Projects and Activities
 Front Street Maintenance Project
 This project continues to progress, with the recent completion of the Storm Drain inlets in the underpass. The following work remains to be completed: Paving, stamped decorative crosswalks, signal upgrades from loops to cameras, and the transporting of asphalt grindings to the WRF. The paving schedule needs to be updated to account for the delay in receiving the traffic signal cameras. Next up for the project will be the addition of the landscaping vignette to the Front St corridor as a separately bid project.  Community Center Modernization Project
 The Community Center Modernization Project is nearing its end, with the recent completion of the paint touch-ups in the Gym/Stage area. City staff have met with the contractor and construction manager, with the final items to be completed being the ADA push button, gym lighting, a reevaluation of the gym hall exit doors, and any pending warrant issues. This project is tentatively scheduled to end in mid-March.  Corp Yard Modular
 The Corp Yard Modular was finally delivered and installed! City Staff and Contractor completed the punch list walkthrough on January 3rd. Minor cosmetic items remain, such as the skirting and minor touch-ups. The contractor is scheduled to return to complete items before Staff takes this before Council for acceptance and release of retention.
 FD Apparatus Bay Building
 Construction for the Apparatus Bay, which will house FD’s new ladder truck, has begun. Work completed so far has been the construction of a new parking lot behind the current City Hall which will serve the new FD apparatus building. Work continues the site work and preparing for the new building's arrival.

 Upcoming Projects:
o Highway Safety Improvement Program Cycle 10 – HSIP 10 was successfully 58 put out for bid and received a bid within the budgeted amount. It was taken to council and approved on 2/05.

Water Department Activities
 Well 9 SCADA
 PW Staff completed the SCADA (remote access) upgrades at Well 9. This helps ensure the Well is functioning as intended, providing real-time alerts to operators, serving as the brain for the well, and ensuring the City of Soledad residents continue to have water services.
 Hydrant Maintenance
 Yearly Hydrant Flushing is being performed as part of the maintenance of the Water Distribution System. This enables the water lines to be flushed out to remove deposits and ensures the hydrants operate as intended. All flushed water enters the City’s storm drain system, which recharges it in the City’s basins or riverbeds.  PW staff are in the process of repairing or replacing around 30 hydrants found to be in need of maintenance or upgraded with higher flow hydrants.  Stormwater Maintenance
 PW staff reinforced the CDCR sewer force main crossing, which crosses through a storm drain ditch on Camphora Road. In addition to the work done on the Stormwater Basin on Front Street, the city was seen through the recent storms with minimal issues.

Water Reclamation Facility Activities:
 WRF Weed Abatement
 PW staff continue efforts to perform weed abatement within the large infiltration basins to ensure they percolate as intended and operate smoothly. 
 WRF activities
 WRF staff attended a MISCO Water/EDI aeration class at Monterey on January 28th 59  WRF Repairs
 PW staff performed maintenance and repairs on the Grit vortex system at the pump.

Specifically, they replaced the pump, flapper valve & grit elevator and had the gear oil changed. This system is used to separate solid materials called grit from wastewater and is an important process of wastewater treatment.
 Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) Audit
 The City of Soledad is enrolled under the State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) General Waste Discharge Requirement (WDR) Order for Sanitary Sewer Systems. Enrollees under the Reissued General WDR Order are required to develop a Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) which must be audited at least every three (3) years and updated every six (6) years according to the State Water Board’s regulatory schedule. To comply with the SSMP Audit requirements, the City collaborated with Fischer Compliance, LLC to complete an SSMP Audit covering August 2021 through August 2024. Fischer Compliance, LLC has certified that the SSMP Audit Report meets and/or exceeds the minimum requirements specified by the Reissued General WDR Order.
 SSMP update
 Staff have begun updating the city’s SSMP. Work done on this has included creating a city map of our Storm and Sewer systems to share with the State Water Resources Control Board. PW Staff will continue working on the SSMP update to ensure compliance with the requirements set out by the State Water Resources Control Board.  Park Ballfields
 City of Soledad’s Public Works Park Staff, with the dedicated support of the Little League Board members, have been hard at work preparing the fields at Gallardo Park and Chester Aaroe Park for this year’s baseball and softball season.

TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Don Wilcox, Public Works Director and Alex Ramos, Assistant Engineer MEETING DATE: March 5, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 9.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and adopt Resolution No.6200, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad Approving a Contract Change Order for Construction Services with Monterey Peninsula Engineering for the Amount of $196,093 Plus a 20% Contingency ($9,610) for a Total Not-To-Exceed Amount of $205,703 for the Front Street Maintenance Project and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute said Contract Change Order on Behalf of the City of Soledad”.

Executive Summary
This change order #6 includes additional work to install wet-set truncated domes on the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) ramps, capture additional bid item quantities, and account for work performed during this project beyond the original contract. Staff requested that this change order include the switch from surface-mounted to wet-set truncated domes to prevent tripping hazards on the existing ADA ramps at several intersections (Encinal, Main, Soledad, and Kidder). The surfacemounted truncated domes, once installed, create a lip because they sit on top of the existing concrete, whereas the wet-set version allows the truncated dome to be installed flush with the concrete, eliminating the lip and tripping hazard. Wet-set truncated domes result in a better final product and are more aesthetically pleasing. Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council considers and approves this Contract Change Order along with a 20% contingency to address any unforeseen issues in completing this work.
74 Background
On May 15, 2024, the City Council approved a construction services contract with Monterey Peninsula Engineering (MPE) for the Front Street Maintenance Project, totaling $3,916,245. During construction, the contractor encountered unforeseen conditions that led to additional change orders. The Council also approved change orders to enhance the project by adding more aesthetically appealing elements, such as decorative crosswalks and conduits for future tree lighting.

On November 6, 2024, City Council approved Change Order #1 with Monterey Peninsula Engineering (MPE) for a total not-to-exceed amount of $147,000 to install two 4-inch conduits at three selected locations along Front Street to provide future power to the city-owned parcels.

On December 4, 2024, City Council approved Change Order #2 with Monterey Peninsula Engineering (MPE) for a total not-to-exceed amount of $388,200 to cover the additional costs associated with the tree removal, to perform the transfer and application of the Asphalt Grindings, and the costs to install the stamped asphalt crosswalks.

Change Orders #3, #4, and #5 have been approved administratively utilizing the approved construction contingency to keep the project moving forward. Change Order #3 captured the remaining additional work that resulted in the installation of Tree Well Lighting Conduits and the addition of extra concrete work that resulted in trenching said lighting conduit. Change Order #4 captured the additional work that resulted from unforeseen conditions that were encountered when removing an existing storm drain (that was previously identified to have collapsed) at the intersection of Dixi St, the reconnection of the abandoned storm drain inlet, and lastly, the additional cost to replace the valve boxes to accommodate the new irrigation along Front Street.

Due to the safety issues regarding the storm drain inlets located on Front Street between Oak Street and Nestles Rd, Staff requested a contract change order from MPE to remove and replace the existing 11 storm drain inlets to be able to bring them up to grade and fix the significant dips currently witnessed.

Given the age of the surrounding infrastructure, salvaging the grates and frame will prove to be extremely difficult and may result in the need to have the storm drain inlets replaced regardless.

Considering MPE is already performing similar work under the ongoing Front Street Maintenance Project, Contract Change Order #5 captured the necessary work to make the repairs.

Review & Analysis
This Change Order #6 includes the additional scope of work to install wet-set truncated domes, additional bid item quantities, and work performed during this project beyond the original contract. A breakdown of the change order is as follows:

Quantity Increases - Bid Items #6 & #22 Remove Concrete Sidewalk $37,416 & Minor Concrete Sidewalk $62,658: These bid items quantities were increased to achieve safe and adequate transitions between sections of sidewalks to meet ADA and avoid creating any hazardous tripping conditions. Due to the existing sidewalk grades and the extremely poor condition of sidewalks, there was a need to go beyond the original plan to make it work.

Quantity Increases - Bid Items #23 Minor Concrete Driveway $43,248: This bid item quantity was increased to include three (3) additional ADA ramps to be installed at the intersection of Front St. & West St (two were installed at this location) and Front St. & Benito St. (one was installed at this location). The existing conditions found at both intersections did not meet current ADA requirements 75 (slopes required corrections). Considering this project was already performing similar work and these intersections are within the project limits, these three ADA ramps were added to the project to fully promote accessibility along the corridor.

Quantity Increases - Additional Driveway AC Patch (Time & Materials) $4,723: This bid item quantity was increased to remove and replace a section of the driveway at 273 Front St. to match the new driveway and sidewalk. The existing driveway was significantly higher than the new ADA sidewalk cross-section; therefore, additional work was authorized on a Time & Materials (T&M) basis to correct the driveway grades to provide a safe and drivable transition. The work included demolition and removal of existing asphalt and road base.

Apart from capturing additional costs associated with the work, Staff has requested that MPE complete the installation of wet-set truncated domes instead of surface-mounted truncated domes as originally contracted. EF&S, MPE’s concrete subcontractor, performed a mock-up at the corner of Kidder St. and Front St. Staff is concerned that the surface-mounted truncated domes are not recessed compared to the wet-set version. An example of this can be observed at the new access ramps along Front Street and those recently installed at the corner of Dixi St. Inadvertently, a lip is formed as the surface-mounted truncated dome rests on existing concrete rather than being set in wet concrete, which allows for a flush finish. Staff is worried that this lip creates an unintentional tripping hazard and does not deliver the same high-quality final product, both in terms of ADA compliance and visual aesthetics along the downtown core corridor, which is scheduled for four intersections to receive stamped asphalt crosswalks. The breakdown for this additional work is as follows:

Substitution to Wet-Set Truncated Domes – Bid Item 24 Detectable Warning Surface $48,048: This bid item was originally for the installation of surface-mounted truncated domes. However, as a result of the mockup and the unintentional tripping hazard it creates, surface-mounted truncated domes are being substituted with wet-set truncated domes at no additional cost. The only cost associated with this change results from the necessary means of removing and replacing concrete, for which a specified unit cost has already been established and utilized.

Therefore, Staff recommends the City Council consider and approve this Contract Change Order and a 20% Contingency to account for any unforeseen issues in completing this work.

Financial Considerations
This Contract Change Order shall be funded through the use of Measure under Capital Projects: 412- 0000-57000.
$3,729,757 – Original Construction Contract Amount
$186,488 – 5% Contingency
$147,600 – CCO #1 (Includes Contingency)
$388,200 – CCO #2 (Includes Contingency)
$ 45,944 – CCO #3 (Approved Administratively using the contingency previously approved by Council)$ $ 20,904 – CCO #4 (Approved Administratively using the contingency previously approved by Council)
$107, 250 – CCO #5 (Approved Administratively using the contingency previously approved by Council)
$205,703 – CCO #6 (This Change Order Including Contingency) $4,831,846 – New Construction Contract Amount
76 Resolution No. 6200
Exhibit A
Alternatives
Approve the resolution as presented; or
Modify the resolution; or
Do not approve the Resolution. This option is not recommended because existing surfacemounted truncated domes create tripping hazards and do not present a visually appealing solution for the downtown corridor.rridor.

Planning/CEQA
The proposed project is categorically exempt under Class 1 Existing Facilities, having met the qualifying criteria provided under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301. Class 1 consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. Section 15301 provides some, but does not limit the project scope to, examples of such projects, existing highways and streets, sidewalks, gutters, bicycle and pedestrian trails, and similar facilities (this includes road grading for the purpose of public safety and other alterations such as the addition of bicycle facilities, including but not limited to bicycle parking, bicycle-share facilities and bicycle lanes, transit improvements such as bus lanes, pedestrian crossings, street trees, and other similar alterations that do not create additional automobile lanes). As detailed above, the Front Street Maintenance Project would be categorized under this description.

Public Notice Requirements
None required.

TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Beatriz Trujillo, Community and Economic Development Director and Ariana Mora-Jacobo, Senior Planner
MEETING DATE: March 5, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 10.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and adopt Resolution No.6201, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad "Approving In-Kind City Services, Waiving Park Fee and Approving the Street Closure of Front Street Between Main Street and Kidder Street for the 2025 Small Business Development Center Day Celebration in Collaboration with the Soledad Community and Economic Development Department".

Executive Summary
The City of Soledad's Community and Economic Development Department (CED) is collaborating with the Central Coast Small Business Development Center (SBDC) for the 2025 SBDC Day Celebration. The primary goal of this event is to bring together South County businesses, entrepreneurs, and community leaders to acknowledge the vital role that SBDCs play in fostering economic growth and business success. The event is scheduled for April 5th, from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM, and will take place in Downtown Soledad along Front Street, extending from Main Street to Kidder Street, and in Cesar Chavez Park. CED Staff is requesting the closure of Front Street between Main and Kidder Streets, between 9:00 am and 3:00 pm, and a fee waiver for the use of Cesar Chavez Park.

Background
On December 6, 2023, the City of Soledad approved a partnership through Resolution No. 6030 with the Monterey County Business Council (MCBC) to establish a satellite office of the Small Business Development Center (SBDC) in South Monterey County. Funded by the Small Business Administration (SBA), the SBDC provides essential resources to support local small businesses, including business plan development, human resources assistance, and access to funding. The Soledad 87 satellite office aims to strengthen economic development by equipping business owners with the necessary tools to build and sustain successful enterprises.

To promote economic growth, the SBDC is organizing the SBDC Day Celebration, which is scheduled for April 5, 2025. This event will feature a business exposition, food trucks, entertainment, and craft vendors. On February 6, 2025, the City received a Temporary Land Use Permit (TUP) application, attached hereto as Exhibit A, from the Central Coast SBDC, in collaboration with the Community and Economic Development Department, to host this event.

The SBDC Day Celebration will be the first of its kind in Soledad. As noted in Exhibit A, the applicant has requested the closure of Front Street between Main Street and Kidder Street and permission to use Cesar Chavez Park for the event. A street closure is necessary to ensure pedestrian safety and facilitate food truck operations.

The application is being submitted to the City Council for review and consideration of approval due to the necessary street closures and the requirement for a waiver of the park reservation fee of $150.

According to Soledad Municipal Code 17.42.015, any requests for fee waivers or in-kind City services must be reviewed and approved by the City Council. Additionally, the event will require a noise permit and a special event permit, both of which have been reviewed and approved by the relevant City departments.

Review & Analysis
The Economic Development Division, in collaboration with the Central Coast SBDC and MCBC, is actively working to support business growth in South Monterey County. The SBDC Day Celebration aligns with the City's ongoing economic development efforts by connecting local businesses, promoting entrepreneurship, and engaging the community. This celebration will highlight the collective impact of SBDCs nationwide while showcasing the resilience, innovation, and achievements of our local small businesses and entrepreneurs.

The event is scheduled for April 5, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., with a street closure from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. for setup and cleanup. The business exposition will allow exhibitors to network, showcase their products and services, and establish business partnerships. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore and support local businesses, while additional attractions such as food trucks, entertainment, and craft vendors will encourage community participation.

The Public Works Department will assist with barricades, traffic signs, and other necessary equipment to ensure pedestrian safety and facilitate event operations, while the applicant will provide event security and traffic control. The Community and Economic Development Department (CED) will support the event through business outreach, coordination, and promotion of City economic development services. No additional assistance has been requested from CED. Since the event is cosponsored by the City and will be held at Cesar Chavez Park, staff recommends waiving the $150 park reservation fee.

To minimize disruptions for businesses along Front Street, the Economic Development Coordinator and SBDC will conduct outreach and ensure all vendors obtain required business licenses and health permits in compliance with local and state regulations. This event reflects the City’s commitment to fostering economic development and supporting local businesses.

Attendees can expect a variety of food and craft vendors and outdoor entertainment. The applicants, the 88 Resolution No. 6201
Exhibit A
SBDC and the Community and Economic Development Department, are seeking approval for the event.

Financial Considerations
The SBDC Day Celebration supports community interest by attracting and engaging local businesses in South Monterey County. The primary costs to the City include a $150 park reservation fee and in-kind services provided by the Economic Development Coordinator. The Public Works Department is expected to coordinate with the Community and Economic Development Department during the week to minimize additional staff costs for the Saturday event. This type of collaboration is critical in fostering access to economic development resources for our businesses and supporting growth.

Alternatives
Approve the Resolution as presented; or
Deny the Resolution of in-kind city services, waiving of park fee, and the street closure of Front Street and Kidder Street for the SBDC Day Celebration
Planning/CEQA
The proposed sponsorship and associated request for the temporary street closure, waiving of the park fee, and in-kind services are considered exempt under the CEQA Guidelines Section 15304 (e) Class 4 Minor Alteration to Land. Pursuant to CEQA minor temporary land use with minimal or no permanent effects on the environment, such as carnivals and Christmas tree sales, are exempt.

Partnerships:
 City of Soledad: The Society leases from the City the historic International Harvester Building to house its museum. The City also provides support for the weekly Farmers’ Markets. On numerous occasions the Society has provided the City with pictures, documents, maps, etc.
 Soledad Unified School District: The Society has a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the district. This allows the District to have classes either view displays at the museum or have traveling displays brought to the schools.  Monterey County Genealogical Society: This group is currently developing a genealogical record of all those buried in the Soledad and Gonzales cemeteries. We have been providing what information we have about those individuals.  Monterey County Historical Society and the Monterey County Office of Education, and the Monterey County Historical Advisory Commission: Collectively we are trying to collect pictures of the earliest schools in Monterey County and any ephemera connected to them. Monterey County was the beginning of public education in California, and if we don’t collect what we can now, that history will be lost. Many of the items that we have collected are in the display Early Schools of Monterey County at the Monterey County Office of Education.  Monterey County Historical Society (MCHS): In 2024 the Society donated duplicate artifacts or artifacts that do not belong in any of the Society’s collections to the Monterey County Historical Society. Attachment C Artifacts Donated to Partners lists the donated artifacts. In return the Monterey County Historical Society has 120

Page 18 of 38 ends

loaned artifacts for display in the Soledad Museum.  It has also referred to the Society people who have artifacts to donate that pertain to South Monterey County.  Attachment D is a letter from James Perry, MCHS Executive Director & Curator, that explains how the MCHS has helped grow the Society’s collection.  Greenfield Historical Society:  In 2024 the Society donated duplicate artifacts or artifacts that do not belong in any of the Society’s collections to the Greenfield Historical Society.  Attachment C Artifacts Donated to Partners lists the donated artifacts.
 Monterey County Agricultural and Rural Life Museum (MCARLM) in King City:  The Society is sharing information with MCARLM on the dairies of the Salinas Valley.  In addition, the Society donated duplicate artifacts or artifacts that do not belong in any of the Society’s collections to the MCARLM.  Attachment C Artifacts Donated to Partners lists the donated artifacts.
 John and Karen Jernigan Unofficial Historians for King City:  John Jernigan was co‐ author of the book King City (Images of America).  His current project is to locate all the historic stage stops in the Salinas Valley.  To help him in this project the Soledad Historical Society loaned Mr. Jernigan the Stage Coach Registry from the Los Coches Adobe.
 Fresno Historical Society:  This is a new partnership which began in 2024.  The Soledad Historical Society received several artifacts from the Jack Franscioni Family that did not pertain to the history of Soledad, but to the history of Fresno.  With the permission of the Franscioni Family, the Society donated these artifacts to the Fresno Historical Society.  Attachment C Artifacts Donated to Partners lists the donated artifacts.

Because of these partnerships the Society has received many requests for information in 2024. Attachment E Requests for Information 2024 is a detailed list of these requests.

Mr. Miguel Benon (Number 8 on Attachment E) requested information on the Braceros in Soledad for a class project. He passed the class and will receive a Master’s Degree in History from California State University Monterey Bay in May 2025. The Society has requested a copy of his project.

In addition to the Partnerships, the Society also receives requests for information because its collection is part of the Monterey County Free Libraries’ Monterey County Local Historical Directory of Archives and Resources. This online directory includes information about archival holdings. To find the Society’s holding go to the Monterey County website (countyofmonterey.gov). In the menu select Government and then select Department ▶ Library. From the Menu (upper left corner) of the MCFL web site, select Learn & Explore ▶ Local History ▶ Directory. Scroll down the Alphabetical List to the Soledad Historical Society.

Article 1, Section 6, Sub‐section 3 “3) provide Landlord with an annual report of all efforts to obtain grants and loans, including an accounting of any and all funds received and all improvements and renovations made or planned to be made to the premises in accordance with Section 9 of this Lease.” (Sections 7 through 10 below)

7. Efforts to Secure Grants and Loans
Grants
The Society has not applied for any grants in 2024. The goal was to apply for grants to pay for a new roof if the City Building Official deemed it is necessary. However, due to delays in getting the City Building Official to determine if a new roof is necessary, the Society was not able apply for any grants before the application deadlines. This highlights the need for the City Council to clearly define what the long‐term plans are for the Historical Society and its collection and for the International Harvester Showroom building.

Another goal that the Society has is to expand the museum by installing a metal building behind the existing museum. The size of the building will be approximately 50 feet by 50 feet. This building will have a permanent display on the Soledad Volunteer Fire Department and will feature the two historic fire trucks that the Society has. The building will have a restroom and additional storage space.

To accomplish this goal the Society has placed $100,200 into a restricted Capital Improvement fund. While this amount should be enough to put in a concrete slab and a building, it is not enough to add the restroom, insulation, windows, handicap access, storage areas, etc. The California Small Museum Grant Program would have been the perfect grant for the complete installation of this building.

Sadly, the California Small Museum Grant Program was not funded in 2024 due to State of California budget issues. It is unknown at this time if it will be funded for the 2025‐ 2026 fiscal year. The Society has for several years worked to meet the grant application criteria and it has been successful. Since 2021 it has requested that the City apply for this grant. The reason for the City and not the Historical Society applying for the grant is the City would be able to request the maximum of $500,000 because it has a track record of successfully completing large construction programs.

The Society has continued to request a meeting with decision makers to develop a plan for the museum. The Society has turned over architect drawings and construction plans to the staff that had been previously authorized and paid for by the City. However, we are still waiting for the City to decide what it wants to do long‐term with the museum.

Without this long‐term plan, it is difficult to move forward on applying for any grants that would significantly improve the museum facility.

Loans
At this time the Society does not foresee the need for loans. Since the Society does not own any property, loans would need to be unsecured loans at a higher interest rate. 122

Thus, the Society has determined that grants and fundraising events are better ways to secure needed funds.

This budget is approved by the board of directors at the start of the fiscal year in January.  If there are any changes to the budget during the fiscal year, these changes are also approved by the board of directors.  (See Attachment F: 2024 Budget Summary)
General Ledger:  The treasurer maintains a general ledger of all income and expenses.

Expenses (Purchase Order): The treasurer prepares a purchase order for all expenses.

The purchase order has detailed information about the expense and each purchase order has attached to it the receipt or invoice for the expense. The treasurer records the purchase order number, the check number, a brief description of the expense, and the amount of the expense in the General Ledger.

Income (Deposits Sheet): The treasurer prepares a deposit sheet for all income. The deposit sheet has detailed information about the income. The treasurer records the deposit sheet number, a brief description of the income, and the amount of income in the General Ledger.

Bank Statements: The treasurer reconciles the monthly bank statement with the General Ledger and records this information in the General Ledger.

Invoices: The treasurer sends invoices for services rendered by the Society to payers.

The invoices have detailed information about the services and the amounts due.

Currently only the Soledad Unified School District (SUSD) receives invoices in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that the Society has with the SUSD.

Taxes: The Society files Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Tax Form 990N, California Franchise Tax Board (FTB) Form 199N, and if needed California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) Sales and Use Tax Return.

Attorney General of California/Registry of Charities and Fundraisers: The Society files with the Attorney General and the Registry of Charities and Fundraisers an Annual Registration Renewal Fee Report (Form RRF‐1) and an Annual Treasurer’s Report (Form CT‐TR‐1). These reports are not due until May 15, 2024 and 123

Page 21 of 38 ends

cannot be filed until after forms IRS 990N and FTB 199N are filed. Thus, Attachments G and H are drafts. (See Attachments G and H) After May 1, 2025 the City may view the filed and accepted RRF‐1 and CT‐TR forms at the Registry of Charities and Fundraisers website: https://oag.ca.gov/charities/content/info The ID Number (State Charity Registration Number) for The Soledad Historical Society is CT0268804.

9. Improvements Made:

In 2024 the following improvements were made to the museum. The total cost for these improvements was $9,672
 Repaired the termite damage to the front of the building.  Repainted the exterior areas that have red paint.
 Replaced the large 72” x 121” window that was cracking due a BB hole.

10. Planned Improvements:

A new item for 2025 is 3b in the list below: Replace the water pipe, cap the gas pipe and replace the sewer pipe.

Water Pipe Replacement: The construction of the apartment units to the east of the museum may make the replacement of these pipes more difficult once those units are completed. The water pipe is an old galvanized pipe installed around 1947.

Underground galvanized pipe last around 60 to 70 years. Clearly this pipe should be replaced.

Gas Pipe: The Society does not use any gas. The gas meter was turned off years ago. The threat of fire from any gas appliances is just too great. The gas heater in the building has not been used since the Society signed the first lease with the City in 2010. The City may wish to cap the gas pipe at the street and have the meter removed.

Sewer Pipe Replacement: It is not known if the sewer is in the same location as the water and gas lines. If it is, then it should be replaced. Due to the age of the building, the sewer pipe is probably made of cast iron. Like the water pipe, the cast iron sewer pipe lasts about 60 to 70 years.

Planned Improvements List: This is a working list that is updated each year. The column headings are as follows:

Priority: Priority of the improvement based on need, funds, and approval by the City.

Responsibility and Improvements:

Responsibility: The party responsible for making the repair and/or improvement is indicated by the word in bold print at the start of the description: City if the City of Soledad is responsible and Society if the Soledad Historical Society is responsible. Responsibility is specified in the September 1.2022 Amended and Restated Lease Agreement between the City of Soledad and The Soledad Historical Society Section 7 Repairs and Maintenance. Under the previous 124

Page 22 of 38 ends

lease agreement the Soledad Historical Society paid for several improvements that were the responsibility of the City: weatherized and installed a roll‐up door on the north wall, brought the interior wiring and lighting system up to code, installed a pedestrian door and an emergency lighting system, painted the exterior of the building, and made two roof repairs due to leaks.

Improvements: A brief description of the planned repairs and/or improvements.

Start Date: The estimated start date of the improvement. In the list below, the start dates for the projects have been updated from previous reports to reflect the current status of the planned improvements. The Society desires to keep the museum open for the Farmers’ Market (April to October) and school visits. Thus, major work such as the roof and repairing the floor has to be done at times when the museum is closed to the public.

Funding: The funding information matches the budget categories of the Society’s Budgets for the year indicated by the Start Date. Footnotes explain the funding information in more detail.

Status: The current status of the project. For projects that are done, the amount expended by the Society is shown.

Additional funds will come from budget item 2003 Capital Improvement Funds. 7 The cost of installing the bathroom will depend on the location. There may be insufficient funds in budget item 2003 for this project. Donations and/or grants may be needed for this improvement. 8 The date of this improvement cannot be determined at this time. Although the Society has sufficient funds to install a building on a concrete slab, this building would not be finished on the inside and would lack restrooms, etc. Thus, additional funds are needed. In addition the Society must obtain the approval of the City to install this building.

Requests for Information 2024

1. The National Park Service has a picture from the 1950s of Soledad residents attending the yearly picnic at Pinnacles. The Park Service wants the Society to identify as many of the people as possible and get that information back to it.

2. The Greenfield Historical Society asked a representative to meet with them on January 25th to help them as they set up their museum/visitor center with the City of Greenfield.

Those meetings may be on‐going for a while.

3. Tim and Ed Schmidt requested help in returning an artifact to the Soledad Mission. The Society made contact with Carlene Bell to see if they could contact her as a way to return the artifact. She approved and her contact information was given to Tim and Ed.

4. A gentleman called City Hall requesting information on the Navy jet that was used as playground equipment at Vosti Park. The Society made contact with the gentleman, and provided him with the information that the Society had.

5. Mayor Velasquez requested that the Society research the Bee story on the naming of the Skinner‐Serrano Bridge. She also wanted any information on how the two men were killed in action during the Vietnam War. The Society supplied her with the information.

6. Deputy Chief Lombardi requested a letter of support for the Soledad Police Department’s Active Bystandership for Law Enforcement (ABLE) application. The Society submitted the letter.

7. Mayor Velasquez asked the Society to find a colored picture of the It’s Happening in Soledad sign. The Society found a colored picture, had a copy made, and sent it to City Hall for her to collect.

8. Miguel Benon of Greenfield is working on a master’s thesis on the Bracero Program.

The Society was able to provide him with locations of local Bracero camps, access to original photographs of the Bracero Bus fire at Palm and Third in 1953, and access to original death investigation reports of two of the men who perished.

9. Soledad Community Engagement Manager Jesus Valenzuela asked for information and artifacts that the City could use on August 29th to honor the raising of the POW/MIA flag. The Society provided him with a list of World War II and Vietnam veterans that were Killed in Action (KIA) in those wars. The Society provided him with a copy of the Fallen Comrade Ceremony. The Society also loaned him the following artifacts from its collection: two flags, one of which was given to the Society with a note from a mom who said it was on her son’s World War I casket, and a World War II military issue New Testament owned by Edward Franscioni who fought at the Battle of the Bulge. The Society also loaned the City bunting and other patriotic decorations.

10. Gonzales High Band instructor found music for the school’s first school song and asked if the Society had the words. The 1920 Yearbook is on display at MCOE. When the display is changed, the Society will provide him with a copy of the words. 133

SUBJECT:

Resolution No. 6205, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad Approving Amendment No. 3 of the Summary of Job Classifications and Salary Schedule for Fiscal Year 2024/25 TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Megan Hunter, City Manager
MEETING DATE: March 5, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 12.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and adopt Resolution No.6205, “Approving Amendment No. 3 of the Summary of Job Classifications and Salary Schedule for Fiscal Year 2024/25”.

Executive Summary
The contract for Don Wilcox, Public Works Director expired on January 11, 2025. During discussions regarding his contract renewal, Mr. Wilcox requested that his compensation be increased commensurate with his counterparts in South County. The Human Resources Manager conducted a salary evaluation, and it was discovered that the Public Works Director in Soledad is the lowest paid in South County despite overseeing a much larger department and a tertiary water reclamation facility.

Thus, it is recommended that the Public Works Director Salary be increased by 8.789% to align with the other South County jurisdictions. The salary of the Community and Economic Development Director position will remain unchanged.

Background
The City is required to adopt a Summary of Job Classifications and Salary Schedule each year, which reflects all Council-approved classifications and compensation. Amendments to the Schedule may occur during the fiscal year and are submitted to the Council for approval. CalPERS requires a current Summary of Job Classifications and Salary Schedule.

On December 4, 2024, the City Council approved the first amendment to the Salary Schedule in FY 24/25 for the Water Resources Manager after many months of unsuccessfully recruiting for this position. On December 18, 2024, the City Council approved the second amendment to the Salary 165
Schedule to increase part-time seasonal positions to $16.50 per hour in line with the new California minimum wage effective January 1, 2025.

Review & Analysis
At the June 19th meeting, the City Council adopted a Salary Schedule as part of the FY 2024/25 Budget. Following this meeting on July 17, 2024, the City Council approved various labor contracts resulting in COLA increases for all employees, including the Executive Management, which received a 4% increase. Like Soledad, most jurisdictions throughout California have had to offer generous COLAs just to keep up with inflation and remain competitive in the workforce.

Although most salaries in Soledad are on par with South County's, engineering salaries continue to lag behind. As a result, the City adjusted the Engineering salaries in 2023, which also bumped the compensation of the Community and economic development and Public Works Directors. Historically, the Community and economic development and Public Works Director salaries have been tied together.

Today, recruiting and hiring training engineers is increasingly challenging. Cities must raise salaries and offer significant financial incentives to hire engineers. The City of Soledad has struggled to fill vacancies, resorting to underfilling positions with individuals who do not have their Professional Engineering (PE) license. Mr. Wilcox is the only staff member with his PE. Moreover, cities have started offering higher salaries to their Public Works Directors and City Engineers, bringing them closer to the compensation of Chiefs of Police. Jurisdictions no longer link the salaries of the Public Works and Community and Economic Directors. For the first time in over a decade, the City of Salinas has increased the salary of the Public Works Director, resulting in a pay increase of over 8% compared to the Community and Economic Development Director. This highlights the reality that hiring and retaining engineers necessitates offering higher salaries.

The Human Resources Manager also audited the salaries of the County's public works director and similar agencies with their own wastewater treatment plants. Below is a list of comparable jurisdictions.

City Base Salary (Top Step) Certification/Incentive

GONZALES $166,152 $48,044 $214,196

SOLEDAD -
PROPOSED 8.789%

INCREASE
$202,997 $10,150 $213,147
The proposed base pay remains lower than that of King City and Greenfield. Even with the 5% 166
Resolution No. 6205
Exhibit A
certification pay for possessing a PE license, the Public Works Director would still earn less than the Director in Gonzales. This salary is modest, especially considering that in Soledad, the Public Works Director oversees a Water Reclamation Facility (Wastewater Treatment Plant) and manages the largest department, which includes more than 35 employees.

Staff recommends an 8.789% salary increase for the Public Works Director, which will amend the Public Works Director Salary Range from Range 91 to Range 96 of the Executive Management Salary Schedule. This will ensure parity and competitiveness with neighboring jurisdictions. If approved, the increase would be retroactive to Mr. Wilcox’s contract expiration on January 11, 2025.

Financial Considerations
The fiscal impact on the FY 2024/25 Budget will be approximately $8,600. However, significant salary savings have been realized due to vacant positions. With the recent hiring of the Water Resources Manager, the Public Works Director has been able to take on tasks previously handled by Harris and Associates. Staff augmentation support costs averaged between $16,000 and $20,000 per month.

Therefore, although this represents an additional expense, it will be offset by a reduction in consulting costs for Harris and Associates.

Alternatives
Adopt the resolution.

Modify the resolution.

Do not adopt the resolution.

Planning/CEQA
The proposed amendment to the FY 24/25 Salary Schedule is not considered a project for the purposes of CEQA and has no potential to result in either a direct or indirect impact to the environment.

Public Notice Requirements

TO: Honorable Mayor Anna Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Beatriz Trujillo, Interim Community Development Director and Tencia C. Vargas, Economic Development Coordinator
MEETING DATE: March 5, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 1.

Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council consider and adopt Resolution No. 6202, “Approving a Professional Services Agreement Between the City of Soledad and The Arts Council for Monterey County in an Amount Not to Exceed $8,700 for the Fire Apparatus Bay Arts Mural Project and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Said Agreement” and provide any input into themes for the proposed design.

Executive Summary
The Community and Economic Development Department has been working closely with the Arts Council for Monterey County (“Arts Council”) to enhance the city’s public spaces with artwork, specifically through the installation of murals on public buildings. Phase I of the Public Arts Mural Project was successfully completed in November 2024, with three murals now displayed on Front Street. Phase II of the public art installation consists of a mural for the Fire Aerial Apparatus Bay, which will house the new ladder truck. The proposed agreement outlines consulting services for the project management, artist(s) fees, and supplies, with a total budget of $48,700. Supervisor Lopez approved $40,000 in County funding for this project so the City's portion of the agreement is only $8,700. Staff is also requesting initial Council input on themes for the design of the mural.

Background
To enhance the vibrancy of our city and promote public art, staff has partnered with the Arts Council for Monterey County. This collaboration sought to incorporate compelling public art into the Front Street Corridor, as well as within key public buildings across the City. The proposed mural installation at the new Aerial Apparatus Bay presents an ideal opportunity, as it faces Bill Ramus Park, offering a 172
prominent and highly visible location for the artwork to be admired by both residents and visitors alike.

The proposed location is shown in the attachment.

Review & Analysis
Phase II of the proposed public art installation will be placed at a pivotal public building nearing completion—the long-awaited Aerial Apparatus Bay (App Bay), which will house the new ladder truck.

This significant investment in the community will enhance and strengthen our fire services. This is an ideal opportunity to celebrate this important milestone. The building, which faces Bill Ramus Park, provides a prime location for the mural, adding vibrancy to the space while allowing residents and visitors to enjoy the artwork.

The mural will showcase Soledad’s vibrant culture, history, and natural beauty, highlighting the fire department's dedication, bravery, and essential role in the community. This mural aims to embody the same spirit as those on Front Street, capturing the essence of service and resilience that characterizes the Fire Department’s contributions to the community. Staff is also requesting input from the Council on the initial design of the mural during the meeting. This is one of the reasons this has been added to the agenda as a "business item".

To ensure the project's success, the Arts Council will continue to play a key role by providing consultation and managing the public art installation. It is anticipated that the design process for Phase II will follow the same approach as Phase I. The difference is that staff will use the Council meeting to solicit input from the Councilmembers instead of conducting individual interviews. This change will facilitate dialogue among the Councilmembers, ensuring everyone is aligned, and help expedite the process so that the mural can be completed by the time of the ribbon-cutting for the new apparatus bay.

The City will maintain its outreach to local artists and hopes to also engage students from the Soledad Unified School District to participate in the mural installation. Phase II is expected to be completed within three months.

Staff contacted Supervisor Lopez regarding the mural project to request support. The Arts Council informed us that Supervisor Lopez has approved a grant of $40,000. Given the level of County support, Staff will also coordinate the final design with Supervisor Lopez, who generously supported this effort.

Financial Considerations
As previously mentioned, the total cost for the mural's installation is $48,700, which was based on the size of the wall. Supervisor Chris Lopez, through the County of Monterey, has awarded $40,000 in funding to cover most of the cost of the mural. As a result, the City of Soledad will only be responsible for the remaining balance of $8,700, which will be paid from the professional services line item in the Planning and Community Development FY 24-25 Budget.

Alternatives
Adopt the proposed Resolution which will authorize the City Manager to execute the professional services agreement with the Arts Council for Monterey County.

Deny or take no action on the professional services agreement. Such action would prevent any further progress on the proposed public art on the new Aerial Apparatus Bay and the use of the grant allocation designated for this mural project.

Planning/CEQA
173
Resolution No. 6202
Exhibit A - Arts Council Agreement
Location of Mural
The proposed Public Arts Mural Project is exempt from CEQA pursuant to a Class I categorical exemption (Sections 15301), which exempts the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use. The project involves painting murals on a newly constructed building and no other construction or ground disturbance activities are planned.

Resolution No. 6203, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad Approving and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Professional Services Agreement with AMEG Enterprises, LLC for a Total Not to Exceed $207,100 for Design Work Associated with the Interim Shelter Facility Project at 990 Los Coches Rd, and
Resolution No. 6206, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad Approving and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Contract with AMEG Enterprises, LLC for a Total Not to Exceed $820,082 for the Purchase and Installation of Modular Units and Related Development Tasks for t of the Interim Shelter Facility Project at 990 Los Coches Rd Executive Summary
The City of Soledad is advancing the development of a temporary interim shelter facility at 990 Los Coches to provide immediate housing for individuals experiencing homelessness and currently residing in dangerous and potentially harmful living conditions in riverbeds in and adjacent to the City. Funding for said project is being provided through an Encampment Resolution Funding Round Grant obtained through a collaborative effort with Monterey County. Prefabricated modular units were identified as the most effective solution based on cost, efficiency, and statewide best practices. Following a thorough 192
evaluation of available temporary housing options and providers, staff has identified AMEG Enterprises, LLC as the preferred provider due to its competitive pricing, in-house architectural and engineering services, energy-efficient design, built-in fire sprinklers, and low maintenance requirements. Staff recommends entering into a Professional Services Agreement for the design and permitting of the Project, and a separate Contract for the purchase and installation of the modular units and utility connections. The Project is statutorily exempt from CEQA, allowing for expedited implementation. Approval of these agreements will ensure a cost-effective, safe, and sustainable temporary shelter solution while maximizing the impact of ERF-3 grant funding.

Background
In March 2023, the Encampment Resolution Funding Round 3 (ERF-3) was authorized through Senate Bill (SB) 197 (Chapter 70, Statutes of 2022) and enacted under Chapter 7 of Part 1 of Division 31 of the California Health and Safety Code (HSC) (Sections 50250 et seq.). The ERF Program was established to enhance collaboration between the California Interagency Council on Homelessness (CAL-ICH), local jurisdictions, and Continuums of Care (CoCs). Its primary objectives are to ensure the safety and well-being of individuals experiencing homelessness in encampments, provide grants to local jurisdictions and CoCs to address critical encampment concerns and transition individuals into stable housing, and promote a data-driven, coordinated approach to resolving encampment issues.

On January 17, 2024, the City Council authorized City staff to collaborate with Monterey County in developing and submitting an ERF-3 application for the Salinas River/Soledad Encampment. The County submitted the grant application on January 31, 2024, and on April 18, 2024, received notification from CAL-ICH of its intent to award $4,726,964 for the project plan related to the Salinas River/Soledad Encampment. As part of this collaboration, the County sub-granted $2,691,081.60 to the City to provide services and facilitate the development of a temporary interim shelter facility.

To advance the development of the temporary shelter facility, City and County staff evaluated three prefabricated modular unit providers, recognizing this as the most efficient and effective model for addressing the City’s needs. After further review and discussion, staff identified AMEG Enterprises, LLC (AMEG) as the provider best suited to meet the City’s specific requirements and constraints.

All of the aforesaid is in keeping with action taken by the City Council on February 6, 2019, whereby the Council, citing to the existence of the unhoused population in the incorporated and unincorporated areas of Monterey County, adopted Resolution No. 5474 “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad, State of California, Declaring a Shelter Crisis Pursuant to SB 850 (Chapter 48, Statutes of 2018 and Government Code Section 8698.2).” Such declarations serve to acknowledge the existence of a situation in which a significant number of people are without the ability to obtain shelter, resulting in a threat to their health and safety, and allow a city to take action to suspend the application of provisions of state and/or local regulatory statutes and regulations to the extent such statutes and regulations hinder or delay the mitigation of the effects of the shelter crisis.

Due to the fact that problems and challenges associated with finding shelter for the unhoused in Monterey County have only increased since the time of the City’s adoption of its initial Declaration, with recent Monterey County Point-in-Time homeless counts indicating that there has been a significant increase in unhoused individuals in the County and the City, the Council adopted a restated Shelter Crisis Declaration via Resolution No. 6198 on February 19, 2025. The 2025 Declaration notes that the current number of unhoused individuals in Monterey County and the City far outpaces the number of available existing shelter beds, transitional housing, or permanent supportive housing units, and points out that the number of established homeless encampments have continued to increase throughout Monterey County and in parts of the City of Soledad and adjacent unincorporated property, including along riverbeds. Unhoused persons living in such encampments are exposed to crime, fire, risk of death and injury, exposure to weather and conditions of both extreme cold and heat, lack of adequate sanitation and debris services, and other conditions that are detrimental to their health and 193
safety. Riverbed encampments also create potential adverse environmental impacts on adjacent agricultural properties.

Review & Analysis
The City of Soledad has identified 990 Los Coches as the temporary interim shelter facility site. While this City-owned undeveloped property has many attributes that make it is ideal for the location of temporary housing facilities, the property present several challenges, particularly regarding utility access, with Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) regulations for electricity service being the most significant. Based on successful interim shelter models throughout the state, City staff determined that prefabricated modular units would best meet the City's needs. After establishing this approach, staff engaged with three providers and received two quotes. In compliance with the City’s Shelter Crisis Declaration, City staff evaluated potential providers, following key factors:

Cost-effectiveness
Energy-efficient heating and cooling systems
Modular unit lifespan & built-in Fire Sprinklers
Low Maintenance
Ability to repurpose the modular units
City staff recommends AMEG as the selected provider because the company offers professional design services, durable and cost-effective modular units, and utility installation. City staff recommends entering into the following two agreements with AMEG:

Professional ServicesAgreement (ExhibitA)
By this service contract, AMEG will offer comprehensive in-house architectural and engineering services, ensuring that the site is designed to accommodate the proposed layout efficiently and effectively. Their team, led by a California-licensed architect, provides expertise across multiple engineering disciplines, including electrical, mechanical, structural, and civil engineering. These services will result in a complete set of plans necessary to secure all required permits while adhering to the latest California Building Code standards. AMEG’s team has direct knowledge of the modular units’ dimensions and utility hookup specifications, eliminating potential coordination issues and streamlining the permitting and installation process. This integrated approach will not only reduce costs but should also ensure a faster, more efficient project timeline. The complete proposed scope of services is attached as Attachment A.

Public Works Contract (Exhibit B)
City staff is recommending approval of a separate Contract with AMEG for the purchase and installation of modular units, including all necessary utility connections. This recommendation is based on the following key factors:

Cost-effectiveness – AMEG provided the most competitive price quote, ensuring the City maximizes its grant funding while delivering a high-quality shelter solution.

Energy-efficient heating and cooling systems - AMEG is the only provider capable of installing all units with AC and heating systems while maintaining energy consumption below 400 amps. This is a critical requirement, as PG&E’s temporary power pool cannot exceed 400 amps. AMEG’s solution ensures compliance with this restriction, preventing costly delays and complications in securing electrical service.. Modular unit lifespan & built-in Fire Sprinklers – AMEG’s modular units can be prefabricated with built-in fire sprinklers, enhancing safety while minimizing installation time.

Additionally, with proper maintenance, these units have a lifespan of up to 80 years, making them a long-term investment for the City.

Low Maintenance – AMEG’s units are designed with readily available materials and 194
Resolution No. 6203
Resolution No. 6206

Exhibit B

Attachment B
components that can be sourced from stores like Lowe’s or Home Depot. Unlike other providers that require proprietary parts available only through the manufacturer, AMEG’s approach significantly reduces maintenance costs and ensures easy repairs.

Ability to repurpose the modular units – AMEG’s modular units are constructed with materials that are easy to clean, sanitize, and repurpose. Once the ERF-3 grant term is complete in 2027, these units can be reused for future City projects, further advancing Soledad’s long-term goals and priorities.

By selecting AMEG, the City will secure a cost-efficient, durable, and adaptable solution that aligns with project requirements and long-term sustainability. This proposed Contract will ensure timely and effective implementation of the Interim Shelter Facility Project while maximizing the impact of available funding. The complete scope of proposed services is attached as Attachment B.

Financial Considerations
The proposed agreements will be fully funded by the ERF-3 grant administered by the Community and Economic Development Department (CED). CED will continue to coordinate with the City’s Finance and Legal Departments to ensure full regulatory compliance.

Alternatives

1. Authorize the execution of the Professional Services Agreement and Public Works Contract between the City of Soledad and AMEG Enterprises, LLC.

2. Do not authorize the execution of the Professional Services Agreement and Public Works Contract between the City of Soledad and AMEG Enterprises, LLC, and provide further direction to staff. Staff do not recommend this alternative as it would continue to delay the development of the interim shelter facility.

Planning/CEQA
The City has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), CEQA Guidelines Section 15378. In 2024, SB 1395 established the development of Low Barrier Navigation Centers such as the instant project as ministerial actions, obviating the need for CEQA analysis.

Moreover, per Government Code Section 8698.4(a), projects undertaken by a city during a declared shelter crisis to provide emergency housing are statutorily exempt from CEQA. This exemption allows local governments to expedite the development of temporary shelters without undergoing lengthy environmental review processes.

Public Notice Requirements
No public hearing is required

SUBJECT: Receive a Presentation on the 60% Plans of the West Street Road Diet and Complete Streets Project
TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Don Wilcox, Public Works Director and Alex Ramos, Assistant Engineer MEETING DATE: March 5, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 3.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad receive a presentation regarding the West Street Road Diet and Complete Streets Project and provide input on the improvements in 60% Plans.

Executive Summary
As previously mentioned at the award for the design of this project, Staff has created this presentation to inform the City Council of the recently completed 60% Plans produced by MNS Engineers on the West Street Road Diet and Complete Streets Project. Staff is requesting input from the City Council on the proposed improvements thus far for consideration in the final submittal of the project plans.

Background
In July 2023, City Staff prepared an application for the West Street Road Diet and Complete Streets Project identified in the Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP) for a Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) Competitive Grant from the Transportation Agency of Monterey County (TAMC) to improve multimodal mobility for all types of roadway user on West Street between Front Street and Gabilan Drive.

On August 31, 2023, the City of Soledad received an Award Notification from TAMC in the amount of $2,758,000 for Soledad’s West Street Road Diet and Complete Streets Project as part of the RSTP Competitive Grant Program. The City of Soledad has already entered into a Master Funding Agreement between the City and TAMC that was executed on May 31, 2023. The project completion date is August 22, 2026.

The last project to receive an award for RSTP Competitive Grant Program funding was the City’s 2018 Metz Road Traffic Calming Project. The project aimed to improve traffic safety, relieve AM/PM traffic congestion, and provide a safer environment for pedestrians around the two elementary schools in the 228
area.

On March 6, 2024, the City of Soledad City Council approved a consulting services agreement with MNS Engineers, Inc. for the design and construction management for the West Street Road Diet and Complete Streets Project in an amount not to exceed of $856,075.

As part of the RSTP Competitive Grant application requirements, the goal is to make West Street much safer in the form of a road diet in which the number of travel lanes is reduced from its current four lanes down to two lanes, buffered bike lanes facilities along the corridor, hardscape infrastructure in the form of bulb-outs (curb extensions) to reduce the speed of vehicles traveling through this section, a landscaped median, and improved pavement conditions and markings. Additionally, sidewalks and curb ramps were assessed as part of this project’s design, and deficient sidewalks or non-ADA compliant access ramps are also included to be addressed as part of this project in an attempt to fully achieve an accessible and comfortable for all types of roadway users (pedestrians, motorists, and bicyclists).

Review & Analysis
Staff recently received the completed 60% plans for the West Street Road Diet and Complete Streets Project. As previously mentioned during the award for design services on this project, Staff is bringing back this item as a presentation to inform City Council of the proposed infrastructure improvements programmed to be incorporated as part of this project. Staff is encouraging the City Council to receive this presentation and provide input on the improvements proposed in the 60% plans so that the City Staff may consider and implement them towards completing the design plans.

Financial Considerations
On August 31, 2023, the City of Soledad was awarded the RSTP Competitive Grant in the amount of $2,758,000, which is funding this project.

Alternatives
Deem informative presentation as received with no input; or Deem the informative presentation received and provide City Staff with feedback & input.

Planning/CEQA
The West Street Complete Street Project has been determined to be categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines in accordance with Title 14, Chapter 3, Article 19, Section 15301, Class 1 – Existing Facilities, Section 15302, Class 2 – Replacement or Reconstruction and Section 15303, Class 3 – New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures.

Class 1 consists of minor alterations of existing facilities involving negligible or no expansion of use.

Class 2 involves the reconstruction of existing facilities with existing facilities involving negligible or no expansion of capacity. Class 3 consists of construction of limited number of new, small facilities or structures. The project as described above would result in a reduction in travel lanes to allow for a buffered bike lane, but with no change to curb lines and would not add capacity. Funding would allow for the reconstruction of West Street, which is an existing facility, but with no changes to capacity.

Public Notice Requirements
None required.

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 6204, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad Approving the State Legislative Platform for 2025-2026 TO: Honorable Mayor Anna Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Jesus Valenzuela, Community Engagement Manager
MEETING DATE: March 5, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 4.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council consider and adopt Resolution No.6204, "Approving the State Legislative Platform for 2025-2026".

Executive Summary
Townsend Public Affairs has presented a Legislative Platform to better prepare the City of Soledad for engaging with State representatives (see Exhibit A). This Legislative Platform will guide the City in the State legislative process and reflect the City Council’s stance on current and future issues that may directly or indirectly affect Soledad. It is important to note that the contract with Townsend Public Affairs focuses specifically on legislation from the State of California. The Legislative Subcommittee recommended this be presented to the Council for approval.

In addition to approving this Legislative Platform, it is recommended that the City Council consider providing a letter of support for State Assembly Bill 49 (Muratsuchi) regarding entry by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) into school sites and daycare centers. The City Manager can prepare the letter under the Mayor's and Councilmembers' signatures.

Background
The City of Soledad first adopted a Legislative Platform during the Council meeting on March 1, 2017.

This resolution established the City’s 2017 State and Federal Legislative Action Program (Exhibit B).

The resolution authorized staff to respond to legislative issues affecting the City through letters signed by the City Manager or relevant Department Head, as may be recommended by the League of California Cities, provided that the positions taken in these letters are consistent with the priorities identified in the proposed platform and subsequent resolutions.

In 2022, the City of Soledad contracted Townsend Public Affairs for lobbying assistance with the State 237
of California. Since then, the Council has taken a more active role in directing legislative priorities and has instructed staff to collaborate with Townsend Public Affairs to establish a Legislative Subcommittee and a Legislative Platform. The Legislative Subcommittee was formed in late 2024 and convened in October 2024, December 2024, and February 2025. The Legislative Platform was presented to the Legislative Subcommittee in February.

Review & Analysis
The 2025-2026 City of Soledad’s Legislative Platform (Exhibit A) outlines the City Council's stance on key issues that reflect community goals and relevant policies. City staff, with assistance from policy consultants, will track bills introduced in the California Legislature. They will also keep an eye on opinions from the California League of Cities and will heed their recommendations when those align with the Legislative Platform. This Platform provides guidance to Staff and enables the City Council to respond promptly in support of or opposition to bills and other legislative or administrative actions when necessary.

The Legislative Platform, crafted by Townsend, comprises nine categories: Unhoused Populations, Housing/Affordable Housing, Behavioral Health, Fiscal Sustainability/Economic Development, General Infrastructure, Public Safety, Climate Resiliency, Parks and Recreation, and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. These categories are informed by discussions with the Legislative Subcommittee and previous feedback from the larger Council body. All details regarding the platform can be found in Exhibit A.

Moreover, the Platform facilitates communication between Staff, the Council, and State representatives. It will continue to evolve as the Legislative Subcommittee meets bi-monthly and new issues emerge.

In addition to approving this Legislative Platform, it is recommended that the City Council consider providing a letter of support for State Assembly Bill 49 (Muratsuchi). Assembly Bill 49 establishes protocols regarding entry by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) into school sites and daycare centers, requiring that any such entry be predicated on the presentation of valid identification, a written statement of purpose, and a valid judicial warrant, along with prior approval from designated educational or childcare officials. The Council may direct the City Manager to send out a letter of support for AB 49 consistent with our ongoing work around immigration.

Financial Considerations
The funding for Townsend Public Advocates has already been allocated in the budget. Therefore, there are no new financial considerations for this item.

Alternatives
Approve the platform as presented; or
Approve the platform with modifications; or
Reject the platform and provide other direction to Staff.

Planning/CEQA
The adoption of a resolution of the City Council approving a legislative platform for 2025 is not considered a project for the purposes of CEQA and has no potential to result in either a direct or 238

CITY OF SOLEDAD

LEGISLATIVE PLATFORM
2025 - 2026
Purpose of the Legislative Platform
This document serves as the City of Soledad’s guide to engaging in the State legislative process.

The 2025-2026 City of Soledad’s Legislative Platform represents the City Council’s position on current or future issues that have the potential to directly or indirectly impact the City.

EXHIBIT B
2017 State and Federal Platform
City Local Control
Local control is a core tenet for the City of Soledad. When proposed legislation or regulation has the potential to erode local control, City action is taken:

1. Oppose any legislative attempts to restrict local authority or decision-making.

2. Oppose legislation that requires cities to use district-based elections.

3. Monitor California Medical Marijuana Safety and Regulation Act and Adult Use of Marijuana Act including active exploration and analysis of local and state regulatory authority.

4. Support legislation that updates both the Brown Act and Public Records Act regarding electronic records and activities that support local decision-making without significant fiscal impact and new regulations that require staff resources.

5. Oppose legislation that requires or expands State involvement in City financial audits, fiscal monitoring, general oversight, or assistance by the State Treasurer, State Controller or other state agencies.

6. Monitor 2017 State ballot initiatives for local control impacts.

7. Support a wording change in the Communications Act of 1934 that removes the distinction between “capital” and “operating” funds in order to provide more local control for community television stations in the use of their public, educational and government (PEG) channel fees with no rise in taxes or a reduction in revenue to the cable industry.

Fiscal Stability
Fiscal stability and financial independence is necessary to provide desired services and programs for residents and local businesses. City Council policy decisions direct staff to ensure the City’s long-term financial stability. Unexpected diversion of local funds by the state or federal government erodes the ability of a city to plan and budget for short and long-term service needs.

1. Oppose legislation that imposes unfunded or inadequate State mandates.

2. Monitor legislation regarding major revisions to property taxes, sales taxes, use taxes, transient occupancy taxes or other tax code sections.

3. Monitor legislation that regulates and/or taxes shared economy services like Uber or Lyft for transportation or Airbnb for lodging.

4. Support the federal Marketplace Fairness Act that would allow states and local governments to require that online merchants charge sales taxes on remote purchases.

5. Monitor legislation regarding new fees or other revenue-enhancements.

6. Oppose legislation that reduces or eliminates payments to cities for use of property and rights-of-way for telecommunications.

7. Support legislation that provides sustainable and secure public pensions and other postretirement benefits to ensure responsive and affordable public service.

8. Support legislation that streamlines the Workers’ Compensation system. 246
Housing, Planning and Sustainability
Land use planning and diverse housing opportunities coupled with environmental stewardship, mandatory reductions in greenhouses gases, emissions, solid waste generation, and energy consumption are vital to a community’s quality of life.

1. Support housing legislation that promotes the development and enhancement of safe and decent workforce, sustainable, and accessible housing within the City for all economic segments of the population as long as they do not create an unfunded mandate or conflict with local land use authority and financial stability.

2. Support legislation that increases financial assistance to cities, non-profit organizations, and local partnerships to provide affordable, transitional, special needs and emergency housing to the homeless, seniors, veterans, and people with special needs.

3. Support legislation that increases financial assistance to cities, non-profit organizations, and local partnerships to provide and promote self-empowerment for homeless individuals or families through counseling, job training, and other related services.

4. Support land use patterns that maintain safe residential neighborhoods, bolster economic prosperity, preserve open space, and enhance overall quality of life.

5. Oppose state or federal efforts to further erode local government authority regarding the location of cellular towers or transmission sites.

6. Support funding and incentives for smart growth and sustainable development.
