CITY OF SEASIDE
STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 7.B.
TO: City Council
FROM: Jaime M. Fontes, City Manager
BY: Haroon Noori, Administrative Analyst II
DATE: August 3, 2023
SUBJECT: RECEIVE AN UPDATE ON THE SHORT-TERM RENTAL (STR)
PROGRAM (ADMINISTRATIVE ANALYST II, HAROON NOORI)
RECOMMENDATION
Receive an update on the Short-Term Rental (STR) Program.
BACKGROUND
On November 17, 2022, the Seaside City Council approved significant changes to the Short-Term Rental regulations affecting both existing and prospective Short-Term Rental (STR) License holders. A summary of these changes is included in Attachment A.
DISCUSSION:
Following the effective date of the ordinance, City staff has completed several key milestones, which are summarized below:
FY22/23 STR License Renewals (Special Renewal Process)
Immediately following adoption of the new Ordinance, City staff updated the STR program webpage with relevant information and created new streamlined online forms in anticipation of the special STR license renewal process following the effective date of the new ordinance. City staff also began STR program data migration from Host Compliance to iWorQ. The set up and implementation of iWorQ was completed prior to the effective date of the new ordinance.
On December 16, 2022, when the new ordinance took effect, City staff emailed and mailed the first STR license renewal notices (Attachment B) to 87 STR license holders requiring them to renew their STR license(s) by January 31, 2023. License and address information for these 87 Licensees was derived from Host Compliance.
Packet Page 22
Item No. 7.B. Page 2 of 4
To achieve 100% renewal rate, City staff engaged in constant communication with each STR license holder and sent out second and final STR license renewal notices on 1/10/23 and 1/25/23 respectively.
The special renewal process required STR License holders to submit an online application and upload relevant required supporting documentation. For example, Host License holders were required to upload residency documents so that staff could verify owner occupancy of the STR unit. All license holders were required to submit a single application per STR unit/license. Additionally, some STR owners who were renting out more than one unit with just one license were required to submit a new application and procure a separate STR license for each additional unit/room.
Applications received and deemed complete were then entered into iWorQ. City staff assessed fees based on most recent payments received by the City. Fees included past due fees as well as prorated fee amounts for the remainder of fiscal year 2022-2023.
City staff then emailed each STR license holder their invoice and a link to pay online.
Fees, which were prorated, included the following:
• $250: Short-Term Rental License Renewal Fee
• $250: Late Fee
• $17: Business License Application Fee
• $4: CASp (CA Senate Bill #1186) Fee
• $37.50: Business Operations Tax if projected annual short-term rental income is less than $25,000 (plus $9 for each additional $5,000 income in excess of $25,000).
The special STR license renewal process concluded on January 31, 2023. A summary of the number of licenses renewed and fees collected is provided in the table below:
FY22/23 STR License Renewal Summary
Type of License Number of Licenses Renewed
Hosted 11
Non-Hosted 61
New STR License Applications
Adoption of the new ordinance sparked increased interest among property owners for obtaining non-hosted STR licenses due to the new license cap and density requirements. All new potential applicants were advised that the City would begin accepting new applications after existing licenses were renewed. This policy was implemented in order to avoid potential over-density of STR’s. All interested parties were able to add their names to an interest list using an online form.
Packet Page 23
Item No. 7.B. Page 3 of 4
After the FY22/23 STR license renewal process was concluded, City staff created new forms and updated the STR webpage with relevant information and guidelines for new applicants. City staff also sent out a notice (Attachment C) to all potential applicants on the interest list.
To better facilitate the initial surge of new applications, City staff began accepting new applications on Friday, March 3, 2023, starting at 8:30am. All applicants were advised to submit application packets in person at City Hall. Applications were received and processed on a first-come, first-serve basis. Applicants were charged prorated fees through June 30, 2023.
On March 3, 2023 alone, City staff received 18 new applications for Non-Hosted STR licenses. Since then, the City has received and approved an additional 7 non-hosted and 3 hosted STR license applications.
FY23/24 STR License Renewals
On May 11, 2023, City staff sent out (by mail and email) STR license renewal notices (Attachment D) for fiscal year 2023-2024. Similar to the special renewal process at the beginning of 2023, updated renewal forms and guidelines were made available on the website.
All STR owners whose licenses were issued prior to 2023 were required to have the Building Inspection forms completed by either a licensed general contractor or a certified home inspector. Additionally, the same STR owners were not required to pay the $250 annual fee as part of their FY23/24 STR license renewal; direction was given to staff to apply previously collected late payments of $250 toward this renewal as a one-time offer.
New applicants whose licenses were issued in late April/beginning of May were not required to submit a renewal application or FY2023-2024; however, they were all required pay FY2023-2024 STR license renewal fees.
The special STR license renewal process concluded on June 30, 2023. A summary of the total number of existing licenses is provided in the table below:
FY23/24 STR License Summary
Type of License Number of Licenses
Hosted 13
Non-Hosted 86
Current State of the STR program and Next Steps
Packet Page 24
Item No. 7.B. Page 4 of 4
There are currently 86 Non-Hosted STR licenses (only 4 licenses are left under the 90- cap limit as of July 24, 2023) and 13 Hosted STR licenses active and in good standing.
Since the City has now wrapped the FY23/24 STR license renewals, City staff intend to shift focus to vigorously pursuing and investigating unlicensed short-term rentals.
As of July 16, 2023, there are an estimated 44 illegal short-term rentals in the City. STR program staff are working with Code Enforcement to send out violation notices in July/beginning of August 2023. Illegal STR operators will be required to cease and desist operations until full compliance is achieved. In the event of full compliance, only eligible properties may be considered for license issuance or the waiting list.
City staff may also revisit the Host Compliance contract and explore alternative cheaper options through an RFP process.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City received $699,616.65 in Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) revenue in FY21/22.
The projected collections for FY 22/23 are $790,116.03. The actual amount will be known when the year-end audit is complete. In FY22/23, the City also received an additional $51,845 in STR renewal fees.

Submit your STR license renewal application using one of the following links (as applicable to your STR license type) or scan the QR code to access the online form. Only a single application can be submitted per each STR license. Failure to renew your license by 1/31/2023 will result in license cancellation.

The City will also be enforcing the grounds for non-renewal. So, to be ready for your 2023 STR License renewal, be sure to review the grounds for non-renewal, stay current on TOT payments, have sufficient documented stays, and most importantly have no record of any complaints against the STR.

Program Description
The Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), a voluntary program created by statute, began in 1977 as an investment alternative for California's local governments and special districts and it continues today under Treasurer Fiona Ma's administration. The enabling legislation for the LAIF is Section 16429.1 et seq. of the California Government Code.
This program offers local agencies the opportunity to participate in a major portfolio, which invests hundreds of millions of dollars, using the investment expertise of the State Treasurer's Office professional investment staff at no additional cost to the taxpayer.
The LAIF is part of the Pooled Money Investment Account (PMIA). The PMIA began in 1955 and oversight is provided by the Pooled Money Investment Board (PMIB) and an in-house Investment Committee. The PMIB members are the State Treasurer, Director of Finance, and State Controller.
The Local Investment Advisory Board (LIAB) provides oversight for LAIF. The Board consists of five members as designated by statute. The State Treasurer, as Chair, or her designated representative, appoints two members qualified by training and experience in the field of investment or finance, and two members who are treasurers, finance or fiscal officers or business managers employed by any county, city or local district or municipal corporation of this state. The term of each appointment is two years or at the pleasure of the Treasurer.
All securities are purchased under the authority of Government Code Section 16430 and 16480.4. The State Treasurer's Office takes delivery of all securities purchased on a delivery versus payment basis using a third party custodian. All investments are purchased at market and a market valuation is conducted monthly.
Additionally, the PMIA has Policies, Goals and Objectives for the portfolio to make certain that our goals of Safety, Liquidity and Yield are not jeopardized and that prudent management prevails. These policies are formulated by Investment Division staff and reviewed by both the PMIB and the LIAB on an annual basis.
The State Treasurer's Office is audited by the Bureau of State Audits on an annual basis and the resulting opinion is posted to the State Treasurer’s Office website following its publication. The Bureau of State Audits also has a continuing audit process throughout the year. All investments and LAIF claims are audited on a daily basis by the State Controller's Office as well as an internal audit process.
Under Federal Law, the State of California cannot declare bankruptcy, thereby allowing the Government Code Section 16429.3 to stand. This Section states that "moneys placed with the Treasurer for deposit in the LAIF by cities, counties, special districts, nonprofit corporations, or qualified quasi-governmental agencies shall not be subject to either of the following: (a) transfer or loan pursuant to Sections 16310, 16312, or 16313, or (b) impoundment or seizure by any state official or state agency." During the 2002 legislative session, California Government Code Section 16429.4 was added to the LAIF's enabling legislation. This Section states that "the right of a city, county, city and county, special district, nonprofit corporation, or qualified quasi-governmental agency to withdraw its deposited moneys from the LAIF, upon demand, may not be altered, impaired, or denied in any way, by any state official or state agency based upon the state's failure to adopt a State Budget by July 1 of each new fiscal year." The LAIF has grown from 293 participants and $468 million in 1977 to 2,362 participants and $26.7 billion at the end of December 2019.

Community Partnership for Youth is requesting a $3,000.00 donation from the Mayor's Youth Fund to help cover the cost associated with their summer program. They will use the funds for instructional, art, art supplies as well as transportation costs. Community Partnership for Youth provides many services to at risk youth in Seaside, including homework support, reading assistance, one-on-one mentorship, and life-skills guidance, along with other enrichment activities. By working daily with individual students, mentor- tutors come to understand the often-complex needs and learning styles of each child. This summer, they plan to build on the successes they have had with their students. Activities with Kids Eat Right (Montage Health), MY Museum, The Wahine Project, Sea Star Horse Sanctuary, Soccer and Football Camps, Bike Rodeo with Fire and Police, and Del Monte Conservatory will all be implemented to expose their students to opportunities they would not otherwise have.
Recycling and teaching their students to care for their environment has always been a part of their culture. Maintaining the cleanliness of the Juan Cabrillo Campus and Ord Terrance Campus gardens will be a priority of their "Planet Rangers". This club was formed years ago to instill pride in the community and surroundings.

DATE: August 3, 2023
SUBJECT: ACCEPT DONATION FROM FORMER POLICE CHIEF, ANTHONY SOLLECITO, OF REPLICA SEASIDE PD 1970 "MERCURY
MONTEREY" POLICE CAR TO BE USED BY POLICE DEPARTMENT
FOR COMMUNITY OUTREACH
RECOMMENDATION
Accept a donation of a replica 1970 “Mercury Monterey” Seaside Police vehicle and authorize the Police Department to utilize the vehicle in parades and community outreach events.
BACKGROUND
During former Seaside Police Chief, Anthony Sollecito's tenure as Seaside's police chief, he purchased and equipped a 1970 Mercury Monterey vehicle into a replica Seaside Police police car.
The vehicle has only 86,000 miles 53 years later. He did this at his own expense and was authorized to use the vehicle for community events and parades in Seaside. The vehicle has been maintained since his retirement in 2007 and is in good working order. Mr. Sollecito modeled this vehicle after the first police car he drove when he worked as a reserve police officer in Seaside in the 1970's. This historic vehicle was also modeled after the first black and white police car on the Monterey Peninsula. Shortly after Seaside went back to a black and white vehicle, many agencies followed Seaside's lead and have kept their cars black and white for decades later. Having this vehicle will be a historic piece of our history and allow for enhanced community outreach to our residents.

CITY OF SEASIDE
STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.H.
TO: City Council
FROM: Jaime M. Fontes, City Manager
BY: Dan Meewis, Recreation Director
DATE: August 3, 2023
SUBJECT: APPROVE A FEE WAIVER REQUEST FROM CENTRAL COAST
BOMBERS BASEBALL TEAM FOR THE USE OF SOPER FIELD AND
CUTINO PARK
RECOMMENDATION
Approve a request from the Central Coast Bombers for a Fee Waiver of $13,380.50 for the costs associated with the use of Soper Field, and Cutino Park from August 1, 2023, to October 31, 2023.
BACKGROUND
The Central Coast Bombers are requesting a Fee Waiver to use Cutino Park on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday and SoperFfield on Tuesday & Thursday from August 5, 2023 - October 31, 2023. They would help keep up with the field maintenance and ensure that the parks are clean after each use. They will rake, drag, spike, and fill batter boxes as needed. They will also make sure to clean up all of the recycling following each practice and game.
The Central Coast Bombers are a local Seaside organization that is dedicated to serving the youth of our community and providing low or no-cost programs for its participants and their families. Ninety percent of their youth are Seaside residents and the coaches are from Seaside Pony Baseball. The Central Coast Bombers frequently represent Seaside in tournaments around the state and have even played in national tournaments in Cooperstown, New York.In addition to field use rental fees, there are "hard costs" associated with the maintenance of the fields and associated buildings. These costs are included in the fees for field use. However,if the field use fees are waived, the hard costs that the City incurs need to be considered. City staff are required to open and close restrooms at Soper and Cutino fields. The opening of the restrooms during the week is done during regular hours, and custodial staff close the restrooms on Packet Page 113
Item No. 8.H. Page 2 of 2
weeknights, and open/close them on the weekends. There is also the cost of cleaning supplies and the time it takes for staff to clean the restrooms at each of the fields.
During the season there is also increased activity at each of the locations, which equates to more supplies being used on a daily basis.
This is the 4th time that Central Coast Bombers have requested a fee waiver. Staff recommends that the City Council approve the request that the fees be waived for rental and hard costs for the use of Soper field and Cutino Park and require that the organization provide liability coverage.
FISCAL IMPACT
The approximate fees which are applicable to this request are:
Proposed fee waiver fees
Estimated fees for Soper field usage - $5,712.50
Estimated fees for Cutino field usage - $5,928.00
Estimated fees for light usage at Soper & Cutino Fields - $1,267.50 Estimated "hard cost"
Staff hours for both fields - $1,980.00
Restroom Supplies - $1,500.00
TOTAL $13,380.50
Should the City Council approve the request with the staff recommendation to waive all rental fees, the estimated fiscal impact is $13,380.50

Deadline: August 15, 2023
This application to the Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments (AMBAG) is for the Local Suballocation Grant Program, a grant authorized under the Regional Early Action Planning Grants (REAP
2.0) provisions. The REAP 2.0 program was established through AB 140 (July 2021) for transformative and innovative projects that implement a region’s Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS) and help achieve the objectives of more housing and transportation options that reduce reliance on cars. REAP 2.0 builds on actions completed through the REAP 1 grant program but expands the focus by integrating housing and vehicle miles travelled (VMT) reduction, and by allowing for broader planning and implementation investments, including infrastructure investments supporting housing development. This includes accelerating housing production and facilitating compliance with the 6th Cycle of the housing element.
REAP 2.0 is specifically designed to provide Eligible Entities with tools and resources to help implement and advance plans, primarily including Sustainable Communities Strategies (SCS) as part of Regional Transportation Plans to pursue greenhouse gas emission reduction targets through land use and transportation changes.
The REAP 2.0 Program Framework includes three core components:
1. Regional Competitive Grant Program
2. Local Suballocation Grant Program
3. AMBAG SCS Implementation, Technical Assistance, REAP 2.0 Program Development and Administration
This is the application for the REAP 2.0 Local Suballocation Grant Program. The Local Suballocation Grant Program sets aside $2,625,000 for jurisdictions throughout the region for eligible projects which meet all REAP 2.0 goals and objectives. The goal of this suballocation program is to provide all cities and counties with an opportunity to propose REAP 2.0 eligible projects while allowing for both implementation and planning uses. All projects or programs must achieve all REAP 2.0 goals, objectives, and pass thresholding criteria. Full guidance and requirements for this grant program can be found in the AMBAG REAP 2.0:

8 D. Project Description and Narrative
Access to affordable housing is a pressing concern for the City of Seaside. State law requires that the City plan to accommodate 616 units through the 6th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Allocation, including 86 very low, 55 low, and 156 moderate-income units. To address the community’s housing needs, the City is taking a proactive role in enacting solutions.
The City intends to build affordable housing upon two adjacent, city-owned parcels located at 956 and 962 Hilby Avenue. The parcels are located in an ideal location-- across the street from a bus stop with service connecting to the rest of the Monterey Peninsula, within walking distance to City Hall and downtown, and down the street from a major corridor lined with amenities and services. The site is adjacent to the Oldemeyer Center, a city recreation/community facility that offers programming for seniors and youth, as well as childcare services. Monterey-Salinas Transit connects the site to job centers on the Monterey Peninsula and Salinas through MST Routes A/B and Route 20, and provides connections to jobs in the Santa Cruz area. The parcels are also located within an AMBAG 2045 MTP/SCS existing opportunity area, which indicates that the area is in an urban multimodal community with good access to jobs and services.
The City seeks a maximum REAP 2.0 Local Suballocation Grant of $85,000 to catalyze the housing project’s pre-development as follows:
• $85,000 for Engineering (geotechnical analysis and land survey) and Phase I Architectural The grant funds are an essential component of the project’s execution, fulfilling unmet funding needs and initiating the creation of an affordable housing development. The City will ensure the proposed deliverables are completed on time and will identify qualified consultants to undertake each proposed activity.
Given the parcels’ proximity to transit and services, the proposed project will facilitate the reduction of Vehicle Miles Traveled; inject affordable housing into the City’s housing stock, all while affirmatively furthering fair housing.
According to the 2020 American Community Survey (ACS), the City is 44.8% Latino, 9.7% Asian, and
7.2% Black. There has been a 0.9% decrease in the City’s Black population since 2014. Similarly, the City has seen a reduction in its population of young adults (aged 25-44) and an increase in senior citizens (aged 65 and older). Rising unaffordability is an underlying cause for the shift in demographics and displacement. The proposed project site is located within the Rousch neighborhood, an area with an increasing percentage of housing-cost-burdened households.
Provide a description of the project including a description of the project’s impact on accelerating housing production, affirmatively furthering fair housing, and reducing vehicle miles traveled.
Describe how your project implements the eligible activities indicated in section C. Eligible Activities Checklist. Indicate how your project addresses regional housing issues that affect the Central Coast.
Include whether plans will be adopted. If consultants are used, identify what tasks they will be responsible for. This box will overflow to add additional pages if additional space is needed.

9 The provision of affordable housing throughout the City is essential to combatting displacement and segregation. The proposed activities and the overall housing project meet will facilitate the creation of affordable housing units and expand housing options in an equitable manner.
Please respond to the following questions demonstrating how your project is located in a valid infill area and accelerates infill development (600-word limit):
Explain how the project accelerates infill development near jobs and other key destinations to support housing choice and affordability that effectively reduces VMT and greenhouse gas emissions. “Accelerating Infill Housing Production” or “Accelerating Infill Development, Including Housing” means planning, infrastructure, and other investment and actions that improve the affordability, timing, cost, Packet Page 137

10 feasibility, approval, and amount of Housing development. “Infill”, for the purposes of the REAP 2.0 Program, is defined as the following: Projects within Cities:
Projects comply with REAP 2.0 Program goals and objectives and are in areas within an Existing/Planned Opportunity Area or Potential Opportunity Area as defined by the AMBAG 2045 MTP/SCS (Moving Forward Monterey Bay 2045) AND comply with the State infill definition in the REAP 2.0 Guidelines as detailed below.
Projects within Counties:
Projects comply with REAP 2.0 Program goals and objectives and are within an Existing/Planned Opportunity Area or Potential Opportunity Area as defined by the AMBAG 2045 MTP/SCS (Moving Forward Monterey Bay 2045) AND comply with the State infill definition in the REAP 2.0 Guidelines as detailed below. For more about these areas, see: AMBAG 2045 MTP/SCS.
All Projects:
In addition to the above, all projects must meet the State REAP 2.0 infill definition. The State REAP 2.0 infill definition pursuant to State guidelines provides that:
“Infill”, for the purposes of the REAP 2.0 Program, means areas where all the following apply: (1) the area consists of unused or underutilized lands (2) within existing development patterns (3) that is or will be accessible to destinations and daily services by transit, walking, or bicycling and located in either:
a. An urban center, urban corridor, or area with transit‐supportive densities, or b. An established community that meets all the following criteria:
i. The area consists or previously consisted of qualified urban uses ii. The area is predominantly surrounded (approximately 75 percent of the perimeter) by parcels that are developed or previously developed with qualified urban uses. In counting this, perimeters bordering navigable bodies of water and improved parks shall not be included, and
iii. No parcel within or adjoining the area is classified as agricultural or natural and working lands.
c. Under unique circumstances, applicants may propose an alternative definition of “Infill” subject to approval by the Department and State Collaborative Partners.
Also explain how the project will further the SCS in focusing future development within transit corridors (within ½ mile of transit), actionize the Infill Housing Toolkitfor SCS implementation with densities beyond single family housing preferred, and support other SCS investments.
Include the address(es) of the project area(s), satellite map (Google Maps or similar) of the project site(s) including surrounding parcels so AMBAG can verify that the project is not adjacent to natural or agricultural lands, and is in an appropriate infill site. If a zoning map is available to show the project Packet Page 138

11 location and associated land use designation, that will help assist in confirming the project is in an eligible infill area.
Response:
The proposed activities will take place at two adjacent city-owned sites:
• 956 Hilby Avenue Seaside, CA 93955 (APN 012-371-004-000) o Lot Size: 0.170 acres
• 962 Hilby Avenue Seaside, CA 93955 (APN 012-371-005-000) o Lot Size: 0.170 acres
A map of the project sites and surrounding parcels is included as “Attachment 1”. A zoning map of the parcels is included as “Attachment 2”.
Both parcels are located within an “Existing Opportunity Area” as defined by the AMBAG 2045 MTP/SCS indicating that they are located within an urban multi-modal community with access to jobs and services.
A Monterey-Salinas Transit (MST) bus stop is located across the street. MST Routes A/B and 20 connect the site to job centers throughout the Monterey Peninsula with additional connectivity to job centers in the Santa Cruz area.
The parcels are also underutilized sites, each with a single-family unit, one of which remains boarded, requiring significant repairs. Currently zoned as Medium-density Residential with an allowable 15 units/acre, the sites are slated to be rezoned to Mixed Use Low with an allowable 45 units/acre with a four-story maximum. The City anticipates adopting the zoning code update in early 2024 as part of its General Plan Update. Residential units and a city recreation and community center border the parcels.
The parcels are not adjoined by any areas classified as agricultural or natural and working lands.
The proposed activities will facilitate the development of an affordable multifamily housing, optimize the use of an infill site within ½ mile of transit and will draw upon the principles outlined in the Infill Housing Toolkit.
Please respond to the following questions demonstrating how your projects fulfills each REAP 2.0 objective (200-word limit per response):
1. Explain how the project affirmatively furthers fair housing. “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing”, pursuant to Government Code section 8899.50 means taking meaningful actions, in addition to combating discrimination, that overcome patterns of segregation and foster inclusive communities free from barriers that restrict access to opportunity based on protected characteristics. Specifically, Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing means taking meaningful actions that, taken together, address significant disparities in Housing needs and in access to opportunity, replacing segregated living patterns with truly integrated and balanced living patterns, transforming racially and ethnically concentrated areas of poverty into areas of opportunity, and fostering and maintaining compliance with Civil Rights and Fair Housing Laws.

12 HCD provides an AFFH Data Viewer which may assist the applicant in identifying the project’s AFFH impacts.
Response:
The proposed project site is located within the City’s Rousch neighborhood. In addition to being proximate to transit and services, the Rousch neighborhood presents the opportunity to affirmatively further fair housing.
According to the most recent ACS data, most census tracts within the City have a population with a disability of 10% to 20%. The Rousch neighborhood has a population with a disability of less than 10%. The City’s senior residents are most likely to be affected by disabilities. The City’s Terrace and Cabrillo neighborhoods have the highest concentrations of persons of color. Half of the City’s households are lower income, earning less than 80% of the Area Median Income. The City’s Olympia and Terrace neighborhoods have the highest concentrations of poverty. Moreover, as housing costs continue to increase regionally, ACS data indicates that the percentage of cost burdened households in the Rousch neighborhood have increased from 40% to 60% since 2014, demonstrating a particularly high need for affordable housing in the project area.
The Census data indicates a high concentration of persons of color, lower income households, and persons with disabilities in neighborhoods other than Rousch. This, combined with Rousch’s increasing unaffordability, indicates that an affordable housing development would be appropriate and actively combat segregated living patterns while increasing housing choices within Seaside.
2. Explain how the project reduces Vehicle Miles Travelled (VMT) and is consistent with the AMBAG 2045 MTP/SCS strategies.
Response:
Both 956 and 962 Hilby are located within an AMBAG 2045 MTP/SCS Existing Opportunity Area for the City of Seaside. The parcels are also located across the street from an MST bus stop and within walking distance to existing amenities and services. MST Routes A/B and 20 offer connection to job centers throughout the Monterey Peninsula and connectivity to jobs in the Santa Cruz area. Social services, community based organizations, and healthcare are available within 0.3 miles. The City’s downtown and civic center are located 0.9 and 0.7 miles respectively.
The project will catalyze the creation of high-quality affordable multifamily housing in an area proximate to jobs, daily needs, healthcare, and public transit—thereby reducing Vehicle Miles Traveled.
Its location within an urban multimodal community and an MPT/SCS Opportunity Zone adheres to the 2045 MTP/SCS strategy of focused growth within transit corridors.

13 3. Explain how the project advances compliance with your jurisdiction’s draft 6th Cycle Housing Element.
Response:
The City must accommodate a 6th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Allocation of 616 total units, including 86 very low, 55 low, and 156 moderate income units. The proposed project advances compliance by catalyzing the creation of much-needed affordable housing units while also accounting for the Draft Housing Element’s AFFH Analysis. As outlined in the City’s Draft 6th Cycle Housing Element Technical Appendix, Rousch Neighborhood (where the project site is located) is suitable for affordable housing because of its lack of concentration of persons of color, persons with disabilities and lower income households when compared to other neighborhoods. The demographic shifts outlined in the Housing Element draft likewise reflect the need for affordable housing.
Further, the City’s Draft Housing Element proposes several goals and subsequent policies to promote and facilitate affordable housing. The activities proposed within this application will catalyze the creation of such housing and advance the City’s compliance with its 6th Cycle Housing Element.
4. Explain how the project will result in Transformative Planning and Implementation Activities. “Transformative planning and implementation activities” means housing, planning, infrastructure investments supporting infill housing, and other actions that enable meeting housing goals that also result in per capita vehicle miles traveled reductions, including accelerating infill development, supporting residents through realizing Multimodal Communities, shifting travel behavior through reducing driving, and increasing transit ridership.
Response:
The project will result in “Transformative Planning and Implementation Activities” by initiating the development of an affordable, infill housing project that adheres to REAP 2.0 standards and is located within a 2045 MTP/SCS Existing Opportunity Area. The proposed activities are essential to the success of the project, marking the project’s commencement. Receiving the grant will fulfill unmet funding needs and facilitate the realization of the project.
5. Explain how the project has a Benefit to Disadvantaged and Historically Underserved Communities. “Disadvantaged and Historically Underserved Communities” includes concentrated areas of poverty; Areas of High Segregation and Poverty and areas of low to moderate access to opportunity (TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area Maps); Communities of Concern, Disadvantaged Communities (SB 535 Disadvantaged Communities Map ), and Low-Income Communities pursuant to Senate Bill 535 (De León, Chapter 830, Statutes of 2012) and Assembly Bill 1550 (Gomez, Chapter 369, Statutes of 2016); areas of high Housing cost burdens; areas with high vulnerability of displacement; areas related to Tribal Entities; and other areas experiencing disproportionate impacts of California’s Housing and climate crisis.
Packet Page 141
Regional Early Action Planning Grants 2021 (REAP 2.0)
LOCAL SUBALLOCATION GRANT PROGRAM APPLICATION
14 Response:
The proposed project facilitates the creation of an affordable housing development located in a neighborhood with increasing housing-cost-burden and demonstrated lower concentrations of persons of color, lower income households, and persons with disabilities. Its location increases housing opportunity to the aforementioned communities while actively combatting patterns of segregation.
Finally, the provision of quality, affordable housing in an area with access to transit, jobs, and services provides a concrete benefit to Disadvantaged and Historically Underserved Communities.
6. Explain how your project has Significant Beneficial Impacts? Significant beneficial impacts must lead to substantial changes in land use patterns and travel behaviors. In demonstrating significant beneficial impacts, applicants may consider rates of change (e.g., percent increase over a baseline), the magnitude of impact relative to variables or targets, the proportion of need achieved, and the impact relative to past trends, policies, and practices. Variables or targets may include but are not limited to benefitting households by income group; Regional Housing Needs Assessment; Housing units (new construction, preservation/conservation, and rehabilitation); density; infrastructure; infrastructure capacity and accessibility; public space; community amenities; investments; Vehicle Miles Traveled reduction goals or targets; regional or local equity policies and programs included in an adopted RTP/SCS; and GHG reduction goals or targets.
Response:
The City’s proposed project yields significant beneficial impacts by facilitating the creation of multifamily affordable housing within a census tract experiencing rising housing cost burden. The eventual housing units yielded as a result of the activities proposed in this application will also result in the significant beneficial impact of producing units outlined within the City’s 616-unit Regional Housing Needs Allocation. Finally, under both the current and proposed zoning, the sites are underutilized. The proposed activities will facilitate the development of a multifamily project which more efficiently utilizes the land.
7. Explain how your project Advances California Planning Priorities per Government Code 65041.1.
Response:
The California Planning Priorities outlined in Government Code 650141.1 include the efficient use of land, infill development, protection of environmental and agricultural resources, and redevelopment of underutilized land. The proposed activities advance these goals by facilitating the creation of an affordable, infill housing development upon an underutilized site. The site is located close to transit, in an existing urban area, not surrounded by agricultural or environmental resources, thereby advancing the protection of such areas.

15 9. Explain how the project supports promotion of infill development and equity by rehabilitating, maintains, and improves existing infrastructure that supports infill development and appropriate reuse and redevelopment of previously developed, underutilized land that is presently served by transit, streets, water, sewer, and other essential services, particularly in underserved areas, and to preserve cultural and historic resources
Response:
The proposed project advances infill development and equity. The activities outlined in this application directly precede and facilitate the creation of infill housing in a neighborhood that would benefit underserved communities. As indicated by census data, the project is located in the Rousch neighborhood, an area with lower concentrations of persons of color, persons with disabilities, and lower income households. The project advances the equitable distribution of affordable housing and disrupts patterns of segregation—all functions directly tied to equity. The provision of affordable housing also results in positive community benefits to historically underserved communities. Moreover the project’s location near adequate transit and services, and within an MTP/SCS Existing Opportunity Area directly promotes infill development.
10. Explain how the project supports protection of environmental and agricultural resources by protecting, preserving, and enhancing the state’s most valuable natural resources, including working landscapes such as farm, range, and forest lands, natural lands such as wetlands, watersheds, wildlife habitats, and other wildlands, recreation lands such as parks, trails, greenbelts, and other open space, and landscapes with locally unique features and areas identified by the state as deserving special protection.
Response:
The proposed activities support the protection of environmental and agricultural resources by accomplishing pre-development tasks essential to the creation of an affordable infill housing development. The proposed project concretely meets a community need on an infill site that does not impact agricultural or environmental resources. Moreover, the location’s proximity to public transit and services reduces in Vehicle Miles Traveled, yielding an additional environmental benefit.
11. Explain how the project encourages efficient development patterns by ensuring that any infrastructure associated with development does all of the following (150-word limit per question/sub-question):
a. Uses land efficiently; and
The proposed activities will result in the creation of an affordable housing development that will make more efficient use of the project site. The resulting multifamily development will increase the parcels’ density and community benefit, making better use of an underutilized site. b. Is built adjacent to existing developed areas; and
Packet Page 143

16 The project parcels are currently zoned as Medium-Density Residential. The parcels are surrounded by existing residential structures as well as a city community/recreation facility. c. Explain how the project is located in an area appropriately planned for growth; and The project is currently zoned for Medium-Density Residential (15 units/acre) and is slated to rezoned to Mixed Use Low (45 units/acre) as part of the City’s General Plan Update. The rezone is anticipated to take place early 2024. Under either zoning, the proposed activities lead to the creation of an affordable housing development that is appropriate under the zoning code. Likewise, the project area’s zoning (both present and proposed) appropriately plans for growth of such nature and accommodates such a project. d. How the project location is served by adequate transportation and other essential utilities and services; and
The project area is proximate to public transit provided by Monterey-Salinas Transit (MST). The bus stop across the street from the site provides access to Routes A/B and 20, connecting to the rest of the Monterey Peninsula as well as the Santa Cruz area. The project site already has access to existing utilities—already being served by Greenwaste (waste management), PG&E, and CalAm Water. The City of Seaside is also in the process of implementing water credit projects to increase the availability of water credits for appropriate development projects. Broadband access is also available within the project area, with Xfinity and ATT offering cable and wireless options and affordability plans such as the Affordable Connectivity Plan. As an infill site, the project is connected to City infrastructure. e. Explain how the project minimizes ongoing costs to taxpayers? The proposed activities minimize the ongoing costs to taxpayers by facilitating a quality affordable housing product that will yield community benefit. Displacement and homelessness, two issues inextricably linked to housing unaffordability and unavailability, are both very expensive for local governments to address. The provision of affordable housing is a key aspect in addressing both issues. Access to adequate, safe and affordable housing also yields positive public health and social outcomes, preventing additional impacts to taxpayers.

Patrick Grogan, Associate Engineer
DATE: August 3, 2023
SUBJECT: REVIEW AND TAKE ACTION ON TRAFFIC ADVISORY
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS TO DENY AN ADDITIONAL
DRIVEWAY ON KENNETH AVENUE
RECOMMENDATION
Deny installation of an additional driveway approach at 1240 Kenneth Avenue.
BACKGROUND
This application was first heard by the Traffic Advisory Committee (TAC) at the June 20, 2023 meeting. During this meeting, committee members requested additional information on Seaside Municipal Code section 17.34.120. The committee voted to bring the item back to the TAC for additional discussion during the July meeting. At the July 18, 2023 TAC meeting, the item was reviewed and a recommendation was made by the committee members. A brief summary of the item is presented below.
The property owner of 1240 Kenneth Street requested a second driveway approach, to be located on the north side of the property off of Kenneth Street, to allow parking on the property. He has already paved an area with concrete but has not yet constructed a driveway approach.
Kenneth Street is classified as a residential street, with posted speed limits of 25 miles per hour (mph) and one lane of traffic in the northbound direction. Kenneth Street is approximately 21 ft. wide, measured from face of curb to face of curb, with parallel parking on both sides. No sidewalk is present on the applicants side of the street, but an unpaved area behind the rolled curb is approximately 4 ft wide. 1240 Kenneth Street is a single parcel with one residence and a detached one car garage on the south side of the property. The property has approximately 75 ft of street frontage from Kenneth Packet Page 165
Item No. 8.L. Page 2 of 3
Street, with an existing driveway, with approximately 550 square feet of paved surface area. Off street parking is provided by the one car garage and driveway.
STAFF ANALYSIS
The City of Seaside's Municipal (SMC) code Section 17.34.120 Driveways and Site Access, outlines the requirements for driveways of Single Family Dwellings as follows:
A. Number of driveways. The number and placement of driveways shall be limited as follows; provided, that second driveways or additional curb cuts may be approved by the Traffic Advisory Committee:
1. Single dwellings and duplexes. A single dwelling or duplex shall be allowed one driveway, except that:
a. A circular driveway may be allowed on a parcel with 70 feet or more of street frontage;
and
b. A parcel within the RS-8 or RS-12 zones with a frontage of 200 feet or more may have two separate driveways; provided, that they are separated by a minimum of 100 feet, or lesser distance as approved by the City Engineer based on considerations of site topography and traffic safety.
C. Driveway Spacing. Driveways shall be separated along a street frontage as follows:
1. Single-Family and duplex residential developments. Driveways on abutting properties shall be separated by six feet, unless the City Engineer approves a shared, single driveway. The six-foot separation shall not include the transition or wing sections on each side of the driveway.
The first time TAC reviewed the property owner request was on June 20th. After that meeting and before the next TAC meeting on July 18th, Public Works Engineering staff conducted a review of past City ordinances and discussed shared driveways and driveway approaches with a Traffic Engineer from the City's on-call list for Traffic Engineering. A review of City ordinances pertaining to SMC Title 17 did not reveal any additional information pertaining to the above referenced code sections.
The City's on-call traffic engineer analyzed shared driveway conditions for potential safety and traffic flow concerns as well as several municipal codes from other jurisdictions. The traffic engineer stated that they were not aware of any safety issues that are unique to shared driveways. When reviewing other municipal codes, they also found that a number of other municipalities have similar driveway spacing restrictions to those present in the SMC, but may provide requirements for shared driveway approval which include formalized agreements between property owners, easements, and/or covenants to be recorded with the County Recorder.
Per the above stated code sections, 1240 Kenneth Street is not eligible for a second Packet Page 166
Item No. 8.L. Page 3 of 3
driveway, as its frontage is only 75 feet of the required 200 feet, and the driveway would be located less than 6 feet from the driveway of the abutting property to the north.
Additionally, the approval of this application would remove one public parking spot from Kenneth Street to make room for a new driveway approach, and convert that public street parking spot into a private parking spot in the driveway.
Staff recommended denying the resident's application for an additional driveway off of Kenneth Street, (attachment 1) as the property does not meet the minimum requirements as stated in SMC Section Section 17.34.120. The TAC agreed to the staff's recommendation to deny the resident's application.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this item.

Seaside, CA 93955
Re: Engagement of Legal Services
Dear Ms. Floyd:
Thank you for retaining Sloan Sakai Yeung & Wong LLP (“SSYW”), to perform as needed advice and representation on labor and employment issues, including personnel investigations.
We appreciate the opportunity to serve as your lawyers and look forward to working with you.
This letter sets forth our agreement concerning the legal services we will provide and our fee and expense reimbursement arrangements for those services. Please read this entire agreement before signing and returning it to us.
1. Scope of Engagement. We will provide as needed advice and representation on labor and employment issues, including personnel investigations. Our work is limited to such services.
We will provide legal services for additional matters that you request of us, provided we agree to perform that additional work. A letter confirming such additional work shall bring such work within the scope of this agreement.
2. Fees and Personnel. As compensation for our services, our fees will be based on our current standard billing rate for the personnel performing services under this agreement at the time such services are rendered. Our standard non-profit billing rates for this matter for attorneys, paralegals and legal assistants are attached as Attachment 1.
I will be the partner in charge of your matter. However, this agreement retains the legal services of our law firm and not of a particular attorney. If other attorneys and/or paralegals are assigned to work on your matter, then current hourly rates of those individuals will be utilized. Hourly rates are subject to reasonable change, usually in January of each year.
Packet Page 177
Sandra Floyd
July 27, 2023
3. Billing and Payment Responsibilities. We will send monthly statements which are due within 30 days of receipt. If you have any questions about an invoice, please promptly telephone or write me so that we may discuss these matters. Billing is done in 1/10ths of an hour increments.
In addition, the Firm charges separately for certain costs incurred in the representation, as well as for any disbursements to third parties made on a client’s behalf. Such costs and disbursements include, for example, the following: travel (at the IRS rate in effect at the time the travel occurs), computer-assisted research, transcription, overnight delivery and messenger services. For major disbursements to third parties, invoices may be sent directly to you for payment. The Firm also bills for time spent traveling on a client’s behalf at our normal hourly rates.
4. Termination of Services. You may terminate our services at any time by written notice.
After receiving such notice, we will cease providing services. We will cooperate with you in the orderly transfer of all related files and records to your new counsel.
We may terminate our services at any time with your consent of for good cause. Good cause exists if (a) any statement is not paid within 60 days of its date; (b) you fail to meet any other obligation under this agreement and continue in that failure for 15 days after we send written notice to you; (c) you have misrepresented or failed to disclose materials facts to us, refused to cooperate with us, refused to follow our advice on a material matter, or otherwise made our representation unreasonably difficult; or (d) any other circumstance exists in which ethical rules of the legal profession mandate or permit termination, including situations where a conflict of interest arises. If we terminate our services, you agree to execute a substitution of attorneys promptly and otherwise cooperate in effecting that termination.
Termination of our services, whether by you or by us, will not relieve the obligation to pay for services rendered and costs incurred before our services formally ceased.
5. Insurance. During the term of this agreement, this law firm shall take out and maintain general liability and property damage insurance in the amount of $1,000,000; professional errors and omissions insurance, in an amount of $2,000,000 per occurrence; and $4,000,000 aggregate, which insurance may not be canceled or reduced in required limits of liability unless at least ten days advance written notice be given to you.
6. No Guarantee of Outcome. Any comments made by us about the potential outcome of this matter are expressions of opinion only and are not guarantees or promises about any outcome or results.
Packet Page 178
Sandra Floyd
July 27, 2023
7. Government Law; Venue. This agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.
8. Entire Agreement; Full Understanding; Modifications in Writing. This letter contains our entire agreement about our representation. Any modifications or additions to this letter agreement must be made in writing.
9. Use of “Of Counsel” Independent Contractors. Our firm maintains agreements with experienced “Of Counsel” attorneys who are not employees of SSYW, but are rather considered independent contractors. These Of Counsel attorneys may also practice law separate and apart from SSYW. Of Counsel attorneys are billed at the same rate, and meet the same exceptional performance standards, as comparable attorneys employed by SSYW.
By signing this letter, you are consenting to SSYW’s use of Of Counsel attorneys, if necessary for your representation.
10. Document Retention/Destruction. SSYW is endeavoring to be a “paperless” law firm. To that goal, the Firm attempts to minimize the generation and retention of documents. As a general rule, the Firm does not keep “hard” copies of pleadings, discovery, correspondence, or other documents associated with a project unless there is a need to maintain an original.
Instead, documents are electronically scanned and maintained on the firm’s network system.
If you would like to have hard copies of documents forwarded to you, please let us know.
You will of course have the right to an electronic copy of any document associated with your matter at any time. Once our representation ends for any particular matter, the Firm’s policy is to maintain records for a period of five (5) years. If you wish to obtain a full copy of the Firm’s records for any particular project, we ask that you inform us of that desire at the outset of the project or at its conclusion. Otherwise, any records associated with a particular project will be destroyed after five (5) years.
If the terms of this engagement are acceptable to the City of Seaside and reflect its understanding and agreement, please return an executed copy of this letter. We look forward to working with you.
Sincerely,
Charles Sakai

STATEMENT OF FEE AND BILLING INFORMATION
The following is a general description of our fee and billing policies. These general policies may be modified by the specific engagement letter or agreement to which this summary is attached.
Professional Fees. Our fees for professional services are based on the fair value of the services rendered. To help us determine the value of our services, our attorneys and paralegals maintain time records for each client and matter. Our attorneys and paralegals are assigned hourly rates which are based on years of experience, specialization, training and level of professional attainment. We adjust our rates periodically (usually at the beginning of each year) to take into account inflation and the increased experience of our professional personnel.
To keep professional fees at a minimum, legal work that does not require more experienced attorneys will be performed, where feasible, by attorneys with lower billing rates. Of course, the quality of the work is paramount, and we do not sacrifice quality to economy.
Before undertaking a particular assignment, we will, if requested, provide you with a fee estimate to the extent possible. Estimates are not possible for some matters, however, and cannot be relied on in many others because the scope of our work will not be clear at the outset. When a fee estimate is given, it is only an estimate; it is not a maximum or minimum fee quotation. The actual fee may be more or less than the quoted estimate.
Billing and Payment Procedures. Unless other arrangements are made at the time of the engagement, invoices will be sent monthly. Invoices for outside services exceeding $100 may be billed separately. Occasionally, however, we may defer billing for a given month or months if the accrued fees and costs do not warrant current billing or if other circumstances would make it appropriate to defer billing.
Our invoices contain a brief narrative description of the work performed; if requested, the initials of the attorney who performed the work will appear on the statement. The invoice will include a line item reflecting in-house administrative costs. The firm’s in-house administrative costs include duplicating, facsimile charges, telephone charges, e-mail, postage, mileage and other administrative expenses.
In addition, the Firm charges separately for certain costs incurred in the representation, as well as for any disbursements to third parties made on a client’s behalf. Such costs and disbursements Packet Page 182
Sandra Floyd
July 27, 2023
include, for example, the following: travel (at the IRS rate in effect at the time the travel occurs), computer-assisted research, transcription, overnight delivery and messenger services. For major disbursements to third parties, invoices may be sent directly to you for payment. The Firm also bills for time spent traveling on a client’s behalf at our normal hourly rates.
If you have any questions regarding an invoice, the Billing Coordinator or Accounting Manager is available to answer your questions. For any unresolved matters, the Bar Association has an arbitration mechanism that can be used to resolve such matters.
Late Payments. Statements for services are payable upon presentation, and in all events, within thirty (30) days after receipt. Occasionally, a client has difficulty in making timely payments.
To avoid burdening those clients who pay their statements promptly with the added costs we incur as a result of late payments, a late charge may be assessed on statements not paid within thirty (30) days. The maximum monthly late payment charge will be 1.5% per month. In the unlikely event we are required to institute legal proceedings to collect fees and costs, the prevailing party will be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs of collection.

Item No.: 9.A.
TO: City Council
FROM: Jaime M. Fontes, City Manager
BY: Nisha Patel, Public Works Director/City Engineer
Leslie Llantero, Assistant Engineer
DATE: August 3, 2023
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PLANS AND
SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE 2023 HOT SPOT PAVEMENT REPAIR
PROJECT AND APPROVING A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT
WITH DON CHAPIN COMPANY FOR AN AMOUNT NOT TO
EXCEED $455,613.00 AND A TOTAL PROJECT CONSTRUCTION
COST, INCLUDING 10% CONTINGENCY, OF $501,174.00
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving the plans and specifications for the 2023 Hot Spot Pavement Repair Project (Project) and approving a construction contract to construct the Project for an amount not to exceed $455,613.00 for a total project construction amount, including contingencies, of $501,174.00.
BACKGROUND
On March 2, 2023, the City Council approved the Streets Pavement Rehabilitation Funding Policy (Policy) through proposed modifications to the FY 2022-23 Annual Operating Budget detailed in the Mid-Year Financial Report (Resolution 23-52). The Policy was created to provide additional funding sources for street maintenance and rehabilitation. The Policy provides that at the time of the mid-year budget review, twenty five percent (25%) of any projected year-end operating budget surplus will be committed to the pavement rehabilitation project for the following year. The FY 2022- 23 projected year-end operating surplus is $2.5 million, yielding approximately $614,000 to be committed to this year's pavement rehabilitation project.
The City Council awarded a professional services agreement with Pavement Engineering Inc. (PEI) to design and prepare construction bid documents for the 2023 Hot Spot Pavement Repair Project (Project). The design included field investigation and Packet Page 185
Item No. 9.A. Page 2 of 3
evaluation of pothole locations based upon observations of the Public Works crew, frequently requested locations, and See-Click-Fix reported pothole locations. The evaluation presented a mixture of permanent repair as well as temporary repair options.
The temporary repairs are meant to act as a barrier such that the roadway does not further deteriorate and to act as a stop gap measure until funding is obtained for more appropriate treatment. PEI completed the Project bid documents which includes 4-inch deep 'dig out' pavement repairs totaling 20,723 square feet within 14 area zones and 1- 1/2 inch thin maintenance overlays on four street segments. The latter is intended as a stop-gap measure.
PEI completed the construction bid document and the Project was released for construction bids on June 29, 2023. On July 20, 2023, two bids were received as shown in the following table:
Contractor Base Bid Alternate 1 Alternate 2 Total
(Base+Alts)
Don Chapin Company
Company Inc.
$455,613.00 $51,715.00 $6,362.00 $513,690.00
Coastal Paving and
Excavating Inc.
$535,320.00 $54,265.00 $6,010.00 $595,595.00
The basis of award is determined as the sum of the total base bid plus alternates.
Based upon an evaluation of bid documents received, The Don Chapin Company Inc., (Chapin) was the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with a total base bid plus alternatives of $513,690.00. Chapin has completed projects with pavement restoration for the cities of Salinas, Soledad, and Monterey. In consideration of the available funding and potential construction conflict with the Caltrans project along Highway 218, staff recommends awarding the base bid only.
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE
This project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Class 1, Section 15301: 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.
Evidence: The proposed project would consist of repairing pavement sections on city streets which would not result in an expansion or significant modification of the existing roadway. Therefore, there are no significant impacts associated with the pavement repair Project.
FISCAL IMPACT
Packet Page 186
Item No. 9.A. Page 3 of 3
The proposed construction contract with Chapin is a not-to-exceed amount of $455,613.00. A construction contract contingency of 10%, or $45,561.00, is appropriate for a project of this size.
The adopted fiscal year 2023-24 budget for the 2023 Hot Spot Pavment Repair Project is $613,734.00 (Account No. 212-8920-9600). In addition to the construction, the project requires public notice, construction management, and inspection services.
Based upon the services necessary for the Project and the construction contingencies, an additional amount of $40,000.00 is needed to deliver the Project, resulting in a revised Project budget of $653,734.00. The approved budget for pavement projects (Account No. 212-8920-9600) has sufficient funds to support the additional $40,000.00.
This will result in a reduction of the FY 2022/2023 Pavement Rehabilitation Project budget currently under design.

HOT SPOT PAVEMENT REPAIRS – Page 8
harmless City for liability attributable to the active negligence of City, provided such active negligence is determined by agreement between the parties or by the findings of a court of competent jurisdiction. In instances where City is shown to have been actively negligent and where City's active negligence accounts for only a percentage of the liability involved, the obligation of Contractor will be for that entire portion or percentage of liability not attributable to the active negligence of City.
3.08 RESPONSIBILITY FOR DAMAGE AND INSURANCE. Prior to the beginning of and throughout the duration of the work, Contractor will maintain insurance in conformance with the requirements set forth below. Contractor will use existing coverage to comply with these requirements. If that existing coverage does not meet the requirements set forth here, it will be amended to do so. Contractor acknowledges that the insurance coverage and policy limits set forth in this section constitute the minimum amount of coverage required. Any insurance proceeds available to City in excess of the limits and coverage required in this agreement and which is applicable to a given loss, will be available to City.
Contractor shall provide the following types and amounts of insurance:
1. Commercial General Liability Insurance using Insurance Services Office "Commercial General Liability" policy form CG 00 01 or the exact equivalent. Defense costs must be paid in addition to limits. There shall be no cross liability exclusion for claims or suits by one insured against another. Limits shall be no less than $2,000,000 per occurrence for all covered losses and no less than $4,000,000 general aggregate.
Contractor's policy shall contain no endorsements limiting coverage beyond the basic policy coverage grant for any of the following:

Coverage shall be applicable to City for injury to employees of contractors, subcontractors or others involved in the project. Policy shall be endorsed to provide a separate limit applicable to this project.

If Contractor or Contractor's employees will use personal autos in any way on this project, Contractor shall provide evidence of personal auto liability coverage for each such person.
4. Excess or Umbrella Liability Insurance (Over Primary) if used to meet limit requirements, shall provide coverage at least as broad as specified for the underlying coverages. Any such coverage provided under an umbrella liability policy shall include a drop down provision providing primary coverage above a maximum $25,000 self-insured retention for liability not covered by primary but covered by the umbrella. Coverage shall be provided on a "pay on behalf' basis, with defense costs payable in addition to policy limits. There shall be no cross liability exclusion precluding coverage for claims or suits by one insured against another. Coverage shall be applicable to City for injury to employees of Contractor, subcontractors or others involved in the Work. The scope of coverage provided is subject to approval of City following receipt of proof of insurance as required herein. Limits are subject to review but in no event less than $1,000,000 per occurrence and aggregate.
Insurance procured pursuant to these requirements shall be written by insurers that are admitted carriers in the state of California and with an A.M. Best rating of A- or better and a minimum financial size VII.
Contractor and City agree as follows:
1. Contractor agrees to endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an edition date of 1985. Contractor also agrees to require all contractors, subcontractors, and anyone else involved in any way with the project contemplated by this agreement to do likewise.
2. Any waiver of subrogation express or implied on the part of City to any party involved in this agreement or related documents applies only to the extent of insurance proceeds actually paid. City, having required that it be named as an additional insured to all insurance coverage required herein, expressly retains the right to subrogate against any party for sums not paid by insurance. For its part, Contractor agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors, subcontractors or others involved in any way with the project(s) contemplated by this agreement, to do likewise.
Packet Page 204
HOT SPOT PAVEMENT REPAIRS – Page 9
3. All insurance coverage maintained or procured by Contractor or required of others by Contractor pursuant to this agreement shall be endorsed to delete the subrogation condition as to City, or to specifically allow Contractor or others providing insurance herein to waive subrogation prior to a loss. This endorsement shall be obtained regardless of existing policy wording that may appear to allow such waivers.
4. It is agreed by Contractor and City that insurance provided pursuant to these requirements is not intended by any party to be limited to providing coverage for the vicarious liability of City, or to the supervisory role, if any, of City. All insurance coverage provided pursuant to this or any other agreement (express or implied) in any way relating to City is intended to apply to the full extent of the policies involved. Nothing referred to here or contained in any agreement involving City in relation to the project(s) contemplated by this agreement is intended to be construed to limit the application of insurance coverage in any way.
5. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing.
6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises.
Contractor shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. e1imation of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City's protection without City's prior written consent.
7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of binders of coverage, or endorsements, or certificates of insurance, at the option of City, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Contractor or deducted from sums due Contractor, at City option.
8. Contractor agrees to endorse, and to require others to endorse, the insurance provided pursuant to these requirements, to require 30 days notice to City and the appropriate tender prior to cancellation of such liability coverage and notice of any material alteration or non-renewal of any such coverage, and to require contractors, subcontractors, and any other party in any way involved with the project contemplated by this agreement to do likewise.
9. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Contractor or any subcontractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance available to City.
10. Contractor agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by contractor, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contractor. Contractor agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Contractor agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review.
11. Contractor agrees that all layers of third party liability coverage required herein, primary, umbrella and excess, will have the same starting and expiration date. Contractor agrees further that all other third party coverages required herein will likewise have concurrent starting and ending dates.
12. Contractor agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self-insure its obligations to City. If contractor's existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the contractor, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions.
13. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contractor ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Contractor, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City.
14. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, all contracts pertaining to the project will be deemed to be executed when finalized and any activity commences in furtherance of performance under this agreement.
15. Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with Packet Page 205
HOT SPOT PAVEMENT REPAIRS – Page 10
any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard.
16. Contractor will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason.
The insurance shall include but not be limited to products and completed operations and discontinued operations, where applicable.
Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect.

7.03 SUBMITTALS. This section supplements the requirements of section 5-1.23, “Submittals” of the Standard Specifications.
All submittals must be electronic.
Accompany submittals with a transmittal form. Use a separate form for each item, class of material, equipment, and for items specified in separate specification sections. Submittals for various items shall be made with a single form when the items taken together constitute a manufacturer's package or are functionally related such that expediency indicates checking or review of the group or package as a whole.
Assign a sequential number to each submittal and note the number on the transmittal form accompanying each item submitted.
Submittal numbers shall have the following format:
XX.YY (NN-N.NN)
Where:
XX = the sequential submittal number
YY= the sequential number of the submittal (“01” for the first submittal, “02” for the second submittal, etc.) (NN-N.NN) identifies the specification section number that requires the submittal.
For example, if the twelfth submittal made is the quality control plan for sign panels, as required by section 56-2.01A, the initial submittal would be 12.01 (56-2.01A). If a re-submittal were required, it would be 12.02 (56-2.01A).
In general, allow 10 working days for Engineer’s review of submittals. Allow 20 working days for Engineer’s review of submittals that include shop drawings or calculations.

Packet Page 239
18 TS-5.03C Layout
The Contractor shall layout and mark the location of the edges of the paving passes of the surface course to match the new layout of the lane lines. The layout shall be made at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to paving. The layout shall be approved by the Engineer prior to paving.
If the striping is to remain unchanged, the edges of the paving passes shall conform to existing lane edges.
In all cases where practical, each lane shall be paved in a single pass. In tapered transition areas, the shoulder areas shall be paved first, then the through lane shall be paved immediately after the shoulder paving.
For paving which incorporates new quarterpoints or gradebreaks due to keycuts or other conditions, the Contractor shall provide equipment capable of adjusting to the new surface profile at the appropriate locations. The profile adjustments shall be within twelve inches of the actual gradebreak or quarterpoint.
The Contractor shall take sufficient measurements during laydown to ensure that the full design hot mix asphalt layer depth is provided at each quarterpoint, gradebreak, or transition. Failure to provide the design depth at these areas will result in rejection of the work. Correction of this rejected work will include milling out the new hot mix asphalt from the road edge to the centerline or nearest inside lane line and repaving. The minimum length of the milled and corrected area shall be fifty feet.
TS-5.03D Tolerances
The finished hot mix asphalt surface shall be flush with, to 1/4 inch (0.02 feet or 6 mm) above, the gutter lips. The finished pavement surface shall not be lower than the gutter lips.

TS-5.03E Automatic Screed Controls
For all main line street or roadway paving with single lane length exceeding 300 feet, automatic screed controls shall be required. Automatic screed controls shall not be required for the paving of parking lots, intersections, cul-de-sacs, alleyways or other irregular areas.
Packet Page 240
19 In addition to the requirements in Section 39-1.10 and 39-1.11 of the Standard Specifications, hot mix asphalt shall be placed with spreading equipment equipped with fully automatic screed and grade sensing controls which shall control the longitudinal grade of the screed. Automatic controls shall conform to and be operated in accordance with the provisions herein.
Unless approved otherwise, ski-type devices with a minimum length of 30 feet shall be used to provide a reference for the grade sensor. Skis shall be constructed and installed in such a manner that a reference to the average elevation of the existing pavement, along the length of the ski, is maintained at the sensor point. When placing surfacing adjacent to surfacing previously placed in conformance with these provisions, a joint matching shoe of adequate size and type to properly sense the grade of the previously placed mat may be used in lieu of the 30-foot ski.
The ski shall be mounted at a location which will provide an accurate reference for the surfacing being placed. This may require the ski to be mounted ahead of and inside the outer limits of the screed. Automatic cross slope control may be accomplished by use of a ski and grade sensor on each side of the paving machine.
Automatic screed controls shall be installed in such a manner that the occasional manual adjustments necessary to maintain the attitude of the screed parallel to the underlying pavement are readily accomplished. Automatic screed controls shall be installed so that with little or no delay, use of the automatic controls can be discontinued and the screed controlled by manual methods.
If it is determined by the Engineer that the existing grade and cross slope are too irregular for the automatic controls to provide the quality of work required, the use of the automatic controls shall be discontinued and the spreading equipment adjusted by manual methods. Use of automatic controls shall resume when the Engineer has determined that it is again practical and so orders.
TS-5.03F Compacting
The number of rollers required for each paving operation shall be such that all rolling for density can be completed before the temperature of the hot mix asphalt mixture drops below 240 degrees Fahrenheit.
Breakdown rolling shall commence when the hot mix asphalt is placed. Rolling shall be accomplished with the drive wheel forward and with the advance and return passes in the same line.
The Contractor shall have hand-compaction equipment immediately available for compacting all areas inaccessible to rollers. Hand-compaction shall be performed concurrently with breakdown rolling. If for any reason hand-compaction falls behind breakdown rolling, further placement of hot mix asphalt shall be suspended until Packet Page 241
20 hand-compaction is caught up. Hand-compaction includes vibraplates and hand tampers. Hand torches shall be available for rework of areas which have cooled.
After compaction, the surface texture of all hand work areas shall match the surface texture of the machine placed mat. Any coarse or segregated areas shall be corrected immediately upon discovery. Failure to immediately address these areas shall cause suspension of hot mix asphalt placement until the areas are satisfactorily addressed, unless otherwise allowed by the Engineer.
TS-5.03G Contractor Quality Control
The HMA shall be verified by the engineer prior to placement on jobsite. If agreed to by the Contractor and the Engineer the production start-up may be used for verification. If the production start-up is used for verification the Engineer may require removal and replacement of the HMA, at their discretion, in the event of verification failure.
Contractor quality control testing is required. However, if the contractor fails to submit quality control results to the engineer within seventy-two (72) hours of HMA placement, the contractor waves all rights to dispute the Engineer’s results. In the event of asphalt binder or Hamburg wheel track testing by the Engineer, the contractor has 5 days to submit their test results from the time the Engineer informs the contractor that he is performing testing or the contractor waves the right to dispute the Engineer’s results.
The Engineer shall test for conformance with aggregate quality characteristics at the beginning of the project.
The Engineer shall test air void content, Hveem stability, and Voids in Mineral Aggregate (VMA) a minimum of once per day. The Engineer may sample the asphalt concrete from truck beds at the plant, from the hopper of the spreading machine, or from the completed mat at the discretion of the Engineer. The Contractor shall facilitate the sampling process.
TS-5.03H Engineer’s Acceptance
Testing
Sublots to determine compaction testing shall be based on the following:
• Each 750 tons, or part thereof, placed on an individual street in a paving day. If over 750 tons are placed in a single paving day on an individual street, up to 150 tons over 750 tons can be moved in to the previous 750 ton sublot.
• If multiple streets are paved in a day, each street will be considered its own sublot with multiple sublots on streets where greater than 750 tons are placed.
Packet Page 242
21 The in-place density shall be between 92.0 percent and 97.0 percent of maximum theoretical unit weight using a nuclear gauge. Gauge compaction testing shall be performed in accordance with CTM 375. Final compaction is based on the average nuclear gauge results for the sublot. The nuclear gauge will be core correlated the first day of paving.
If nuclear gauge compaction testing results are failing, the contractor can request coring to verify the results. Three cores will be sampled for each sublot and the average of the three cores for each sublot will determine density. The core locations will be determined using random sampling charts in CTM 375. The engineer will mark the core locations.
Cores may be taken up to five (5) calendar days after placement and may be 4 or 6 inches in diameter. The engineer will provide results within three (3) working days of receiving the cores.
Passing cores shall be paid for by the owner. Failing cores will be paid for by the contractor. If the core density produces both passing and failing cores, the cost will be prorated between the contractor and the owner.
For the percent of maximum theoretical density, the following table shall apply to deductions for average compaction of a sublot:

All edges shall be vertical to the specified removal depth. All removed material shall be cleared from the site.
The excavated areas shall be graded as shown on the plans as necessary to provide a uniform pavement thickness. The base rock or native soil shall be compacted to 95% relative compaction at or above optimum moisture as determined by Cal Test 216 and 231. All segregated or loose material shall be removed.
On areas where the underlying material appears to be wet or soft or where it deflects under wheel loads, the Contractor shall employ excavation and work techniques which do not worsen the sub-grade condition.
Packet Page 245
24 Prior to placing aggregate base or asphalt concrete, each pavement replacement area shall be proof-rolled with a loaded construction vehicle, preferably a ten cubic yard dump truck or equivalent. The compacted surface shall not visibly yield or deflect. Soft, yielding, unstable, or unsuitable areas shall be removed and replaced with base rock or asphalt concrete. If the areas were caused or significantly worsened by the Contractor’s operations, these areas shall be replaced at the Contractor’s expense.
In the event that the underlying material is soft, yielding, unstable, or unsuitable, it shall be excavated to a depth of 0.5 feet below the depth required above and disposed of in accordance with these Special Provisions. The limits of removal shall be designated by the Engineer. The resulting space shall be filled with a single lift of asphalt concrete.
Unsuitable material is defined as material the Engineer determines to be:
1. Of such unstable nature as to be incapable of being compacted to specified density using ordinary methods at optimum moisture content, or
2. Too wet to be properly compacted and circumstances prevent in-place drying prior to incorporation into the work, or
3. Otherwise unsuitable for the planned use.
After compaction of the sub-grade, aggregate base shall be placed and compacted to 95% relative compaction. All vertical edges of existing pavement or concrete shall receive a tack coat immediately prior to paving. Additional tack may be necessary between asphalt concrete courses. No prime coat shall be required. A tack coat between layers of asphalt concrete shall be required if not paved on the same day or if the surface has been contaminated or soiled. Any contamination or soiling shall be thoroughly cleaned and a tack coat placed between layers immediately prior to paving.
Care shall be taken to assure compaction of the inside corners of the first lift.
Ramping shall not be allowed on the course placed immediately prior to the surface course.
A minimum of two lifts shall be used for each replacement area or digout with a depth greater than three inches. The surface course shall be 1-1/2 inches minimum thickness. No single base or intermediate course may exceed three inches.
The repaired areas shall conform to the level of the surrounding pavement so that no elevation variation is evident. The surface shall have a maximum variation from high to low of 0.01 feet maximum when measured with a twelve-foot level.
Variation at the edges shall not exceed 0.01 feet maximum. When matching existing pavement, the finished surface shall not inhibit drainage. The upslope edge of the digout or replacement shall be 0.00 feet high to 0.01 feet low. On the Packet Page 246
