training program. Required tools and supplies will be submitted to the City on an ongoing basis using purchase orders or other City approved methods.
The training curriculum, endorsed and facilitated by representatives from the Building Trades, will comprehensively cover all aspects of the building and construction industry. Over the course of 12 weeks, students will receive a blend of group and one-on-one instruction along with handson project work. Hands-on shop training will be conducted and supervised by skilled craftpersons (full journeyman) in the applicable trade. Core elements of the curriculum will encompass, but not necessarily be limited to:
Orientation to the construction
industry and the apprenticeship
structure
Construction related physical fitness
training and job safety
Applied math for construction
Surveying and blueprint reading
Tool and material identification
Fundamentals of structural steel and
ironwork
Fundamentals of framing, form,
foundation work, and cement work
Basic electrical and wiring work
Basic elements of plumbing
Hazardous waste and lead abatement
training
Confined space training
On-line training in emerging
environmental technologies
Rail/ Train Safety
Additional training including but not
necessarily limited to:
o Building Inspection
o Computer Assisted Drafting
(CAD)
o Construction Site Supervision
and Management
o Forklift Operations
o Other in-demand
certifications
Throughout the training program, each student’s progress is evaluated and graduation from the program is contingent upon meeting specific program objectives in addition to demonstrated job readiness. These objectives include active class participation, consistent attendance, successful performance in both written and practical exams, and the maintenance of a passing grade. Upon completion, students receive industry-specific certifications provided by the Northern CA Laborers, which not only validates their expertise but also sets them apart from individuals without such credentials. While these certifications do not guarantee employment, they serve as a testament to the students’ comprehensive understanding of building and construction safety, enabling them to identify and address problems or issues more adeptly. Each successful student currently earns the following industry certifications:
First Aid
CPR
Confined Space
2 HAZWOPER training prepares cleanup and emergency response workers to operate safely during a variety of scenarios involving hazardous substances.
Traffic Control / Work Zone Safety
OSHA-30
Hazardous Waste / HAZWOPER 402
209
EPA Lead Paint RRP3
Forklift and Scissor Lift
After completing the program, students will receive a program evaluation via web-based survey aimed at gauging their overall satisfaction and learning experience during the training. The case management team also speaks with students on a weekly basis during the program and then monthly post-graduation to ensure employment and job retention while assisting with any other barriers that may have emerged. These assessments include inquiries such as:
1. How successful was the program in equipping you with relevant knowledge and skills?
2. Were you able to implement what you learned?
3. What additional advantages did the training program yield? Based on the evaluation outcomes, participant check-ins, and monthly program reports, the program’s management team can discern the training program’s strengths and areas for improvement and subsequently adapt service delivery. FCEDC will highlight achievements by disseminating them for outreach, recruitment, and in public relations materials. Regarding areas requiring refinement, FCEDC will promptly address correctable issues and undertake a comprehensive assessment for those necessitating a longer-term strategic approach. It should be noted that as the incumbent bidder, FCEDC and its partners have extensive experience working together on this project and other similar projects. Staff conduct biweekly check-ins and after each cohort the entire team has an “all hands” meeting to discuss what went well and what can be improved from the previous cohort. Client survey results are also reviewed at the “all hands” meeting. Typically, representatives from the contractor and subcontractors in the current program and this proposal are onsite together multiple times each week to further collaborate.
Task 3: Job Placement and Counseling: The case management team offers comprehensive job search support, counseling, and placement services to graduates. These services will aid students in evaluating their career aspirations, interests, and skills. As the training nears completion, the program team will also engage with students on a weekly basis, aiding job applications, refining resumes, crafting cover letters, honing interview techniques, and conducting job searches. The contractors for the current project and in this proposal coordinate and will continue to coordinate with the City of Selma, the High Speed Rail Authority and its consultants, contractors, and subcontractors to fulfill skilled labor needs for the HSR Project. Meet and Greets, Open Houses, and Job Fairs are currently and will continue to be conducted to connect graduates with potential employers and the community with the training program.
Task 4: Job Retention Assistance: The Workforce Training Coordinator at FCEDC and others on the case management team will offer job retention support and ongoing services to all individuals, including job advice, assistance with employment searches, and guidance in accessing various social services. Following job placement, an initial follow-up will take place on the client’s start date, followed by monthly check-ins for a full year. These check-ins may be conducted either in person or via telephone. In cases where a student encounters obstacles to maintaining employment, the staff will work to connect them with resources that can help them 3 This certificate (Lead Renovation, Repair, and

Innovative/Creative Approaches
Fresno County Economic Development Corporation (FCEDC) is an innovative organization operating at the leading edge of economic and workforce development. In 2014, FCEDC and Fresno County Department of Social Services (DSS) developed the New Employment Opportunities (NEO) Program. This innovative initiative enables both organizations to serve their respecive clients: businesses in need or employees and indivudals facing underemployment or unemployment. The NEO program provides wage reimbursements to employers who hire and provide on-the-job training to participants of the California Work Opportunities and Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKs) Welfare-to-Work program. Through this collaboration, FCEDC and DSS identify job-ready candidates and businesses provide up to one year of subsidized training. This program pioneered the pairing of a County Social Service agency with a non-profit, economic development agency to align local businesses and industries with readyto-work jobseekers. In 2018, the NEO program was recognized by the International Economic Development Council who awarded the program the Gold Award for Business Retention and Expansion Programs. FCEDC and DSS leverage the Central Valley Training Center, and other workforce development programs, to train NEO and other underrepresented, underemployed, and unemployed individuals and enable placement into high-quality, family-sustaining careers.
FCEDC’s leadership in workforce development was recognized in 2022 with one of only 32 awards nationally in the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Good Jobs Challenge. This grant program was highly competitive with 509 applications submitted. All partners in this proposal for continued funding of the Central Valley Training Center are also partners in Good Jobs.
Additionally, Good Jobs includes partners in the surrounding counties that will assist with recruitment and job placement support for the Central Valley Training Center during the program years for this proposal. Good Jobs funding is approved and available for the Central Valley Training Center to provide leveraged funding support for the following supportive services at no charge to the City of Selma:
Union Initiation Fees and Dues
Transportation Assistance (i.e., Gas
Cards and/or E.V. ride shares)
Childcare Services
Additional Tools / Supplies Required
for Work
Additionally, FCEDC’s support of the project will be augmented through leveraged Good Jobs funding providing approximately $110,706 in staff support at no cost to the City of Selma.
During the most recent contract, the Central Valley Training Center has adapted innovative practices to maximize benefits for its target populations. Of all the pre-apprenticeship
212
construction programs available in the region, CVTC is the only one to offer the more robust OSHA 30 certification for workplace safety. This represented a change from 2020-2023 when OSHA 10 was offered. However, employer partners indicated OSHA 30 was more in-demand and as a result CVTC switched certifications. A multiyear partnership with the Fresno County Department of Public Health (DPH) (see letter of support) was also added to CVTC in Fall 2023.
To date, more than 100 CVTC participants have received EPA certification in lead paint removal and remediation thanks to this partnership and a separate federal grant received by DPH. In 2025, CVTC began to offer short-term training in OSHA-30 and Forklift to increase the usage of the facilities and provide more individuals with industry recognized credentials. ATSSA Flagger and other new certifications are offered, informed by employer requests. Additional new certifications and other innovations will continue under this proposal.

4. Similar Projects
Fresno County EDC (FCEDC) has administered a subsidized employment program through a partnership with the County’s Department of Social Services since 2014. In the 10+ years since this program was launched, more than 2,272 job seekers have been hired with their employers receiving nearly $16.4 million in wage reimbursements to provide on-the-job training. Multiple construction businesses participated in this program. In September 2022, FCEDC secured $23 million in funding from the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Good Jobs Challenge. In June 2023, FCEDC was a successful subrecipients in partnership with United Way of Fresno and Madera Counties for Economic Development Pilot funding as discussed above. Earlier this year, FCEDC received a $1.7 million Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act grant from the State of California to provide paid, on-the-job training to participants who have worked at Employment Social Enterprises, such as Goodwill, to continue climbing the career ladder and earn family sustaining living wages.

Valley Apprenticeship Connections and Truck Driver Training Programs FCEDC has made available to eligible Welfare to Work participants impactful training in several occupations through the ongoing partnership with Fresno County Department of Social Services (DSS). Valley Apprenticeship Connections (VAC), a Metro Fresno Construction PreApprenticeship program like the Central Valley Training Center, and Truck Driver Training (TDT) programs work with Fresno County’s hardest-to-serve populations to help eradicate their barriers to employment.
VAC is a 12-week pre-apprenticeship program that prepares students for jobs in the construction trades such as the routine of daily work schedule and physical activity to condition them to the physical labor required by the trades. The program curriculum used is exemplary in developing soft skills and shifting thought patterns by using the Thinking for Change curriculum. Guidance, correction, and encouragement provided by staff is used appropriately to propel students to success and their best self.
TDT is a public-private partnership consisting of a 10-week program located at a local employer in Metro Fresno. Previously, the program was located at a JD Food facility and was administered by West Hills Community College District. With Good Jobs funding, West Hills shifted to provide services closer to their campuses in Western Fresno County and Kings County. In 2025, the TDT program for DSS transitioned to State Center Community College as the administrator and OK Produce as the supporting employer.

5. Fee Proposal
FCEDC is requesting $2,700,000 for 28 months of program funding for this proposal to the City of Selma, with the following proposed allocations for the parties:
Fresno County EDC: $544,065.33 for program management, subcontractor oversight, fiscal and program reporting, job development, job search and retention support, marketing, and employer engagement.
Pre-Apprenticeship Construction Training, Inc.: $738,608.00 for hands on training provided by experienced members of the local Building Trades Council. Fresno Economic Opportunities Commission (Valley Apprenticeship Connections):
$569,912.63 for recruitment, case management, soft skills, and physical fitness training including the use of the Thinking 4 a Change curriculum. City of Selma: $847,414.04 for overall grant administration, training supplies, facilities lease, management, and select related services.
A 28-month program is proposed to allow nine (9) cohorts of 12 weeks in duration with a slight increase in time between cohorts to permit program refit and other innovative training opportunities as discussed above. Per cohort, the cost would be $300,000 compared to the previous contract’s $250,000 cost. This increase is due to increases due to inflation, potential new lease of facilities, and the anticipated macroeconomic impact of tariffs on program supplies.
The detailed budget is outlined in Attachment A. Staffing allocations, roles, and responsibilities were also discussed in Section 3 of this proposal. FCEDC and its partners look forward to continuing this worthwhile project.

SUBJECT: Consideration and Adoption of Resolution 2026-15R Approving a FY 25/26 Budget Amendment for Necessary Fire Station #1 Roof Repairs and Consideration and Adoption of Resolution 2026-16R Approving the Removal and Replacement of Existing Roof at Fire Station #1 and Authorizing the City Manager or Designee to Execute all Necessary Associated Documents
SUBMITTED: Michael Honn, Public Works Director
APPROVED: Jason Rogers, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommend the approval of Resolution 2026-15R approving a budget amendment to fund necessary Fire Station #1 roof repair and replacement. Staff further recommend the approval of Resolution 2026-16R approving the roof repair and providing authorization to City Manager or designee to execute all necessary documents with Garland, via Omnia purchasing cooperative. Staff has provided the contract and has included contingency for unforeseen issues.
DISCUSSION:
The contract recommended is through Omnia, a purchasing co-op similar to SourceWell with pre-vetted contractors. This eliminates the requirement to go out to public bid. It also gives the owner of the project a 30% discount on all materials. In addition, it limits the contractor performing the work to a maximum of 10% profit margin for any unforeseen work, not part of the original contract.
Staff have identified a severe defect in the existing roof membrane, that is causing water to be trapped beneath. This trapped water is causing further structural damage and maintenance issues. The roof replacement will capture the entire envelope of the building and will include all apparatuses required for the work per the city's standards and the agreed-to contract, including the removal of the existing roofing system in its entirety. The roofing system will include the new membrane section over the bays, the steel roof section over the living and common area, all penetrations not being used will be removed and abandoned, there will be new curbing, a new 5-ton AC unit and new ducting as required. The entire roof will also receive a new steel cap.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$319,890.00 Garland Co. Base contract
$ 7,800.00 Set one (1) new 5-ton AC unit and install new curbing. (Ducting will be assessed once the roof has been removed and existing ducting can be observed for integrity.)
$ 49,167.00 Contingency of 15% for unforeseen issues.
$376,947.00 Total (Estimate)

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Meeting Date: February 17, 2026
SUBJECT: Consideration and Necessary Action for Acceptance of Fiscal Year 2025- 2026 Mid-Year Budget Report and adopt Resolution 2026-17R approving the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Proposed Budget Amendments
SUBMITTED: Margarita Moreno, Finance Director/Treasurer APPROVED: Jason Rogers, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommend that the City Council receive and file the second quarter financial FY 2025- 26 and adopt Resolution No. 2026-17R approving the proposed budget amendments.
DISCUSSION:
The Fiscal Year 2025-26 mid-year budget report reflects the City’s revenues and expenditures through December 31, 2025 (mid-year). Percentages reflected in this report are influenced by normal timing differences related to sales tax reporting cycles, property tax distribution schedules, staffing vacancies, grant reimbursement timing, and the seasonal nature of certain expenditures. The mid-year budget report provides data to inform any necessary budget amendments to ensure the budget remains balanced at the end of the fiscal year.
Staff recommend several budget amendments based on operational changes during the midyear period, as well as staff’s understanding of departmental operations and base budget needs. Below is a summary of revenues received, and expenditures made for each fund type through December 31, 2025.
A detailed summary of General Fund activity is included as Attachment A, while a summary of all funds is included as Attachment B.
GENERAL FUND
The General Fund supports the City’s core services, including Police, Fire, Public Works, Community Development, Parks and Recreation, and the Senior Center. Sales and property taxes represent the two largest revenue sources within the General Fund. As of mid-year, General Fund revenues are at 39% of the adopted budget, while expenditures are at 54%, which is generally consistent with mid-year spending patterns. Overall, the General Fund remains within expected parameters at this point in the fiscal year. Variances observed at midyear are primarily attributable to timing rather than structural imbalance.
REVENUES
As summarized in Attachment A, General Fund revenues received through December 31, 2025, total 39% of the annual budget estimates, while expenditures are at 54%. It is important to note that certain revenues are collected at various times throughout the year and may not be fully reflected in the mid-year report.
293
SALES & USE TAX
The City has received 40% of sales tax revenues to date. As the largest revenue source in the General Fund, sales tax is received two months in arrears, and as a result, the mid-year report reflects only four months of revenue.
PROPERTY TAX
The majority of property tax revenue is not scheduled to be distributed to cities until late December or early January from Fresno County and, therefore, is not reflected in this report. Currently, revenues reflect only 40% of the annual budget.
MOTOR VEHICLE IN LIEU (VLF)
Vehicle License Fee payments are at 54% at mid-year. The motor vehicle in lieu revenues are property tax shares allocated to cities and counties by the State.
TRANSIENT OCCUPANCY TAX (TOT)
Transient Occupancy Tax revenues are received on both a monthly and quarterly basis. As of mid-year, revenues total 37% of the annual budget. Second-quarter payments are not reflected in the mid-year report.
LICENSES & PERMITS
As of December 31, 2025, the City has collected 38% of budgeted revenues from licenses and permits. Most of these revenues are derived from business licenses, building inspections, and encroachment permits.
CHARGES FOR SERVICES
Revenues for Charges for Services are at 44% of the annual budget as of mid-year. This category includes fees collected for various City services and programs, which may fluctuate throughout the year depending on service activity levels and timing of collections.
FINES, FORFEITURES & PENALTIES
Revenues from fines, forfeitures, and penalties are currently at 23% of the annual budget and are expected to meet budgeted projections by year-end. This category includes revenues from administrative citations, court fines, and parking fines.
FRANCHISE FEES
Revenues are currently at 3% of the annual budget. Franchise fees are payments received from utility, cable, and other service providers for the use of the City’s rightsof-way. These revenues are collected on a quarterly basis, with the majority typically received in the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year.
USE OF MONEY & PROPERTY RENTAL INCOME
Revenues for Use of Money and Property Rental Income are currently at 4% of the annual budget for mid-year. This category includes interest earnings on City funds and rental income from City-owned properties.
GRANT
Grant Revenues currently reflect no activity at mid-year. Grant receipts typically occur periodically throughout the fiscal year based on award schedules and reimbursement requests.
294
REIMBURSEMENTS
Revenues from reimbursements are currently at 52% of the annual budget. This category includes P.O.S.T. reimbursements, restitution, and other state-mandated revenues.
OTHER FINANCE SOURCES/TRANSFER IN
Revenues from other Finance Sources/Transfer Ins are currently at 33%. A general ledger entry will be done to allocate the transfer in and transfer out to the appropriate funds at year end.
OTHER REVENUES
Revenues for Miscellaneous Revenues are currently at 102% of the annual budget. The majority of these revenues are from National Opioid Settlement funds, which represent the City’s share of proceeds from national legal settlements with opioid manufacturers and distributors, which reflect one-time miscellaneous sources that vary throughout the year. A budget amendment is proposed to increase revenue proceeds transferred in from Selma Enhancement Corp to General Fund to offset Selma Live special events expenses.
EXPENDITURES
As summarized in Attachment A, the City has expended approximately 54% of total appropriations as of December 31, 2025. All departments are generally performing within their budgeted allocations at mid-year. The mid-year review provides the City with an opportunity to make necessary adjustments to ensure the budget remains balanced at the end of the fiscal year. Accordingly, a budget amendment is proposed to reflect changes throughout the first half of the fiscal year, as detailed in Attachment C.
SPECIAL REVENUES FUNDS
Special Revenue Funds are used to account for revenues that are legally restricted or committed for specific purposes, such as transportation, public safety, grants, and infrastructure improvements. Expenditures in these funds are limited to the purposes for which the revenues are received and often reflect timing differences related to grant reimbursements, state allocations, and prior-year project carryovers. In several cases, expenditure percentages exceed 100% due to prior-year carryovers and unbudgeted capital activity recognized at mid-year; these percentages do not represent current-year overspending. 1002-EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT
Revenues reflect funding for Fire miscellaneous revenues from Fresno City College at mid-year at 58% while expenses are at 13%.
2000-TRAFFIC SAFETY
Revenues are 93%, while expenses reflect 0% of the annual budget. 2001-LOCAL PUBLIC SAFETY FUND (LPSF)
Mid-Year reflects revenues at 33% and expenses at 33%. Revenue collections are administered by Fresno County. LPSF is a revenue source allocated by California counties to cities and local agencies to support public safety programs, such as police, 295
fire, and emergency services. These funds are generally derived from state-shared revenues that were previously part of the VLF and other public safety allocations. 2004-STREETS-CONSTRUCTION & MAINTENANCE
Mid-Year reflects revenues at 42% and expenditures at 43%. Expenditures include personnel costs and maintenance and operations, which are offset by various special revenue funds, including Gas Tax, Measure C, and Local Transportation Funds (LTF). A budget amendment is proposed to adjust expenditures to actual costs for the Brentlinger Pickleball Courts solar lighting project.
2005-GAS TAX
At mid-year, revenues reflect 51% of the annual budget, while expenditures are at 0%.
Revenue collections include two months of Highway Users Tax Account (HUTA) receipts distributed by the State of California. HUTA revenues are generated from statewide fuel taxes and are allocated monthly to cities and counties to support the construction, maintenance, and repair of local streets and roads. A budget amendment is proposed to adjust expenditures for street projects and to recognize a prior-year carryover associated with the purchase of a Public Works Vacuum Excavator. 2006-ROAD MAINTENANCE & REHAB (RMRA)
The mid-year reflects revenues at 53% of the annual budget, while expenses are at 4%.
RMRA revenues are received monthly from the State. A budget amendment is proposed to adjust expenses to actual for a prior year budget carryover for Street Rehab Project.
2008-CMAQ (Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program) CMAQ funds are federal grants provided to support projects that reduce traffic congestion and improve air quality. Reimbursements are processed after expenses are incurred. For Mid-year, revenues are at 2% and expenses at 4%, with year-end adjustments planned to align expenses with actual costs. The expenses will be adjusted at year end.
2010-2011-LTF ART 3 & 8
Local Transportation Fund (LTF) revenues, generated from Fresno County, are at 0% for the mid-year, while expenses are at 40%, reflecting engineering costs for the Thompson-Floral Alley Sewer project and the City Hall North Parking Lot drainage improvements.

SUBJECT: Consideration and Necessary Action on Resolution 2026-18R Establishing Fees and Charges for Unaltered Dog and Cat Licenses and Fines for Violation of Selma Municipal Code § 6-2-26 Relating to Breeding, Transfer and Sale of Dogs and Cats
SUBMITTED: Neal E. Costanzo, City Attorney
APPROVED: Jason Rogers, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2026-18R establishing fees and charges for unaltered dog and cat licenses and fines for violations of Selma Municipal Code (“SMC”) § 6-2-26.
DISCUSSION:
The proposed resolution sets the fees for dog and cat licenses and differentiates between altered and unaltered dogs and cats. The way the city assesses or charges those fees to residents is already in place because the city has a ordinance requiring applications for dog licenses established pursuant to SMC Section 6-2-15, setting the requirement for and issuance of a dog license in response to an application. The city has established forms and procedures for applications that can be made by mail, in person or on the city website as well as the licenses that are issued in response. Implementing the new license fees requires some modification to the current system for taking applications for dog licenses.
The Amended ordinance 6-2-26 makes the licensing requirements applicable to cats as well as dogs, so to implement the new fees those existing forms and procedures, and most importantly the notifications to the public (which primarily exist on the city website) of the requirement being applicable to cats need to be changed to allow for the required application of a cat license. Currently, the dog licensing fees applicable to both altered and unaltered dogs is set by resolution (at $10 and $20 respectfully). That resolution is repealed by the proposed resolution. Under the existing ordinances a licensing fee for an animal is an annual fee. It expires December 31st of every year and becomes delinquent after March 31st of every year.
Delinquent license fees incur a fifty percent (50%) increase. The license fee is administered by the City Finance Department. (SMC Section 6-2-15, 16). Those requirements remain in place.
The adoption of the amended version of § 6-2-26 of the SMC requires licensing of cats, in addition to dogs, and is designed to encourage people to have their dog and/or cat spayed or neutered. Accordingly, the proposed Resolution increases the license fee for having an unaltered animal from twenty dollars ($20) annually, with a fifty percent (50%) discount to seniors (persons over 62), to a one hundred dollar ($100) annual fee, with no senior discount available.
Consistent with the overall purpose of the Ordinance Amendment, the fee for a permit or license for an animal that is unalerted that is allowed to breed is set by the proposed resolution at three hundred eighty dollars ($380). That permit fee is to be charged in the same way as the 321
dog license fee is currently charged, so the existing forms, procedures and practices in use at the city may need to be altered to reflect the new type of license; or a new license application needs to be developed to implement this new license requirement. The fine for having an unaltered animal that is unlicensed is set at two hundred fifty dollars ($250) and the fine for allowing an animal to breed without the required permit is set at five hundred seventy-five dollars ($575). Fines are imposed by the issuance of a citation under provisions of the SMC providing for administrative assessment of fines for a violation of the SMC There would be no change in the license fee ($10, and $5 for seniors) applicable to an altered animal.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Meeting Date: February 17, 2026
SUBJECT: Introduction and Waiver of First Reading of Ordinance 2026-02 Amending Selma Municipal Code § 5-7-3, Relating to Special Event Permit Processing Timelines
SUBMITTED: Jason Rogers, City Manager
APPROVED: Jason Rogers, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Introduce and waive the first reading of Ordinance 2026-02 amending Selma Municipal Code § 5-7-3 to establish an expedited application pathway for minor, low-impact special events.
DISCUSSION:
Selma Municipal Code (SMC) Chapter 5-7 governs the permitting and regulation of special events within the City, including application requirements, review timelines, public safety considerations, and vendor compliance. Under the current code, special event permit applications are required to be submitted at least ninety (90) days prior to an event, with City Manager discretion to accept applications submitted at least forty-five (45) days in advance when the event does not involve public right-of-way closures, diversion of regularly assigned public safety personnel, or adverse impacts to emergency access, parking, or traffic.
This framework is appropriate for large or complex events that require significant coordination among City departments or outside agencies. However, recent event requests have highlighted a gap in the Municipal Code for small, low-impact events, such as limited gatherings on private property or within City parks that may involve minimal vendors or temporary activities but do not trigger significant operational or public safety impacts.
In the absence of a clearly defined expedited pathway, these smaller requests have required case-by-case evaluation and City Manager discretion, resulting in uncertainty for applicants and inefficiencies for staff. City Council has requested that staff explore revisions to processing timelines to allow for quicker review of small, low-impact events while maintaining appropriate review periods for events involving street closures, traffic control, or substantial public safety considerations.
The proposed ordinance amendment introduces a narrowly defined expedited minor special event permit pathway within SMC § 5-7-3. The amendment preserves the existing ninety (90) day application requirement for major events and retains the forty-five (45) day discretionary pathway currently authorized under the Municipal Code. In addition, the ordinance establishes a two-tier approach: an expedited pathway for minor events submitted at least twenty-one (21) days in advance, and separate City Manager discretion to accept or deny applications submitted fewer than twenty-one (21) days prior to the event when the event is determined to be minor in nature and low impact.
327
This approach reflects practices used by peer Central Valley cities, which distinguish between major special events requiring extended review and smaller community or park-based activities that can be processed administratively without compromising public safety or operational readiness. Importantly, the proposed amendment does not create an entitlement to approval based on submission timing. The City Manager retains discretion to require additional review time or deny expedited processing if operational, staffing, or public safety concerns are identified.
Operational details, such as eligibility criteria, documentation requirements, vendor compliance expectations, and application intake procedures, will be addressed through separate administrative policy and revised application materials. Addressing these details administratively, rather than embedding them in the Municipal Code, allows the City to maintain flexibility and respond to changing conditions while providing clearer guidance to applicants.
Overall, the proposed amendment is intended to improve clarity, consistency, and efficiency in special event permitting, reduce ad hoc exception requests, and better align processing timelines with the scale and impact of proposed events, while continuing to protect the public health, safety, and welfare.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with the proposed ordinance amendment.
Clarifying permit timelines and procedures is anticipated to reduce staff inefficiencies related to case-by-case exception requests and last-minute coordination.

The City Manager or designee may authorize acceptance of an application for a special event permit submitted at least forty-five (45) days prior to the special event if the event does not require closure of a public right-of-way, will not require diversion of regularly assigned public safety personnel, and does not negatively impact emergency access, parking, or traffic in the surrounding area.
1. If determined by the Police Chief that a road closure impacts public safety, the closure must be approved by the City Council prior to the event.
2. Expedited Minor Special Events. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City Manager or designee may accept and process an application for a minor special event permit submitted no fewer than twenty-one (21) calendar days prior to the event, provided the City Manager or designee determines that the proposed event is minor in nature and low-impact. In making this determination, consideration shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
329
2 a. The event does not require closure of any public right-of-way; b. The event does not require diversion of regularly assigned police, fire, or public works personnel; and
c. The event does not negatively impact emergency access, parking availability, or traffic circulation.
d. Whether the event requires permits or approvals from third-party or outside agencies, including but not limited to the Fresno County Department of Public Health, Alcoholic Beverage Control, or Fire Authority, and whether sufficient time exists to obtain such approvals prior to the event.
3. Applications Submitted Fewer Than Twenty-One (21) Days Prior to the Event.
Notwithstanding subsection (A)(2), the City Manager or designee may, in his or her discretion, accept, process, condition, or deny an application submitted fewer than twenty-one (21) days prior to the proposed event, upon a determination that sufficient time exists to ensure public safety and regulatory compliance.
Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to require approval of an expedited minor special event application. The City Manager or designee may require additional review time or deny expedited processing if operational, staffing, or public safety concerns are identified.
Section 2. Effect. This Ordinance shall take effect and be in force and effect thirty (30) days from and after the date of its final passage.
Section 3. Publication of Summary. The City Clerk is authorized and directed to cause this Ordinance or a summary thereof to be published once in a newspaper of general circulation published and circulated in the County of Fresno within fifteen (15) days after its adoption.
The City Clerk shall cause a summary of the proposed ordinance to be published and a certified copy of the full text of the proposed ordinance to be on file in the office of the City Clerk. The summary shall be approved by the City Attorney.
Section 4. No Preemption. It is the intent of the City Council of the City of Selma to supplement applicable state and federal law and not to duplicate or contradict such laws, and this ordinance shall be construed consistently with that intention.
Section 5. Severability. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of this Ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining portions of this Ordinance shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted this Ordinance and each section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more portions may be declared invalid or unenforceable.
