City Manager Greg McDanel introduced the proposed Fiscal Year 2026–27 “Stabilization and Recovery” Budget, framing the City’s current fiscal condition as a period of transition shaped by flattening recurring revenues, rising operating costs, increasing personnel and pension obligations, and development revenues that remain timing-dependent. The proposed budget emphasized proactive realism, disciplined restraint, long-term recovery, and the protection of essential services.
The City Manager noted that the General Fund reflects approximately $51.3 million in operating revenues, $52.8 million in operating expenditures, and an operating deficit of approximately $1.5 million. The presentation further highlighted the continued use of 22 frozen positions as an expenditure-control measure, reserves funded at approximately 88% of policy targets, and the need to treat reserve use as a limited bridge rather than a permanent operating strategy.
Finance Director Jessie Riley presented an overview of the proposed Fiscal Year 2026–27 Budget, including recent and proposed fiscal policies, all-funds and General Fund revenues and expenditures, fund balance trends, and long-term forecast considerations. The presentation identified all-funds revenues of approximately $72.3 million and expenditures of approximately $81.6 million, resulting in an operating deficit of approximately $9.3 million. The General Fund balance is projected to decrease by approximately $4.7 million, or 15%, with funding allocated for capital improvements and street maintenance and repair. Strategic options to strengthen the fund balance included evaluating discretionary operating expenditures, deferring or rescoping General Fund-funded capital projects, reducing General Fund transfers to street operations, reviewing use of the Section 115 Pension Trust, workforce realignment and service sustainability, and broader financial resilience strategies, including quarterly financial reporting beginning in October 2026.

City Manager Greg McDanel introduced the second night of the Fiscal Year 2026– 2027 Budget Sessin, framing the proposed budget as a stabilization and recovery budget intended to protect core services, maintain filled workforce capacity, and use reserves only as a limited transition bridge while the City continues longer-term recovery actions. Staff presented budget summaries and key highlights for Police, Fire, Recreation, Public Works and Engineering, the Capital Improvement Program, and the proposed fee schedule.
Department presentations reviewed Fiscal Year 2025–2026 accomplishments, Fiscal Year 2026–2027 goals, staffing levels, revenues, expenditures, commission work plans, and service priorities. The Police Department highlighted public safety initiatives, community outreach, traffic enforcement, illegal fireworks enforcement, technology advancements, and planned patrol vehicle purchases. The Fire Department reviewed service activity, incident trends, staffing, and budget needs.
The Recreation Department summarized programs, facility operations, community events, grant-supported initiatives, and the work plans of related commissions.
Public Works and Engineering reviewed core service areas, including engineering, Packet Page 20
Wednesday, May 27, 2026 City Council SPECIAL Meeting Page 2 utilities, facilities, parks maintenance, streets, vehicle maintenance, and capital project delivery.
Staff also presented the Fiscal Year 2026–2027 Capital Improvement Program, noting that the City’s Five-Year CIP includes 111 projects totaling approximately $198.3 million, with 27 projects totaling approximately $8.8 million recommended for appropriation in Fiscal Year 2026–2027. Of that amount, approximately $819,000 was proposed from the General Fund unassigned fund balance, with the balance funded through grants and other special revenue sources.
Finance Director Jessie Riley presented long-term General Fund projections and strategies to strengthen the fund balance. The forecast identified projected operating deficits, continued reserve pressure, and the need for structural alignment between ongoing revenues and expenditures. Staff reviewed potential strategies, including evaluating discretionary operating expenditures, deferring or rescoping General Fund-funded capital projects, reducing General Fund transfers to street operations, considering use of the Section 115 Pension Trust, workforce realignment, and advancing a broader financial resilience strategy focused on operational efficiency, revenue growth, economic development, expenditure discipline, and quarterly financial reporting beginning in October 2026.
Council received the presentations, discussed the stabilization framework, and provided direction for staff to continue refining the proposed budget, including any Council-supported adjustments to operating items, capital projects, street commitments, fee schedule changes, and reserve strategy assumptions prior to returning with the final budget adoption documents.

BY: Paul Blaha, Deputy Fire Chief
DATE: June 18, 2026
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING SUBMISSION OR
PARTICIPATION IN A FISCAL YEAR 2025 FEDERAL
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY ASSISTANCE TO
FIREFIGHTERS GRANT REGIONAL APPLICATION FOR SELFCONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS
RECOMMENDATION
Approve submittal or participation in a FY 2025 FEMA Assistance to Firefighters Grant Regional application for self-contained breathing apparatus.
BACKGROUND
The Fire Department seeks authorization to submit or participate in a FY 2025 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) Regional application with Monterey County partner agencies to replace self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Quotes are still being finalized; therefore, staff recommends authorization to apply for up to the applicable AFG Regional maximum award, anticipated not-to-exceed $2,000,000 in federal funds for the combined service area, plus the required 10% local match. SCBA replacement is a high-cost, critical lifesafety need, and any excess cost over the grant award, in addition to the cost share, will need to be prioritized in the following budget cycle.
The FY 2025 AFG Program supports equipment purchases that equip emergency personnel to recognized standards, improve firefighter safety, increase operational efficiency, foster interoperability, and strengthen community resilience. Regional applications are specifically intended to address common needs across multiple jurisdictions where a regional solution improves standardization and mutual aid operations. SCBA units are essential respiratory protection devices used by firefighters Packet Page 27
Item No. 7.D. Page 2 of 2
during interior structure fires, hazardous materials incidents, vehicle fires, confined space emergencies, and other immediately dangerous to life and health environments.
The Fire Department’s SCBA units are expiring in two years, creating an urgent need for replacement to maintain compliance, firefighter safety, and operational readiness.
Replacement costs are significant, making a regional grant application the most fiscally responsible path to address this critical equipment need. Without grant funding, the Fire Department and its partners may be forced to defer or stagger replacements, increasing maintenance issues, incompatibility, firefighter safety risk, and operational disruptions when expired equipment must be removed from service.
FISCAL IMPACT
Adoption of the resolution authorizes submission of, or participation in, the regional grant application and commits the City to provide the required local cost share if awarded. No immediate budget appropriation is requested at this time. If awarded, staff will return to the City Council as necessary to accept the award, appropriate revenues and expenditures, approve any budget amendments, and authorize the required local match.

DATE: June 18, 2026
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A POLICY ADDRESSING
DISRUPTION OF TELEPHONIC OR INTERNET SERVICE DURING
PUBLIC MEETINGS
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution approving the City of Seaside Technology Disruption Policy for public meetings pursuant to Senate Bill 707 and Government Code Section 54953.4.
BACKGROUND
SB 707 requires eligible legislative bodies to provide procedures for disruptions in remote public access, including service interruptions affecting two-way telephonic or audiovisual platforms used for public attendance and observation. The City’s proposed policy applies to City Council and other applicable City legislative body meetings where remote public participation is offered or required.
Under the proposed policy, if a disruption prevents the public from attending or observing a meeting remotely, the Presiding Officer, City Clerk, board or commission secretary, or designated staff will announce the disruption and staff will begin efforts to restore service. The open session must recess for at least one hour, or until remote access is restored, whichever occurs first. During that period, the legislative body may meet in closed session if otherwise permitted by law.
If remote access is restored, the meeting may reconvene and continue in the ordinary course. If remote access is not restored, the legislative body may adjourn the meeting or continue in open session after adopting, by roll-call vote, a finding that good-faith efforts were made to restore service and that the public interest in continuing the meeting outweighs the public interest in remote public access.
Packet Page 31
Item No. 7.E. Page 2 of 2
The policy also provides for documentation in the meeting minutes, including the nature and timing of the disruption, restoration efforts, whether service was restored, and any direction or findings made by the legislative body.

City of Seaside | SB 707 Technology Disruption Policy
CITY OF SEASIDE
Technology Disruption Policy
Policy: Disruption of Telephonic or Internet Service During Public Meetings
1. Background
Senate Bill 707 amended the Brown Act to require eligible legislative bodies to adopt a policy addressing how the agency will respond to disruptions in telephonic or internet service that prevent members of the public from attending or observing a meeting remotely. This policy is adopted by the City of Seaside to support continuity of public participation, transparency, and orderly meeting administration during technology disruptions.
2. Purpose
This policy establishes procedures for responding to a disruption in the telephonic or internet services that provide two-way remote public access to meetings of the City of Seaside City Council and other applicable City legislative bodies, as required by the Brown Act, including Government Code section 54953.4.
The policy is intended to preserve meaningful public access, guide the Presiding Officer and City Clerk or designated staff during disruptions, and document the City’s good faith efforts to restore remote access services when disruptions occur.
3. Definitions
For purposes of this policy:
• “City” means the City of Seaside.
• “Disruption” means any failure, outage, or interruption of telephonic or internet service that prevents members of the public from attending or observing a meeting via the City’s remote access services. • “Legislative body” means the City Council and any other City board, commission, committee, or other body subject to the Brown Act for which remote public participation is offered or required. • “Presiding Officer” means the Mayor, Chair, or other officer presiding over the meeting. • “Remote access services” means the two-way telephonic service and/or two-way audiovisual platform used by the City to provide real-time remote public attendance and observation of meetings, including platforms such as Zoom or another City-designated remote meeting platform.
4. Applicability
This policy applies to all open and public meetings of the City of Seaside City Council and other City legislative bodies at which remote public participation is offered or required under the Brown Act.
Nothing in this policy requires the City to offer remote public participation for meetings where remote participation is not otherwise required by law or authorized by the City’s adopted procedures. When remote access is offered, this policy governs the City’s response to service disruptions that prevent remote attendance or observation.
5. Procedures in the Event of a Service Disruption
5.1 Response to Service Disruption
If the Presiding Officer, City Clerk, board or commission secretary, or designated staff becomes aware of a disruption to the City’s remote access services that prevents members of the public from attending or observing the meeting remotely:
Packet Page 36
City of Seaside | SB 707 Technology Disruption Policy
1. The Presiding Officer, City Clerk, board or commission secretary, or designated staff shall promptly announce the disruption to the legislative body and the public attending in person.
2. The Presiding Officer may call for a recess of the open session or, when appropriate and consistent with the Brown Act, convene the legislative body in closed session.
3. City staff shall begin efforts to diagnose and restore the disrupted remote access service.
4. The meeting shall remain in recess for at least one hour or until remote access service is restored, whichever occurs first. The recess period may be extended if restoration efforts are ongoing and the Presiding Officer determines that an extension is appropriate.
5.2 Efforts to Restore Service
The City shall make good faith efforts to restore remote access services. Depending on the nature of the disruption, such efforts may include:
• Troubleshooting the remote meeting platform, webinar settings, or teleconferencing software; • Resetting or replacing audiovisual equipment, microphones, cameras, livestream equipment, or related hardware;
• Attempting alternative internet or telephone connection methods, if available; • Contacting City information technology support, platform support, audiovisual support, or other service providers;
• Switching to backup equipment, alternate meeting links, or backup platforms, if available and operationally feasible; and
• Providing updates to in-person attendees and, when feasible, through the City’s website, agenda page, or other public communication channels.
The City Clerk, board or commission secretary, or designated staff shall document the restoration efforts undertaken.
6. Reconvening the Open Session
6.1 Timing
The open session may be reconvened after at least one hour has elapsed from the time of disruption or as soon as remote access service is restored, whichever occurs earlier.
6.2 If Service Is Restored
If remote access service is restored before or at the time the meeting reconvenes, the meeting may continue in the ordinary course, subject to the Presiding Officer’s direction and all applicable Brown Act requirements.
6.3 If Service Is Not Restored
If remote access service has not been restored after one hour, the legislative body may reconvene and either:
5. Adjourn the meeting; or
6. Continue the meeting in open session by adopting, by roll call vote, the following finding or a substantially similar finding:
7. Public Comment Considerations
When feasible, the Presiding Officer may provide a reasonable opportunity for public comments that were delayed or interrupted by the disruption, consistent with the agenda, the Brown Act, and the City’s adopted meeting procedures.
Packet Page 37
City of Seaside | SB 707 Technology Disruption Policy
If the meeting continues without restored remote access following the required finding, the legislative body should consider the nature of the remaining agenda items, the urgency of City business, the availability of in-person public comment, and whether continuing the meeting best serves the public interest.
8. Recordkeeping
The City Clerk, board or commission secretary, or designated staff shall enter a brief statement into the meeting minutes documenting the disruption and the City’s response. The record should include, as applicable:
• The nature and approximate time of the disruption;
• The remote access service or platform affected;

• Any finding adopted pursuant to Section 6.3; and
• Any other relevant direction provided by the Presiding Officer or legislative body.

The original Communication Site Lease Agreement was executed in 1996 and provided for an initial five-year term with five additional five-year renewal terms. The current lease term expires on September 19, 2026.
T-Mobile has requested approval of a First Amendment to extend the lease and update certain business terms. The amendment would allow T-Mobile to continue operating its existing facilities at the site and would provide the City with increased lease revenue.
The amendment does not approve a new tower or new wireless facility.
The proposed First Amendment extends the existing lease through five additional fiveyear renewal terms beginning September 20, 2026. The lease will automatically renew for each successive renewal term unless T-Mobile provides written notice of nonrenewal at least 30 days before the expiration of the then-current term.

Item No. 7.F. Page 2 of 2
The amendment increases monthly rent from $2,469.68 to $2,750 beginning September 20, 2026. Rent will then increase by 5% annually beginning September 20, 2027, and on each anniversary thereafter. The amendment also updates certain administrative provisions, including the tenant notice address and related lease administration language. Except as specifically amended, the remaining terms of the original lease remain in full force and effect.

Use: Continued operation of existing telecommunications facilities Other terms: Original lease terms remain in effect except as amended
FISCAL IMPACT
Beginning September 20, 2026, monthly rent will increase from $2,469.68 to $2,750, resulting in additional rent revenue of $280.32 per month, or $3,363.84 annually on a full-year basis. Rent will increase by 5% annually beginning September 20, 2027, and on each anniversary thereafter.

A. BASIC RENT.
1. Upon the Commencement Date, Lessee shall pay City,
as rent, the sum of Six Hundred Dollars ($600.00) per month (the "Rent"). If the Commencement Date is other than the first day of a calendar month, Lessee may pay on the first day of the Term the prorated Rent for the remainder of the calendar month in which the Term commences, and thereafter, Lessee shall pay a full month's Rent on the first day of each calendar month, except that payment shall be prorated for the final fractional month of this Lease, or if this Lease is terminated before the expiration of any month which Rent should have been paid.
2. These amounts will be due and payable on or before
the first day of each month during the term of this Lease. The Rent will be paid in advance to the City, c/o P.O. Box 810, Seaside, CA 93955, without prior demand and without any abatement, deduction, or setoff.

delinquent if not received by the close of the business day on the 10th of each calendar month. Such unpaid Rent shall be subject to a late payment charge or penalty equal to ten percent (10%) of such unpaid amounts. This late payment charge is intended to compensate City for its additional administrative costs resulting from the Lessee's failure, and has been agreed upon by City and Lessee, after negotiation, as a reasonable estimate of the additional administrative costs which will be incurred by City as a result of Lessee's failure; the actual cost in each estimate is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to determine. This late payment will constitute liquidated damages and a penalty, and will be paid to City together with such unpaid amounts. Acceptance of the payment of this late charge will not constitute a waiver by City of any default by Lessee under this Lease.

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.A.
TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Andrew Myrick, Housing & Planning Manager
DATE: June 18, 2026
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND SECTION 17.52.230 OF THE
SEASIDE MUNICIPAL CODE TO CREATE CONSISTENCY
BETWEEN THE MUNICIPAL CODE AND CALIFORNIA LAW
REGARDING ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS AND JUNIOR
ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS. THIS ACTION IS NOT SUBJECT
TO THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA)
PURSUANT TO SECTION 21080.17 OF THE PUBLIC RESOURCES
CODE (SECOND READING - ROLL CALL VOTE)
RECOMMENDATION
Conduct second reading, open public hearing and adopt the ordinance.
BACKGROUND
Over the past several years, the State of California has passed a series of laws pertaining to the construction of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs). These laws provide the rules and regulations under which ADUs and JADUs are processed and constructed. These laws are generally updated on an annual basis, taking effect in January of each year.
When reviewing applications for ADUs, staff takes the most recent California rules into consideration. However, staff does periodically update the Zoning Ordinance to maintain consistency with California rules. The rules were last updated in March 2023 to incorporate changes made to California law through 2022 into the Zoning Ordinance.
The proposed Ordinance would incorporate additional changes made in 2023 through 2025. These include the following significant changes:
Packet Page 76
Item No. 8.A. Page 2 of 3
• Define that the size of ADUs and JADUs will be based upon the interior living space (ie excluding the exterior walls).
• Clarify that an ADU may not be denied based on an existing nonconforming zoning condition.
• Allow for different types of exempt ADUs to be constructed on the same parcel. • Allow for a maximum of eight detached ADUs at the site of an existing multifamily dwelling. • Provide that uncovered parking stalls that are removed to accommodate an ADU do not need to be replaced.
• Provide language relating to Deed Restrictions for JADUs • Provide updated material regarding timelines for the processing of applications for ADUs and JADUs.
• Establish a new appeal process for determinations of application incompleteness or application denial through the Planning Commission.
Additional material includes minor updates to requirements, language, and references (to adjust for a renumbering of ADU regulations within the California Government Code).
Staff is already processing applications with these provisions in place. However, the adoption of this Ordinance would bring the Municipal Code into compliance with California Law.
Planning Commission reviewed the proposed Ordinance on May 13, 2026 and unanimously (6-0) recommended that the City Council adopt the attached Ordinance.
Following adoption of the Ordinance, staff will provide a copy of the Ordinance to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) as required by law.

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.B.
TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Andrew Myrick, Housing & Planning Manager
DATE: June 18, 2026
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND CHAPTER 9.12 OF THE SEASIDE
MUNICIPAL CODE TO CLARIFY NOISE ORDINANCE
APPLICABILITY TO PERMITTED USES. THIS ACTION IS NOT
SUBJECT TO THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT
(CEQA) PURSUANT TO SECTION 15061(B)(3) OF THE CEQA
GUIDELINES (SECOND READING - ROLL CALL VOTE)
RECOMMENDATION
Conduct second reading, open public hearing and adopt the ordinance.
BACKGROUND
The CIty of Seaside has an interest in ensuring that residents' quality of life is not unduly impacted by excessive noise, while also allowing for normal levels of noise typically found in a suburban environment. The City of Seaside's Municipal Code addresses concerns related to noise in two locations. The first of these is located within Section 17.30.060 of the Seaside Zoning Ordinance. This Section implements the Noise Element of the City of Seaside's General Plan, and includes specific, quantitative measures (in decibels) of what constitutes excessive noise within the City's various Zoning Districts.
The second of these is Chapter 9.12 within the City's Public Peace, Morals, and Welfare Title, and is more focused on qualitative characteristics related to noise impacts.
Specifically, it relates to noises that are "excessive, unnecessary or unusually loud," a term which is defined in that Chapter as referring to "a noise disturbance which, because of its volume level, duration or character annoys, disturbs, injures or endangers the comfort, repose, health, peace or safety of any individual within the limits of the city."
Packet Page 95
Item No. 8.B. Page 2 of 3
As an example of how the City would evaluate noise complaints under the two provisions of the Municipal Code, if someone were to play a recording of "nails on a chalkboard," under Section 17.30.060 the noise would be evaluated based on features such as volume, location, and time of day, while under Chapter 9.12 the characteristics of the sound would be evaluated based on criteria identified in that Chapter (such as citizen complaints, proximity to residential sleeping facilities, the nature and zoning of the area, etc).
Section 9.12.040 of Chapter 9.12 includes exemptions which indicate that certain noises do not constitute "excessive, unnecessary or unusually loud noise." Examples of this include cries for assistance, emergency sirens, and religious worship activities. This includes an exemption for parades and other special events which have obtained permits. However, it does not include permitted uses which are producing noises normally associated with such as use.
The proposed amendment would amend Section 9.12.040 to add an additional exemption to clarify that noises normally expected to be emitted as part of a permitted use are not "excessive, unnecessary or unusually loud" noises. This does not prevent the City from enforcing violations of Section 17.30.060 if the volume of noise exceeds the amount specified therein. However, it would establish that normal operational noises are not by their nature "excessive, unnecessary or unusually loud." Staff is also examining Section 17.30.060 as part of its Zoning Ordinance Update to ensure that Section is in compliance with the General Plan. Changes to that Ordinance will be brought to the Council by staff at a later date.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this Item.

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.C.
TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Samantha Sakhrani, Human Resources Director/Risk Manager DATE: June 18, 2026
SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING TO RECEIVE THE ANNUAL AB 2561 REPORT
ON CURRENT JOB VACANCIES, RECRUITMENT, AND
RETENTION EFFORTS
RECOMMENDATION
Hold a public hearing, receive the annual report on the status of job vacancies, recruitment, and retention efforts pursuant to Government Code Section 3502.3, and accept and file the report.
BACKGROUND
In accordance with the recently enacted AB 2561, which amended Government Code Section 3502.3 and became effective January 1, 2025, the City of Seaside is required to assess, track, and report on job vacancies annually. The new legislation aims to address the operational and service delivery challenges posed by job vacancies by mandating that public agencies regularly evaluate and respond to their staffing needs. In compliance with Government Code Section 3502.3 and as part of the City’s ongoing commitment to effective workforce planning and service delivery, staff has prepared an analysis of allocated positions and current vacancies across all City departments for Fiscal Year 2025-2026. This report provides an overview of staffing levels, highlights departments with higher vacancy rates, and identifies potential areas for targeted recruitment and retention efforts.
DISCUSSION
The table below summarizes the number of allocated positions, current vacancies, and the percentage of vacancies relative to allocated positions for each City department:
Packet Page 103
Item No. 8.C. Page 2 of 4
Additionally, staff reviewed vacancy levels for each bargaining unit (Seaside City Employees/LIUNA, Seaside Firefighters Association, Seaside Management Employees' Association, Seaside Police Officers' Association, and Seaside Public Safety Management Association). No bargaining unit currently meets or exceeds the 20% vacancy threshold that would trigger additional reporting requirements under Government Code Section 3502.3.
KEY OBSERVATIONS
The overall vacancy rate across all departments is 4% (7 out of 161 positions).
Although the Building Department has the highest vacancy rate at 17% (1 out of 6 positions), that vacancy rate reflects the department's small workforce of 6 allocated positions, rather than a substantial staffing shortage within the department.
Other departments with notable vacancy rates include the Police Department (10%) and the Recreation Department (8%).

Packet Page 104
Item No. 8.C. Page 3 of 4
Several departments, including City Manager & City Attorney, Engineering, Finance, Human Resources, IT, Fire, Community/Economic Development, and Maintenance & Utilities currently have no vacancies.
Consistent with Government Code Section 3502.3, staff will continue to evaluate whether any policies, procedures, or recruitment activities may create obstacles in the hiring process and will identify potential changes as appropriate.
NEXT STEPS
Staff will continue to monitor vacancy trends and coordinate with department heads to address recruitment and retention challenges, particularly in departments with higher vacancy rates. Additional strategies may include targeted outreach, review of compensation packages, and process improvements in hiring.
CONCLUSION
City staff remains committed to maintaining appropriate staffing levels to ensure the effective delivery of services to the community. Staff will provide regular updates to the City Council regarding staffing trends and recruitment efforts as needed and in accordance with applicable law.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with receiving this report. However, ongoing vacancies may impact service delivery and could result in salary savings or increased overtime costs.

BACKGROUND
The Seaside Stars policy was approved by the City Council on February 3, 2022. The “Seaside Stars” provides a unique attraction that enhances and encourages a walkable downtown.

The primary purpose of the ad hoc committee is to review and score the nominee applications and make recommendations to the City Council on which nominee should receive a star each year. The committee also reviews the Seaside Stars Policy, location map for new stars, and recommends changes as necessary.
Timeline of Committee Work:

Plans for phase five Unveiling:
Staff is proposing a block party with a Seaside Stars induction ceremony with an invitation to the community to mingle and walk to see our newly installed Seaside Stars.
The date of the event is to be determined as it will depend on the ability of the contractor to obtain all the supplies needed for the installation. The estimated timeline is six to eight weeks from the time the order is made with the elements for each star.
The anticipated date for the installation is Saturday, October 10, 2026. This is also dependent on the weather.
Installation
FMG Custom Concrete, who has created and installed all of the stars in the program, and has submitted an estimate for phase five.
The Adhoc Committee and staff are requesting the following recommendations from the council for approval:

Item No.: 9.B.
TO: City Council
FROM: Greg McDanel, City Manager
BY: Dan Meewis, Assistant City Manager
DATE: June 18, 2026
SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT
COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS AND CITY COUNCIL
ALLOCATIONS FOR TRANSIENT OCCUPANCY TAX-FUNDED
NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS
RECOMMENDATION
Approve or modify the Neighborhood Improvement Commission’s recommended FY 2026-2027 project list; select projects for the City Council’s allocation; and direct staff to proceed with implementation.
BACKGROUND
The primary objective of the Neighborhood Improvement Commission (NIC) is "to make recommendations to the City Council on ways to improve the appearance of the city and elicit voluntary cooperation to beautify and minimize vandalism in the city." In accomplishing this objective, the NIC seeks input from Seaside residents, community volunteer groups, and collaborative efforts with other boards and commissions.
In July 2018, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1054 which directed 50% of all transient occupancy tax (TOT) generated by short-term rentals (STRs) to be directed toward community and park improvements, with the Neighborhood Improvement Commission providing recommendations to the Council for consideration and approval.
Since January 2026, the NIC has held multiple meetings regarding STR TOT fund allocation for Fiscal year 2026-2027 to make recommendations to the City Council. Staff has also provided additional recommendations for the Council's consideration for potential projects that were not selected by the Commission.

In addition, the City Council will determine which projects, if any, to fund with the Council’s separate allocation of approximately $171,541. Council may choose to fund projects from the NIC recommended list, the additional potential project list, or other eligible neighborhood improvement projects identified during Council discussion. Council may also elect to return all or a portion of the allocation to the General Fund.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Fiscal Year 2026-2027 budget included $393,000.00 for the Neighborhood Improvement Commission-recommended projects and $171,541.00 for City Councilselected projects. Unspent or unencumbered funds of the Commission do not automatically roll forward to the subsequent budget year unless a project is under contract prior to June 30, 2027.

RECOMMENDATION
Approve Project Plans and Specifications, award a construction agreement, approve a reimbursement agreement, and construction related consultant agreements.
BACKGROUND
The Broadway Avenue Complete Streets Corridor Improvements (Project) will implement a road diet along Broadway Avenue from Fremont Boulevard to General Jim Moore Boulevard, reducing the roadway from four lanes to two lanes. The Project includes roadway reconfiguration and striping; construction of seven roundabouts, curb extensions, and median improvements; installation of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)–compliant curb ramps; sidewalk and concrete improvements; street lighting; Packet Page 179
Item No. 9.C. Page 2 of 5
drainage modifications; signage and pavement markings; streetscape enhancements; and sanitary sewer upgrades. Sewer upgrades were added to the Project and provide significant efficiencies by avoiding future trenching and reconstruction of newly improved pavement, reducing overall construction costs through shared mobilization, traffic control, and restoration efforts, and minimizing repeated disruption to traffic and the surrounding community.
Project design began in 2023, focusing primarily on creating safety improvements and offering improved multi-modal transportation options. The City held community outreach meetings coordinated with Martin Luther King Jr. School of the Arts, Seaside Fire, Monterey Salinas Transit, and set up multiple simulations to test designs. Models were created to demonstrate traffic flow and emergency response. The final design includes improved aesthetics, landscaping, and architectural features continuing the lower Broadway improvements.
The City secured construction funding in the amount of $9.45M from the Active Transportation Program administered by Caltrans and $4M from the Regional Surface Transportation Program administered by the Transportation Agency for Monterey County for a total amount of $13.45M in construction funding for the corridor improvements. The upgrades to the sewer project will be paid by the Seaside County Sanitation District.
The Project Plans and Specifications were completed in March and packaged with the sewer plans. The Project was advertised for public bidding on April 9, 2026. A mandatory pre-bid meeting was held on April 23, 2026, with 13 prospective bidders in attendance, and a total of 5 bids were received on May 21, 2026.
The basis of the award includes corridor improvements (Schedules A–D) and sewer improvements within substantial restoration areas (Schedules E–J and O). Additive sewer improvements are included in Schedules K-N. The Total Project cost is the combination of the basis of award and additive sewer upgrades, Schedules A-O. Table 1 below shows the bid comparison from the responsive bidders.

The bids were reviewed by city staff and minor irregularities were identified. Public agencies may waive informalities or minor irregularities in a bid as long as they do not give a competitive advantage to a bidder over others. City staff identified a minor irregularity which reduced The Don Chapin Co. bid by $625.00. Based upon the bids received, The Don Chapin Co. (Chapin) is determined to be the lowest, responsive, responsible bidder. Chapin has completed several similar types of projects and has the reputation and work force necessary to complete this project.
On June 9, 2026, the Seaside County Sanitation District (SCSD) Board approved a reimbursement agreement to fund all sewer bid schedules for the sewer upgrades on Broadway Avenue. Consultant's will perform construction management and inspections services. The reimbursement agreement defines the roles and fiduciary responsibilities of both agencies and identifies SCSD as responsible for utility improvements in accordance with Sections 673 and 680 of the California Streets and Highways Code.
Under the agreement, SCSD will reimburse the City for all sewer-related construction costs, including a proportionate share of mobilization, traffic control, water pollution control, construction staking, and construction management and inspection services.
Reimbursement will be based on actual bid prices, including a contingency for sewer improvements, and proportional contract support costs. The estimated reimbursement from SCSD for its share of construction and related services is $2,968,000.00.
In support of the construction phase, Kimley Horn Associate will provide Design Services During Construction (DSDC) and Harris & Associates (Harris) will provide Construction Management and Inspection Services. Both consultants were selected through a Request for Qualifications/Proposal process. KHA designed the Project improvements and provided a proposal for DSDC for a total of $388,034.00 over the course of the construction and through project completion. Harris was selected to provide Construction Management and Inspection Services for the project for an amount not to exceed $1,638,529.00.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Project’s limits of construction are located in an urbanized area void of riparian habitat, wetlands, fisheries, or otherwise biologically sensitive habits and the Project will Packet Page 181
Item No. 9.C. Page 4 of 5
not impact or alter any historic structures or examples of the area’s history or prehistory. Improvements will be implemented within the existing public right of way with no expansion of the existing roadway and therefore categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(c) Existing Facilities.
FISCAL IMPACT
The construction agreement with The Don Chapin Co. is for an amount not to exceed $12,176,375.00, plus a construction contingency of ∼13% or $1,528,625.00, for a total Project construction costs of $13,705,000.00. The Broadway Avenue Complete Street Corridor Improvements Project is in the adopted FY 25/26 Capital Improvement Program as work is funded through RSTP and ATP grants with an available budget of $13,450,000.00 and $2,968,000.00 from the Sanitation District for a total Project budget is $16,418,000.00. There are sufficient funds in the Broadway Avenue Corridor Improvement project account No. 212-8950-9600 and the Broadway Avenue Sewer Upgrades project account No. 953-8820-9319 for the construction agreement, design services during construction, and construction management and inspection services as outlined above.

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Operating Budget, Investment Policy, Capital Improvement Program, Fee Schedule, Position Control List, Salary Schedule, Strategic Plan, and reserve amounts; and provide direction to staff regarding any final changes to be incorporated as part of implementation.
BACKGROUND
The purpose of this item is to present the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Operating Budget and related budget documents for City Council consideration and adoption. These documents establish the City’s operating, financial, staffing, capital, fee, investment, strategic implementation, and reserve framework for the upcoming fiscal year.
Staff began preparations for the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 budget in March 2026 following the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 mid-year budget review. The proposed budget has been developed through departmental review, revenue and expenditure analysis, capital improvement planning, and City Council budget discussions held on May 26th and 27th.
The Fiscal Year 2026-2027 budget and related policy documents are now being presented for Council consideration and adoption. If the City Council provides final direction as part of this item, staff will incorporate that direction into the final adopted budget documents and implementation materials. If Council directs substantive changes Packet Page 204
Item No. 9.E. Page 2 of 3
requiring further review, staff will return with a revised budget prior to June 30, 2026.
The proposed budget reflects the City’s continued effort to maintain essential services, preserve organizational capacity, support capital and infrastructure needs, and manage reserve use during a transitional financial period. Staff will continue to monitor revenues, expenditures, staffing, and capital project implementation throughout the fiscal year and return to the City Council with updates or budget amendments as necessary.
Strategic Plan
As part of the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 budget process, the City is updating the Strategic Plan as an internal implementation refresh to carry forward current priorities, sharpen near-term action items, and better align department work plans with the upcoming budget cycle. This refresh is intended to support organizational focus and accountability during the fiscal year and is not intended to replace a more comprehensive, multi-year strategic planning process. A broader strategic planning effort is anticipated to begin in January 2027, unless otherwise directed by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
Adoption of the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Operating Budget will establish the City’s appropriation authority for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2026. The final budget includes operating revenues, operating expenditures, capital improvement appropriations, approved staffing levels, fee schedule updates, salary schedule updates, reserve amounts, and related policy documents as set forth in the budget materials.

INVESTMENT POLICY
1 Adopted June 18, 2026
I. Introduction
The purpose of this document is to identify various policies and procedures that enhance opportunities for a prudent and systematic investment process and to organize and formalize investment-related activities. Related activities which comprise sound cash management include accurate cash flow projections, control of disbursements, expedient collection of revenues, cost effective banking relations and a short term borrowing program which coordinates investment opportunity with working capital requirements.
The ultimate goal is to enhance the economic status of the City of Seaside while protecting its pooled cash resources.
The investment policies and practices of the City of Seaside are based on state law and prudent money management. All funds will be invested in accordance with the City's Investment Policy and the authority governing investments for municipal governments as set forth in the California Government Code, Sections 53601 through 53659. The investment of bond proceeds are to be restricted by the provisions of relevant bond documents.
II. Scope
It is intended that this policy cover all short-term operating funds and investment activities of the City. These funds are accounted for in the annual audit report, and include:
General Fund
Special Revenue Funds
Debt Service Funds
Capital Projects Funds
Enterprise Funds
Internal Service Funds
Fiduciary Funds
This investment policy applies to all City transactions involving the financial assets and related activity of the above mentioned funds.

CITY OF SEASIDE AND THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF SEASIDE
INVESTMENT POLICY
2 III. Prudence (Standard of Care)
The City of Seaside operates its pooled idle cash investments under the prudent man rule (Civil Code Section 2261, et. seq.). In addition, Government Code Section 53600.3 provides that those persons to whom investment decisions have been delegated are trustees with a fiduciary responsibility to act as a prudent investor.
Investments shall be made with judgment and care - under circumstances then prevailing - which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived. This affords a broad spectrum of investment opportunities as long as the investment is deeded prudent under current law.
The standard of prudence to be used by investment officials shall be the "prudent person" standard and shall be applied in the context of managing an overall portfolio. All persons investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling and managing public funds shall act with care, skill, prudence and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims, to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the City.
It is the City's intent at the time of purchase to hold all investments until maturity to ensure the return of all invested principal dollars but sales prior to maturity are permitted.
IV. Objectives
A. Investment Criteria:
Government Code Section 53600.5 states: “When investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling and managing public funds, the primary objective of the trustee shall be to safeguard the principal of funds under its control. The secondary objective shall be to meet the liquidity needs of the depositor. The third objective shall be to achieve a return on the funds under its control”.
Simply stated, safety of principal is the foremost objective, followed by liquidity and return on investment (known as yield). Each investment transaction shall seek to first ensure the capital losses are avoided, whether they are from market erosion or Packet Page 210
CITY OF SEASIDE AND THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF SEASIDE
INVESTMENT POLICY
3 security defaults.
The primary objectives, in priority order, of the City's investment activities shall be:
1. Safety - Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. The City's investments shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure preservation of capital in the portfolio. The City shall seek to preserve principal by mitigating the two types of risk, credit risk and market risk. Investment decisions should not incur unreasonable credit or market risks in order to obtain current investment income. a. Credit Risk: Defined as the risk of loss due to failure by the issuer of a security.
b. Market Risk: Defined as the risk of market value fluctuations due to overall changes in the general level of interest rates.
2. Liquidity - The City's investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet its cash flow requirements. An adequate portion of the portfolio should be maintained in liquid short term securities which can be converted to cash and guarantee the City’s ability to meet operating expenditures.
3. Return on Investment (Yield) - The City's investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a market rate of return on its’ investments consistent with the constraints imposed by its safety objective and cash flow considerations. Yield is to be a consideration only after the basic requirements of adequate safety and liquidity have been met.
B. Market Rate of Return
The investment portfolio shall be managed to attain a market average rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles. This takes into account the City’s cash flow requirements and investment risk constraints, state and local laws and ordinances or resolutions that restrict the placement of short term funds.
C. Performance Standards
The investment portfolio shall be managed with the objective of producing a yield meeting or exceeding the average return on the one year U.S. Treasury. This index is considered a benchmark for low to moderate risk investment transactions.
Packet Page 211
CITY OF SEASIDE AND THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF SEASIDE
INVESTMENT POLICY
4 Therefore, they comprise a minimum standard for the portfolio’s rate of return.
The investment program shall seek to augment returns above this threshold, consistent with risk limitations identified herein and prudent investment principles.
This benchmark will be reviewed thoroughly and may be adjusted as required by market conditions to prevent incurring unreasonable risks to attain yield.
D. Diversification
The investment portfolio shall be diversified to prevent incurring unreasonable and avoidable risks regarding specific security types, individual financial institutions or maturity segments.
E. Public Trust
Public Trust - All participants in the investment process shall act responsibly as custodians of the public trust. Investment officials shall recognize that the investment portfolio is subject to public review and evaluation. The overall program shall be designed and managed with a degree of professionalism that is worthy of the public trust.
V. Delegation of Authority
The management and oversight responsibility for the investment program in hereby delegated to the Treasurer who shall monitor and review all investments for consistency with this investment policy. The City Manager and Treasurer shall jointly establish procedures to implement and monitor this investment policy. Such procedures shall include explicit delegation of persons responsible for investment transactions. No person may engage in an investment transaction except as provided under the limits of this policy.
VI. Ethics and Conflict of Interest
Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activities that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program, or that could impair their ability to make impartial decisions.
VII. Selection of Financial Institutions and Broker/Dealers To provide for the optimum yield in the City's portfolio, the City's procedures shall be Packet Page 212
CITY OF SEASIDE AND THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF SEASIDE
INVESTMENT POLICY
5 designed to encourage multiple bids and offers on investment transactions from an approved list of broker/dealers. The Treasurer shall maintain a list of authorized broker/dealers and financial institutions which are approved for investment purposes, in the State of California, and it shall be the policy of the City to purchase securities only from authorized institutions or firms. The investment guidelines and procedures shall identify the criteria under which brokers and dealers may qualify to conduct business with the City.
In order to assist in identifying qualified financial institutions, the Treasurer shall forward copies of the City’s investment policy to those financial institutions with which the City is interested in doing business and will require written acknowledgment of the policy. In addition, all dealers approved to do business with the City shall receive a copy of the Investment Policy annually. Confirmation of receipt of this policy shall signify that the dealer understands the Investment Policy and intends to present only appropriate investments.
VIII. Permitted Investment Instruments
Allowable investment instruments are defined in the California Government Code Section 53600 et. seq., as amended. If the Code is further revised to allow additional investments or is changed regarding the limits on certain categories of investments, the City is authorized to conform to these changes, excluding those changes that may be prohibited by this policy. Where Government Code Section specifies a percentage limitation for a particular category of investments, that percentage is only applicable only at the date of purchase.

1. Government obligations pledged by the full faith and credit of the United States for the payment of principal and interest.

INVESTMENT POLICY
8 Table A summarizes the maximum percentage and maturity limits, plus other constraints, by instrument, established for the City's total pooled funds portfolio.
IX. Safekeeping of Securities
To protect against fraud or embezzlement or losses caused by collapse of an individual securities dealer, all securities owned by the City shall be held in safekeeping by a third party bank trust department.

As defined in Government Code Section 53601, “no investment shall be made in any security… that at the time of investment has a term remaining to maturity in excess of five years, unless the legislative body has granted express authority to make that investment either specifically or as a part of an investment approved by the legislative body no less than three months prior to the investment.” XI.

Certain investments are prohibited under Government Code Sections 53601.6 and 53631.5. Security types which are prohibited include, but are not limited to:
(a) "Complex" derivative structures such as range notes, dual index notes, inverse floaters, leveraged or deleveraged floating rate notes, or any other complex variable rate or structured note.
(b) Interest only strips that are derived from a pool of mortgages or any Packet Page 216
CITY OF SEASIDE AND THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF SEASIDE
INVESTMENT POLICY
9 security that could result in zero interest accrual if held to maturity. (c) Reverse Repurchase Agreements.
Purchasing these types of instruments does not coincide with this Policy’s objectives and would require a thorough review and monitoring of the underlying security. Although some of these transactions are legal under Government Code, they do not meet the objectives contained herein.
By virtue of the allowable investment in the State Pool, the City is investing idle cash with a large number of government agencies. The Pool is managed by outside administrators and are subject of the Government Codes as well as polices put in place by their governing boards. The Pool’s investment policy may allow for investment in some of the prohibitions noted above for Seaside. Investment in the State and County Pools is permitted, assuming a diminutive portion of their portfolio’s (10% or less) are tied to the high-risk products noted above. The Treasurer is responsible to monitor and review the Pool’s portfolio on an ongoing basis. The City shall take any necessary action should the Pool exceed the allowable 10% limit.
XII. Reporting Requirements

12 GLOSSARY OF TERMS
Bankers' Acceptances - negotiable time drafts or bills of exchange drawn on and accepted by a commercial bank. Acceptance of the draft obligates the bank to pay the bearer the face amount of the draft at maturity. In addition to the guarantee by the accepting bank, the transaction is identified with a specific commodity. The sale of the underlying goods will generate the funds necessary to liquidate the indebtedness. Banker's Acceptances are usually created to finance the import and export of goods, the shipment of goods within the United States and the storage of readily marketable staple commodities. Banker's Acceptances are sold at a discount from par and the amount and maturity dates are fixed. Bankers' Acceptances have the backing of both the bank and the pledged commodities with no known principal loss in over 70 years. State law permits cities to invest up to 40% in bankers' acceptances.

State law permits cities to invest up to 30% in commercial paper.
Credit Risk - Defined as the risk of loss due to failure of the issuer of a security.
