CITY MANAGER’S/STAFF’S REPORT
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 20, 2024
__________________________________________________________________________ ITEM NO: A.

SUBJECT: Consideration of a Resolution Directing the City Engineer to Initiate and Prepare the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Engineer’s Report, Declaring Intention to Levy and Collect the Annual Assessment for Services rendered for Landscaping Lighting and Maintenance District No. 1, and providing notice of public hearing on the proposed assessments.
______________________________________________________________________________ BACKGROUND: The City originally established a Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District (“LLMD” or “District”) in 1984. The purpose of the District is to pay for landscaping, lighting, and other improvements plus services in an identified public area.

Within the District, individual sub-zones are established to create further refined areas that directly benefit from the services provided, which may differ from zone to zone. Currently, there are 10 individual zones throughout the City.

In order to levy and collect the assessment, the City must go through several formal steps, the first of which is to adopt a resolution that describes any proposed new improvements or any substantial changes in existing improvements for the LLMD and which directs the City Engineer to prepare a report. This report will have the following information pursuant to Streets & Highways Code (“SHC”) Section 22567:
(a) Plans and specifications for the improvements.
(b) An estimate of the costs of the improvements.
(c) A diagram for the assessment district.
(d) An assessment of the estimated costs of the improvements. (e) If bonds or notes will be issued pursuant to SHC Section 22662.5, an estimate of their principal amount.

After adopting the preliminary Engineer’s Report, State law requires the City to hold a public hearing to hear any protests regarding the proposed assessments. Staff is recommending that the city conduct the public hearing at its regular meeting on July 1, 2024. Prior to the public hearing, the City will notice in the paper on June 19 and June 26, with the first notice being a minimum of ten (10) days prior to the public hearing.

DISCUSSION: Staff anticipates continued maintenance or replacement of improvements to restore and repair existing landscaping areas. Staff does not foresee any substantial changes to the existing improvements beyond ongoing maintenance proposed for the LLMD for Fiscal Year 2024-25.

The proposed timeline for the Annual 2024-25 LLMD Report is as follows:

May 6: Council Approval of Proposed Rates and Notice for Prop 218 May 17: Public Notices for Prop 218 Letter mailed to Property Owners May 20: Council Direction to Initiate and Prepare the Engineer’s Report May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 1
May 20: Council Declare Intent to Levy Assessment and set public hearing July 1: Council Action to approve Engineer’s Report to levy annual assessments July 1: Public Hearing for proposed Prop 218 assessment increase July 1: Public Hearing for intent to levy annual assessments July 31: Deadline to send Tax Assessments to Fresno County Tax Collector FISCAL IMPACT: Cost for the maintenance, utilities, and incidentals are intended to be funded by the assessments levied on the parcels within the LLMD. If any costs exceed the assessments collected for labor costs, utility costs, replacement fixtures, or other unforeseen improvements., the City will need to determine whether to reduce the level of service within the budgeted amount or subsidize the shortfall from the General Funds as a Contribution to the LLMD as described in the SHC Section 22658. However, subsidizing shortfalls of the LLMDs could be considered inequitable due to the fact that residents outside the LLMD boundaries are contributing monies to a benefit which they do not directly receive.

The Council approved on May 6, 2024, for Staff to proceed with a Proposition 218 process to increase the maximum allowed assessment for certain zones within the LLMD. This process will include sending a Prop 218 letter to each affected parcel describing the proposed increase and protest process.
______________________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that City Council adopt:

A) a Resolution directing the City Engineer to prepare the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Engineer’s Report for the Landscape Lighting and Maintenance District No. 1.

B) a Resolution declaring intention to levy and collect the annual assessment for services rendered in the Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 1, and providing notice of public hearing on the proposed assessments on July 1, 2024. ______________________________________________________________________________ _______/s/____________________ _5/16/2024_____________

COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 20, 2024
__________________________________________________________________________ ITEM NO: B.

SUBJECT: Consideration of a Resolution awarding contract to D&G Fence Company, Inc. for the Brentlinger Park Fence Replacement Project ______________________________________________________________________________ BACKGROUND: The Brentlinger Park is currently fenced on the west and south sides by fences for security and safety. The west side fence is an existing 6-foot-tall chain-link fence separating the park property along an existing Consolidated Irrigation District (“CID”) open canal. The condition of the existing fence has been determined by Public Works to be in disrepair and needs to be replaced. The south side fence bordering Rose Avenue from the southwest corner of the park to the tennis courts is currently fenced by a 6-foot ornamental metal fence (wrought iron fence). The condition of the existing fence is in disrepair and has been deemed unsafe.

Public Works Staff established the scope and quantities of fencing to be removed and replaced. The scope includes replacing several ornamental metal gates along Rose Avenue.

The proposed chain-link fence will be constructed according to the current City Standard M2. The proposed ornamental metal fence will be constructed based on a fence detail provided by the City Engineer.

DISCUSSION: The Project was advertised for bid on April 24, 2024, and May 1, 2024. The Project consisted of a Base Bid and an Add Alternate. The Add Alternate bid items included removal and replacement of the existing concrete mow strip at the ornamental metal alignment along Rose Avenue. As stated in the Project Specifications, the low bid for the Project shall be based on the lowest Base Bid without consideration of the Additive Alternate.

Bids were received from six (6) contractors on May 9, 2024, as follows:

Contractor Base Bid Add Alternate Total Bid
D&G Fence Company $117,761.25 $9,984.00 $127,745.25
Fresno Fence Connection $175,662.00 $16,692.00 $192,354.00 All Steel Fence, Inc. $196,317.16 $17,362.80 $213,679.96 Ace Fence Company $203,370.24 $6,427.20 $209,797.44
AJ Excavation, Inc. $212,563.00 $37,440.00 $250,003.00
Marko Construction Group, Inc $350,235.00 $21,840.00 $372,075.00 Engineer’s Estimate $158,776.00 $7,176.00 $165,952.00
The bids were analyzed, and it was determined that D&G Fence Company submitted the lowest responsive and responsible base bid and as such, Staff recommends that they be awarded the contract.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The estimate cost for the construction phase of the project is $159,680.25, as detailed below:

CITY MANAGER’S/STAFF’S REPORT
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 20, 2024
__________________________________________________________________________ ITEM NO: C.

SUBJECT: Consideration of a Resolution Approving the Project List for Senate Bill 1 (SB 1) Funding for FY 2024-2025
______________________________________________________________________________ BACKGROUND: On April 28, 2017 the Governor signed Senate Bill (“SB”) 1 (Beall, Chapter 5, Statutes of 2017), which is known as the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. To address basic road maintenance, rehabilitation and critical safety needs on both the state highway and local streets and road system, SB 1:
• increased per-gallon fuel excise taxes;
• increased diesel fuel sales taxes and vehicle registration fees; and • provided for inflationary adjustments to tax rates in future years.

In 2017, the State Controller started depositing various portions of this new funding into the newly created Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (“RMRA”). A percentage of this new RMRA funding is apportioned by formula to eligible cities and counties pursuant to Streets and Highways Code (SHC) Section 2032(h) for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on the local streets and roads system.

In order to be eligible for this funding, recipient cities and counties must:
• develop and submit a list of projects to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) each fiscal year;
• develop and submit a project expenditure report to the CTC each fiscal year; and • comply with all requirements including reporting requirements for RMRA funding.

The deadline for recipient cities and counties to submit their project lists for the 24/25 fiscal year is July 1, 2024. All proposed projects must be adopted by local agency resolution.

DISCUSSION: The Selma Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget is currently in development with the 10-year CIP adopted by the Council on March 4, 2024. The City is projected to receive $632,566 in RMRA funding for the 24/25 Fiscal Year. The following projects from the 10-year CIP are proposed by Staff to be included in the RMRA project list:
• South Mill Ditch Avenue Overlay
• Second Street Reconstruction
Both projects have been included in the 24/25 CIP budget and are proposed for construction in the 25/26 fiscal year. The scope for both projects include reconstruction of roadway structural sections and upgrades to curb ramps to current ADA Standards.

May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 14
FISCAL IMPACT: The Engineer’s estimate for these projects is as follows:

South Mill Ditch Avenue Overlay $447,000
Second Street Reconstruction $757,350
Total $1,204,350
The estimated useful life of the projects is 20-25 Years. Estimated completion date is December 2026.

The projects are scalable depending on the funds available from SB1. ______________________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the Resolution Approving the Project List for Senate Bill 1 (SB 1) Funding for FY 24/25.

CITY MANAGER’S/STAFF’S REPORT
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 20, 2024
__________________________________________________________________________ ITEM NO: D.

SUBJECT: Consideration of a Resolution Approving and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a New Agreement to Extend A Lease with Cal Water for the Use of the Well Property at 2831 W. Front Street and Selma Tower at 1710 Tucker Street for up to 10 Years
______________________________________________________________________________ BACKGROUND: The City of Selma has been in a lease agreement with Cal Water for the use of the property located at 2831 W. Front Street (“Well Property”) since 2013. The City has provided Animal Services from the facilities at this property since that time. As the City continues to provide Animal Care Services from this same location, CalWater has allowed Selma to continue with the same use at this location. However, it is in the best interest of both parties to renew the expired lease agreement to ensure continued operations and protect the interests of both parties.

DISCUSSION: After discussions between Cal Water and City Staff, Staff is recommending an agreement which extends the lease for a term of up to 10 years to commence on January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2033. Additionally, the City would ask for an annual lease extension for each year following the end of this lease agreement should both parties agree.

FISCAL IMPACT: The lease agreement requires no payment to either party, as the City allows Cal Water the use of the cell tower located at 1710 Tucker Street (“Selma Tower”).

There is a minimal maintenance cost which is built into the City’s building maintenance program.
_____________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION: Approve a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a New Agreement to Extend A Lease with Cal Water for the Use of the Well Property and Selma Tower.

CONFIRMATION OF LEASE
(SEL/2831 W Front Street)
This CONFIRMATION OF LEASE (this Agreement), effective as of January 1, 2024, is made by and between CALIFORNIA WATER SERVICE COMPANY, a California corporation and public water utility (Cal Water) and the CITY OF SELMA, a California municipal corporation (the City of Selma), who may each be referred to as a Party and together as the Parties.

BACKGROUND
A. On June 1, 2013, Cal Water, as the “Landlord”, and the City of Selma, as the “Tenant”, entered into that unrecorded Commercial Ground Lease, effective June 1, 2023 (the Lease). Under the Lease, Cal Water leased to the City of Selma the Property and the Building at 2831 W Front Street, City of Selma, State of California, then identified by APN 388-02-054 (together the “Premises” under the Lease) for the Term and the permitted uses that are all more particularly defined under the Lease.

B. On or around December 11, 2013, Cal Water consented to the City of Selma’s sublease of the Premises to Second Chance Animal Shelter of Selma, a California non-profit corporation (Second Chance). That sublease was terminated on or about December 31, 2023, and the City of Selma received the reversion of the leasehold. The City of Selma resumed possession of the Premises on January 1, 2024.

C. While the Lease expired by its terms on December 31, 2023, the City of Selma has been occupying the Premises on a holdover basis. While the City of Selma intended to exercise its option under Section 1.3.3. of the Lease to extend the Term of the Lease, the City of Selma did not provide Cal Water with the required notice under the Lease.

D. Cal Water is willing to extend the Term of the Lease under Section 1.3.3. in consideration for the confirmation of certain facts and conditions that are relevant under the Lease, and to the City of Selma’s acceptance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Background, the covenants below, and other good and valuable consideration, the Parties confirm or agree as follows:

1. Confirmations

1.1. Lease. The Lease, as amended by the Addendum attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A, constitutes the Lease. There are no other agreements between the Parties, whether written or oral, express or implied, concerning the letting, occupancy, or permitted use of the Premises by the City of Selma or any other person or party except as provided under the Lease.

May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 24

CITY MANAGER’S/STAFF’S REPORT
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 20, 2024
__________________________________________________________________________ ITEM NO: E.

SUBJECT: Approve a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a New Agreement for the Adoption of Retired K9, “Onyx” to Selma Police Officer Wyatt Gorman
______________________________________________________________________________ BACKGROUND: The Selma Police Department has utilized K-9 dogs over the past three decades. Through the course of this program, it has become common practice that a K-9 that has completed his service is officially retired. Once deemed the K-9 is no longer able to perform its law enforcement duties, the Department offers its handler the opportunity to adopt the K-9 as the handler and K-9 have a bond which ensures the best care for the K-9 as it lives out its life.

DISCUSSION: The Selma Police Department has owned and utilized the K9 Officer Onyx as a Patrol and Firearms K9 for the last 5 years. After serving our department, K9 Onyx has been deemed unable to continue his service as a Police K9 due to his age and his assigned handler has begun work with another law enforcement agency.

FISCAL IMPACT: There would be no negative fiscal impact on the City as the K-9 Adoption Agreement would be in exchange for consideration in the amount of $1.00. This would be paid by the person Adopting K-9 Onyx.
________________________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION: Approve a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a New Agreement for the Adoption of Retired K9, “Onyx” to Selma Police Officer Wyatt Gorman.

CITY MANAGER’S/STAFF’S REPORT
CITY COUNCIL MEETING:

ITEM NO: 1.

SUBJECT:

DISCUSSION: The City Council held a budget workshop on April 5, 2024, to discuss Council’s budget priorities for the upcoming fiscal year. At this meeting, the City Manager and Department Heads provided information with regard to proposed operational and capital expenditures. The City Council provided feedback to staff regarding items that should be included in the FY 25 budget, including:
• Funding to Address Homelessness and Unhoused Population ($60,000) • BID Downtown Storefront Improvement Grant Program ($100,000) • New and Carry-Over Funding for Downtown Speakers and Trees ($80,000) • New Funding for Downtown Lighting ($80,000)
All of these requested items have been included in the current Draft FY 24-25 Budget Proposal.

General Fund Revenues
Property Taxes
While overall tax receipts are projected to come in higher in FY 25 than in FY 24, the increase is mostly due to larger property tax receipts generated by new development and higher property valuations by the Fresno County Assessor’s Office. Overall, general fund property tax revenue is projected at $4,804,547.

Sales & Use Tax
Sales and Use Tax revenue is projected to end the current fiscal year lower than budgeted by about $509,000 and are estimated to come in at around $8,820,609, compared to $9,323,000 as budgeted. In FY 25, our projected Sales Tax revenue is $9,042,000, a 3% decrease from the FY 24 budget.

ARPA
One of the major differences in the new proposed budget will be the absence of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds, which in the previous two fiscal years were utilized to support general operations as well as capital projects. In FY 24, ARPA contributed $880,000 to the General Fund. Going forward in FY 25, ARPA funds will no longer be a source of revenue.

Review of Draft 2024-2025 City of Selma Fiscal Year Budget May 20, 2024
May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 45
Overall, the Draft FY 24-25 Budget Proposal is for a total of $51,378,002, with the General Fund making up a total budget of $19,140,872, representing a total decrease of 15.37% or about $3 million dollars, relative to the FY 23-24 adopted General Fund budget.

Staff has prepared a visual presentation with more details and highlights regarding the Draft FY 24-25 Proposed Budget.

RECOMMENDATION: Information and Discussion Only. Final Budget Proposal will be presented for adoption at the June 3rd, 2024 City Council Meeting. ___/s/___________________________________ ____05/20/2024 Fernando Santillan, City Manager Date

CITY MANAGER’S/STAFF’S REPORT
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 20, 2024
______________________________________________________________________________ ITEM NO: 2.

SUBJECT: Discussion of Development Related Fees with Regional Comparison ______________________________________________________________________________ BACKGROUND:

At the March 18, 2024, regular meeting, the City Council requested an item to discuss fees associated with development. The fees to be reviewed included Development Impact Fees and Permit Fees.

As the analysis was being prepared, City staff received a letter from Nick Sahota, President of Central Valley Engineering and Surveying (CVEAS), that identifies a concern regarding the City’s fees associated with the development (Attachment 1). Specifically, the project in question is the Casa de Villa apartment project that consists of 40 multi-family units and future commercial development.

Mr. Sahota identifies five cities which may show a “discrepancy” with how the City’s fees are levied. Additionally, he identifies per unit costs for City fees as approximately $20,000 per unit, and approximately $35,000 per unit when outside agency fees are included.

DISCUSSION:

To assess development related fees as requested by the Council, a 40-unit apartment project consistent with the Casa de Villa project was the basis for comparison across the nine cities reviewed.

The cities being reviewed consist of cities that are smaller, larger, or similar in size to Selma.

Furthermore, Staff included fees that were readily available at the time the review was being conducted. Inquiries were made to other cities where responses for clarification or estimates were not received in a timely manner and, therefore, could not be used in the analysis.

Building Permit Fees
Building permit fees are divided into two categories, Plan Check Fees and Permit and Inspection Fees.

The Plan Check Fees were adopted by the City Council in 2019 and consists of 65% of the Building Permit and Inspection Fee. For projects that offer multiple similar buildings, the City offers a Master Plan Check that reduces the cost to repeatedly plan check the same proposed structure. By utilizing the Master Plan Check, an applicant may submit a structure, such as model home, that will be built multiple times. When the applicant is ready to pull a building permit, they will not be required to have the structure plan checked, as it has already been approved by the Department. The project would simply pay the Permit and Inspection fees for the identified Master Plan and begin construction. This method of permitting is utilized May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 47
heavily by home builders or modular builders who will be constructing identical structures within a jurisdiction.

The Permit and Inspection Fees were updated and adopted as part of the 2021 Fee Study that was adopted by the City Council in November 2021. The calculation of the Permit and Inspection Fees are based, generally, on a project’s estimated construction value. For purposes of consistency, the City uses the International Code Council’s Building Valuation Data that is updated twice a year. The calculation utilizes average costs include foundation work, structural and nonstructural building components, electrical, plumbing, mechanical and interior finish material based on occupancy and construction type, which is required information on the building plans. The current building permit fees are shown below:

$1,000,001 and higher $8,129.00 for the first $1,000,000 plus $5.30 for each additional $1,000 or fraction thereof.

For purposes of Staff’s analysis, $5,000,000 was used as the construction costs for the proposed project. Based on the adopted fees identified, the Plan Check Fee and Permit and Inspection Fee would be $3,812.77 and $29,329, respectively, totaling $33,141.77. In comparison throughout the region, the City ranks 5th for a $5,000,000 project, with the average being approximately $39,378, as shown below:

Agency Name Total Plan Check and Permit Fees
Reedley $9,254.44
Kerman $21,772.00
Sanger $26,600.00
Fresno $26,970.35
Selma $33,141.77
Kingsburg $33,482.00
Fowler $34,120.00
Visalia $55,200.00
Dinuba $68,640.00
Tulare $84,603.20
Average $39,378.38
May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 48
Based on Staff’s review, the Building Permit fees are below the regional average and are appropriate to cover staff time for conducted proper plan reviews and inspection services.

Development Impact Fees
The City’s Development Impact Fee (DIF) Program was approved by the City Council originally in 2015. At that time, a DIF Report was prepared that projected the growth of the City and identified the potential infrastructure needs to accommodate the planned development identified in the General Plan. The cost of the infrastructure was then divided based on each land use category’s usage of the corresponding infrastructure. The various impact fee types include sewer, storm drain, streets, fire protection, police, public facilities, and parks development and land acquisition. The City’s current impact fees are provided as Attachment 1.

The allocation of cost through the methodology identified in the DIF program allows for a proposed project to contribute incrementally to the construction of future facilities instead of potentially placing the full burden of the construction of needed infrastructure on the project.

Additionally, in the event a component of infrastructure is required for the development to occur, collected impact fees are used to cover the oversizing cost of the construction being borne by the developer. For example, if a project needs a storm drain basin because there is not a facility available to collect the discharge, the project may dedicate and excavate a basin to be dedicated to the City for use by their project as well as other projects identified in the vicinity to discharge to a basin in the area. The cost to construct the basin would be covered by the applicant, but any excavation completed that accommodates drainage beyond the needs of the developer’s project would be reimbursable through the DIF program.

In addition to the City’s impact fees, development may be required to pay other fees required of other agencies. With the City of Selma, projects may be subject to Developer Fees from the Selma Unified School District (SUSD), Regional Traffic Mitigation Fees (RTMF) from the Fresno Council of Governments (Fresno COG), CalWater and Selma-Kingsburg-Fowler (SKF) Sanitation District connection or capacity fees, and San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District (Air District) fees. The City does not have the ability to reduce or waive these fees, as they are adopted through each agency and have specific mitigation purposes, such as the SUSD fees, or fund other programs, such as Measure C regional street projects (RTMF).

As required by State law, the impact fees are adopted by resolution. As part of the adoption, the impact fees must include supporting documentation to identify how the fee is allocated by land use, the per unit cost (i.e., per dwelling unit, per square foot, per acres), and the infrastructure which is supported by the fee. In the case of the outside agency fees, the supporting documentation also identifies how the fee is developed and the specific use of that fee. In all cases, these fees are made available to the public for review to aid in project development and budgeting so applicants can plan financing resources accordingly, phase their project appropriately, or negotiate accommodations with the agency for a payment plan that meets their project financing goals.

The project includes 40 units of multi-family apartments, which are classified as “Attached Dwelling Units” within the City’s DIF program. Based on the current rate of fees adopted by the City Council, the estimated fees to be paid by the applicant prior to obtaining a certificate of occupancy would be as follows:

In comparison with cities in the region, the City is approximately 14.2 percent higher than the average of the reviewed agencies. However, it should be noted that every city’s DIF program is considerably different given the infrastructure needs and adopted policies associated with growth. Some cities have higher needs for street improvements and have a higher circulation or streetlight impact fee than the City. Some cities also do not charge similar fees and may exclude some fees for their DIF program altogether, as shown below.

As an example of the individual needs of an agency, the City of Selma’s park development and acquisition fees levied by the City account for approximately 41 percent of the total DIF May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 50
to be paid by a project in Selma. When these fees are reduced to a similar allocation (3 acres per 1,000 residents) or removed, the City would be ranked 5 th and 2nd, respectively, among
the other nine cities reviewed, shown below.

However, because the City adopted a policy to increase the park dedication requirement to 5 acres per thousand residents (up from 3 acres), the increased cost is reflected in the fee. It is important to remember that parks and open space development are among the highest requested amenities of residents, and they provide inherent value in the form of preserving property values, promoting outdoor activity for residents which has corresponding health impacts, and reduce urban heat island effect, amongst other things.

The application of impact fees is a policy decision implemented by each governing body. In the case of Selma, the fees identified accommodate future growth by contributing towards needed infrastructure to implement the land use plan of the General Plan and provide the desired amenities at a level that has been determined to be acceptable for current and future residents. The fees aid in providing a fund to construct infrastructure projects either directly or to be used as matching monies to grants. Without the fees, infrastructure construction to accommodate growth would fall solely onto the developer without any mechanism for reimbursement or on the City General Fund or other allocated funds, taking away from the ability to provide other essential services to existing residents in favor of the developer and future residents. If the City did not have any reimbursement or credit mechanism for developers, the cost of projects would inherently be higher as projects would be contributing much more than just their fair share allocation.

The City is currently undergoing an update to the DIF program as well. Staff is firmly aware of the need to allocate infrastructure costs for future development but also keep those costs in line regionally so that development remains feasible and competitive with other agencies in the region. As part of the updated DIF program, Staff is looking at ways of incentivizing infill projects as well as allocating infrastructure based on location and future need while still collecting an appropriate funding sources to construct these growth-related amenities and utilities.

City staff has offered developers various options for paying their impact fees. As stated above, projects may be able to receive credit for various dedications or oversizing infrastructure May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 51
improvements that are installed. Additionally, the applicant and City may enter into a Development Agreement that outlines parameters for payment over a period of time, identify the credit/reimbursement to be received, and other accommodations to ensure that both the City and developer achieve their individual goals related to the completion of the project.

______________________________________________________________________________ ITEM NO: 4.

SUBJECT: Consideration of Planning Application 2021-0012, a General Plan Amendment, Rezone, Site Plan Review, and Tentative Parcel Map to Allow for the Development of 144 Apartment Unit Complex with Associated Commercial Development and a 0.95 Acre Park APN 388-030-26 _____________________________________________________________________________ BACKGROUND:

Jay Singh (Applicant) submitted an application for a General Plan Amendment, Rezone, Site Plan Review, and Tentative Parcel Map to allow for the construction of a 144-unit multifamily apartment complex, commercial development, and a 0.95-acre park.

The Tentative Parcel Map proposes to create three separate parcels for each portion of the project, with Parcel 1 being 0.95 acres (park), Parcel 2 being 10.57 acres (apartments), and Parcel 3 being 3.79 acres (future commercial development).

The application proposes to amend the General Plan land use designation from Medium Low Density (MLD) to High Density (HD) (Parcels 1 and 2) and Regional Commercial (CR) (Parcel 3). A corresponding rezone to ensure consistency with General Plan designations proposes to change the existing zone district from R-1-7 to R-3 (Parcel 2), C-3 (Parcel 3), and Open Space (Parcel 1).

Lastly, the proposed Site Plan includes a 144-unit multi-family apartment complex on Parcel 2 with a future commercial development to be constructed on Parcel 3 at a later date.

The proposed project is located on the northeast side of the intersection of Highland Avenue (State Route 43) and Nebraska Avenue (APN 388-030-26).

DISCUSSION:

Property Characteristics:

The vacant property is generally located at the northeast corner of Highland Avenue (State Route 43) and Nebraska Avenue within the City limits. The property is bordered to the west by Highland Avenue, to the north by an existing single‐family residential subdivision along Fig Street, to the east by the Eric White Elementary School and Peter Ringo Park, and to the south by Nebraska Avenue and existing vacant lands with some single-family residential homes. The City’s dog park and storm drain basin are located further east along Nebraska Avenue.

There is an underground irrigation canal that borders the westerly property line with a standpipe located in the northwest corner that connects subterranean conveyance pipes.

May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 62
An existing convenience store and restaurant are located adjacent to the west of the subject property. According to the owners of this property, these properties are still on septic and well services, as sewer and water infrastructure has yet to be extended to their property.

Project Description:

The proposed apartment complex is proposed to be constructed in two (2) phases and would provide market-rate units for rent. Each phase would include nine (9) buildings with eight (8) units per building., totaling 72 units. Each building would consist of approximately 4,000 square feet per story, with a total of two (2) stories per building. Each unit will have approximately 1,000 square feet of space.

The units would include a mix of two (2) bedrooms/one (1) bath, two (2) bedrooms/two (2) baths, and one (1) bedroom/one (1) bath units. Each building would include a mix of building materials, architectural pop‐outs, and colors to break up the building elevations and avoid monotonous, blank wall space. Parapets will screen any roof-mounted mechanical units, if any, from public view. A mix of open parking with covered carport parking would be included in the site layout.

A decorative block wall with associated landscaping, sidewalk, and curb/gutter improvements will separate the project from the neighboring existing single-family development to the north along Fig Street, Nebraska Avenue (south), Highland Avenue (west), and along the shared property line of Eric White Elementary School (east, decorative block wall only).

Access to the site would be provided near the eastern property line adjacent to Ringo Park.

The access would be gated and separated from the future commercial development’s driveways. An emergency-only access gate is provided along Fig Street to the north and would be available during all phases of the projects, as required by the Conditions of Approval.

The applicant proposes to dedicate a 0.95-acre park space to the City. This park space would be in addition to the private open space required to be provided within the apartment complex. Since this park space would be duplicative, as Ringo Park and the Dog Park/basin area are in close proximity to the site, and would result in additional maintenance costs, Staff recommends that this park be converted for another use and not accepted by the City. Staff has advised the applicant to contact the Selma Unified School District to determine if there is use for this land by the District. More specifically, Staff recommends that the area be converted to a parking lot to remove the on-street parking along Fig Street, as the project will widen the roadway, and the stalls are currently an obstruction to constructing Fig Street to its full width. If an agreement cannot be made with the District, the land should be incorporated into the development to provide more private open space for future residents of the project or provide further buffering from adjacent uses.

The southern portion of the site is proposed for future commercial development. No specific use is proposed at this time and would be subject to a subsequent site plan review application to be approved by the Community Development Department. Access to the commercial area would be directly from Nebraska Avenue and would consist of locally serving commercial uses.

May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 63
The Tentative Parcel Map proposes to split the property into three legal parcels that correspond to the park, apartments, and commercial development. With Staff’s recommendation to remove the park, the 0.95-acre parcel may not be needed, depending on the outcome of negotiations with Selma Unified School District. However, Staff believes that giving the applicant flexibility with three parcels for either conveying the property to the District or phasing the property in a manner that allows for incremental financing would be appropriate. In Staff’s opinion, it may be advantageous for three parcels to be created, with Parcel 1 and 2 ultimately being no more than 11.52 acres combined and Parcel 3 remaining in its current size of approximately 3.79 acres in size.

City staff reviewed the project, as submitted, for compliance with local regulations, such as the Selma General Plan and Municipal Code, to develop conditions of approval to be completed at various stages of development. The conditions of approval ensure that the project will be compliant with the City’s development policies and compatible with adjacent, existing development. The staff has prepared and identified the conditions of approval that apply to each phase of the project while also identifying the timing of each condition of approval to aid the applicant with the development of the project.

Infrastructure Improvements:

Wastewater Service Improvements
The residential portion of the project would utilize approximately 106 Equivalent SingleFamily Residences (ESFR) units of wastewater capacity at full build-out. Based on the existing capacity of the existing 10-inch sewer main in Nebraska Avenue, both phases of the multi-family project can be served. However, the project will be required to complete or wait for the completion of various off-site sewer line improvements in order to adequately serve the project without causing impacts to existing development. The Selma-Kingsburg- Fowler Sanitation District (SKF) identified three improvements that are needed to serve the proposed development while also addressing capacity issues within the City’s sewer system.

Downstream improvements identified by SKF include an 18-inch sewer line replacement between Sheridan Street and McCall Avenue, as well as the completion of the Clarkson Lift Station capacity improvements.

For the commercial phase of the project, regardless of whether there is remaining capacity within the existing 10-inch line, a new parallel 10-inch sewer main will need to be installed in accordance with the Sewer Master Plan, as the project would be completing its frontage improvements at that time.

Due to the oversizing improvements required in the Sheridan Avenue line and the installation of the secondary 10-inch parallel line in Nebraska Avenue, the applicant will be entitled to fee credits or reimbursement, as these improvements exceed their fair share allocation and usage.

Furthermore, these sewer improvements will aid in facilitating the construction of other development projects in proximity to the site, such as the Casa de Villa and the proposed Highland Park project. Impact fees collected from those projects would be utilized to reimburse the applicant for these improvements in the event that fee credits do not cover all of the oversizing costs.

May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 64
Water Service Improvements
Potable water for the project would be provided through CalWater. An extension of the existing 12-inch water main to the west from the intersection of Nebraska Avenue and Mitchell Avenue will be required to serve the project.

Traffic Improvements
Nebraska Avenue will be widened along the frontage of the property during each development phase, along with the undergrounding of overhead utilities. The widening of Nebraska Avenue would ensure compliance with the Selma General Plan as an arterial roadway with an ultimate width of 100 feet. An additional dedication along the northern property line to allow the full dedication and development of Fig Street as a local street (60-foot width) is also required as part of the construction of the project. Payment of Circulation Impact fees mitigates the project’s fair share impact on identified intersections within the Traffic Impact Study. However, it should be noted that the Traffic Impact Study concludes that all studied intersections that may be affected by the project would operate at a Level of Service (LOS) “D” or better, as mandated by the Selma General Plan.

Storm Water Improvements
Storm water runoff would be designed to surface drain to the east along Nebraska Avenue, eventually being discharged to the basin facility between Mitchell Avenue and Thompson Avenue.

Environmental Review
An Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (ISMND) was prepared for the project in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The ISMND included various technical reports that analyzed the project’s impacts on biological and cultural resources, air quality, traffic and vehicle miles traveled (VMT), and soils (geotechnical). The ISMND, SCH #2023100481, was circulated for public review for the mandatory 30-day comment period through the California Office of Planning and Research (OPR) from October 17 to November 15, 2023.

A Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) was prepared with the ISMND and includes mitigation measures to be completed at various stages of the project.

Planning Commission Hearing:

On April 22, 2024, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing and recommended approving the project with conditions and supporting Staff’s recommendation to remove the proposed 0.95-acre park site.

During the public hearing, residents’ primary concern involved traffic to be generated by the project. As stated previously in this report, the Traffic Impact Study identifies that the project would still allow affected intersections to operate at a LOS “D” or better, which is the May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 65
acceptable standard of the City. Additionally, school traffic, which was discussed as being an issue, has been addressed through a project recently completed by the Selma Unified School District that provides on-site queuing and drop-off for parents along Mitchell Avenue. Lastly, the project would provide a widened Nebraska Avenue with an additional travel lane to Highland Avenue that would serve not only the project but also other motorists and promote better traffic circulation in the area.

RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that:

1. The City Council conduct a public hearing, and,

2. Adopt Resolution 2024- which includes findings of fact for approval of:
a. A General Plan Amendment from Medium Low Density (MLD) to High Density (HD) (Parcels 1 and 2) and Regional Commercial (CR) (Parcel 3); and b. A Rezone of the existing zone district from R-1-7 to R-3 (Parcel 1 and Parcel 2) and C-3 (Parcel 3); and,
c. Tentative Parcel Map to create three parcels with Parcel 1 being approximately

0.95 acres, Parcel 2 being approximately 10.57 acres and Parcel 3 being approximately 3.79 acres (future commercial development); and, d. Site Plan Review proposes a 144-unit multi-family apartment complex on Parcel 2 with a future commercial development to be constructed at a later date; and,
e. Findings for adoption of the Mitigated Negative Declaration (SCH #2023100481) and environmental mitigation measures in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act; and,

3. Adopt an Ordinance approving a rezone from R-1-7 to R-3 (Parcel 1 and Parcel 2) and C-3 (Parcel 3).

CITY MANAGER’S/STAFF’S REPORT
CITY COUNCIL MEETING:

ITEM NO: 5.

SUBJECT: Consideration of a Planning Application PLAN 24-5: A General Plan Amendment, Rezone, and Site Plan Review to develop a 40-unit multifamily development and a future 3,000 sq. ft commercial development located south of Nebraska Avenue between Mitchell and Thompson Avenue (APN 390- 030-71)
BACKGROUND:

On August 1st, 2022, a Tentative Parcel Map was approved by City Council to subdivide an approximately three-acre parcel (APN: 390-030-71) into two parcels (Parcel 1 is 2.74 acres and Parcel 2 is 0.44 acres). The purpose in subdividing the parcel was to allow the property owner to sell separate portions of land to prospective developers, consistent with the Subdivision Map Act. The applicant also intended to propose a site plan that would include both residential and commercial uses on the site in the future. The project qualified under a Class 15/Section 15315 Minor Land Division exemption. Therefore, a Notice of Exemption in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) was prepared.

The application was filed by Brenda Ramirez (CVEAS) on behalf of the property owners. to develop 40 multifamily residential units (Parcel 1) and a 3,000-square-foot commercial development (2nd phase – Parcel 2). The project will require a rezoning of the project site from a One-Family Zone (R-1-7) to a Multiple-Family Zone (R-3) and a Central Commercial Zone (C-2), as well as a General Plan Amendment from Medium Low-Density Residential to HighDensity Residential and Community Commercial.

The subject property is approximately 3.29 acres and is located within the City of Selma, south of Nebraska Avenue and Thompson Avenue. The subject property is approximately

3.29 acres.

DISCUSSION:

Property Characteristics
The mostly vacant property is generally located mid-block between Thompson and Mitchell Avenues on the south side of Nebraska Avenue, directly south of the Dog Park/storm basin facility. An existing single-family dwelling exists on the southeastern portion of the property but would be demolished with site constriction.

The property is bordered to the east by Economy Market, to the south by a single-family residential subdivision, and to the west by a single-family residential home and a multi-family May 20, 2024
May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 67
apartment complex. As stated previously, the property is directly south of the City’s Dog Park and basin facility.

Project Description:

The project is proposed to be constructed in two phases. Phase 1 includes the construction of five (5) two-story multi-family residential buildings totaling approximately 28,155 square feet.

The proposed buildings would include at total of 40 units that would each be two-bedroom, two-bathroom units. Additionally, Phase 1 includes 83 parking spaces, including 35 uncovered parking spaces, 44 covered parking spaces, two Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant parking spaces and three (3) electric vehicle charging (EVC) parking spaces; four bicycle parking spaces; open space and common areas with picnic and play facilities; approximately 36,516 square feet of landscaped areas; and the construction of trash enclosures designed pursuant to City standards.

Phase 2 of the project includes the future construction of a 3,000-square-foot commercial development on the northeast corner of the project site with associated parking, landscaping, trash enclosures, and vehicle and pedestrian infrastructure. The commercial phases currently anticipate medical/dental offices, general offices, or a laundromat but may be subject to change based on market conditions or the preference of the applicant. This phase includes the emergency access ingress/egress for the multi-family development, which would be required as part of the first phase of the development.

Infrastructure & Utilities
Wastewater Service Improvements
Wastewater services for the proposed project would be provided by the Selma-KingsburgFowler County Sanitation District (SKF CSD). The proposed development is estimated at 30 ESFRs (Equivalent Single Family Residential units), with one credit being given to the existing home on-site for a revised ESFR total of 29. These estimates are based on the information analyzed as a part of the application; thus, the commercial phase of the project will be reviewed at the time when the project has been further defined with a specific use, as varying uses have different ESFR estimates. The applicant will be required to pay their fair share of development impact fees to mitigate the project's incremental impact towards sewer facilities, but also to reimburse another party who may construct the identified improvements.

However, the applicant may also choose to construct downstream sewer line upgrades and receive impact fee credits for oversizing the improvements. Regardless, the downstream infrastructure must be in place prior to the issuance of a building permit.

Water Service Improvements
Water supply for the proposed project will be provided by CalWater. The proposed project would connect to existing service infrastructure within Nebraska Avenue.

May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 68
Storm Water Improvements
The project would be served by the City’s existing stormwater infrastructure. Both phases of the project would include the construction of new curbs, gutters, and sidewalks along the development’s frontage along Nebraska Avenue to collect and direct runoff toward the existing stormwater collection and drainage infrastructure along Nebraska Avenue.

Electrical and Gas Services
Electricity and natural gas services for the project would be supplied by Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) through connections to existing service lines. The project is currently required, as a condition of approval, to underground the overhead utilities through the PG&E Rule 20 process. As a result, along with the widening of Nebraska Avenue, the applicant is being requested to facilitate right-of-way acquisition to allow for the construction of frontage improvements in a comprehensive manner, for which the City would reimburse the acquisition of right-of-way to the applicant through circulation impact fee credits. The applicant is also required to transition frontage improvements with the property to the east to promote better vehicle movements.

Conditions of approval have been provided that ensure that future development will be consistent with the policies of the City of Selma General Plan and Municipal Code, public infrastructure standards, in addition to protecting public health, safety, and welfare of neighboring properties.

Planning Commission Hearing:

During the March 25, 2024, Planning Commission Public Hearing, the Planning Commission deliberated the substantial evidence provided in the whole record and made the recommendation to City Council to approve the item with the following amendment to Condition #95.

1. Condition #95: the developer shall underground all overhead utilities along the frontage of Nebraska Avenue if required by PG&E. To comply with Rule 20, additional right-of-way may have to be required from the property west of the project site; proof of PG&E Rule 20 approval shall be provided prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy.

Comments from the applicant expressed concern for some of the conditions of approval, such as underground overhead utilities and acquiring associated right of way; the need for the completion of off-site sewer improvements to serve the project; painting features of the structure, like downspouts, to match the color of the building; and, payment of impact fees.

The applicant is of the opinion that some impact fees should not be paid because facilities already exist, such as the storm drain basin.

May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 69
Additionally, impact fees pay for the project’s fair share allocation towards the construction of new infrastructure to serve new growth or pay for reimbursement to developers who construct oversized facilities for new growth. The property is a vacant site and, therefore, has not contributed any funds towards the construction of growth-inducing infrastructure, making impact fees applicable. If the applicant were to retain storm drainage on the property, that fee could be removed. Additionally, if the project constructs the required oversizing sewer improvements needed to serve the project (i.e., Sheridan line improvements), a credit on the impact fees would be appropriate to cover the oversizing cost. However, since the Sheridan line improvement is being constructed by another project developer (Jay Singh), the sewer impact fees of Casa de Villa would be used to support any reimbursement to that developer that cannot otherwise be covered by impact fee credits.

Staff further explained that the conditions of approval were consistent with the rules and policies of the City General Plan and Municipal Code. Furthermore, Staff explained that all of the impact fees are available to the applicant to review prior to submitting their application for processing.

Environmental (CEQA)
An Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (ISMND) was prepared for the project in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and includes mitigation measures to be completed at various stages of the project. The ISMND included various technical reports that analyzed the project’s impacts on biological and cultural resources, air quality, traffic, and vehicle miles traveled (VMT), and soils (geotechnical).

The ISMND, SCH #2024010536, was circulated for public review for the mandatory 30-day comment period through the California Office of Planning and Research (OPR) from January 18 to February 17, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT: All fees due to the City for processing of entitlements were paid in full prior to the scheduling of the public hearing

CITY MANAGER’S/STAFF’S REPORT
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 20, 2024
______________________________________________________________________________ ITEM NO: 6.

SUBJECT: Consideration of Planning Application 2022-0017; A Rezone and a Tentative Subdivision Map to Subdivide a 20.2-Acre Parcel Into 41 Single Family Lots APN:389-020-67
______________________________________________________________________________ PROJECT BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION:

Central Valley Engineering & Surveying Inc. (CVEAS), on behalf of the property owner, proposes to subdivide a 20.2-acre parcel into 41 single family lots. The project also proposes a rezone of 23 lots out of the 41 proposed lots from R-1-12 to R-1-7 (4 lots) and R-1-9 (19 lots).

The proposed rezone creates compliance with lot standards and VLD density requirements while allowing for an ample number of single-family lots to be developed on a 20.2-acre parcel by the developer. Both proposed zone districts are single-family residential zones that are compatible with the underlying Very Low-Density Residential General Plan land use.

The proposed project is located on the north side of Rose Avenue, west of Amber Avenue and east of Dockery Avenue (APN: 389-020-67).

DISCUSSION:

Property Characteristics:

The project is located in Selma, on the north side of Rose Avenue, between Amber Avenue and Dockery Avenue. The project site is surrounded by agricultural land on the north, east, and south ends of the project site. West of the project site is an existing subdivision. This project is effectively an extension of the existing subdivision. An outlot is proposed parallel to the eastern parcel line that will be used for a future trail connection to the future northern Amberwood linear park. There is an existing house located at the southeast corner of the Project site that will be removed as a part of the construction.

Access and Circulation.

Primary access to the proposed subdivision would come from the main driveway on Rose Avenue. Additional access points are provided along the western boundary of the Project site that connects to the adjacent subdivision. Vehicle circulation within the project site would be provided through a network of 60 foot and 56-foot-wide local roads. A 5-foot sidewalk will be provided consistent with the design of a typical local street as approved by the City Engineer. Connectivity will be provided to the existing sidewalk on Rose Avenue.

Maintenance of the proposed internal streets would be included within an assessment district, such as a Landscape and Lighting Maintenance District (LLMD) or Community Facilities District (CFD) for maintenance.

Utilities and Infrastructure
May 20, 2024 Council Packet Page 72
Water supply for the proposed project would be provided by the Selma District of California Water Service (CalWater). The project would require the extension of the existing 8-inch service main to the east end of the development, which will enable CalWater to install an 8-inch line along the interior roads within the subdivision.

The proposed project would include the construction of a new curb, gutter, and sidewalk with associated landscaping and block wall improvements along the residential development’s frontage to Rose Avenue. The landscaping and street lighting would be included within an assessment district to fund for maintenance by residents of the subdivision.

The site is required to provide interim storm drainage facilities in lieu to connecting a future master planned facility located on the eastern edge of the development on Rose Avenue. A Temporary Drainage Basin located within the unsubdivided remainder will capture the sites drainage until the permanent facility is acquired and constructed. If the applicant determines that to construct a permanent basin onsite the basin would also be included in an assessment district for maintenance.

The project would also be required to extend a 15-inch sewer line to the east, connecting to the Amberwood Sewer Line, which is currently in the early stages of construction scheduling.

The 15-inch sewer line is consistent with SKF Sewer Master Plan and would be sized appropriately to accommodate future development along Rose Avenue. This oversized facility would be eligible for sewer impact fee credits based on the cost difference between the installation of a typical 8-inch line and the 15-inch line.

Outlot A of the proposed subdivision is currently an existing PG&E easement. The outlot is proposed to be developed as a Linear Park/Trail that will connect to the future Northern Amberwood linear park. The proposed Linear Park/Trail shall comply with the linear park design requirements identified in the Amberwood Specific Plan. This dedication would offset a portion of the required impact fees charged for the City’s Park Land improvements. As a condition of the project, a paseo with a minimum width of 20 feet shall be provided north of Lot 10 to promote walkability by allowing pedestrian access to the linear park, extending the length of the proposed project and into the Amberwood Specific Plan. This paseo strip dedication fulfills the City’s General Plan Goals and Policies though supporting smart growth principles that advance walkable, bikeable, and accessible neighborhoods which coordinate land use and transportation with open space areas for recreation. The paseo strip shall be an offer of dedication to the City with Final Map.

Environmental Review
An Initial Study Negative Declaration (ISMND) was prepared for the project in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The ISND included various analysis highlighting the lack of significant impact the project project is projected to have on the environment. The ISMND, SCH #2024031070, was circulated for public review for the mandatory 30-day comment period through the California Office of Planning and Research (OPR) from March 28 to April 27, 2024.
