STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 7.B.

TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Dominique Davis, City Clerk
DATE: November 20, 2025
SUBJECT: APPROVE A PROCLAMATION RECOGNIZING DECEMBER 10, 2025, AS WORLD HUMAN RIGHTS DAY

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the proclamation.

BACKGROUND
Human Rights Day is observed annually on December 10 to commemorate the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) by the United Nations General Assembly in 1948. The UDHR affirms the inherent dignity, equal worth, and inalienable rights of all people. Celebrated globally, this day emphasizes the importance of freedom, justice, and peace as universal values transcending borders, identities, and ideologies.

In recent years, local jurisdictions across the United States have increasingly used Human Rights Day to reaffirm community commitments to equity, inclusion, and respect for all. Seaside—recognized for its cultural diversity, strong community partnerships, and long-standing advocacy for civil and social rights—is well-positioned to join this global observance with an official proclamation.

The City of Seaside remains committed to advancing equity, civic engagement, and community well-being. The principles outlined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights align closely with the City’s core values and strategic goals, including:

Packet Page 12

Item No. 7.B. Page 2 of 2
• Promoting inclusive community engagement across Seaside’s diverse population; • Ensuring equitable access to city services, resources, and opportunities; • Supporting public safety, housing stability, and community resilience; • Fostering cultural understanding and partnerships that strengthen social cohesion.

Adopting this proclamation publicly acknowledges Seaside’s dedication to human dignity and reinforces the City’s ongoing efforts to cultivate a community where every resident—regardless of background—feels safe, valued, and empowered.

Human Rights Day also presents an opportunity to highlight and uplift the work of local organizations, faith-based institutions, youth groups, educators, and community leaders who advance social justice both within Seaside and throughout the Monterey Peninsula.

Item No.: 7.D.

TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Dan Meewis, Assistant City Manager
Kee Hyon Higgins, Recreation Supervisor
DATE: November 20, 2025
SUBJECT: APPROVE MAYOR'S YOUTH FUND CONTRIBUTION REQUEST OF $3,000.00 FROM GREATER VICTORY TEMPLE CHURCH OF GOD

IN CHRIST TO HELP WITH COSTS ASSOCIATED FOR THEIR

HOLIDAY MEAL AND CHILDREN'S TOY GIVEAWAY PROGRAM

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the request.

BACKGROUND
Greater Victory Temple Church of God in Christ (COGIC) is requesting a donation of $3,000.00 from the Mayor's Youth Fund to help assist with the costs associated with their holiday meal and Children's Toy Giveaway Program. This free community event is open to all children and families in the community and has been an annual tradition for Great Victory Temple COGIC to host. This year they are expecting over five hundred attendees. Greater Victory Temple COGIC has also received donations from The Bakewell Company, Emmanuel COGIC, Carmel Presbyterian Church, and Colonel Al Glover for this event. Even with these donations, the applicant wants to make sure they are able to meet the growing needs of the community with the rising cost of food and toys.

Greater Victory Temple COGIC will have onsite recycling bins and will ensure that all recyclables are properly separated and placed in the appropriate bins. In addition, they will ensure that all leftover food is also properly placed in a compostable Greenwaste container to help maintain a clean and healthy environment.

Packet Page 17

Item No. 7.D. Page 2 of 2
Based on the information provided in the application, the request meets the criteria for the Mayor's Youth Fund Policy. They received their last donation at the November 21, 2024, City Council meeting. They submitted their 2024 Mayor's Youth Fund Closing Report within the 60-day time frame.

Greater Victory Temple COGIC received the Mayor's Youth Fund for their holiday meal and Children's Toy Giveaway Program in 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT
This request would be funded by a donation from the Green Waste Recovery's donation to the Mayor's Youth Fund. The current balance of the Mayor's Youth Fund account (601-2106) is $41,122.20. If the City Council approves this request, the balance will decrease to $38,122.20. This is for fiscal year 2025/26.

In the event that all the funds in the Mayor's Youth Fund become exhausted, staff will keep a file of all applications. Once Green Waste issues the next round of funding, all applications on file will be processed at the next available City Council meeting.

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 7.E.

TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Kirstin van Gend, Administrative Analyst II
Thomas Korman, Public Works Director/City Engineer
DATE: November 20, 2025
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF

SPORTS LIGHTING UTILIZING SOURCEWELL FOR CUTINO
PARK IN THE AMOUNT OF $62,741.18, AND AUTHORIZING A
$25,000.00 TRANSFER FROM CAPITAL RESERVES FOR

INSTALLATION

RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the purchase and fund transfer.

BACKGROUND
During the winter storms in early 2025, one of the sports lighting poles at Cutino Park was damaged and remains inoperable. Staff plan to conduct an evaluation of all the remaining poles and the estimated cost of replacement. In the adopted FY 2025/2026 budget, $75,000.00 was allocated to immediately replace the downed sports light pole at Cutino Park. In October 2025, staff requested a quote through Sourcewell for the purchase of a sports lighting pole. On November 4, 2025, Sourcewell submitted a quote totaling $62,741.18 for the purchase of the pole. Staff find the cost reasonable and recommend proceeding with the purchase.

Bear Electrical Solutions was approved by Council on February 1, 2025, as an On-Call Traffic Signal and Streetlight Maintenance contractor and will complete the installation for $35,690.00. The cost of the pole and installation is $98,431.18 which exceeds the adopted budget amount of $75,000 by $23,431.18. Staff is requesting an appropriation of $25,000.00 from the Capital Reserve to cover the additional costs with contingency.

FISCAL IMPACT
Packet Page 27

Item No. 7.E. Page 2 of 2
The Cutino Park – Parks Improvements project (Account No. 348-8910-9570) currently has $75,000.00 allocated in the FY 2025/2026 Adopted Budget. The additional TwentyFive Thousand ($25,000.00) would need to be appropriated from the City's General Fund Capital Reserve to fund the proposed amendment to the CIP and purchase and installation of the sports lighting totaling $98,431.18.

The Capital Reserve is designed to provide flexibility in covering unplanned expenditures and is currently set at 5% of the budgeted expenditures for the year. As of this time, the reserve stands at $2.4 million. This level of reserve provides sufficient cushion to address unforeseen budgetary needs while maintaining the overall fiscal health of the organization. By drawing $25,000 from the reserve, staff is confident that the remaining balance will continue to be robust enough to support future needs without compromising financial stability.

The State of California Building Standards Commission adopts and publishes amendments to national model codes and updates codes specific to the State of California. Cities and counties that do not adopt updated state codes locally by reference are required to follow State Codes only as written. The updated code version codified in the Seaside Municipal Code (SMC) prior to January 1, 2026, will enable the City of Seaside to enforce building and related codes through local methods and processes contained in the SMC.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no financial impact associated with the adoption of the Ordinance. This Ordinance does not modify any of the City's building or development fees.

A minimum clearance of 12 feet (3658 mm) to all structures and other tents.

SECTION 2. Findings.

A. The amendments to California Building and Residential Codes set forth in this ordinance are reasonably necessary because of the following local geological conditions:

1. 2.

3. CBC Section 1905.1.8 & CRC Section R403.1.3 Plain Concrete. Seaside is within a very active seismic area (Seismic Design Category D). Severe seismic action could disrupt structural integrity and damage unreinforced footings. The proposed amendments to the California Building and Residential Codes address the problem of poor performance of plain or under-reinforced concrete footings during a seismic event. This amendment reflects the recommendations by the Structural Engineers Association of Southern California (SEAOSC) and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force that investigated the poor performance of plain and under-reinforced concrete footings observed in 1994 Northridge earthquake.

CBC Section 1705.3. Results from studies after the 1994 Northridge earthquake indicated that a lot of the damages were attributed to lack of quality control during construction. The proposed amendment improves quality control during construction and therefore needs to be incorporated into the Code. Revise CBC Section 1705.3 exception No. 1 to allow special inspection not to be required for isolated spread footing where the structural design of the footing is based on a specified compressive strength, f’c, no greater than 2,500 psi.

CRC Section R602.10.4.4. The proposed amendments to the California Residential Code address the problem of poor performance of Gypsum Wallboard and Portland Cement Plaster as wall bracing materials in high seismic areas. This amendment reflects the recommendations by the Structural Engineers Association of Southern California (SEAOSC) and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force that investigated the poor performance of these bracing materials that were observed in 1994 Northridge earthquake.

B. The amendments to California Fire Code Section set forth in this ordinance are necessary because
topographical conditions:
of the following local climatic, geological and

1. 2.

3. Climatic
The climate weather patterns within the city of Seaside are considered to be moderately affected by the ocean bodies of the Pacific Ocean and Monterey Bay, which extend the year round growing season of vegetation. The normal year’s rainfall is approximately eighteen (18) inches on the average yearly calendar.

Summer conditions with the prevalent Pacific High Cell create the mid-day fog normally associated with Seaside. This climactic fog assists the natural vegetation in growth.

Later in the year, the winds and drying vegetation mix to create a hazardous fuel condition, which has caused grassland and brushland fires in recent years. While normal temperatures usually do not exceed 75-80 degrees, during late summer and early fall (August, September, October) the temperatures can climb to 90 degrees plus. The afternoon winds can move a fire quickly in the city limits and outlying areas that once were Fort Ord.

Because of weather patterns and population increases, the City of Seaside has experienced water rationing and water allocation. Due to storage capacities and consumption, as well as climatic conditions, limited water resources are an issue.

While sound management of the water resources is possible, actual demands on an already stressed water supply can most assuredly be predicted.

Geological
Seismic activity within the City occurs yearly with little or no damage, although real potential for damage does exist with four local active faults. New construction may be limited by its respective distance to such faults, and replacement of existing structures could be costly. The city of Seaside has a start at sea level and extends to areas in excess of 300 feet above sea level. The elevation change caused by the hills creates the geological foundation on which the City has built and will continue to build. The region is located in an area of high seismic activity as indicated by the United States Geological Survey. Recent earthquake activity has indicated the lack of flexibility of materials and building systems has been a contributing factor to damages that reduced the protection of the life-safety of building occupants and increased the cost of rehabilitation of structures. Activities have indicated the need for increased levels of safety in building systems, including but not limited to means of egress, wiring systems, and fire protection systems.

Topographical
The findings in this section are caused by the construction and design of the City of Seaside due to the elevation changes, as well as the mountains, hills, and canyons that dissect the City with the addition of portions of the former Fort Ord Military -30-
reasonably
Packet Page 65
Base that are now considered Seaside. The water supply (domestic and fire flow) is directly affected by the topographical layout. The distribution system consists of water lines that carry the water from storage tanks to the public via pipes. These street mains create lift-zones where the pressure and flows are adequate at lower elevations and minimal, sometimes critical supplies at the top. Water supplies within the City of Seaside vary from less than 250 gallons-per-minute to flows in excess of 4,000 gallons-per-minute. This wide variation causes major problems to development, as well as fire suppression forces.

The topography also has affected the way buildings are built in Seaside. The existing structures are being removed and replaced with larger, more cost effective buildings. Those existing structures which remain cause concern to the Fire Department because of their lack of adequate fire protection. It is not uncommon to see a single or two-story building torn down and replaced with a two, three, or four story building typically also built with wood (Type V). The potential for conflagration exists with the high buildout in certain sections of Seaside. The concentrated commercial as well as residential occupancies cause concern regarding the exposure elements of building-to-building and the future building-tograssland development on portions of the former Fort Ord Military Base now Seaside.

These Findings of Fact, which identify the various climatic, geological, and topographical conditions are considered reasonably necessary to modify the requirements established pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 17922 based on local conditions.

SECTION 4. Effective Date. This ordinance shall be in full force and effect 30 days after its final passage and adoption but no sooner than January 1, 2026.

SECTION 5. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this ordinance. Within fifteen (15) days after the passage of this ordinance, the City Clerk shall cause it to be posted in three (3) public places designated by resolution of the City Council. Immediately upon this ordinance becoming effective, the City Clerk shall forward a certified copy of the same to the California Building Standards Commission.

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 9.A.

TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Greg McDanel, City Manager
Dan Meewis, Assistant City Manager
DATE: November 20, 2025
SUBJECT: DISCUSS THE WHEELER STREET TENNIS AND PICKLEBALL COURTS

RECOMMENDATION
Conduct discussion regarding the operations at Wheeler Street Tennis Courts and Pickleball courts, receive staff recommendations, and provide direction to staff.

BACKGROUND
Pickleball play at the Wheeler Street Tennis & Pickleball Courts has evolved significantly since its introduction in 2019. In late 2019, the Parks and Recreation Commission began receiving public requests to allow pickleball on the existing tennis courts, initially considering temporary lines and a six-month trial period. The Commission revisited the issue multiple times in 2019 and early 2020, expressing potential concerns regarding parking, noise, and increases in overall activity. The City Council approved a six-month trial period in February 2020; however, implementation was delayed due to the COVID19 pandemic, and the courts remained closed until September 2020.

Between 2021 and 2022, the City conducted expanded neighborhood notifications and several rounds of Commission review. Residents within both 300- and 500-foot radii cited concerns related to parking availability, blocked driveways, higher traffic volumes, noise, and litter. Following extensive public comment, the City Council approved expanded pickleball use in April 2022, including daily access from 8 a.m. to sunset, additional trash cans, and updated signage. In July 2023, the courts were resurfaced and four permanent pickleball courts were installed through the Neighborhood Improvement Commission’s project funding.

Packet Page 68

Item No. 9.A. Page 2 of 3
Since the installation of permanent courts, the facility has become one of the most heavily used recreation amenities in Seaside. As usage has increased, staff continues to receive consistent feedback from residents living adjacent to the facility. Because court modifications were not designed with onsite parking, higher activity levels have resulted in significant spillover parking into surrounding residential streets. Residents report frequent congestion, blocked driveways, increased traffic speeds associated with drivers searching for parking, and general impacts on neighborhood livability. These issues mirror concerns raised in prior Commission and Council discussions, but the scale and frequency have intensified as pickleball activity has continued to grow.

To support an informed and productive discussion, staff will present updated Placer.ai visitation data that provides insight into peak usage periods, visitor origins, and other factors contributing to neighborhood impacts. This information is intended to help establish a shared understanding of current conditions and the pressures on the Wheeler Street neighborhood.

In parallel with the data presentation, staff will preview several concepts for Council consideration as part of a broader discussion about balancing recreational access with neighborhood livability. These concepts include exploring potential approaches to onsite parking, updating signage and facility communications, enhancing trash management, reviewing hours of operation, and continuing preliminary conversations regarding opportunities to expand pickleball court availability within the community. Staff will also highlight how regional factors—such as the pickleball ban in Carmel and the development of new courts in Del Rey Oaks—may influence future usage patterns and demand at Wheeler Street.

The purpose of this discussion is to outline these emerging concepts and receive preliminary Council guidance on how best to proceed. Based on that direction, staff will return at a subsequent meeting with more detailed analyses, conceptual designs, cost estimates, and potential policy options for Council consideration.

FISCAL IMPACT

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 9.B.

TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Dan Meewis, Assistant City Manager
DATE: November 20, 2025
SUBJECT: DISCUSS THE MAYOR'S YOUTH FUND POLICY

RECOMMENDATION
Conduct discussion regarding the existing Mayor's Youth Fund Policy, receive staff recommendations, and provide direction to staff.

BACKGROUND
The Mayor’s Youth Fund is a discretionary program established by the City of Seaside to provide financial assistance to students and nonprofit organizations serving local youth.

Created in the early 2000s, the Fund has evolved over time through several policy updates and continues to be supported through an annual contribution of approximately $60,000 from GreenWaste Recovery, Inc.

In keeping with GreenWaste’s environmental mission, all recipients are required to demonstrate how their activities support the City’s sustainability goals and align with the principles of “Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle.”Over the years, the Fund has supported a wide variety of youth initiatives, including:
• Youth sports leagues & teams
• Summer job programs and youth workforce initiatives
• Scholarships and youth-focused community projects
The Fund is governed by a formal policy and application process that defines eligibility, submittal procedures, and reporting requirements. Individual requests are reviewed by City staff and approved by the City Council.

HISTORY OF POLICY REVISIONS
Packet Page 71

Item No. 9.B. Page 2 of 4
City records indicate that the Mayor’s Youth Fund Policy has been revised on at least three occasions:
• 2011: Strategic planning and retreat documents reference a policy update. • 2012: City Council staff reports mention updated policy materials • 2018: Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Seaside discussed revisions, which was the latest revision to the policy.

Records prior to 2016 are incomplete, and earlier versions of the policy were not located in current archives. During the most recent revision in 2018, the Council approved the following changes to the policy:
• Adding activity check boxes to the application form.
• Identifying whether the fund serves as a reward or incentive • Requiring disclosure of other funding sources and their percentage contributions
• Emphasizing participation in “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle” activities. • Establishing a one-year ineligibility period for applicants who fill to submit the required closing report.
• Coordinating with the waste hauler to provide educational materials for applicants.

Over time, the application of the Mayor’s Youth Fund has evolved, prompting recent Council discussions on how best to define eligible activities, particularly whether scholastic programs conducted during the regular school day fall within the intent of the Fund. These discussions, along with related considerations such as coordination with the school district, allowable expenditures, and funding levels, form the basis for the current policy update. The following discussion areas are presented for Council review to ensure alignment on program intent, funding direction, and future implementation.

Program Purpose and Definition of Eligible Activities:

Clarify whether the Mayor’s Youth Fund is intended to support only extracurricular and community-based enrichment programs (sports, arts, civic projects, cultural and leadership activities) or whether school-based scholastic programs should remain eligible for funding. Council input is sought on defining the boundary between classroom and community enrichment.

Allowable Expenditures and Program Costs:

Review expanded eligible uses such as field rentals, supplies, uniforms, and modest payments for referees or instructors, and provide direction on any desired limitations or refinements.

Packet Page 72

Item No. 9.B. Page 3 of 4
Coordination with School District:

Discuss a proposed requirement for principal or district administrator sign-off on schoolaffiliated applications and whether additional coordination with the Monterey Peninsula Unified School District (MPUSD) is desired.

Funding Levels and Annual Allocation:

Confirm funding tiers and total program allocation levels, ensuring they reflect Council priorities and available contributions from GreenWaste.

Environmental Nexus and Community Benefit:

Discuss whether applicants are sufficiently meeting the program’s environmental objectives tied to the “reduce, reuse, recycle” requirements. Council may wish to determine if this expectation remains appropriate or should be elevated to a more prominent or measurable component within the policy.
(Attached is a list of all Mayor's Youth Fund recipients since 2020)

NEXT STEPS
The Council may choose to:

1. Discuss and provide guidance on potential updates or clarifications to the current policy.

2. Schedule a follow-up report with a proposed updated policy for review and adoption.

FISCAL IMPACT
None at this time.

MAYOR’S YOUTH FUND POLICY
Purpose: The Mayor’s Youth Fund was created to provide supplemental financial assistance to students and non-profit groups that provide services to improve the lives of young people living in the City of Seaside. A policy has been developed to standardize the evaluation of contribution requests and ensure that the funds are used appropriately to serve the City’s youth.

Eligible Applicants: Contributions will only be made to, or on behalf of, students or organized groups, such as schools and non-profit organizations based in Seaside and/or serving a majority of Seaside residents (50%) that are 18 years old or younger or enrolled in high school.

Faith based organizations may apply for contributions from the Mayor’s Youth Fund if the funding is not used to support religious activities such as worship, Sunday School, or religious instruction. In addition, activities funded by the Mayor’s Youth Fund must be open to all persons without regard to their religious affiliation.

Submittal of Contribution Requests: In order to request a contribution, the following information must be provided in writing:
 Name of the organization, person(s) benefiting, proposed use of the funds, total amount needed or fundraising goal.
 Description of other methods being used to raise funds and/or other contributors.  An explanation of how the group, activity, or event will benefit Seaside youth.  Written description of how the use of the funds will be specifically used for youth group activities/events and/or has a nexus to the goals related to recycle, cleanup, and “green” sustainability to ensure a healthy environment.
 How this request will provide a municipal benefit (ie., benefit the community).  Proof of non-profit organizations status (not a taxpayer’s I.D> number) and a current W-9 form.

Evaluation Process and Criteria: Contributions can only be made if approved by the City Council. Funding requests will be evaluated based on their consistency with this policy, including the following criteria.
 Scholastic, athletic, music, environmental and art activities will be considered for funding based on the quality of the proposed activity.
 Evidence of activities/events related to “reduce, reuse and recycle” to ensure a healthy environment.
 Contributions requests will be accepted from individuals and can be made to an organization on behalf of an individual member or student.  Contributions are only paid to organizations, such as non-profit groups and schools.  Contributions are intended to fund actual costs related to an event or activity. (Please see “Payment Process” information provided below.)
 Contributions from the Mayor’s Youth Fund are not intended to be the sole source of funds for an organization or program and will only be made to supplement other fundraising activities.
 How this request will provide a municipal benefit (ie., benefit the community).

 A representative from the organization is required to be at the Council meeting for their application to be heard. If no representative is present then the agenda item will be postponed to another City Council meeting upon notification by the applicant.  Incomplete applications will not be forwarded for Council consideration; applications not answering the question related to reduce, reuse or recycle are considered incomplete.

STREETS CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT PROJECT BUDGET

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the appropriation.

BACKGROUND
In 2020, the City applied for and received grant funds from the Active Transportation Program (ATP), the Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) and Measure X for the design and construction of the Broadway Avenue Corridor Improvements Project (Project). The Project will implement a road diet on Broadway Avenue from Fremont Boulevard to General Jim Boulevard, reducing Broadway Avenue from a 4-lane roadway to a 2-lane roadway with curb extensions, bike lanes, roundabouts, and crosswalks.

Improvements on Yosemite Street will include bicycle pavement markings and signage.

In July 2025, City staff was notified by the Transportation Agency for Monterey County (TAMC) that there were unaccounted Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) interest reserves, and that there was an opportunity to fund active projects exceeding their budgets. Staff requested additional funding for the Broadway Avenue Complete Streets Corridor Improvements Project in order to construct all phases of the project.

On August 27, 2025, the TAMC Board approved the City of Seaside's funding request, Packet Page 82

Item No. 9.C. Page 2 of 2
awarding $4,000,000.00 in RSTP grant funds for the Broadway Avenue Complete Streets Corridor Improvements Project. The funds must be expended by August 28, 2028.

Staff requests that the City Council authorize the Finance Director to appropriate the awarded funds into the Project budget. The Project is anticipated to go out to bid in Spring 2026, with construction expected to begin in fall 2026.

FISCAL IMPACT
The current total FY 25/26 Budget for the Broadway Avenue Corridor Improvements Project (Account No. 212-8950-9600) is $9,971,259.83. After the budget appropriation, the Project would have a total budget of $13,971,259.83.
