STAFF REPORT

CITY OF SOLANA BEACH
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Alyssa Muto, City Manager
MEETING DATE: March 25, 2026
ORIGINATING DEPT: Information Technology - Michael Manriquez, IT Director SUBJECT: City Council Consideration of Resolution 2026-029 Authorizing an Agreement with Cox Communications for
Unified Telecommunications Services
BACKGROUND:

Unified Communication (UC) systems represent the integration of voice, data, and collaboration tools into a centralized, cloud-based environment. Modern UC platforms provide scalable, resilient, and flexible communications that support mobile workforces, improve disaster recovery capabilities, and reduce reliance on aging on-premises infrastructure.

The City’s current telephone system operates on a legacy on-premises platform. Core system components—including call processing servers, voicemail systems, and associated hardware—are reaching or have reached end-of-life status. Continued reliance on this infrastructure presents increasing risks related to reliability, vendor support limitations, hardware replacement costs, and long-term sustainability.

To modernize the City’s telecommunications infrastructure, staff initiated a Request for Proposals (RFP) to procure a cloud-based Unified Telecommunications solution capable of consolidating voice services across multiple City facilities, including City Hall, Fire Station, Marine Safety, Public Works, La Colonia Community Center, and Fletcher Cove Community Center.

Following evaluation of proposals by the RFP review panel, a vendor was initially selected and approved by the City Council. However, during contract negotiations, that vendor declined to execute the City’s standard Public Services Agreement (PSA), objecting to core municipal contractual provisions related to indemnification, liability, and public agency protections. As a result, the agreement could not be finalized and the vendor withdrew.

To prevent a recurrence of that issue, the City’s Information Technology Department and City Attorney’s Office worked closely with Cox Communications—who was selected by the evaluation panel as the next highest-ranked responsive proposer—to ensure alignment on PSA terms prior to bringing the contract forward for Council consideration.

After extensive coordination between the City Attorney and Cox’s legal team, agreement has been reached on contract terms. This item is before the City Council to consider approval of a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an Agreement with Cox Communications for Unified Telecommunications Services.

DISCUSSION:

System Modernization and Operational Improvements
The City’s existing telephone system requires the Information Technology (IT) Department to manage multiple vendors for various telecommunications-related services, including:
• Voicemail systems
• Phone system maintenance and support
• Telephony carrier services
• Paging/broadcasting systems
• Call center functionality
This fragmented structure increases administrative oversight requirements and creates inefficiencies in vendor coordination, billing management, and technical troubleshooting.

Migrating to a consolidated, cloud-based Unified Communications platform provides increased scalability, resiliency, and operational flexibility. Cloud-based systems reduce dependency on on-site equipment, allow streamlined administration of extensions and direct-inward-dialing (DID) numbers, provide enhanced disaster recovery capabilities, and support remote and mobile workforce needs.

The proposed agreement with Cox Communications will consolidate voice services across City facilities into a single managed environment. The modernization will:

• Improve system reliability
• Provide enhanced remote and mobile access capabilities • Support operational continuity during outages
• Reduce hardware lifecycle replacement risks
• Improve disaster recovery posture
• Simplify vendor management and billing oversight
The Request for Proposals (RFP) for Unified Telecommunications Services was publicly advertised in accordance with City procurement policies and remained open for approximately four (4) weeks. The RFP was broadly distributed to qualified telecommunications providers to encourage competitive participation.

Multiple proposals were received and evaluated by a City review panel. Evaluation criteria included:
• Technical architecture and system functionality
• Vendor experience and demonstrated competence
• Implementation approach and support model
• Cost structure
• Ability to execute the City’s Public Services Agreement Following evaluation, vendors were ranked based on overall scoring. After the initially selected vendor withdrew due to inability to execute the City’s PSA, staff advanced negotiations with Cox Communications as the next highest-ranked responsive proposer.

In coordination with the City Attorney’s Office, contract terms were reviewed and negotiated to ensure compliance with municipal contracting standards prior to final recommendation.

Pursuant to Solana Beach Municipal Code (SBMC) Section 3.08.140, contracts for professional and specialized services may be awarded based on demonstrated competence, professional qualifications, and the ability to satisfactorily perform the required services at a fair and reasonable price, rather than solely on the basis of lowest cost. Due to the technical and specialized nature of telecommunications infrastructure and unified communications systems, staff evaluated proposals based on qualifications, technical approach, implementation capability, and cost.

The Request for Proposals (RFP) for Unified Telecommunications Services was publicly advertised for a total of four (4) weeks. Staff released the RFP and distributed it to multiple telecommunications providers that were identified as capable of delivering a comprehensive unified communications solution for the City.

Following review of proposals and evaluation of vendor qualifications, staff determined that Cox Communications provides the most responsive and responsible proposal that meets the City’s operational requirements while offering a competitive and reasonable cost structure. The proposed agreement with Cox Communications will modernize the City’s telecommunications platform by transitioning the existing on-premises phone system to a cloud-based Unified Communications solution. The system will support voice communications across multiple City facilities, including City Hall, the Fire Station, Marine Safety, Public Works, La Colonia Community Center, and Fletcher Cove Community Center.

Currently, the City relies on multiple vendors to support various telecommunications functions. These services include voicemail services, phone system maintenance and support, telephony carrier services, paging and broadcasting systems, and call center functionality. Maintaining separate vendors for these services requires additional administrative oversight, contract management, and technical coordination by the Information Technology Department.

By transitioning to a consolidated Unified Communications platform provided by Cox Communications, the City will streamline telecommunications services into a single managed environment. This modernization will improve system reliability, simplify vendor management, and enhance operational capabilities by supporting remote access, mobile connectivity, and improved disaster recovery functionality.

In addition to operational improvements, consolidation of telecommunications services is expected to reduce long-term operational costs. The City currently incurs approximately $67,000 in annual expenditures within the IT General Fund (1005450) for various telecommunications services and vendor support. Transitioning to a unified platform will allow the City to phase out several of these separate services, resulting in improved budget efficiency and better alignment of telecommunications spending under a single managed solution.

CEQA COMPLIANCE STATEMENT:

Not a project as defined by CEQA.

FISCAL IMPACT: The proposed agreement includes a one-time implementation and equipment cost of $24,671, along with a monthly recurring service cost of $1,880 for a 36-month term. Over the three-year contract term, the total cost of the agreement will be $92,351, inclusive of all equipment, installation, and recurring service charges.

Fiscal Year Total Yearly Cost
2025-26 $ $47,231
2026-29 $ $22,560
2027-28 $ $22,560
Total contract Cost $ $92,351
Funding for the one-time implementation and system modernization will be supported through the Information Technology Asset Replacement Budget. Ongoing service costs will be funded through the Information Technology operating budget.

As discussed above, the implementation of a consolidated Unified Communications platform will allow the City to phase out several separate telecommunications services currently supported by multiple vendors. These services presently account for approximately $67,000 in annual expenditures within the IT General Fund (1005450).

The consolidation of these services will reduce administrative overhead, streamline vendor management, and improve long-term budget efficiency.

STAFF REPORT

CITY OF SOLANA BEACH
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Alyssa Muto, City Manager
MEETING DATE: March 25, 2026
ORIGINATING DEPT: Human Resources – Pouneh Sammak, HR Director SUBJECT: Approving the Addition and Reclassification of Positions within the Following Departments/Divisions: Finance,
Recreation, Code Compliance and Building and Updating
the Fiscal Year 2025/2026 Salary and Compensation Plan
BACKGROUND:

In accordance with the City’s Personnel Rules and Regulations, Section 8.10, the City Council authorizes and approves all salary and benefit plans for employees and establishes salary ranges pursuant to the recommendation of the City Manager. Salary and benefits for all employees (Represented, Executive Management, Mid-Management, Management, Confidential, and Temporary/Part-time Employees) are included in the Salary and Compensation Plan approved by the City Council each fiscal year. The City Council must approve a Salary and Compensation Plan for all employees to coincide with fiscal appropriations of a new fiscal year and new budget. Subsequent revisions to the adopted Salary and Compensation Plan will be recommended by the City Manager pursuant to City Personnel Rules and approved by the City Council.

This item is before the City Council to consider approving Resolution 2026-028 (Attachment 1) for the reclassification of two positions, one in Finance and one in Code Compliance and to add two new full-time positions, one in Recreation and one in the Building Division, and to update the Fiscal Year 2025/2026 Salary and Compensation Plan to reflect these changes.

DISCUSSION:

It is the responsibility of the City Manager to consistently engage in organizational analysis of various City operations to improve efficiency and effectiveness and ensure the most economical means of conducting business is achieved. Section 2.08.070, Section D, of the Solana Beach Municipal Code (SBMC), “Powers and Duties (of City Manager)” Administrative Reorganization of Offices, states:

It shall be the duty and responsibility of the City Manager to conduct studies and effect such administrative reorganization of offices, positions or units under the City Item J.4
March 25, 2026
Addition and Reclassification of Positions
(Finance, Recreation, Code and Building)

Page 2 of 6 ends

Manager’s direction as may be indicated in the interest of efficient, effective and economical conduct of the City’s business.

Proposed Reclassification
The reclassifications discussed below are recommended to enhance the efficiency of staff management and workload distribution across City Departments. These changes will support organizational efficiency, growth, and foster succession planning, ultimately contributing to the long-term development and sustainability of the City's departments.

Finance Department
Staff recommend reclassifying the current Accountant position to a Payroll and Fiscal Specialist position (Attachment 2) and updating the City’s Salary and Compensation Plan and the FY 2025/2026 Confidential Salary Schedule 2 (Attachment 3).

This reclassification will strengthen the department’s ability to recruit and hire an experienced and highly qualified candidate for the role. As payroll processes, benefits administration, compliance tracking, and fiscal reporting continue to grow in complexity, the specialized duties required no longer align with a traditional Accountant classification.

The Payroll and Fiscal Specialist role more accurately reflects the advanced knowledge and technical expertise needed, including detailed understanding of labor laws, the CalPERS retirement system, payroll tax regulations, MOU interpretation, and audit standards. Establishing a dedicated specialist position will help ensure ongoing compliance, improve accuracy, and reduce the risk of costly errors. Additionally, in several recent recruitment efforts for both temporary help and full-time hires, the department has been unable to attract highly qualified candidates, leading to repeated turnover (2 temp hires and 1 full-time hire) and creating additional work and training demands for staff.

The Payroll and Fiscal Specialist will perform a variety of difficult and technical payroll duties in support of the City’s payroll unit and additionally perform technical and clerical accounting work in connection with the preparation, validation, examination, coding, and reconciliation of fiscal, financial, and statistical records. This position is a FLSA nonexempt hourly position on the Confidential Salary Schedule 2 (pay grade 114-A).

Code Compliance Division
Staff recommend reclassifying a currently budgeted part-time/temporary Parking Enforcement Officer to a full-time Code Compliance Specialist position (Attachment 4).

The Code Compliance Specialist position is currently on the Miscellaneous Employees’ Salary Schedule 3 at pay grade MIS-4301(Attachment 5).

This reclassification will enable the department to address not only parking enforcement issues but also a significantly wider range of community needs, including property Item J.4
March 25, 2026
Addition and Reclassification of Positions
(Finance, Recreation, Code and Building)

Page 3 of 6 ends

maintenance, zoning violations, nuisance complaints, and business compliance.

Converting the position from a part‑time temporary parking enforcement officer role to a full‑time Code Compliance Specialist will also provide consistent coverage, timelier response to service requests, and improved follow‑through on cases that may require ongoing oversight. Additionally, in several recent recruitment efforts, the department has been unable to attract highly qualified candidates, leading to repeated turnover (3 hires) and creating additional work and training demands for staff.

The Code Compliance Specialist will be responsible for performing a variety of routine parking and code compliance supportive functions involving specific areas such as illegal signage, unapproved roadway encroachments, trash and weed abatement, unlawful stormwater discharges, unlawful noise activity, initial complaint response unlawful construction, business licensing, illegal vendors, RV Parking Permits, vacation rental compliance, and nuisance vehicles; patrols to enforce parking laws and regulations. This position is a FLSA non-exempt hourly position and a part of the Miscellaneous Employee Group.

Proposed Additional Classifications
Due to increased workloads and the addition of new programs, the proposed new classifications and full‑time equivalent positions are recommended to support employee development, strengthen succession planning, and ensure continuity of knowledge across departments. These new full‑time roles will also enhance workload distribution, allowing departments to allocate tasks more effectively and improve overall service delivery.

Recreation Department (additional full-time employee)
The Parks & Recreation Department currently consists of two regular full‑time employees (a Manager and a Coordinator) and two part‑time/temporary staff. To support expanding programs and growing community needs, staff recommends adding a new full‑time position for a total of three regular full-time employees to establish a clearer and more sustainable staffing structure. Creating this role also provides a natural promotional opportunity, enabling the current Recreation Programs Coordinator to advance to a supervisor role, while ensuring that essential operational responsibilities remain fully staffed. This approach enhances employee development, strengthens retention, and helps maintain continuity of knowledge within the department.

Building Division (additional full-time employee)
The Building Division is currently staffed by two regular full-time employees: a Building Official and a Permit Technician. Due to increased workload and to provide a more streamlined, consolidated level of service, staff is recommending the creation of a centralized “Permit Center.” In this model, all departments, including Building, Planning, Item J.4
March 25, 2026
Addition and Reclassification of Positions
(Finance, Recreation, Code and Building)

Page 4 of 6 ends

Engineering, and Fire, would intake their respective permits through a single point of entry, where they would then be routed to the appropriate reviewing divisions.

Establishing a Permit Center would significantly reduce the clerical and administrative burden currently placed on Fire Prevention staff and Engineers, who have historically handled both administrative processing and technical plan review and inspection duties.

This structure would also ensure adequate coverage and continuity of operations by providing backup support when a Permit Technician is absent. The Permit Technician classification is a part of the Miscellaneous Employees’ Salary Schedule 3 at pay grade MIS-4351 (Attachment 5).

CEQA COMPLIANCE STATEMENT: Not a project as defined by CEQA.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The estimated fiscal impacts for salaries & benefits shown are calculated based on Step C of the associated pay scale for the new positions and all impacts are based on 2.5 months for FY 2026 and based on full fiscal year for FY 2027.

There is no fiscal impact for the reclassification of the Accountant position to the Payroll and Fiscal Specialist position as this position is vacant and funds are available for FY 2026 and FY 2027. The Accountant and the Payroll and Fiscal Specialist role are both in the same pay grade on the Confidential Salary Schedule 2 (pay grade 114-A).

There is no fiscal impact for the reclassification of the Part Time Parking Enforcement Officer to the Full Time Code Compliance Specialist position for FY 2026 as the position is presently vacant and there are funds available. The FY 2027 estimated cost for the FT position is $96,520, however, there is $24,056 already budgeted, which brings the fiscal impact for FY 2027 to $72,464.

The estimated fiscal impact for the new Recreation Programs Coordinator position is $20,108 for FY 2026 and $96,520 for FY 2027 and forward.

The estimated fiscal impact for the new Permit Technician position is $20,273 for FY 2026 and $97,313 for FY 2027 and forward.

MEETING DATE: March 25, 2026
ORIGINATING DEPT: Finance Department – Rachel Jacobs, Finance Director SUBJECT: Amending the Professional Services Agreement with KForce, Inc. for Temporary Staffing Services
BACKGROUND:

The Finance Department has a vacancy and is requesting temporary staffing assistance.

The current contract with KForce, Inc. has a not-to-exceed of $65,000 annually.

Temporary staffing services have already been utilized for the Clerk's Office, Finance Department, and City’s Manager’s Office so the annual limit has been reached, however, the Finance Department is requiring additional assistance of temporary staffing during the hiring process of their vacant position.

This item is before the City Council for consideration of Resolution 2026-030 (Attachment 1) authorizing the City Manager to execute an amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with KForce, Inc. (Attachment 2) to increase the annual contract not to exceed amount by $30,000 for FY 2025/26 to a total of $95,000.

DISCUSSION:

The City Manager executed a one-year Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with KForce, Inc. for temporary staffing services July 1, 2024 (Attachment 3). The PSA was established with an annual not-to-exceed amount of $65,000.

To date, total funds spent with KForce, Inc. have reached the $65,000 limit. Forecasted costs, for the rest of the fiscal year are estimated to be an additional $30,000.

Staff recommends amending the PSA to add $30,000 for additional temporary staffing services in Fiscal Years 2025/26 only. This amendment would increase the contract notto-exceed amount to $95,000.

This item is presented for City Council consideration of Resolution 2026-034 (Attachment 1), authorizing the purchase of two new pickup trucks for the Solana Beach Fire Department.

DISCUSSION:

The Solana Beach Fire Department, in coordination with the City of Del Mar, is preparing to add two key permanent leadership positions, Fire Chief and Fire Marshal, as part of the transition from the Cooperative Management Agreement with Encinitas at the end of this month. These positions will be critical to meet the needs of the cities of Solana Beach and Del Mar for fire prevention and emergency response services within the two cities.

Fire Department - New Vehicle Purchases
2 of 5
Presently, the two cities have approved the City Managers to enter into a cost-sharing agreement as an interim step until further review and analysis can be completed by the two cities for the long-term organizational structure.

The acquisition and provision of fleet vehicles for the two departments has also been divided up between the two cities to ensure cost-sharing of vehicles associated with the shared personnel. Under this cost-sharing, the City of Solana Beach will be purchasing the Fire Chief vehicle, and the City of Del Mar will be purchasing a similar model and upfitted vehicle for the Fire Marshal. The fleet vehicles are necessary to provide reliable transportation capable of supporting emergency response, field inspections, incident command activities, and transport of personnel and specialized safety equipment. These command vehicles serve as critical mobile assets that allow leadership staff to respond rapidly and maintain operational readiness. These vehicles will be the same make, model, color and upfitting to ensure consistency between the two departments and the shared management staff.

Additionally, each department has a utility truck available to Fire personnel to use for attending trainings, meetings, and general duties, not requiring a fire or emergency response apparatus. The City of Solana Beach is in need of a new utility fleet vehicle for the Solana Beach Station fire personnel. This was previously presented and approved by Council as part of the FY 2026-2027 budget.

Fleet Purchases
To meet these operational needs, the Staff is requesting approval for two vehicle procurements:

1. Acquisition of a new pickup to be assigned to the incoming Fire Chief position.

2. Replacement of an existing Department utility pickup that has reached the end of its service life due to age, accumulated mileage, and mechanical deterioration.

Both vehicles will be the same make and model to streamline maintenance, ensure parts compatibility, and maintain continuity within the fleet. However, each unit will be upfitted differently based on its intended operational function. For example, specialized command lighting, communication systems, storage solutions, and equipment racks have been scoped for the Department utility vehicle, with only limited upfitting of lighting and siren system for the Fire Chief vehicle.

Additionally, each of the new vehicles will be installed with emergency communication radios and associated Fire Department vehicle graphics. These enhancements are essential to ensure operational readiness, maintain reliable field communications, and provide clear vehicle identification for emergency response. The communications systems will be the same as those installed in the City of Del Mar purchase and existing vehicles Item J.6

for consistent and reliable communication. Staff recommends purchasing the pickups equipped with the traditional gasoline engine. After evaluating operational requirements and facility upgrades necessary for electric vehicle charging; projected duty cycles and strike team needs; and long-term maintenance considerations, staff determined that the gasoline configuration provides several advantages over an all-electric model.

These purchases will improve the reliability of the Fire Department’s fleet, ensure that new leadership position is properly equipped, and support the City’s continued commitment to safe, efficient, and effective emergency service delivery.

Municipal Fleet Regulatory Compliance
While the proposed vehicle acquisitions do not satisfy the City’s current Climate Action Plan requirement that 50 percent of new fleet purchases consist of zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs), staff anticipate that future vehicle replacements within the City, where operationally feasible, will transition to fully electric platforms. This forward-looking approach will allow the City to maintain compliance with the City climate goals.

In evaluating compliance considerations, staff also reviewed applicable state regulatory frameworks. The emergency response vehicles proposed for acquisition are exempt from the California Air Resources Board’s (CARB) Advanced Clean Fleets (ACF) regulation pursuant to the California Vehicle Code. This exemption recognizes the critical need for fire apparatus and emergency response vehicles to remain fully operational, rapidly deployable, and equipped with powertrains that can reliably support sustained emergency operations. As a result, the proposed purchases maintain full regulatory compliance with state climate goals while ensuring that the Fire Department retains vehicles capable of meeting mission-critical performance standards and reliability.

Purchasing Methods
The City’s purchasing ordinance, Section 3.08.130(C) of the Solana Beach Municipal Code, authorizes “public agencies” to participate in cooperative purchasing agreements.

The City participates in several cooperative purchasing organizations, including Sourcewell, formally known as National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA). These organizations establish and provide nationwide competitively solicited purchasing contracts for use by participating public agencies.

To ensure efficiency and obtain the most favorable pricing, City staff recommends entering into an agreement with National Auto Fleet Group utilizing Sourcewell, Contract No. 081325-NAF.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Staff is requesting a total appropriation of $257,392.50 from the Asset Replacement Fund Balance to the Asset Replacement Fire Vehicles Account (1356120.66500). This amount includes $227,392.50 for base vehicle acquisitions and upfits.

In addition, Staff is requesting $15,000 per vehicle to fund the installation of emergency communication radios and associated vehicle graphics. These enhancements are essential to ensure operational readiness, maintain reliable field communications, and provide clear vehicle identification for emergency response. Emergency communication radios and graphics procurements will be carried out in full compliance with the City’s established purchasing policies and procedures.

WORK PLAN:

While the City adopted Work Plan does not specifically call out the transition from the existing Cooperative Management Agreement for Fire management personnel and services between the cities of Encinitas, Del Mar, and Solana Beach, to the two-city organization, the reorganization and cost-sharing of the personnel and equipment, including fleet vehicles would be consistent with the priorities of Healthy and Livable Communities, under the Youth, Senior, and Community Well-Being policy.

MEETING DATE: March 25, 2026
ORIGINATING DEPT: Finance Department – Rachel Jacobs, Finance Director SUBJECT: City Council Consideration of Resolution 2026-018 Approving the Adoption of Mid-Year Budget Adjustments
for Fiscal Year 2026.

BACKGROUND:

During the fiscal year, as new budgetary information becomes available, Staff presents that information to the Council for consideration when adjustments are recommended to the Adopted Budget. In addition, it is the responsibility of the City Manager to consistently engage in organizational analysis of various City operations to improve efficiency and effectiveness and ensure that the most economical means of conducting business are achieved. Section 2.08.070, Section D, of the Solana Beach Municipal Code (SBMC), “Powers and Duties (of City Manager)” Administrative Reorganization of Offices, states:

It shall be the duty and responsibility of the City Manager to conduct studies and effect such administrative reorganization of offices, positions or units under the City Manager’s direction as may be indicated in the interest of efficient, effective, and economical conduct of the City’s business.

Staff is recommending the revision of appropriations to the Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 Annual Budget (Exhibit A). This item is before the City Council for consideration of Resolution 2026-018 (Attachment 1) approving the adoption of mid-year budget adjustments for FY 2026.

DISCUSSION:

The City of Solana Beach’s (City) Operating Budget Policies state that total expenditures of a particular fund may not exceed that which is appropriated by the City Council without a budget amendment. In addition, Section 3.08.040 of the Solana Beach Municipal Code limits the purchases by departments within the total departmental budget appropriations.

Staff is recommending the City Council authorize the Finance Director/City Treasurer to amend the FY 2026 Adopted Budget for certain revenue and expenditure appropriations.

STAFF REPORT

CITY OF SOLANA BEACH
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Alyssa Muto, City Manager
MEETING DATE: March 25, 2026
ORIGINATING DEPT: Community Development Department - John Delmer, Assistant Planner
SUBJECT: City Council Consideration of Resolution No. 2026-024 Approving the Housing Element Annual Progress Report,
Mid-Cycle Housing Element Evaluation, and Housing
Successor Annual Report for Fiscal Year 2024/25, and
Directing Submittal to the California Department of
Housing and Community Development and the Governor’s
Office of Planning and Research; and Resolution No. 2026- 026 Directing Staff to Develop a Priority Processing
Program and Development Impact Fee Deferral Program
for Extremely Low-Income Housing, Special Needs
Housing, and Deed-Restricted Low-Income Accessory
Dwelling Units Consistent with the City’s 6th Cycle
Housing Element Programs
BACKGROUND:

Government Code Section 65400 requires that each city and county planning agency prepare an annual progress report (APR) on the status of the Housing Element of its General Plan and report on the progress of the implementation of the policies in the Housing Element, using the forms and definitions adopted by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). A required part of the report is the Housing Successor Annual Report (Housing Successor Report).

The item before City Council (Council) is to consider adoption of Resolution 2026-024 (Attachment 1) approving the Housing Element APR (Attachment 3) and Housing Successor Annual Report for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024/25 (Attachment 4) pursuant to California Health and Safety Code Section 34176.1(f) and to consider adoption of Resolution 2026-026 (Attachment 2) directing staff to develop a priority processing program and development impact fee deferral program for extremely low-income housing, special needs housing, and deed-restricted low-income accessory dwelling units. If approved, Staff will submit the final reports to HCD and the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research and will bring back a resolution for City Council to consider adopting program Item L.2

guidelines for priority processing and development impact fee deferrals for specific housing project types consistent with the City’s Housing Element programs.

DISCUSSION:

The Housing Element is an important planning policy document. It is used to identify the projected housing needs of the community and establish policies to support the further development of all types of housing, including affordable housing, within the City. All California municipalities are required to adopt a Housing Element as part of their General Plan. Distinct from the other General Plan elements, the Housing Element is subject to detailed statutory requirements and mandatory review by HCD.

The Council adopted the City of Solana Beach Housing Element 2021-2029 and Negative Declaration by Resolution 2023-058 on May 10, 2023. The document was certified by HCD on June 8, 2023.

This progress report covers the period from January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025, and includes statistics on the production of all housing types, including affordable housing, during the sixth cycle of the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) for the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG), which began on April 15, 2021, and ends on April 15, 2029. The 2025 Housing Element Annual Progress Report (APR) (Attachment 3) contains the information required by state law. In addition to the required annual reporting, this staff report also includes the City’s mid-cycle evaluation of Housing Element implementation. The mid-cycle evaluation provides an assessment of the City’s progress toward meeting its RHNA allocation and implementing Housing Element programs during the first half of the planning period. The data included in the APR and summarized below represents the City’s cumulative progress to date and serves as the basis for the mid-cycle evaluation. The following are the key takeaways from the City’s cumulative mid-cycle evaluation.

Table A - Housing Development Applications Submitted
As part of the reporting requirements, cities are required to provide data on housing developments for which an application was submitted (and deemed complete) between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2025. Housing development applications include an application for a discretionary entitlement, which results in a newly constructed housing unit, or a building permit application when only a ministerial process is required. Only newly constructed housing units are reported. For example, an application for an addition to an existing residence would not be counted; however, an application for a demolition and replacement of a residential structure would be counted. Furthermore, only applications which were “deemed complete” in 2025 were included. Attachment 3, Table A, includes all housing applications deemed complete in 2025, the number of proposed units by affordability level, and the number of units that have been approved by affordability level.

In 2025, 19 housing development applications were deemed complete for a combined total of 23 units.

To estimate the income categories that Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) may serve, the City considered the size of the units and typical rental rates for comparable housing options within the community. For the purposes of this report, staff assumed that units 800 square feet or smaller could be rented at rates affordable to moderate-income households, consistent with existing housing trends. Larger units were assumed to require higher rental rates and were therefore categorized as serving above moderate-income households. To improve the accuracy of affordability reporting, the City recently developed an Affordability Tracking Sheet to help confirm the actual affordability level for each housing unit. This tracking sheet will be distributed to all applicants for ADUs during this planning period, including units that have already been constructed. The tracking sheet will assist the City in identifying the actual affordability levels for ADUs and other applicable housing units.

Information collected through this process will be incorporated into the City’s 2026 Annual Progress Report (APR).

Table A-2 - Annual Building Activity Report Summary
Another reporting requirement includes the requirement for data on net new housing units and developments that have received any one of the following: an entitlement, a building permit or a certificate of occupancy. The data is included in Attachment 3, Table A2. Only developments that resulted in net new housing units are included in Table A2. For example, an application that included the demolition and replacement of a residential structure would not be counted in this table; however, a new housing application proposed on a vacant lot would be counted.

It is expected that the same projects will be reported in multiple years of APRs. For example, a project will be listed in three separate APRs if it is entitled in one year, receives a building permit next year, and the certificate of occupancy in the following year.

Item L.2
March 25, 2026
2025 Annual Progress Report & Mid-Cycle HE Evaluation

Page 4 of 10 ends

In 2025, 4 development projects that result in net new housing units received entitlements, for a combined total of 7 net new units; 37 development projects received building permits for a combined total of 37 net new units; and 14 development projects were finalized for a combined total of 14 net new units.

Table B - Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) Progress Report On July 10, 2020, SANDAG adopted the RHNA allocations for each jurisdiction within the region for an 8-year cycle, beginning on April 15, 2021, and ending April 15, 2029. The RHNA allocation for all income categories for the City of Solana Beach is 875 units over this 8-year projection period.

Attachment 3, Table B identifies the number of net new dwelling units that were issued building permits from January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025, based on income category.

As of December 31, 2025, a net total of 215 housing units were issued building permits, leaving a remainder of 660 units in the total RHNA allocation of 875 units for all income types. Of those 215 housing units, 37 were permitted during the 2025 reporting period. A breakdown of the housing units by year is depicted in Attachment 3, Table B.

For the current RHNA cycle, the number of permitted housing units by affordable category is as follows:
 The City’s total RHNA allocation for above moderate-income units is 240 and 80 units in this category have been permitted (~37% of units permitted; 27% RHNA Goal).
• The total RHNA allocation for moderate income units is 160 and 103 moderate income units, which are Accessory Dwelling Units, have been permitted (~48% of units permitted; 18% RHNA Goal).
• The total RHNA allocation for low-income units is 159 and 32 units have been permitted (~15% of units permitted; 18% RHNA Goal).
• The total RHNA allocation for very low-income units is 316 and 0 units have been permitted.

Despite permitting only 25 percent of the City’s total Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) to date, the distribution of permitted units by income category demonstrates meaningful progress toward meeting the City’s housing obligations. The proportion of units permitted in several income categories meets or exceeds the proportional share of the City’s RHNA allocation. Specifically, above moderate-income units represent approximately 37 percent of all permitted units, exceeding the category’s 27 percent share of the City’s RHNA allocation. Moderate-income units account for approximately 48 percent of permitted units, compared to an 18 percent RHNA allocation share. Low-income units Item L.2
March 25, 2026
2025 Annual Progress Report & Mid-Cycle HE Evaluation

Page 5 of 10 ends

comprise approximately 15 percent of permitted units, which is approaching the category’s 18 percent RHNA allocation share. While no very low-income units have been permitted to date, the City continues to prioritize opportunities to facilitate development in this category.

The City is actively implementing several Housing Element programs intended to encourage and support affordable housing production, including the Priority Processing Program, which is discussed in greater detail later in this report.

In addition to units already permitted, the City currently has multiple housing projects in various stages of review that would add a number of units comparable to the total number of units permitted to date across several income categories. This development pipeline demonstrates continued progress toward meeting the City’s RHNA obligations during the current planning cycle.

Collectively, the City’s permitted units, active development pipeline, and upcoming programs indicate ongoing progress toward meeting the City’s RHNA allocation and reflect the City’s continued efforts to facilitate housing production across a range of income levels.

Table C –Sites Identified or Rezoned to Accommodate Shortfall Housing Need Attachment 3, Table C is used to report rezoned or identified sites required by no net loss pursuant to Government Code Section 65863. When a city permits or causes its housing element sites inventory site capacity to be insufficient to meet its remaining unmet RHNA, they are required to identify additional sites to meet the RHNA or if needed, rezone sites to accommodate the unmet RHNA. There were no development projects approved in 2025 that resulted in the City’s inability to meet is unmet RHNA; therefore, these reporting requirements do not apply to the City.

Table D – Housing Element Cycle and Implementation Progress Report Attachment 3, Table D provides an itemized status report on implementation of the City’s 2021–2029 Housing Element programs. The Housing Element includes 37 programs adopted by the City Council to implement housing policies that encourage the development of new affordable housing in Solana Beach, expand affordable housing opportunities within the existing housing stock, and facilitate housing production across all income categories identified in the RHNA allocation.

To date, the City has completed 24 of the 37 Housing Element programs. Completed programs include the adoption of several ordinances amending the City’s Municipal Code to facilitate and encourage the development of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). Ten of the 37 programs are annual or ongoing activities that staff will continue to monitor and report on through the Annual Progress Report (APR) process throughout the 6th Housing Element Cycle.

Four programs within the Housing Element Implementation Plan focus specifically on encouraging the development of ADUs. Solana Beach’s RHNA compliance strategy Item L.2
March 25, 2026
2025 Annual Progress Report & Mid-Cycle HE Evaluation

Page 6 of 10 ends

projected the construction of approximately 14 ADUs per year. However, during the current planning period, the City has issued 110 ADU building permits, an average of approximately 18 ADUs per year, with an additional 30 ADU permits currently under plan check review as of the date of this report. As of December 2025, the City has achieved approximately 86 percent of its projected ADU production for the entire 6th Cycle (2021– 2029).

The three programs still in progress—Program 1M, which involves implementing a development review process to support housing for extremely low-income households and special needs populations; Program 1O, which involves facilitating affordable housing development on City-owned land; and Program 3D, which includes updating the City’s Safety Element—are currently underway and are anticipated to be completed by the end of 2026. The completion and ongoing monitoring of 34 of the City’s 37 Housing Element programs demonstrate the City’s continued commitment to facilitating housing development in the community.

Table D – Program 1M Priority Processing Program
As part of the City’s mid-cycle evaluation of Housing Element implementation, staff continues to advance Program 1M to support the development of housing, including Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), affordable to extremely low-income households and individuals with special needs, and to further facilitate the production of affordable housing consistent with the City’s RHNA obligations.

Program 1M proposes the establishment of a Priority Processing Program that would provide development impact fee deferral and expedited permit review for qualifying projects that include units affordable to extremely low-income households or that serve individuals with special needs. The program is intended to reduce upfront development costs and streamline the permitting process for qualifying projects.

Staff is requesting direction from the City Council to return with a proposed ordinance and/or resolution to formally implement the program, including provisions related to development impact fee deferral and expedited review. Staff will work with the City Attorney to ensure that the proper mechanism(s) are brought forward to implement the aforementioned programs and policies.

Development Impact Fee Deferral
Under the City’s current process, development impact fees are required to be paid prior to the issuance of building permits. Under the proposed program, applicants for qualifying projects may request deferral of applicable development impact fees until prior to final inspection.

Item L.2
March 25, 2026
2025 Annual Progress Report & Mid-Cycle HE Evaluation

Page 7 of 10 ends

Priority Processing
The City’s standard review period for discretionary permits is approximately 30 days. Under the proposed Priority Processing Program, qualifying projects would receive expedited review with a target review timeframe of approximately 15 business days.

Table D – Program 1O Affordable Housing on City-Owned Land Program 1O focuses on facilitating affordable housing development opportunities on Cityowned land. As part of this effort, the City is preparing three Requests for Proposals (RFPs) to solicit development partners for affordable housing projects. The first RFP was released in November 2024. The second RFP is anticipated to be released in early April 2026, and the third RFP is expected to be released in late April 2026. Issuance of these RFPs represents a key step in implementing Program 1O and advancing the development of affordable housing on City-owned sites. The City remains committed to facilitating affordable housing opportunities on publicly owned land and anticipates completing this program action by the end of 2026.

Table D – Program 3D: Update to the City’s Safety Element The City is currently in the process of updating the Safety Element of the General Plan in accordance with State requirements. A draft Safety Element was transmitted to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) for review.

Comments from CAL FIRE were received and are being incorporated into the draft document. The updated Safety Element is anticipated to be presented to the City Council for consideration and adoption by the end of 2026.

Table E – Commercial Development Bonus
Attachment 3, Table E is used to report information on commercial development bonuses approved during the reporting period. When an applicant for approval of a commercial development has entered into an agreement for partnered housing to contribute affordable housing through a joint project or two separate projects encompassing affordable housing, the city, county, or city and county shall grant to the commercial developer a development bonus as prescribed in Government Code Section 65915.7. No commercial development bonuses were requested or approved; therefore, these reporting requirements do not apply and were left unreported.

Housing Successor Annual Report
Senate Bill 341 (SB 341), which is codified in Health and Safety Code Section 34176.1 (Section 34176.1) and became effective on January 1, 2014, requires each housing Item L.2

successor that assumed the housing functions of a former redevelopment agency to post a report on its website that contains information regarding the low- and moderate-income housing asset fund (Fund) of the former redevelopment agency for the previous fiscal year.

In this case, the City, as the housing successor (Housing Successor), is required to prepare and post the report.

In addition, the Housing Successor is required to conduct and provide to the Council an independent financial audit (Audit) of the Fund within six months of the end of the fiscal year. The Audit may be included as part of the City’s independent financial audit.

The Housing Successor assumed the housing functions of the former Solana Beach Redevelopment Agency (RDA) on January 11, 2012. The transfer of the functions included the transfer of formerly designated RDA low- and moderate-income housing funds together with any funds generated by former RDA housing assets. The funds must be maintained by the City in the separate Fund and expended in accordance with Section 34176.1.

Allowable expenditures include the development of affordable housing, monitoring and preservation of housing subject to affordability restrictions and covenants, and homelessness prevention and rapid rehousing services for homeless individuals.

To ensure that the monies in the Fund are expended in accordance with the law, Section 34176.1(f) requires an independent financial audit of the Fund within six months of the end of the fiscal year. The Fund has maintained a zero balance for the entirety of the fiscal year. As a result, no audit report was prepared for the fiscal year.

SB 341 also requires annual reporting and website posting of a Housing Successor Report for the fiscal year related to the Fund. The Housing Successor Report for FY 2023/24 includes the following information:
 The Fund’s balance for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, was $0 and there was no financial activity for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, resulting in a $0 fund balance for fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.
 The statutory value of assets owned by the Housing Successor was $0.  The Fund does not have an “excess surplus” (the aggregate of unencumbered funds deposited into the Fund during the preceding four fiscal years).

After Council approval, the Housing Successor Report (Attachment 3) will be posted on the City’s website and submitted to HCD.

In conclusion, Staff recommends that the Council consider approval of Resolution 2026- 024 and Resolution 2026-026 as contained in Attachments 1 and 2. Should the Council approve and adopt Resolution 2026-024 and Resolution 2026-026, it is further recommended that the Council direct Staff to submit the 2025 Housing Element APR and the 2024/25 Housing Successor Annual Report to HCD as required by state law.

WHEREAS, the Housing Element is an important planning tool for the City of Solana Beach in meeting the housing needs of the community. It establishes an action plan to meet these needs pursuant to Government Code Section 65302(c) which sets forth the specific components to be contained in a community’s housing element; and WHEREAS, the Housing Element Programs 1M & 1P are intended to encourage extremely low-income housing, special needs housing and low-income accessory dwelling unit development; and

NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Solana Beach, California, does resolve as follows:

1. That the above recitations are true and correct.

2. This Resolution is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") because this Resolution does not qualify as a "project" under Item L.2

CEQA and because this Resolution will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment (State CEQA Guidelines Section 15060, subd. (c)(2), (3).) Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines defines a project as the whole of an action, which could potentially result in either a direct physical change, or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change, in the environment. Here, this Resolution will not result in any construction or development, and it will not have any other effect that would physically change the environment. This Resolution therefore does not qualify as a project subject to CEQA.

3. That City Staff is directed to bring a Resolution and information for City Council consideration implementing the Priority Processing Program.

4. That City Staff shall prepare a more detailed Development Impact Fee Deferral Program Guidelines for City Council consideration that would be consistent with requirement identified in the Mitigation Fee Act, as amended from time to time.

5. That the Development Impact Fee Deferral Program shall only be eligible for City-wide impact fees including, but not limited to, transportation impact fee, public use facilities impact fee, fire impact fee, public facilities fee, and park development impact fee.

6. That the payment of Development Impact Fee shall be paid by qualifying project prior to building permit final as opposed to building permit issuance.

7. That the Priority Processing Program and Development Impact Fee Deferral Program shall take effect no sooner than May 1, 2026.

Mixed-Use Development on Commercially-Zoned Sites
Program 1A: Inventory sites and initiate planning, encourage mixed use, look for funding. 12/1/2024 6th Cycle Completed
The City conducted stakeholder outreach and meetings with commercial property owners, developers, and community stakeholders to evaluate opportunities for mixed-use development and identify potential development constraints. Staff met with property owners of Housing Element inventory sites, including 971 Lomas Santa Fe Drive to discuss mixed-use redevelopment concepts, zoning standards, and permitting requirements. The City also discussed mixeduse standards and development opportunities during quarterly Business Liaison Group meetings. While no development standard amendments were requested, stakeholders requested clearer guidance on the development review process. In response, the City created a Planning Permits webpage and updated the General Project Application to clarify submittal requirements and review procedures. The City also implemented process improvements to streamline permitting and CEQA review, including use of CEQA Class 32 infill exemptions where applicable and voluntary pre-application meetings to facilitate early project review and determine CEQA applicability. These streamlining measures have been applied to several mixed-use and infill development projects citywide.

Program 1C: Track ADU/JADU creation and affordability levels 12/1/2024 6th Cycle Completed During this reporting period, the City has issued 30 building permits for ADU/JADUs. To estimate the income category these units may serve, the City considered the size of the ADUs and typical rental rates for comparable housing options within the community. For the purposes of this report, staff assumed that units 800 square feet or smaller could be rented at rates affordable to moderate-income households, consistent with existing housing trends. Larger units were assumed to have higher rental rates and were therefore categorized as serving above moderate-income households.The City recently implemented an Affordability Tracking Sheet to help confirm the actual affordability level for each housing unit. This tracking sheet will be distributed to all applicants for Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) during this planning period, including units that have already been constructed, are currently under review, or are under construction. The tracking sheet will assist the City in identifying the actual affordability levels for all units, including ADUs. Information collected through this process will be incorporated into the City’s 2026 (APR).

CALIFORNIA HEALTH AND SAFETY CODE SECTION 34176.1(f) FOR THE

CITY OF SOLANA BEACH, HOUSING SUCCESSOR TO THE FORMER SOLANA BEACH

REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
This Housing Successor Annual Report (Report) regarding the Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund (LMIHAF) has been prepared pursuant to California Health and Safety Code Section 34176.1(f). This Report sets forth certain details of the activities of the City of Solana Beach, acting in its capacity as housing successor to the former Solana Beach Redevelopment Agency (Housing Successor), during Fiscal Year 2024-25 (Fiscal Year). The purpose of this Report is to provide the governing body of the Housing Successor an annual report on the housing assets and activities of the Housing Successor under Part 1.85, Division 24 of the California Health and Safety Code, in particular sections 34176 and 34176.1 (Dissolution Law).

The following Report is based upon information prepared by Housing Successor staff and information contained within the independent financial audit of the Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund for Fiscal Year 2024-25 (Fiscal Year). The LMIHAF has maintained a zero balance for the entirety of the Fiscal Year. As a result, no audit report was prepared for the Fiscal Year. Further, this Report conforms with and is organized into sections I. through XI., inclusive, pursuant to Section 34176.1(f) of the Dissolution Law:

Replacement Housing: According to the 2009-2014 Implementation Plan for the Former Agency, no Section 33413(a) replacement housing obligations were transferred to the Housing Successor. The Former Agency’s Implementation Plan is posted on the City’s website at http://www.ci.solana-beach.ca.us/index.asp?SEC=4459C1D7-9FF7-4988-92FFD6EC8A2F593E&Type=B_BASIC .

Item L.2
Attachment 4
1663\01\2324437.1
3/20/2018
Inclusionary/Production Housing. According to the 2009-2014 Implementation Plan for the Former Agency, the Former Agency was required to construct 2.1 units of very low income housing to meet its inclusionary requirement. The project proposed by the Hitzke Development Corporation and funded in part by the Housing Successor will provide 10 very low income housing units.

IX. EXTREMELY-LOW INCOME TEST. Section 34176.1(a)(3)(B) requires that the Housing Successor must require at least 30% of the LMIHAF to be expended for development of rental housing affordable to and occupied by households earning 30% or less of the AMI. If the Housing Successor fails to comply with the Extremely-Low Income requirement in any five-year report, then the Housing Successor must ensure that at least 50% of the funds remaining in the LMIHAF be expended in each fiscal year following the latest fiscal year following the report on households earning 30% or less of the AMI until the Housing Successor demonstrates compliance with the Extremely-Low Income requirement.

There are no available funds, no deposits, no interest and no expenditures for the five-year period of 2019-2024. Therefore, the extremely low-income test does not apply.

X. SENIOR HOUSING TEST. Neither the Housing Successor, the Former Agency nor the City provided funding to deed-restricted rental housing limited to seniors within the past 10 years.

XI. EXCESS SURPLUS TEST. Excess Surplus is defined in Section 34176.1(d) as an unencumbered amount in the account that exceeds the greater of one million dollars ($1,000,000) or the aggregate amount deposited into the account during the Housing Successor’s preceding four Fiscal Years, whichever is greater.

In the previous five fiscal years, a total of $0 was deposited into the LMIHAF. Therefore, the LMIHAF does not have an Excess Surplus.

RE: Agenda Item #L.2 March 25, 2026 – Housing Element Annual Report / Priority Processing Program – Deferral of Impact Fees – SUPPORT

Dear Mayor Heebner and Councilmembers:

The League of Women Voters of North County San Diego supports this action to provide timely reporting of Solana Beach’s Housing Element 6th Cycle Annual Progress Report and commend the city’s action to facilitate production of affordable housing through use of public land and temporary deferral of development impact fees.

The LWVNCSD supports Resolution 2026-026 directing staff to develop a priority processing program and development impact fee deferral program for extremely low-income housing, special needs housing, and deed-restricted low income accessory dwelling units consistent with the City’s 6th cycle housing element programs.

The League of Women Voters supports measures to increase the supply of safe, decent, and adequate housing for all Californians including by all levels of government utilizing all means (surplus land, fee deferrals) to address our housing crisis.

Thank you for your service and for your consideration.

STAFF REPORT

CITY OF SOLANA BEACH
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Alyssa Muto, City Manager
MEETING DATE: March 25, 2026
ORIGINATING DEPT: Human Resources - Pouneh Sammak, HR Director SUBJECT: Approving the Appointment of Jay Goldstone as the Interim Assistant City Manager, Adopting the
Corresponding Salary Schedule for Assistant City
Manager, and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Interim City Manager Employment Agreement
BACKGROUND:

On February 17, 2026, the current Assistant City Manager announced his resignation from the City with an effective date of March 20, 2026.

In response to this announcement, the City Manager has begun the recruitment process with Peckham & McKenney, an Executive Search Firm in order to find a new permanent Assistant City Manager.

During this transition period, Government (Gov.) Code section 21221(h) of the Public Employees’ Retirement System permits the governing body to appoint a CalPERS retiree to a vacant position requiring specialized skills during recruitment for a permanent appointment, and provides that such appointment will not subject the retired person to reinstatement from retirement or loss of benefits so long as it is a single appointment that does not exceed 960 hours in a fiscal year.

This item is before City Council to approve Resolution 2026-027 (Attachment 1) to appoint Mr. Jay Goldstone, a CalPERS retired annuitant, as the Interim Assistant City Manager during the recruitment for a permanent replacement. The Council will consider and authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with Mr. Goldstone as Interim Assistant City Manager effective March 26, 2026 (Attachment 2).

DISCUSSION:

Item L.3
March 25, 2026
Interim Assistant City Manager Appointment

Page 2 of 3 ends

Mr. Goldstone is a retired CalPERS annuitant with over 20 years of management and local government/municipal experience. Mr. Goldstone has served as a Special Advisor to the Mayor of the City of San Diego, overseeing the redevelopment of six contiguous blocks in the heart of downtown San Diego, including the City’s Civic Center until February 2025.

Prior to that he was the Interim Chief Operating Officer for the City of San Diego responsible for day-to-day operations of the City; the permanent position that he previously held from 2007 to 2013. Additionally, Mr. Goldstone held roles with at the City of Pasadena as the Director of Finance; City of Santa Clara as the Assistant Director of Finance; and City of Richmond as Interim City Manager.

Given Mr. Goldstone’s unique knowledge and experience in the chief executive role and office, the City Manager recommends hiring Mr. Goldstone as an Interim Assistant City Manager during the recruitment process and until a permanent Assistant City Manager has been selected and hired. During this time not only will Mr. Goldstone assist with the recruitment of a new Assistant City Manager, but also the day-to-day operational oversight and support of City staff. The following is a summary of the compensation terms of Mr.

Goldstone’s Interim Assistant City Manager agreement:
 $129.81 hourly rate in accordance with pay grade M9 on the Management Salary Schedule 1 (Attachment 3)
 Limited to working 960 hours per fiscal year
 As a retired annuitant, no other benefits are associated with this interim position CEQA COMPLIANCE STATEMENT:

Not a project as defined by CEQA
FISCAL IMPACT:

The estimated fiscal impact for the rest of FY 2025/2026, based on 40 hours per week for 3 months of this agreement would be $63,212 for salary; however, it is likely that Mr.

Goldstone will work on average 20 hours per week. An increased appropriation is needed in City Manager, Temp/Seasonal/Interim Account 1005200.61020.

The estimated fiscal impact for FY 2026/2027, based on the maximum allowed 960 hours for the fiscal year would be $126,425 for salary. No additional appropriations are being requested at this time as based on hire date for a new Assistant City Manager, there will be funds available in regular salary as the position will be vacant.
