RECOMMENDATION
Approve the request.

BACKGROUND
Kindness Rocks 831 is requesting a donation of $3,000.00 from the Mayor's Youth Fund to assist with the cost associated with their Annual Spring Egg Hunt. The funds will go towards purchasing plastic eggs, items for the eggs, first, second, and third prizes, arts and crafts for all to enjoy, carnival games, rock painting supplies, face painting supplies, and bounce houses. They will have a booth for planting garden pots for the youth.

Their event will help strengthen community connections by bringing families, neighbors and local organizations together in a safe and positive environment. They will promote positive youth engagement, physical activity, and social connection.

They are partnering with ReGen for trash, compost and recycling. Their goal is to have some recycling trash cans set up throughout the park. They will also be cleaning up trash throughout the event. They will be using eco-friendly plates and cups. They also only use non-toxic painting products for rock painting. Sustainable Seaside will have a booth with information on recycling.

SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONTRACT WITH
GRANICUS, INC. FOR SMARTGOV PERMIT MANAGEMENT
SOFTWARE, IN THE AMOUNT OF $33,679.65, WITH A TERM
EXPIRING NOVEMBER 30, 2026

RECOMMENDATION
Approve contract.

BACKGROUND
The City utilizes SmartGov software provided by Granicus, Inc. as its primary permit management platform. The system supports core permitting functions, including application intake, plan review coordination, inspection tracking, fee processing, GIS integration, financial reporting, and public portal access. The platform enhances operational efficiency, supports interdepartmental coordination, and promotes transparency through its public portal.

The renewal proposal (Quote No. Q-485094, dated February 18, 2026) provides for continued subscription and integrated connectors necessary for full system functionality.

The renewal period covers December 1, 2025, through November 30, 2026.

The subscription includes:
• SmartGov Connectors (BlueBeam, Financial, GIS, Merchant, Parcel) Packet Page 80

Item No. 7.I. Page 2 of 2
• SmartGov Public Portal (public-facing self-service access) • User-based annual licenses
• System integrations necessary for automated financial extracts and parcel data updates
The total annual renewal cost is $33,679.65.

Continuation of this software is critical to maintaining uninterrupted permitting operations and ensuring public access to online permitting services. Failure to renew would result in disruption of permitting services and associated public-facing systems.

FISCAL IMPACT
The total contract amount is $33,679.65 for the subscription period ending November 30, 2026. Funding for this service is included in the approved Fiscal Year operating budget within the Community Development Department’s software and licensing accounts. No additional appropriation is required.

Government Code § 65400 requires all cities in California to submit an annual report to the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), outlining the progress made toward implementing the General Plan. Effective July 1, 2024, the OPR was renamed the Governor's Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (LCI). California law requires such reports to help ensure that the general plan is effective for, among other things, orderly growth and development, preservation and conservation of open-space land and natural resources, and the efficient expenditure of public funds relating to the subjects addressed in the General Plan.

DISCUSSION
The City's current General Plan was last comprehensively updated on May 16, 2024.

The Housing Element was certified by HCD on March 27, 2024. The General Plan is comprised of the eight State-mandated elements, and four additional optional chapters Packet Page 84

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This annual report is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as it is not a “project” as defined in CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5).

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with City Council review and City submission of this annual report to HCD and LCI.

City received a $1,000,000
CalHome ADU Loan in 2020 to
issue ten (10) $100K loans to
low-income homeowners for the
creation of ten (10) ADU's that
would be rented to low-income

Program 14: Preservation
of Publicly Assisted Low
Income Housing
In 2021, the City created an affordable
housing development non-profit called
Seaside Housing Collaborative whose
mission is to conceptualize, plan, entitle,
construct, acquire, sell or lease affordable
housing up to and including workforce
housing within the City of Seaside.
- Monitor Units at Risk: The City will keep
in regular contact with the five projects with
affordable units to monitor any change in
status or intent to maintain the projects as
affordable housing. The City will also
ensure that no affordable rental unit is
allowed to convert to a condominium
without meeting the requirements of the
City’s adopted condominium conversion
ordinance in Chapter 17.42 of the Zoning
Ordinance.
- Provide Tenant Education: If any of these
projects files a Notice of Intent to opt out of
affordability covenants, the City will work
with tenants to inform them of their rights
under federal and State regulations,
including receiving proper noticing. New
State law requires noticing the tenants
three years, one year, and six months
ahead of conversion.
- Work with Potential Priority Purchasers:

RECOMMENDATION
Accept the report.

BACKGROUND
State planning law (Government Code Section 65400) requires cities to provide a status report on the implementation of their Housing Element each year to the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The Housing Element APR must also be sent to the Governor's Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (LCI).

The Housing Element APR is prepared using forms and definitions adopted by HCD and includes progress towards meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) and status of Housing Element actions and programs that occurred during 2025.

HCD establishes specific reporting metrics outlined in the HE APR, changing annually to align with changes in state legislation. The 2025 HE APR consists of the following data tables:
• Table A: Housing Development Applications Submitted
• Table A2: Annual Building Activity Report Summary--New Construction, Entitled, Permits, and Completed Units

DISCUSSION
For the sixth cycle Housing Element, the City has been assigned a Regional Housing Needs Allocation of 616 units (86 very low; 55 low; 156 moderate; and 319 above moderate income units). In 2025, the City processed residential development activity across multiple stages of the permit lifecycle. The City received 93 residential permit applications, representing 94 housing units, and issued 68 residential permits, representing 70 housing units, including 54 units associated with applications submitted during the reporting year.

The City finalized 36 residential permits, representing 134 housing units that received final building permit approval (certificate of occupancy). Of these, 9 units were associated with applications submitted during the reporting year. The remaining 125 units were associated with permits applied for in prior reporting periods, including multi-unit projects approved in earlier years.

Additionally, on March 26, 2025, the Planning Commission approved a request to allow the construction of 60 manufactured dwelling units at 4386-87 Parker Flats Cutoff Road.

Staff has continued to work with the applicant to finalize an Affordable Housing Agreement which would designate nine of these units as low-income units.

On July 22, 2025, the City of Seaside issued final Certificates of Occupancy to the Sea Grove Apartment complex. This mixed-use project included 106 residential units, of which 16 were designated for low-income individuals.

Program 14: Preservation
of Publicly Assisted Low
Income Housing
In 2021, the City created an affordable
housing development non-profit called
Seaside Housing Collaborative whose
mission is to conceptualize, plan, entitle,
construct, acquire, sell or lease affordable
housing up to and including workforce
housing within the City of Seaside.
- Monitor Units at Risk: The City will keep
in regular contact with the five projects with
affordable units to monitor any change in
status or intent to maintain the projects as
affordable housing. The City will also
ensure that no affordable rental unit is
allowed to convert to a condominium
without meeting the requirements of the
City’s adopted condominium conversion
ordinance in Chapter 17.42 of the Zoning
Ordinance.
- Provide Tenant Education: If any of these
projects files a Notice of Intent to opt out of
affordability covenants, the City will work
with tenants to inform them of their rights
under federal and State regulations,
including receiving proper noticing. New
State law requires noticing the tenants
three years, one year, and six months
ahead of conversion.

City of Seaside
2026 Legislative Advocacy Platform
Purpose
The purpose of the City of Seaside Legislative Advocacy Platform is to guide the City Council and City Manager in considering legislative and regulatory proposals that may impact the City, and to ensure a timely, consistent, and strategic response to state and federal legislative matters.

This platform establishes clear direction for monitoring and advocating on legislation and regulatory actions in a manner consistent with the City Council’s adopted Seaside 2040 General Plan, Capital Improvement Program, and Strategic Plan.

The City shall advocate with “one voice” on identified priorities, while allowing flexibility for timely action during active legislative sessions. The advocacy platform will provide the Mayor, City Manager, or other designee, discretion to advance in best interests in a manner consistent with the goals and priorities adopted by the City Council. This platform is intended to be manageable, consistent, and tailored to the specific needs of the City of Seaside.

Plan Goals
• Advocate the City’s legislative interests at the State, County, and Federal levels. • Inform and provide information to the City Council and staff on the legislative process and key issues or legislation that could have a potential impact on the City. • Serve as an active participant with other local governments, League of California Cities, National League of Cities, and other associations on legislative and regulatory issues that are important to the City and region.
• Seek grant and funding assistance for City projects, infrastructure, services, and programs to enhance services for the community.

Packet Page 158
Guiding Principles
The City Council recognizes the need to protect City interests and local control, and to identify various avenues to implement its strategic and long-term goals. It is the policy of the City to proactively monitor and advocate for legislation as directed by the advocacy priorities and by the specific direction of the City Council.

This platform provides the Mayor, City Manager, or other designee, the flexibility to adopt positions on legislation in a timely manner, while allowing the City Council to set advocacy priorities to provide policy guidance. The City Council shall establish advocacy priorities and, so long as the position fits within the advocacy priorities, staff is authorized to take a position without council approval.

Whenever an applicable advocacy priority does not exist pertaining to legislation affecting the City, the matter shall be brought before the City Council at a regularly scheduled City Council meeting for formal direction from the City Council. The City Council has chosen to establish a standing committee of two elected officials and the City Manager, known as the “Legislative Ad Hoc Committee”, with the authority to adopt a position when consideration by the full City Council is not feasible within the time-constraints of the legislative process.

Unless specifically directed otherwise by the City Council, the City will not engage in matters unrelated to municipal governance, core services, or adopted priorities.

Legislative Advocacy Procedures
It is the plan of the City to proactively monitor and advocate for legislation as directed by the advocacy platform and by the specific direction of the City Council. This process involves interaction with local, state, and federal government entities both in regard to specific items of legislation and to promote positive intergovernmental relationships. Accordingly, involvement and participation in regional, state, and national organizations is encouraged and supported by the City Council.

Monitoring legislation is a shared function of the City Council and City Manager or designated staff. Legislative advocacy procedures are the process by which staff will track and respond to legislative issues in a timely and consistent manner. The City Manager, or other designee, will act on legislation utilizing the following procedures:

1. The City Manager, or designee, shall monitor state and federal legislation.

2. If proposed legislation aligns with adopted advocacy priorities, the Mayor and/or the City Manager may submit letters of support, opposition, or concern; provide testimony; coordinate with legislative advocates; and engage in coalition advocacy.

3. Positions may be adopted administratively if the matter aligns with this Legislative Platform and timing does not allow for full Council action.

4. Positions taken administratively shall be reported to the City Council.

5. If legislation falls outside adopted priorities, direction shall be sought from the City Council.

FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Andreas Baer, Assistant Public Works Director
DATE: March 5, 2026
SUBJECT: REVIEW DESIGN OPTIONS FOR THE LINCOLN-CUNNINGHAM PARK PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT (AGES 2–5)

RECOMMENDATION
Provide direction on the preferred playground.

BACKGROUND
Lincoln Cunningham Park Phase 1 - Arterial Trail Project is located in Lincoln Cunningham Park between Yosemite Street and Lincoln Street adjacent to San Pablo Avenue. The Project originally included construction of a concrete multi-use path through Lincoln Cunningham Park from San Pablo Avenue to Lincoln Street; pedestrian paths from the new multi-use path to Yerba Buena Court, Lindberg Court, and Serape Court; storm drainage improvements; curb ramp retrofits; sewer main repair; one onstreet accessible parking stall on Lincoln Street between Lincoln Cunningham Park and Havana Soliz Park; and seeding for erosion control. On January 2, 2025, the City Council approved adding additional scope of work to the project, including constructing underground utilities, additional site grading and storm water management, and pouring concrete for the central patio area, a 5-12 year old play area , and the 2-5 year-old play area.

Project funds in through out the project have been limited. However, staff have been able to present multiple options of other funding sources which have allowed for the purchase of the playground equipment for the 5-12 year-old play area. This was approved by the City Council on May 15 2025, but the installation was beyond the available funding at the time. At the Janurary 15, 2026 City Council meeting the council approved the reallocation of funds for the installation of the 5-12 year old playground equipment, as well as the purchase and installation of an additional playground for Packet Page 165

children ages 2–5. Completion of these improvements would allow the Lincoln Cunningham Park Renovation Project to be fully delivered and opened for community use. During the February 5, 2026, City Council meeting the council approved awarding a contract to JMS Concrete for the installation of the 5-12 year old play ground equipment. The installation should be completed by the end of April.

For the 2-5 play ground staff reached out to multiple playground suppliers and received five proposals, from four different suppliers. All suppliers provided pricing for supply and installation of the equipment through cooperative purchasing organizations (Sourcewell, & Omnia) which the City is party to and has made purchases through in the past. Individual equipment from each of these proposals are quoted separately and can be removed or traded out for council preference and budgetary reasons. The proposals are listed below

Kompan (Option 1) Omnia $ 148,157.06
Kompan (Option 2) Omnia $ 169,598.50
SPEC Play Sourcewell $ 165,778.77
The suppliers were each given background information on the park, renderings of the 5-12 year old playground, renderings from the Lincoln Cunningham Park Master Plan, design drawing for the 2-5 year old play area, and asked to meet design criteria including target age, accessibility, and coordination with the natural environment and near by park elements.

Staff will present the proposal options and receive input from council on their preferred playground assembly. Final purchasing agreement will then be negotiated with that supplier for the purchase and installation of the equipment that meets our available budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE
Pursuant to preliminary review of the activities associated with this Council action in accordance with Section 15061 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, this project is Categorically Exempt (Class 1, Section 15301 Existing Facilities). The project includes the repair & replacement of playground equipment and application to the extent possible of the current standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act (public health and safety standards).

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.B.

TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Greg McDanel, City Manager
DATE: March 5, 2026
SUBJECT: REPORT ON COMMERCIAL PROPERTY VACANCY TAXES IN

CALIFORNIA

RECOMMENDATION
Receive report.

BACKGROUND
At the request of the City Council, staff has prepared this informational report summarizing commercial property vacancy taxes that have been adopted or formally considered in California jurisdictions. This report reflects a review of publicly adopted commercial vacancy tax measures and municipal consideration of such measures in California as of March 2026. The report outlines the structural components of such measures, legal and voter-approval considerations under California law, administrative implementation experiences, and publicly reported policy observations. This report is provided for informational purposes only and does not evaluate ballot placement, revenue projections, or policy adoption specific to the City of Seaside.

Commercial vacancy taxes are policy tools designed to address prolonged vacancy of commercial properties, most commonly retail storefronts or office space. These measures generally impose a tax when commercial space remains unoccupied beyond a defined period, frequently six months or more within a calendar year. Vacancy taxes are typically structured to apply to ground-floor commercial storefronts or other defined commercial categories.

A commercial vacancy tax is aimed at influencing whether a property sits empty, but vacancy levels can be shaped by many other forces beyond the tax itself. Commercial vacancy levels are influenced by multiple economic and structural factors, including broader economic cycles, retail and office sector shifts, capital market conditions, construction timelines, and tenant demand. Proponents of commercial vacancy taxes generally describe them as mechanisms to encourage property activation, influence holding behavior, and in some cases generate revenue for defined public purposes.

Opponents commonly raise considerations related to administrative complexity, market-driven vacancy conditions, legal compliance requirements, and potential impacts on redevelopment Packet Page 168

Item No. 8.B. Page 2 of 3
timelines.Vacancy taxes remain uncommon in California, with publicly available information indicating that fewer than two percent of incorporated cities have adopted any form of vacancy tax.

CALIFORNIA JURISDICTIONS WITH COMMERCIAL VACANCY TAXES
San Francisco adopted a Commercial Vacancy Tax through Proposition D in March 2020. The tax applies to certain ground-floor commercial spaces that remain vacant for 182 days or more within a tax year. The tax is calculated based on linear frontage and increases annually for continued vacancy. Revenues are restricted for deposit into a Small Business Assistance Fund. Implementation includes annual reporting requirements and administrative compliance oversight. The program required adoption of implementing regulations and establishment of ongoing compliance administration.

Oakland adopted Measure W in 2018, establishing a Vacant Property Tax that applies to both residential and certain commercial properties meeting defined vacancy thresholds. The measure imposes a flat annual parcel-based tax for commercial and non-residential parcels that are vacant more than fifty (50) days, with revenues restricted for homelessness-related services.

Implementation included administrative rulemaking and compliance monitoring processes to support vacancy verification and enforcement.

At present, San Francisco remains the only California jurisdiction with a standalone commercial vacancy tax specifically designed to address storefront commercial vacancy. Staff is not aware of any additional California jurisdictions that have adopted standalone commercial vacancy taxes as of the date of this report.

JURISDICTIONS THAT HAVE CONSIDERED COMMERCIAL VACANCY TAX CONCEPTS Several California cities, including Mountain View, Sacramento, Los Angeles, and Berkeley, have publicly studied or discussed vacancy tax concepts. In these jurisdictions, councils ultimately pursued alternative strategies or adopted residential-focused measures rather than implementing standalone commercial vacancy taxes. These discussions often included consideration of economic conditions, administrative requirements, and legal factors. Other jurisdictions have explored a range of economic development and regulatory tools in lieu of vacancy tax adoption, including incentive programs, activation strategies, and process reforms.

STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS OF COMMERCIAL VACANCY TAXES
Commercial vacancy taxes typically define vacancy using a threshold number of days within a calendar year. Tax calculation methodologies vary and may include frontage-based formulas, persquare-foot assessments, flat parcel-based rates, or escalating rates tied to consecutive years of vacancy. Measures generally include defined exemptions for active construction, entitlement processing, hardship, force majeure, or active marketing efforts. Enforcement frameworks typically require owner declarations, audit authority, penalty provisions, and an administrative appeals process.

LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS UNDER CALIFORNIA LAW
The legal structure of a vacancy tax determines applicable voter approval requirements. If revenues are restricted to a specific purpose, the tax is generally structured as a special tax requiring twothirds voter approval. If revenues are deposited into the general fund for general governmental purposes, the measure is typically structured as a general tax requiring majority voter approval at a regularly scheduled municipal election. Additional considerations include compliance with Propositions 13 and 218, uniformity and equal protection principles, due process requirements, and potential regulatory takings considerations.

Packet Page 169

Item No. 8.B. Page 3 of 3

ADMINISTRATIVE CONSIDERATIONS
Implementation of a commercial vacancy tax requires vacancy verification protocols, compliance tracking systems, administrative rulemaking, appeals processing, and legal support. Determining whether a property meets a vacancy threshold may require review of leasing documentation, occupancy status, or other supporting evidence. Jurisdictions that have adopted vacancy taxes have established ongoing administrative systems to monitor compliance and enforce reporting requirements.

SUMMARY
Commercial property vacancy taxes represent one policy approach to address vacancies that have been adopted in limited California jurisdictions. San Francisco currently provides the primary example of a standalone commercial storefront vacancy tax, while Oakland includes commercial properties within a broader vacant property tax framework. Publicly available information indicates that adoption of commercial vacancy taxes in California remains limited and that structures vary widely where implemented. This report is provided for informational purposes to support Council's understanding of how such measures have been structured and implemented in other California communities.
