force and effect. To this end, provision of this Ordinance are severable.
B. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed each section subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phase thereof irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, subdivision, paragraphs, sentences clause or phrases be held unconstitutional, invalid or unenforceable.

Page | 4
June 15, 2023
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council:
I am pleased to submit to you this Proposed operating and capital budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2023 and ending June 30, 2024. This budget message outlines a balanced budget that addresses the community’s immediate service needs, while positioning the City to enhance services and progress.
Economic Conditions
The fiscal year 2023-24 budget has been developed in a somewhat difficult national, state and local economy. After two years of exceptional and unexpected growth, the City’s revenue streams have begun to flatten out, while at the same time the City’s costs continue to rise.
Headwinds that the City continues to monitor and plan for include:
The nation is currently experiencing high inflation rates. Economists are now split on whether a recession is likely to hit in 2023 or if we will only see a slowdown. Expenses are likely to increase (due to inflation as well as increased cost of labor) and revenues are likely to flatten out.
PERS unfunded liabilities continue to grow.
Regional bank failures
Within the confines of these conditions, I am pleased to deliver the Council a proposed budget that balances ongoing operating revenues with ongoing operating costs.
Summary of Service Level Changes
The Proposed Budget continues to fund staff and programs designed to enrich the lives of the residents of Seaside, including ongoing park, street, and facility maintenance, parks and recreation programs, police and fire safety programs, a continuation of the new parking enforcement program, and Muni Water billing services. Preventative public works maintenance programs include the ongoing “See,Click,Fix” program, but also plans for a new pot hole repair program. In an effort to make the City’s code enforcement more proactive, the City hired a new part time Community Enhancement Specialist. This employee is tasked with driving the City’s streets and documenting code violations to the Code Officers for investigation and possible citation. The City rolled out an automated license plate reading system in 2023 and has already found success with this program. The City also plans to roll out a gunshot detection program in June or July of 2023. Both of these programs are funded for fiscal year 2024. The City is also Packet Page 528

proud to have spearheaded a regional taskforce with a mission to eliminate the sale and use of illegal fireworks in Seaside and surrounding communities. The taskforce formed in 2023 and expects to continue the mission into 2024 and beyond.
In 2021, the City was awarded a state of California, CalHome grant in the amount of $1M to be used to fund loans to residents for the purpose of building accessory dwelling units. The program is restricted to low income applicants. Unfortunately, due to staffing turnover the City has been slow to roll this program out. Now, with the hiring of a new Housing Manager, the program is ready to roll out in June of 2023 and continue into fiscal year 2024. City staff in collaboration with the City Council have also begun the process of standing up a Housing non-profit. The non-profit will originally be supported by City funds and City staff. The long term goal will be for the non-profit to stand on its own, with diversified revenue streams and a staff of its own. This will be a long process, but one the City believes will be fruitful in terms of creating affordable housing in the City of Seaside.
The Proposed Budget includes a Capital Improvement Program (CIP) that will remove the remaining blighted former Fort Ord buildings within Phase 1 of the Campus Town project ($5M), thus clearing the way for that project to begin. The CIP also includes continued street and sidewalk improvements ($4.2M), funding multiple park and downtown enhancement projects ($2.7M), completing necessary maintenance on Fire Station #1 ($250k) and the purchase of portable office space to be used as a “Fab Lab” (a computer, internet and other technology lab) by the community ($350k).
These are but a few of the exciting new initiatives that the City is working on. Many more are incorporated into the City’s Strategic Plan, which will be discussed subsequently.
Budget Summary
With $46.3 million of budgeted operating revenue and $46.0 million of budgeted operating expenditures (including transfers), the 2023-2024 Proposed General Fund Budget, shows an operating surplus of $228 thousand. In addition, $5.6 million of available fund balance has been set aside to pay for the annual Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects. Despite this spend down of fund balance, the City’s rainy day reserves are fully funded for fiscal year 2023-24.

GENERAL FUND REVENUES
The key revenue sources to the City’s General Fund are Sales Tax, Property Tax, Transaction Tax, Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT), and Utility User Tax (UUT). These five revenues account for 84%, or approximately $38.8 million, of the $46.3 million in ongoing General Fund revenues.
The City continues to move the Seaside Grand Hyatt and the Campus Town development projects forward. Both of these developments have the potential to increase City revenues significantly.
GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES
Total 2023-2024 proposed general fund operating expenditures (including operating transfers) are $46.0 million with an additional assignment of $5.6 million to pay the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The CIP is funded from existing unassigned fund balance. This adopted expenditure level results in a small operating surplus of projected revenues over proposed expenditures in the General Fund in the amount of $228 thousand. As noted, the 2023-2024 budgeted expenditures reflect each department’s effort to improve community service delivery and move Council priorities forward, all while maintaining a balanced budget.
Personnel costs continue to be the City’s largest cost at $34 million or 66% of total costs. While the City added a few critical positions to the proposed position control list this year (Project Manager, Assistant Public Works Director, Public Works Senior Services Manager/City Engineer and Firefighter) staff also proposes budgetary freeze for several positions (Risk Management $-

Technician, Police Deputy Chief, 1 of 2 Senior Civil Engineers, 1 of 2 Building Inspectors, 1 Maintenace Field Supervisor, and 1 Maintenance Worker II).
The freezing of these positions is one of the tools used to balance the budget and on a year over year basis, the position control list is in fact showing a net decrease of only 1 position. Overall, while the City has made a few reorganizational choices, staffing levels have been held level.
Ongoing in the annual budget review is a Long Term Forecast prepared by the City’s Finance Director. The forecast, which serves as a guide to the City’s financial future, shows that the City has the opportunity to maintain adequate financial performance over the course of the next five years. In order to do so, the City will have to make challenging choices between alternatives.
By making difficult choices, the City can reduce its rate of spending and maintain policy level reserves.

Strategic Plan
On November 21, 2022, the Mayor, City Council, City Manager and the City’s entire Executive Management team met with the Community to finalize a strategic plan. The strategic plan model is built to focus the City’s efforts on five overarching priorities:
1. Effective, Accessible Governance
2. Vibrant Local Economy
3. Diverse & Inclusive Community
4. Enhanced Physical Infrastructure & Abundant Water Supply
5. Community Safety & Quality of Life
With these five overarching priorities in mind, Executive staff prepared a two year work plan designed to implement strategies to achieve these priorities. The work plan will be updated and further developed on a two year rolling basis. With the strategic plan fully integrated into the annual budget, the budget study session will now serve as an opportunity to review the current work plan, make changes and begin discussions on potential efforts for the following year.
Understanding the fiscal commitment to each of the Council’s strategic priorities is a powerful tool that has the potential to transform the City’s budgeting process and hone the Council’s ability to pursue its goals
As may be seen, the City’s work plan is heavily weighted towards two priorities, Effective, Accessible Governance, and Enhanced Physical Infrastructure & Abundant Water Supply.
While this is a good starting point, I look forward to working with the Council to direct resources to the other priorities in the coming years.

Community Social Services Funding
The City of Seaside supports and works with many local non-profit organizations with a focus on social welfare and social justice programming. The City also provides social welfare programs “in-house” as City services. The fiscal year 2023-24 budget includes the following funding for social welfare and social justice programs: Community Social Services Grant Program ($420k) Family and Community Support Division ($554k) Summer Youth Intern Grant Program ($50k), CDBG ($158k), and City Council Community Support ($80k).
In fiscal year 2022-23 the City donated $57k from the Mayor’s Youth Fund and is likely to donate a similar amount in fiscal year 2023-24. The City also contributes to various non-profits in the form of fee waivers. In fiscal year 2023-24, the City waived approximately $121k of fees. Since fees are designed to offset City costs, these may be thought of as a donation even though there is no transfer of cash. Across all programs, the total amount the City is likely to spend on Community Social Services in fiscal year 2023-24 is approximately $1.4 million.
Closing & Acknowledgement
This document represents the continuation of an extraordinary joint effort from staff, employees and the Council to maintain the lowest costs possible while still providing core services to our community. This approach reflects the City’s continued commitment for future fiscal sustainability and is in keeping with stated City Council policies, the 2023 Strategic Plan and the fiscal realities, as we understand them. The City will need to hold costs down in the next few years including operating costs, non-profit donations and capital project funding, or risk cutting into our rainy day reserves. The City is certainly up to the challenge.
The proposed budget has been developed and assembled by the City’s budget team under the direction of Mr. Victor Damiani, Finance Director, with assistance from Ms. Jessica Riley, Assistant Finance Director, and Juan Carlos Amaya-Hernandez, Financial Analyst. I would also like to thank the entire executive team for their assistance in helping us to reach our fiscal goals of a balanced budget. Thank you all for a job well done.
Sincerely,

USER’S GUIDE TO THE BUDGET
The functions of local government stem from three levels of policy direction: federal, state and local. Within this intergovernmental system, local government is responsible for providing basic public services such as maintaining streets and roadways, providing traffic management systems, maintaining parks, providing community services, and ensuring public safety. Local government must also fulfill certain state and national policy objectives such as transportation and environmental protection while addressing the expectations and values of its citizens. For local governments, the primary tool used to coordinate the provision of governmental services and to provide legal authorization for the expenditure of funds is the annual budget. A local government budget is a financial plan that matches existing resources with the needs of the community.
The City of Seaside’s budget is developed and adopted by the City Council and provides Seaside residents and City staff with a plan for implementation of the services, goals and objectives specified by the City Council. The budget of the Seaside County Sanitation District (District) has been included in the presented budget. Although it is a legally separate entity, the Seaside County Sanitation District is included because the district’s operations are managed by City staff.
The Operating Budget is a guide for the receipt and disbursement of funds used to provide daily, routine public services to the community. The Five-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and Capital Projects Budget provide citizens and City officials with detailed information about capital projects that are planned for near- or mid-term implementation.
This budget outlines the many municipal services, programs and projects provided by the City of Seaside over the course of the fiscal year. It identifies revenue projections and specific expenditures necessary to deliver services to the community. The budget is intended to provide transparency to City residents about programs and services as well as the policies underlying the City Council’s spending decisions.
DISTINGUISHED BUDGET PRESENTATION AWARD
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awards a Distinguished Budget Presentation Award to a select few cities each year. Achievement of the award reflects the commitment of the governing body and staff to meeting the highest principles of governmental budgeting. In order to receive the budget award, the City must satisfy nationallyrecognized guidelines for effective budget presentation. These guidelines are designed to assess how well an entity’s budget serves as:
A Policy Document – to describe financial and operating policies, goals, and priorities for the organization.
A Financial Plan – to provide revenue and expenditure information by fund, department, division, and category.
An Operations Guide – to describe activities and objectives for the fiscal year. A Communications Tool – to provide information on budgetary trends, planning processes, and integration of the operating and capital budgets.
The City’s Finance Staff is honored to have won this prestigious award for the second time with the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Budget document:

In March, each department was provided information on the prior year actuals, the 2022-2023 Adopted and Amended Budget amounts, and current expenditures to date. The departments reviewed their expenditures in prior years, their current expenditure levels, and their direction for the upcoming year. Based on this strategy, the departments prepared and submitted their draft budgets to the Finance Department and City Manager for compilation. The Human Resources Department provided information on recruitment for vacant positions, negotiated increases to salaries, and benefit costing information that was incorporated into the personnel budgeted cost.
The Finance Department prepared revenue estimates using a variety of projection techniques, i.e. prior year collections, economic trend analysis, knowledge of program changes, etc.
Additionally the Finance department partners with revenue forecasting experts to assist with projections. Using the revenue estimates and the departments’ initial requests, the Finance Department assembled a draft of the budget for review by the City Manager. The Draft Budget was finalized after this review
The 2023-2024 Draft Budget was presented to the City Council on May 30th & May 31st, 2023 for initial review, discussion and direction. The Draft Budget was then updated according to Council direction and presented again to the City Council on June 15, 2023 for consideration of adoption.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING AND FUND DEFINITIONS
The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by all General, Special Revenue, Debt Service and Capital Projects Funds. This means that revenues are recognized when they become both measurable and available. Measurable means the amount of the transaction can be determined and available means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. Expenditures are recorded when liabilities are incurred, except that principal and interest payments on long-term debt are recognized as expenditures when due. The accrual basis of accounting is utilized by all Enterprise and Internal Service Funds. This means that revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred.
To demonstrate fiscal accountability, various funds are established in accordance with objectives of special regulations, restrictions, and/or limitations. Each fund is considered a separate accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts. The funds that are used in the financial reporting model for the City of Seaside are as follows:
The General Fund is the City’s primary operating fund. It is used to account for resources traditionally associated with general government activities which are not required (legally or by sound fiscal management) to be accounted for in another fund.
Special Revenue Funds are used to account for revenues that are legally restricted for a particular purpose. The City has several Special Revenue Funds including Supplemental Law Enforcement, Asset Forfeiture, FORA Blight Removal, Gas Taxes and Measure X. Special Revenue Funds are also used to account for grants obtained to fund City projects and activities.
Packet Page 550
INTRODUCTION
City of Seaside FY 2023/24 Proposed Budget
Page | 27
Capital Project Funds are used to account for financial resources to be used for construction or acquisition of fixed assets, such as buildings, equipment, or roads.
Debt Service Funds are used to account for the repayment of debt.
Internal Service Funds are used by the City to account for the financing of goods and services provided by one department to other departments within a government organization on a cost-reimbursement basis. They are set up to take advantage of economies of scale, to avoid duplication of effort, and to accurately identify costs of specific governmental services.
The City utilizes three Internal Service Funds: Equipment Maintenance, Self-Insurance and Management Information Systems.
Enterprise Funds are used to account for operations that are supported by a fee charged to external users for services, similar to a private business. The City has two Enterprise Funds:
the Water fund and the Golf fund.
Component Unit Funds are used to account for legally separate organizations for which the City is financially accountable or other organizations whose nature and significant relationship with the City are such that exclusion would cause the City’s financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. The City reclassified the Seaside County Sanitation District in Fiscal Year 2021-22 from a component unit to a custodial fund.
Private-Purpose Trust Funds Private-purpose trust funds are used to report trust arrangements, other than pension and investment trusts, under which principal and income benefit individuals, private organizations, or other governments. The resources held under this type of fund are not available to support the government’s own programs. The City has one private purpose trust fund: the Successor Agency. The Successor Agency operates under auspices of the legislatively formed Oversight Board comprised of representatives of local agencies that serve the redevelopment project area. The sole purpose of this fund is to retire debt of the former redevelopment agency.
Custodial Funds account for resources held by the City in a custodial capacity for other governments, private organizations, or individuals. The resources held under this type of fund are not available to support the government’s own programs. The City reclassified the Seaside County Sanitation District in Fiscal Year 2021-22 from a component unit to a custodial fund.
Although it is a legally separate entity, the Seaside County Sanitation District’s operations are managed by City staff.
COST ALLOCATION PLAN AND INDIRECT CHARGES
Costs of the City’s central service departments are allocated through the City’s Cost Allocation Plan (CAP). The CAP allocates costs that originate in one department but benefit one or more other departments. By way of example; the City Clerk Department performs the function of “Records Management” which benefits multiple other departments within the City organization.
The costs associated with “Records Management” are allocated from the City Clerk Department to the multiple other departments that benefit from the service.
Packet Page 551
INTRODUCTION
City of Seaside FY 2023/24 Proposed Budget
Page | 28
The City employs a multi-step process for distributing the indirect costs of central service departments and the City’s Internal Service Funds to various departments and funds. A double step-down allocation methodology is used to distribute costs among central services and to programs that receive benefits. The double step-down method initially requires a sequential ordering of central service departments. Department indirect cost allocations are then made in the order elected to all benefiting programs, including cross allocations to other central services.
The CAP is prepared using costs from the previous fiscal year. This results in a timing “disconnect” between the costs being allocated and the budgeted costs in each respective department. The benefit of this system, however, is that the cost allocation plan is not required to be “trued up” to actual costs at the end of the budget year – as would be required if the CAP were developed on a budgeted cost basis.
The City’s Cost Allocation Plan is prepared by an outside consultant and is available upon request from the City’s Finance department.
CONCLUSION
Financial forecasting is, at best, an inexact science. Many experts and studies offer varied opinions and forecasts, each completely logical and reasonable. Staff has developed revenue and expenditure estimates based on trends and forecasts available as of April and May of 2023.
These estimates take into account what has happened in the local economy, current revenue and expenditure experiences, and, to the extent possible, what is projected to happen over the next 14 months.

BUDGET GUIDELINES & FISCAL POLICIES
ACCOUNTING, AUDITING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICY
The City of Seaside receives an independent audit annually and maintains an internal audit capacity. The City prepares an ACFR (Annual Comprehensive Financial Report) and all other annual financial reports in compliance with Generally Accepted Accounting Procedures (GAAP), as outlined by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The City maintains a strong system of internal controls, which has resulted in an unqualified audit opinion for many years.
RESERVE POLICY
The City Council has established three general fund reserve policies as listed below:
Capital Reserve: The general fund capital reserve is to be used to fund capital purchases or projects. This reserve is funded by the City Council setting aside funds to be deposited into this Packet Page 553
INTRODUCTION
City of Seaside FY 2023/24 Proposed Budget
Page | 30
reserve. This fund is to have a year‐end balance of not less than five percent of operating expenditures.
Special Reserve: The general fund special reserve is established to be used for extraordinary items that may arise from time to time. This reserve is funded by the City Council setting aside funds to be deposited into this reserve. This fund is to have a year‐end balance of not less than ten percent of operating expenditures.
Emergency Reserve: The general fund emergency/contingency reserve is to be maintained to have a year‐end minimum balance of not less than fifteen percent of any given year’s general fund operating expenditures. This reserve is to be used for non‐budgeted emergencies that may occur, including weather emergencies, economic emergencies, equipment breakdown emergencies, and other unforeseen emergencies.
BUDGET POLICIES, INCLUDING BALANCED BUDGET POLICY: • The City’s policy is to adopt a balanced budget, which means that planned expenditures do not exceed planned funds available. Available funds may include the use of fund balances on hand, provided that in the case of the General Fund, the available fund balance does not drop below the reserve levels required by the City Council Reserve policy detailed above. • The City will set fees and user charges for enterprise fund activities at a level that fully supports the total direct and indirect program costs. • The City will establish fees for service based upon an awareness of the total direct and indirect costs of offering the service. It is recognized that certain services may be subsidized by general taxes as determined by the City Council. • The identification of funding sources will be required for new or expanded programs. • The City will provide for maintenance and replacement of fixed assets and equipment, as appropriate. • The City will comply with all the requirements of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). • The City will annually retain the services of an independent Certified Public Accounting firm to audit the City’s financial statements and conduct any tests of the City’s records deemed necessary to render an opinion on the City’s compliance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). • The City shall maintain budgetary controls. The objective of these budgetary controls is to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual budget approved by the City Council. The legal level of budgetary control (i.e. the level at which expenditures cannot exceed the budgeted amount) is established at the fund and department level. The Adopted Budget may be adjusted from time to time during the fiscal year as needed to accomplish the goals of the City Council. Adjustments within a department that do not impact the total departmental budget may be proposed by the Department Head and approved by the City Manager and Finance Director. Budget adjustments that will impact the departmental total require City Council approval. • Outstanding encumbrances at prior fiscal year-end will automatically be carried over to current year’s budgets. Unspent appropriations that are authorized and funded by grant revenues from prior fiscal year will automatically be carried over to current year’s budget.
Incomplete multiple year project balances will be automatically carried over to the current Packet Page 554
INTRODUCTION
City of Seaside FY 2023/24 Proposed Budget
Page | 31
year’s budget. All other appropriations are subject to review and approval by the City Council with each successive budget and are not considered automatically recurring. • The Finance Department will prepare a quarterly budget report including actual expenditures and encumbrances for distribution to the City Council, City Manager, and Department Heads to facilitate monitoring of the budget. The proposed budget document will serve as the third quarter budget report. • The City’s General, Special Revenue, Capital Project and Trust Funds are budgeted and accounted for using the modified accrual basis of accounting. The revenues are recognized when they become measurable and available as net current assets. Property tax revenues and assessments receivable are accrued when collected within 90 days following year‐end. Other revenues that are accrued include sales taxes, transaction taxes, utility users and transient occupancy taxes, interest, rent, grants earned and certain other intergovernmental revenue. Expenditures are generally recognized when the liability is incurred, except that interest and principal on general long‐term obligations are recognized when due. Enterprise and Internal Service Funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting. Their revenues are recognized when earned, and their expenses are recognized when incurred. • The draft and adopted Budget will be presented in a form which is sufficient to allow the City Council to determine and review:
o Provision of City Council priorities;
o Projected revenues by major category;
o Operating expenditures by department or program, and by fund; o Staffing by department;
o Service levels;
o Statements of objectives and accomplishments;
o Recommendations for policy changes;
o Capital improvement appropriations by project. • The draft and adopted Budget will provide a comparison with the preceding year’s actual results and current year’s projected results for each category of revenue and expenditure shown in the budget. Descriptions of service levels to be provided under the draft and adopted Budget will be included along with statements of services reduced or eliminated and services improved or added, as compared to the current year. • Cost allocations will be made for internal service charges as follows: Equipment Maintenance is allocated based on the number of vehicles a department uses. Weight is added according to age and type of vehicle. Management Information Services is allocated based on the number of user accounts a department uses. Insurance is allocated based on the department budget. Administrative charges are allocated to activities based on the City’s annually prepared Cost Allocation Plan.
STREET REPAIR FUNDING POLICY:
Each year, at the mid-year budget review a projected year-end operating surplus or deficit will be calculated for the City’s general fund. Twenty five percent (25%) of any projected surplus will be committed to the following year’s pavement rehabilitation project. This amount will be in addition to any Maintenance of Effort (MOE) imposed upon the City by any outside agency.
Packet Page 555
INTRODUCTION

GANN APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT (PROPOSITION 4) POLICY:
In 1980, the State Legislature added Section 9710 to the Government Code requiring each local jurisdiction to establish, by resolution, an annual appropriations limit. Informally known as Proposition 4, or the “Gann Initiative”, it restricts the total amount of appropriations allowed in any given fiscal year from the “proceeds of taxes.” The Code was modified by two subsequent initiatives in 1988 and in 1990. Proposition 98 established the return of tax revenues in excess of the limit, with limited exceptions, to the taxpayers within two years by refund or reduction in tax rates unless extensions of the limit are approved by majority popular vote. Proposition 111 allowed new adjustment formulas for the required appropriation limit, that are more responsive to local growth issues. The proposition also now requires an annual review of the limit calculations, i.e. reviewed by the independent auditor in conjunction with the annual financial audit. The City monitors the Limit. Staff reviews calculation methodology and alternative factors each year.
STAFFING POLICY:
The number of staff City-wide may not exceed the number of positions detailed in the Position Control list. The City Manager may, however, opt to fill certain positions at a lower classification than designated in the position control list, when deemed strategically advantageous. The Position Control list may be found in a later section of this budget document and is approved by the City Council at the time of budget adoption. Staff levels are continuously reviewed to identify over/understaffing so that appropriate changes may be requested either during the annual budget process or during the mid‐year review.
PERFORMANCE MEASURES POLICY:
The budget document has been formatted to detail the operational goals, objectives and performance measurements of each department. The goal of the organization is to establish a comprehensive reporting system which will give the public, the City Council, and the City staff the ability to evaluate the level and value of service provided to the community.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM POLICY:
The budget document has been formatted to include a section on the City’s Five‐Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP). This program provides a multi‐year plan for capital improvements which is updated annually to ensure compliance with the program. Capital Projects in the CIP should have a project cost of at least $50,000.00 and a project duration of more than one year.
Capital projects with a projected cost of less than $50,000.00 and a duration of less than one year are budgeted in the appropriate departmental operating budget and are considered part of the operating budget even though they may be capitalized for accounting purposes.
CASH MANAGEMENT AND INVESTMENT POLICY:
In accordance with Government Code Sections 53601 through 53659, the City of Seaside annually reviews and approves the Investment Policy. The policy identifies the rules and procedures that apply to investment instruments that may be used to invest idle cash. It is Packet Page 556
INTRODUCTION
City of Seaside FY 2023/24 Proposed Budget
Page | 33
important to note that the City does not invest in high risk investments such as derivatives and reverse purchase agreements. All investments are made within the parameters of the Government Code and the City of Seaside Investment Policy.
DEBT POLICY:
In accordance with SB 1029, the City has adopted a Debt Policy. The policy states the purposes for which debt proceeds may be used, the types of debt that may be issued, the relationship of the debt to, and integration with, the capital improvement program or budget, the policy goals related to the City’s planning goals and objectives, and the internal control procedures implemented to ensure the proceeds of a proposed debt issuance will be directed to the intended use.

BUDGET BACKGROUND
On March 2, 2023, The City’s annual mid-year budget review was presented to the City Council.
At the meeting, the Council was informed of a likely FY 2022-23 budget surplus. That night Council approved multiple budget amendments including various professional services, capital outlay, contributions to community groups and supplies and services. Total budget amendments resulting from the mid-year budget review totaled $2.7M. Additionally, the Council approved a new Street Repair funding policy, which has been included in the policies section of this budget.
Immediately following the mid-year review, staff began work on the fiscal year 2023-24 budget preparation. The process began in early March and culminated with a draft budget presented to the City Council at a special meeting on May 30 and May 31, 2023. Staff received direction from the City Council at the May budget meetingsand then plans to bring a revised budget to the next regularly scheduled City Council meeting on June 15, 2023. Staff may receive further input and direction from Council at that meeting or Council may adopt the budget on that night. If further direction is given, staff will present a revised budget accordingly for adoption at a special meeting (likely to be scheduled for June 29, 2023).
OVERVIEW
The City of Seaside has a combined annual budgeted appropriations request for FY 2023-24 of $79M. This amount includes appropriations from all funds ($79M). Appropriations for FY 2023- 24 are $3.5M less than projected for FY 2022-23.
The City’s appropriations budget includes the General Fund, Water & Golf Enterprise Funds, as well as Special Revenue Funds, Grant Funds. Debt Service and Capital Project funds. Core city services such as police, fire, community development, recreation and parks are budgeted in the General Fund and are supported primarily by sales tax, property tax, transient occupancy tax (TOT) and charges for services rendered. The City’s Water and Golf Enterprise funds are supported by user fee revenues, which are charged for services provided to the City’s residents.
Activities supported by funds received by the City that are restricted in their use are included in Special Revenue Funds and Grant Funds. Construction activities associated with capital projects are accounted for in Capital Project Funds.
Included in the $79M total annual budget amount are the City’s Internal Service Funds. These expenditures are found in the budget twice, because the revenue to the Internal Service Funds is a budgeted expenditure in the City’s other funds.
Included in the $79M total annual appropriations budget amount is the City’s Custodial Fund (Seaside County Sanitation District). Although the district is a separate entity from the City, the district budget is included in the budget document because City staff manage the district’s operations.
Private Purpose Trust Funds are used to account for resources that a government holds as a trustee or agent on behalf of an outside party and therefore cannot be used to support the government’s own programs. The City has one private purpose trust fund: Successor Agency to Seaside Redevelopment Agency.
Throughout the budget document, reference is made to interfund transfers. An interfund transfer is a transfer of funds from one City fund to another City fund. These transfers appear as a Packet Page 563

resource in the fund receiving the transfer and as an appropriation in the fund that is sending the transfer. While this results in the revenue and expenditure being “double counted” in the annual budget at the “all funds level”, this presentation is necessary to provide a transparent picture of actual expenditures for both the funding and receiving funds. Transfers-out for FY 2023-24 are budgeted at $11.2M. At the all funds level, however, all interfund transfers net to zero.
When Internal Service Funds, the Custodial Fund, and the Private Purpose Trust Fund are excluded from the total, the adjusted total Annual Appropriations Budget amounts to $70.7M.
CHANGES IN OBLIGATIONS & INTERFUND LOANS
The FY 2023-24 Budget includes certain debt obligations for the City. The obligations included in the budget represent the annual installment payments of principal and interest to be paid on City promissory notes or bond obligations existing at July 1, 2023. Additionally, late in FY 2021- 22 the City’s general fund loaned the City’s water enterprise $7.5M to connect to the Marina Coast Water District’s recycled water distribution system. By watering the City’s Golf Course with recycled water rather than drawing from the ground water basin, the Seaside Municipal Water System will accumulate water credits in an equal amount. This is a significant asset for the Seaside Municipal Water System that may enable it to grow in size over the coming years.
The loan includes a two year deferral period and thereafter is payable in twenty (20) annual installments of $394,838. Interest will be charged at the then-current LAIF rate of 0.37%. More detail on the City’s debt obligations may be found in the “Debt Service” section of the budget.
ALL FUNDS - FUND BALANCE
The FY 2022-23 projected “all funds” year-end fund balance is $75.4M and the FY 2023-24 all funds combined balance is projected at $62.8M. Of this balance, the City has several reserves as noted below. These reserves are committed in accordance with the City’s Fund Balance & Reserve Policies, which are intended to ensure the continued financial well-being of the City by planning for emergencies, economic uncertainties, unforeseen operating or capital needs, and cash flow requirements. The City Council annually reviews and updates the reserve policies.
As shown below, the “unrestricted or unassigned fund balance” at fiscal year-end 2023-24 is estimated at approximately $2.2M.

FUND BALANCE TRENDS
Year over year, the City’s All Funds balance is likely to decrease in FY 2023-24 by approximately $12.6M. The decrease is the result of several factors including: $5.6M in Capital Improvement Program expenditures, a spend-down of FORA Bond funds ($5.1M) and a spend-down of FORA Non-Bond funds ($2.6M). Fund balance decreases are offset increases in the Gas Tax Fund ($812k) and the Sanitation District Fund ($278k).
ALL FUNDS - REVENUE DISCUSSION
Overall, City revenues are projected to increase 7% or $4.5M. The increase is largely because of increases in special revenue and grant revenue. The Streets gas tax fund expects a $1.6M ATP grant as well as $600k from a separate the RSTP grant. Additionally, the City was awarded $1M for an ADU program in the City’s Housing fund.
As discussed at the mid-year budget review, actual tax revenue collections are flattening compared to the prior year. Indications are that FY 2023-24 will see tax revenues continue to plateau. General Fund revenue is expected to increase a modest 1% or approximately $379k over the previous fiscal year. With inflation remaining high, tax revenues might be expected to increase. However, the inflationary pressure has the potential to curb consumer spending, therefore offsetting any gains.
Some funds derive revenue on a reimbursement basis from other funds. For example, the Stormwater Fund receives substantially all of its revenue in the form of reimbursement from the General Fund. This is true also of the City’s Internal Service Funds. Since revenue in these funds is generally equal to budgeted expenditures, revenue increases can be thought of more as a result of increasing costs. The Stormwater fund shows a projected revenue decrease of $728k, due to reduced capital project work. The Internal Service Funds (combined) show a projected increase of $378k.

The final rate increase in the Council and voter approved Seaside Municipal Water System rate schedule went into effect on January 1 of 2023. No rate increases are planned for fiscal year 2023-24. The department does, however, expect revenue collection to improve post-pandemic and therefore Water Enterprise revenue is expected to increase slightly. The approved rate increases have stabilized the Water Enterprise financial condition with expected net revenues sufficient to fund $500k of Capital improvements in the coming fiscal year. The fiscal year 2022- 23 budget provided funding for the municipal water system to conduct a new water rate study.
The request for proposal is currently being finalized and the study is expected to be conducted early in fiscal year 2023-24.
Reimbursements are expected to increase for the City’s Fire Department related to permits and inspections linked to development projects. Income from Investments is expected to decrease on a year-over-year basis due to a decrease in on-time property sales. Lastly, miscellaneous revenue is expected to decrease on a year-over-year basis due to the discontinuation of the water release permit program for ADUs.

Taxes:
At the “All Funds” level, taxes include Property Tax, Vehicle License Fees, Sales and Use Tax, Transaction Tax, Transient Occupancy Tax, Marijuana Receipts Tax, Utility Users Tax, Highway User’s Tax, Measure X Tax, as well as several smaller taxes. Almost all of these revenues are also revenues for the City’s General Fund. A few, however, are not; For instance the Highway User’s Tax and Measure X Taxes are not revenue sources for the General Fund.
Sales and Use tax revenues include the City’s 1 cent general sales tax. Transaction taxes are comprised of a 1 cent tax approved by the voters in 2008 (Measure R) and a ½ cent transaction tax approved by the voters in 2017 (Measure L). Based on an analysis of trends in year-to-date tax receipts, macroeconomic conditions and an examination of local business data, it is anticipated that the City will receive combined sales, use and transaction tax revenue of $20.3M in FY 2022-23 and $20.2M in FY 2023-24 (46% of total taxes City Wide).
Property Taxes are expected to flatten out with a 1% increase forecast; going from $11.5M to $11.7M. Increasing mortgage interest rates may slow the pace of real estate sales in the year to come, but while home prices remain high and inventory low, tax collections are likely to stay strong.
Highway User Tax (HUTA) is a sales tax collected when consumers purchase fuel in California.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, gas prices dropped and this revenue source dropped in tandem. With gas prices recovering in 2022 and into 2023, this revenue source is expected to increase by 3% from $2.9M to $3.0M.

Grant Revenue:
As might be expected grant revenues historically show wide fluctuations year over year as they are dependent on availability and submission of successful grant applications. Notable grants expected in FY 2023-24 include a $1.6M ATP grant for street improvements, a $600k RSTP grant for street improvements and a $1M CalHome grant for development of ADUs. Additionally the City continues to realize nearly $1M per year in grant funds from the United State Army for maintenance activities on the Presidio of Monterey Authority (POMA). Lastly, the City expects $348k in Community Development Block Grants from the federal government.
The City applied for a $1.6M grant from the State of California Recreation Trails Program (RTP) for an “Urban Greening” project at Lincoln Cunningham Park in fiscal year 2022-23, which unfortunately was unsuccessful.

Internal Service Revenue:
The revenue to the Internal Service Funds has a direct correlation to budgeted expenditures in the City’s other funds. This is because the City’s other funds must pay for the services provided by the Internal Service Funds on a cost recovery basis. Internal Service revenue shows a steady increase over the years demonstrating the steady increase in the cost to provide services.
Revenue across the three internal services funds is expected to grow as a whole by 7% or roughly $373k.
The City’s Vehicle & Equipment Maintenance fund is budgeted to increase $403k because an analysis of the fund balance in the previous year indicated resources sufficient to decrease participating fund contributions. The decrease was a one-time savings and now costs have returned to “normal”.
The Insurance fund, including liability insurance and worker’s compensation insurance is budgeted to increase $170k due largely to increases in worker’s compensation insurance. With rising costs, the fund must charge the participating funds and departments accordingly. Worker’s compensation insurance is budgeted to increase 29% from $2.1M to $2.7M. The increase in worker’s compensation insurance is offset somewhat by a decrease in liability insurance from $1.5M to $1.1M.
The Management Information Systems fund revenue is budgeted to decrease by $200k reflecting prior year cost savings being passed on to the participating funds and departments. $3.7

Fees and Charges:
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the City experienced revenue losses in the Fees and Charges category. This was largely due to restrictions on gatherings. Programs that usually generate revenue such as the community center, swim center and recreational day camps generated almost no revenue. Losses for this category as a whole however were offset at the all funds level by increases in Water utility rates. With the expected recovery of revenues that were lost due to health and safety restrictions coupled with implemented increases in Water Utility rates, the City expects to realize $4.1M in fiscal year 2022-23. Fiscal year 2023-24 is expected to be flat at approximately $4.3M with no water rate increases scheduled. $3.4 $3.5

Franchise Fees:
Franchise fees are a fee imposed on certain businesses operating within the City. For many years, Cities have defined Franchise Fees as a fee “imposed for entrance or use of local government property, or the purchase, rental, or lease of local government property”. This definition has been challenged, however, in court. The challengers allege that the fee is not a fee at all, but rather a tax. If the courts ultimately decide that the fee is in fact a tax, the City would have two options; 1) Prepare detailed analysis demonstrating the nexus between the amount of the fee and the cost to the city, or 2) Complete a proposition 218 procedure establishing the fee as a tax.
Over the years, franchise fees have been a very steady source of income for the City. As may be seen in the chart, this source of revenue has been essentially flat for the past three years.
The City expect franchise fees to remain flat in fiscal year 2023-24 as well at about $1.9M.
Interfund Transfers In
At the All Funds level, all transfers in have an equal and corresponding transfer out which is shown as an expenditure. Therefore, at the All Funds level, all transfers net to zero. A majority of the City’s interfund transfers involve funding of capital projects, whether from grant funds, special revenue funds, capital reserves or operating funds.

ALL FUNDS – EXPENDITURE DISCUSSION
The FY 2023-24 Budget proposes appropriations totaling $79M when Internal Service Funds and Fiduciary Fund are included in the total and $70.7M when these items are excluded. The budget includes a robust capital improvement budget ($14.8M) with much of the financing coming from grants and special revenue funds ($7.9M).
Discussion of Significant Variances - Expenditures by Function/Program Overall, many departments/functions will continue to see steep increases on a year over year basis in fiscal year 2023-24 as compared to fiscal year 2022-23. This is due to the fact that the City cut its workforce in fiscal year 2020-21 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Fiscal year 2021-22 saw the City begin to reverse those cuts as the City again ramped up its workforce and the effort continued in fiscal year 2022-23. Personnel turnover has unfortunately offset many of the City’s recruiting successes. The effort to rebuild the workforce therefore will continue into fiscal year 2023-24.
It is important to keep in mind that at the “all funds” level, the various departments may manage expenditures in other funds in addition to the general fund. To avoid repetition, variances for departments that only manage general funds are discussed later in the general fund section of the budget document. Discussion of the variances for the Legislative Body, City Manager’s Office, City Clerk’s Office, Building Department, City Attorney’s Office, Police Department, and Fire Department may be found in the General Fund Expenditures by Function/Program section of the budget.
Community, Housing & Economic Development is expected to decrease 43% or $2.3M in FY 2023-24. The year over year decrease is largely due to two property purchases in fiscal year Budget Comparison by Budget Year

2022-23. First was the purchase of 1271 Canyon Del Rey for $1.6M. The second purchase was for 1579 & 1583 Del Monte Blvd for $1.2M. On the other hand, personnel services are projected to increase $217k as this department continues to rebuild its workforce and the City agreed to a 4% cost of living adjustment for the upcoming year. Lastly, the CalHome ADU grant has been re-budgeted and is expected to get under way in the coming year. Personnel turnover in the crucial Housing Manager position has caused a delay in this program.
Human Resources & Risk Management is slated to remain flat with a small decrease of $19k.
Of note, worker’s compensation insurance is slated to increase $362k. On the other hand, personnel services are budgeted to decrease $80k with the freezing of the Risk Management Technician position. The remainder of the variance comes from the fluctuation in central service charges. The City’s cost allocation plan is based on actual costs one year in arrears. This arrearage often causes a disconnect between allocated costs and current budget requests.
The Finance Department is budgeted to decrease 3% or $117k in FY 2023-24. Decreases are due to cost allocation plan fluctuations ($164k) and a reduction in software cost with a delay to the purchase of city-wide budgeting software ($70k). Additionally, the IT department (which is managed by the Finance Department at the all funds level will decrease by $24k largely due to the successful roll out of new servers in fiscal year 2022-23. Lastly the City’s Pension Obligation Bond payment will decrease by $37k according to the predetermined amortization schedule.
Offsetting increases include personnel cost increases ($154k) due to the department nearing full staff and the previously mentioned cost of living adjustment.
Public Works/Engineering expenditures are budgeted to increase by 21% or $5.4M in FY 2023-24 due to several factors. Capital spending can be irregular due to project timing and funding availability. Overall, capital outlay will decrease $1.7M on a year over year basis. Capital spending is budgeted to decrease in the following categories; Storm water ($1.3M), Parks ($850k), Government Facilities ($1.8M) and Sanitation District ($139k). Contrastingly, Street projects are budgeted to increase by $2M and grant funded FORA projects are budgeted to increase $5.8M. On the operating side, personnel costs are expected to increase $453k as the department ramps back up. Lastly, purchase of recycled water for use on the City golf course is budgeted at $1.1M.
Recreation expenditures are budgeted to increase by $359k or 6% in FY 2023-24. Personnel costs are projected to increase $288k on a year over year basis as the department continues to rebuild and cost of living adjustments take effect. Cost allocation plan fluctuations will increase $296k. Additionally internal charges for insurance, computer support and fleet support will decline $72k.
The Community Social Services grant has been reduced by $80k but is still funded at $420k as well as grants for outside entity internship programs at $50k.

Discussion of Significant Variances - Expenditures by Category The Personnel Services category is budgeted to increase 7% or $2.4M in FY 2023-24. As mentioned previously, the City agreed to 4% cost of living adjustments for all of the labor groups.
Salaries and overtime are budgeted to increase $1M. Normally, with the increase in base pay, the City would also expect a corresponding increase in pension costs. Since unfunded liabilities are calculated using prior year data, however, this is a rare time when PERS costs are budgeted to decrease ($241k). This is due to exceptionally strong CalPERS investment returns in 2021.
The respite is likely to be short lived however since the positive investment returns of 2021 will be offset with investment losses in 2022. Healthcare cost are projected to increase 7% ($98k) As was mentioned previously, Worker’s Compensation Insurance is budgeted to increase $600k.
Despite ongoing efforts, the City currently has approximately 30 vacant positions. In an effort to present Council with a balanced proposed budget, several positions were frozen; 1 Risk Manager, 1 Senior Administrative Assistant, 1 Senior Civil Engineer and 1 Deputy Police Chief.
On the other hand, staff proposes 1 new Firefighter – to be substantially funded with a reduction in Fire Department overtime.
The Services & Supplies category is budgeted to increase 15% or $3M in FY 2023-24. $4M of the variance is due to the FORA Blight Removal. Also related to FORA is the scheduled Eucalyptus repair ($1.1M) and various ESCA projects ($1M). Another notable increase is the budget for the Neighborhood Improvement Commission (NIC) ($254k). The NIC budget is based on 50% of projected short term rental TOT. Also increasing is the cost of watering the City golf course using recycled water ($940k). The proposed budget includes a decrease of $2.7M in one-time property purchases. Additionally the City’s Municipal Water System undertook a $1.5M project for the planning and design work related to a new potable water well in fiscal year 2022-
23. No such project is budgeted in fiscal year 2023-24.

Fund Summaries
General Fund:
A detailed summary of the general fund is provided in a later section of the budget.
Other Funds:
The City’s budget document contains sections that provide fund summaries for funds other than the general fund. Please refer to the Enterprise Funds section, the Special Revenue Funds section, and the Internal Service Funds section for summaries of other funds.
Fee Schedule:
Presented in the budget is an updated annual fee schedule for Council approval. Several years back the City hired a consultant to conduct an in depth fee study. The study set fees at a level to allow the City to recover its cost of providing each specific service. In the years since the study was conducted, fees have been increased annually at amount equal to the change in the consumer price index (CPI). This year the change in CPI is 3.6%.
Because it has been several years since the last study was conducted, staff recommends that the City again undertake an in depth fee study at some point in the next few years.

OVERVIEW
The City of Seaside’s fiscal year (FY) 2023-24 General Fund operating appropriations budget (including transfers) is proposed at $46M. Core city services such as police, fire, community development, park maintenance, and recreation are budgeted in the General Fund. General Fund resources are closely linked to economic and development activity in the City and expenditures fund essential front line and “quality of life” services that our citizens expect.
The FY 2022-23 budget is showing a $227.6k operating surplus. In addition, the City’s general fund will fund $5.6M of capital projects using existing fund balance.
Although staff is pleased to propose a balanced General Fund budget for FY 2023-24, it is always important that the City continue enhancing General Fund revenue streams and containing costs. Cost pressure is likely due to persistent inflation in the national economy.
Additional cost pressure will continue on the City’s General Fund due to substantial pension cost increases, which are expected to continue beyond FY 2023-24 as a result of CalPERS lowering the actuarial discount rate for their investment portfolio and changing actuarial assumptions regarding mortality. A five-year forecast is presented in a later section of the budget.
GENERAL FUND - FUND BALANCE
The year-end General Fund balance for FY 2014-15 through FY 2023-24 is shown below.
General Fund balance has been steadily increasing as shown in the graph. The spike in fund balance in fiscal year 2021-22 was largely driven by American Rescue Plan Act revenue backfill.
The decline in fiscal year 2022-23 is the result of multiple transactions, including various capital improvement projects at a cost of over $7.5M and the purchase of two properties at a cost of $2.8M. The balance is expected to decrease approximately $5.6M in FY 2023-24 due to funding of capital projects with use of fund balance.

GENERAL FUND RESERVES
The City’s General Fund reserves are established in accordance with the “Fiscal Policies” which are intended to ensure the continued financial well-being of the City by planning for unanticipated emergency and contingency needs. The City Council annually reviews and updates the reserve policies and budgeted reserve funds to ensure that the City has sufficient resources to adequately address emergencies, economic uncertainties, unforeseen operating or capital needs, economic development opportunities, and cash flow requirements. The FY 2023-24 budget commits fund balance in the General Fund to the following reserves:
• $2.3M to the Capital Reserve
• $4.6M to the Special Reserve
• $6.9M to the Emergency Reserve
As shown below, the General Fund’s “unassigned fund balance” in FY 2023-24 is estimated at about $2.2M.

GENERAL FUND REVENUE
Seaside’s General Fund is reliant on sales tax, transaction tax, Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT), property tax, utility user’s tax, marijuana receipts tax and fees charged for services rendered to fund operations. As discussed in detail below, General Fund revenues are expected to increase modestly in FY 2023-24 with the total annual revenue projected at $46.3M, a 1% year over year increase.
Taxes remain the largest resource supporting General Fund operations in the FY 2023-24 Operating Budget. Taxes represent 90% of all General Fund revenues with the primary taxes comprised of sales and use tax, transaction tax, and property tax.
Other revenue sources include licenses and permits, fees and charges, fines and forfeitures, grant revenue, reimbursements and income from investments (including one-time land sales).
There are no funds budgeted to be transferred in to the general fund from other funds for fiscal year 2023-24.

Discussion of Significant General Fund Revenue Sources
Property Tax
Over the last few years, the City of Seaside has seen a steady increase in property tax receipts.
In recent years, sales prices and number of sales have increased. FY 2022-23 is showing an increase in this revenue source of $556k or 6% over the previous fiscal year.
Although mortgage interest rates have rapidly increased, a short supply of housing inventory has led to home values remaining elevated. Homes which were sold at a higher value the last few years result in taxable valuation increases. Thus far, the market has declined in the number of sales, but not necessarily in the price of the properties sold. Additionally, as the recognized obligations of the previous Redevelopment Agency are paid down or settled, more property tax becomes available for excess distribution.
Overall, property tax revenues are expected to increase 4% in FY 2023-24 to $11M (including the Vehicle License in Lieu Fee). While still solid growth, the rate of increase appears to be flattening. With home prices remaining elevated, however, affordable housing remains problematic in the community.

Sales, Use & Transaction Tax
Sales tax revenues include the City’s 1 cent general sales tax as well as a 1 cent transaction tax approved by the voters in 2008 (Measure R) and a ½ cent transaction tax approved by the voters in 2017 (Measure L). Based on an analysis of trends in year-to-date tax receipts, macroeconomic conditions and an examination of local business data, it is anticipated that the City will receive sales tax revenue of $20.3M in FY 2022-23 and $20.2M in FY 2023-24.
Sales and Use Tax projections are provided to the City by Hdl, which is a revenue enhancement consultant used widely by Cities throughout California.
The City’s sales and use tax has outperformed budget in FY 2022-23 predominantly in the areas of auto sales, cannabis retail and online sales. The City also saw strong results in the areas of Building and Construction and Food and Drugs and in its share of County aggregated online sales tax. This fiscal year also saw gas prices recover and then increase to pre-pandemic levels so that this sector of sales tax increased significantly. Although the City saw nearly two years for very strong sales tax growth, ad can be seen the rate of growth will flatten out in FY 2023-
24. With persistent inflation driving prices up, it could be presumed that sales tax revenue will increase. On the other hand, if persistent inflation leads to lower spending by consumers, those gains may be offset.

Transient Occupancy Tax
Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) is a local tax that is applied to the cost of hotel or other lodging stays of less than 30 days. The City’s TOT rate is 12% and is a revenue source solely for the General Fund. TOT is collected by the City’s 13 lodging establishments and remitted to the City on a monthly basis. Factors influencing TOT revenues include vacancy rates, changes in business and leisure travel, new hotels, hotel expansion, and room rate increases. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic can be plainly seen in the historical chart presented above with revenues dropping steeply in FY 2019-20 and FY 2020-21. The outlook for the hospitality sector began to improve in FY 2021-22 with reduced restrictions on travel and gatherings. With the pandemic now moving to an endemic phase, the City expects TOT receipts to grow again in FY 2023-24 although at a slower rate.
Based on year-to-date receipts, FY 2022-23 year-end TOT revenues are projected to be approximately $4.4M. Staff is projecting a 3% increase to $4.6M in TOT revenue for FY 2023-

Utility User Tax
Over the years, the City’s Utility User’s Tax has been a stable source of revenue. FY 2022-23 may see an increase of $178k or 6% on a year over year basis. The increase is due to increasing utility rates and an improved ability to pay on the part of customers as they transition out of the pandemic. The City is forecasting a 4% increase in FY 2023-24.
Marijuana Receipts Tax
The Marijuana Receipts Tax was a new tax revenue for the City beginning in FY 2019-20. The first two years were clearly growth years as the local operators first got under way. This revenue source has leveled out and appears to produce approximately $1.2M on a consistent basis. The City is projecting a slight decrease of 1%.

GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES
General Fund expenditures (excluding transfers-out and administrative allocations) in FY 2022- 23 are projected at $48.4M. Expenditures are proposed to decrease to $46.5M in FY 2023-24.
Overall, the General Fund appropriations budget is proposed to decrease $1.9M or 4% over the previous fiscal year. When transfers-out and administrative allocations are included, the City budget is approximately $51.7M. Transfers out are comprised of $5.6M in Capital Improvement Program funding and $1.8M in operating transfers. Specific details of expenditures are presented in the Department Details sections of the Budget.
Discussion of Significant Variances - Expenditures by Function/Program The Legislative Body is budgeted to increase 41% or $261k in FY 2023-24. One significant budget increase is the Neighborhood Improvement Committee budget, which is forecast to be $403k, which is $254k higher than the previous year. The NIC budget is estimated at 50% of the City’s short term rental transient occupancy tax. As of the writing of this document, the NIC has not provided recommendations to the Council for the use of these funds. Another increase is a budget request for a Lobbyist to represent the City. The budgeted amount is $25k. One notable decrease is the Fireworks Event being moved from the Council budget to the Recreation department budget ($15k).
The City Manager’s office is expected to increase 22% or $256k in FY 2023-24. Personnel costs are budgeted to increase $244k and includes the addition of a Project Manager as well as cost of living adjustment for current staff. The line item for Community Relations is budgeted to increase $25k from $42k to $68k and includes funds to support the City’s Sister City program, increased communications consulting support and miscellaneous city promotion.

are offset by decreases in the liability insurance allocation and the IT Internal Service fund allocation.
The Police Department is budgeted to increase $441k or 3%. Nearly all of the variance may be attributed to personnel costs, which are expected to increase by $431k as the department continues to rebuild its police force and cost of living adjustments take effect. It should be noted that the Police Department continues to struggle filling vacancies. These struggles are by no means unique to the City of Seaside. Police Departments throughout the state and the nation continue to struggle filling vacancies. The fiscal year budget includes amounts for the following vacant positions: Seven Police Officers, one Animal Care Specialist, one Administrative Analyst, one Records Technician and one Police Services Specialist. At Council direction, $10k was added to the Police Department for the SNIP program (spay and neuter services). In an effort to present the Council with a balanced budget, the Police Department opted to freeze the Deputy Chief position.
The Fire Department is budgeted to decrease $195k or 2%. Personnel costs are expected to increase by $65k as cost of living adjustments take effect. The increase in personnel cost is relatively low even while reflecting the Department’s plan to add an additional Firefighter. The addition of one more Firefighter has allowed the department to reduce its overtime budget significantly ($253k). The department is confident that with the additional Firefighter, overtime cost can be reduced on an ongoing basis. This year, the department expects to have an increased budget for contract services ($76k) related to development permits. This cost, however is offset by reimbursement revenue which will be attributed to the department. Also of note, the department plans to purchase two new incident command vehicles at a cost of $340k.
Significant variances for other departments, such as Community, Housing and Economic Development, Human Resources, Finance, Public Works/Engineering and Recreation, are discussed in the “All Funds” section of the budget.

Discussion of Significant Variances - Expenditures by Category Personnel Services costs are the largest category of expenditures in the General Fund, representing 77% of the expenses for FY 2023-24. Overall, personnel costs will increase $1.1M on a year over year basis or 3%. The adopted fiscal year 2022-23 budget continued reversing cuts made in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Personnel turnover has unfortunately offset many of the City’s recruiting successes. The effort to rebuild the workforce therefore will continue into fiscal year 2023-24. Notable additions of new positions for fiscal year 2023-24 include a Project Manager in the City Manager’s Office and a 10th Firefighter. Positions proposed to be frozen include a Police Deputy Chief and a Risk Management Technician.
The Services & Supplies category is budgeted to decrease 23% or $2.6M in FY 2023-24. The year over year decrease is largely due to two property purchases in fiscal year 2022-23. First was the purchase of 1271 Canyon Del Rey for $1.6M. The second purchase was for 1579 & 1583 Del Monte Blvd for $1.2M. There is no similar purchase planned in fiscal year 2023-24 and therefore the year over year variance. Also, the rental assistance program that was funded by a grant from the United Way, winding down in FY2022-23 and will not continue into FY2023-24 ($300k). These decreases were offset by the purchase of recycled water for use on the City golf course is budgeted at $1.1M and an increase in the appropriation for the Neighborhood Improvement Commission ($254k).
The Capital Outlay-Projects category is budgeted to decrease 29% or $371k in FY 2023-24.
Capital spending can be irregular due to project timing and funding availability. Although the Fire Department plans to buy two Command Vehicles at a cost of $340k, this is a reduction ($332k) in capital spending as compared to the previous year. Also the Police Department purchased a parking control vehicle in fiscal year 2022-23 at a cost of $80k. With no similar purchase budgeted in fiscal year 2023-24 the department shows a budget decrease for capital outlay.
Transfers-Out are budgeted at $7.5M. Transfers out are comprised of $5.6M in Capital Improvement Program funding and $1.8M in operating transfers. The proposed funding source for the general fund CIP costs in FY 2023-24 is from fund balance. For a complete list of capital improvement projects see the Capital Improvement (CIP) section of the budget.

City of Seaside FY 2023-24 Proposed Budget

Long Term Forecast
On the following pages may be found the City’s five year long-term forecast (LTF). The forecast provides 5 years of historical data as context, the projected results for FY 2022-23 and five years of forward looking projections. The LTF was developed at a high level (low level of detail). The City’s major sources of revenue were grouped into categories and projected. Likewise, the City’s major expenditures were grouped into categories and projected. The majority of the assumptions used in the report were based on a five-year historical trend or provided by outside consultants.
Some projections however are based on known payment or increase percentages. Pension costs for example are expected to increase 14% each year for the next four years. This is due to the decreased discount rate adopted by CalPERS. Likewise, the City’s capital costs were input according to the five-year CIP.
The following updates were made to the LTF since the Q2 FY 2023 report was presented:
• FY2022-23 budget amendments were added
• FY2022-23 projected results were updated
• Added trend line for actual Rainy Day Reserves v. Policy Level
OPERATING OUTLOOK
Late in fiscal year 2021-22, the City agreed to three year labor agreements with all labor groups.
This provides more accurate long term forecasting in the area of personnel costs, which is the City’s largest cost. Personnel costs are expected to increase steadily over the next several years, particularly pension costs. One mitigation effort the City has adopted to offset rising pension costs, was establishment of a Section 115 Trust on December 1 of 2022. The initial Trust funding and investment returns are expected to provide a modest $2.86M in pension saving over the next 23 years.
Fire Department personnel costs are expected to push personnel costs up significantly in FY 2026 as Fire Station #2 is anticipated to come online. Increasing costs will of course also result in increased rainy day reserve levels.
Overall, operating results are expected to produce small increases over the next few years.
Those surpluses, however are not large enough to support the current level of capital spending, while at the same time increasing the balance in the City’s 115 Pension Trust and keeping pace with increased rainy day reserve levels.
The City Council has appropriated or committed various and significant amounts of fund balance in the first half of fiscal year 2022-23. Those amounts are reflected in the long term forecast in terms of decreasing “unassigned” fund balance.
DEVELOPMENT OUTLOOK
Three notable development projects are expected to increase City costs for services and infrastructure, as well as generating revenue; Seaside Resort Development, Campus Town and Packet Page 593
BUDGET SUMMARY – GENERAL FUND
City of Seaside FY 2023-24 Proposed Budget
Page | 70
Main Gate. All three of the projects are expected to increase sales tax and property tax. The Seaside Resort Development and Campus Town Project will also generate significant transient occupancy taxes. The long term forecast uses results of Fiscal Impact Analyses (prepared by outside consultants) where possible and nets revenue and expense so as to make the net effect easier to discern. The City is committed to seeing these projects through and the fiscal impact for the City’s operations is likely to be a net positive.
OVERALL OUTLOOK
The LTF indicates that the City may be in a good financial position for the next five years.
Substantial capital outlays and other transactions over the course of fiscal year 2023 and proposed for fiscal year 2024 have far outpaced assumptions used in the long term forecast.
The net result is that years 2025 thru 2028 are showing a negative unassigned fund balance.
Negative fund balance equates to the amount by which the City’s rainy day reserves are below policy levels (see the red trend line in the LTF chart). To avoid dipping below Rainy Day policy levels, the City will have to prioritize spending and make challenging choices over the next few years.

Who We Are:
The Economic Development stimulates business and development activity, to provide employment and tax revenue opportunities for Seaside. Community development aligns land use policies to meet the needs of the community. CDBG federal grant funds are utilized for public service, eligible capital projects, and new as of 2020, to help the community respond to COVID. Housing works with developers on affordable housing issues, promotes ADUs and other affordable housing programs, as well as rental assistance programs.
Fiscal Year 2023 Accomplishments and Fiscal Year 2024 Goals:
Notable accomplishments achieved during Fiscal Year 2023 include convening the Seaside Housing Collaborative, initiating implementation of the CalHome ADU Loan Program, commencing the disbursement of the last round of Emergency Rental and Utility Assistance Program funds, and increasing the Housing Division’s capacity by hiring a Housing Program Manager.
Fiscal Year 2024’s strategic goals include the completion of the City’s 2023-2031 Housing Element along with robust community engagement. The Housing Division also looks forward to issuing ten CalHome ADU Loans to ten qualifying households for the production or rehabilitation of ten ADUs.

Plan Reviews Building Inspections Code Enforcement
Who We Are:
Building & Code Enforcement’s primary responsibility is to protect the health, safety and general welfare of all Seaside residents and visitors. Our approach reflects a fundamental respect for individuals and property rights.
The Department oversees adherence to all applicable building codes and regulations in order to ensure the safe occupancy of all residential and commercial structures within the City of Seaside. The permitting, plan review and inspection process helps us ensure the health, safety and well-being of all who visit, and live in our community.
Code Enforcement is responsible for responding and abating code violations. Unabated violations can pose serious threats to public safety. To help prevent and minimize the effects of structure fires and other hazards, our Code Specialists strive to educate persons about regulations and provide options to remedy code violations. Where abatement of a public nuisance or other violations cannot be achievable through voluntary compliance, our staff is required to heighten enforcement strategies to abate the nuisance through legal remedies.
Fiscal Year 2023 Accomplishments and Fiscal Year 2024 Goals:
Fiscal year 2023 has been very active for the Building & Code Enforcement Department. To date, 564 permits were issued and 2,124 field inspections completed. The city’s newest residential development, “The Enclave”, situated on the Bayonet & Blackhorse Golf Course is 75% completed. The department has gained a Community Enhancement Specialist, who proactively seeks unsightly or unsafe conditions throughout Seaside. Enforcement staff continues to engage with community members in seeking voluntary compliance. To date, Code Enforcement has opened 616 new cases and resolved 402 of them. In addition, new Code Enforcement Safety Standards were implemented.
The Building Department currently has vacancies in administrative and inspection staff. A priority for fiscal year 2024 is to be fully staffed to better serve our community. As education is fundamental to staff efficiency and effectiveness, more training & certification opportunities will be provided in fiscal year 2024.

Who We Are:
As the most visible symbol of government, the Seaside Police Department provides ethical, procedurally just, and compassionate law enforcement services through the highest standards of performance and conduct. We remain one of the most progressive and innovative police organizations in our region. Our motto is TRUST: Transparency, Respect, Unity, Service & Training.
Fiscal Year 2023 Accomplishments and Fiscal Year 2024 Goals:
This past fiscal year, the Seaside Police Department fully staffed our parking enforcement team, and most recently, filled our Animal Control Officer position. We increased our traffic enforcement and parking violation efforts substantially. Most notable, we decreased overall crime in Seaside by 13%. We also launched our Lights On program to enhance community relations and trust.
Strategic goals for fiscal year 2024 include: establishing a youth explorer/mentoring program. Establish a traffic enforcement team. Establish a citizens’ police academy hosted in English and Spanish. Reduce illegal fireworks activity.
