In November 2020, in order to address the critical need for more housing in the City, the City Council passed a series of four Resolutions intended to facilitate the development of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs) within the City of Seaside by allocating five acre-feet of water from the City's Water Allocation Program and establishing the conditions under which that water could be provided to a particular project. At this meeting the Council adopted an Ordinance amending Section 13.24.025.C to provide that any ADU or JADU project making use of the water allocation would be required to obtain and pay a fee for a water release Packet Page 356
Item No. 9.I. Page 2 of 2
permit, at a fee to be provided by Resolution, unless the applicant agreed to deed restrict the ADU or JADU to only be rented or used by persons meeting low or very-lowincome thresholds. The intention of this program was to provide a financial incentive for project applicants to dedicate their ADU or JADU as an affordable unit.
On November 19, 2020, the Council adopted Resolution 20-99 which set the fee for a water release permit at $2,500 per fixture unit if no deed restriction was provided. On July 6, 2023, the City Council adopted a follow-up Resolution to clarify that this fee and fixture limit applied to projects located in the service areas of both the California American Water Company and the Seaside Municipal Water District.
To date, all ADU and JADU projects have elected to pay the fee rather than designate the unit as affordable. Depending on the number of proposed and existing fixtures, water release permit fees can be range from $250 to $17,000. The fee for a water release permit therefore can represent a significant cost for applicants wishing to construct a new ADU or JADU. Water provided to other projects is not subject to the requirement to obtain a water release permit nor pay any fee to obtain the water.
In order to reduce costs related to permitting for ADUs and JADUs, and to bring water allocations for ADUs and JADUs into alignment with practices related to water allocations for other project types, staff recommends that the water release permits and the associated fee be eliminated. In the immediate term, staff's recommendation is that the City Council designate that there is no charge to obtain a water release permit.
This will have the effect of immediately ending the collection of fees and enabling projects to move forward without this additional cost. Staff will examine the appropriateness of revising the Ordinance as well and will report back to the Council at a later time.
FISCAL IMPACT
The reduction of water permit fees to no charge would result in a reduction to City revenues equal to $2,500 per fixture unit of water allocated for ADUs. This reduction of revenue is not expected to significantly impact City operations.

Item No.: 9.J.
TO: City Council
FROM: Craig Malin, Interim City Manager
BY: Samantha Alcaraz, Human Resources Director/Risk Manager DATE: February 6, 2025
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MODIFICATION OF
THE POSITION ALLOCATION LIST AND COMPENSATION PLAN
TO ADD THE POSITION OF ENGINEER INSPECTOR AND
APPROVE JOB DESCRIPTION OF ASSISTANT CITY MANAGERCOMMUNITY SERVICES AND ADD TO THE CITY'S
CLASSIFICATION PLAN
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution to modify the Position Allocation List and Classification Plan to reflect the organizational changes to add one full time Engineer Inspector and approve the job description for Assistant City Manager-Community Services and delete Recreation Director.
BACKGROUND
The City's management team continuously evaluates staffing levels and the organizational structure to align with operational needs. The Engineering Department is currently staffed with one Junior Engineer which is insufficient for the amount and type of work being performed. In order to effectively move the Council's priorities forward, and manage inspections and support, the addition of a Engineer Inspector is critical.
The position of Engineer Inspector will be full-time. It is recommended the maximum salary be established at $117,684.32, which is equivalent to the position of Associate Planner. The benefits for the position will be equivalent to those of the City's General Employees Association/LIUNA.
Recreation Director, Daniel Meewis, has assumed the role and duties of Assistant City Manager since its vacancy in 2023 and was later appointed as Acting Assistant City Packet Page 359
Item No. 9.J. Page 2 of 2
Manager, while maintaining oversight of the Recreation Division, in 2024. The Assistant City Manager position will be combined with Recreation Director to create one classification, Assistant City Manager-Community Services.
The Assistant City Manager-Community Services position will be filled through an internal process in accordance with the City's Personnel Rules, resulting in Recreation Director reclassified to Assistant City Manager-Community Services. The salary for this combined positions will remain the same salary as Assistant City Manager and follow the Department Director Compensation Plan with the established annual salary of $239,796.96.
These changes will be a cost savings for the City and will not impact the FY 2024-25 budget. The reclassification of Assistant City Manager and elimination of Recreation Director will be an annual savings of $205,075 and Engineering will underfill the vacant Associate Engineer position with the Engineer Inspector, which is an estimated annual saving difference of $19,054.88.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no Fiscal Impact for FY24-25. The estimated total cost savings will be an estimated $32,019.

Item No.: 9.K.
TO: City Council
FROM: Craig Malin, Interim City Manager

Leslie Llantero, Assistant Engineer
DATE: February 6, 2025
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE APPLICATION FOR BUILD GRANT FUNDS THROUGH U.S. DEPARTMENT OF
TRANSPORTATION FOR THE BROADWAY AVENUE COMPLETE
STREET CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving the application for BUILD grant funds.
BACKGROUND
The Broadway Avenue Complete Streets Corridor Improvements Project (Project) will implement a road diet on Broadway Avenue from Fremont Boulevard to General Jim Boulevard, reducing Broadway Avenue from a 4 lane roadway into a 2 lane roadway with curb extensions, bike lanes, roundabouts, and crosswalks. Improvements on Yosemite Street will include bicycle pavement markings and signage. The Project is funded with grants from the Active Transportation Program (ATP) and Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) with construction funding in the amount of $9.45M from ATP. The Project plans are 95% complete and are undergoing review by the Department of State Architecture (DSA) and Caltrans. At this time the estimated construction cost exceeds the available funding. Construction is anticipated to begin in Spring of 2026. This will allow staff to pursue additional grant funds to fully fund the construction of the Project.
The U.S. Department of Transportation's (USDOT) Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD) grant program provides grants for surface transportation infrastructure projects with significant local or regional impact. The eligibility requirements of BUILD allow project sponsors, including state and local Packet Page 371
Item No. 9.K. Page 2 of 3
governments, counties, Tribal governments, transit agencies, and port authorities, to pursue multi-modal and multi-jurisdictional projects that are more difficult to fund through other grant programs.
The Project estimated cost is $17.736M which includes environmental, design, and construction. The approved grant funds in the amount of $11.626 are from ATP for design and construction and Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) for environmental. The $6.11M BUILD grant funds requested would fund about 34% of the total cost.
The City Administrative Policy/Grant Management Policy and Procedures says that grant applications equal to or in excess of $10,000.00 are required to be approved by the City Council, per City of Seaside policy. The policy requires that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the filing of the application, certifying the project is consistent with the General Plan City goals and objectives, certifying the applicant has sufficient funds available to operate and maintain the project, and appointing the City Manager as agent for the project. Construction of the Broadway Avenue Complete Streets Corridor Improvements Project is consistent with the current General Plan Goals M-1 Complete Street, M-2 Bikeway Network, and M-7 Safe Routes to School. These goals support pedestrian and bicycle enhancements which will result in safer pedestrian environments, shorter pedestrian crossing distances, and will provide a class II bicycle facility connecting to existing bicycle facilities between West Broadway and General Jim Moore Boulevard.
The Broadway Avenue Complete Streets Corridor Improvements Project is a Capital Improvement Program Project, and it is consistent with the City’s policy to focus its efforts on securing grants for capital improvements.
The application was submitted online on January 30, 2025, and the award announcement is expected to be in June 2025.
Staff recommends Council adopt a resolution approving the application for BUILD grant funds for the Broadway Avenue Complete Streets Corridor Improvements Project from USDOT.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no impact to the general fund. If the BUILD grant is not awarded, staff will proceed with construction of a portion of the Project while continuing to seek grant funds.

City of Seaside BUILD Grant Broadway Ave Complete Street Corridor Project Description
The Broadway Avenue Complete Street Corridor project will create the only continuous citywide east-west bicycle facility in the city of Seaside. The project will entail a complete redesign of the Broadway Avenue corridor, and will address serious safety concerns of speeding, sideswipes and broadside collisions that plague the corridor frequently used by children and seniors. This includes the PA&ED, PS&E and Construction phases of this corridor redesign. The project will also include non-infrastructure programming designed to increase the shift to active transportation modes and long-lasting behavior change through a suite of programming for elementary school children, low-income families, seniors and businesses along the corridor. The project proposes safety and operational improvements along the corridor with the intent of providing equitable transportation solutions and improving the quality of life for the neighboring communities. The Program is led by the City of Seaside (City) in partnership with the Transportation Agency for Monterey County, and the Monterey County Health Department (MCHD).
Project Location
Seaside is the second-largest city in Monterey County, with a population of 34,165 in 2017. See below for the project location in reference to Monterey County, Figure 2 for a vicinity map of the project, and Figure 3 for community destinations within the project vicinity. It is also a demographically young city, with 25% of its population under the age of 18. Seaside is the most ethnically diverse city in Monterey County: 42% of residents are Hispanic/Latino, 31% are white, 10% are Asian, and 7% are African American. According to census data, the majority of Seaside residents drive alone to work. Five percent of residents walk or bike to work, and 4% take public transportation.

Figure 3: Community Destinations Map
Seaside residents grapple with high living costs and houses disadvantaged populations as defined by the Health Disadvantaged Index and the CalEnviroScreen 3.0. One in seven Seaside residents lives in a disadvantaged neighborhood: one where nearly 60% of households live in poverty, 11.8% of households lack access to a car, and 91% of people over the age of 25 have no high school education. With poorer households less likely to have access to a household vehicle than wealthier households, investment in car-centric infrastructure has historically only benefited wealthier communities. The communities within the project areas are identified as Areas of Persistent Poverty and as Historically Disadvantaged Communities. See Figure 4 for census tracts considered as Areas of Persistent Poverty.
Packet Page 380
Figure 4: Areas of Persistent Poverty Map
This project will provide these residents direct access to the services and programs needed to cope with their current situations and improve their lives and the lives of future generations. This project will provide direct access from the most disadvantaged neighborhoods to schools, places of worship, job center, community and county services, and after school programs.
Within the city of Seaside, the project is located in the geographic center of the city along a 1.3 mile stretch of Broadway Avenue, from Fremont Boulevard to General Jim Moore Boulevard, and Yosemite Ave, from San Pablo Avenue to Wanda Avenue. (see ). Broadway Avenue is one of the main east-west arterials in the city, with a connection to a major corridor for north-south destinations on General Jim Moore Boulevard.
General Jim Moore connections to the south include Ryan Ranch business park via South Boundary Road, commercial businesses in Del Rey Oaks via Highway 68, and to the north, Cal State University Monterey Bay (CSUMB) in Marina, military housing and services, the Department of Defense, and trail access to the Fort Ord Monument.
Project Challenges
In recent years the City of Seaside has made progress toward building up their bicycle infrastructure, however large gaps and lack of facilities have proved to be major barriers to bicycling. To-date there is only one continuous north-south class II bicycle facility in Seaside on General Jim Moore Blvd. Broadway Avenue runs east-west through the heart of Seaside and connects to General Jim Moore Blvd on the east end. The City of Seaside recently constructed a road diet with bike lanes on West Broadway and painted class III “sharrows” to the east of Fremont Blvd up to General Jim Moore. Unfortunately, Class III sharrows alone were found not to increase bicycling on the busy 4-lane corridor and feedback from the community was that more protection/separation was needed for people to feel comfortable bicycling on Broadway from Fremont Blvd to General Jim Moore Blvd.
Proposed Improvements
For the Broadway Avenue Complete Street Corridor project, a proposed 1.3-mile road diet on Broadway Avenue from Fremont Boulevard to General Jim Moore Boulevard will transform a 4- lane roadway to a 2‐lane roadway with curb extensions, buffered and protected bike facilities, Packet Page 381
roundabouts, and Safe Routes to School improvements including off‐set crosswalk, rectangular rapid flashing beacons, and accessible design. Improvements on Yosemite Ave will include bicycle pavement markings, signage, curb extensions and high visibility crosswalks. Design and construction of a road diet with buffered and protected bicycle facilities will create a safer and more comfortable environment for walking and bicycling from the west to the east end of Seaside.
The roundabouts, curb extensions, accessible sidewalks, off-set crosswalk and rectangular rapid flashing beacons will slow traffic on this busy corridor and increase visibility of bicyclists and pedestrians of all ages as they cross the street.
The narrowing of Broadway Avenue from four travel lanes to two travel lanes would provide for a more pedestrian and bicycle-friendly environment. The additional width gained from the lane reduction would be allocated to bike lanes, left turn lanes and medians, and curb extensions.
Roundabouts would be installed at seven intersections (Terrace, San Lucas, Noche Buena, Flores, Yosemite, Ancon, and Mescal) with high visibility crosswalks to facilitate pedestrian crossings on all approaches. Curb extensions are extensions of the sidewalk into the parking lane to facilitate accessibility and improve driver awareness of pedestrians and reduce the street crossing distance and pedestrian exposure to motor vehicles.
Marked crosswalks at roundabouts will be delineated with high-visibility white painted crossing marks and stop bars in addition at school crossings high-visibility yellow painted crossing marks and white yield lines will be installed. An off-set high visibility mid-block crosswalk with Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB) will be placed across Broadway Avenue at the entrance to Martin Luther King School of the Arts to facilitate pedestrian crossing. The addition of a roundabout at Ancon Street demonstrated a need due to the removal of an eastbound left turn pocket at the entrance into the parking lot of Martin Luther King School of the Arts.
The Project creates continuous bike routes from the intersection of Del Monte Boulevard and Canyon Del Rey Boulevard to Broadway Avenue to General Jim Moore Boulevard. Designated Class II and IV bike lanes will be on both sides of the street along the length of Broadway Avenue.
Bicycle access will be provided by clearly marked street bike lanes and bike boxes at roundabouts and signalized intersections. The Broadway Avenue bike lanes will be delineated with green pavement marking and contrasting markings to enhance visibility and rider safety.
Green-colored bicycle lanes and bike box are also part of the project. These treatments will enhance the visibility of cyclists and may increase the comfort of cyclists riding on the street. The bike box planned on Broadway Avenue at the intersections is intended to improve awareness and visibility of cyclists. Cyclists will have the option to share the road with motorists through the roundabouts (sharrows) or use an alternate adjacent route on the pedestrian walkway.
The Project will complete the bicycle corridor between Fremont and General Jim Moore Blvd.
This would help complete both the north-south and east-west bicycle corridors in Seaside. The Project would remove sharrows and replace with a Class II bike lane along both sides of Broadway Avenue and restripe the travel lanes as necessary to retain at least two vehicle travel lanes in each direction. This should greatly enhance the appeal for using bicycles as primary alternative mode of transportation to motor vehicles for both recreational and regional transportation needs.
Packet Page 382
Roundabouts at the intersections will reduce stop and start delays through the corridor making transit through the corridor more efficient and will compensate for the loss of vehicular lane.
Project/Program History
The Broadway Ave Complete Streets Corridor project will build on the recently completed West Broadway Urban Village development funded through the Active Transportation Program, and the Seaside & Marina Safe Walking & Biking to School: Complete Streets Plan adopted by the City of Seaside and School District in February 2020. When the City completed an ATP-funded road diet with bicycle lanes, wider sidewalks and high visibility crossings, West Broadway flourished.
The $7 Million infrastructure project completed in 2018 has already resulted in $6 Million in private investment, 30 new jobs and additional tax revenue for the City. The City is confident that extending the road diet to the east by constructing the Broadway Ave Complete Streets Corridor project will only build on those results, as well as support proposed affordable mixed-use housing on the west end of the corridor.
The Seaside & Marina Safe Walking & Biking to School: Complete Streets Plan adopted by the City of Seaside and School District in February 2020 identifies Broadway Avenue and Yosemite Avenue as important safe routes to school corridors serving four of the seven elementary schools in Seaside. Consistent with the Plan, the Broadway Ave Complete Streets Corridor will address the top community-identified safety concerns and barriers to children walking and biking to schools in the project area: safety of intersections and crossings; speed of traffic and amount of traffic. These community concerns are validated by the history of bicycle and pedestrian involved collisions on Broadway Avenue.
Bicyclists and pedestrians are disproportionately involved in collisions in Seaside and at higher rates within the project area than in the rest of the City. Over the past decade, 13.5% of all bicycle and pedestrian collisions in Seaside occurred within the project area. Between 2008 and 2019, walking and bicycling accounted for ~5% of trips to work in Seaside. During the same time period, bicyclists and pedestrians were involved in ~20% of the collisions in Seaside and ~37% of the collisions within the project area demonstrating that current conditions along Broadway Ave represent a significant safety threat. Youths are also disproportionately involved in bicycle and pedestrian collisions. The City is fully committed to delivering the project and needs additional funding to see all phases of these improvements through construction.
Project Status
The project is currently in the final design phase and has submitted 100% plans to Caltrans for final review. The City will submit for the request for funding allocation for Construction Phase by February 2026 from Caltrans.

RECOMMENDATION
Consider request to extend the date to close a Hotel Construction loan to April 30, 2025
BACKGROUND
This is a request by SKDG to extend the date for the Closing of a Hotel Construction loan, currently set for January 31, 2025 to April 30, 2025. The Owner has already begun performing under the Schedule of Performance established for the hotel portion and timeshare portion of the Seaside Resort development. Since the approval of the previous extension, SKDG has continued to implement work as a prerequisite to the hotel construction. The temporary power panel and switch was installed adjacent to McClure Way, water and sewer infrastructure are being installed. Rough grading permits have been pulled and fees paid in preparation for the hotel site preparation.
SKDG has been meeting with prospective lenders. The Owner estimates that it will take sixty to ninety days to secure a construction loan and is accordingly asking that the date be extended to April 30, 2025. Thus, for business reasons and in order to keep costs at a minimum, it has requested an extension of the date by which a hotel construction loan must be obtained.

BACKGROUND
On March 19, 2020, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1082 approving a Development Agreement with KB Bakewell Seaside Venture II, LLC (Developer) for the development of approximately 122 acres of land on the former Fort Ord, a project more commonly known as Campus Town. Pursuant to section 11 of the Agreement, the City is responsible for remediating the property to be free of hazardous materials to residential standards at no cost to the Developer. The City is also obligated to deconstruct, demolish and remove buildings, structures and improvements located Packet Page 394
Item No. 10.A. Page 2 of 4
within the boundaries of the development. The scope of work the City is obligated to complete under Phase 1B includes the remediation and demolition of a parking lot and buildings north of the Presidio of Monterey Fire Station, the abandoned Burger King building, debris, parking lots, underground utilities, and other improvements east of General Jim Moore Blvd. north of Gigling Road, west of Arnhem Rd, and south of Colonel Durham Street in the City of Seaside on former Fort Ord Property.
The sites have been fully tested for hazardous materials and soil contamination, and the project will include hazardous material abatement work. No soil contamination exists within the Phase 1B area. The City contracted with Harris & Associates to prepare demolition engineering plans and specifications and Vista Environmental to prepare a remediation work plan, reports, and specifications for all the building sites.
The project work generally consists of decontamination, deconstruction, demolition, removal, and proper disposal of all buildings, structures, parking lots, improvements, and select trees, shrubs, bushes, and vegetation at the Burger King site, the area north of the Presidio Fire Station, and the parking lots to the East. The deconstruction and demolition work shall include removal and disposal of the subject structures in their entirety to include roof structures, exterior walls, interior walls, concrete slabs and foundations, windows, doors, plumbing, underground utilities, mechanical, communications, and electrical systems. The site work includes removal and disposal of asphalt concrete parking lots, concrete, retaining walls, steps, excavation, disconnection, capping, removal, and disposal of water, wastewater, gas, and electrical utilities, and rough grading for mitigating safety concerns and facilitating drainage. The project work includes hazardous materials removal and proper disposal, including asbestos, lead-based paint and/or materials, refrigerants, chromated-copper arsenate (CCA), universal waste, and other hazardous materials. This project also includes asbestos cement pipe (ACP) on-site and below-grade.
The design was completed and the Project was released for construction bids on December 5th, 2024, and bids were opened on Janurary 23rd, 2025. Three (3) complete, responsive, and responsible bids were received as follows:
BIDDER BID TOTAL
Randazzo Enterprises Inc. $1,326,129.00
Brannon Corporation Inc. $2,164,409.00
Grion Construction Inc. $2,633,383.00
Engineers Estimate $3,451,000.00
After review of the bids, Randazzo Enterprises Inc. was found to be the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with a total bid of $1,326,129.00. Randazzo Enterprises Inc. has satisfactorily completed similar projects to the Fort Ord Military Reservation Property Deconstruction and Demolition Project - Phase 1B for the City and Packet Page 395
Item No. 10.A. Page 3 of 4
other municipalities. Staff recommends awarding a construction agreement for this project to Randazzo Enterprises Inc.
ENVIRONMENTAL
In accordance with Title 14, California Code of Regulations (CCR, Title 14), Chapter 3 “CEQA Guidelines,” Article 20, Section 15378, the proposed action is a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Specifically, the remediation and demolition activities for construction of the Campus Town Development are considered a “Project” under CEQA Statute 21065, because the Project is an activity which may cause either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and is directly undertaken by a public agency and it is supported through assistance from one or more public agencies.
On March 5, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution 20-09 certifying the Environmental Impact Report for the Campus Town Specific Plan and adopted a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP). The City will implement appropriate mitigation as identified in the adopted Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. The executed Resolution and MMRP can be found by clicking the following link. Resolution 20-09 and MMRP
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed construction agreement with Randazzo Enterprises Inc. is a not to exceed amount of $1,326,129.00. In addition, a construction agreement contingency of 25%, or $331,532.25, is necessary for expenses from unforeseeable issues that arise during construction.
With the sunset of the Fort Ord Reuse Authority in June of 2020, the City received a bond in the amount of $6,555,000 for blight removal within the former Fort Ord. The construction agreement with Randazzo Enterprises Inc. will be funded from those bond funds, account no. 329-8110-2073, where there are sufficient funds remaining in the amount of $3,596,319.27.
Staff recommends adopting a resolution approving the plans and specifications for the Fort Ord Military Reservation Property Deconstruction and Demolition Project - Phase 1B; awarding a construction agreement to Randazzo Enterprises Inc. for an amount not to exceed $1,326,129.00; establishing a 25% construction contingency for a total project construction amount not to exceed of $331,532.25; and, authorizing the City Manager to execute the construction agreement and approve any amendments, extensions, and change orders until completion of the project in accordance with the plans and specifications up to the total project construction amount.
