CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: August 18, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Yazmina Pallares, City Clerk
SUBJECT: CANCEL CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 15, 2026
RECOMMENDATION
Council find the action is not defined as a “project” per Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines; and approve the cancellation of the regularly scheduled City Council meeting of September 15, 2026.
BACKGROUND
The City Council’s regular meetings are generally scheduled for the first and third Tuesday of each month. The next regularly scheduled meeting following the September 15, 2026 meeting will be held on October 6, 2026.
Staff has reviewed the anticipated business for the September 15, 2026 meeting and is recommending that the meeting be canceled.
If necessary, a special meeting may be scheduled prior to October 6, 2026, should urgent or time-sensitive matters arise that require City Council action.
FISCAL IMPACT
None.
CEQA ANALYSIS
The action is not defined as a “project” per Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines because the action is the cancellation of a regularly scheduled City Council meeting and therefore, it is organizational and administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment and not subject to CEQA.

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: August 18, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Michael James, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: MCCF REPURPOSING PROJECT AGREEMENT AMENDMENT
AND RESTATEMENT (CIP PROJECT NO. GE00009)
RECOMMENDATION
Council find that the action is not a project pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5) and that the action is a feasibility analysis under Section 15262 because the Agreement approves and funds only Phase 1 facility assessment and conceptual design and the Agency remains free to reject the Project or select the no-project alternative after the pre-construction analysis is completed; approve the Design-Build Agreement amending and restating the Agreement from 4Creeks, Inc. dba 4Creeks Design to 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build, subject to approval as to form by the City Attorney and staff verification that all required insurance and bonding requirements have been satisfied; and authorize the City Manager to execute the Amended and Restated Agreement and any related documents necessary to implement the Project’s Phase 1 facility assessment and conceptual design.
BACKGROUND
On June 18, 2026, the City entered into a Design-Build Agreement with 4Creeks, Inc. dba 4Creeks Design for the Modified Community Correctional Facility (MCCF) Repurposing Project in the amount of $207,900 for Phase 1 facility assessment and conceptual design. The contractor has submitted a formal written request asking the City to consent to the assignment of the Agreement from 4Creeks, Inc. dba 4Creeks Design to 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build, an affiliated entity under common ownership and control. The contractor states that 4C Global, Inc. is the entity that maintains the contractor's license, surety relationship, and construction insurance program and is therefore better positioned to provide the required payment and performance bonds and construction insurance for the duration of the project, if the Council determines to proceed with Phase 2 of the project.
The proposed amendment and restatement of the Agreement would transfer all rights, duties, and obligations under the Agreement to 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build. The contractor has confirmed that the proposed amendment and restatement of the Agreement will not modify the scope of work, Agreement amount, project schedule, project personnel, or any other terms and conditions of the Agreement. The sole purpose of the amendment and restatement is to assign the Agreement to the affiliated entity that may perform the construction work and maintain the required bonding and
MCCF REPURPOSING PROJECT AGREEMENT AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT (CIP PROJECT NO. GE00009)
- 2 -
insurance if the Project progresses into Phase 2 construction.
The proposed amendment and restatement is subject to review and approval by the City Attorney as to form. In addition, before the Amended and Restated Agreement becomes effective, staff will confirm that the contractor has provided satisfactory documentation establishing the corporate relationship between the entities and has complied with all applicable insurance and bonding requirements by updating the required policies, endorsements, and payment and performance bonds to reflect 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build. The Agreement amount of $207,900 for Phase 1 facility assessment and conceptual design will remain unchanged.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed Amended and Restated Agreement would not increase the Agreement amount or require an additional appropriation. The Agreement would remain in the amount of $207,900, and the scope of work and other substantive terms would remain unchanged. Accordingly, the proposed action would have no additional fiscal impact.
CEQA ANALYSIS
The proposed action is not a project pursuant to Sections 15378(b)(5) and 15262 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines because the approval of an amended and restated Agreement from one affiliated corporate entity to another is an organizational and administrative activity that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change to the environment, and because the Agreement approves and funds only Phase 1 facility assessment and conceptual design and the Agency remains free to reject the Project or select the no-project alternative after the pre-construction analysis is completed. The proposed amendment and restatement does not modify the scope of work, Agreement amount, or project activities.
APPROVED BY THE CITY ATTORNEY
Yes

July 23, 2026
Michael James, Assistant City Manager
City of Shafter
336 Pacific Avenue
Shafter, CA 93263
RE: Request for Assignment of Design-Build Contract – Modified Community Correctional Facility (MCCF) Repurposing Project, Capital Improvement Program Project No. 00009
Dear Mr. James:
On behalf of 4Creeks, Inc. dba 4Creeks Design and 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build, and pursuant to Section 15.9 of the General Conditions, I respectfully request the City of Shafter’s written consent to assign the Design-Build Contract for the Modified Community Correctional Facility (MCCF) Repurposing Project, dated June 18, 2026, in the amount of $207,900, from 4Creeks, Inc. dba 4Creeks Design to 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build.
Reason for the Request. 4Creeks delivers its services through affiliated operating companies under common ownership and control. Professional design services — architecture, engineering, surveying, and planning — are provided through 4Creeks, Inc. dba 4Creeks Design. Construction, general contracting, and design-build delivery are provided through 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build, which holds our construction operations, contractor’s licensing, surety relationship, and construction insurance program. Because the MCCF Repurposing Project carries the full construction obligations of the Design-Build Entity — including payment and performance bonds and the construction insurance required by the Contract Documents — 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build is the entity best positioned to properly bond and insure the work for the duration of the Project. Of particular note, the Contractors State License Board License No. 964881 and Department of Industrial Relations Registration No. 1000010166 identified in Section 8 of the Contract are held by 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build. The licensed contractor performing the Work is therefore already 4C Global, Inc.; the requested assignment simply conforms the contracting entity to the licensed, bonded, and insured entity that will perform the construction work.
No Change to Scope, Price, Schedule, or Team. Upon the City’s approval, 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build will assume all rights, duties, and obligations of the Design-Build Entity under the Agreement from its inception. The Scope of Work, the Contract Price of $207,900, and the Project Completion Date of December 31, 2026 remain unchanged. I will continue to serve as
the Design-Build Entity’s Representative, and William Ruoff, AIA (License No. C-36886), will continue as the Design Professional. The licensed contractor of record (CSLB License No. 964881, DIR Registration No. 1000010166) is likewise unchanged. The same 4Creeks Design personnel identified in our proposal will continue to perform the design work as an affiliate of 4C Global, Inc. 4Creeks, Inc. consents to and joins in this request.
Supporting Documentation. To support the City’s review and the preparation of Amendment No. 1, we are providing the following:
• Documentation confirming that 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build and 4Creeks, Inc. dba 4Creeks Design are affiliated entities within the 4Creeks corporate structure, under common ownership and control (Secretary of State filings and fictitious business name statement).
• Confirmation that Contractors State License Board License No. 964881 and Department of Industrial Relations Registration No. 1000010166 — the license and registration cited in the Contract — are held by 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build. • Payment and performance bonds issued in the name of 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build in the amounts required by the Contract Documents. • An updated IRS Form W-9 reflecting 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build. • Updated certificates of insurance and endorsements naming the City of Shafter as required by the Contract Documents, previously transmitted to your office.
We understand this letter will be included as an exhibit to Amendment No. 1 for consideration by the City Council at its August 18, 2026 meeting, and that the amendment will be limited to the assignment of the Agreement from 4Creeks, Inc. to 4C Global, Inc. dba 4Creeks Build, with all other terms and conditions of the Agreement remaining unchanged. We concur with that approach and are prepared to execute the amendment upon the City’s direction.
Thank you for your assistance and for the coordination with the City Attorney’s office. Please contact me directly if you, Ms. Uribe, or the City Attorney require any additional information to place this item on the August 18 agenda.
Sincerely,
Matthew Ainley, PE

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: August 18, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Kyle Ditty, Finance Analyst II
SUBJECT: STATE OF GOOD REPAIRS PROGRAM (SGR) FY 2026-27
PROJECT LIST AND GRANT AWARD RESOLUTION ADOPTION
RECOMMENDATION
Council find action is not a “project” as defined by Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines; adopt Resolution No. 3109, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Shafter approving the Project List for the Fiscal Year 2026-27 Grant Award from the California State of Good Repairs Program and Authorize the City Manager or Designee to Execute Budget Amendments, Grant Agreements; and Authorize the Execution of the Certifications and Assurances Form from the California State of Good Repairs Program.
BACKGROUND
California Department of Transportation administers SB1- State Good Repair (SGR) Program funds, which are made available for capital projects that maintain the public transit system in a state of good repair. The SGR Program is one of two programs that allocate SB1 funds to transit agencies through the State Transit Assistance Formula.
Funds allocated to public transit operators are based on the local needs. The goal of the SGR Program is to provide funding for capital assistance, rehabilitate and modernize California’s existing local transit systems.
Eligible Recipients
According to the California Department of Transportation SGR program guidelines pursuant to PUC Section 99314, the regional entities [KernCOG] shall suballocate funds to:
• Transit operators listed on the SCO’s SGR Allocation Estimate letter. • In addition, pursuant to PUC Section 99313, eligible agencies may participate in the regional process, as determined by the applicable regional entity, and may therefore also be an eligible recipient of PUC Section 99313 funding.
All SGR eligible agencies that are identified in the SCO’s annual SGR Allocation Estimate letter, must prepare and submit a project list to qualify for funding. Eligible recipients prepare and submit their project list to their respective regional entity. The regional entity shall review the project lists as submitted by the SGR eligible agencies in their region. If the projects listed are in compliance with these Guidelines, and no additional information is needed, the regional entity shall forward the project
STATE OF GOOD REPAIRS PROGRAM (SGR) FY 2026-27 PROJECT LIST AND GRANT AWARD
RESOLUTION ADOPTION
- 2 -
list(s) to Caltrans for review.
Eligible recipients assume responsibility and accountability for the use and expenditure of SGR funds and must comply with all relevant federal and state laws, regulations, policies and procedures.
Eligible Projects
SGR funds are made available for capital projects that maintain the public transit system in a state of good repair. PUC Section 99212.1 (c) lists the projects eligible for SGR funding as follows:
• Transit capital projects or services to maintain or repair a transit operator’s existing transit vehicle fleet or transit facilities, including the rehabilitation and/or modernization of the existing vehicles or facilities.
• The design, acquisition, and construction of new vehicles or facilities that improve existing transit services.
• Transit services that complement local efforts for repair and improvement of local transportation infrastructure.
Examples include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Replacement or rehabilitation of:
• Rolling stock
• Passenger stations and terminals
• Security equipment and systems
• Maintenance facilities and equipment
• Ferry vessels
• Rail
Transit Preventative Maintenance
• Preventative maintenance is only to maintain existing infrastructure and vehicles in a state of good repair, essentially repair and rehabilitation. Normal maintenance such as oil changes and other regularly scheduled vehicle maintenance are to be covered under the transit agency’s normal operating costs and are not eligible for SGR funding. • Public and Staff Safety
• New transit facilities or equipment needed to maintain existing transit service(s) Project List Scope
Utilize FY 2026-27 State of Good Repair (SGR) funds toward the acquisition of eligible transit vehicles and associated capital equipment to improve the safety, reliability, operational efficiency, and long-term condition of the City of Shafter's public transit fleet.
Final vehicle quantities and specifications will be determined based on available funding, procurement costs, and program eligibility requirements.
Prior to grant award apportionment, the Department of Transportation requires all potential recipient agencies to submit a board resolution and project list to the Department of Transportation prior to receiving their allocation.
FISCAL IMPACT
STATE OF GOOD REPAIRS PROGRAM (SGR) FY 2026-27 PROJECT LIST AND GRANT AWARD
RESOLUTION ADOPTION
- 3 -
Approval of the resolution will authorize the City to submit its FY 2026-27 SGR Project List. The City is estimated to receive $22,515 in SB 1 State of Good Repair grant funding. No General Fund contribution is required for approval of the project list. Any required local match or future budget amendments will be presented to the City Council, if applicable.
CEQA ANALYSIS
The action is not a “project” as defined by Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines because it involves approval of a resolution authorizing a projects list, which is an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment.

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: August 18, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Steve Esselman, Planning Director
SUBJECT: AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
AGREEMENT WITH PLACEWORKS, INC. FOR THE CITY OF
SHAFTER GENERAL PLAN UPDATE, DEVELOPMENT
REGULATION UPDATE, AND PROGRAMMATIC
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
RECOMMENDATION
Council find the action is not a “project” as defined by Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines; adopt Resolution No. 3110, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Shafter, approving Amendment No. 1 to the Professional Services Agreement with PlaceWorks Inc. for the City of Shafter General Plan Update, Development Regulation Update, and Programmatic Environmental Impact Report; and authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1.
BACKGROUND
On March 20, 2024, the City entered into a Professional Services Agreement with PlaceWorks, Inc. (“PlaceWorks”) to provide professional planning services for the City of Shafter General Plan Update, Development Regulation Update, and Programmatic Environmental Impact Report (“project”) (see Exhibit 1). The consultant has been performing the required services in accordance with the agreement and has assisted the City in advancing the project.
As work has progressed, additional services related to the Housing Element have been identified as necessary to complete the project. These services were not anticipated when the original agreement was approved and are necessary to ensure the successful completion of the project.
Amendment No. 1 modifies the existing Professional Services Agreement by expanding the consultant's scope of work to include professional planning services to update the Housing Element in compliance with State law (see Exhibit A of Exhibit 2). The amendment also increases the compensation by $127,045, resulting in a revised total contract amount not to exceed $1,626,706. The amendment also extends the agreement term through March 20, 2030, to allow sufficient time for completion of the additional work.
The additional services will enable the consultant to complete all remaining project

tasks and provide the City with the technical expertise necessary to achieve the project's objectives. Staff have reviewed the proposed amendment and determined that the additional scope and associated compensation are reasonable and consistent with industry standards.
Approval of the amendment will allow work to continue without interruption and avoid delays in project completion.
FISCAL IMPACT
Amendment No. 1 increases the agreement by $127,045, resulting in a revised total contract amount not to exceed $1,626,706. A budget adjustment is required to appropriate the additional contract authority; however, the amendment is not expected to require additional General Fund resources beyond those previously allocated for the project.
Expenditures for the General Plan Update were below budget in both FY 2024-25 and FY 2025-26 because consultant services were not completed or fully invoiced within the fiscal years in which they were budgeted. Consequently, previously appropriated project funding remained unspent and reverted to General Fund balance at fiscal yearend. The proposed budget adjustment effectively reappropriates a portion of these unspent project funds to support the remaining work, including the Housing Element update.
Accordingly, sufficient General Fund resources are available from prior-year project savings, and approval of the amendment is not expected to create an additional impact on the General Fund beyond the amounts previously planned for this project.
CEQA ANALYSIS
The action is not a “project” as defined by Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines because it is the approval of an amendment to a professional services agreement, which is an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment.

Project Understanding and Approach
Shafler's commitment to land use planning, strategic visioning, and fiscal and operational management have helped foster a city with a desirable quality of life, excellent parks and recreation, and a vibrant and growing economy, all of which continue to attract investment in housing and new residents. As the City commences with a comprehensive update to its General Plan and related development regulations, it is startingfrom a position of strength. ln addition to planning for opportunities, the update effort must consider potential challenges. For example, as housing has expanded from northwest Bakersfield, areas planned for residential growth in southeast Shafter continue to build-out. With a large expanse of farmland between Gossamer Grove a nd the historic core of Shafter, however, there is the cha llenge of Shafter growing into two different cities. While there will likely be a land use planning component to this, there are economic development considerations. Residents in southeast Shafter are closer to shopping, dining, and entertainment at Northwest Promenade and nearly as close to downtown Bakersfield as they are to downtown Shafter. As southeast Shater continues to grow and develop, the city will need to capitalize on commercial opporlunities in order to limit the leakage of retail spending to Bakersfield. Equally as important will be the need to foster and maintain a sense of community among the neighborhoods and subareas of Shafter in order to maintain community support for strategic and fiscally prudent city management.
The General Plan Update (GPU) provides the opportunity to focus on the City's top-line budget strategy. ln business terms, a top-line strategy is a business'plan to grow and expand its market share and increase revenues. This is exactly what a general plan is for a municipality. As the center of population in California, Shafter is realizing its potentialto serve as logistics hub and is benefitting from the jobs, economic activity, and net revenue generation that industrial development can provide. And with the City's foresight in annexation, Shafter has the uncommon potential to accommodate continued industrial development without affecting nearby sensitive receptors. The planning process provides the opportunity to consider the long-term development potentialindustrial, commercial, and residential-and to not only plan for a fiscal balance among land uses but also to avoid land use incompatibilities.
The historic core of Shafter is traditional American town development-a railway with a main street commercial area perpendicular to the railroad tracks and industrial uses spread along the opposite side of the railroad tracks. The GPU will allow for a grand revisioning of downtown Shafter. This includes integrating land use and development on both sides of the railroad tracks with a reconsideration of historic downtown industrial sites. However, it also includes new visioning (and policies and implementation measures) for what the downtown commercial core should be-how it can best serve the needs of residents living in proximity to downtown and how it can best attract residents from throughout the city, serving as the central place for Shafter and strengthening the sense of community.
The GPU also is the time to re-evaluate the long-term implications of growth and development, consider trade-offs, and establish the community's vision for the future Shafter. This may include many quality-of-life factors, such as parks and recreation, the adequacy of local health care, and accessibility to education and job training. But it also includes analyzing the potential for water supply to support additional residents as well as the costs and funding for infrastructure needed to support the city's long-term buildout. To tie all of this together, the GPU process will consider the Proposal: City of Shafter General Plan Update and EtR December 4,2023 | Page2
@ rr.nce w*RKs
fiscal implications of the future Land Use Plan and the City's capacity to pay for desired levels of service for public facilities and public services.
Additionally, while the current General Plan provides a framework for Shafter to grow into a fiscally sound city and a desirable place to live and to operate a business, there have been numerous changes to state planning laws and numerous changes in the practice of long-range planning. These include community environmental health and justice (including City work through ZOZL), air quality, active transportation; hazard planning, and climate resilience and adaptation. Moreover, the practice of long-range planning has evolved to incorporate extensive public engagement, empowering residents to meaningfully influence land use and development policies, regulations, and implementation programs. All of these factors must be considered to produce . LpU tt,rt serves as an effective tool for decision making.
Finally, technology has changed dramatically since the city adopted its current General plan. Webbased maps and tools for public engagement have greatly improved the two-way flow of information during the planning process. with this update, the City has an opportunity to transform its General Plan into an accessible and dynamic tool, not only for land use and development but for ongoing municipal management. And with programmatic environmental clearance provided by an ElR, the City will facilitate streamlined planning and approvals for all development that is consistent with the long-term vision and the guiding principles, goals, and policies contained in the updated GeneralPlan.
Staff Added to our Team
PlaceWorks is happy to announce that Malia Durand (Project Manager for the 6th Cycle Housing Element while previously at lnfrastructure Engineers) is now employed by placeWorks and has been selected to be the Project Manager for the CEeA effort.
Task Structure
As illustrated in the Project Schedule, the Scope of work consists of a set of sequential tasks that reflect the chronological order of activities and deliverables to prepare the GpU (Tasks 1 to 7), and a set of ongoing tasks that are conducted at multiple points or throughout the duration of the GpU (Tasks 8 to 10).
TASK 1. PROJECT KICK OFF
Task 1.1 Kick-Off Meeting
The kick-off meeting is critical in shaping a successful GPU. City staff and consultant team members must collaborate effectively if the work plan is to be completed with the desired quality and within the expected time frame and budget. The kick-off meeting allows the project team to:
r lntroduce key participants
r Refine the work program, scope of work, and schedule (confirm desired timelines for milestone deliverables)
o ldentify the roles of anticipated stakeholders such as outside agencies, organizations, property owners, and individuals
o ldentify available resources and any current or related projects that must be considered r Refine communication protocols for the project
Proposal: City of Shafter General plan Update and EtR December 4, 2023 | Page 3
@ rr-ac€wcnKs
e Address ongoing implementing projects or programs that could potentially affect the project r Discuss public participation protocol
The kick-off meeting could also include representatives from other City departments, such as public Works, Economic Development, Engineering, the GIS office, and the City Manager,s Office, among others.
Deliverable(s):
> Draft and final agenda
Task 1.2 Public Participation protocols
Through previous work on Environmental Health and Justice and with the Housing Element in the state's hands for review, the City has already elevated the public's awareness of planning issues and obtained input on key issues related to housing. PlaceWorks will coordinate with placeWorks, new staff member, Malia Durand, and the City to build on what was successful and improve approaches and materials as desired.
while our proposal recommends an array of tools and activities, this task provides the time for PlaceWorks and the City to refine our preliminary outreach strategy and establish more detailed guidance for public relations and community engagement activities lnformed by discussion during the Kick-off Meeting. PlaceWorks will prepare a Public Participation protocol that documents:
. Objectives for public involvement
o Review of guiding principles for the outreach process I Program activity descriptions (purpose, schedule, approach, logistics, and responsibilities) o Confirmation of potential community partners, stakeholder groups, and agency outreach o GPAC purpose, membership, meeting topics and dates, participation considerations, and rules and procedures
o Communication techniques, consistent with established City protocols for website postings, email blasts, tweets, etc. (including City's preferences for website hosting, and identification of long-lead time items to inform the project schedule)
r Level of bilingual translation and interpretation (this scope and budget assumes that outreach materials for the GPU will be available in English and Spanish and live interpretation for Spanish speakers will be available at live events)
Deliveroble(s):
> Public Participation Protocols
Task 1.3 Stakeholder Outreach
Stakeholder interviews and focus groups help to pinpoint issues, opportunities, and constraints as a means to inform the GPU. The primary purpose is to capitalize on participants' wealth of information, history, institutional knowledge, and i.rnderstanding of issues. lnterviews with outside agencies are also useful for discussing the GPU, future projects, activities for greater coordination and understanding, and how each will shape or influence the update effort. Stakeholder interviews, especially when conducted soon after project kick-off, can also be a valuable way to quickly identifiT opportunities to reach out and involve other members of the community.
Proposal: City of Shafter General plan Update and EIR December 4, 2023 | Page 4
@ rlncrl,vonKs
Placeworks will coordinate with City staff to develop a list of potential stakeholder representatives and groups for interviews, coordinate scheduling, facilitate the interviews, and create an input summary identifying major themes. lnterviews and focus groups will be conducted by PlaceWorks' Principal-in-Charge and Project Manager or Assistant Project Manager (or senior level topical experts) via phone, Teams, or Zoom.
Deliverable(s):
> Draft and final list of potential community partners and stakeholders ) Up to 4 hours of email coordination, up to 8 hours by two staff members for virtual meetings and phone calls
> Summary of interviews (major themes)
Task 1.4 Project Branding
To create Citywide project recognition that will elevate awareness of the General Plan effort and associated project-related technical studies, PlaceWorks will develop a project logo, tagline, and color palette (style guide) to theme the project. This will create a recognizable identity that takes design cues from the unique characteristics of Shafter and builds on key themes the City wants to promote. The project logo and brand package may include a combination of symbols, text, colors, or graphics to create a recognizable brand for the General Plan.
Deliverable(s):
> Draft Project logo/branding (3 maximum digitalfiles)
> Final logo artwork: Digital file
> Draft and finaltemplates for PowerPoint presentations and Social Media posts (digitalfiles of each)
> Style guide (final logo, fonts, color palette, templates for PowerPoint and Social Media) TASK 2. COMMUNITY LAUNCH
Expanding our reach beyond key stakeholders, the following tasks focus on creating content and communications to expand the public's awareness of the GPU, highlighting essential inforrfiation on the GPU's purpose, importance forthe community, key milestones, and outreach opportunities.
Task 2.1 Project Website
PlaceWorks will either host an independent project website or work with City staff to create a p roject page with in the City's existing we bsite. P laceWo rks will p rovide co ntent fo r website u pdates th roughout the process.

> Up to two handouts with General Plan 101 materials in pDF formats Task 2.3 Project Marketing for Community Launch
To raise awareness of the GPU across all cross-sections of Shafter residents, placeWorks proposes a two-pronged approach to reach people where they are most comfortable.
The first avenue of engagement would promote the GPU through the City's existing digital channels, including posts on social media accounts and eblasts to identified stakeholder organizations and interested parties. PlaceWorks will provide narrative and graphic content for the City to post on social media channels.
The second avenue of engagement would complement the project's digital presence with an analogue effort, including utility bill inserts, announcements and bulletin inserts with local churches, schools, and other com munity groups, fliers posted in store windows (e.g., Apple Market) as well as temporary signage placed in parks, museums, and along Central Avenue announcing the GPU and providing links and a QR code to access the project website (Announcements or similar page with a current call to action, such as a survey).
Deliverable(s):
> Draft and final Facebook and lnstagram posts in English and Spanish > Draft and final eblast for identified stakeholders (1 eblast announcing the project and community survey, up to 2 reminder eblasts)

Task 2.5. Community Pop-Ups
Pop-ups are a fun, quick, and sometimes spontaneous way to interact with the public in an environment that is comfortable for them. Visiting the community where they live, shop, or recreate can often be more effective compared to requesting the public attend a community meeting' While these events may be relatively spontaneous for participants, they require careful planning by the consultant team in coordination with City staff. We envision our first pop-up event would build awareness, promote the community survey, and gather input from community members about relevant issues, community values, and vision for the future of Shafter. we anticipate the first pop-up will take place shortly after launching our digital presence and concurrentwith the installation of signagethroughoutthe community. lf feasible, itwould begreat to conduct one or more pop-up at some of the activities associated with the newly returned Celebration of the Arts: COLOURS in late Febru ary 2024.
Deliverable(s):
> Up to three pop-up events
> Summary of results
Task 2.6. PCICC Briefing #1
PlaceWorks recommends conducting briefings with the Planning Commission and City Council early to keep them aware and engaged duringthe update process. These briefings could be conducted at public meetings or as one-on-one interviews with each member. This first briefing would provide an overview of the Community Launch efforts, including the results of the Community Survey, and highlight the next steps in the GpU process.
Deliveroble(s):
> Presentation materials
> Attendance at PC and CC meeting or virtual interviews with PC and CC members TASK 3. DISCOVERY
While some of the baseline work has been accomplished by previous efforts, including the draft updates to the Housing and Environmental Health and Justice elements, the placeWorks Team will update current information and evaluate new topics. PlaceWorks will lead the effort and be supported by Fehr & Peers and Provost & Pritchard. Some due diligence will be conducted to support land use and transportation planning, such as existing conditions, pending development plans, market and fiscal conditions, and roadway and infrastructure capacities. Other topics and studies are driven by environmental clearance, such as air quality and greenhouse gas emissions, or by new state requirements, such as climate adaptation and resiliency.
Task 3.1 Review of Existing plans, Studies, and Documentation This task involves collecting comprehensive information about Shafter from existing planning documents and technical studies related to land use and policy. The intent is to augment our teams, current understanding of Shafter and its planning context, to identlfy where previous information and mapping can be used and where new analysis and data is needed, and to ensure that the GpU is consistent with other planning and regulatory documents (also identifying areas where updates Proposal: City of Shafter General plan Update and EIR December4, 2023 | PageT

Focused telephone calls and follow-up with City staff may be necessary to obtain relevant information.
Deliverable(s):
) Data collection, with appropriate information documented forfuture use in the Existing Conditions Story Map and other tasks
Task 3.2 Review of Existing Goals, Objectives, and Policies PlaceWorks will coordinate with City staff to evaluate the current General Plan as well as the draft Environmental Health and Justice document, identifying content that 1) is still appropriate, 2) is completed, 3) should be moved to other plans or ordinances, or 4) should be modified or deleted to ensure compliance with state law or in consideration of best practices. This technical review will be further refined after the visioning work is completed to ensure alignment with the City's updated vision statement and community values.
Deliverable(s):
> Policy review matrix with recommendations and explanations for proposed changes Task 3.3 Existing Land Use Assessment
An accurate existing land use map is important to identify opportunity areas for future land use changes, accurately estimate buildout, and conduct environmental analyses. lt also engenders greater trust with the City's GPAC members, residents, and businesses by communicating our knowledge of the local area. PlaceWorks will prepare an inventory of existing land uses on a parcel basis, informed by a review of internal records and aerial research. We will include the Proposal: City of Shafter General Plan Update and EIR December 4, 2023 | Page 8
@ rr-ncf;lv$RKs

Deliverable(s):
> G|S-based existing land use map
> Statisticalsummaryofexistinglanduses,calculatedattheparcel levelandcalibratedagainst published resources such as the California Department of Finance and the U.S. Census Task 3.4 Mobility Assessment
Fehr & Peers will prepare a background report summarizing existing mobility conditions, including an lnventory of transportation facilities (roadway, public parking, transit, pedestrian, bicycle) and a summary of their current operations. We will utilize a layered network strategy to showcase every aspect of transportation infrastructure and services comprehensively. The background report will also include existing functional classification of city streets, collision statistics within Shafter over the past five years, and pertinent traffic and travel information available from the City, Kern COG, US Census, and other sources. Additional data may include existing transit services and facilities, existing bicycle facilities, and existing pedestrian facilities.
Although state law has moved away from level-of-service (LOS) as a threshold in environmental clearance, the performance of the City's overall roadway network remains of paramount importance. Fehr & Peers will record roadway segment and intersection traffic counts to inform policy evaluation, land use planning considerations, and the desired LOS metrics for operatlonal analysis. Fehr & Peers will investigate how the KernCOG Traffic Count Database System, which provides comprehensive average daily traffic (ADT) counts, can be utilized to reduce the cost of collecting and processing new counts. This scope includes analysis of up to 15 street segments using recent published data (from the KernCOG database or another source). published data will be augmented by collecting new turning movement counts by mode (autos, trucks, bicycles, and pedestrians) at up to 10 study intersections during typical weekday AM and pM peak periods (4- hour counts). Specific analysis locations will be defined in consultation with City Staff.
Finally, the goods movement network is of particular importance to the Shafter GpU effort. Fehr & Peers recently completed the Kern Area Regional Goods Movement Operations (KARGO) Sustainability Study Phases I & ll. Phase I of the study was focused on developing infrastructure project concepts that facilitate logistics operations while mitigating adverse impacts on disadvantaged communities such as the City of Shafter. The BNSF Rail Terminal and the Wonderful lndustrial Park are crucial to Shafter's economy, and both have planned developments to accommodate future growth. PlaceWorks and Fehr & Peers will document these plans and work with City staff to identify additional plans and priorities for goods movement throughout the planning area.

Provost & Pritchard will document the capacity and condition of the local water supply and distribution system, wastewater conveyance and treatment system, and storm drainage capture and conveyance system based on the latest available master plan and related documents prepared for the City and service providers within the planning area boundary. lnput and guidance will be sought from City public works, engineering representatives, and applicable service providers.
Additional information will include legislative and regulatory frameworks and a high level assessment of dry utilities, including telecommunications, electrical, and gas, based on available information in consultation with the City and service providers.
Deliverable(s):
> Drafl and Final lnfrastructure Assessment
Task 3.6 Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment
State law requires local governments to prepare a climate change vulnerability assessment (vulnerability assessment) as part of general plan updates to identify local vulnerabilities to climate change and to inform the preparation of climate adaptation and resiliency goals, policies, and actions. PlaceWorks will prepare the vulnerability assessment for Shafter to be consistent with guidance state and regional resources, including the California Adaptation Planning Guide. We will rely on the most accurate and up-to-date science on the effects of climate change, using the best available and approved State resources, including Cal-Adapt and the California Fourth Climate Assessment, local studies and reports, and all other relevant sources, such as the Caltrans District 6 Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment.
The vulnerability assessment will include three primary steps: 1) identification of climate hazards, populations, and assets; 2) vulnerability scoring of each applicable climate hazard and asset; and 3) a summary of the results. PlaceWorks will prepare a list of all hazards, populations, and assets to be assessed based on our understanding of the conditions in Shafter, state and regional guidance, and best practices. PlaceWorks will use the hazards, populations, and community assets to evaluate how vulnerable the community is to climate change hazards. These results will be translated into a vulnerability score, ranging from low (minimum vulnerabillty) to very high (severe vulnerability). We will work closely with City staff to ground truth the results of the climate vulnerability assessment to ensure that the assessment accurately reflects the community. The results of the scoring will be integrated into the safety Element Background Report.
Deliverable(s):
> Administrative Draft and Final memo identifying climate hazards, populations, assets (electronic copies, Word and PDF)
> Administrative Draft and Final Vulnerability Assessment Scoring Workbook (electronic copies, Excel)
> Vulnerability Assessment Summary for inclusion in Administrative Draft and Final Background Report (electronic copies, Word and PDF)
Task 3.7 Safety Element Background Report and Mapping
PlaceWorks will prepare a comprehensive Safety Element Background Report concurrently with the Vulnerability Assessment that will provide hazard-specific information and details to meet Government Code requirements while allowing the hard copy and web-based formats of the updated General Plan to remain more streamlined. The Background Report content will provide Proposal: City of Shafter General PIan Update and EtR December 4, 2023 | Page L0
@ nlncrwonKs
details on all hazards affecting the city, including geologic and seismic hazards, flooding (including dam and levee failure), urban fire hazards (wildfire as it relates to indirect smoke), drought, severe weather (including extreme heat, winds, and severe weather), dust storms, hazardous materials, and additional climate change hazards covered in the Vulnerability Assessment. Each hazard section will define the hazard and extent of the hazard, include applicable mapping of the hazard, provide an overview of historic occurrences, explain the likelihood of future occurrence, describe how climate change will affect the likelihood and severity of future occurrences. We will also include a section on disaster preparedness, response, and recovery. For this Report, we anticipate referencing relevant information in the 2020 Kern County Multijurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan (MJHMP) and pulling in the results from the Vulnerability Assessment where applicable. The Report will also provide implications for the Safety Element update.
The California Government Code requires that the Safety Element includes up-to-date maps on flood hazards, wildfire hazards, and climate-related hazards. The PlaceWorks Geographic lnformation System (GlS) team will prepare a comprehensive set of maps for the Safety Element that will include data from the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE), Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), California Geological Survey (CGS), California Department of Water Resources (DWR), California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), and other state or regionalagencies. PlaceWorks will prepare a base map that identifies criticalfacilities and infrastructure essential for daily operations and emergency events, drawing from the MJHMp and existing Safety Element where possible. Once reviewed and approved by City staff, PlaceWorks will use the base map to create the hazard maps for the Background Report. After City staff review and provide a consolidated set of comments, PlaceWorks will add the maps into the Final Background Report and will integrate them into the updated Safety Element. As part of preparation of maps for the Safety Element, PlaceWorks will identify and map evacuation routes and evacuation constrained residential maps as directed by SB 99.

Task 3.8 Environmental Health and Justice Assessment
While the City conducted a substantial amount of outreach and analysis through its efforts to prepare a draft Environmental Health and Justice document (2021), PlaceWorks will review the draft effort for consistency with the latest analysis and direction from the Office of the Attorney General, data from CalEnviroScreen 4.0, and the status of AB 617 and associated Community Emissions Reduction Plan effofts. As there is a substantial degree of overlap between the topics of health, environmentaljustice, and air quality, this task will provide critical direction to complete the previous efforts in a manner that addresses state law and appropriately addresses the desires expressed by the community, both in the past and as received during outreach efforts in 2024.

Task 3.9 Existing Conditions Story Map
Establishing a clear and informed baseline for planning and environmental analysis is critical to a successful and defensible plan and ElR. Except as required to support the ElR, placeWorks will emphasize succinct analysis and formatting for existing conditions documentation. The intent is to communicate the essential information that should influence options and decisions, presented in a manner that engages the public, key stakeholders, and City leaders. Given the prevalence of Spanish-speaking households, PlaceWorks envisions drawing upon its experience preparing multilingual technical materials to ensure all information is distributed in a manner accessible to all residents.
We have experienced great success reaching a broader audience by leveraging our GIS and website development skills to create bilingual web-based story maps that can be viewed on a phone, tablet, or computer to relay technical information-allowing for the placement of photographs and interactive maps alongside brief narratives. To succinctly and meaningfully convey the findings from this task and related technical study information to the public, placeWorks will develop a story map to communicate the essential information that should influence options and decisions.
Deliverable(s):
> Drafl and Finalstory map in English, and final story map in Spanish TASK 4. VtStON, VALUES, AND TSSUES
This task will ensure a solid understanding of the conditions, trends, issues, and potentials to be addressed in the GPU. lt will also continue the exploration of policy options City leaders should consider.
Task 4.1GPAC Formation and Orientation
Over the last 40 years, we have successfully worked with and without advisory committees as a part of general plan updates. lf the meetings and membership are structured well and operated with a clear set of expectations and direction, GPACs can be an incredible asset. GpACs can serve as an efficient method of ensuring a broad range of community voices are heard throughout the GPU process, establish a public forum (outside Council Chambers)for constructive dialogue, and create a set of GPU ambassadors that help educate, inform, and encourage participation.from others in the community. Conversely, if structured poorly with vague direction and superficial responsibility, GPACs can become an obstacle to progress and consensus, consume a considerable amount of budget, and extend project schedules.
Examples of GPAC membership include individuals from the City Council, planning Commission, Richland School District, Chamber of Commerce, other service providers, and up to six active and appropriate stakeholders or residents. lncluding one or two representatives from the City Council and Planning Commission keeps these decision-making bodies informed throughout the update process and can increase the viability of the GPAC's discussions and recommendations.
PlaceWorks recommends that the charge of the GPAC be to review and provide recommendations to City stafF, the consultant team, and ultimately the City Council on key components, such as the vision, guiding principles and overarching goals, land use alternatives plans, and the draft General Plan. This scope includes five GPAC meetings based on our understanding of the City, the issues and opportunities it is considering, and the desire to complete the GpU by January 2026.

lf designed properly, large in-person public meetings can gather input and generate buy-in from a broad range of community members while enabling city and consultant staff to connect with and engage many individual residents and stakeholders more efficiently and personally. Four key aspects are: identifying the right time in the project to conduct such meetings, building awareness and excitement with key stakeholders, providing real substance to which the community can respond, and engaging participants one-on-one and through interactive tools.
The first community open house is intended to continue and expand awareness, educate the community on the City's current context and conditions (based on the findings of the discovery phase and community survey), facilitate community input on areas of potential change, key issues, and the big ideas outlined in the current General Plan, and share their vision and values for the future of Shafter.

This task focuses on turning the long-term Vision Statement, guiding principles, and overarching goals into a series of land use and mobility alternatives that will help the City understand the amount, type location, and phasing of improvements for existing areas and growth into new areas.
5.l Charrette
PlaceWorks anticipates bringing in our design experts who have intimate familiarity working both in the Kern County region and in the field of master plannlng. Randy Jackson (President and Principal) and Scott Ashlock (Associate Principal and Design Practice Area Leader) can quickly identify a variety of land use alternatives for growing over time based on current market demands, likely forecasts, proximity to Bakersfield and the City's central core, current and future plans for industrial development, and strategies associated with transitioning and marketing agricultural lands. PlaceWorks would conduct this charrette in here parls over the course of three days.
5.1.1GPAC Meeting #3
First, PlaceWorks will coordinate with City staff to conduct a 3- to 4-hour GPAC meeting during which our designers, economist, and mobility and infrastructure team members will guide GPAC members through a series of land use and mobility design exercises to illustrate various land use scenarios (bubble diagrams/urban form level of detail). We will emphasize a discussion of alignment to the Vision Statement and potential implications (e.g., fiscal, phasing, equity, etc.). The intent is to educate and learn from GPAC members on what futures are possible, what futures Proposal: City of Shafter General Plan Update and EIR December 4, 2023 | Page L4
@ rr-,*e EV/e:fiKs
would require more change than is likely, and what variables need to be kept in mind when opportunities or conditions change.
5.1.2 Stakeholder interviews
lnformed by the GPAC meeting, Placeworks will reconnect with stakeholders from task 1.3 to review preliminary conceptual land use scenarios and obtain feedback from key members of the Shafter community.
5.1.3 Public Office Hours
Finally, PlaceWorks willcoordinate with Citystaff to hostvirtualoffice hours with the public, during which PlaceWorks and City staff will be available at specific time slots to review the land use scenarios: how they were prepared, potential issues and implications, and feedback. These office hours could also be held in person duringthe second and/or third day.

Task 5.2 Conceptual Land Use Alternatives
The PlaceWorks Team will use the input collected during the Charrette to work with City staffto create up to two citywide land use alternatives to the current Land Use Plan and will analyze and present our evaluation of development potential, visual impacts, transportation demands, infrastructure and service demands, phasing, financialfeasibility, fiscal impac! public improvement costs, and potential EIR implications, along with how each alternative meets the City's revised Vision Statement, overarching goals, and guiding principles. PlaceWorks will compile this information on a citywide and growth area basis and compare existingconditions, the current land use plan and proposed land use alternatives using Esri-based modeling tools. This information will be presented to City stafffor direction on the preferred land use plan.
To enable City staff, decision-makers, property owners, and the public to understand the development options better, PlaceWorks will also generate visual illustrations, photo simulations, or digital renderings of the development options for the areas of potential change that merit special focus or maybe more contentious in the public discussion.
Because there is so much potential for growth in Shafter, the full buildout of the land use plan may go many years beyond a typical planning horizon. Our typical approach in cities with large growth potential is to estimate full buildout to develop an accurate depiction of the ultimate growth so the City can appropriately plan, design, and fund its roadways, infrastructure, and public services and continue to progress toward its vision statement.

This task addresses the production of the GPU itself, including an update and modernization of existing elements and the addition of topics and/or elements. Though every general plan must address a similar set of topics, and many are presented in a common structure, we tailor our approach to match our client's needs, objectives, and budget. Below we refer to each section of the GPU as an "element" instead of the current Gp's use of the word "program," although either term can be used duringthe planning process and in the final document.

@ rlncrlvcni{s
Task 5.1. General Plan Elements
Task 6.1.1 land Use
Many of the underlying growth assumptions that drove the current Land Use Plan have changed dramatically. State mandates, climate change, and changing demographics, behaviors and spending patterns necessitate a new look at land use planning and growth in general in Shafter.
Based on the existing conditions, technical studies and community engagement, PlaceWorks will prepare land use plans, urban design concepts, zoning recommendations, and updatesto land use policies.
The centralfocus of the Land Use Element is the preferred land use, finalized in Task 5. The element will include goals and policies focused on the character, scale, and density or intensity of each land use designation. The land use diagram will identify areas expected to be preserved, areas envisioned to be redeveloped or intensified, areas for new development, and areas to be conserved. The Element will also include a growth strategy to guide the long-term growth and development of Shafter in a way that protects and enhances the community's quality of life and that supports the City's continued fiscal resiliency.
PlaceWorks proposes to incorporate community deign provision in the Land Use Element. This could include characterization of various of the Shafter by urban form, such as residential neighborhoods, centers and districts for commerce and industry, mixed-use areas, and corridors. lnherent in the identification of these areas by urban form is the inclusion of policies to preserve community character and to ameliorate compatibility issues. These goals and policies will provide support for the inclusion of objective design standards into the development code.
Because a large area of the City is currently in active agricultural production, the Land Use Element will also address agricultural uses, urban-rural interface, and the preservation of prime farm land.
The intent is to provide policies to mitigate, to the degree feasible, the conversion of prime farm land.
Task 6.1.2 Transportation and Mobility
New laws, planning guidelines, and trends have emerged that require a fresh perspective for developing the Transportation Element and associated transportation components of the Environmental Hazards Element especially related to wildfire risk and evacuation. The list below includes the most significant of these changes.
Complete Streets. Legislation enacted through Assembly Bill 1358 (passed in 2008) requires planning of complete streets and reliable funding to ensure the transportation network will enable people of all ages and abilities to travelwithin and through the City of Shafter. This does not mean that every street must accommodate every mode of transportation, but it does mean that we will evaluate the City's existing networks and potential expansions to maximize connectivity for all modes, keeping in mind what is feasible in the short- and long-term. Fehr & Peers will also work closely with City staff and PlaceWorks to identify preferred locations for logistics and other industrial uses, alongwith land use buffers, truck routes, and access design standardsto minimize maintenance costs and impacts on residents and sensitive receptors, such as schools, medical facilities, and parks.
Disruptive Trends. The COVID-19 pandemic and a variety of other disruptive trends including ridehailing, electric and autonomous vehicles, new travel modes (e-bikes), micro-transit, internet shopping, and demographics are changing the amount and type of travel demand. Given the City's Proposal: City of Shafter General Plan Update and EIR December 4,2023 | Page 17
@ rlaccwoftKs
proximityto Bakersfield and expanded abilityto work remotely, we anticipate a focus on balancing travel demand and transportation network supply while also considering the implications for land use changes and economic development.
CEQA Guidelines. Senate Bll 743 (passed in 2013), was implemented through the 2018 CEeA Guidelines Update, replacing vehicle level of service (LOS) with vehicle miles of travel (VMT) for purposes of environmental impact analysis under CEQA. Required guidance from OPR establishes aggressive VMT reduction thresholds that need to be integrated with other VMT-related reduction expectations associated with state goals. Addressing VMT impacts at the general plan level can provide the City with substantial flexibility for SB 743 compliance.
Hazard Planning. The state legislature has been actively raising expectations for cities and counties to address risks and impacts of natural hazards in safety-related updates to the gener4l plan. Just two examples are Senate Bill 99 and Assembly Bill 747, both of which require an analysis of evacuation risks, access, routes, and travel time and performance. Fehr & Peers is helping jurisdictions across California conduct this technical analysis at a variety of scales and budgets to meaningfully inform the City, public, and other agencies about the relationship between hazardous events and where we plan our roadway networks, criticalfacilities, and neighborhoods.
With this context, the general plan and associated EIR will form the City's responses to changes and new expectations. These responses will directly influence the City's ability to achieve desired transportation outcomes for the future. As such, the technical scope of work for the general plan transportation analysis can be developed by Fehr & Peers to meet new legal and planning requirements while also providing a risk assessment about how changes and new expectations could threaten or disrupt desired outcomes.
Task 5.1.3 Economic Growth
Building beyond its.agricultural roots, Shafter is growing, driven in large part by major economic development assets, from fiber optic trunk lines and its own municipal fiber optic network to major railfacilities, freeways, and ready-to-develop industrial properties. The City has done its part, from stepping up to fund economic development after the dissolution of redevelopment agencies to strategic planning going back to 1986 and transforming City properties into economic development opportunity sites.
Clearly non-residential development will be a key component of future growth and development in the city. With in-house economics expertise, PlaceWorks will ensure that economic development considerations are woven throughout the general plan and incorporated into the development code. For example, with the potentialfor rail-using industrial uses, and growing public concern over the environmental effects of the logistics sector, land use compatibility will be an important issue.
It's not enough to have economic development element policies supporting industrial development, it is also crucial that economic development goals are reflected in the land use plan and compatibility policies.
PlaceWorks will also collaborate with the City to identify how best to integrate economic development and the General Plan. Most commonly, our clients are already or will be using an economic development strategic plan. ln these cases, we craft the Economic Development Element to provide long-term vision and goals and to provide policy guidance for strategic planning and investments. This is the path we took recently with the Moorpark General Plan, which is now undertaking their first strategic plan, and also with Clovis, which had and continues to have a Proposal: City of Shafter General Plan Update and EIR December 4, 2023 | Page 18
@ PLACTV/CRJ{5
regular economic development strategic planning program. We also employed this approach with both Corcoran and Avenal, and in both of these communities we also helped them to craft their first economic development action plans.
Task 6.1.4 Environmental Health and Justice
Placeworks will build upon the substantial effort conducted to prepare a draft element on this topic, ensuring all documentation is up-to-date, reviewing draft strategies to ensure compliance with state law (and the ability to withstand review by the California Attorney General's office), and identifying implications and priorities for land use, transportation, infrastructure, and other public facility plans and investments. Placeworks helped author some of the state's first environmental justice elements and has created environmental justice, health, arrd air quality elements for communities throughout California. We also authored a toolkit with the California Environmental .Justice Alliance for local government agencies, planners, and communities to implement Senate Bill 1000, and have identified key air quality improvement strategies both within the Generat plan and EIR contexts,
Task 6.1.5 Air Quality
The Air Quality Element will satisfy the requirements of AB 170 and provide strong support for the efforts of the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District to manage and improve air quality in Shafter and throughout the valley. The work to prepare the element will include and the element will memorialize the required report describing local air quality conditions, including: air quality monitoring data, emissions inventory, significant source categories, attainment status and designations, and state and federal air quality and transportation plans. we will work with staff to explore ways to address local air quality issues while satisfying the regional requirements.
PlaceWorks will take a holistic approach to air quality, weaving air quality considerations throughout other elements in the General Plan, including land use planning, economic development, transportation and mobility, and envlronmental health and justice and using the Air Quality Element goals and policies to reflect the plan-wide commitment to improving air quality.
Task 6.1.6 Environmental Hazards / Safety
Both the regulatory framework and the realities of public safety have evolved substantially in the past 18 years, including the requirement to update safety elements to address climate adaptation and resiliency. The Safety Element will require a comprehensive update to incorporate the office of Planning and Research's (oPR's) latest General Plan Guidelines for compliance with California Government Code 65302(9) updates resulting from SB 379 and 1035 regarding climate change adaptation and resilience, in addition to SB 1241, SB 99, and others related to wildfire mapping, hazard mitigation, and evacuation routes.
To develop an updated Element, the PlaceWorks team will follow review of the existing Safety Elementoutlinedintask3.Twithreviewotherexistingplans,suchasthe2020MJHMp and2022 Emergency Operations Plan and associated annexes. We will review these plans and programs for best practices and for recent content that could be integrated into the updated Safety Element.
PlaceWorks will prepare an existing plan review crosswalk, which will compare the Government Code requirements with the content in the existing Safety Element, along with other hazard and adaptation planning documents, to identify gaps that can be addressed during the update process.
The plan review crosswalk will provide recommendations on how to address regulatory gaps in the existing Safety Element, either through integration of existing technical studies and analyses, policies, or other content, as well as updates of existing information, and preparation of new analyses, maps, or content.
Proposal: City of Shafter General PIan Update and EtR December 4, 2023 | Page 19
@ nacnwfiRKs
The Placeworks team will prepare an updated Safety Element that complies with all applicable State laws to protect public health, safety, and welfare of the City of Shafter. our approach to this update is to address key issues related to natural and environmental hazards in Shafter while being responsive to the requirements of the California Government Code and State agencies. We will also preserve existing Safety Element policies as appropriate, revising existing policies where necessary based on the existing element policy review and crosswalk.
California SB 379 requires allgeneral plans to include climate adaptation and resiliency strategies in their safety elements. The Vulnerability Assessment will inform the preparation of climate adaptation and resilience goals, policies, and implementation actions designed to reduce the identified vulnerabilities and increase resilience and preparation for anticipated climate-related hazards' Although many of the climate adaptation and resiliency goals and policies have an obvious home in the Safety Element, achievement of the goals and implementation of policies requires a cross-sector approach. ln response to the updated requirements fcjr general plans, our approach includes climate adaptation and resiliency as integral components, integrated throughout elements as applicable and nested in the safety element. We emphasize a "no regrets" approach that builds short- and long-term community resiliency and provides co-benefits such as financial savings, a resilient economy, conservation of natural resources, and improvements to public health. we will streamline the element by creating policies that address multiple issues of concern and provide multiple benefits.
AIso included in this task, PlaceWorks will coordinate with the California office of Emergency Services, the office of Planning and Research's lntegrated Climate Adaptation and Resiliency Program, and the Department of Conservation's California Geological Survey as necessary and appropriate. State agency reviews are anticipated to occur concurrently with the CEeA review through the State Clearinghouse. However, our team will alert Cal OES when we initiate work on the Safety Element.
Task 6.1.7 Environmental Management
Much of the analysis in the environmental health, justice, and hazards elements willoverlap into how the City maintains and protects the natural and cultural resources. placeWorks will evaluate how the City can ensure consistency with state law in a manner that also adds value to current and future neighborhoods. For example, Senate 8il11,425 (passed in 2O2Z), which requires measures and strategies to ensure equity, climate resilience, and rewilding as imperatives to protect natural habitat and open space. As discussed in the topic of land use, PlaceWorks brings its expertise in preparing large-scale master plans that work with the natural environment and agricultural context to generate future neighborhoods that are sustainable and highly desirable.
Task 6.1.8 Housing
As the City completes its Housing Element update, PlaceWorks will coordinate with the City to ensure consistency with other elements. Based on the City's August 2023 letter from HCD, some additional work may be necessary on the sites inventory that have implications for the Land Use Plan. Stafffrom PlaceWorks and Provost & Pritchard that would lead the effort for Shafter have a high level of expertise managing Housing Element updates. Should the need arise, placeWorks could, as it has been asked in the past, supplementthe City's current efforts on its Housing Element update to secure certification. At a minimum, we anticipate looking beyond Housing Element,s eight-year planning horizon to evaluate and plan for residential demand and patterns over the next 20 years through updates to the Land Use Element and other parts ofthe General plan.

@ nr-ncrwsnKs
Task 6.1.9 Public Services & Facilities
The backbone public infrastructure and services are a large part of what contributes to Shafter,s high quality of life and ability to grow and attract economic development. provost & pritchard was added to the team to bring an engineering level of expertise to evaluate better the potential cost and phasing implications of various land use and growth alternatives.
Provost & Pritchard willlead the review of the City's current master plans and other infrastructurerelated planning and capital improvement programs and documents to yield insight for how, where, and when growth could occur throughout the entire Shafter Planning Area. Together, Placeworks and Provost & Pritchard can also provide high-level estimates in terms of cost and financing mechanisms suitable for the City and private development community in the central core and master planned growth areas.
lmportantly, the Public Services and Facilities Element will provide goals and policies relevant to the conservation of ground water and the adequacy of both water supply and water infrastructure to support planned growth and development. ln addition, the PlaceWorks team will explore sustainable approaches to stormwater management with City staff and stakeholders to identifiT suitable policies.
Task 6.1.10 | mplementation Actions
PlaceWorks will prepare implementation actions for that focuses City efforts and resources over the nextthree to five years regarding new policies, land use changes, and economic development activities identified by the GPU. These sets of actions can either be included in their respective element or aggregated into an lmplementation Plan. Regardless, these actions will provide an institutional framework to annually revisit the GP, gauge its continuing relevance, recommit investments to the City's vision, and assist in future updates to the City's Strategic plan. We will collaborate internally, with City staff, and with other entities throughout the GpU process to identify ideas for the lmplementation Plan.
Based on our experience creating and implementing GPs and other plans with the public and private sectors, PlaceWorks can recommend implementing actions that are meaningful and effective. The implementation actions will be structured by element and include information to aid staff, decision makers, and other stakeholders in selecting and prioritizing future activity. Examples of information that could be provided for each implementation item include, but are not limited to relevant policies, responsible entity, magnitude of necessary resources, time frame for initiation and completion, and measure of successful completion.

Task 6.3 Hard Copy and Web-based Formats
User Focused. Placeworks will first collaborate with the City to identify the best Gp format, structure, and content for City staff and the community. A diverse set of users is anticipated for the GPU, including City decision makers and staff, other agencies, residents, large- and small-scale property owners, businesses, community stakeholders, and nonprofit organizations. placeWorks will conduct a meeting with City staffto discuss a user-focused design approach to define the Gp format as well as content that not only complies with the law but provides content and information that people will use in an interface that facilitates quick and easy access.
Hard Copy Format. A streamlined and simplified hard copy is useful for legal filing and for reference by those who still prefer a hard copy to print or read. Placeworks will prepare a fraro copy format that is functional, streamlined, and easily maintained, while still being graphically dynamic through the inclusion of vibrant photographs, illustrations, graphics, and maps.
Web-Based Format. A web-based format presents opportunities to transition a general plan from a static document to an interactive tool used by a broad range of users. With the content designed for a modern web page, users can view text narratives, graphics, zoomable and interactive maps, and other content, while linking to other internal or external web pages and documents.
Additionally, all of this content, including maps, are designed and scaled to dynamically fit any electronic device - from desktop to tablet to phone. Examples of web-based formats prepared by PlaceWorks are listed below. The list only includes examples that were led by Colin Drukker. > The Ontario Plan (https://www.ontarioca,eovlontarioptan) Originally developed by Placeworks in 2010 as the first web-based general plan in California; Placeworks updated the subsequent update in2022 and assisted the City in migrating the update into the City's existing website to simplify maintenance and implementation. As part of the2022 update, PlaceWorks also introduced web-based maps, while retaining pDF copies as the legal reference documents.
> Clovis Gengral Pldn (https://citvofclovis.com/olannins-and-development/plannins/master-plans/seneral-p1../; PlaceWorks updated the City's General Plan in 201,4 and helped transition the City from a conventional hard copy format to a streamlined web-based format suitable for the City,s existing website. Since adoption, the City has undergone two website template updates, and the General Plan was easily carried through both new templates. > San Bernardino Countywide Plan (https://countvwideptan.com/) PlaceWorks updated the County's' General Plan in 2020 with a comprehensive Countywide Plan that included a Policy Plan, Business Plan, and series of Community Action Guides. All of this content was unified into a web-based format that incorporated the first truly searchable comprehensive plan in the nation.
other examples where PlaceWorks updated a general plan and is preparing a web-based format include: the City of Santa Ana (adopted 2022, to launch later this month, includes a simplified search tool), the City of Fountain Valley (adopted 2023, web-based format to Iaunch in ZO24), and the City of Dana Point (update starled in 2023, web-based format anticipated in 2025).
PlaceWorks will coordinate with the City to identify the best approach for integrating the General Plan content into a web-based format that can be easily populated into and maintained through City's current website content management system. PlaceWorks has experience working both Proposal: City of Shafter General plan Update and EIR December 4, 2023 | page22
@ rlxcrwonKs
indirectly and directly in jurisdictions'content management systems to ensure that preparing a web-based format requires little effort from City staff.
Deliverable(s):
> Hard-copy and web-based GP formats
Task 5.4 Development Regulations and Zoning Map Updates Provost & Pritchard will update language in the Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Ordinance and PlaceWorks will update the Zoning Map for consistency with the adopted General Plan. Updates to the language and map will be focused on changes necessary for consistency with the updated General Plan, including implementation of those Zoning Ordinance updates identified in the City's Housing Element. The updates to the Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Ordinance will be included as action items in the lmplementation Plan for the General Plan.
Deliverable(s):
> Admin draft, draft, and final updates to development regulations and zoning maps Task 5.5 Adoption Hearings
PlaceWorks will participate in public hearings with the Planning Commission and City Council to adoptthe General Plan updates and certifythe ElR.The PlaceWorksteam willattend the hearings and be available for presentations and responding to comments/questions. PlaceWorks will also draft a presentation for review and refinement by City staff.
Deliverable(s):

TASK 7. PROGRAM ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
The consideration of the environmental clearance-both for the GPU and post-adoption-will occurthroughout all ofthe tasks outlined in this scope ofwork. As a firm that prepares both general plans and associated ElRs concurrently and works with the public and private sectors in implementing general plans and tiering off of general plan ElRs, PlaceWorks will bring its unique insight to prepare a GPU EIR that is legally defensible and streamlines future development projects that align with the City's overall vision, guiding principles, and updated general plan. All deliverables are stated within each task.
Task 7.1CEQA lnitiation Meeting
Mark Teague, AICP (CEOA Principal-ln-Charge) and Malia Durand (CEaA Project Manager) wlll attend one virtual project initiation meeting to discuss the proposed project and confirm the project approach, scope, goals, objectives, communication protocol, and schedule with the project team. At this meeting we will also provide our strategy to maximize future project streamlining from the General Plan Program Environmental lmpact Report (PEIR). After this meeting, PlaceWorks will prepare a detailed CEQA schedule and create a detailed data needs list.
Task 7.2 Project Description
The project description will include text detailing the project characteristics, land use summary tables, statistical tables, and figures comparing existing conditions (on the ground) to the proposed GPU and associated development regulation changes. We assume the project description will be Proposal: City of Shafter General Plan Update and EIR December 4,2023 | Page 23
@ rlacrwofiKs
revised based on one consolidated set of comments from the City. Our scope of work assumes coordination with our in-house planning team to ensure that the Project Description includes Existing and Proposed Project population, residential units, non-residential square feet, and employment for use in the PEIR and technical studies, including traffic.
Task 7.3 Notice of Preparation, scoping Meeting, and Tribal consultation As the General Plan PEIR is a comprehensive document, we do not anticipate'scoping out'topics as pa rt of the notice of prepa ration (NO P). lf one or more of the individua I impact statements u nder a specific topic do not apply to the City, we can either discuss that in the relevant pElR section or include the impacts statement(s) in an "impacts found not to be significant" chapter of the pElR.
Regardless of format, allthe CEQA topics will be addressed to help in future tiering efforts.
As the need for a PEIR has already been determined, PlaceWorks will prepare the NOp as soon as the project description has been approved. The condensed version of the Nop will describe the proposed project, include maps of the planning area, and a list of environmental topics that vuill be discussed in the PEIR. The NOP will also specify the public review period and contact person at the City along with their address for submitting responses; and provide the time/date for the scoping meeting. PlaceWorks' scope assumes the City will publish the NOP in the local newspaper and arrange for a location for the scoping meeting. PlaceWorks will coordinate with the City to develop a distribution list and will distribute the NOP to the State Clearinghouse (SCH), applicable State and local agencies, and other interested parties on the City's distribution list for a 30-day public review period.
Tribal Consultation
The GPU triggers two levels of tribal consultation. The first is SB-18 that is linked to consideration of the general plan. The second is AB-52 that is linked to public circulation of the pElR. placeworks will coordinate with the City and the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) to determine which tribes have submitted general requests in writing to consult under AB 52 and SB 1g. AB 52 and SB 18 requires that each group that has submitted general consultation requests must be contacted by letter to provide them with information about the project and ask if they wish to consult with the agency for the project being proposed.
PlaceWorks will draft the template consultation letters on behalf of the City and submit them to City staff for review and use. Placeworks will coordinate with the City to print the final letters on agency lelterhead and send them to the tribes. PlaceWorks can assist with the consultation, however the expectation is that the City will want to take the lead with the tribes.
Public Scoping Meeting
PlaceWorks will assist the City with organizing and conducting one public scoping meeting to present the major features of the GPU and solicit comments about the scope and content of the PEIR. We will be prepared to discuss the environmental review process and to answer questions, as desired by City staff. We have had better attendance at virtual scoping meetings than in-person, however this scope allows for either.
7.4 Screen Check Draft PEIR
PlaceWorks' approach to environmental analyses is informed by our extensive experience providing cities with general plan PEIRs that ultimately serve as the cornerstone for environmental compliance and streamlining for their jurisdiction. Our strategy centers on data-driven Proposal: City of Shafter General Plan Update and EIR December 4,2023 | Page24
@P{-ACf;WORK5
methodology and well-crafted mitigation by subject matters experts to ensure the legal defensibility of the PEIR. Our goal for the City's GPU PEIR is to create a "living document" that can be used for future tiering and streamlining of development projects. We also ensure that the agency is fully apprised of the assumptions that go into the analysis so that later projects can be evaluated through Section 15183 to the maximum extent possible.
The PEIR analyses will thoroughly address current regulatory framework, document existing conditions, and design mitigation to provide a solid foundation forfuture streamlining and will be prepared with the following sections, in accordance with the CEeA Guidelines:
> Executive Summary
> lntroduction
> Project Description
> Environmental Setting
> Discussion of Existing Conditions, Environmental lmpacts, and Mitigation Measures > Consideration of Significant Effects
> Project Alternatives
) Other CEQA-Mandated Sections
> Organizations and Personals Consulted
Each topical section of the document will: (a) describe existing environmental conditions and pertinent regulatory policies and programs that apply to this project, (b) define the criteria by which impacts will be determined to be significant, (c) determine the environmental changes that would result from im plementation of the G P U, (d) eva luate the sign ificance of those changes with respect to the impact significance thresholds, (e) determine whether CEQA mitigation measures are required after the application of relevant General Plan policies and regulatory requirements, (f) recommend mitigation measures as necessary to reduce or eliminate potentially significant adverse impacts, and (g) provide a conclusion as to whether significant impacts would remain even after successful implementation of recommended mitigation measures. This task assumes that PlaceWorks will respond to one round of consolidated City review comments. ' Aesthetics. The aesthetics analysis will address the proposed project's potential effect on scenic vistas, visual and community character and quality; consistency with regulations and/or policies governing scenic quality; and lightin g/glare.
Agriculture and Forestry Resources. The City is surrounded by Prime, Unique Farmland, and farmland of Statewide importance according to the mapping provided by the Department of Conservation. As any development is likely to result in the conversion of prime agricultural land to non-agricultural uses, the PEIR will need to evaluate the impact and discuss mitigation potential.
Air Quality. Placeworks will conduct a robust air quality analysis using current methodology of the Sanjoaquin Valley Air Quality Management District (SJVAQMD). (See Task 8.1) The results of the technical modeling will be compiled into the PEIR. Model outputs will be included as an appendix.
Biological Resources. Provost & Pritchard will prepare a desktop biological assessment with results integrated into the Biological Resources section of the pElR.
Proposal: City of Shafter General Plan Update and EIR December 4, 2023 | Page 25
@ rlacev/*RKg
Cultural Resources. Cultural resources include historical, archaeological, and tribal cultural resources. (See Task 8.2) Provost & Pritchard will prepare a desktop cultural resources record search to assess the potential cultural resource impacts of the GpU.
Energy. PlaceWorks will identify the existing and forecast electricity and natural gas use in the city. We will also provide an overview and review of consistency of the General plan policies with the California Renewables Portfolio Standard Program (RPS) and other energy-related regulations.
Geology and soils. This PEIR section will define the city's existing geologic, soil, and groundwater characteristics and regional seismic influences. lmpacts of the GpU will be analyzed based on the proposed land use plan. Mitigation measures known to be effective in addressing various geotechnical constraints and potential impacts to paleontological resources will be defined, if necessary.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions. PlaceWorks will conduct emissions forecasts for the GpU. The emissions forecast will be based on historical information compiled for the existing conditions and forecast based on the increase in population and employment in the Cityfrom the GpU.
The increase in vehicle miles traveled (VMT) will be based on the data provided by the traffic engineer.
Hazards and Hazardous Materials. This section of the PEIR will describe known hazards in the planning area, and if necessary, will identify mitigation measures as required to avoid significant environmental impacts. The chapter will rely on a database search for the city from the California Department of Toxic Control (DTSC) also known as the Cortese List.
Hydrology and Water Quality. The hydrology and water quality section of the EtR will detail existing conditions that will include the regulatory setting, water quality and groundwater issues, the City's existing storm drain system and any capacity issues, FEMA maps and flooding potential, and the City of Shafter's local regulations, municipal code, and stormwater development standards for new development and redevelopment projects. PlaceWorks will coordinate this effort with the City's public Works Department.
The hydrology and water quality section of the EIR will include the regulatory framework, regional and hydrological setting of the area, stormwater drainage characteristics, water quality data (both surface and groundwater), local receiving water bodies, pollutants of concern based on changes in land use, and flooding hazards. Pertinent local plans, laws, and regulations pertaining to hydrology and water quality will be identified, including the requirements of the area-wide municipal stormwater urban runoff permit issued by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board-Central Valley (Order No. R5-2016-0040, NPDES Permit No. CAS0085324).
The analysis will also include issues pertaining to stormwater and flooding, creek protection, and FEMA floodplains. The EIR section will conclude with a discussion of the potentialwater impacts attributable to the proposed buildout pursuant to the General plan, based on applicable significance criteria. The analysis will be prepared under the direction of a Civil Engineer licensed in the State of California.

@P!-ACEltrCRKs
Land Use and Planning. This section of the PEIR will evaluate the potential impacts related to land use from implementation of the GPU. This section will also review the consistency and compatibility of the proposed GPU with applicable regional plans and local plans.
MineralResources. As noted in the current General Plan the City has oiland naturalgas resources within the planning area. Any changes to existing policy or approach in the updated general plan will be evaluated in the PEIR.
Noise. A noise study will be prepared by PlaceWorks (See Task 8.3). Findings from the study will be integrated into this PEIR section, and mitigation measures, if necessary, will be incorporated to reduce potentially significant noise impacts. The noise study will be based on the traffic impact analysis and will also be used to inform the Noise Element of the General Plan.
Population and Housing. This section will identify the potential changes to population, housing units, employment forecast, and the City's jobs-housing ratio resulting from the proposed GPU. This section will describe existing and proposed land uses and how they would aftect population, housing, and employment compared to existing conditions. lncreases in population, housing, and employment will also be compared to regional projections.
Public Services. The PEIR will assess impacts to public services providing fire protection and emergency services, police protection, school services, and library services assoclated with the proposed GPU. The City's fire and police service providers, school districts, and libraries will be contacted at the onset for input on existing staffing and capacities and long-term plans to demonstrate their ability to serve buildout of the proposed GpU.
Recreation. The PEIR will discuss existing recreationalfacilities and the demand that the proposed GPU would have on them. Demand for parkland and recreation facilities associated with the potentialpopulation growth willbe estimated. Proposed parks, trails, and anyother private or public recreational uses in the GPU will be identified, and consistency with applicable parks, trails, or other recreation plans or programs will be assessed. Satisfaction of parkland dedication requirements willalso be discussed.
Transportation. Using the traffic study by Fehr & Peers the PEIR will summarize the study findings and include a consistency analysis related to programs, plans, ordinances, or policies addressing the circulation system, including transit, roadway, bicycle, and pedestrian facilities. This PEIR section willalso analyze the GPU's consistencywith CEeA Guidelines Section L5064.3, subdivision (b), including vehicle miles traveled (VMT). This section will analyze impacts related to hazardous designs, incompatible uses, and emergency access.
TribalCulturalResources. The results of the tribal consultation will be summarized in the pElR along with any mitigation measures or policy considerations. Note that any reported resources will be kept confidentialand not included in the PEIR. Record results will be given to the City however the confidentiality of the sites is required by state law. t
Proposal: City of Shafter General Plan Update and EIR December 4,2023 | Page27
@ nmcrwonKs
Utilities and Service Systems. The utility and service systems section would detail the existing conditions and potential capacity constraints for the water supply system, wastewater/sewer system, and storm drain system. The utilities and service systems section of the EIR will provide the regulatory setting and impacts associated with water supply and demand, wastewater infrastructure, stormwater drainage, and solid waste disposal. ln addition, the impacts associated with electricity, natural gas, and communications systems will be included. lnformation will be incorporated from the latest (2020) Urban water Management Plan (UWMP), Water Master Plans, lnfrastructure Master Plans, Sewer System Management Plans, Storm Drainage Facility Guidelines, and CalRecycle's Solid Waste lnformation System as a pplicable.
The utilities section will include existing conditions for water, wastewater, storm drainage, and solid waste and will include water and wastewater demands for the proposed project as compared to existing supplies and sewer/wastewater treatment capacities. Best Management Practices (BMps) and Low lmpact Development (LlD) measures will be considered in determining the potential for additional stormwater with the proposed project. ln addition, the capacity of landfills to accept solid waste and the State and local solid waste diversion programs will be considered in determining potential solid waste impacts.
Wildfire. The Septemb er 29,2023, Fire Hazard Severity Zone maps do not show the City as being within any of the state responsibility areas. However, the city surrounded by agriculturalfields and wildfire is always a possibility and will be evaluated in the pElR.
Alternatives. ln compliance with Sectio n 15126.6 of the CEeA Guidelines, the pEtR will evaluate a reasonable range of alternatives. Alternatives will be selected based on their abilityto: (1) avoid or reduce one or more of the project's significant impacts;and (2)feasibly attain most of the basic objectives of the project. Our team's expertise in design and planning provides a unique opportunity to create alternatives that address potential environmental issues, including air quality/greenhouse gas emissions, aesthetics, cultural resources, land use compatibility, transportation, and noise. PlaceWorks will coordinate with the City and project team members to craft meaningful alternatives with the potential to reduce or eliminate significant impacts (if any). Up to three alternatives will be evaluated for their potential to reduce significant impacts identified in PEIR. The Alternatives section will identify the "environmentally superior alternative," in accordance with the CEeA Guidelines and will evaluate the relative potentialfor each of the alternatives to achieve the project's objectives.
Provost & Pritchard will provide a summary of water demand calculations for use in the analysis of one EIR alternative. Water demand assumptions will be documented in a memo for use by PlaceWorks and shall be based on assumptions provided or confirmed by City of Shafter staff. lt is assumed that no modeling efforts will be required to determine planning level demand estimates.
7.5 Public Draft PEIR
PlaceWorks will revise the screen check Draft PEIR to address all City comments. placeWorks will then prepare a "print ready" Draft PEIR and distribute itelectronicallyto the Cityforfinalapproval.
Proposal: City of Shafter General Plan Update and EtR December 4, 2023 | Paee 28
@ ru,acnwonKs
Upon final City approval of the print-check Draft PEIR, Placeworks will prepare the Draft pEtR for public review. This will include final formatting, editing final eA/eC, and printing.
Placeworks will prepare the Notice of Completion (NOC) and Notice of Availability (NoA) for city approval and signature. PlaceWorks will distribute the NoC and NoA to the State Clearinghouse, Kern County Clerk, and parties on the City's distribution list (provided by the City) for a 45-day public review period. This scope of work does not include development or placement of notices in newspapers.
7.6 Final PEIR
Atthe conclusion of the Public Draft PEIR public review period, placeworks will prepare a screen check Final PEIR containing any revisions to the PEIR and the compiled responses to comments.
The Final Program PEIR will contain an introduction describing the public review process for the PEIR, copies of all comment letters, and written responses to all comments. The estimated budget assumes that no new technical studies or extensive research will be required to respond to comments, and that the comments will be directed at the substance and technical adequacy of the PEIR. Modification to the scope of work, budget, and timeline frame rnay be necessary if any comments from agencies or the public require substantially increasing the scope of impacts and issues addressed in the pElR.
The screen check Final PEIR will also include any revisions, updates, or corrections needed to respond to comments or address minor errors in the Draft PEIR. Revisions will be made in underline and/or strike-out text. This document will be submitted to the City staff for review. placeworks will edit the screen check Final PEIR based on comments provided by the City. Our scope is limited to two rounds of City review of the screen check Final PEIR. lt is assumed that City comments on the screen check Final PEIR will be consolidated into one document.
Upon approval by the City, the Final PEIR will be prepared. This will include final formatting, editing, and QA/QC. Responses to comments from responsible agencies will be distributed a minimum of 10 days prior to consideration of the Final pErR by the city council.
7.7 Certification Docu ments
Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting program
Placeworks will prepare the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting program (MMRp) pursuant to Section 21081'.6 of the Public Resources Code. lt will identify the significant impacts that would result from the proposed GPU, proposed mitigation measures for each impact, the times at which the measures will need to be conducted, the entity responsible for implementing the mitigation measure, and the City department or other agency responsible for monitoring the mitigation effort and ensuring its success.
Statement of Overriding Considerations/Findings of Fact Placeworks will prepare findings and facts in support of findings, describing each of the significant impacts identified bythe PEIR and the determination of whetherthose impactswould be reduced to below a level of significance by proposed mitigation measures. Additionally, Section 15093 requires that when an agency approves a project that will have significant adverse environmental effects that are unavoidable, it must make a statement of its views on the ultimate balancing of the merits of approving the project despite the environmental consequences. placeWorks will Proposal: City of Shafter General plan Update and EtR December 4, 2023 | Page 29
@ rlac[1,#t}!qi{s
coordinate with the city to draft the statement of overriding considerations, if necessary, for any unavoidable significant impacts that may be identified by the Final pEtR.
Notice of Determination
lf the project is approved bythe lead agency, a notice of determination (NoD) will be filed within five working days. Placeworks will be responsible for filing the NoD with the Kern County Clerk as well as the State Clearinghouse. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) mitigation fee and county filing fees are included in this proposal. we assume the City will post the NoD on the City's website in accordance with AB g17.
7.8 CEQA Project Management and Coordination
Communication is key to a project's success. Therefore, placeWorks will be in regular communication with our internal planning team and City staffand participate in progress updates (virtual) related to project approach, scheduling, and other environmental issues throughout the CEQA process. This task includes time for our CEQA principal (Mark Teague) and pro;ecimanager (Malia Durand) through the duration of the project to closely coordinate with both in-house project tea ms (pla nning a nd environ mental), a nd ou r environ menta I su bconsu ltants. Th is task a lso includes processing invoices, reviewing, and managing deliverables, ensuring quality control, and adherence to the schedule for environmental processing.
Placeworks' PIC and PM will attend 1 kick-off meeting with City staff. placeworks, ptC will attend meetings on an as needed basis and PlaceWorks' PM will attend twice-monthly checkin/coordination meetings with City staffwith a mix of in-person meetings and conference calls; 2 Planning commission meetings/workshops; and 2 City council meetings.
TASK 8 CEQA TECHNICAL STUDIES
Like the Draft PEIR, Placeworks'approach to technical studies focuses on quantitative data and well substantiated documentation to support legally defensible impact conclusions. Based on Placeworks' prior experience preparing general plan PElRs, the technical studies discussed below will provide the City with the data and information required for environmental tiering, thereby reducing redundant costs associated with CEQA in the long-term. All deliverables, unless otherwise stated, involve an admin draft, draft, and final copy of the technical study associated with each ta sk.
8.1Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Emissions (placeWorks) PlaceWorks will prepare an air quality and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions analysis for the GpU and PEIR. The analysis will be based on the current methodology of the San Joaquin valley Air Pollution Control District (SJVAPCD) for projects in the San Joaquin Valley Air Basin (SJVAB).
Placeworks will prepare a communitywide criteria air pollutant and GHG emissions inventory and forecast for the GPU. The results of the technical modeling will be compiled into the ElR. Model outputs will be included as an appendix.
AQ and GHG Emissions lnventory
For the ElR, we will prepare a current year inventory (CEQA Baseline). The inventory will be consistent with lcLEl's U.s. Community Protocol for Accounting and Reporting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions (20121for the following sectors.
Proposal: City of Shafter General plan Update and EtR December 4, 2023 | page 30

a
@ P{-ACE\i1CRKS
Energy - Electricity and Natural Gas. Buildings in the City consume electricity and natural gas Activity data provided by Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) will be used to compile the criteria air pollutant and GHG emissions inventory. Carbon intensity of electricity will be based on PG&E's Sustainability Report.
On-Road Transportation. Buildout of the Land Use Plan would generate criteria air pollutant and GHG emissions from an anticipated increase in trips and vehicle miles traveled (VMT) by passenger vehicles and trucks. VMT will be modeled using the California Air Resources Board's (CARB) latest emissions factor model (EMFAC) based on VMT data provided by Fehr and Peers.
r Water Use/Wastewater Generation. Electricity is used to transporl and treat water for indoor and outdoor purposes. Additionally, treatment of wastewater generates fugitive GHG emissions. PlaceWorks will utilize information from the City's Urban Water Management plan and other relevant sources to evaluate GHG emissions from this sector. o Solid waste Disposal. Disposal of municipal solid waste generate indirect GHG emissions from decomposition of organic materials. This sectorwill be based on data available from CalRecycle for shafter and modeled using CARB's latest landfill gas model. o other Applicable Sources (off-Road, Point Sources). Use of off-road equipment, such as those used during construction activities and industrial warehouses, in the City also generates criteriaairpollutantandGHGemission. Emissionsfromtheuseofgasoline,diesel,andother fuels bythese pieces of equipmentwillbe included in the inventory. while industrialsources in the Citygenerate emissions, these stationary sources are permitted sources of emissions and not under the direct or indirect control of the City. lf information is available for permitted sources from SJVAPCD, these sources will be identified within the inventory separately. Potential regional localized air quality impacts from construction activities associated with implementation of the GpU will be described qualitatively.
AQ and GHG Emissions Forecast
Once the General Plan horizon year land use statistics are compiled, placeWorks will conduct emissions forecasts for the GPU. The emissions forecast will be based on historic information compiled for the existing conditions and forecasted based on the increase in population and employment in the City as a result of implementation of the GpU. The increase in VMT will be based on the data provided by Fehr & Peers. For the General Plan horizon year air quality and GHG forecast, PlaceWorks will consider existing regulations that reduce criteria air pollutant and GHG emissions.
AQ" Energy, and GHG EIR Sections
Regional emissions will be compared to the applicable thresholds. potential localized air quality impacts from construction activities associated with implementation of the GpU will be described q ua litatively.
The SJVAB is designated nonattainment under California and/or National ambient air quality standards (AAOS) for ozone (o:) and particulate matter (PMro and pMz.s). consistency of the project's regional emissions will be evaluated against SJVApCD,s Air euality Management plans to attain the long-term National and California AAeS. The SJVAB has been designated in attainment for carbon monoxide (CO) and particulate matter (PMro) under the California and/or National Proposal: City of Shafter General plan Update and EIR December 4, 2023 | page 3L
@ rlacawcnKs
AAQS. Therefore, the air quality analysis will include only a qualitative assessment of Co hotspots. ln addition, the EIR will include a qualitative assessment of potential odor generators to describe potential odor impacts,
For the Energy analysis, Placeworks will identify the existing and forecasted electricity and natural gas use in the City. We will also provide an overview and review of consistency of the General plan policies with the California Renewables Portfolio Standard Program (RpS) and other energy-related regulations.
For GHG analysis, the EIR will include a discussion of the GHG reduction targets of Assembly Bill32 (AB 32), Senate Bill 32 (SB 32), SB 375, and Executive Order 5-03-05. The GHG impact analysis will identify GHG emissions from the buildout of the GPU. To date, there is no comprehensive statewide plan that identifies GHG reduction programs past 2020. However, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) recently released the 2022 Scoping Plon IJpdate which lays out a path to achieve targets forcarbon neutrality and reduce GHG emissions by 85 percent below 1990levels no later than 2045. The GHG section in the EIR will discuss the City's commitment to reducing GHG emissions in accordance with the GHG reduction goals of AB 32, SB 32, SB 375, and Executive Order 5-03-05. Project consistency with the Kern County RegionalTransportation plan (RTp) will also be reviewed.
8.2. Biological and Cultural Resources (provost & pritchard) Provost & Pritchard willconduct a California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) records search to identify documented biological resources. Provost & Pritchard will also conduct a Californla Historical Resources lnformation System (CHRIS) records search for historical and cultural resources as well as search the National, California, and local historic resource registers to identify known historic resources and conduct a Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) Sacred Lands File records search for cultural resources. Provost & Pritchard will document the results in a memorandum for use by PlaceWorks to prepare the applicable impact analysis sections of the Environmental lmpact Report (ElR). This task does not include field visits or responses to comments. Any required noticing under AB 52 or SB 18 will be conducted by placeWorks staff.
8.3 Noise and Vibration Analysis (placeWorks)
PlaceWorks will prepare the noise and vibration technical analyses to support the focused GpU.
The PEIR will discuss relevant standards and criteria for noise exposure, including those in the City,s General Plan Noise Element and Municipal Code. The noise analysis will include a field study. The results of this analysis will be summarized in the PEIR, and modeling will be provided in an appendix.
Existing Condltions. PlaceWorks will identify major sources of noise in the City and document existing noise levels. The primary source of noise in the City is traffic on major arterials and highways and the rail line through the City.
Transportation Noise: PlaceWorks will model existing and Plan buildout traffic noise levels using a version of the U.S. Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Traffic Noise prediction Model. The PEIR will identify areas along roadway segments that would be exposed to noise levels above established criteria. Existing and future noise from rail operations will be characterized using the FederalTransitAdministration (FTA) and the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) noise models and available freight operational data.
Proposal : City of Shafter Genera I Plan U pdate and El R December 4, 2023 | Page 32
@ rr-ncrwofiKs
Stationary Noise: Noise impacts from non-transportation sources will be evaluated on a programmatic level, qualitatively based on local noise standards. placeWorks will analyze noise impacts from non-transportation sources such as major commercial and industrial uses in terms of potential impacts to nearby noise-sensitive receptors and the noise limitations identified within the City's Municipal Code.
construction Noise and Vibration; Placeworks will provide a qualitative analysis for potential construction impacts associated with buildout of the Plan. Future noise and vibration effects from construction activities will be discussed in terms of accepted standards from the FTA and the City,s Municipal Code. Feasible mitigation measures will be identified to minimize noise and vibration impacts associated with buildout of the plan.
8.4 Transportation (Fehr & peers)
Fehr & Peers will review the proposed land use plan and the current Kern CoG Travel Demand Model. Fehr & Peers will also review the 2046 RTP/SCS Mtp 3.0 model and modify roadway networks and land use information (number of jobs, household, population, etc.) fortransportation analysis zones (TAZ) in the city of Shafter to ensure consistency with General plan assumptions.
Fehr & Peers will prepare two full model runs for the base year (existing scenario) and cumulative year (General Plan preferred horizon scenario). Additional scenarios and full model runs can be undertaken if required with an additional budget.
Fehr & Peers will incorporate the roadway network developed in Task 5 into the KerncoG Travel Demand Model in order to understand network sizing needs. The model output results will be used for evaluating Los under cumulative conditions. After the model is completed and appropriately estimates travel on major streets, we will utilize it to estimate traffic volumes on key roadways in the city, as well as develop vMT estimates for use in the cEeA document.
Fehr & Peers will evaluate up to two alternative scenarios, and will provide quantitative comparisons for VMT measures, qualitative analysis for LoS measures, and the required hazards and safety analysis. Additional details are provided below.
Level of Service Assessment. Post-processing travel model volume and LoS assessment - Fehr & Peers will process the outputs of travel demand volumes using available count data in order to develop final forecasts for l-5 segments and 10 intersections. This information will be used to estimate Los during typical weekday AM and PM peak periods for each of the segments and intersections usingthe latest methodologyfrom the Highway Capacity Manual, summarized in both tabular and graphical format. The LOS assessment will cover the following scenarios:
r Existing Conditions - using the collected traffic count data. r Future Year No Project Conditions -volume forecasts using the land use and roadway network assumptions that are already included in the Kern COG 2024 RTP/SCS travel demand model and generally reflect the existing General plan of the City. ' Future Year With Project Conditions - volume forecasts using the proposed land use and proposed roadway network for the preferred General plan scenario.
VMT Assessment. Fehr & Peers will work with the project team and City staff to identifu the appropriate methodology and threshold for evaluating VMT impacts for the General plan. This scope assumes that VMT will be estimated in the following three ways:
Proposal: City of Shafter General plan Update and EIR December 4, 2023 | page 33
@ rlacrv/cnxs
. Regional Targets Advisory Committee (RTAC) Method - This method estimates VMT by using 100% VMT accounting for trips that begin and end in the City, 50% VMT accounting for trips with only one trip ending within the City, and 0% VMT accounting for trips that pass through the City.
This methodology was established to provide the information needed to assess the performance of plans in achieving the GHG targets set under 58375.
o Full Accounting Origin-Destination (OD) Method - This method estimates VMT using 100% accounting for all trips that have both or one trip end within the City. This is typical accounting for project-level assessments and will provide useful information for the City if they desire to include a VMT-related policy or use the information for revising the City's adopted VMT threshold for identifying significant project impacts from future development. r Boundary Method Accounting - This method applies a boundary (typically the city Iimits and/or city limits plus the sphere of influence) and includes all VMT within the identified boundary, regardless of the trip origin/destination. This method provides a useful comparison of VMT; especially if the project displaces traffic to longer routes due to anticipated congestion along the route.
The VMT estimates will be provided for the three analysis scenarios in tabular format.
Emergency Evacuation Assessment. Two recent bills have been passed by the state legislator that affecttheSafetyElementoftheGeneral Plan:SB99and A8747. SBggrequiresparcelswithonly one point of access to be identified within the Safety Element or Hazard Mitigation plan, and AB 747 requires the evaluation of the transportation network and its adequacy/viability to accommodate an evacuation under a range of evacuation scenarios.
The SB 99 assessment is completed using GIS and Fehr & Peers has developed an additional layer tothetypicalSB99assessmentwecall RESILIENCY+thatalso looksatthedistanceneighborhoods need to travel to access evacuation centers andlor exit the City. This can be overlaid with other hazard data (high fire severity zones, flood maps, fault zones, etc.) to identify potential neighborhoods that have limited redundancyfrom an accessibility perspective. This could provide useful information for plan. This analysis will be coordinated with the Safety Element analyses (for SB 99) conducted by PlaceWorks.
AB 747 can be completed in a variety of different ways. These include review of a limited amount of evacuation events (say two fire evacuation event scenarios) where the number of evacuation trips are estimated based on household size, employment information, and the number of autos owned per household, and we utilize planning level segment capacity to estimate the amount of time required to facilitate that assessment. We have also completed an internal tool, EVAC+, that estimates origins/destinations of the evacuation trips in 15-minute increments and simulates those trips onto the roadway network that can account for vehicle rerouting (when parallel routes are less congested) but also account for how congestion builds over space and time. This is all incorporated into a dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) modelto better inform how much time would be required to evacuate under the specified evacuation event.
For purposes of scoping, Fehr & Peers has assumed that only the GIS assessment identifiTing parcels with only one point of access will be completed and we have assumed that the Ag 747 assessment will include two evacuation scenarios and will be completed at a higher planning-level scale using estimated hourly capacities (e.9., we will not be applying RESILIENCY+ nor EVAC+ for this assessment). This scope also assumes that we will attend one meeting with emergency services Proposal: City of Shafter General Plan Update and EtR December4, 2023 | Page34
@ nr-ncrw*RKs
personnel to assist in refining emergency evacuation routes and to define the emergency evacuation scenarios.
EIR Support and Meeting Attendance. Fehr & Peers has budgeted a total of 40 hours to supporr the project team in writing the transportation section of the General plan and General plan ElR.
We envision that our work will provide final quality assurance and quality control (OA/aC) of each section written by PlaceWorks, that Fehr & Peers will answer any questions from placeWorks as they write these sections and/or respond to comments on each section.
Response to Comments. At this stage, it is unknown how many comments will be received on the Draft ElR. Fehr & Peers will assist the City by preparing written responses to transportation-related comments on the Draft ElR. Up to 10 hours of staff time has been budgeted for this task. No new technicalanalysisisassumedaspartofthistask. Shouldagreaterlevelofeffoftberequired,Fehr & Peers will inform the client and submit a revised scope and fee.
8.5 Water Supply Analysis (provost & pritchard)
Provost & Pritchard will provide a summary of water demand calculations for use in the analysis of the GPU PEIR alternative. Water demand assumptions will be documented in a memo for use by PlaceWorks and shall be based on assumptions provided or confirmed by City of Shafter staff. lt is assumed that no modeling efforts will be required to determine planning level demand estimates.
TASK 9 GIS
An accurate inventory of GIS maps and information is essential for any GpU. GIS is used not only for the production of maps, but for data analytics, and it will play a central role in developing the plan' The key is to maximize the value of accurate GIS data while minimizing the cost of obtaining and correcting information. PlaceWorks recommends a combination of City data augmented by external authoritative data sources.
GIS Data. PlaceWorks is an Esri Partner and has been certified by Esri with an ArcGlS Online Specialty designation, with an ability to quickly and cost-effectively integrate external authoritative data from a variety ofgovernment and nongovernment sources. The data can be displayed through interactive web-based maps (at little additional cost) as well as visually compelling hard copy maps-both options suitable for use by City staffand the public. The data will also be integrated into the City's GIS system suitable for internal use and, as appropriate and/or required, to online portals for public access. As part of this task, placeWorks will:
> Obtain relevant map information and GIS data from the City. > Supplement City GIS data with new or updated information from other authoritative sources.
> Assemble GIS data sources into GIS platforms.
> ldentify and resolve any outstanding data deficiencies and potential inaccuracies. ) Establish protocols regarding data quality control, documentation, transfel database schema, and formats for data and metadata.
> Prepare an accurate parcel-level base map that is transferable and viewable in electronic and physical formats.
> Deliver parcel-level base map as an interactive web map GIS Mapping. GIS maps will support all the major tasks in the GpU, starting with those prepared for the kick-off meetings. This task also includes additionalGls analysis necessary to understand the Proposal: City ofShafter General plan Update and EIR December 4, 2023 | Page 35
@ nr-*eri,vcnKs
needs and implications of potential policies and environmental analysis. placeWorks will develop a design template for digital files and hard copy reproduction to ensure a consistent image and quality. We will also prepare an accurate parcel-level map for use by other studies and reports prepared by other consultants. Based on our experience with general plans in similar cities, we have budgeted for the creation of approximately 75 maps/exhibits (including draft and final maps).
Depending on the complexity of data and functionality, between 20 and 30 maps will also be uploaded as interactive web-based layers.
TASK 10 PROJECT MANAGEMENT
This task accounts for the ongoing activities that are essential for keeping a project on schedule and within budget, such as communication and meetings with City staff, schedule and budget management, and internal coordination. Effective project management is especially important to meet the City's targeted deadline of January 2026.
10.1 Ongoing Project Management
PlaceWorks will serve as the primary consultant and point of contact, responsible for coordination with the City, other agencies, and consultants (subconsultants or other consultants hired by the City). Colin Drukker will serve as Principal-in-Charge (PlC), Halley Grundy will serve as the project Manager (PM), and Maria Ceja will serve as the Assistant Project Manager (ApM). Colin and Halley will also serve as points of contact for all communications with the City.
PlaceWorks will maintain a live schedule that is updated as needed and identifies the status of each task, critical paths, and key milestones for the duration of the project. placeWorks can provide the schedule in a format best suited to the need throughout the project, whether it be to communicate a simplified schedule to the public or to dive into day-to-day detail with City staff and other consultants. An overall status reporl of the project and budget will be provided monthly, concurrent with invoicing.
10.2 Coordination Meetings
PlaceWorks will participate in monthly meetings with City staff to coordinate work tasks and deliverable products among our team members and other consultants, review project progress, schedule future tasks, and discuss and identify solutions for any issues impacting the successful performance of the work program. For budgeting purposes, we assume one virtual meeting on average every other week over the course of the project schedule (frequency adjusted based on need and availability). PlaceWorks has also included time and budget for key staff members to attend conduct periodic conference calls on an as-needed basis throughout the project timeline.
