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

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and adopt Resolution No.6207, “Approving a Facility Use Fee Waiver for the Lideres Campesinas de Soledad for the Use of the Soledad Community Center for their Día de Niño Event”.

Executive Summary
Staff recommends that the City Council approve a facility use fee waiver for the Lideres Campesinas de Soledad for the use for the Soledad Community on April 26, 2025, from 1:00 PM to 8:00 PM for the Día de Niño Event. The event will provide a safe and enjoyable experience for children and their families, featuring activities, gifts, and games that promote emotional well-being. Approving the waiver aligns with the City’s mission to support community engagement and family-oriented programming. Lideras Campesinas will still be required to meet insurance and deposit requirements.

Background
Lideres Campesinas de Soledad is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advocating for the rights and well-being of women farmworkers and their families. Their upcoming event, Día de Niño, is intended to create a special experience for children, featuring activities, gifts, and games. The event aims to support children’s emotional well-being, addressing concerns such as stress, depression, and anxiety through positive community engagement.

Review & Analysis
Approving the fee waiver will support a community-based nonprofit organization in providing a free, child-focused event that promotes mental and emotional well-being for children in the community. It will also strengthen the City’s commitment to supporting programs that benefit underserved populations, ensuring that families have access to enriching and engaging activities at no cost. 45 Resolution No. 6207
Fee Waiver
This event will take place outside of Community Center regular facility hours, which will require additional staff to accommodate the facility use. In a general rental situation, this cost would be included as an add-on fee to the renter, but in this case, it is a part of the amount being waived. By approving this waiver, the City is also covering the staffing costs associated with opening and maintaining the facility during non-business hours.

The requested fee waiver would cover facility rental costs for the event, which would otherwise total $1,095, after the nonprofit discount:

Standard Gym Rental Fee - $1,600 (10-hours max use)
50% nonprofit discount - <$800>
Reservation fee: $50
After-hours staff fee: $245
If the waiver is approved, Lideres Campesinas de Soledad will still be required to:

Provide a certificate of insurance with $1 million per occurrence, listing the City of Soledad and all its officers and employees as additional insured.

Submit a refundable $1,000 facility deposit.

Financial Considerations
The approval of this fee waiver will result in a loss of $1,095 in potential revenue for the Parks and Recreation Department. This includes the cost of additional staffing for the facility during this event.

Alternatives
Approve the fee waiver as recommended.

Approve a partial fee waiver.

Do not approve the fee waiver and provide other directions to staff.

Planning/CEQA
The City of Soledad has determined that the proposed action of approving a fee waiver for the use of the Soledad Community Center is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Guidelines Section 15378. Because the proposed action and this matter have no potential to cause any effect on the environment or because it falls within a category of activities excluded as projects pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378.

Public Notice Requirements
Not Applicable.

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 6208, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad Accepting the Veteran’s Park Recycled Water Irrigation Retrofit and Authorizing the Release of Retention in the Amount of $4,720.75
TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Don Wilcox, Public Works Director/City Engineer, Juan Huerta, Assistant Engineer
MEETING DATE: March 19, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

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

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad Consider and Adopt Resolution No. 6208, “Accepting the Veteran’s Park Recycled Water Irrigation Retrofit and Authorizing the Release of Retention in the Amount $4,270.75”.

Executive Summary
Work done by Lonestar Landscape, Inc. for the Veteran’s Park Recycled Water Irrigation Retrofit Project, accommodating the use of recycled water at the Park from the City’s Water Reclamation Facility, has been completed and inspected. Staff is therefore recommending that the Retrofit Project be accepted and that the City release the retention payment to Lonestar Landscape, Inc.

Background
Since 2008, when the City embarked on Soledad’s new Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) Project, the City has long strived to institute a complex recycled water (RW) utility enterprise in order to offset the use of a significant amount of groundwater by providing city park turf irrigation using recycled water instead of potable water. Recycled water can also be used when turf irrigation may be prohibited by the Governor during drought conditions. The WRF was completed in 2010, and the RW pipeline from the WRF to the closest city park (Veterans Park) was completed in 2019. On February 21, 2024, the City Council approved a services contract with Lonestar Landscape, Inc. in the amount of $114,825 plus a 10% Construction Contingency for a total not to exceed the amount of $126,307.50 for the Veteran’s Park Irrigation Retrofit Project (“Retrofit Project”). The purpose of the Retrofit Project was the installation of a new point of connection and other related changes necessary to facilitate the use of Title 22 “tertiary” recycled water at Veteran’s Park. This work included, the installation of all new purple colored (integral colored) valve boxes, sprinkler heads, and purple signs. This work also 54 Resolution No. 6208
included the separation of potable water and non-potable water to continue feeding the drinking water fountain and the restrooms. On February 21, 2024, the City Council approved a consulting services agreement with the Wallace Group for Construction Management and Inspection services for the Retrofit Project in the total amount not to exceed $44,944.40.

Review & Analysis
During the construction phase of the Retrofit Project, a minor modification was made to the project’s scope of work that resulted in a reduction of the construction services contract amount. The modification was made to avoid a lengthy wait time to order an integral-colored valve box and having to remobilize the contractor to the park. The remaining work to furnish and install the integral-colored valve box will be part of the upcoming Soledad Recycled Water Conveyance Project. Public Works Staff has inspected and reported that the Retrofit Project work has been completed in accordance with project documents. Therefore, Staff is recommending that the City accept the Retrofit Project as complete and release the retention.

Financial Considerations
This Retrofit Project was initially funded through the City’s Sewer Fund. However, once the City was awarded the Urban Community Drought Relief (UCDR) Grant funding, expenses shifted toward the grant as eligible expenses. Therefore, the remaining retention in the amount of $4,270.75 will be charged against the grant.

Alternatives

1. Approve the resolution as presented; or

2. Reject the proposed resolution.

Planning/CEQA
This project is categorically exempt from analysis under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Class 1 - Existing Facilities, which states, 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. The infrastructure to provide recycled water to Veteran’s Park was completed in prior projects and this irrigation retrofit project is to establish a new point of connection at the park to begin utilizing Title 22 “tertiary” recycled water and make the necessary changes within the park as required by the State of California. As such, the proposed work is considered a minor alteration of an existing facility.

Public Notice Requirements
None required.

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 5.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and adopt Resolution No.6209, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad "Approving In-Kind City Services and Approving the Street Closure of Soledad Street Between Front Street and Monterey Street for the Annual Soledad Historical Society Farmer’s Market".

Executive Summary
The Soledad Historical Society "Society" organizes the annual Soledad Farmer's Market, which takes place from early April to October. The farmer's market comprises about 8-10 vendors offering locally sourced products such as produce, baked goods, crafts, and specialty foods. The event aims to attract visitors to the free museum while raising funds for its upkeep. The Society has applied for various permits, including temporary use, special events, and business licenses for vendors. The Society is requesting approval to close the 100th block of Soledad Street every Thursday during the event from 1:00 PM to 9:00 PM. The Public Works, Police, Fire, and Planning Departments have recommended approval, pending final approval from the Council.

Background
The Soledad Farmer's Market is a popular attraction for residents, revitalizing the downtown area and boosting the local economy. This event takes place weekly every Thursday from April 3rd to October 2nd, 2025, from 3:00 PM to 8 PM, offering a safe and enjoyable experience for the community. The Soledad Historical Society organizes and manages the event, fostering greater community participation in the museum and raising funds for its maintenance. The farmer's market also invites public agencies to take part in the event at no cost, providing the City with a valuable opportunity for community outreach.
57 Resolution No. 6209
Review & Analysis
The event will require a street closure on Soledad Street between Monterey and Front Street, as has been done in previous years. Exhibit A outlines the necessary closures and barricades for public safety.

The applicant must first obtain permission from the City Council, which is contingent upon securing all required permits, including a temporary use permit, special event permit, and business licenses for all participating vendors. Once the Council grants approval, Public Works staff will collaborate with the applicant to ensure that barricades and signage are properly placed along the designated street closure area. The applicant will coordinate the delivery of barricades during regular work hours to minimize any disruption to City staff, ensuring a smooth and efficient process with no unnecessary delays or burdens.

The applicant is also responsible for submitting an updated insurance certificate and final vendor list prior to the event. The insurance certificate must explicitly name the City of Soledad, along with its elected and appointed officials, employees, and agents, as additional insureds. This provision ensures that the City is adequately covered under the applicant's liability policy in the event of any incidents or accidents during the event.

In addition, while the applicant has submitted a preliminary list of vendors for the Farmer’s Market, a final and comprehensive list will be provided closer to the event date. This updated list will be thoroughly reviewed to ensure all participating vendors hold the appropriate business licenses as required by the City of Soledad. The City staff will assist the applicant in ensuring that all vendors are fully compliant with local licensing regulations. This collaboration will include any necessary communication with the vendors to facilitate the approval of their business licenses, ensuring that the event complies with all City regulations.

Financial Considerations
The Public Works Department is expected to coordinate with the Soledad Historical Society during the week to minimize additional staff costs for the event.

Alternatives
Approve the Resolution as presenter; or
Deny the Resolution of in-kind city services and the street closure of Soledad Street between Front Street and Monterey Street
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.

TO: Honorable Mayor Anna Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Beatriz Trujillo, Community and Economic Development Director and Ariana Mora, Senior Planner
MEETING DATE: March 19, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 6.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and approve Resolution No. 6210, “Approving Amendment #2 to Extend the Term of the 2045 General Plan Update Professional Services Agreement with PlaceWorks Inc. to December 31, 2026.” Executive Summary
PlaceWorks Inc. has been serving as the consultant for the General Plan Update for the City of Soledad since 2022. In December 2024, the City Council approved Amendment No. 1 to the PlaceWorks contract, which added work related to efforts for Housing Element Implementation. Staff is proposing a new amendment to extend the contract term until December 31, 2026. This extension will allow PlaceWorks to continue to provide City staff with much-needed assistance to implement housing programs in line with the newly adopted 2023-2031 Housing Element and achieve completion of the General Plan Update by January 2026.

Background
On October 5, 2022, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an agreement with PlaceWorks for consulting services to update the City's General Plan and Housing Element, effective from January 1, 2023, through April 1, 2025. These documents guide the future growth and development of a city, county, or region and serve as the community's blueprint for land use, infrastructure, housing, transportation, environmental protection, and public services over a typical planning period. In California, cities and counties are legally required to adopt a General Plan and Housing Element.

The Community & Economic Development Department (CED) is leading the update of the General 68 Plan, known as Siempre Soledad. This effort involved assessing data needs, conducting community engagement, and holding stakeholder meetings. The goal is to gather input on existing conditions, community needs, and local preferences to craft the new 2045 General Plan Update.

As the project progressed, City staff identified additional tasks that required PlaceWorks' expertise to ensure the successful completion of the 2045 General Plan update and the implementation of the 2023– 2031 Housing Element. In December 2024, City staff proposed Amendment No. 1 to the consulting agreement, which would utilize REAP 2.0 funding to expand PlaceWorks' scope of work to facilitate critical zoning updates and revisions to the Downtown Specific Plan. The work currently being conducted by PlaceWorks is in line with the overall goals of the General Plan and the Housing Element, thereby supporting Soledad's long-term objectives for housing and community development.

Review & Analysis
At the time of this report, $504,871.22 remains unused from the existing contract. Given the continued activity for the General Plan and Housing Element Implementation, the City reached out to PlaceWorks to inquire about extending the contract term. PlaceWorks submitted the attached letter and has proposed an agreement to extend services to December 31, 2026.

Upon approval of the contract extension, PlaceWorks and CED plan to complete draft maps for review.

CED is finalizing the City’s Land Use Map, as a result of finalizing the land use alternatives back in December 2024. The Land Use Map is a key component of the General Plan, as it visually illustrates how land within the city is intended to be used. It serves as a guide for policymakers, developers, and the public, offering insight into the long-term vision for growth and development. The draft map will need to be reviewed and recommended for approval by the Planning Commission before it is presented to the City Council for final approval. Once approved, the map will guide PlaceWorks and CED in completing the first draft of the General Plan Update.

CED is also actively working to implement the Housing Element programs. If the contract extension is approved, PlaceWorks will continue assisting with the implementation of key Housing Element programs, including promoting higher-density and mixed-use development to meet both state and local housing goals. By ensuring compliance with state mandates, including fair housing objectives and CEQA requirements, continued consulting services will position the City of Soledad for sustainable growth while addressing the community’s housing and development needs.

Financial Considerations
The total contract amount with PlaceWorks Inc. approved by Resolution No.5877 in 2022 was $997,980. An additional $79,900 was allocated from REAP 2.0 Funds through Amendment No. 1 through Resolution No. 6178 totaling to $1,077,880. Because there is a remaining balance of $504,871.22 in this contract with PlaceWorks, no additional funds from the City of Soledad are required.

Alternatives
Approve the contract amendment
Do not approve the contract amendment and provide other direction to staff Planning/CEQA
The proposed planning services agreement is not a project as defined by the California Environmental 69 Resolution No. 6210
Exhibit A- PlaceWorks Amendment No. 2
Attachment A- PlaceWorks Consulting Services Agreements Attachment B- PlaceWorks Extension and Schedule
Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378). Because the matter does not cause a direct or foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability.

Our team has a solid history of working together, including on general plans in Monterey County. We have the desire and capacity to take on the project, and we are dedicated to its success, with senior-level personnel committed throughout.

We see the General Plan Update as a collaborative effort with City staff, and we understand that staff time is valuable, so we are prepared to take the lead to move the project forward if and as you direct. We are eager to help the diverse Soledad community create and achieve a shared and aspirational vision for future preservation, growth, and change that is environmentally, economically, and equitably feasible and sustainable.

If selected by City staff to prepare the General Plan Update, PlaceWorks acknowledges our responsibility to complete the entire contract and warrants that there is no perceived or actual conflict of interest associated with performing this work.

PlaceWorks understands that the City may award separate contracts to different consultants for the General Plan Update/public participation work and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) work. This would not impact PlaceWorks’ schedule or budget.

We have reviewed the City’s Standard Agreement for Consultant Services in its entirety and suggest that we remove Section 2.3.

We have also reviewed the City’s Insurance Requirements, and our insurance coverage summary is included in Chapter 4. We have included proposed modifications from our subconsultant in the appendix.

Please contact either of us any time if you need anything. We look forward to the prospect of working with you.

Sincerely,

PLACEWORKS

CENTENNIAL GENERAL PLAN UPDATE 2. Executive Summary  3

CITY OF SOLEDAD
Executive Summary
The City of Soledad is updating its 2005 General Plan. Some elements of the General Plan deserve or require a comprehensive evaluation and update – key among those, Land Use, Circulation and Economic Development. Changes to the other elements may be needed to reflect current conditions in the City and to address current State law but may not need as much of an overhaul.

Because parts of the 2005 General Plan remain useful and relevant, PlaceWorks proposes to build on those fundamental strengths, refine any General Plan concepts that have become outdated, and respond to new legislative requirements to ensure the Plan is legally sound. This is also an opportunity to address planning topics that both have continued to grow in importance to the Soledad community and are now subject to state guidance, including climate change and environmental justice.

Soledad has been careful to manage its outward growth, in particular where preservation of agricultural land is concerned. The City entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with Monterey County in 2016 to work together to grow in a deliberate manner, protect agricultural land, maintain separation between Soledad and adjacent communities, and guide any future annexations. This agreement will underpin the analysis of future growth in the General Plan. The community-driven process will also evaluate property owner requests and other potential growth opportunities identified by the City in recent years.

Although residential development has been robust since the 2008 Great Recession, commercial development has not occurred at the rate or scale anticipated in the 2005 General Plan. This update will look at current economic factors and developing trends, including the continued decline of brick-and-mortar retail, a more dispersed workforce in some industries, and anticipated advances in transportation. Changes to state housing law are also impacting Soledad. To deal with this combination of trends, the General Plan Update will explore options to bolster and diversify the local economy over the next 25 years.

The PlaceWorks team will work closely with City staff, officials, and the community to take advantage of existing relationships to reach as many community members as possible in the General Plan Update process. Our team includes first-language Spanish speakers who will be involved in all aspects of community outreach and project materials will be available in Spanish as well as English. We will engage with the community and staff in ways ranging from in-person focus groups to fun and mobile-optimized online exercises and will tailor our engagement toolkit as needed to respond to the ever-changing COVID-19 landscape.

The General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC) will be our added eyes and ears in the community to provide insight and to encourage broad engagement in the process. They will also provide unique expertise and invaluable local knowledge. The combination of community and GPAC input, in addition to guidance from the Planning Commission and City Council, will lead to a new Soledad Centennial General Plan that will take the community into a prosperous, healthy, and equitable future. Their input will be provide critical initial feedback on the key deliverables for the project. Additional detail about our approach to outreach is provided in Section 5, Specialized Knowledge, of this proposal. 95 4  2. Executive Summary CENTENNIAL GENERAL PLAN UPDATE

RECENT PROJECTS
PlaceWorks
Morro Bay General Plan/Local Coastal Program Update (Plan Morro Bay) for the City of Morro Bay. Amy Sinsheimer, while employed at another firm and continuing to the present at PlaceWorks, assisted the City of Morro Bay as the lead consultant on the update to the City’s General Plan and Land Use Plan portion of the Local Coastal Program. Amy authored sections of the background report, attended and presented at all public outreach events, and nearly all General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC) meetings and public hearings for the project. Amy managed the drafts of Plan Morro Bay and worked side-by-side with City staff to address comments received from the community, Coastal Commission staff, GPAC and Planning Commission. She coordinated with the other consultants on the project to prepare memos and technical analysis supporting the General Plan analysis and policies, the Environmental Impact Report and the comprehensive zoning update that is also part of Plan Morro Bay. The update addressed all required Coastal issues along with state regulations required for a General Plan Update. A key issue for the project has been identifying areas within the City where growth and change are expected to occur and deciding whether any annexation or expansion of the City’s sphere of influence is desired by the community through the year 2040. Plan Morro Bay was adopted in May 2021.

Hollister General Plan Update for the City of Hollister. PlaceWorks is assisting the City of Hollister with a comprehensive yet targeted update of the General Plan, which primarily addresses growth and development issues and includes several new additions. Hollister and its adjacent unincorporated areas represent the majority of urbanized land in San Benito County.

Hollister decision-makers support infill development, but a significant amount of residential growth is occurring outside the City Limits. PlaceWorks is leading a process to improve coordination between the City of Hollister and County of San Benito when planning for future growth. The project also includes new policies and procedures to address downtown revitalization, agricultural preservation, vehicle miles traveled (VMT), environmental justice, and new General Plan Elements addressing Economic Development and Arts and Culture. As part of the project, PlaceWorks is leading virtual and in-person community workshops and coordinating input from a General Plan Advisory Committee, the Planning Commission, and City Council.

Los Banos General Plan Update 2040 for the City of Los Banos. Located in western Merced County, 80 miles from Silicon Valley, the City of Los Banos is an urban town with agricultural roots. Although the City’s existing General Plan is not quite 10 years old, those years have seen significant economic, political, and technological changes, with more on the horizon. PlaceWorks will assist the City with a targeted update of the General Plan to position Los Banos to respond to those changes and gear up for the future. The General Plan Update will focus on refinements to any General Plan concepts that have become outdated and respond to new legislative requirements to ensure the updated General Plan is legally sound. PlaceWorks will also address planning topics that have emerged over the past decade, such as public health and climate change. In addition, the targeted update will result in a set of implementation plans so the City can quickly mobilize to work toward achieving two of its primary goals: growing existing businesses and attracting new businesses that will employ Los Banos residents. The implementation plans will include an Economic Development Strategy, a Downtown Strategic Plan, and a Business Park Master Plan. As part of the project, PlaceWorks will also prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), as required by CEQA.

costs and job growth in the San Francisco Bay Area fueled intense housing development on the outskirts of Stockton, and the city was hit hard by the economic recession that followed. The 2007 adopted and certified General Plan and EIR were the subject of a lawsuit involving the Sierra Club and State Attorney General. The Settlement Agreement that followed in 2008 called upon the City to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through a Climate Action Plan, which was completed in 2014, and General Plan amendments to promote infill development. PlaceWorks led a new comprehensive update to the General Plan to fulfill the City’s obligations under the Settlement Agreement and to reflect a significantly different set of conditions and trends resulting from the economic recession that came on the heels of the previous General Plan. The update is well timed to help Stockton make the leap to the realization of a stronger, sustainable economy and enhanced quality of life. The General Plan is built on customized corridor-specific components to shift from aging industrial infrastructure into vibrant mixed-use neighborhood arteries. Through meaningful public input, the project team explored land use and circulation options to target areas that can catalyze positive change, and developed creative policies that promote infill development and economic sustainability. The EIR evaluates the General Plan, as required by CEQA, and the team conducted a detailed review of the City’s Development Code to identify needed updates following General Plan adoption. The General Plan has been awarded the 2019 American Planning Association (APA) California Statewide and Sacramento Valley Section, Comprehensive Planning Award:

Sustainable Communities Strategy Base-Case Scenario for the Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments. PlaceWorks worked with the Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments (AMBAG) to develop a base-case scenario for the region’s Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS). Using population, land use, and other geospatial data, PlaceWorks classified all urban areas into “place types” that reflected the land uses, building intensities, and overall settings present in the Monterey Bay region at the time of the project. This place-type system was designed to allow planners and stakeholders in the region to better visualize existing and potential development patterns, with the goal of promoting greater efficiency, sustainability, and land conservation under the SCS. As part of the place-type identification and analysis, PlaceWorks identified land use and transportation characteristics associated with each place-type. In conjunction with the analysis, PlaceWorks engaged with planners throughout the region to solicit input on the place-type system, mapping, and analysis. This feedback was then incorporated into the final place-type designations, visualization products, technical documentation, and project/program recommendations.

Envision Stockton 2040 General Plan Update for the City of Stockton. BAE served as the housing and economics subcontractor to PlaceWorks for preparation of the Envision Stockton 2040 General Plan Update, which received the Comprehensive Plan Award for Large Jurisdictions from the California Chapter of the APA in 2019. BAE’s role included preparation of a real estate market conditions study and background report that examined ongoing demographic and economic trends and projected growth potential for industrial, retail, office, high- and low-density residential, and hotels. BAE also analyzed data specific to the historic Downtown with the intent of using that information for development of the Downtown Element. BAE conducted financial feasibility analysis for new development to help the City understand barriers to redevelopment within the historic urban core. BAE also reviewed the Council-adopted Economic Development Strategic Plan and interviewed a range of local economic development professionals to identify issues and opportunities to be addressed through the General Plan Update and related efforts, including positioning the City to better foster economic growth and diversification, encouraging infill development and the redevelopment of underutilized sites, and encouraging revitalization of the City’s urban core. As part of the fiscal impacts analysis for the General Plan alternative scenarios, BAE prepared an infill opportunities report that rated infill opportunity sites and areas based on their responsiveness to market opportunities and their potential to accommodate uses and activities targeted in the Economic Development Strategic Plan. This analysis also included a fiscal screening of potential annexation areas to identify areas that may raise red flags from a public services cost standpoint and/or that may present particularly attractive opportunities for fiscal benefits. The former included locations that require significant expansions of services to accommodate growth, while the latter included areas where there is potential for new development to use existing underutilized service capacity and to accommodate uses such as regional retail or lodging that have particular revenuegenerating potential.

CITY OF SOLEDAD
Specialized Knowledge
General Plan Expertise
With nearly a dozen principal-level General Plan practitioners throughout California, PlaceWorks’ portfolio of General Plan projects and expertise is unparalleled. As shown in Figure 2, PlaceWorks has the distinction of having prepared more than 100 general plans for communities throughout California, 18 of which have won awards at the local and state levels from the APA. The breadth of our experience includes small and large urbanized cities as well as rural, suburban, and unincorporated communities. We also have a broad range of experience in coastal, mountain, valley, and desert communities throughout the state. Our staff members are frequent speakers on the general plan process, requirements, and best practices. Additionally, David Early, one of PlaceWorks’ Founding Principals and designated as the Lead Facilitator for the Modesto 2050 General Plan, is the author of Solano Press’ The General Plan in California.

PlaceWorks is uniquely qualified to assist with the following aspects of the General Plan Update process:
 Process Coordination. PlaceWorks can work with the City to coordinate the planning and public engagement processes for the General Plan to ensure a seamless, transparent process that is accessible and does not lead to overload due to too many meetings or engagement processes occurring at or around the same time.  Policy Consistency. PlaceWorks will ensure that any items that affect General Plan and zoning regulations are correctly reflected in the pertinent documents as well.  Land Use. Land use policy is the heart of the General Plan, and it also has a critical impact on GHG emissions. Dispersed land uses can lead to higher amounts of driving and VMT, while more concentrated mixed uses, combined with walkable and transit-oriented design can lessen driving and VMT. PlaceWorks can help the City ensure that General Plan land use policy is crafted to generate the best possible GHG and climate outcomes.
 Transportation. Transportation modes that minimize carbon emissions— particularly walking, bicycling, and transit—will be important strategies for the General Plan Update. PlaceWorks can assist the City in ensuring consistency between the transportation goals and policies to be included in the General Plan Circulation Element.

 Resilience. The General Plan needs to address both GHG emissions and resilient adaptation responses to climate change. PlaceWorks can assist the City in thinking about how resilience can be incorporated into all aspects of community planning, including land use, services, and safety.
 Equity. The General Plan Update needs to center the concept of equity, meaning that identity—such as race, ethnicity, gender, age, disability, and sexual orientation or expression—should have no detrimental effect on the distribution of resources, opportunities, and outcomes for Soledad’s residents. PlaceWorks has a strong track record in equitable planning and is the author (with the California Environmental Justice Alliance) of the SB 1000 Toolkit. PlaceWorks can help the City to ensure that the General Plan Update contains a coordinated set of equitable goals, policies, and programs.

Visioning and Public Outreach
Strong and meaningful community involvement will be critical to the successful adoption and ongoing implementation of the General Plan. It will take creativity and innovation to engage all facets of the community. Throughout the project, the PlaceWorks team will remain committed to listening to and understanding the voices of Soledad residents, business owners, City staff, and decision-makers. We will use our professional expertise not to predetermine outcomes, but to support the community in telling—and creating— its own story. The voices of the community will be carried through all our work, building pride of ownership over the General Plan and confidence in a shared vision for the future of Soledad. PlaceWorks will have staff who can participate in Spanish-language engagement, including providing translation and presentations at every public meeting or event.

With the COVID-19 pandemic, the ways we can safely interact are continuously changing.

Accordingly, we are prepared for the engagement toolkit to evolve over the course of the project and will plan to work with the City to employ emerging best practices at all points in the project based on community needs and preferences and public health and safety.

The General Plan Update outreach and engagement will:
 Reach out to historically underrepresented groups in the community, including by providing materials and conducting meetings in multiple languages and by partnering with local ambassadors such as the Youth Council and Local Government Hispanic Network.
 Combine multiple public input channels to gather community sentiment, such as workshops, pop-up events, presentations to community groups, stakeholder focus groups, online exercises, social media, and e-blasts.
 Employ our expertise in virtual engagement, honed during the COVID-19 pandemic.  Place the General Plan Advisory Committee in a key position as liaison to the diverse breadth of the Soledad community.

PlaceWorks will prepare a branding package that includes a project logo and color palette to theme the General Plan Update and create a recognizable identity that takes design cues from the unique characteristics of Soledad. The branding package will also lay the groundwork for an attractive website to both inform and engage community members by 115
24  5. Specialized Knowledge CENTENNIAL GENERAL PLAN UPDATE

CITY OF SOLEDAD
providing project information, advertise upcoming events, document input, publish project documents, and offer fun and meaningful online activities.

A focus group meeting on local economics will provide an opportunity to delve deeply into topics of unique concern in Soledad, such as agricultural processing potential and housing for seasonal employees. We also plan to facilitate multiple rounds of community meetings and workshops. For each set, we can hold the same meeting in different settings to maximize participation, such as at two different locations in the city or one in-person and one online. We will also attend community events like farmers’ markets, Chamber of Commerce events, and faith-based events to engage residents where it is most convenient for them.

We will present to the Planning Commission and City Council for guidance and direction at key milestones such as land use alternatives refinement, and we will meet at key points with an informal City staff technical advisory committee to ensure that implementation of the General Plan is feasible and supported.

To inform the community discussions, PlaceWorks will prepare a briefing book that highlights key issues and opportunities for the General Plan Update. The briefing book will pull relevant information, including maps, infographics, tables, and photographs from the existing conditions analysis into a concise, attractive format that community members, City staff, and elected officials can easily use to facilitate conversations about options for Soledad’s future.

Process Facilitation. PlaceWorks specializes in leading robust and creative public engagement processes for general plan updates. We will work with City staff to develop a public outreach and engagement program that involves all sectors of the community in all facets of the project in creative and engaging ways, including both in-person and online events with multiple points of access.

Local Community-Based Organization Engagement. To address issues of both equity and growth, it will be critical to engage local community-based organizations (CBOs) and bring them to the table and create a consensus approach to planning in Soledad. 116

Text will be carefully written and concise to minimize the document’s length and maximize readability.

C.2 Economic Development Focus Group
Understanding and addressing the needs of key economic interests and stakeholders will be vital to the GPU process. As described in Task B.2, BAE will conduct interviews with some of the key economic stakeholders early in the GPU process. As a next step to evaluate the economic development opportunities and challenges in the City, BAE and PlaceWorks will convene an economic development focus group to present information from the Existing Socioeconomic and Fiscal Conditions and Trends memo (Task B.2), to solicit input regarding the Economic Development Element. BAE will lead the group through a discussion to review the existing element, identify key pieces that remain relevant, and identify key pieces that should be updated. The group will also brainstorm strategies that the City could employ to support growth in the local economy. The PlaceWorks team will provide a summary report of the discussions to compile with the public input materials that will guide the visioning process.

C.3 Agency Coordination
PlaceWorks and City staff will engage in conversations with other government agencies, such as Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO), the Soledad Unified School District, the County of Monterey, Hartnell College, Correctional Training Facility, and Salinas Valley State Prison to develop policies to improve coordination on land use planning and other relevant issues.

C.4 GPAC Presentation

General Plan Update
Based on the work from Task C, the PlaceWorks team will provide an update of the existing General Plan to comply with new State and local regulations and respond to new planning issues and priorities.

D.1 Outline, Format, and Policy Audit
PlaceWorks will work with City staff to prepare and refine an outline of the GPU document and create a template for an attractive, easy-to-read, user-friendly document. PlaceWorks will combine the City’s existing General Plan 2035 goals, policies, and actions into a consolidated matrix to assist in evaluation and direction by City staff. Working with the evaluation matrix, we will identify current General Plan goals, policies, and actions that remain relevant and should carry into the next General Plan, versus ones that have been accomplished or are no longer relevant.

D.2 Draft Alternatives
The PlaceWorks team will evaluate up to three alternatives to the proposed project, one of which will be the CEQA-required No Project Alternative. CEQA Guidelines allow the alternatives to be evaluated in less detail than the project, but they still will need adequate metrics to allow comparison. Accordingly, the alternatives will be evaluated at a qualitative level. Based on this analysis, the Environmentally Superior Alternative will be identified (as required by CEQA).

E.3 Draft General Plan
PlaceWorks will update the existing General Plan based on the work from Task C.2 to ensure that the GPU complies with new State and local regulations relevant to the City of Soledad and that the responses to State-imposed requirements are tailored to reflect Soledad’s interests and goals. This update will include resolving inconsistencies between the General Plan and other relevant planning documents.

This task will also include required updates to legally-required General Plan components if necessitated by changes in the other elements and/or the CEQA analysis discussed below.

For example, the required noise contour maps may need to be updated based on updated traffic modeling.

Soledad is not required under SB 1000 to prepare a stand-alone Environmental Justice Element. PlaceWorks expects to address Environmental Justice as appropriate based on community and City input throughout the General Plan Elements. PlaceWorks has multiple experts in this topic area and extensive recent experience with addressing these requirements. We will work with the City to apply the approach that makes the most sense for Soledad.

Climate Change
Approach. Our approach to addressing climate change mitigation and adaptation is integrative and holistic. Soledad’s long-term environmental, economic, and social prosperity depends on ensuring that land use planning and development recognizes the links between the built and natural environments and social systems. The PlaceWorks team will identify key GHG emissions sources and climate change vulnerabilities, and through staff and public engagement, we will identify goals and strategies to reduce GHGs and increase resilience. We will assist the City and community in framing equitable goals and policies to reduce waste and to encourage energy and water conservation and efficiency, green infrastructure, and active transportation.

We will build on the most recent (2019) protocol-compliant GHG inventory from AMBAG by adjusting it for local conditions in Soledad to forecast and assess potential 125
34  6. Scope of Work CENTENNIAL GENERAL PLAN UPDATE

CITY OF SOLEDAD
emissions associated with growth and change during the General Plan timeframe. GHG reduction, climate adaptation, and resilience goals and policies can be integrated into multiple elements of the General Plan, including Land Use, Housing, Circulation, Public Services and Facilities, Conservation, and Open Space, though many of the climate adaptation and resiliency goals and policies have an obvious home in the Safety Element.
 Climate Vulnerability Assessment
We will analyze how climate change may affect the populations and community assets in and around Soledad, recognizing that climate effects on the areas outside of the city limits may still have impacts to the community. We will prepare a list of all populations and community assets that we recommend for inclusion in the Vulnerability Assessment, based on discussions with City staff, recommendations from the California Adaptation Planning Guide, and guidance from other documents, including the Monterey County Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan, and best practices. In accordance with the recently updated Adaptation Planning Guide (led by PlaceWorks in partnership with the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services) and best practices, we anticipate looking at how climate change and associated effects will affect the following:
o Populations: Persons who are likely to be disproportionately harmed by climate change and its effects, including senior citizens (especially those living alone), low-income households, and persons with disabilities or chronic health conditions.
o Buildings, infrastructure, and key services: Important structures in the community, including key roads and highways, electricity and natural gas lines, hospitals, major economic centers, and critical City facilities. o Ecosystems and natural resources: The range of natural lands in and around Soledad.

We will collaborate with City staff to determine where best to include climate change topics in the General Plan Elements. We’ve included it in the Land Use and Safety Element as a preliminary recommendation.

Draft Elements
 Safety Element. The Safety Element aims to reduce the short-term and long-term potential threats to community health and safety, foster a resilient local economy and natural ecosystem, and minimize the potential for disruption. This GPU is an opportunity to build on recent regional and state hazard mitigation and adaptation planning efforts and to update data, methods, and strategies consistent with State requirements and best practices. The PlaceWorks team will update the Safety Element:
o Background information,
o Hazard-specific information and details,
o Applicable mapping, including required evacuation mapping, and o Goals, policies, and strategies.
126
CENTENNIAL GENERAL PLAN UPDATE 6. Scope of Work  35

CITY OF SOLEDAD
The element will incorporate the Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment and other relevant analyses. We anticipate the updated Safety Element will address natural, climate, and human-made hazards identified in the existing Safety Element and the Monterey County Multi-jurisdictional Local Hazard Mitigation Plan and the Climate Vulnerability Assessment, including flooding, seismic and geologic hazards, drought, extreme weather, wind, fire, agricultural pests and diseases, human health hazards, hazardous materials. In addition to hazards, we recommend the Safety Element address energy resilience and emergency preparedness.

Goals, policies, and implementation programs will be responsive to these issues and meet requirements of the California Government Code. We emphasize a “noregrets” approach that builds short- and long-term community resiliency and provides co-benefits, such as financial savings, conservation of natural resources, and improvements to public health. We will streamline the element by creating policies that address multiple issues of concern, including climate mitigation, environmental justice, and community health, and provide multiple benefits. The Safety Element will be a framework to support integration of the updated Monterey County Multi-Jurisdictional Local Hazard Mitigation Plan, which is expected to be adopted in 2021.
 Housing Element. Soledad’s Housing Element was updated in 2020. The City will need to address the Regional Housing Need Allocation (RHNA) numbers for the next Housing Element cycle that will begin in 2023 as part of the Housing Element. We expect the numbers will be higher than those the City analyzed in the 2015-2023 Housing Element. This will require additional analysis beyond what was done for the current Housing Element. PlaceWorks will update the baseline information along with complying with new state regulations put in place since the last Housing Element update. At this time, the most significant of those new regulations are the fair housing requirements related to Assembly Bill 686. A couple new sections will be added to the Housing Element to respond to that law and additional outreach regarding equity and fair housing will take place as part of the overall General Plan outreach effort.
 Environmental Justice Element. We understand Environmental Justice will be included in the General Plan. PlaceWorks will address the new Environmental Justice requirements pursuant to California Government Code 65302(h). To support this work, PlaceWorks will first prepare a summary of environmental justice conditions in Soledad. The evaluation will explain the new requirements for general plans to address environmental justice under SB 1000 and describe related topics, including pollution exposure, air quality, public facilities, healthy food access, safe and sanitary housing, physical activity, community engagement, and infrastructure investments. It will also show preliminary maps of “disadvantaged” communities and discuss exposure levels to pollution sources. We will collaborate with City staff to determine where best to include Environmental Justice in the General Plan Elements and whether a stand-along Environmental Justice Element is appropriate.

Based on this analysis and extensive engagement with community members and groups, PlaceWorks will draw upon our expertise to craft policies and actions that alleviate pollution and health impacts, prioritize investments, and elevate the voices in disadvantaged communities.
127

CITY OF SOLEDAD
 Community and Economic Development Element. PlaceWorks will update the existing Economic Development Element to create the new Community and Economic Development Element. The existing policies and programs are intended to help increase the community’s economic activity in order to create more and better jobs, and to provide greater choice and more competitive prices for goods and services. Based on input from the stakeholder interviews, Economic Development Focus Group, GPAC, Planning Commission, and City Council, BAE will refine recommendations for Economic Development Element updates and prepare recommendations to PlaceWorks for an Administrative Draft updated Community and Economic Development Element. This element will include public art, capital improvements, historic district preservation, the California Main Street Program and community character. Updating of this element will be closely tied with the updates to the Land Use Element and the associated Fiscal Analysis.  Land Use Element and Fiscal Analysis. PlaceWorks will update the Land Use Element as needed based on the findings from Task C. This will include updates needed based on fiscal analysis prepared by BAE. It is our understanding that the City is not anticipating significant land uses changes to the existing General Plan. We expect the Land Use Element update to address topics such as:
o Uses that allow for economic growth in flexible, adaptive ways. o Planning boundaries, including any revisions to maps. o Land use policies that create healthy and equitable communities. o Buildings and facilities.
o Climate change and resiliency.
 Circulation Element. Based on existing conditions information prepared by Kimley Horn, PlaceWorks will update the Circulation Element to identify future demands on the circulation system and ensure the City’s mobility and land use plan are integrated. The element will also integrate regional circulation planning with Monterey County and Caltrans. Major transportation facilities, including roads, transit, bike lanes, sidewalks, and railroad crossings will be evaluated, and Circulation Element policies and actions will be aligned with the traffic analysis prepared for the EIR. PlaceWorks will coordinate with City staff to identify issues of importance for the City and to refresh the transportation policies related to all forms of travel/multi-modal transportation, any future improvements related to Highway 101, and local facility improvements, roadway network performance metrics, street conceptual design standards, public health, bicycle and pedestrian circulation, the use of transit, and truck routes.
 Conservation and Open Space Element. The existing Conservation and Open Space Element will be updated for consistency with current state law and to include the topics of air quality, water, wastewater, watershed planning, energy and parks and recreation. Policies and programs will continue to protect and preserve the natural resources in and around Soledad including agricultural areas, hillsides and scenic areas and undeveloped natural areas.

E.4 Implementation Plan and Priorities
PlaceWorks will prepare an Implementation Strategy for the updated General Plan. The strategy will provide a framework to connect day-to-day and short-term actions to longterm goals, ensuring that Soledad’s General Plan remains a living document that can respond to changing conditions. It will also provide an institutional framework to annually revisit the General Plan, gauge its continuing relevance, and recommit investments to the City’s vision.

For each of the actions listed in the adopted General Plan, we will prepare a short description that will:
 Identify the specific General Plan goal the item will implement.  Identify the agency, department, or organization to carry out the task.  Identify resources required for the item.
 Identify the timeframe needed to complete the task.
 Establish a measure to indicate successful completion of the task.

Because the number of actions in the General Plan will have been carefully considered during the writing and public review phases, the Implementation Strategy should provide a clear and achievable roadmap for annual actions. Each year of successful implementation will build support and confidence among the community, elected officials, and staff from all departments.

E.5 Zoning Consistency Analysis
Following finalization of the General Plan, PlaceWorks will carefully review the existing Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map and identify a list of specific changes to both text and graphics needed to align the Zoning Ordinance with the updated General Plan.

Environmental Impact Report (EIR)
In this task, PlaceWorks will prepare a programmatic EIR that analyzes the environmental impacts of the GPU and the implementation measures. The EIR will evaluate potential impacts in the relevant environmental issue areas, using our thorough knowledge of CEQA and experience with dozens of other General Plan EIRs to proactively incorporate policies and actions in the GPU to mitigate potential impacts, striving for a self-mitigating General 129
38  6. Scope of Work CENTENNIAL GENERAL PLAN UPDATE

CITY OF SOLEDAD
Plan. Throughout the EIR, as well as the GPU as a whole, we will maximize use of existing data and analysis.

F.1 Notice of Preparation, Scoping, Tribal Consultation, and Administrative Draft EIR
Notice of Preparation
In coordination with City staff, will prepare a project description to provide enough detail that agencies and the public have adequate information to provide input on the environmental effects of the GPU. This project description will also be the basis of a more detailed description that will be included in the EIR. PlaceWorks will prepare a Notice of Preparation (NOP) of an EIR pursuant to CEQA Section 15082, which will include the project description and a description of the topics to be analyzed in the EIR. To reduce costs associated with the overall environmental effort, we propose to not include an Initial Study checklist, and address any topics that do not need focused analysis in the EIR in an EIR section titled “Effects Found To Not Be Significant.” For any environmental issues found not to require additional analysis, source references will be provided. PlaceWorks will be responsible for circulation of the NOP to the State Clearinghouse.

Tribal Consultation
PlaceWorks will complete the State-mandated noticing to Native American tribes pursuant to SB 18 and AB 52. We will contact the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) by letter to describe the GPU. The letter will request that the NAHC review their Sacred Lands file for information on traditional or cultural lands within the project area and vicinity and will include a request for a listing of local Native American representatives. We will then prepare a basic letter for each tribe to be mailed out on City letterhead. This letter will describe the project and indicate how tribal representatives can request consultation with the City if they so desire. If the tribes do request consultation, City staff will be responsible for arranging and attending any meetings that are required.

Scoping Meeting
We will work with City staff to arrange a Scoping Meeting during the 30-day comment period on the NOP to receive public comment as part of the scoping process for the EIR.

PlaceWorks will attend the meeting and present an overview of the environmental process and key issues for CEQA topics.

Project Description
PlaceWorks will work with City staff to draft and refine a project description based on the description developed for the NOP.

Environmental Analysis
PlaceWorks will prepare an EIR that focuses on CEQA resource categories where substantial evidence of a potentially significant environmental impact exists, while scoping out environmental issues on which it can be seen with certainty that the project would have no significant negative impact based on existing documentation and regulations. In keeping with the requirements of CEQA, environmental review of the General Plan will 130
CENTENNIAL GENERAL PLAN UPDATE 6. Scope of Work  39

CITY OF SOLEDAD
include an analysis to determine the environmental impacts for the following resource categories:
 Aesthetics. The aesthetics analysis will review the Draft GPU land use map, policies, and programs that may impact scenic vistas and other resources.  Agriculture and Forest Resources. Potential impacts to agricultural resources are expected to be a topic of concern in the EIR. PlaceWorks will evaluate potential adverse impacts on agricultural resources, including the loss of agricultural land, conflicts with Williamson Act contracts, or conflicts with ongoing agricultural viability. PlaceWorks will provide recommendations on successful mitigation based on our experience with other General Plan EIRs that have faced legal challenges to the agricultural resources analysis.
 Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Emissions. The PlaceWorks team will model and analyze air quality impacts associated with the horizon year projections associated with the GPU based on the proposed land use plan and the traffic analysis. We will build from the AMBAG GHG inventory to adjust for conditions unique to Soledad and to incorporate emissions reductions achieved from the City’s sustainability policies and practices. The Air Quality Impact Assessment will evaluate long-term air quality impacts in accordance with the regulations and standards of the Monterey Bay Air Resources District (MBARD). Construction emissions will be discussed qualitatively as it is speculative to analyze construction impacts at the program level.

Carbon monoxide hotspots will also be assessed at a program level. Existing and potential future sources of toxic air contaminants in the planning area will be addressed. Consistency with the latest applicable Air Quality Attainment Plan will be addressed. The analysis will be prepared in accordance with the criteria, standards, and provisions of CEQA and will respond to the applicable checklist items within Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines. It is likely that significant and unavoidable air quality impacts will occur as a result of emissions of one or more criteria pollutants.

The report will determine whether the project would directly or indirectly generate significant GHG emissions or conflict with any applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted to reduce such emissions, including the State Scoping Plan and the Regional Transportation Plan and Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS). GHG and climate change protocols are constantly evolving. As such, climate change impacts will be analyzed in accordance with the latest guidance.  Biological Resources. This EIR section will describe known resources and identify proposed General Plan policies that protect sensitive natural resources. Based on existing data, including the California Natural Diversity Database, the EIR will identify vegetation types, wildlife habitats, and known occurrences of special-status species, sensitive natural communities and wetland features. The impact analysis will qualitatively evaluate the impacts of the GPU on these biological resources and identify proposed General Plan policies that mitigate potential impacts.  Cultural Resources and Tribal Cultural Resources. The EIR will describe the regional and local prehistoric and historical context of Soledad, and summarize local, State, and federal policies, laws, and regulations regarding the treatment of cultural resources. The EIR will analyze potential impacts from implementation of the GPU on prehistoric and historic cultural resources, and identify mitigation measures, if necessary. The EIR will summarize the tribal consultation results and assess the potential for impacts on tribal cultural resources.
131

CITY OF SOLEDAD
 Geology, Soils, and Mineral Resources. The EIR will describe the regulatory requirements related to geology, soils, and seismicity and how compliance with regulations would reduce the potential for significant direct and/or indirect environmental impacts.
 Hazards and Hazardous Materials. The EIR will describe hazards and hazardous materials issues and evaluate the potential exposure to these hazards through future development, especially in-fill sites, anticipated in the General Plan.  Hydrology and Water Quality. The City of Soledad is located within the Salinas River watershed. Based on available data, PlaceWorks will discuss existing hydrology and water quality conditions, including regional and site-specific hydrologic setting of the area, stormwater drainage characteristics, water quality data, local receiving water bodies, pollutants of concern based on changes in land use, and flooding hazards. PlaceWorks will identify pertinent local plans, laws, and regulations pertaining to hydrology and water quality. This EIR section will also include a discussion of consistency with the City’s Urban Water Management Plan (2015), and implementation of the City’s stormwater quality best management practices for new development and redevelopment projects.
 Land Use and Planning. The EIR will discuss whether the GPU will physically divide an established community or conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the project.  Noise and Vibration. PlaceWorks will compare existing and future conditions noise and vibration technical analyses, including transportation (roadway and rail), stationary, and construction sources. The EIR will discuss relevant standards and criteria for noise exposure, including those in the General Plan Safety Element and in the Municipal Code. The noise analysis will include a field study and development of updated traffic and rail noise contours. The results of this analysis will be summarized in the EIR and modeling will be provided in an appendix.  Population and Housing. This section will focus on the potential for displacement of people or housing and for substantial population growth that could result from implementation of the General Plan.
 Public Services. This section will evaluate potential impacts on public services, including fire and emergency medical services, police services, and schools.

PlaceWorks will identify existing public services within the city. The setting will include a description of each public service provider, including current and projected capacity.
 Parks and Recreation. PlaceWorks will describe existing recreation facilities in the city and evaluate any potential impacts on existing park and recreation facilities. The impact analysis will draw on standards and objectives described in adopted City documents.
 Traffic Analysis. Kimley Horn will build on the existing conditions assessment to provide the EIR traffic analysis, which will identify planned network improvements and forecast future volumes and conditions. Traffic forecasts will be based on current available data sources including the Tri-County Area traffic model, which is being revised for the MCAG Regional Transportation Plan, as well as the Caltrans Statewide Traffic Model. Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZ) in the AMBAG Travel Demand Model will be used to develop traffic forecasts and VMT estimates for the EIR 132
CENTENNIAL GENERAL PLAN UPDATE 6. Scope of Work  41

CITY OF SOLEDAD
alternatives as required by the Monterey Bay Air Resources District for cumulative conditions and per City VMT policy guidelines.

PlaceWorks will work with City staff to identify a conceptual bicycle and pedestrian network to provide a viable alternative for non-motorized travel. In addition, existing and future transit routes will be reviewed to best integrate with the bicycle and pedestrian network. The data in the traffic analysis will also support the noise, air quality, and greenhouse gas emissions analyses.
 Utilities. Kimley Horn will prepare the utilities and service systems section of the EIR, covering water, wastewater, stormwater, and solid waste utility systems.

Recommended improvements needed to serve planned future development, based on input from the City’s Public Works Department, will be listed in the EIR.  Wildfire. The EIR will include a discussion of potential wildfire hazards, including whether the project would exacerbate fire risks; impair an emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan; require installation of new infrastructure; or expose people to post-fire hazards.
 Alternatives Analysis. The PlaceWorks team will evaluate up to three alternatives to the proposed project, one of which will be the CEQA-required No Project Alternative. CEQA Guidelines allow the alternatives to be evaluated in less detail than the project, but they still will need adequate metrics to allow comparison.

Accordingly, the alternatives will be evaluated at a qualitative level. Based on this analysis, the Environmentally Superior Alternative will be identified (as required by CEQA).
 CEQA-Required Assessment Conclusions. PlaceWorks will prepare the appropriate conclusions to fulfill CEQA requirements by providing an assessment of unavoidable significant environmental impacts, significant irreversible environmental changes, relationship between local short-term uses of the environment and long-term productivity, and effects found not to be significant.

F.2 Draft EIR and Notice of Completion
After City review of the Administrative Draft EIR, based on a single set of consolidated comments from the City, we will incorporate comments and prepare public Draft EIR.

PlaceWorks will route the Draft General Plan to the State Clearinghouse. Technical appendices and background reports will be provided electronically for all drafts.

PlaceWorks will prepare and submit the Notice of Completion (NOC) regarding the Draft EIR to the State Clearinghouse, which will begin the legally required 45-day public review period.

F.3 Open House
PlaceWorks will facilitate an Open House for the GPAC and the community to highlight the goals, policies, and programs of the Draft General Plan, and to answer any questions about the update process and how community participation has shaped the Plan to date. Stations at the Open House could focus on new initiatives regarding economic development, affordable housing, mobility, and community health. The open house format will allow participants to spend time at the stations that are important to them. It will also help build 133
42  6. Scope of Work CENTENNIAL GENERAL PLAN UPDATE

CITY OF SOLEDAD
community by connecting the GPAC members and City staff with their peers in Soledad in a comfortable, almost celebratory setting.

F.4 Public Hearing on Draft EIR
During the Draft EIR public review period, PlaceWorks will attend one public hearing before the Planning Commission or City Council to solicit comments on the Draft EIR.

F.5 Final EIR and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting
Program
Following completion of the 45-day public review period, PlaceWorks will discuss with City staff any comments received during the public review period and the approach to responding to the comments. PlaceWorks will incorporate public and/or agency comments received on the Draft EIR and the responses to these comments, as appropriate, into the Final EIR document. PlaceWorks will also include any needed revisions to the Draft EIR.

Other members of the consulting team will also participate as needed. We assume the comments will only require clarification and expansion of the EIR analysis and/or recognition of the commentors’ concerns about the project being considered; reanalysis of any topics is not included in this scope of work. This scope assumes approximately 40 hours of technical staff time for responses to comments.

PlaceWorks will also prepare a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for the General Plan EIR.

CITY OF SOLEDAD

LITIGATION HISTORY
CEQA has served as a cornerstone in California’s environmental legal foundation and has played a critical role in improving the quality of the California environment. In more recent years, we have seen a growing trend of litigation. In fact, the majority of challenges have occurred in the past 10 years. In general, when our work has been legally challenged, it has prevailed, however there are two projects currently in litigation, including the Terra Vi Eco Lodge EIR (in Tuolumne County), which was challenged by neighbors adjoining the project site, and the Embarcadero Bridge NEPA Environmental Assessment, which is being challenged due to contract issues between the construction contractor and City of Oakland, after the completion of construction.

This is a construction defect case involving the Embarcadero Bridge over the Lake Merritt Channel. General Contractor Flatiron West, Inc. filed the initial complaint on October 29, 2019 against the City of Oakland for Breach of Contract. The City of Oakland crosscomplained against T.Y. Lin /AECOM on July 21, 2020. T.Y Lin/AECOM subsequently filed a cross-complaint against DCE/PlaceWorks on March 5, 2021. The claims against DCE/PlaceWorks include breach of contract, indemnity and declaratory relief. The claims are currently pending.

RROPOSED MODIFICATIONS (KHA)

PROPOSED MODIFICATIONS TO SERVICE AGREEMENT
Kimley-Horn asks that the Sub Agreement include language that would incorporate and/or exclude the following edits as related to the flow through of these terms from the Prime Agreement based on the suggested edits below.

1.2 Standard of Performance. Consultant shall perform all services required pursuant to this Agreement in the manner and according to the standards observed by a competent practitioner of the profession in which Consultant is engaged in the geographical area in which Consultant practices its profession.

Consultant shall prepare all work products required by this Agreement in a substantial, first-class manner and shall conformance with to the standards of quality normally observed by a person practicing in Consultant's profession.

The term “in a substantial, first-class manner” creates a heightened standard of care that is greater than the “standards” of Consultants profession and therefore conflicts with the obligation to provide the standard of care as required in this section and is not insurable.

4.3 Professional Liability Insurance.

4.3.3 The policy must contain a cross liability or severability of interest clause.

Since Section 4.4.3 states that all coverages for subcontractors shall be subject to all of the [insurance] requirements stated herein, and because Section 4.4.4 also states that “the City may approve a variation in the foregoing insurance requirements, upon a determination that the coverages, scope, limits, and forms of such insurance are either not commercially available”, we would ask that the above edit be submitted to the professional liability requirements since cross.

Per IRMI, cross-liability is defined as follows: “Coverage in connection with a suit brought against an insured by another party that has insured status under the same policy. Cross-liability coverage is provided as an intrinsic feature of the standard commercial general liability (CGL) policy, by means of the "separation of insureds" condition.” Since Professional Liability does not grant insured status to third parties, this requirement is not commercially available and is reinforced by the insured-vs-insured exclusion contained in Professional Liability policies as well.

Section 5. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONSULTANT’S RESPONSIBILITIES.

Consultant shall indemnify, defend with counsel selected by the City, and hold harmless the City and its officials, elected and appointed officers, employees, agents, and volunteers from and against any and all losses, liability, claims, suits, actions, damages, and causes of action arising out of any personal injury, bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation of any federal, state, or municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, in whole or in part, by the willful misconduct or negligent acts or omissions of Consultant or its employees, subcontractors, or agents, by acts for which they could be held strictly liable, or by the failure to meet the standard of care in the quality or character of their work. [...].

Professional Liability insurance only covers a professional’s negligence which is the failure to meet the standard of care. The requirement to indemnify and defend for liabilities that are caused by the “quality or character or their work” does not wholly meet this standard as the term has not been defined to mean work that is specifically performed below the standard of care that the contract and the law requires the professional to follow. This type of language creates a heightened standard of care that is not insurable. 177

Re: Proposal to Prepare the 2023-2031 Housing Element Update Dear Bryan:

Please accept the attached submittal as PlaceWorks’ proposal to assist the City of Soledad in preparing its Sixth Round 2023-2031 Housing Element update.

PlaceWorks offers the best team for this project. Our housing team has considerable experience working with the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), having completed over 100 certified housing elements. Jennifer Gastelum, principal-in-charge, will oversee the update effort. She leads the housing team and commands a thorough understanding of the technical requirements of housing elements. Nicole West, a seasoned housing professional, will support this effort as the project manager and serve as the day-to-day contact with support from Amy Sinsheimer, senior advisor. Mark Teague, a veteran CEQA expert, will provide oversight and technical assistance for the CEQA document.

The following scope, budget, and schedule are targeted to ensure the draft Housing Element complies with state law, identifies adequate sites to meet the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), and achieves HCD certification by December 2023.

Please do not hesitate to contact me at 916.804.3910 or jgastelum@placeworks if you need more information. The PlaceWorks team looks forward to working with you on this project.

Sincerely,

PLACEWORKS
Jennifer Gastelum

CITY OF SOLEDAD Housing Element Update  1
Soledad 2023-2031 Housing Element Update
To facilitate your review of this proposal, we have prepared a concise scope that emphasizes key components of our approach to this project. We are flexible regarding the proposed scope of work and will work with you to fine-tune any additional details when we enter into a contract. We also recognize that it may be necessary to alter the scope as the project progresses and would be happy to work with you to ensure the successful completion of the project. We have extensive experience working with HCD—completing over 100 certified housing elements since 2008, the vast majority of which were certified after a single round of review. We also authored the 5th-cycle Soledad Housing Element, so we understand the unique housing conditions and challenges and the complex regulatory requirements that accompany the housing element certification process.

Project Understanding
PlaceWorks understands that the City requests assistance in preparing its 6th-cycle housing element update for submission to the Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) in accordance with state laws, regulations, and statutes since the last housing element adoption. The current Housing Element will serve as the foundation for the 2023-2031 Housing Element update. We included the preparation of an Addendum to the current General Plan for CEQA compliance.

This assumes that there will not be rezones needed to meet the RHNA. Should rezones be needed we will discuss different options with the City and prepare a contract amendment, if necessary.

Key objectives of this work include:
 Update General Plan Housing Element to meet the 6th-cycle RHNA for new residential units in Soledad.

Approach
PlaceWorks will update the Soledad 2023–2031 Housing Element of the General Plan. This effort will include public outreach and coordination with HCD during the housing element update process. PlaceWorks will review the City’s existing housing element, identify key housing stakeholders in the City, and provide public outreach services. We will also prepare the updated element using input from City staff and HCD as necessary to ensure compliance with recently passed state housing legislation and current state housing element law.

PlaceWorks will submit the updated housing element for HCD approval and attend City Council meetings for review and adoption of the housing element. Our scope of work follows this approach and focuses on meeting new state law requirements and achieving state certification by December 2023.

Our proposed project schedule, including milestones, is included below.

2  Housing Element Update CITY OF SOLEDAD
Work Scope
This section describes the scope of services to be completed by the PlaceWorks team for the 2021-2030 Housing Element Update. We have prepared a concise scope that emphasizes key components of our approach to this project. We are flexible regarding the proposed scope of work and will work with you to modify our scope when we enter into a contract. We also recognize that it may be necessary to alter the scope as the project progresses, and we would be happy to work with you to ensure the successful completion of the project.

TASK 1. PROJECT KICK-OFF MEETING
PlaceWorks will prepare for and attend a virtual kick-off meeting to exchange information, refine the scope and schedule, and initiate work. At the meeting we will:
 Determine staff contact protocol.
 Review and finalize the scope of work and schedule.
 Review housing element legal requirements, HCD practices, and facilitation and response from HCD review.  Identify stakeholders.
 Provide a list of data needs.

Task 1 Deliverables:
− Kick-off meeting agenda, data needs list, list of stakeholders, and meeting minutes (electronic copies). − Agenda and notes for subsequent calls with staff (electronic copies).

TASK 2. PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND COORDINATION
PlaceWorks will communicate with City staff via phone and email throughout the project. In addition, PlaceWorks’ project team will:
 Lead Zoom check-in discussions bimonthly with one or two appropriate team members.  Provide an internet-based folder for all project materials accessible to the City and consultants.  Reallocate any remaining funds to other tasks within the scope when tasks are completed under budget.  Send all draft documents through quality control in advance of submitting to the City for review.  Act as a liaison to ensure successful communication and coordination with HCD over the course of the project.

Task 2 Deliverables:
− Project discussion bimonthly via Zoom (assumed 6 check-in meetings).

TASK 3. COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND ENGAGEMENT
Focused and meaningful community engagement is an important part of the Housing Element Update process. Government Code Section 65583(c)(7) requires: “The local government shall make a diligent effort to achieve public participation of all economic segments of the community in the development of the housing element, and the program shall describe this effort.” PlaceWorks recommends a community outreach program consistent with state and federal laws to solicit input from all segments of the community, including housing development professionals, residents, businesses, service groups, youth, seniors, and various stakeholders. Flexibility in regard to community participation is essential. PlaceWorks will collaborate with City staff to adjust and customize our community involvement strategy during our initial kick-off meeting. Our philosophy is to bring the most innovative, effective, and efficient approach to your project. We believe in an iterative process for community engagement that breeds robust and valuable results. We understand that unique situations require creative approaches, and we are always looking to revisit, revise, and improve as we collaborate with you on this process. 185
CITY OF SOLEDAD Housing Element Update  3
PlaceWorks’ outreach strategy will include outreach activities throughout the Housing Element Update process. In the midst of gearing up for interviews, workshops, and the release of documents, the outreach strategy will act as a checklist for City staff and the consultant team.

Task 3.1 Stakeholder Interviews
PlaceWorks has been conducting virtual stakeholder interviews with organizations representing different socioeconomic members of the community to identify housing needs. We have found these consultations to be a valuable way of getting targeted input. We will work with City staff to develop a list of 3 to 5 organizations, and we will conduct a phone or email survey to discuss the issues and housing-related needs of their clients.

Task 3.1 Deliverable:
− 3 to 5 completed consultations to be included in the Housing Element.

Task 3.2 Community Meeting
PlaceWorks proposes to host one workshop and prepare materials, including the PowerPoint presentation. This presentation will be designed to inform and to ask questions for residents and stakeholders to respond to.

Task 3.2 Deliverables:
− Attendance by PlaceWorks staff at one in-person workshop where the public is invited to attend. − Promotional flyer and announcement
− PowerPoint presentation
− Summary notes incorporated into the Housing Element
− Electronic summaries of all input and feedback received Task 3.3 Planning Commission and City Council Study Session We propose:
 One study session with the joint Planning Commission and City Council at the start of the project to inform them of the new laws and the project schedule and to answer any questions at the beginning of the project.

Task 3.3 Deliverables:
− Information for the staff report, draft and final PowerPoint presentations for the meeting and in-person attendance one study session.

Task 3.4 Planning Commission and City Council Hearings
We propose:
 Four public hearings. Two hearings with the Planning Commission and the City Council prior to submitting the draft Housing Element to HCD and two hearings with the Planning Commission and the City Council for adoption of the Housing Element.

Task 3.4 Deliverables:
− Information for the staff reports, draft and final PowerPoint presentations for each meeting, and in-person attendance at four public hearings.

TASK 4. HOUSING AND SPECIAL HOUSING NEEDS
Task 4.1 Housing Needs Assessment
PlaceWorks will update the needs analysis pursuant to Government Code Section 65583 with data from the preapproved HCD data packet 2010 (or 2020 if available), U.S. Census data, American Community Survey, and other relevant sources. 186
4  Housing Element Update CITY OF SOLEDAD
PlaceWorks will coordinate with staff to develop a current housing inventory and evaluate housing conditions using stateapproved criteria. The updated needs analysis will include the following.  Population and Demographics: Population trends and projections, race and ethnicity, and population age.  Household Characteristics: Number, size, and type of existing households and characteristics of lower-income households (including extremely low).
 Employment and Income: Employment by industry, occupation of employed residents, and income trends.  Housing Stock Characteristics: Housing types and conditions, overcrowded households, and vacancy rates.  Housing Costs and Affordability: Home sale price trends, rental costs, affordability for households at all income levels, and overpayment.
 Special Housing Needs: Special housing needs of persons with disabilities (including persons with developmental disabilities), seniors, large households, and female-headed households.  At-Risk Housing: Inventory and analysis of existing affordable units at risk of converting to market rate during the planning period.
 Opportunities for Energy Conservation: Pursuant to SB 375 and AB 32, an inventory and analysis of opportunities to encourage the incorporation of energy-saving features, energy-saving materials, and energy-efficient systems and design for residential development.

Task 4.1 Deliverable:
− Housing Needs Assessment to be included in the Administrative Draft Housing Element.

Task 4.2 Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) Assessment AB 686 requires each city or county to take actions to overcome patterns of segregation, address disparities in housing needs and access to opportunity, and foster inclusive communities. The City of Soledad will need to include an assessment of fair housing practices, examine the relationship of available sites to areas of high opportunity, and include actions to affirmatively advance fair housing. The California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC)/HCD Opportunity Maps will be included as well as approved HCD maps that are intended to display the areas, according to research, that offer low-income children and adults the best chance at economic advancement, high educational attainment, and good physical and mental health. The goal of AB 686 is to ensure available sites for low-income housing are in high-resource areas rather than concentrated in areas of high segregation and poverty. It will be important to demonstrate adequate sites throughout the City and meaningful actions to overcome geographic disparities.

Task 4.2 Deliverable:
− AFFH Assessment to be included in the Administrative Draft Housing Element TASK 5. HOUSING CONSTRAINTS
PlaceWorks will update the analysis of potential and actual governmental and nongovernmental constraints to meeting housing needs, including constraints to maintenance, improvement, and development of housing (pursuant to California Government Code Section 65583(a)(4,5)). Potential constraints to be reviewed include any land use controls, fees and exactions, permit processing procedures, building codes and code enforcement, land and construction costs, and the availability of financing. We will identify potential programs and strategies to reduce or remove identified constraints. This task will include all the analysis needed to comply with recent updates to state housing law.

Task 5 Deliverable:
− Included in the Administrative Draft of the Constraints chapter.

TASK 6. REVIEW OF EXISTING 2015-2023 HOUSING ELEMENT
PlaceWorks will work closely with the City to determine the status, effectiveness, and appropriateness of the previous housing programs. We will gather and document all available information regarding specific accomplishments. We will identify content to drop, change, or add. Findings from the evaluation will be detailed in a matrix to be included in the draft 187
CITY OF SOLEDAD Housing Element Update  5
Housing Element and used as a basis for program revisions for the remainder of the planning period. PlaceWorks will populate the first draft of this matrix with what has been written for the annual progress reports by staff. We will send the review matrix to the City to provide input before including it in the Administrative Draft Housing Element.

Task 6 Deliverable:
− Included in the Administrative Draft of the Review of Previous Housing Programs chapter.

TASK 7. SITES INVENTORY
We assume that the city will be able to identify enough sites to meet the 6th-cycle RHNA. We will work with City staff create an HCD-approved land inventory that includes current vacant sites.

Task 7.1 Housing Parcel Identification Analysis
PlaceWorks realizes that identifying adequate sites can be a large undertaking. We will build upon the current sites inventory and work with the City to determine which sites are still viable RHNA sites based on new state law requirements, including but not limited to:
 Additional analysis for sites smaller than one-half acre, larger than 10 acres  Additional analysis for underutilized sites
 Identify sites included in the past two housing element cycles that are now required to allow 20 percent affordable housing by-right
 Identify if sites are publicly owned
 Indicate whether a site has available or planned and accessible infrastructure PlaceWorks will work with the City to identify sites to meet the RHNA. For this task, our approach is as follows:
 Incorporate the RHNA for the 2023-2031 cycle.
 Document potential sites. We will prepare an inventory, map, and analysis clearly illustrating Soledad’s capacity to accommodate the new RHNA. In keeping with state law, PlaceWorks will document the realistic development capacity of each site and will prepare a map showing all identified sites.  Investigate alternative RHNA credits. This includes analyzing the capacity for alternative RHNA credits for ADUs and guest quarters, preservation of existing at-risk affordable housing projects, and other nontraditional RHNA credit opportunities.
 Ensure sites affirmatively further fair housing. We will work with the City to determine if the sites identified in the inventory are located throughout the community in a manner that affirmatively furthers fair housing.

Task 7.2 Underutilized Sites Analysis
PlaceWorks will complete an analysis of nonvacant/underutilized sites (these are sites that may currently have an existing structure but have additional capacity to include housing) to address a portion of the RHNA. As part of this analysis, we will analyze the realistic development potential within the planning period by considering the extent that an underutilized/nonvacant site’s existing use impedes additional residential development, the jurisdiction’s past experience converting existing uses to higher-density residential development, market trends and conditions, and regulatory or other incentives or standards that encourage additional housing development on any nonvacant sites.

Task 7.3 Demonstrate the Feasibility of Infill and Densities Less Than 20 du/acre An additional opportunity to meet the RHNA is to consider residentially zoned land that that does not meet the State’s default density of 20 units an acre. Typically, this is done by reviewing similarly situated built affordable housing projects in Soledad and the neighboring communities, calling local developers, and reviewing pro formas submitted to the City to infer development feasibility on sites that allow for less than 20 units an acre. Based on this research, we will discuss with City staff what opportunities there might be to include these sites in the land inventory to meet the lower-income RHNA. 188
6  Housing Element Update CITY OF SOLEDAD
Task 7.4 Infrastructure Analysis
PlaceWorks will work to determine if parcels in the inventory have sufficient water, sewer, and dry utilities available and accessible to support housing development. We will review existing general plan programs or other mandatory programs or plans to secure sufficient water, sewer, and dry utilities supply to support housing development on the site. The analysis will include sufficient detail to determine whether the service levels of water delivery/treatment systems and sewer treatment facilities are sufficient and have capacity to accommodate development on all identified sites to accommodate the RHNA.

Task 7.5 Financial and Programmatic Resources
PlaceWorks will update financial, physical, and programmatic resources available for affordable housing programs, including local and state funding programs and private-sector resources. We will assess current and potential housing programs to recommend future programs that will support the City’s housing objectives.

Task 7.6 Electronic Housing Element Site Inventory Form Pursuant to SB 6 (Chapter 667, Statutes of 2019), jurisdictions adopting a housing element on or after January 1, 2021, must prepare an electronic copy of the final inventory of parcels using HCD-approved Excel spreadsheets and must submit it to HCD with the housing element. PlaceWorks will prepare the electronic land inventory to submit to HCD upon adoption of the Housing Element.

Task 7 Deliverables:
− Administrative Draft of the Site Inventory chapter
− Site Inventory on HCD’s Electronic Inventory Form
TASK 8. HOUSING GOALS, POLICIES, PROGRAMS, AND QUANTIFIED OBJECTIVES PlaceWorks will work with City staff to update goals, policies, programs, and quantified objectives (pursuant to California Government Code Sections 65583 et seq.) to address identified housing needs and constraints based on the effectiveness and continued appropriateness of existing programs, information received through public outreach, the analysis of constraints, and findings from the needs assessment. Programs will describe specific steps for implementation and will identify a time frame and responsible department. Programs will address:
 New state requirements since adoption of the existing Housing Element.  Consistency and compliance with the rest of the City’s General Plan elements and community goals.  Development controls and regulatory incentives.
 Housing opportunities for all residents, including the elderly, those with disabilities, the homeless, and other special needs groups.
 Fair housing programs.
 Sources of affordable housing funding.
 Preservation and improvement of existing affordable housing.  Development of adequate housing and infrastructure to meet the needs of low- and moderate-income households, in keeping with the regional fair-share allocation.
 Mitigation of governmental constraints to providing and improving housing.

Task 8 Deliverable:
− Administrative Draft of the Goals, Policies, Programs and Quantified Objectives chapter. 189
CITY OF SOLEDAD Housing Element Update  7
TASK 9. DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT AND PUBLIC HEARINGS
Task 9.1 Administrative Draft
PlaceWorks will incorporate the feedback received during the community meetings and stakeholder consultations into a comprehensive, formatted Administrative Draft Housing Element. PlaceWorks will submit the Administrative Draft Housing Element to City staff for review as an electronic copy in Microsoft Word. Any outstanding data still needed from the City will be flagged so it can be addressed during City staff’s review. We request that we receive one consolidated set of City comments on the Administrative Draft.

Task 9.1 Deliverables:
− One electronic copy (in MS Word) of the Administrative Draft Housing Element.

Task 9.2 Public Review Draft
PlaceWorks will address staff comments on the Administrative Draft and reply to any questions. We will incorporate comments and revisions from staff’s review of the Administrative Draft, as directed. PlaceWorks will then prepare and submit a Public Review Draft Housing Element to present to at public hearings.

Task 9.2 Deliverables:
− One electronic copy (in MS Word and PDF) of the Public Review Draft Housing Element to be posted on the City’s website for 30 days at a minimum.

Task 9.3 HCD Review Draft
PlaceWorks will address public comments (no more than 4 hours) and incorporate them into the Public Review Draft and prepare a second Public Review Draft for submittal to HCD for review.

Task 9.3 Deliverables:
− One electronic copy (in MS Word and PDF) and one hard copy of the HCD Review draft to send to HCD with a cover letter for their 90-day review.

Task 9.4 2nd HCD Review Draft
PlaceWorks will work with City staff to address HCD’s comment and incorporate them into the 3rd Public Review for posting on the City’s website for 7 days and then for submittal to HCD for an additional 60-day review.

Task 9.4 Deliverables:
− One electronic copy (in MS Word and PDF) and one hard copy of track changes of the HCD Review draft to send to HCD with a cover letter for their 60-day review.

Task 9.5 Final Adoption and Certification
PlaceWorks will prepare a final Housing Element that incorporates changes to the HCD Draft from City staff, HCD, or public comments. PlaceWorks will submit the final Housing Element to HCD for final certification. The City will be responsible for submitting to the water/sewer district and OPR.

Task 9.5 Deliverables:
− Electronic copies and one hard copy of each version (in MS Word and web-supported PDF) of the final draft to the City and to HCD with a cover letter for their 60-day certification review. One clean version and one showing all changes made will be included.
190
8  Housing Element Update CITY OF SOLEDAD
TASK 10. STATE CERTIFICATION
PlaceWorks staff maintains strong working relationships with HCD reviewers. Our staff is very familiar with HCD’s processes, staff, and what steps need to be taken to ensure Housing Element certification.

PlaceWorks will serve as the City’s liaison to HCD. This service will include:
 Respond to comments on the first draft Housing Element from HCD (90-day initial review).  Respond to comments on the second draft Housing Element from HCD (60-day review).  Calls and emails with HCD staff to discuss comments.

Task 10 Deliverables:
− One hard copy and one electronic submittal to HCD, including cover letters of the Housing Element with highlighted changes and additions (and printed copies, required by HCD). − Emails and memoranda to address HCD questions and comments, as needed. − Memos with proposed revisions to the Housing Element resulting from HCD comments incorporated into the Housing Element in a tracked-changes format for review and approval by City staff.

TASK 11. CEQA COMPLIANCE
Task 11.1 Addendum
The focus of the project will be to update the General Plan to meet RHNA and ensure compliance with new regulations. The use of an Addendum builds on the investment in the General Plan made by the City, and significantly shortens the time period for consideration of the new Housing Element. Finally, provided that the City’s decision to use an Addendum is supported with substantial evidence in the record, the City’s decision enjoys the same substantial evidence level of challenge as the General Plan EIR.

PlaceWorks will provide an Administrative Draft Addendum following a format discussed during the kickoff meeting. Our default format for an Addendum is short and follows the findings in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 rather than using an initial study. If a formal initial study is requested, we will need to increase the budget and scope accordingly. We will use a copy of the certified General Plan EIR and findings of fact to inform the analysis portion of the Addendum. We will also include any local standards and ordinances that address physical changes to the environment. All significant impacts identified in the General Plan EIR will be reviewed in the context of the proposed changes. One administrative draft of the Addendum will be provided for review. The final draft of the Addendum will be used to support the CEQA determination during the hearing(s) for the Housing Element. PlaceWorks environmental staff will attend a Zoom meeting to answer questions regarding the Addendum. This scope does not include physical attendance at a meeting; however, we would be happy to amend the scope/budget to attend meetings in person.

Task 11.1 Deliverables:
− Administrative Draft Addendum, Public Draft Addendum, Assistance with Resolution and Staff Report Language.

Task 11.2 SB 18 and AB 52 Consultation
PlaceWorks will assist the City by completing the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) online form requesting a tribal contact list. Using the addresses on the list from NAHC, PlaceWorks will draft letters (for distribution on City letterhead) to each of the tribes on the NAHC list inquiring whether they want consultation. While not required for an Addendum, we recommend AB 52 notification to cover the rezoning activities. It’s a small additional scope and cost but can help relieve issues later in the process. To comply with AB 52, letters will be prepared for any tribes who have requested consultation pursuant to AB 52.

As consultation for AB 52 and Section 21080.3.1 of CEQA is a government-to-government process, it must be initiated by the local government agency, and counties are usually represented at the consultation(s). PlaceWorks can facilitate and 191
CITY OF SOLEDAD Housing Element Update  9
attend the consultation(s); however, the City must be represented. Pursuant to SB 18, tribes identified by NAHC will receive a written letter notifying them of the proposed project and asking if they wish to consult; tribes who notified the City under AB 52 will also be notified of the project and asked if they desire to consult in accordance with AB 52 and Sections 21080.3.1 and 21080.3.2 of CEQA. Following the consultation meeting (or conference call), PlaceWorks will provide the written outcome of the process and a record for the environmental documentation showing that AB 52 consultation has been completed. Completion of the AB 52 process is needed prior to circulation of the environmental document for public review.

Completion of the SB 18 process is needed prior to acting on the project.

Task 11.2 Deliverables:
− Draft letter to NAHC; Draft letters to identified tribes; Facilitation, attendance, and documentation of requested consultations; and Written results of consultation, including closure of AB 52 consultation. 192

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 6212, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad Approving a Biosolids Hauling and Disposal Contract Agreement with Holloway Environmental Solutions, LLC (Holloway), for $237,271.19, Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Said Agreement, and Approving a FY 24/25 Budget Amendment (Increase) in the Amount of $173,000
TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Carla James, Water Resources Manager
MEETING DATE: March 19, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 7.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and adopt Resolution No6212, “Approving a Biosolids Hauling and Disposal Contract Agreement with Holloway Environmental Solutions, LLC (Holloway), for the Amount of $237,271.19, Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Said Agreement, and Approving a FY 24/25 Budget Amendment (Increase) in the Amount of $173,000.”
Executive Summary
In the past, the City had contracted with the Salinas Valley Solid Waste Authority (SVSWA) to dispose of windrowed (dried) biosolids to be used as landfill alternative daily cover (ADC) at the Johnson Canyon Landfill. Prompted by recent regulatory requirements, the City was compelled to remove a backlog of stored biosolids in this fiscal year (FY) 2024/2025 in order to avoid potential fines. In addition, based on an earlier assessment by Cannon Corporation, the best alternative to biosolids handling was to change to direct disposal of biosolids with higher moisture content using Holloway Environmental Services, LLC (Holloway) for hauling and disposal. This combination of changes has resulted in the need for increased disposal services and increased costs that exceed the budgeted amount for disposal earmarked in the FY 2024/2025 budget. Staff is recommending that the Council approve a formal contract for disposal services with Holloway and a budget amendment to cover two outstanding invoices plus projected costs through the end of the fiscal year.

Background
Sewage sludge is the semi-solid, nutrient-rich product that is the result of separating liquids from solids during wastewater treatment. Sewage sludge is more commonly referred to as biosolids. Biosolids 207
generated at the City of Soledad Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) had historically been moved from the screw press dewatering unit to open areas at the WRF and mechanically dried via windrow processing before being hauled offsite for disposal. A significant tonnage of biosolids had been stored onsite at the WRF despite annual hauling and disposal. In addition, the windrow processing was a timeconsuming effort, requiring a lot of staff time and equipment usage and maintenance.

From 2020 through mid-2023, windrowed biosolids had been hauled to the Salinas Valley Solid Waste Authority’s (SVSWA’s) Johnson Canyon Landfill and used as “alternative daily cover” (ADC). ADC afforded the City a significant discount over standard tipping fees for biosolids disposal.

The Johnson Canyon Landfill is a Class III landfill facility with waste management units (WMUs) approved for discharge and disposal of nonhazardous solid waste and municipal solid waste (MSW) pursuant to the California Code of Regulations (CCR), Title 27, and pursuant to Code of Federal Regulations (CRF), Title 40, Part 258, and is subject to groundwater monitoring requirements.

On September 25, 2020, the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Central Coast Region, issued General Waste Discharge Requirements Order R3-2020-0001 (Order) for Active Class III Landfills in the Central Coast Region. Enrollment in the Order was phased in, with the Order modified for Johnson Canyon Landfill on November 14, 2022, designating a new monitoring and reporting program (MRP). Within the MRP requirements were stringent waste acceptance criteria for solid wastes designated as ADC. In 2023, the City’s biosolids analytical profile did not meet the stringent solid wastes standards to be used as ADC and the City was left with a landfill disposal option only.

However, the landfill option at Johnson Canyon Landfill required a biosolids matrix containing no more than 50 percent (%) moisture.

During that timeframe, the City entered into an agreement with Cannon Corporation (Cannon) to investigate an alternative disposal option whereby biosolids are directly hauled and disposed of without windrowing. Compared to windrowing, the direct disposal option would result in a moisture content closer to 85%. Cannon determined that the direct disposal of biosolids with a higher moisture content was less costly than windrowing after considering staff labor and equipment maintenance costs.

Cannon identified two potential vendors for the direct disposal option – Holloway Environmental Services, LLC (Holloway), and Synagro Corporation (Synagro). At the time of Cannon’s investigation, Holloway’s price per Ton was $61, compared to Synagro at $90 per Ton, a significant difference.

In late 2023, the City asked Holloway to periodically haul and dispose of the City’s biosolids in Holloway’s Industrial Waste Landfill in Lost Hills, CA, which has different regulatory requirements than a MSW landfill facility, including the ability to accept biosolids with high moisture content.

Holloway’s hauling services were paid on an invoice-received basis from funds earmarked in the budget for biosolids disposal.

In 2024, a regulatory site visit by the California State Water Resource Control Board – Central Coast Region was conducted at the City of Soledad’s Water Reclamation Facility (WRF). The regulator identified an excessive amount of biosolids being stored in unlined areas at the WRF that posed a significant threat to groundwater quality and recommended that the biosolids be removed and disposed of as soon as possible. Contamination of the groundwater exposed the City to potential fines.

WRF staff made concerted efforts in October and December 2024, and again in January and February 2025 to remove the last remaining biosolids stored in unlined areas of the WRF, which has resulted in costs that exceed the budgeted amount for biosolids disposal in Fiscal Year (FY) 2024/2025. 208
Review & Analysis
In FY 2020/2021 and FY 2021/2022 biosolids disposed of at the Johnson Canyon Landfill were charged a rate of $36/Ton by the SVSWA. Hauling was performed by Keith Day Trucking at a rate of $175 per truckload until May 2022, when the hauling rate was doubled to $350 per truckload.

In September of 2022 (fiscal year 2022/2023), the rate charged by the SVSWA for biosolids disposal at the Johnson Canyon Landfill increased from $36/Ton to $64.75/Ton. This increase necessitated a budget increase from $45,000 in FY 2022/2023 to $105,000 in FY 2023/2024. The $64.75/Ton rate charged by the SVSWA was comparable to the updated $64.50/Ton rate proposed by Holloway. In 2023, City staff decided to use Holloway’s special services on an “invoice-received” basis.

In FY 2024/2025, the biosolids disposal budget was increased again – from $105,000 to $131,250 – but has now been found to be insufficient to cover the concerted effort to haul and dispose of biosolids stored at the WRF. October 2024, December 2024, January 2025, and February 2025 hauling and disposal by Holloway has resulted in another 23, 17, 47, and 27 truckloads, respectively, for a combined truckload count of 114 year-to-date – almost equal to the combined number of truckloads during the previous three fiscal years.

The table below summarizes fiscal year budgeted and actual spent amounts allocated to biosolids hauling and disposal by the City, along with the number of truckloads removed from the WRF.

Fiscal Year Budget Actual Spent No. of Truckloads
2020/2021 $40,000 $27,505 data unavailable
2021/2022 $40,000 $38,836 43
2022/2023 $45,000 $40,602 24
2023/2024 $105,000 $109,747 49
2024/2025 $131,205 $193,445.83* 114
*year-to-date (YTD) spending based on four invoices – two paid and two outstanding (shown below) Holloway has invoiced the City four times so far in FY 2024/2025:

1. October 2024 INV-HES-3065 for $37,755.08 (PAID)

2. December 2024 INV-HES-3223 for $29,081.76 (PAID)

3. January 2025 INV-HES-3276 for $81,133.26 (OUTSTANDING)

4. February 2025 INV-HES-3314 for $45,475.73 (OUTSTANDING) After subtracting the combined amount paid for the October and December 2024 Holloway invoices ($66,836.84) from the budget line item of $131,250, the amount remaining is $64,413.16 – not enough to cover the January 2025 and February 2025 Holloway invoices, which have a combined total of $126,608.99. The budget exceedance (shortage amount) is $62,195.83.

Based on 2024/2025 data, the average biosolids truckload weight is 27 Tons. With another 18 weeks remaining in FY 2024/2025, at a frequency of three-times weekly, the total weight to be hauled and disposed of is estimated to be 1,458 Tons. Holloway’s February 28, 2025 proposal (Proposal No. 25- 006.00) has increased to $69/Ton based on the following rate structure. The hauling fee of $44/Ton is based on prevailing wage.
209
Gate Fee: $25/Ton
Hauling Fee: $44/Ton
Total Fee: $69/Ton
(24 Ton Minimum Per Truckload)
Calculating 1,458 Tons with the updated pricing schedule of $69/Ton, the estimated cost to the City is $100,602 for the remaining four months (March, April, May, June 2025), and therefore, $110,662.20 would provide a ten-percent buffer on that estimate.

This amendment request for an increase of $173,000 would be to cover the budget exceedance of $62,195.83 resulting from the outstanding January and February 2025 invoices, plus the anticipated amount of $110,662.20 for hauling and disposal in the remainder of the fiscal year (2024/2025). Due to the amount the City is paying for the referenced hauling services, Staff is recommending that we abandon the invoice-received method of payment and enter into a formal contract for services with Holloway through the end of the 2024/2025 FY. The City has prepared a standard agreement/contract with Holloway retroactive to January of 2025 to cover the January and February invoices, plus future March, April, May, and June 2025 hauling and disposal costs.

For FY 2025/2026, the City plans to move forward with a bid process to locate additional vendors for a cost comparison of biosolids disposal services prior to entering into a new disposal agreement. In addition, to keep biosolids from being moved to unlined areas of the WRF (which is against regulatory guidelines), City staff has transitioned to collecting biosolids directly into truck bins from the screwpress dewatering unit, skipping the windrowing process. This change will result in less equipment maintenance costs and less staff time costs, as per the Cannon assessment recommendation.

Financial Considerations
A budget amendment of $173,000 is needed to cover the difference between the originally approved budget and the actual cost of sludge hauling services required for the remainder of FY 2024/25.

Staff recommends increasing the Wastewater Fund – Sludge Hauling line item (310-0000-52526) from $131,250 to $304,250 to ensure adequate funding for these essential services.

Alternatives
Approve the recommended resolution.

Do not approve the attached resolution. This is not recommended as the City has two outstanding invoices to be paid to Holloway that are not sufficiently covered by the current biosolids disposal budget, plus the need for additional sludge hauling and disposal to keep unlined WRF areas free of biosolids accumulation.

Planning/CEQA
The Contract/Agreement is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378). Because the matter does not cause a direct or foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be subjected to CEQA Review. 210

WHEREAS, Cannon identified two potential vendors for the direct disposal option – Holloway Environmental Services, LLC (Holloway), and Synagro Corporation (Synagro); and.

WHEREAS, the City asked Holloway, based in Lost Hills, California, to haul and dispose of the City’s biosolids in their Industrial Waste Landfill, which has different regulatory requirements than a MSW landfill facility, including the ability to accept biosolids with high moisture content; and
WHEREAS, Holloway services to the City have exceeded the allotted budget line item of $131,250 for FY 2024/2025 by $62,195.83; and,
WHEREAS, the City needs to pay two outstanding invoices as well as allocate funds towards the continued hauling and disposal of biosolids by Holloway; and, WHEREAS, therefore, staff recommends Council approve an increase in Sewer Fund line item 310-000-52526 from $131,000 to $304,250 and enter into an agreement/contract with Holloway to provide services for the remainder of FY 2024/2025; and 212
WHEREAS, the proposed hauling contract for services with Holloway is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378). Because the matter does not cause a direct or foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Soledad that the Council approves a Biosolids Hauling and Disposal Contract Agreement with Holloway Environmental Solutions, LLC (Holloway), for $237,271.19, and authorizes and directs the City Manager to execute said agreement of behalf of the City.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council approves a FY 24/25 Budget Amendment (Increase) to Line Item 310-000-52526 in the amount of $173,000 to cover biosolids hauling costs through June 30 of 2025.

Section 5. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONSULTANT’S RESPONSIBILITIES.

Consultant shall indemnify, defend with counsel acceptable to City, and hold harmless City and its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers from and against any and all liability, loss, damage, claims, expenses, and costs (including without limitation, attorney’s fees and costs and fees of litigation) (collectively, “Liability”) of every nature arising out of or in connection with Consultant’s performance of the Services or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this Agreement, except such Liability caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of City.

The Consultant’s obligation to defend and indemnify shall not be excused because of the Consultant’s inability to evaluate Liability or because the Consultant evaluates Liability and determines that the Consultant is not liable to the claimant. The Consultant must respond within 30 days, to the tender of any claim for defense and indemnity by the City, unless this time has been extended by the City. If the Consultant fails to accept or reject a tender of defense and indemnity within 30 days, in addition to any other remedy authorized by law, so much of the money due the Consultant under and by virtue of this Agreement as shall reasonably be considered necessary by the City, may be retained by the City until disposition has been made of the claim or suit for damages, or until the Consultant accepts or rejects the tender of defense, whichever occurs first.

With respect to third party claims against the Consultant, the Consultant waives any and all rights of any type to express or implied indemnity against the Indemnitees.

Notwithstanding the forgoing, to the extent this Agreement is a “construction contract” as defined by California Civil Code Section 2782, as may be amended from time to time, such duties of consultant to indemnify shall not apply when to do so would be prohibited by California Civil Code Section 2782.

In the event that Consultant or any employee, agent, or subcontractor of Consultant providing services under this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or the California Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) to be eligible for enrollment in PERS as an employee of City, Consultant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City for the payment of any employee and/or employer contributions for PERS benefits on behalf of Consultant or its employees, agents, or subcontractors, as well as for the payment of any penalties and interest on such contributions, which would otherwise be the responsibility of City.
