TO: Honorable Mayor Anna Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Beatriz Trujillo, Community and Economic Development Director, Ariana Mora, Senior Planner
MEETING DATE: May 21, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

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

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and adopt Resolution No.6228, "Approving and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Professional Services Agreement with EMC Planning Group, Inc. in an Amount Not to exceed $120,000 to Provide Planning Services for the Renewable Oasis Truck Stop Project".

Executive Summary
1850 Properties ("Developer") submitted an application for the development of a Renewable Oasis Truck Stop ("Project") on a 19.33-acre site located at the corner of H. De La Rosa St. and Nestles Rd. (APN 022-224-005). The Project proposes gasoline, diesel, and hydrogen fueling pumps for both passenger vehicles and trucks, a convenience store, a quick-serve restaurant, a truck maintenance and wash facility, a rest area, and truck parking areas. EMC, an authorized City planning services provider, has provided a proposal for an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) totaling $115,250 for the Project. Staff is proposing a new standalone contract in an amount not to exceed $120,000 to cover the IS/MND cost and a contingency for this Project. These services will be fully funded by the Developer through an existing Reimbursement Agreement that is already in place.

Background
In November 2023, 1850 Properties ("Developer") submitted an application to the City of Soledad for the proposed Soledad Renewable Oasis Project ("Project"). The Project site is located at 701 Nestles Road in Monterey County and encompasses approximately 20 acres of undeveloped land. The proposed development includes the construction of a truck depot and associated infrastructure, incorporating renewable energy components intended to support sustainable transportation and 44 commercial operations. The Project is designed to serve the operational needs of the trucking industry while incorporating features that may reduce environmental impacts.

As proposed, the Project reflects an effort to balance commercial development with environmental considerations. The Project is intended to serve long-haul truck drivers, local traffic, and travelers along Highway 101 by providing a range of services, including fuel, vehicle maintenance, dining options, and a rest area. The development will include both conventional and renewable energy features, with the goal of supporting a more sustainable and forward-looking transportation hub.

The City has been contracting with EMC Planning Group ("EMC") for periodic planning assistance as development projects arise since 2016. In response to a solicitation from the City, EMC provided a proposal for the IS in support of a MND for the Project. This proposal is included as Attachment 1 for City Council review and consideration. Approval of the proposal would be authorized through an executed standard City contract, provided as Exhibit A.

Review & Analysis
As noted above, EMC has submitted a proposal to prepare an IS for the Project in accordance with CEQA. The purpose of the IS is to evaluate potential environmental impacts associated with the project and to determine the appropriate level of environmental documentation—either a Negative Declaration (ND), Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND), or Environmental Impact Report (EIR).

Commercial truck stop developments, such as the proposed project, have the potential to result in various environmental impacts, including increased air emissions from heavy-duty vehicles, noise from continuous operations, traffic and circulation effects, and the use and storage of hazardous materials related to fueling and maintenance. Other areas of consideration include water quality, greenhouse gas emissions, biological resources, and land use compatibility. The IS provides a framework for assessing these impacts and identifying mitigation measures where necessary. It also facilitates early input from public agencies and the community to ensure environmental considerations are addressed prior to project approval.

Based on the preliminary review, City staff anticipates that preparation of an IS/MND will be sufficient to meet CEQA requirements. However, if it is later determined that the Project may result in significant and unavoidable impacts, an EIR would be required. In that case, the scope of work and budget would need to be amended to include additional technical studies and the preparation of a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program.

EMC’s proposal is to prepare the Project IS/MND for the amount of $115,250, with a contract term through December 31, 2025. The proposal is included as Attachment 1, and the draft agreement is provided as Exhibit A. To allow flexibility for unforeseen circumstances, the staff recommends that the City Council approve a not-to-exceed amount of $120,000, which will be 100% funded by the developer.

Approval of the agreement will enable staff to initiate the technical work necessary to complete the IS/MND and move the project forward. The associated entitlement process, including the Conditional Use Permit (CUP), is currently on hold pending completion and certification of the environmental document. Final project consideration, including approval of the CUP and certification of the IS/MND, is anticipated to be brought before the City Council later this year following a recommendation from the Planning Commission, pursuant to Title 17 (Zoning) of the Soledad Municipal Code.

The Developer has reviewed and agreed to the terms outlined in Attachment 2. Staff recommends that 45 Resolution No. 6228
Exhibit A
Renewable Oasis Truck Stop - EMC proposal
Soledad Renewable Truck Depot
the City Council authorize the execution of the agreement to allow environmental review to proceed.

The Project is intended to meet the City’s Economic Development goals by serving truck drivers, local traffic, and Highway 101 travelers with a full range of services, including fueling, maintenance, dining, and rest areas. It will incorporate both conventional and renewable energy features to support a more sustainable and future-oriented transportation hub.

Financial Considerations
The budget for the proposed scope of work from EMC Planning Group is $115,250. However, staff recommends that the agreement be approved for an amount not to exceed $120,000 to allow for contingencies in case additional technical support is needed. The developer will fully fund the costs for this agreement through an existing executed reimbursement agreement managed by the Community and Economic Development Department. The developer has been working with the city to maintain sufficient funds in the project’s reimbursement account. Upon approval of this agreement, the applicant will be required to deposit additional funding. Insufficient funds in the developer’s account will prompt the Community and Economic Development Director to halt work until adequate funds are deposited.

If this project is developed, it could generate significant sales tax revenue and an increase in property taxes for the city.

Alternatives
Approve the Resolution.

Modify the Resolution and provide other direction to Staff.

Deny the Resolution. This is not recommended as the Staff would have to pause this project, which advances the City's economic development goals.

Planning/CEQA
The proposed agreement in itself is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA( (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378). Rather, approval of the agreement would allow the City to initiate the EIR in order to comply with CEQA.

Public Notice Requirements
None required.

This indemnification obligation is not limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages or compensation payable to or for Engineer or its agents or employees under Workers’ Compensation acts, disability benefits acts, or other employee benefit acts. This indemnification obligation is not limited by any limitation on the amount or type of damages available under any applicable insurance coverage and shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Agreement with respect to Liability arising during the term of the Agreement.

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.

1.0 Introduction and Project Understanding

1.1 Location and Existing Conditions
1850 Properties proposes to develop approximate 19.33-acre parcel located at 701 Nestles Road (APN 022-224-005). The project site is largely vacant and unimproved, with the exception of three agricultural-industrial buildings, according to the project plans and GoogleEarth 2023 aerial photography (former Sequoia Lumber Company). The project site is surrounded by development, with limited undeveloped land to the northeast and southeast.

The Project focuses on highway and industrial oriented businesses and uses which will cater to travelers in cars, recreational vehicles, busses, and trucks.

1.2 Previously-Proposed Project
In 2017, the City of Soledad contracted with EMC Planning Group to assist the City with application processing and environmental review for a proposed event center (aka Massa Event Center, High Peaks Event Center, Swap Meet/Flea Market Facility) at the project site. The applicant pulled their application prior to completion of the initial study.

1.3 Project Overview
The project overview and site plan features were developed using the PDF titled “Project Description September 2024.”
The Soledad Renewable Oasis project will redevelop approximately 19.33 acres of unimproved land located at 701 Nestles Road. The project is divided into two primary parcels:
 Parcel A (Truck Stop): 16.81 acres
 Parcel B (Hydrogen Refueling): 2.52 acres.

This facility will serve long-haul truckers, local traffic, and passengers along Highway 101 with a comprehensive set of services, including refueling, maintenance, dining, and rest areas. The development will incorporate both traditional and renewable energy elements, aiming to create a sustainable and future-forward travel plaza.

1.4 Site Plan Features

1. Fueling Stations and Hydrogen Refueling. These facilities will cater to traditional fuel needs while incorporating future-ready hydrogen refueling for trucks and vehicles.  Hydrogen Dispensers: four (4) heavy-duty hydrogen dispensers and four (4) retail hydrogen dispensers.
66 Section 1.0 Introduction and Understanding 1-2 EMC Planning Group Soledad Renewable Oasis Truck Stop IS/MND Proposal May 7, 2025  Diesel Dispensers: seven (7) diesel fuel dispensers strategically placed for efficient refueling.

2. Convenience Store and Quick-Serve Restaurant. The site includes a 15,500-square-foot convenience store combined with a 2,400-square-foot quick-serve restaurant (QSR), designed to serve both local customers and travelers. The store will provide essential goods and a variety of dining options.

3. Truck Maintenance and Wash Facility. A 16,870-square-foot, six (6)-bay truck maintenance facility will be constructed to offer services such as minor repairs and a truck wash bay, which will utilize reclaimed water.

4. Parking and Rest Area. The development provides parking for both trucks and passenger vehicles. Parking spaces for trucks with trailers, alongside hydrogen and diesel dispensers, will ensure ample and efficient service capacity. Truckers can utilize these areas for rest during their mandated breaks.

5. Pylon Signage. A Freeway Pylon Sign (approximately 85 feet) will be installed for visibility from the highway, advertising the facility's offerings and aiding in the navigation for trucks and vehicles.

6. Renewable Energy Integration. Solar panels installed at strategic locations across the site will provide renewable energy for both vehicle charging stations and operational needs, ensuring a sustainable energy supply.

Soledad Renewable Oasis Truck Stop IS/MND Proposal May 7, 2025

2.0 Scope of Work
The City has indicated that it will require CEQA documentation for the proposed project and that it expects that an initial study/mitigated negative declaration (IS/MND) will suffice as that documentation. If it is determined that the potential for significant impacts exist, an environmental impact report would be required. If so, an amendment to the proposed scope of work and budget would be required. EMC Planning Group will also prepare response to public comments and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP).

The proposed tasks are presented below.

Task 1 Project Management/Consultation
This task includes coordinating staff, general management and administration, contract management and invoicing, and consulting with City staff on CEQA issues.

Task 2 Research and Development
This task includes a thorough review of the application materials and plans as well as any other documents applicable to the proposed project.

The scope of work assumes that City staff will conduct tribal consultation and will provide a summary of the consultation process to be included in the initial study.

Task 3 Administrative Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
EMC Planning Group will prepare the administrative draft IS/MND and provide one (1) electronic version to City staff for review and comment. EMC Planning Group will also prepare the draft MND and submit one (1) electronic version for review and comment by City staff. The initial study will address all of the topics in the initial study checklist, but is expected to focus on the following topics:

Task 3.1 Biological Resource Analysis
Based on a preliminary review of aerial photographs, the proposed project may impact abandoned industrial buildings, disked fallow agricultural land, and annual grassland. According to the California Natural Diversity Database (California Department of Fish and Wildlife 2025), there are a number of special-status species with the potential to occur within the project area, including:
 Monterey spineflower (Chorizanthe pungens var. pungens); 68 Section 2.0 Scope of Work 2-2 EMC Planning Group
Soledad Renewable Oasis Truck Stop IS/MND Proposal May 7, 2025  Crotch's bumble bee (Bombus crotchii);
 Western spadefoot (Spea hammondii);
 Tricolored blackbird (Agelaius tricolor);
 American badger (Taxidea taxus);
 Townsend's big-eared bat (Corynorhinus townsendii);
 San Joaquin kit fox (Vulpes macrotis mutica); and
 Protected nesting birds and raptors.

This evaluation will assess potential habitat present for special-status species in the area and recommend mitigation measures for the protection of biological resources. If suitable habitat is identified, recommendations may also include the need for additional specific or protocol-level surveys to be conducted during an appropriate time of year.

The following subtasks include reviewing biological databases, preliminary site plans and relevant reports, and conducting a reconnaissance-level biological survey. Results of research and the site survey will be reported in the biological resources section of the initial study.

Research
Compile and review available project information, including preliminary site plans and aerial photographs. Conduct a review to determine the special-status species that have been recorded as occurring within the general project vicinity based on current database searches of California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s California Natural Diversity Database, the California Native Plant Society Rare and Endangered Plant Inventory, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Information for Planning and Consultation database, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s National Wetlands Inventory; and other biological studies conducted in the vicinity of the project site, if available.

Reconnaissance-level Field Survey
Complete a reconnaissance-level field survey to: (1) identify and map the principal plant communities; (2) assess the potential for special-status species and their habitats, wildlife movement corridors, potentially jurisdictional wetlands and waterways, regulated trees, and other significant biological resources to occur; and (3) identify and map any observed locations of special-status species and/or habitats. Plant and wildlife species observed during the survey will be recorded in field notes. Any special-status species observed will be reported to the California Natural Diversity Database in compliance with California Department of Fish and Wildlife permit requirements, after the information is provided to the client.

Initial Study Section
Prepare the biological resources section of the initial study, describing existing habitats and plant and animal species found on the project site, and the occurrence of and/or potential for special-status species and their habitats. If needed, one or more figures will be prepared to illustrate habitat types 69 Section 2.0 Scope of Work 2-3 EMC Planning Group
Soledad Renewable Oasis Truck Stop IS/MND Proposal May 7, 2025 and the location(s) of special-status species occurring on or in the vicinity of the project site.

Potential impacts to biological resources will be identified, and mitigation measures will be provided to minimize potential impacts when possible.

Note: Focused surveys for specific plant and/or animal species are not included in this proposed scope of work. The presence or absence of certain species can be determined during the reconnaissance-level site assessment. If appropriate habitat for other sensitive species is observed during the site assessment, species-specific surveys may be required (i.e., surveys for annual plants not in bloom at the time of the reconnaissance-level survey, protocol-level surveys for special-status wildlife species, etc.).

Task 3.2 Cultural Analysis (Historic Archaeological and Unique Archaeological Resources)
Archival Research
This task includes a review of available background research including site plans, maps, and aerial photographs of the parcel. Also included is an archival search of the database of the California Historical Resources Information System, affiliated with the California Office of Historic Preservation, and a Sacred Lands search with the Native American Heritage Commission, to determine if any known archaeological, historical, Sacred Sites, or Tribal Cultural Resources are recorded on or within a quarter mile of the project boundary.

Pedestrian Survey
This task involves conducting a reconnaissance-level archaeological pedestrian survey of the project area, including the areas considered for the new buildings, other amenities, and overall site improvements. The purpose of the reconnaissance survey is to determine if surface indicators of historic or prehistoric archaeological resources are present. The presence of surface materials, could indicate additional subsurface prehistoric or historic archaeological resources. This budget assumes that no significant cultural material will be encountered. If significant material culture is encountered, a new scope and budget may be required in order to properly assess the finds.

Task 3.3 Air Quality, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, and Energy Analyses This analysis consists of emissions modeling, evaluation of air quality impacts using the Monterey Bay Air Resources District (“air district”) guidelines, greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) analysis using currently-accepted industry methodologies, and an evaluation of energy impacts. Illingworth & Rodkin would be assisting EMC Planning Group with this effort. Their detailed scope of work, which includes modeling and a health risk assessment, is included in Attachment A.

Air Quality
The proposed project is located in the North Central Coast Air Basin (air basin), which falls under the authority of the air district. Therefore, the analysis will reference the air district’s 2008 CEQA Air Quality Guidelines, as well as other relevant CEQA documents. The air district provides project level thresholds of significance that can be used to evaluate the potential significance of individual 70 Section 2.0 Scope of Work 2-4 EMC Planning Group
Soledad Renewable Oasis Truck Stop IS/MND Proposal May 7, 2025 project impacts. Criteria air emissions and GHG emissions modeling using the California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod) will be conducted by Illingworth & Rodkin. Baseline condition air emissions volumes will also be modeled and reductions in air emission volumes from incorporating solar power generation into the project design will be calculated. Net air emissions volumes will be compared to the air district thresholds of significance.

As also outlined in its scope of work, Illingworth and Rodkin will prepare construction and operational health risk assessments. Construction activities will produce toxic air contaminants, primarily from diesel powered construction equipment. Toxic air contaminants will also be produced during project operations, primarily from fugitive fueling activities, and truck movements and idling. At high enough concentrations over periods of time, these emissions have potential to adversely affect the health of sensitive receptors (residents located to the east of the site) and potentially workers in nearby commercial and industrial businesses. In many air districts, truck stop projects commonly are considered potentially significant sources of toxic air contaminants. While the air district does not provide specific guidance on health risks for such uses, it would be prudent to include these analyses due to the scrutiny a project of this type and size may undergo.

The following tasks will be undertaken:
 Briefly describe the physical and climatological characteristics of the air basin, existing air pollutant conditions, and health effects of air pollutants;  Review current air district documents, policies, and regulatory requirements applicable to the proposed project;
 Utilize the CalEEMod results and off model quantification of emissions offsets from on-site renewable energy to quantify the net change in criteria air pollutant emissions and compare the findings to the air district’s thresholds of significance to assess whether the proposed project would result in significant impacts from criteria air pollutant emissions;  Review the results of the health risk assessment conducted by Illingworth & Rodkin (scope of work presented further below) and describe project sources of hazardous air pollutants, their associated health risks, and existing or planned nearby sensitive receptors that could be impacted, and identify significant impacts; and
 If necessary, identify mitigation measures to reduce criteria air emission and/or health risk impact significance.

It should be noted that use of hydrogen as a transportation fuel, particularly as a replacement for diesel-powered trucks, has potential to reduce criteria air emissions from mobile sources. However, commercialization and use of hydrogen for this purpose is in its very early stages. Therefore, it may be speculative to assume that this component of the project will result in measurable fuel substitution that can be defended as a source of reduced criteria air emissions or GHG emissions. 71 Section 2.0 Scope of Work 2-5 EMC Planning Group
Soledad Renewable Oasis Truck Stop IS/MND Proposal May 7, 2025 Construction Health Risk Assessment
The proposed project would be constructed near existing receptors (i.e., employees working and residences living nearby). Therefore, a construction health risk assessment is proposed. This would involve dispersion modeling. Emissions obtained from CalEEMod would be used to develop construction period emission rates based on project-specific information. Dispersion modeling would be conducted using EPA’s AERMOD model and hourly meteorological data from the most representative meteorological station, where data is provided. The construction dispersion modeling would assume all of the construction happens at the same time. Cancer risks will be calculated using the modeled construction-period diesel particulate matter concentrations following the air district risk management policy guidance. The risks would then be compared against air district’s CEQA thresholds (i.e., cancer risk and non-cancer hazards). Measures that may be necessary to reduce construction exhaust emissions or cancer risks would be identified.

Operational Health Risk Assessment
The proposed project would be operating near existing businesses and single-family homes (i.e., sensitive receptors) about 100 to 1,000 feet from the project, depending on the development plans.

For these reasons, a health risk assessment should be conducted for the project that includes toxic air contaminant (TAC) emissions associated with project operations (i.e., emissions from diesel trucks, gasoline vehicles, delivery trucks, and fuel pumps/tanks). The refined health risk assessment would be performed that includes both emissions and dispersion modeling using the EMFAC2021 emission factor model and the AERMOD dispersion model. TAC emissions would be estimated based on project-specific information provided by the project applicant and the project’s traffic study. Dispersion modeling would then be conducted using EPA’s AERMOD model and hourly meteorological data available from the most representative meteorological station. Cancer risks and non-cancer risks will be calculated using the modeled pollutant concentrations following the air district’s risk management policy guidance. The risks would then be compared against air district’s CEQA thresholds (i.e., cancer risk and non-cancer hazards). Measures that may be necessary to reduce construction exhaust emissions or cancer risks would be identified.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions
The proposed project will generate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions during both construction and operations. During construction, emissions will result from off-road sources (e.g., heavy equipment, trucks, and other machinery) and on-road sources (e.g., haul trucks and worker vehicles). During operations, mobile source, building energy source, and area source emissions will be generated.

The GHG impacts of a project can be found to be less than significant if the project is consistent with a qualified plan for reducing GHG emissions. However, neither the City nor the air district have developed detailed guidance or plans for assessing the GHG impacts of new land use projects.

In such circumstances, the City may reference the guidance developed by other agencies, provided that guidance is supported by substantial evidence. Guidance developed by the San Luis Obispo Air Pollution Control District in its 2023 CEQA Greenhouse Gas Thresholds & Guidance for the San Luis 72 Section 2.0 Scope of Work 2-6 EMC Planning Group
Soledad Renewable Oasis Truck Stop IS/MND Proposal May 7, 2025 Obispo County Air Pollution Control District would be used for this purpose. This approach has precedent for the City as it is being used in the CEQA documentation for the Almond Acres project being prepared by EMC Planning Group. The guidance includes an absolute (“bright line”) quantified threshold of significance, and a GHG efficiency-based quantified threshold of significance. Net GHG emissions volumes quantified through CalEEMod modeling and out-ofmodel calculations related to GHG off-sets from proposed renewable energy sources, will be evaluated against the selected threshold of significance.

The GHG analysis will include the following tasks:
 Briefly summarize the existing climate change setting at the global, state and local levels;  Briefly summarize the existing climate change policy and regulatory setting, including review of state and local legislation and regulations;
 Quantify baseline GHG emissions and the GHG emissions offset resulting from the application of solar generated power;
 Briefly summarize San Luis Obispo Air Pollution Control District GHG thresholds guidance and determine the appropriate threshold to use in the analysis;  Compare net GHG emissions volume to the applicable threshold to determine if the proposed project would result in a significant impact; and  Propose mitigation measures, if necessary, to reduce significant impacts and conduct another model run to determine whether mitigations, if required, reduce impacts to less than significant.

Energy
Energy will be required for both the construction and operation of the project. During construction, fuel will be consumed by vehicles and machinery traveling to and from the site, as well as for equipment used in the building process. During operations, electricity will be needed for hydrogen production, lighting, HVAC systems, and other building functions.

The thresholds of significance for energy impacts are qualitative. Consequently, potential impacts will be discussed qualitatively. The proposed project will be required to comply with uniformly applied regulations and potentially to reduce criteria air emissions and/or GHG emission via measures that also reduce energy demand; applicable regulations and air quality and GHG reduction measures will be discussed to identify how energy demand will be moderated. The project potential to result in wasteful or inefficient energy use will be evaluated in the context of these variables, whether the proposed development type (and its energy demand) can be characterized as unnecessary or wasteful.
73 Section 2.0 Scope of Work 2-7 EMC Planning Group
Soledad Renewable Oasis Truck Stop IS/MND Proposal May 7, 2025 Energy demand for the proposed project will be calculated and reported based on the CalEEMod results provided by Illingworth & Rodkin. Vehicle miles traveled taken from the same CalEEMod results will serve as an input for estimating the volume transportation fuel consumption using the Emissions Factor Model. Energy demand offset from on-site renewable energy will also be accounted for.

The following tasks will be completed:
 Report energy demand from on-site use of natural gas and electricity based on the CalEEMod results;
 Identify transportation fuel demand based on Emissions Factors model results;  Identify current regulatory requirements that would reduce energy demand;  Identify energy demand reduction measures being proposed by the project applicant and on-site energy generation plans;
 Describe energy demand reduction that would occur with implementing air quality and/or GHG mitigation measures, if any;
 Identify the significance of energy impacts; and
 Present mitigation measures to reduce energy consumption, if necessary.

Task 3.4 Transportation/VMT Analysis (Hexagon)
Hexagon Transportation Consultants will conduct a vehicle miles traveled (VMT) screening for the proposed project. Per OPR’s recommendations, retail uses of less than 50,000 s.f., can be considered local serving and be considered to have a less than significant impact on VMT. However, given that the project site will be located adjacent to a regional highway facility and will cater to regional travelers it may not be considered “local-serving.” Rather, it would be expected that the majority of trips generated by the proposed site uses would primarily consist of vehicles already traveling along the adjacent US 101 highway. This will be qualitatively discussed in the report.

Hexagon will also conduct a traffic operations analysis to evaluate the effects of the proposed project on key intersection in the vicinity of the project area. Finally, Hexagon will conduct a signal and stop sign warrant analysis, evaluate the project’s effect on bicycle, pedestrian, and transit facilities, and evaluate site access, on-site circulation, and parking. Hexagon’s detailed scope of work is provided in Attachment B.

Task 3.5 Environmental Noise Assessment (WJV Acoustics) WJV Acoustics will conduct a site inspection to evaluate the acoustical characteristics of the project site and surrounding area, analyze potential project-related changes in roadway traffic noise exposure along roadways near or adjacent to the project site, evaluate potential noise impacts from the project as they may affect existing noise-sensitive uses in the project area, quantify noise and vibration levels that would likely occur during construction of the project as they could affect nearby existing or planned noise-sensitive receptors, and prepare recommendations for noise mitigation as may be 74 Section 2.0 Scope of Work 2-8 EMC Planning Group
Soledad Renewable Oasis Truck Stop IS/MND Proposal May 7, 2025 required to reduce significant noise impacts. WJV Acoustics’ detailed scope of work is provided in Attachment C.

Task 4 Screencheck Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration EMC Planning Group will revise the administrative draft IS/MND and submit one (1) electronic screencheck version of the IS/MND for review and comment by City staff.

Task 5 Public Review Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration The screencheck IS/MND will be revised and a public review IS/MND will be prepared - one (1) electronic copy will be delivered for distribution by the City.

Task 6 Response to Comments
EMC Planning Group will prepare responses to public comments received on the MND and provide one (1) draft electronic copy of the response to comments for review and comment and one (1) final electronic copy, with comments incorporated. The budget assumes that no more than 10 hours would be required to respond to comments.

Task 7 Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program
EMC Planning Group will prepare a draft MMRP. EMC Planning Group will incorporate City staff comments into a final mitigation monitoring and reporting program.

Task 8 Public Hearing
The EMC Planning Group project manager will virtually attend one public hearing to answer questions on the environmental analysis and documentation.

Assumptions
It is assumed that City staff will:
 Conduct tribal consultation;
 Prepare, distribute, post, and file all applicable noticing;  Print and circulate the public review IS/MND;
 Post the IS/MND with the County Clerk and State Clearinghouse; and  Present the project at public hearing(s).

Any one or more of the noted tasks can be added to this scope of work at the request of the City. 75 Section 3.0 Schedule and Budget 3-1 EMC Planning Group Soledad Renewable Oasis Truck Stop CEQA Services Proposal May 7, 2025

SUBJECT: Soledad Renewable Oasis in Soledad, CA
Proposal to Prepare an Air Quality Analysis
Dear Teri:

Thank you for inviting Illingworth & Rodkin, Inc. (I&R) to submit this proposal to conduct an air quality and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions analysis for a development proposed in Soledad, California. We understand that the project proposes redeveloping an approximate 20-acre site with highway and industrial oriented businesses. This would include a truck service center with highway commercial uses and renewable energy generation and storage. The truck service center would dispense gasoline, diesel and renewable fuels. Truck parking would be provided throughout much of the site.

We understand that EMC is anticipating that I&R would provide the technical information to support the air quality analysis that they would prepare. Based on our review of information received and our experience with similar projects in the vicinity, we offer the following scope of work and fee estimate.

Scope of Work – Air Quality
Typically, air districts that have influence over the scope of analyses under CEQA recommend an emissions analysis related to both project construction and operation. The analysis should estimate emissions from operating the fueling islands, idling trucks, and any sources associated with commercial and energy generation. Note that the project, considered a gasoline dispensing facility (GDF), would be required to obtain a permit to construct and operate from the Monterey Bay Air Resources District (MBARD). The following tasks would be conducted to assess the project’s air quality/GHG impacts:

1. Evaluate Construction Activities. Construction air quality impacts resulting from the proposed project would be addressed by predicting construction period emissions (ROG, NOx, and PM). Emissions obtained from the district-approved version of the California Emissions Estimator Model Version (CalEEMod) would be used to develop construction 79 Teri Wissler Adam
March 25, 2025 - Page 2
period emission rates based on project-specific information provided by the applicant. The CalEEMod model also provides GHG emissions.

2. Evaluate Operational Activities. Emissions of criteria pollutant (ROG, NOx, and PM) emissions would be computed for the proposed project using the CalEEMod model recommended by MBARD. Default inputs for the District would be used unless projectspecific data are available. Project daily trip generation rates that include breakdown by vehicle types and project travel distances would be needed from the project traffic consultant. Methods recommended by MBARD or other districts to compute emissions from gasoline dispensing facilities would be applied to this project. In addition, the contribution of project traffic and delivery truck traffic would be included in this analysis.

This would involve emissions calculations using CARB/MBARD guidance. The CalEEMod model also provides GHG emissions. The offset of GHG emissions from solar power generation/hydrogen production would also be calculated based on the statewide emission rates for electricity production and diesel usage (compared to equivalent hydrogen usage).

3. Health Risk Assessment. The project would include sources of toxic air contaminants (TACs), some of which are regulated by MBARD. Primary emissions are diesel particulate matter from construction equipment and truck traffic and benzene from gasoline dispensing facilities. While most TAC sources associated with the project would be several hundred feet or further from sensitive receptors, there is a truck parking area and maintenance facility planned in close proximity to sensitive receptors that warrants preparing a health risk assessment. This assessment would evaluate TAC emissions from both construction and operations to predict the increase in lifetime cancer risk and both acute and chronic risks from hazardous air pollutant exposure.
o Construction Health Risk Impacts. The proposed project would be constructed near existing receptors (i.e., employees working and residences living nearby).

Therefore, a construction health risk assessment is proposed. This would involve dispersion modeling. Emissions obtained from CalEEMod (Task 1 above) would be used to develop construction period emission rates based on project-specific information. Dispersion modeling would be conducted using EPA’s AERMOD model and hourly meteorological data from the most representative meteorological station, where data is provided. The construction dispersion modeling would assume all of the construction happens at the same time. Cancer risks will be calculated using the modeled construction-period diesel particulate matter concentrations following the MBARD risk management policy guidance. The risks would then be compared against MBARD’s CEQA thresholds (i.e., cancer risk and non-cancer hazards). Measures that may be necessary to reduce construction exhaust emissions or cancer risks would be identified.
o Operational Health Risk Impacts. The health risk assessment for project operations would address those emissions from diesel trucks, gasoline vehicles, delivery trucks, and fuel pumps/tanks. The health risk assessment would be performed that includes both emissions and dispersion modeling using the EMFAC2021 emission 80 Teri Wissler Adam
March 25, 2025 - Page 3
factor model and the AERMOD dispersion model. TAC emissions would be estimated based on project-specific information provided by the project applicant and the project’s traffic study. Dispersion modeling would then be conducted using EPA’s AERMOD model and hourly meteorological data available from the most representative meteorological station. Cancer risks and non-cancer risks will be calculated using modeled pollutant concentrations following the MBARD risk management policy guidance and then compared against MBARD’s CEQA thresholds (i.e., cancer risk and non-cancer hazards). Health risks from the gasoline dispensing facility would be based on screening modeling using the California Air Resources Board GDF Screening tool along with projected gasoline throughput for the project. The production of hydrogen using electricity is not anticipated to generate any TAC emissions. Measures that may be necessary to reduce emissions or cancer risks would be identified.

Deliverables and Schedule
The results of the analyses will be submitted in an I&R technical memo. The memo would include appropriate tables, graphics, results, and information regarding any proposed mitigation measures.

We estimate that we can complete this analysis within five weeks of receiving all necessary data needed to complete the analyses (plans, traffic data, gasoline throughput, etc..).

Budget Estimate
I&R’s fee to prepare this work is outlined in the table below. Work not included in this cost estimate, such as our attendance at meetings or hearings or responses to public comments would be billed in addition at our standard rates plus travel expenses.

Subject: Proposal to Prepare a VMT Evaluation and Traffic Operations Analysis for the Proposed Soledad Renewable Oasis Development
Mr. Sissem:

Hexagon Transportation Consultants, Inc. is pleased to submit this proposal to prepare a Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) evaluation and traffic operations analysis for the proposed Renewable Oasis (Truck Stop) development project located at 701 Nestles Road in Soledad, California (APN 022-224-005). The project as proposed would include gasoline, diesel, and hydrogen fueling pumps for both passenger vehicles and trucks, a convenience store, quick -serve restaurant, truck maintenance and wash facility, rest area and truck parking areas. Access to the project site is proposed via four driveways along Nestles Road.

The following scope of services was developed by Hexagon staff based on our understanding of the project and requirements of the City of Soledad. The scope must be reviewed and approved by City staff prior to our commencement of the study. The Scope of Services provided below is therefore subject to change. Should the City require any material changes in the scope, Hexagon will notify you.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
Historically, traffic impact analysis has focused on the identification of traffic impacts and potential roadway improvements based on delay to relieve traffic congestion that may result due to proposed/planned growth.

However, with the adoption of Senate Bill (SB) 743 legislation, public agencies are required (effective July 2020) to base transportation impacts on VMT rather than level of service that typically uses delay as its metric. The change in measurement is intended to better evaluate the effects on the state’s goals for climate change and multi-modal transportation.

Therefore, an evaluation of the project’s effect on VMT must be completed along with a supplemental traffic operations analysis. Peak hour intersection level of service analysis will be completed at a limited number of intersections as part of the traffic operations analysis. However, the determination of project impacts per CEQA requirements will be based solely on VMT metrics.

VMT Evaluation
CEQA guidelines require an evaluation of potential impacts related to adopted VMT methodologies and impact criteria. Since the City of Soledad has yet to adopt VMT impact criteria or thresholds, the VMT evaluation will consider the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) guidelines and recommendations for the evaluation of VMT for CEQA.

Per OPR’s recommendations, retail uses of less than 50,000 s.f., can be considered local serving and be considered to have a less than significant impact on VMT. However, given that the project site will be located adjacent to a regional highway facility and will cater to regional travelers it may not be considered “localserving.” Rather, it would be expected that the majority of trips generated by the proposed site uses would primarily consist of vehicles already traveling along the adjacent US 101 highway. This will be qualitatively discussed in the report.

Traffic Operations Analysis
The purpose of the traffic operations analysis is to evaluate the effects of the site development on key intersections in the vicinity of the project area. Preliminarily, we have identified the need to study up to three intersections as part of the study. The final list of study intersections will be identified in consultation with City staff. The study will include an evaluation of intersection levels of service analysis and signal and stop sign warrant checks at the identified study intersections. Each of the identified study intersections will be evaluated for project impacts during the AM and PM peak commute hours. Our scope and budget includes the evaluation of one development scenario. Conducting analysis for and evaluating alternative project descriptions or phases will require additional time and budget.

Study Scenarios
The proposed study scenarios are summarized below.
 Existing Conditions: Existing traffic volumes on the existing roadway network.  Existing Plus Project Conditions: Existing traffic volumes + proposed project trips on the existing roadway network.
 Background Conditions: Existing traffic volumes + trips from approved development projects.  Background Plus Project Conditions: Existing traffic volumes + trips from approved development projects + proposed project trips.
 Cumulative Conditions: Future traffic projections with and without proposed project trips on the planned roadway network.

Study Intersections
Traffic conditions at the following intersections will be evaluated:

1. 4th Street and Nestles Road

2. 4th Street and US 101 Northbound Ramps

3. Front Street and Nestles Road
Additional locations will require authorization and additional budget.

Study Tasks
The tasks to be included for the traffic operations analysis are as follows:

1. Site Reconnaissance. The physical characteristics of the site and the surrounding roadway network will be reviewed to identify existing roadway cross-sections, intersection lane configurations, traffic control devices, intersection traffic signal cycle lengths, and surrounding land uses.

2. Observation of Existing Conditions. Existing traffic conditions will be observed in the field during the peak hours in order to identify any operational deficiencies and to confirm the accuracy of calculated levels of service.

3. Data Collection. New manual peak-hour turning movement counts will be conducted at each of the study intersections. The fee estimate includes costs for conducting new peak-period intersection turning movement counts at each of the three study intersections. AM and PM peak-hour pedestrian volumes also will be collected at the intersections. Additional counts will require authorization and additional budget. 85 Mr. Ron Sissem
April 15, 2025

Page 3 of 6 ends

4. Evaluation of Existing Conditions. The existing traffic conditions at the study intersections will be evaluated with SYNCHRO software using the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 7th Edition level of service methodology and current peak-hour volumes. Unsignalized intersections also will be analyzed using peak hour traffic signal warrants.

5. Site Traffic Projections. Based on the proposed development size and land use, site-generated traffic will be estimated using the appropriate vehicular trip generation rates published in the latest edition of ITE’s Trip Generation. The directional distribution of site-generated traffic will be developed based on existing traffic patterns in the area, the available roadway network, and the locations of complementary land uses. The site-generated traffic will be added to the roadway network based on this trip distribution pattern. The preliminary trip generation estimates, trip distribution pattern, and trip assignment will be submitted to the City for review and approval prior to inclusion in the traffic study.

6. Evaluation of Existing Plus Project Conditions. Project-generated traffic will be added to existing traffic volumes to yield existing plus project traffic volumes. Intersection level of service calculations will be conducted using SYNCHRO to estimate the operating levels of service at the study intersections during the AM and PM peak hours under existing plus project conditions.

7. Evaluation of Background Conditions. Lists of approved development projects (including size, use, and location) will be obtained from the City of Soledad and Monterey County. Hexagon will develop trip generation estimates and trip distribution patterns for approved projects in the vicinity of the study area.

The approved trips will be added to the existing peak-hour volumes to obtain traffic volumes for background conditions. Roadway improvements associated with approved developments will be assumed as directed by the City. Intersection levels of service under background conditions will be evaluated using SYNCHRO.

8. Evaluation of Background Plus Project Conditions. Project trips will be added to background traffic volumes to yield traffic volumes under background plus project conditions. Intersection levels of service under background plus project conditions will be evaluated using SYNCHRO. Background plus project conditions will be compared to background conditions for the purpose of identifying potential project impacts.

9. Evaluation of Cumulative Conditions. Lists of pending developments will be obtained from City of Soledad and Monterey County. Hexagon will develop trip generation estimates and trip distribution patterns for the pending projects in the vicinity of the study area. Trips from the pending developments will be added to the background peak-hour volumes to estimate traffic volumes for cumulative no-project conditions. Roadway improvements associated with cumulative developments will be assumed as directed by the City. Site-generated traffic estimated in Task 5 will be added to cumulative no-project traffic volumes to yield traffic conditions under cumulative plus project conditions. Intersection level of service calculations will be conducted to estimate the operating levels during the AM and PM peak hours under cumulative no-project and cumulative with project conditions. Cumulative project impacts will be evaluated relative to cumulative no-project conditions. Intersection levels of service under cumulative conditions will be evaluated using SYNCHRO.

10. Signal and Stop Sign Warrant Analysis. The need for signalization or implementation of roundabouts or stop signs at the unsignalized study intersections will be evaluated on the basis of the Peak-Hour Warrant (Warrant 3 – Part B) and guidance for the implementation of stop signs in the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. The warrants will be evaluated using peak-hour volumes for all study scenarios.

11. Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Transit Facilities. A qualitative analysis of the project’s effect on transit service in the area and on bicycle and pedestrian circulation in the study area will be included in the traffic report. 86 Mr. Ron Sissem
April 15, 2025

Page 4 of 6 ends

12. Site Access, On-Site Circulation, and Parking Analysis. Site access will be evaluated based on locations of the proposed project site entrances. This will include a qualitative analysis of the access to the project parcel, evaluation of the number and location of the access points and required control devices at the access points. Vehicle queuing and vehicle storage capacity at proposed entrances to the project site also will be evaluated. A review of the project site circulation concept will be performed to determine if adequate on-site circulation is provided and to identify any access or circulation issues that should be resolved. Necessary improvements will be identified. Additionally, the proposed parking supply on the site will be compared to City parking requirements and documented in the traffic report.

13. Description of Impacts and Recommendations. Based on the results of the level of service calculations and signal warrant analyses, impacts of the site-generated traffic will be identified and described.

Recommendations will be formulated that identify the locations and types of improvements or modifications necessary to mitigate significant project impacts. Improvements could include street widenings, lane additions, changes in lane usage, addition of traffic signals, or modifying existing traffic signals. Additionally, mitigation and/or traffic impact fees associated with any individual and/or cumulative project impacts will be described.

Reports
Hexagon’s findings and recommendations will be summarized in an administrative draft report. Following review and comment (on the administrative draft) by project staff, a draft report will be submitted for review by City staff. Hexagon will prepare a final report that addresses all of the comments received from City staff. This final report will be included in the environmental document. Following public review and comment, Hexagon will assist with responding to public comments, with a maximum of four hours of staff time allocated to respond to public comments.

Meetings
Our cost estimate includes Hexagon staff attendance at up to one meeting with City staff and/or or the project team in connection with the project. Attendance at additional meetings, public hearings, and neighborhood or community meetings would require authorization and additional budget and would be billed as Additional Services.

ADDITIONAL SERVICES
Any work not specifically referenced in the above Scope of Services—for example analyzing a different project description, conducting intersection counts, analyzing additional scenarios, conducting other technical analyses not described above, attending public hearings, and providing feasibility drawings or cost estimates for mitigation measures—shall be considered additional services. Additional services will require additional budget and time.

TIME OF PERFORMANCE
Barring any unforeseen delays, an administrative draft report will be submitted eight weeks after: (1) authorization to proceed and (2) Hexagon’s work scope is approved by the City. The draft and final reports will be delivered one week after receipt of all respective review comments. We are ready to start work on this project immediately upon authorization.

RE: ENVIRONMENTAL NOISE ASSESSMENT, SOLEDAD RENEWABLE OASIS,

SOLEDAD, CALIFORNIA
Dear Mr. Sissem:

Based upon the information you have provided, WJV Acoustics, Inc. (WJVA) is pleased to submit this proposal to prepare an environmental noise assessment for the above‐referenced project.

Following is a description of our proposed scope of services, fee, and schedule for completion.

Scope of Services:

1. Conduct a project site inspection to evaluate the acoustical characteristics of the project site and surrounding area, note the locations of nearby noise‐sensitive receptors and identify existing noise sources in the project area. Conduct ambient noise monitoring at representative locations throughout the project vicinity that could have potential noise‐related conflicts as a result of the proposed project. It is anticipated that continuous 24‐hour ambient noise measurements will be conducted at up to two (2) locations using automated noise monitors and that short‐term sampling of ambient noise levels will be conducted at up to four (4) additional sites.

2. Analyze potential project‐related changes in roadway traffic noise exposure along roadways near or adjacent to the project site. Calculations will be performed using the FHWA Highway Traffic Noise Prediction Model and traffic data to be obtained from the project traffic engineer or other sources as may be appropriate. Compare project‐related changes in traffic noise exposure to applicable City of Soledad noise level standards and other thresholds of significance.

3. Evaluate potential noise impacts from the project as they may affect existing noise‐ sensitive uses in the project area. Anticipated sources of operational noise to be analyzed include (but are not limited to) on‐site truck and vehicle movements, convenience store operations, truck repair operations, and quick service (drive‐thru) restaurant operations.

4. Quantify noise and vibration levels that would likely occur during construction of the project as they could affect nearby existing or planned noise‐sensitive receptors. Identify nearby existing or planned noise‐sensitive receptors that could be subjected to noise or vibration levels in excess of applicable noise standards or CEQA thresholds as a result of the project construction.

5. Prepare recommendations for noise mitigation as may be required to reduce significant noise impacts to less‐than‐significant. Significance will be based on City of Soledad noise standards and the CEQA Guidelines criteria. Identify any significant project‐related noise impacts that cannot be reasonably mitigated.

6. Prepare a written technical report summarizing the methods, findings, and recommendations of the study. The report and associated exhibits will be formatted to facilitate incorporation into the CEQA documents being prepared for the project.

Fee:

WJVA proposes to provide the services described above for a total fee of $5,850, including expenses. Attendance of meetings or hearings, if required, would be subject to additional charges based upon the enclosed Fee Schedule plus expenses. Full payment for services rendered will be due upon submittal of the completed report.

Schedule For Completion:

Work will be scheduled for completion in compliance with the overall project schedule. It is anticipated that the noise study will be completed within 30 days after receipt of all necessary maps, traffic data, project information and the notice‐to‐proceed. 91 Ron Sissem

TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Beatriz Trujillo, Community and Economic Development Director, Ariana Mora, Senior Planner
MEETING DATE: May 21, 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.6229, “Approving City Event and Street Closure of Front Street Between Main Street and Soledad Street for the 2025 Music in the Park Concert Series".

Executive Summary
The Soledad Parks and Recreation Department, in collaboration with the Community Engagement Department, is launching the City’s first Music in the Park series, an initiative designed to enhance community engagement and activate Downtown Soledad through free, family-friendly programming.

Staff recommends that the City Council approve in-kind services and a temporary street closure to support the 2025 series, which will be held at Cesar Chavez Park (502 Front Street) on three Fridays:

June 13, July 11, and August 8, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Each event will feature live music, food vendors, and children’s activities, offering a safe and vibrant event for residents of all ages. As a Citysponsored event, Music in the Park aligns with Soledad’s mission to promote inclusive, family-oriented events and strengthen connections among community members. Approval of the requested support will allow the City to provide a high-quality public experience that enhances the cultural vitality of Downtown Soledad.

Background
The Soledad Parks and Recreation Department (SPR), in partnership with the Community Engagement Department (Community Engagement), is launching the first Music in the Park series to bring the community together through live music and food vendors. Held at Cesar Chavez Park in the heart of Downtown Soledad, the event will offer a fun, welcoming space for families while supporting local businesses and energizing the downtown area.
97 Review & Analysis
Soledad residents have shown strong support for community events in Downtown Soledad. Building on this momentum, the Soledad Parks and Recreation (SPR) Department, in partnership with the Community Engagement Department, is introducing the Music in the Park series to provide a safe, family-friendly space featuring live music and food vendors.

The series will take place at Cesar Chavez Park on June 13, July 11, and August 8, 2025. Event hours will be from 3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., which includes setup and cleanup time. Each event will showcase different musical acts organized by SPR, along with a variety of food vendors. To support the event, staff is requesting approval for the temporary closure of Front Street between Main Street and Soledad Street to accommodate food vendors and ensure safe pedestrian access. In addition to the street closure, Staff is requesting in-kind City services essential to the success of this City-sponsored event. This includes:

Use of the Gateway Center as the event headquarters and its backyard patio as the main stage.

Police Department support for patrol and traffic control.

Public Works assistance with event equipment, including lighting, traffic signage, garbage cans, a generator, and restroom access at Cesar Chavez Park.

These coordinated efforts will help ensure a vibrant and successful community event that enhances the Downtown experience for Soledad families. Furthermore, approval of the street closure and City services will also strengthen the City's commitment to supporting programs that benefit the community, ensuring that families have access to enriching and engaging activities at no cost.

Financial Considerations
The estimated cost of the Music in the Park Concert Series is $7,500 ($2,500 per event). However, these costs are anticipated to be recouped through vendor permits and sponsorships. Staffing costs are already included in the department budgets. Thus, it is unlikely that the concert series will impact the General Fund.

Alternatives
Approve the City event and Street closure as recommended.

Do not approve the City event and provide other directions to the Staff Planning/CEQA
The City of Soledad has determined that the proposed action of approving the city event at Cesar Chavez Park and closing the street is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Guidelines Section 15378. This is 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.

CITY OF SOLEDAD

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 approve Resolution No. 6230, “Approving In-Kind City Services, Waiving Park Fee and Approving the Street Closure of Front Street Between West Street and East Street for the 4th Annual Soledad Hot Summer Days Event”.

Executive Summary
Over the past three years, the Soledad Police Department, in collaboration with various city departments, has worked with the Salinas Crusaders Car Club, a local community group, to organize an annual car show and street festival called Soledad Hot Summer Days. This year, the City of Soledad will take the lead in organizing the event, with support from multiple city departments and the Salinas Crusaders Car Club. Now in its fourth year, the event is scheduled for July 26th from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM and will be held in Downtown Soledad along Front Street, between West and East Streets, as well as in Cesar Chavez Park.

The event will feature a wide variety of food vendors, outdoor entertainment, and a car show. City staff are seeking approval for the following:

1. Closure of Front Street between West and East Streets, including one-block sections extending to Monterey Street from Benito Street to East Street, from 6:00 AM to 7:00 PM.

2. A fee waiver for the use of Cesar Chavez Park.

3. In-kind services from multiple departments, particularly the Public Works and Police Departments.

Background
In 2022, the Soledad Merchants Association, in partnership with the Salinas Crusaders “Crusaders” Car Club and the Soledad Police Department, hosted the first Hot Summer Days car show and street 103
festival. In 2023, the City assumed a more prominent role in organizing the event and is currently the leading coordinator. On May 14, 2025, the City of Soledad submitted a Temporary Land Use Permit (TUP) application and request for sponsorship. This event is subject to the TUP process due to street closures. The event also requires a noise permit, special event permit, and park reservation permit. In addition to the TUP and associated permits, staff is also requesting a waiver of park fees for Cesar Chavez Park and in-kind services.

Under Soledad Municipal Code 17.42.015, a temporary use permit is required when:

C. 2. Commercial carnivals, circuses, musical concerts and similar events and congregations of people when conducted on private property and when involving more than one hundred people.

C. 5. Street closures, farmers markets, or craft shows of not more than 4 days per month, taking place on public property or private properties, in appropriately zoned commercial areas and when having obtained any other necessary approvals …”
And where:

D. (4). a. All fee waiver requests shall be reviewed and determined by the city council D. (4).b. Events requesting the use of city staff or equipment for “in-kind” services shall be reviewed and determined by the city council.

It is proposed that the City partner with the Crusaders to undertake this event. The Crusaders will be responsible for hosting the car show, while the City will oversee other activities on a public street where more than 1000 people are expected to attend. Therefore, the temporary use permit can be issued administratively. However, the applicant must receive permission from the Council to host events on public property. Consistent with the prior three years, the applicant is requesting to close Front Street between West and East Streets and use Cesar Chavez Park for the event, as shown in Attachment A.

Review & Analysis
This year, the City of Soledad, in collaboration with the Salinas Crusaders “Crusaders” Car Club, plans to host the 4th Annual Soledad Hot Summer Days event, which has become a tradition in the city. The event will feature outdoor activities, informational booths, food vendors, entertainment, and a car show in downtown Soledad. The main goal of this event is to engage with the community, promote downtown businesses, and raise funds for the Soledad Community Center Capital Campaign. The event is scheduled for July 26, 2025, from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm, but the street closure will extend from 6:00 am to 7:00 pm for set-up and clean-up time. This year, the event will conclude at 4:00 pm instead of 6:00 pm, as in prior years, to reduce costs.

As outlined above, Hot Summer Days involves the closure of Front Street in downtown Soledad to display cars and provide a space for various activities and entertainment. In addition, the applicants are requesting street closures for each intersection block from Benito Street to East Street between Front and Monterey Streets. A map has been provided to clearly identify the streets that will be closed (See Map Exhibit “A”). Public Works will coordinate with the Soledad Police Department to place barricades, traffic signage, and other equipment as needed. The Soledad Police Department will be present to coordinate traffic control and safety throughout the event.

The Soledad Recreation Department will host games and activities at Cesar Chavez Park for families and children. This annual event will feature local vendor booths and food trucks and will prioritize local Front Street businesses for booth opportunities. Although the City would not typically charge itself for the $150 park fee, since this event is co-sponsored by the Crusaders, staff decided it is best to formally request that the City Council waive the park fee.
104
Resolution No. 6230
Attachment A
Financial Report - 2024 Hot Summer Days
The City of Soledad is leading the partnership with the Crusaders and will be responsible for business outreach, ensuring that businesses along Front Street are minimally impacted. Additionally, the City of Soledad will ensure that all vendors participating in the event obtain necessary permits, including temporary use, special events, business licenses, and health permits, to comply with state and local health and safety regulations.

Financial Considerations
Residents of Soledad have expressed a desire for more city-sponsored events through last year's budget survey. "Hot Summer Days" is one of the most attended events each year, with proceeds donated to the Soledad Community Center Capital Campaign. Last year, this event raised $7,315 for the Community Center.

It is estimated that the in-kind cost for staffing this event will be approximately $6,000. Staff support for community events like "Hot Summer Days" is considered during the development of the annual operating budget and has been included in the Fiscal Year 24/25 budget. It is recommended that the City continue to account for these costs in the upcoming FY 25/26 budget and include a $5,000 line item for professional services and supplies, such as porta-potty rentals. However, staff is confident we can defray these costs as has happened in previous years through sponsorships.

It is important to note that many city staff members who support this event volunteer their time, which helps to reduce the overall in-kind service costs.

Alternatives
Approve the Resolution as presented; or
Deny the Resolution of in-kind city services, waiving of park fee, and the street closure of Front Street between West Street and East Street for the 3rd Annual Soledad Hot Summer Days event.

Planning/CEQA
The annual Soledad Hot Summer Days and the associated requests for street closure, waiver of park fees, 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, is exempt.

SUBJECT: Receive Soledad Police Department AB 481 Annual Report and Provide Direction
TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Mike Rodriquez, City Attorney
MEETING DATE: May 21, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

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

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council receive the Soledad Police Department’s AB 481 Annual Report and provide Staff with direction on publicizing the report and bringing the same back for Council and public comment and consideration.

Executive Summary
Per Assembly Bill 481, as codified in Government Code Section 7070, et seq., in 2022 the City Council was compelled to adopt an ordinance approving policies applicable to the Police Department’s use of military equipment. After adoption of said ordinance, the City’s Police Department is required to provide the Council with an Annual Report concerning the previous year’s use of military equipment and make the report available for Council and public comment. The Report is then used by the Council as part of its annual review and renewal of the City’s Military Equipment Use Policy Ordinance, which will be scheduled for July 16, 2025.

Background
Effective January 1, 2022, Assembly Bill 481 (codified in Government Code Section 7070, et seq.) requires legislative bodies to adopt ordinances approving military equipment use policies before law enforcement agencies can continue to engage in specified activities related to the use of what the state legislature has defined as “military equipment” in Government Code Section 7070. Ordinance No. 743 “Approving Soledad Police Department Policy Manual Policy 706-Military Equipment” was approved by the City Council on June 15, 2022.
110
Review & Analysis
Government Code Section 7071(e)(1) states that a governing body shall review any ordinance it has adopted pursuant to this section approving the funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment at least annually and, subject to paragraph (e)(2), vote on whether to renew the ordinance at a regular meeting. Said review is scheduled for the City Council meeting of July 16, 2025.

Government Code Section 7072 also provides that any law enforcement agency that receives approval for a military use policy pursuant to Section 7071 shall submit to the governing body an annual military equipment report for each type of military equipment approved. The Annual Report is meant to provide yearly information about each type of military equipment that was approved by Council. The report contains a summary of how the equipment is used (if at all), any complaints or concerns received about the equipment, and any associated costs related to the equipment’s use. The law enforcement agency shall also make each annual military equipment report required by this section publicly available on its website.

After submitting an annual military equipment report to its governing body, and making said report and related documents available to the public for review for a minimum of 30 days, the law enforcement agency is required to hold at least one well-publicized meeting at which the general public may discuss and ask questions regarding the report and the law enforcement agency’s funding, acquisition or use of military equipment. The City plans to hold such a meeting as a part of its regular City Council meeting on July 16, 2025.

The City’s Police Department has now prepared its 2024-2025 AB 481 Annual Report, a copy of which is attached hereto as Attachment 1. No action needs to be taken this evening other than to accept the report, direct that it be posted on the Police Department and City’s websites, and direct that the “meeting” to allow public questions and input on the Report be appropriately publicized before the July 16 meeting. The Council is also free to ask any questions regarding the Annual Report.

Financial Considerations
There are no financial impacts associated with the submission of the Police Department’s AB 481 Annual Report.

Alternatives
Accept the AB 481 Annual Report and provide direction to Staff concerning publicizing the report for public review and comment.

Do not accept the Report and provide alternative direction to Staff. This is not recommended as the acceptance of the Report is a prerequisite to subsequent action that must be taken by the City concerning the City’s Military Equipment Ordinance.

Planning/CEQA
Submission of the Police Department’s AB 481 Annual Report is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). Said action is not a “project” within the meaning of Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines since there is no potential for the action to result in direct or indirect physical change to the environment.

SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 772, An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Soledad Amending Section 3.24.080 Bidding Procedures for Public Works Construction Projects of Chapter 3.24- Purchase System of the Soledad Municipal Code
TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Mike Rodriquez, City Attorney
MEETING DATE: May 21, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 2.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council consider, waive reading and introduce by title only an ordinance of the City Council “Amending Section 3.24.080-Bidding Procedures for Public Works Construction Projects of Chapter 3.24-Purchase System of the Soledad Municipal Code”.

Executive Summary
On September 2, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 5635 adopting the public works contract bidding procedures established by the Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act (“UPCCAA”). Thereafter, on October 7, 2020, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 735 whereby, pursuant to the provisions of the UPCCAA, the City codified uniform public construction cost accounting procedures allowing the City to dispense with the normal statutory process used for bidding and awarding public works projects and replacing the same with a process that established requirements for public works contracts in three categories- no bid contracts for projects under $60,000, informal contracts for projects between $60,000 and $200,000, and formal contract bidding procedures for projects exceeding $200,000. Pursuant to AB 2192, which became effective in January of 2025, provisions of the UPCCAA were amended to slightly broaden the definition of a “public project” and to increase the monetary thresholds applied to the three categories of public works contracts referenced above. Staff is recommending that the Council consider waive reading and introduce Ordinance No. 772, which will amend Section 3.24.080 of the Soledad Municipal Code to reflect these changes.

Background
California law requires general law cities such as Soledad to advertise public works projects for competitive bidding if an involved project is anticipated to cost more than $5,000. An alternative contracting process for public works has been established in the California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act (“UPCCAA”), as set forth in California Public Contract Code, 115
Sections 22000 through 22050. The intent of the UPCCAA is to promote uniformity of cost accounting standards and allow greater flexibility for public agencies in the public contract bidding process.

The UPCCAA allows local agencies that elect to follow the cost accounting procedures in the “Cost Accounting Policies and Procedures Manual” to use alternative bidding procedures when they hire contractors to perform public works projects. Contracts are broken into three categories: no-bid contracts, informal contracts, and formal bidding contracts, each with its own monetary threshold and set of procedures as set by statute and manual provisions.

On September 2, 2020, the Council adopted Resolution No. 5635, adopting and agreeing to have the City be subject to the alternative bidding and contracting procedures of the UPCCAA. Thereafter, in October of 2020, the Council adopted Ordinance No. 735 “Amending Chapter 3.24-Purchase System of the Soledad Municipal Code by the Addition of New Section 3.24.080 Bidding Procedures for Public Works Construction Projects.” At the time Ordinance No. 735 was adopted, the monetary thresholds established for the three categories of contractual bidding, no bid, informal, and formal, were $60,000, $200,000, and any amount over $200,000, respectively.

Review & Analysis
Pursuant to AB 2192, the public works contract bidding thresholds established for use under the UPCCAA have been increased.

The new bidding thresholds are as follows:

No Bid- Public Projects costing $75,000 or less can be performed pursuant to force account, negotiated contract or purchase order of $75,000 or less.

Informal Bidding- Public Projects costing $220,000 or less can be let to contract by informal procedures (solicitation of proposals).

Formal Bidding- Public Projects costing more than $220,000 are to be let to contract by formal noticed bidding procedures.

AB 2192 also includes language making an addition to the definition of “public projects” covered by the UPCCAA by adding “installation” work performed at publicly owned, leased or operated facilities.

This change will be useful when adding or replacing large pieces of attached equipment, like HVAC systems, at such facilities.

Staff has prepared an ordinance amending Section 3.24.080 of Chapter 3.24 Purchase System of the Soledad Municipal Code to include the UPCCAA changes referenced above. Staff believes that use of the UPCCAA process has proven to save time, money and effort in the City’s ongoing public works projects. The new monetary thresholds will also be helpful given recent and anticipated increased costs of construction materials. As such, Staff is recommending that Ordinance No. 772, be adopted.

The Council should remember that utilizing the UPCCAA process will continue to award all informal and formal public works contracts to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The City would also still be required to meet statutory requirements in its public works contracts for performance bonds, payment of prevailing wages, certificates of insurance, and funding mandates.

The Council should decide whether it wishes to waive a first reading, introduce and read Ordinance No. 116
Ordinance No. 772
772, by title only. If introduced, Staff will bring the ordinance back for consideration of adoption at a subsequent noticed public hearing.

Financial Considerations
Adoption of the proposed Municipal Code amendments set forth in Ordinance No. 772, will have no adverse financial impact on the City. Increased monetary thresholds for contract procurement procedures that do not require or only require informal bidding will continue to reduce staff time and other costs associated with the bidding process, such as the preparation and publication of bid notices.

Alternatives
Introduce Ordinance No. 772, to amend existing procedures for bidding and awarding public works contracts in accordance with the Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act.

Do not Introduce Ordinance No. 772,. This is not recommended as failure to adopt the proposed amendments will not allow the City to take full advantage of increased monetary thresholds for public contracts set forth in the Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act.

Planning/CEQA
The adoption of this ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act, based on 14 California Code of Regulations Section 15061(b)(3), where, as is the case here, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. Additionally, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3), the proposed activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378.

Public Notice Requirements
None required for the introduction of an ordinance. If introduced, Staff will notice a public hearing in accordance with legal requirements for a subsequent meeting.

SUBJECT: In-Lieu Housing Plan for a Portion of the Affordable Units in the Miravale Parcel E – Santa Clara Subdivision
TO: Honorable Mayor Anna Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Beatriz Trujillo, Community and Economic Development Director MEETING DATE: May 21, 2025

CITY OF SOLEDAD

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

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad review the in-lieu plan outlined in this staff report and provide direction to staff on whether to proceed with preparing the necessary amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement, along with any other documents required to implement the proposed modification.

Executive Summary
The Miravale Parcel E project, approved in 2019 as a Planned Unit Development, was originally conditioned to provide 52 affordable housing units, including 24 moderate-income ownership units and 28 low- and very low-income rental units. In 2023, the City Council approved a First Amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement allowing the rental component to be transferred to Eden Housing, which secured a Density Bonus to increase the affordable rental units from 28 to 39, plus one manager’s unit, all with 55-year affordability terms.

Despite this progress, the developer, HMBY, LP, has encountered difficulties securing a homebuilder for the 24 required moderate-income ownership units. In response, the developer is proposing an in-lieu plan that would reduce the moderate-income requirement from 24 to 1 unit (with a 45-year term), and instead provide:
15,950 square feet development land dedicated to the City, and $300,000 in in-lieu fees to support future affordable housing development.

This proposal is allowed under the Soledad Municipal Code and has received support from the City’s Affordable Housing Ad-Hoc Subcommittee. Staff recommends that the City Council review and consider the in-lieu plan, which gives the City greater control over a developable parcel and the opportunity to apply a Density Bonus to potentially produce more than 12 affordable units, exceeding the original requirement. The proposal does not impact the City’s General Fund, and the in-lieu fees will be deposited into the City’s Affordable Housing Fund to support future projects. 123
Background
As outlined in Soledad Municipal Code Section 17.38.230, Planned Unit Developments (PUDs) are intended to promote efficient land use by encouraging high-quality site planning and offering flexibility from standard development regulations. The PUD framework allows for creative and integrated design solutions that include superior design features and community amenities.

On March 6, 2019, the City Council approved Planned Unit Development (PUD) 2018-02 and the Vesting Tentative Map for the Miravale Parcel E project through Resolution No. 5482. The approval authorized the development of 132 residential units on an 8.56-acre parcel owned by HMBY, LP. The project included 104 single-family townhomes—comprised of 80 market-rate and 24 moderate-income for-sale units—and 28 rental units designated for low- and very low-income households.

As a condition of approval, the developer entered into an Affordable Housing Agreement with the City of Soledad, committing to provide a total of 52 affordable units: 24 moderate-income ownership units and 28 low- and very low-income rental units. The Agreement required the moderate-income units to be evenly distributed among the market-rate units and the rental units to be proportionally divided between low- and very low-income categories.

On December 13, 2023, the City Council approved the First Amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement, which authorized HMBY, LP to partner with Eden Housing, a non-profit affordable housing developer, for the development of the multi-family rental component. Under this amendment, HMBY, LP agreed to transfer the development-ready rental parcel to Eden Housing to construct affordable rental units.

Eden Housing subsequently requested a Density Bonus to increase the number of affordable rental units from 28 to 40. This increase allowed for the development of 39 deed-restricted low- and very lowincome units, plus one non-deed-restricted manager’s unit. As a result of receiving the Density Bonus, the multi-family component became subject to a 55-year affordability term.

While the partnership with Eden Housing has resulted in a greater number of low- and very lowincome units, HMBY, LP remains responsible for producing the 24 moderate-income ownership units.

The developer has actively pursued a builder to construct these moderate-income single-family homes; however, these units have presented significant challenges during negotiations with potential building partners.

On January 28, 2025, HMBY, LP presented an in-lieu proposal to the City’s Affordable Housing AdHoc Subcommittee. The proposal included a combination of land dedication and payment of in-lieu fees in exchange for reducing the number of required moderate-income units. The Subcommittee supported the concept and directed City staff to work with the developer to finalize the in-lieu plan and return it to the City Council for consideration.

Review & Analysis
Soledad Municipal Code Section 17.38.230 permits developers to request an in-lieu housing plan as an alternative to meeting on-site inclusionary housing requirements. Any such request is subject to City Council consideration and approval. In addition, per Section 17.41.080 of the Municipal Code, any inlieu fees collected must be deposited into the City’s Affordable Housing Fund and used to support future affordable housing development.
124
City staff recommends that the City Council consider the following in-lieu proposal submitted by the developer of the Miravale Parcel E project.

CurrentAgreement:

The Miravale Parcel E project is subject to inclusionary housing requirements established by the City as a condition of project approval. Per the City's Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, 20% of all new housing units must be designated as affordable, with the following income and affordability breakdown:

Income Category Required Units Affordability Period
Moderate 24 0
Low 14 55 years
Very Low 14 55 years
Total 52
Parcel E's current affordable housing obligations are outlined in the Affordable Housing Agreement executed on February 5, 2020, and amended on December 13, 2023. These include:

Tenure: 104 single-family ownership units and 40 multi-family rental units Affordable Housing Units: 24 moderate-income (ownership), 20 low-income (rental), and 19 very low-income (rental)
Affordability Term: 55 years for rental units; no extended term for moderate-income ownership units beyond the initial qualified buyer
Total Units: 132
Proposed In-Lieu Plan (Attachment 1):

Mr. Agha, owner of HMBY, LP, reports that the requirement to construct 24 moderate-income ownership units has created a significant impediment in negotiations with potential homebuilders. The developer's inability to sell this property affects the overall housing production on the site. To address this challenge, Mr. Agha requests City Council's consideration of an in-lieu plan to modify the current requirement.

Under the proposed plan:

The number of required moderate-income units would be reduced from 24 to 1 unit, carrying a 45-year affordability term.

In exchange, the developer would:

Dedicate 15,950 square feet of development-ready land and an access easement (see Attachment 1) on Parcel B, also owned by HMBY, LP, located on Orchard Lane, to the City. Parcel B is currently undergoing the entitlement process and is expected to be entitled in 2025.

Pay $25,000 per affordable unit not built, totaling $300,000 in in-lieu fees.

As a point of reference, the City of Salinas charges an in-lieu fee of $15.15 per square foot for ownership housing. With an average unit size of approximately 1,500 square feet at Parcel E, this results in a comparable fee of about $22,725 per unit. The proposed $25,000 in-lieu fee per unit is closely aligned with this figure and reflects the estimated financial subsidy required to support the development of a moderate-income ownership unit.

The developer requests that the Council consider the additional 11 affordable rental units (39 instead of the originally required 28) as part of the overall affordable housing benefit. 125
Attachment 1 - Parcel E In-Lieu Land Proposal
Attachment 2 - Presentation
The proposed in-lieu scenario is summarized below:

Income Category Required Units Affordability Period
Moderate 1 45 years
Low 20 55 years
Very Low 19 55 years
Total 40
Staf Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council review the proposed in-lieu plan, including the land dedication and in-lieu fee payment, and provide direction on whether to approve the plan as an acceptable alternative to the original moderate-income housing requirement. The proposed dedication of 15,950 square feet of land offers the City a unique opportunity to maintain direct control over a developable parcel. This control enhances the City's ability to strategically plan for future affordable housing production. Moreover, by owning the land, the City could pursue a Density Bonus, which may allow for the development of more than 12 affordable units, thereby exceeding the number of affordable units originally required. If the Council supports the proposed in-lieu plan, staff will collaborate with the City Attorney to prepare and execute the necessary amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement for formal adoption.

Financial Considerations
The proposed amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement will have no direct impact on the City’s General Fund. The $300,000 in-lieu fee to be collected from the developer will be deposited into the City’s Affordable Housing Fund, in accordance with Section 17.41.080 of the Soledad Municipal Code. The Community and Economic Development Department will coordinate with the Legal and Finance Departments to ensure that the funds are properly accounted for and used exclusively for the development or support of affordable housing projects within the City.

Alternatives
Approve the proposed in-lieu plan and direct city staff to prepare a Second Amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement for council consideration at a later meeting.

Modify the proposed in-lieu plan and direct city staff to prepare a Second Amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement for council consideration at a later meeting.

Do not approve the proposed in-lieu plan and provide further direction to city staff.

Reasons to
Consider an
In-Lieu Plan
Developer Constraints:

HMBY, LP has been actively seeking to sell the property, but the requirement to construct 24 moderate-income ownership units has become a significant barrier to finalizing a deal with a reputable homebuilder.

Regional Market Pressure:

As a smaller city, Soledad faces difficulty attracting builders for limited-scale moderate-income projects, especially in contrast to nearby Salinas, which is advancing its Future Growth Area development.

Builder Preference:

Larger jurisdictions like Salinas can offer more lucrative and scalable opportunities, making smaller, standalone projects in Soledad less competitive in the current housing market.

Greater Control Over Affordable Housing Development:

The current Affordable Housing Agreement does not impose long-term deed restrictions on the moderate-income ownership units Land dedication gives the City direct ownership of a developable parcel In-lieu fees to fill financing gaps

Executive Summary
On January 31, 2023, Soledad received an Award Notification from the CA Department of Water Resources in the amount of $16,663,021 for Soledad’s Recycled Water Conveyance Project as part of the Urban Community Drought Relief Grant Program to fund all phases of a distribution system for recycled water to be utilized for irrigation of turf at most parks and schools throughout Soledad. The Project was put out to bid and bids were opened March 27, 2025. Even though the low bid of $13,780,764.80 was less than the engineer’s estimate of $17,764,621 for the Project, it was higher than the grant funding available for construction. Therefore, staff have negotiated a deductive change order in the amount of -$1,504,419.05 with the low-bidder, Specialty Construction, Inc., for a total construction cost of $12,276,345.75. Additionally, because of the complexity, size and duration of the Project, the City sought construction management services via a Request for Qualifications for Construction Management and Inspection Services, and the selection panel was unanimous in selecting and recommending approval of a contract for services with the Wallace Group in the not-to-exceed amount of $1,232,864, 10% of the construction cost. Staff is seeking Council approval of the Specialty Construction, Inc. Contract, the Deductive Change Order, and the Construction Management Agreement with the Wallace Group. The environmental impacts of the Proposed Project have been analyzed pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, with an ultimate determination that upon adoption of appropriate mitigation measures, the Project will not have a significant effect on the environment. An Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Project has been prepared for Council approval.

Background
The City has long strived to complete and utilize a recycled water utility system enterprise as reflected in the series of documents and actions described below.

In December 2005, the City of Soledad City Council adopted the City’s Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP). One of the major components of the UWMP was an emphasis on preserving the groundwater resource of the City. One of the methods to accomplish this was identified as maximization of the use of recycled water.

In May 2006, the City of Soledad City Council accepted the City’s Long-Term Wastewater Management Plan (LTWMP). This plan detailed the wastewater improvements needed to serve the build-out of the 2005 General Plan. The plan included wastewater treatment upgrades that would produce Title 22 quality water that could be utilized as recycled water.

On August 2, 2006, the City of Soledad City Council approved the award of a design and construction engineering contract to Black & Veatch for implementation of the LTWMP first phase. One of the tasks 140
in the contract included the preparation of a new Report of Waste Discharge (permit application) for the project. One of the requisite elements for the permit was the adoption of a Recycled Water Ordinance.

On May 16, 2007, the Council approved Ordinance No. 645, “Adding New Chapter 13.11, ‘Recycled Water Service’to Title 13-Public Services of the Soledad Municipal Code”.

In 2008, Soledad began construction of a Title 22 Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) and completed it in 2010 for a total cost of over $60,000,000. The WRF was designed and constructed to treat to higher water quality standards than the old pond system WWTP in order to qualify for the effluent to be used for landscape irrigation and not degrade the river water quality. The new WRF construction included plans for a pipeline to take RW from the new WRF to the City. While funding was insufficient to complete that pipeline project, a pipeline was constructed all the way across an adjacent farm field from the WRF to the RR tracks.

On September 19, 2011, the Water Resources Board notified the City of a Prop 84 Grant award for the Soledad pipeline project in the amount of $1,155,000. Soledad’s project included the design and construction of the remaining sections of RW mains needed to connect the WRF to Veteran’s Park. The pipeline project was completed in 2017; however, there were several components that needed to be completed prior to the actual use of recycled water in a City park:

Permitting for the use of recycled water in public parks Conversion of the irrigation system at Veteran’s Park to recycled water to include:

Separation of the existing Veteran’s Park water system so that the restroom facility would stay on potable water and the landscape irrigation separated to use recycled water Conversion to purple valves, boxes, sprinkler heads, and warning signs installed indicating recycled water use
The above tasks, except for permitting, were completed in the summer of 2024, and permitting is in the final stages and will be complete prior to startup of this project.

In April 2015, the City completed a Recycled Water Master Plan that identified the infrastructure needed to distribute recycled water to all City Parks and School Ballfields (see attachment).

On Nov 16, 2022, the Council authorized staff to submit an application for an Urban Community Drought Relief (UCDR) Grant from the CA Department of Water Resources for Soledad’s Recycled Water Conveyance Project (the “RW Project”) to fund all phases of a distribution system for RW to be utilized for irrigation of turf at most parks and schools throughout Soledad. Soledad Unified School District (SUSD) provided a letter of support for the grant demonstrating collaboration with the City for the project which would benefit SUSD as well as the City. Collaboration with another agency helped the City’s UCDR score points toward award of the UCDR.

Subsequently, on January 31, 2023, Soledad received an Award Notification from the CA Department of Water Resources in the amount of $16,663,021 for RW Project as part of the Urban Community Drought Relief Grant Program. On April 26, 2023, the City of Soledad entered into Grant Agreement #4600015016 with the State of CA for a UCDR Grant, with a project completion date of December 4, 2025.

On October 23, 2024, Soledad City Council adopted Resolution 6167 approving a “Memorandum of Understanding” between the City and SUSD for the sale, purchase and delivery of recycled water, and on December 16, 2024, the SUSD Board of Trustees also approved the recycled water agreement.

On March 7, 2025, the State of California, Department of Water Resources, issued Amendment 1 to Grant Agreement #4600015016 extending the project construction completion date to December 31, 141
2026, and no funds can be requested after March 31, 2027.

Review & Analysis

1. Recycled Water Conveyance Project Construction.

Turf irrigation is typically one of the highest uses of water that a city experiences and is therefore a great candidate for conversion from potable to recycled water as the irrigation source. Soledad parks and schools use up to 231 acre feet per year (75 million gallons) for turf irrigation alone. Parks and Schools irrigation conversion from potable to recycled water requires complex design and construction of over five miles of new pipeline along with a pump station and other separate water system elements, and approximately 1.5 years to construct and a very large funding budget.

The proposed RW Project generally includes constructing a new recycled water booster pump station and associated facilities, approximately five miles of 4-inch diameter to 12-inch diameter pressurized recycled water pipeline and appurtenances and retrofitting landscape irrigation systems at approximately twenty schools and parks within the City.

All construction will occur within previously disturbed public rights of way and easements. The Project will be constructed within existing City Streets and developed parcels including Soledad Unified School District school campuses and City of Soledad parks, and one new pipeline will be constructed within an existing easement across active farm fields between the City proper to the City island where the City’s WRF is located. That easement was previously created for a sanitary sewer line to serve the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, an existing City recycled water pipeline and an abandoned sanitary sewer line that formerly served Dole Fresh Vegetables.

On February 20, 2025, Soledad issued a Notice for Bids through PlanetBids for the City’s RW Project with a bid due date of March 27, 2025 and an engineer’s estimate of probable construction costs of $17,764,621. Three bids were received:
$13,780,764.80 Specialty Construction, Inc.
$14,686,755.40 Monterey Peninsula Engineering
$14,920,101.00 Sierra Construction & Excavation, Inc.

Staff reviewed the bid proposals and determined that Specialty Construction, Inc. (SCI) was a responsive and responsible bidder. SCI’s bid came in lower than the Engineer’s Estimate of $17,764,62, however, the bid exceeded the available construction budget. As such, the City and SCI negotiated a deductive change order that will reduce the scope of work as well as a value engineering deduction that will allow the City to go forward with the completion of roughly 90% of the Project within the available construction budget and still maintain the minimum recycled water offset required by the grant. This also includes a slight reduction of fourteen calendar construction days and enables completion of construction by the grant end date.

The initial scope of work included new pipelines to all city parks and schools and the associated work necessary to convert irrigation systems from potable to recycled water. The reduced scope removed some parks and schools with smaller turf areas where the cost of piping to those locations had the least benefit.

Staff notes that the low bid also came in significantly lower than the engineer’s estimate, due in part to bidding a large public works project in February within a very good “bidding climate” when contractors are eager to secure work for the spring through fall traditional construction season. 142
Therefore, Staff is recommending approval of a contract with SCI for construction services for a total amount not to exceed of $13,780,764.80 (plus $650,000 contingency) concurrently with a deductive change order in the amount of -$1,504,419.05 for a net total cost of $12,276,345.75 for the Soledad Recycled Water Conveyance Project. The City’s standard contract and change order forms will be used.

2. Construction Management
Highly competent Construction Management of a project of this complexity, size and duration are paramount to the success of the project. As such, on January 10, 2025, the City advertised on Planet Bids and in the Salinas Tribune a Request for Qualifications for Construction Management and Inspection Services for the City’s RW Project, with a due date of January 24, 2025. The RFQ included a detailed Scope of Work of the services the City will require for the entirety of this project, including full-time construction management including inspections for a 536-day project and over five miles of new pipelines trenched through existing city streets.

The City received four proposals from well-qualified firms. A four-member selection panel was assembled with internal and external members. Three RFQ proposals were deemed responsive; and, using the criteria established as advertised in the RFQ, the selection panel was unanimous in selecting Wallace Group.

Staff have met with the Wallace Group to discuss their fee estimate, which is based on their anticipated level of effort expended as necessary to complete the project scope of work on a time and materials basis (not lump sum or fixed cost fees). After review and discussion, Wallace Group submitted a fee estimate of $1.47 million. Staff negotiated with Wallace to reduce their fee estimate to no more than 10% of the construction cost initially, with a budget review at 50% of project completion.

Therefore, Staff recommends approval of a Consulting Services Agreement with The Wallace Group for construction management services for a total amount not to exceed of $1,232,864 for the Soledad RW Project. The City’s standard agreement form will be used.

3. CEQA
On November 15, 2023, the Council authorized Resolution No. 6021 with Carollo Engineers in part to prepare CEQA compliance documents for the RW Project.

The environmental impacts of the RW Project have been analyzed in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). An Initial Study was prepared to evaluate the potential impacts associated with the Project. Based upon review of the Initial Study, it can be determined that the Project will not have a significant effect on the environment because the mitigation measures outlined in the proposed Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program have been included in the Project (see attached Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration). The Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration were routed to responsible agencies, posted on the City’s website, and made available for review at City Hall. The Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration was received by the State Clearinghouse (SCH# 2025010539) and the deadline for public review was February 21, 2025 at 5:00 PM. Action on the environmental document precedes any action on the land use entitlements for this Project.

Comment letters were received from several Native American tribes concerning the possibility of 143
impacts on cultural or historic sensitivity and burial sites. Although it was determined that there were no observed or recorded archaeological sites in the Project area, the possibility of unrecorded sites warranted the imposition of mitigation measures meant to establish procedures for identifying and properly handling previously unrecorded archaeological resources. Implementation of such mitigation measures will assist the City to ensure that the project has a less than significant impact on Tribal cultural resources.

The City also received a letter from Caltrans requesting that the City follow the Caltrans process for an encroachment permit for any work performed within Caltrans and be done in accordance with Caltrans engineering and environmental standards and at no cost to the State. The Project does not include any work within Caltrans jurisdiction.

Staff is recommending that the Council adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program based on the findings set forth in the attached Resolution. The IS/MND document can be found at this link:

Summary
The objective of Soledad’s Recycled Water Conveyance Project is to replace up to 165 acre-feet (fiftyfour million gallons) per year of groundwater pumping with recycled water to offset the use of potable water to irrigate sports fields as a commonsense way to reduce groundwater use. The RW Project is the first public recycled water project in the region, similar to Soledad’s wind turbine that was the first of its kind in the region as well. In addition to the use of recycled water being a sustainable solution for turf irrigation as opposed to pumping groundwater for use as turf irrigation, recycled water can continue to be used for turf irrigation if and when Soledad may experience future extended drought periods. So even when drought conditions trigger water conservation stages that prohibit irrigation of turf at schools and parks with potable ground water, irrigation with recycled water can be continued.

The next steps for this project are:

Complete the City’s Recycled Water and Title 22 permit updates (in progress) Complete the project’s Construction Phase
Complete a Prop 218 Compliant RW Rate Study
Financial Considerations
On April 26, 2023, the City of Soledad entered into Grant Agreement #4600015016 with the State of CA for a UCDR Grant in the amount of $16,663,021. The recommended contract awards will be charged to the grant and are 100% reimbursable. A City match in the amount of $1,186,126 was listed in the grant application and was budgeted in the FY 2022-23 Adopted Budget but was not required in the final grant agreement and not included in the current FY 2024-25 adopted budget. Staff will make a recommendation at a later date that the Council authorize a similar amount in the FY 2025-26 budget in order to complete the elements of the project removed due to a budget shortfall to complete those elements now with the main project.

The design, construction and construction management of the Main Street Sewer Project, CIP # S09, that is also included in this recycled water project as a cost savings to both projects when done together, is being funded from the City’s sewer fund 310-0000-57000.

Chapter 1. Introduction and Project Description

1.1 INTRODUCTION
This Initial Study has been prepared to evaluate the potential environmental effects associated with the City of Soledad (“City”) Recycled Water Conveyance Project (“Project” or “Proposed Project”), located in the City of Soledad in Monterey County, California. This document has been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), Public Resources Code §21000 et. seq., and the State CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations (“CCR”) §15000 et. seq.

An Initial Study is an informational document prepared by a Lead Agency to determine if a project may have a significant effect on the environment (CEQA Guidelines §15063, subd. (a)). If there is substantial evidence that a project may have a significant effect on the environment, an Environmental Impact Report (“EIR”) must be prepared, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines §15064(a). However, if the Lead Agency determines that revisions in the project plans or proposals made by or agreed to by the applicant to mitigate the potentially significant effects to a less than significant level, a Mitigated Negative Declaration (“IS/MND”) may be prepared instead of an EIR (CEQA Guidelines §15070, subd. (b)). Per CEQA Guidelines for an IS/MND, a Lead Agency prepares a written statement describing the reasons a proposed project would not have a significant effect on the environment and, therefore, why an EIR need not be prepared. This IS/MND conforms to the content requirements under CEQA Guidelines §15071.

The City is acting as the Lead Agency pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15050(a). As the Lead Agency, the City has prepared this IS/MND pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15063, §15070, and §15152 as the project does have some significant impacts on the environment that can be mitigated to less than significant with identified measures. This IS/MND will be circulated for agency and public review during a 30-day public review period pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15073. Comments received by the City on this IS/MND will be reviewed and considered as part of the deliberative process in accordance with CEQA Guidelines §15074.

Publication of this IS/MND marks the beginning of a 30-day public review and comment period. During this period, the IS/MND will be available to local, state, and federal agencies and to interested organizations and individuals for review. Written comments concerning the environmental review contained in this IS/MND during the 30-day public review period should be sent to:

Don Wilcox, Director of Public Works
248 Main Street, Soledad, CA 93960
(831) 223-5124
[email protected]
This IS/MND and all documents referenced in it are available for public review at the City’s Public Works Department at the above address. Following the conclusion of the public review period, the City will consider the adoption of the IS/MND for the Proposed Project at a regularly scheduled public hearing.

The City shall consider the IS/MND together with any comments received during the public review process. Upon adoption of the IS/MND, the City may proceed with approval actions for the Proposed Project. If the City approves the Project, the City will file a Notice of Determination (“NOD”), which will be available for public inspection and posted in 24 hours of receipt at the County Clerk’s Office for 30 155
Soledad Recycled Water Conveyance Project 2 Draft ISMND City of Soledad January 2025
days. The filing of the NOD starts a 30-day statute of limitations on court challenges to the approval under CEQA (CEQA Guidelines Section 15075(g)).

The City prepared the following section consistent with the requirements of CEQA Guidelines Section 15124 to the extent that it applies to the Proposed Project. Additionally, the information contained in this section has also been prepared to satisfy the applicable CEQA Plus requirements. The following section provides a discussion of key background details related to the Proposed Project, including project components, site and area characteristics, and applicable regulatory requirements.

1.2 BACKGROUND
The City retained Carollo Engineers, Inc. (“Carollo”) to develop preliminary and final design documents for the Recycled Water Conveyance Project. The Project is being funded by the Department of Water Resources (“DWR”) under the Urban Community Drought Relief (“UCDR”) Grant and is subjected to the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Agreement between the State of California DWR and the City (Agreement No. 4600015016, UCDR Grant). A Basis of Design Report (“BODR”) prepared by Carollo (May 2024) described existing site conditions, existing and proposed system components, design criteria, and included technical and engineering decisions to be used for the preparation of the final design documents for the Project (Appendix A). The Proposed Project is intended to provide Title 22 recycled water from the City’s Water Reclamation Facility (“WRF”) to 20 schools and parks throughout the City and is part of a larger multi-phase City water conveyance project, consisting of the following phases:
 Phase 1 (completed in 2010): Design and construction of a new 5.5 million gallons per day (“MGD”) water reclamation facility and approximately 10,200 linear feet (“LF”) of 8-inch diameter recycled water transmission pipeline.
 Phase 2 (completed in 2018): Design and construction of approximately 3,800 LF of 12-inch diameter recycled water transmission pipeline to connect all the existing Phase 1 8-inch pipeline.
 Phase 3 (Project): Design and construction of a city-wide distribution system to irrigated landscaped areas within twenty City’s parks and schools. Details of the required facilities are provided below in Section 1.5, Proposed Project.
 Phase 4 (Future): New transmission pipeline to provide recycled water to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (“CDCR”) facilities within an Incorporated City “Island” three (3) miles north of the City.

Figure 1 shows the regional location of the Project and Figure 2 shows an aerial view of the project area.

The existing facilities are shown in Figure 3. The pipeline constructed during Phases 1 and 2 is referred to as the transmission pipeline. Phases 1 and 2 were previously completed. The pipelines and associated improvements to be constructed within the City during Phase 3 are referred to as the distribution system. Phase 3 comprises the Proposed Project as analyzed in this CEQA document. Phase 4 is not included as part of the Proposed Project analyzed within this document and would require future CEQA analysis if implemented.

Soledad Recycled Water Conveyance Project 6 Draft ISMND City of Soledad January 2025
The WRF is owned and operated by the City and treats wastewater from the City and CDCR facilities. It produces disinfected, tertiary treated effluent that meets Title 22, Division 4, Chapter 3, California Code of Regulations (“CCR”) for recycled water. It is operating around 2.45 MGD average daily flow and the effluent is currently being discharged to rapid infiltration basins adjacent to the WRF for aquifer recharge. The current discharge permit limits recharge to 4.3 MGD with the remaining 1.2 MGD of peak flow capacity designated for non-potable reuse.

1.3 PROJECT LOCATION
The Proposed Project is located primarily within the City of Soledad in Monterey County, as shown in Figure 1, and is subject to the requirements in the City’s 2005 General Plan. The City is in the process of updating the General Plan, anticipated for adoption in 2025, but the current Project would comply with the adopted 2005 General Plan that is currently in effect. The Project would provide recycled water from the City’s WRF, located at 34520 Morisoli Road (Assessor’s Parcel Numbers [“APNs”] 257-082-018, 257- 082-020, and 257-082-021) to schools and parks throughout the City. Most proposed facilities are located within the City’s WRF property and in City rights of way (“ROW”) and would not require additional property. The City has a 20-foot-wide easement for the existing transmission main running from the WRF to Front Street, which is located within farmland. This portion of the Proposed Project is located within unincorporated Monterey County and is subject to the requirements contained in the County’s 2010 General Plan. The existing easement would be reviewed during final design to determine if additional permanent and temporary easements are required. Regional access to the Project area is provided from U.S. 101 (“Highway 101”) and State Route 146 (“SR 146”). Local access to the Project area is provided by roadways throughout the City. Access to the WRF is provided via Morisoli Road to a onehalf mile driveway connecting Morisoli Road to the WRF main gate. Figures 4a through 4e shows site photos of the Project area.

1.4 SURROUNDING LAND USES AND SETTING
The Project site is surrounded by residential, commercial, public facilities (i.e., parks and schools), and agricultural land uses. Residential uses surrounding the Project primarily consist of single-family residences and multi-family residences. Commercial use surrounding the Proposed Project primarily comprises retail businesses and a segment of general commercial area along Front Street and Highway 101. Figure 5 shows the land uses within the Project area.

1.5 PROPOSED PROJECT
The Proposed Project consists of installing and operating infrastructure necessary to convey Title 22 recycled water from the City’s WRF to up to 20 parks and schools throughout the City. The Project includes the construction of a booster pump facility, distribution piping system, and appurtenances, new or converted irrigation systems, and cross-connection prevention assemblies, as well as construction management, environmental work, planning, and design. The expansion would replace a minimum of 165 acre-feet (54 million gallons) per year of groundwater pumping with recycled water to offset the use of potable water to irrigate sports fields and reduce groundwater use. 160
