TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Don Wilcox, Public Works Director, Juan Huerta, Assistant Engineer MEETING DATE: April 15, 2026

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.6348, "Accepting the Water Reclamation Facility Entry Gate as Complete by Plummerbuilt and Authorizing the Release of Retention in the Amount of $5,709."
Executive Summary
Plummerbuilt has completed the Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) Entry Gate Project, which was inspected by City staff and deemed complete. The project consisted of fabricating and installing a new automated gate at the City’s wastewater facility as needed to enhance safety and security.

Staff have reviewed the completed work and determined that the project was constructed in accordance with the approved plans and City standards. Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council accept the project as complete and authorize the release of retention to Plummerbuilt in the amount of $5,709.

Background
The WRF Entry Gate was announced for bids through PlanetBids on March 13, 2025, with submissions due by April 10, 2025. The City received no bids for this project and proceeded to solicit direct bids from contractors pursuant to the Soledad Municipal Code Section 3.24.080.

On August 6, 2025, the City Council approved the award of the construction contract to Plummerbuilt Inc. in the amount of $113,140, with a 10% contingency, for a not-to-exceed total of $124,454.

After receiving Council approval, the contractor began construction. All improvements were finished in February 2026, and City staff later inspected the work for compliance with project specifications and City Standards.
40 Resolution No. 6348
Review & Analysis
The project involved the fabrication and installation of a new automated steel entry gate at the City’s Wastewater Reclamation Facility. This upgrade replaced the existing manually operated gate and enhanced site security by better controlling access and deterring unauthorized entry. Construction was completed smoothly, with no significant issues or major changes to the original scope.

Staff reviewed the completed work and found that it complies with the approved plans and City standards. Based on this, staff recommends that the City Council formally accept the project as complete and approve the release of $5,709 in retention to Plummerbuilt.

Financial Considerations
The project was entirely funded through the Wastewater Capital Projects Fund, with $120,000 allocated this fiscal year as part of the CIP.

Project funding and expenditures are summarized below:

Funding Source: $120,000
Total Project Cost: $113,140
The retention payment of $5,709 will be released to Plummerbuilt upon City Council acceptance of the project.

Strategic Plan Alignment
This project is critical to preserving the safety of the Water Reclamation Facility with the installation of an electric entrance gate consistent with Objective 4.5.3 – Assess and modernize community facilities.

Alternatives
Approve the resolution as presented; or
Reject the proposed resolution. This is not recommended as the contractor is entitled to the retention for successful completion of the project.

Planning/CEQA
The proposed project is categorically exempt under Class 1 Existing Facilities, as it meets the criteria outlined in CEQA Guidelines Section 15301. Class 1 includes the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor modification of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving little to no expansion.

Public Notice Requirements
None required.

TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Don Wilcox, Public Works Director and Alex Ramos, Engineering Project Manager
MEETING DATE: April 15, 2026

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.6349, “Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Contract Change Orders up to $400,000 of the $650,000 Construction Contingency for the Soledad Recycled Water Conveyance Project on Behalf of the City of Soledad.”
Executive Summary
The City Council is being asked to authorize the City Manager to approve contract change orders of up to $400,000 for the Soledad Recycled Water Conveyance Project within the Council-approved construction contingency. This authorization would enhance the City’s ability to respond promptly to unforeseen field conditions and help maintain the project schedule. As construction advances through older areas of the City with limited documentation of existing utilities, the likelihood of encountering unexpected conditions has increased. Additionally, the project is funded through the Urban Community Drought Relief Grant Program, which requires completion by December 31, 2026, with no anticipated extensions. Granting the City Manager limited additional authority will help minimize construction delays, reduce the potential for added costs, and support timely completion of the project within the approved budget and grant requirements.

Background
The City of Soledad has consistently included construction contingency in its Public Works projects in recent years. This practice is based on prior project experience, where unforeseen site conditions, minor design changes or omissions, quantity overruns, field adjustments, and cost fluctuations have occurred during construction. As a result, construction contingency is now a standard component of the 44 City’s staff reports and project award process to account for these uncertainties.

For larger capital projects, construction contingency is typically scaled in proportion to the overall project cost. The City Council previously approved the Soledad Recycled Water Conveyance Project with a base construction contract amount of $12,276,346 and an additional $650,000 in construction contingency. Since project award, one change order has been processed in addition to a deductive change order executed at the time of award. The change order, in the amount of $78,035.34, was presented to the City Council on April 1, 2026, and addressed unforeseen utility conflicts, minor design adjustments, and quantity increases encountered during construction.

The additional work associated with this change order primarily consisted of time-and-materials work resulting from field conditions that were not identified in the contract documents. These included efforts to locate unknown sewer laterals, potholing to verify connection points not shown on the plans, rerouting pipeline installation around an unmarked manhole, and removal of unanticipated slurry material at the future pump station site. These conditions were not reflected in available record drawings or the original construction plans. Change orders associated with these conditions require City Council approval when exceeding administrative authority thresholds. In this case, the City Manager approval is limited to $50,000.

Review & Analysis
Construction contingency has proven to be an effective tool in allowing Staff to address unforeseen conditions, maintain project schedules, and minimize cost impacts during construction. However, this benefit is limited when required change orders exceed the City Manager’s current signing authority of $50,000 and must be brought before the City Council for approval. This process requires additional time for staff report preparation, coordination, and scheduling within the City Council meeting calendar.

Delays associated with Council approval timelines can extend from several weeks to over a month, particularly during periods with limited meeting availability. These delays may result in construction inefficiencies, including contractor downtime, remobilization costs, and impacts to the overall project schedule.

The Soledad Recycled Water Conveyance Project is currently progressing into the older sections of the City, where existing utility infrastructure is less documented and more prone to conflicts. As observed along Oak Street, construction activities have encountered unrecorded utilities, resulting in necessary field adjustments and change order work. As construction continues along Alignment A, Staff anticipates additional unforeseen conditions and associated change orders.

This project is funded through the Urban Community Drought Relief grant program with a strict completion deadline of December 31, 2026. No further extensions will be allowed by the State. Failure to complete the project within this timeframe may result in the City being responsible for costs incurred beyond the grant deadline.

At this stage of construction, approximately 80 percent of the recycled water pipeline installation has been completed. However, this project includes rigorous testing of the pipeline system, construction of the project’s pump station at the Water Reclamation Facility, and the conversion of all turf fields at Soledad Parks & Soledad Unified School District. The current project schedule anticipates completion between late October and mid-November 2026. Maintaining this schedule is critical to ensuring grant compliance and avoiding additional costs to the City. To support timely project delivery and minimize 45 Resolution No. 6349
the risk of delays, Staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to approve contract change orders up to $400,000 of the approved construction contingency. This approach allows the City to respond promptly to unforeseen field conditions while maintaining Council-approved budget limits. The remaining contingency would continue to require City Council approval.

Financial Considerations
The Urban Community Drought Relief Grant Program is the primary funding source for the Soledad Recycled Water Conveyance Project. The total project, including the $650,000 construction contingency, has been previously approved by the City Council. Approval of this item does not increase the overall project budget or require additional City funding. Instead, it authorizes the City Manager to approve contract change orders up to $400,000 within the existing Council-approved construction contingency.

This authorization is intended to facilitate timely responses to unforeseen field conditions and reduce the potential for construction delays that could result in additional costs, including contractor downtime or impacts associated with failing to meet the grant funding deadline.

Strategic Plan Alignment
This project is consistent with Objective 3.4.3 – Expand water reuse and conservation systems.

Specifically, the Strategic Plan identifies implementing the Recycled Water Project by the end of the 2026.

Alternatives
Adopt the proposed Resolution; or
Do not adopt the proposed Resolution. This is not recommended as the project must be completed by the December 31, 2026, deadline, and rejecting this item may put us at risk of not meeting said deadline.

Planning/CEQA
The project was previously evaluated through an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for the Recycled Water Conveyance Project. The proposed change order work is within the scope of the approved environmental document.

Public Notice Requirements
None required.

TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Beatriz Trujillo, Community and Economic Development Director and Kimberly Herrera, Management Analyst
MEETING DATE: April 15, 2026

CITY OF SOLEDAD

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

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council consider and adopt Resolution No.6350, “Approving a Professional Services Agreement with Benitez Security Services, Inc. in an Amount Not to Exceed $83,968 and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute said Agreement” for continued provision of unarmed security services at Sendero.

Executive Summary
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement with Benitez Security Services, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $83,968 for continued unarmed security services at Sendero. Developed through Encampment Resolution Funding Round 3 (ERF-3), the Sendero project transitioned individuals from a longstanding riverbed encampment into a safe, service-supported environment. As operations have stabilized, including expanded on-site staffing by Step-Up on Second and the installation of security cameras, staff have reassessed security needs and identified opportunities to reduce service hours while maintaining site safety.

The proposed agreement reflects a modified schedule totaling 72 hours per week, prioritizing overnight coverage and full-day coverage on Sundays. Benitez Security has demonstrated reliability and familiarity with site operations, contributing to a stable environment for participants and surrounding properties. The agreement will ensure continuity of services through December 31, 2026, and is fully funded through ERF-3 grant funds with no impact to the General Fund. This action advances Strategic Plan Goal 2.3.2 by supporting a Housing First approach and interim-to-permanent housing strategies to achieve functional zero homelessness.
49 Background
The Encampment Resolution Funding (ERF) Program was established in 2022 to support local jurisdictions in resolving encampments and transitioning individuals into safe and stable housing. In 2024, the County of Monterey applied and was awarded $4,726,964 under ERF-3 for the Salinas River/Soledad Encampment Project, with $2,691,087.60 sub-granted to the City of Soledad to develop an interim housing site and provide related services.

Due to significant health and safety concerns, individuals residing along the riverbed were provisionally relocated in February 2025 to 990 Los Coches Road while the interim housing site, Sendero, was under development. To support operations at the provisional site, the City entered into an agreement with Benitez Security Services, Inc. in May 2025 to provide 24-hour unarmed security services. Following a series of amendments, the contract was extended through January 25, 2026, with a total not-to-exceed amount of $195,750.

With the closure of the provisional encampment site and the completion and occupancy of the Sendero, operational needs shifted to a more stabilized service model. Beginning January 26, 2026, the City executed a new short-term agreement under the City Manager’s signing authority for 12-hour daily security services at Sendero, in an amount not to exceed $47,616 through April 30, 2026. This interim agreement allowed staff to assess the appropriate level of security coverage needed under the new site conditions. Additionally, Step-Up on Second, the City’s service provider, expanded on-site operations by implementing a swing shift schedule with staff present Monday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., further supporting participant oversight and coordination.

Continuity in security services has remained a priority, as Benitez Security’s familiarity with the site and participants has helped maintain a safe and stable environment. However, in alignment with evolving operational needs, security service levels have been adjusted to reflect reduced hours while continuing to prioritize coverage during higher-need periods, including overnight and peak activity times.

Review & Analysis
During the initial short-term professional services agreement, staff evaluated operational needs at the Sendero to determine an appropriate level of ongoing security services. This assessment considered key changes in site operations, including the implementation of a swing shift by Step-Up on Second, providing on-site staff coverage Monday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., as well as the installation of exterior security cameras. Collectively, these enhancements have strengthened on-site oversight, improved coordination with participants, and reduced reliance on continuous security staffing.

Based on this analysis, staff has determined that a reduced level of contracted security services is sufficient to maintain site safety while aligning with current operational conditions. Specifically, on days when Step-Up staff are present (Monday through Saturday, 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.), security services are proposed to be limited to the evening and overnight period from 8:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m. (8 continuous hours), as early morning hours have consistently demonstrated minimal activity. On Sundays, when Step-Up staff are not on-site, 24-hour security coverage will be maintained. This adjusted schedule results in a total of 72 hours of security services per week. In addition, Step-Up will work to identify program participants who may be ready to provide peer support in exchange for a stipend, assisting with on-site monitoring and response during lower-activity periods. 50 Resolution No. 6350
Exhibit A
The adjusted security schedule continues to prioritize coverage during higher-need periods while leveraging enhanced on-site staffing and infrastructure improvements. Maintaining a consistent security presence remains critical to ensuring participant safety, supporting compliance with site rules, and minimizing impacts to surrounding properties. Approval of the proposed agreement is necessary to extend the contract term through December 31, 2026, in an amount not to exceed $83,968, ensuring continuity of security services at the Sendero. Benitez Security Services, Inc. has demonstrated reliability and effectiveness in providing these services, and their familiarity with site operations and participants has contributed to a stable and well-managed environment. The full agreement terms are detailed in the Professional Services Agreement, attached as Exhibit A.

Financial Considerations
Agreement will be fully funded through Encampment Resolution Funding Round 3 (ERF-3) grant funds. No General Fund dollars will be used.

Strategic Plan Alignment
This item advances Strategic Plan Goal 2.3.2, as Sendero supports the implementation of comprehensive homelessness solutions grounded in a Housing First approach and interim-topermanent housing strategies aimed at achieving functional zero homelessness.

Alternatives
Approve Agreement to the Professional Services Agreement with Benitez Security Services, Inc. (Recommended)
Do not approve Agreement. This alternative is not recommended, as it would result in a lapse in security services at the ERF-3 Sendero Interim Site.

Planning/CEQA
Not a Project. The City of Soledad has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).

Public Notice Requirements
Not Required.

FROM: Patrick Valenzuela, Police Chief
MEETING DATE: April 15, 2026

CITY OF SOLEDAD

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

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and adopt Resolution No.6351, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad Approving an Agreement between the Soledad Education Foundation and the Soledad Police Department for Police Services during the 2026 Soledad Education Foundation Carnival".

Executive Summary
The City Council is being asked to approve a contract for police services between the Soledad Education Foundation (“Foundation”) and the Soledad Police Department for the 2026 Soledad Education Foundation Carnival. The Foundation has requested additional on-site police services to supplement required private security in response to public safety concerns stemming from the 2025 Carnival, during which a minor was found in possession of a firearm. While the event has historically relied exclusively on private security, the requested police presence is intended to enhance overall safety for attendees, staff, and vendors. Although the Foundation initially sought these services as an inkind contribution, the Soledad Police Department is unable to provide in-kind services due to operational impacts and overtime budget constraints. As a result, the Foundation has agreed to fully reimburse the City for the cost of the requested services.

Background
The Soledad Education Foundation (“Foundation”) has hosted its annual Carnival event in the City of Soledad for several years at Frank Ledesma Elementary School, with event proceeds supporting scholarships and community programs. For 2026, the Carnival is scheduled to take place on April 16 from 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., April 17 from 4:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., and April 18 from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Historically, the event has been approved administratively through a Temporary Use Permit, as no in-kind City services were requested and the Foundation was required to provide private security 69 to ensure public safety.

During the 2025 Carnival event, a security incident occurred involving a minor found with a firearm inside the event area. Although the situation was addressed, it raised concerns regarding the adequacy of existing security measures for large-scale public gatherings.

In response, the Foundation requested additional support from the Soledad Police Department for the 2026 event, including supplemental private security personnel. While the Foundation initially requested in-kind police services, current staffing constraints and reduced overtime funding prevent the Police Department from accommodating in-kind support at this time. The Foundation has therefore agreed to reimburse the City in full for all police services related to the event.

As this request involves City resources and police services beyond standard operations, a formal agreement has been prepared and is presented to the City Council for review and approval.

Review & Analysis
The proposed contract, attached as Exhibit A, outlines the scope, responsibilities, and conditions under which the Soledad Police Department will provide services during the dates and times of the event.

These services are intended to complement, not replace, the required private security measures already imposed as a condition of the event permit.

The number of sworn personnel anticipated for the event includes (three sworn police officers, one per day), who will be assigned to provide services such as patrol, entry monitoring support.

Although the request was initially presented as an in-kind public service, the Police Department has determined that providing such services without reimbursement is not feasible at this time due to existing service demands and budgetary constraints related to overtime. As a result, the agreement has been structured to require full cost recovery from the Foundation.

City Council authorization is required to ensure transparency, accountability, and consistency with City policies regarding the use of public resources. Staff find that the request is reasonable given the prior incident and crowds estimated at 8,000 for the three-day event.

Financial Considerations
The financial impact to the City will be mitigated through full cost recovery. The Foundation has agreed to reimburse the city for all personnel, overtime, administrative, and any additional costs associated with police services for the event.

This approach ensures that there is no net financial burden on the City’s General Fund and addresses current Police Department budget constraints, including limitations on overtime expenditures.

Additionally, the agreement should confirm that the provision of services will not negatively impact on the Police Department’s ability to maintain regular service levels and respond to calls for service citywide.

Strategic Plan Alignment
The proposed resolution advances the City’s Strategic Plan by implementing Safety Goal 6.1.1:

Fostering proactive engagement to prevent crime and strengthen relationships between police and 70 Resolution No. 6351
Exhibit A
Exhibit B
residents. Police presence at the 2026 Soledad Education Foundation Carnival will promote public safety while also creating opportunities for positive, community-oriented interaction between officers and residents. This approach supports transparency, builds trust and cooperation, and helps ensure that all community members, feel safe and comfortable engaging with law enforcement personnel.

Alternatives
Adopt the proposed Resolution; or
Do not adopt the proposed Resolution. This is not advised, as the additional police support will ensure a safe event for the community.

Planning/CEQA
The approval of an agreement between the Soledad Education Foundation and the Soledad Police Department for police services during the 2026 Carnival event 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 are exempt.

Public Notice Requirements
Not required.

78 SUBJECT: Accept by Minute Motion the 2025 Water System Consumer Confidence Report
TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Don Wilcox, Public Works Director, Carla James, Water Resources Manager
MEETING DATE: April 15, 2026

CITY OF SOLEDAD

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

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council accept the attached 2025 City of Soledad Water System Consumer Confidence Report, also known as the Annual Water Quality Report.

Executive Summary
Each year, the City of Soledad prepares an Annual Consumer Confidence Report, also known as an Annual Water Quality Report, to notify City customers (consumers) about the source of their drinking water and any regulated contaminant(s) that may be present. In addition, the CCR provides information on the levels of any unregulated contaminant(s) for which monitoring has been required. The City of Soledad water system provides water to all consumers within the city limits only. The City of Soledad water system had no water quality violations in 2025. There may have been some private water systems near Soledad (outside the city limits) with water quality violations; however, the City of Soledad has no involvement in or responsibilities for those outside water systems. The 2025 CCR covers water quality data from January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025. The completed 2025 CCR must be distributed to consumers by July 1, 2026.

Background
Pursuant to the 1996 Amendments to the Safe Drinking Water Act, all public community water systems that serve the same people year-round must prepare an Annual Consumer Confidence / Water Quality Report for their customers. The Report is delivered to customers by July 1 each year and covers water quality monitoring data from the previous calendar year. The report describes the sources of the City’s drinking water (groundwater wells), the ranges and average levels of constituents that are present in the City’s drinking water, and how consumers can help protect the City’s water sources.

Review & Analysis
Annual Consumer Confidence / Water Quality Reports are the centerpiece of the right-to-know 79 provisions in the 1996 Amendments to the Safe Drinking Water Act. The Consumer Confidence / Water Quality Report is mailed to each water service customer so that data is available to everyone who drinks water from that location.

As required by California Health & Safety Code §116470 and California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Chapter 15, Article 20, the Annual Consumer Confidence / Water Quality Report must contain the following information:

The type of water served (such as groundwater, surface water, or water from another system) and the name and location of its source.

Regulated and unregulated contaminants that have been detected in the water, their concentrations, and the allowable federal or state standard.

Disinfection by-products or microbial contaminants; their concentrations and standards.

Descriptions of possible health effects of contaminants in drinking water at concentrations greater than the federal or state health standard.

Identification of the likely source of any contamination.

Violations of any monitoring, reporting, treatment, or record-keeping requirements.

Opportunities for public involvement and water system contact information.

As the City’s Annual 2025 Consumer Confidence / Water Quality Report indicates, the City of Soledad continues to provide drinking water that meets or exceeds all state and federal drinking water standards.

There may have been some private water systems near Soledad (outside the city limits) with water quality violations; however, the City of Soledad has no involvement in or responsibilities for those outside water systems.

Attached is a copy of the 2025 Annual Consumer Confidence / Water Quality Report for your review.

This report will be mailed to every water customer and will be available on the City’s website in English and Spanish.

Financial Considerations
The cost of preparing and mailing the report is estimated at $12,000. The City contracts with the Gemini Group for these services, which is paid by the Water Enterprise Fund.

Strategic Plan Alignment
Ensuring the ongoing monitoring of our water systems in consistent with Objective 3.4.1 – Upgrade and modernize water, wastewater, and stormwater systems for long-term sustainability and ef iciency.

Moreover, by sharing this report in a timely matter with our customers, the City is advancing Objective

10.2.2 – Increase transparency, open communication, and public access.

Alternatives
This is a federally mandated report and must be completed.

Planning/CEQA
The generation of the CCR Report is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378). Because the matter does not cause a direct or foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be subjected to CEQA review. 80 2025 Annual Water Quality Report

You are invited to attend City of Soledad Council meetings and share your ideas and concerns about your drinking water. The Soledad Council meets the first and third Wednesday of each month at 6:00 p.m. at City Hall, 248 Main Street. Our office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to noon and 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. Zoom and agenda links are on cityofsoledad.com.

Drinking Water Source Assessment
A Drinking Water Source Assessment Plan (DWSAP) is an assessment of the delineated area around our listed sources through which contaminants, if present, could migrate and reach our source water. It also includes an inventory of potential sources of contamination within the delineated area and a determination of the water supply’s susceptibility to contamination by the identified potential sources. According to the DWSAPs, our water system had a medium susceptibility rating. If you would like to review the DWSAPs, please contact the public works manager during regular office hours.

Our Commitment
We are pleased to present to you the 2025 Consumer Confidence Report (CCR) containing water quality data from testing performed between January 1 and December 31, 2025. Included are details about your source of water, what it contains, and how it compares to standards set by regulatory agencies. Our constant goal is to provide you with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. We want you to understand the efforts we make to continually improve the water treatment process and protect our water resources. We are committed to ensuring the quality of your water and providing you with this information because informed customers are our best allies.

Substances That Could Be in Water
The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity.

Contaminants that may be present in source water include:

Microbial Contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife; Inorganic Contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally occurring or result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming; Pesticides and Herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater runoff, and residential uses; Organic Chemical Contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff, agricultural application, and septic systems; and
Radioactive Contaminants, which can be naturally occurring or the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.

To ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the U.S. EPA and State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) prescribe regulations that limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulations and California law also establish limits for contaminants in bottled water that provide the same protection for public health.

Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the U.S. EPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791.

Where Does My Water Come From?
The City of Soledad’s residents were fortunate during this past year to enjoy an abundant groundwater supply from the city’s wells. All five of these wells were active in 2025. The wells have a combined pumping capacity of about 4,788 gallons per minute.

In 2025, these five wells pumped more than 688.6 million gallons of clean drinking water. To learn more about our watershed online, visit U.S. EPA’s How’s My Waterway at epa.gov/waterdata/hows-my-waterway.

The water supply for the City of Soledad wells comes from aquifers that are continuously replenished with releases of water from the San Antonio and Nacimiento Reservoirs. The reservoirs are operated by the Monterey County Water Resources Agency (MCWRA).

According to MCWRA data, approximately 90.8 percent of the water from the Salinas Valley aquifers is consumed by agricultural operations. City populations consume about

9.2 percent of the groundwater supply.

Important Health Information
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immunocompromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/ AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health-care providers. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA)/Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791 or epa.gov/safewater.

Questions?
For more information about this report, or for any questions relating to your drinking water, please contact Moises Arizmendi, Public Works Manager, at (831) 223-5190 or [email protected] or Carla James, Water Resources Manager, at (831) 223- 5012 or [email protected].
82 Test Results
Our water is monitored for many different kinds of substances on a very strict sampling schedule, and the water we deliver must meet specific health standards. Here, we only show those substances that were detected in our water (a complete list of all our analytical results is available upon request).

Remember that detecting a substance does not mean the water is unsafe to drink; our goal is to keep all detects below their respective maximum allowed levels.

The state allows monitoring for certain substances less than once per year because the concentrations of these substances do not change frequently. In these cases, the most recent sample data is included, along with the year in which the sample was taken.

We participated in the fifth stage of the U.S. EPA’s Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR5) program by performing additional tests on our drinking water. UCMR5 sampling benefits the environment and public health by providing the U.S. EPA with data on the occurrence of contaminants suspected to be in drinking water to determine if it needs to introduce new regulatory standards to improve drinking water quality. Unregulated contaminant monitoring data is available to the public, so please feel free to contact us if you are interested in obtaining that information. If you would like more information on the U.S. EPA’s Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule, please call the Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791.

Lead in Home Plumbing
Lead can cause serious health effects in people of all ages, especially pregnant people, infants (both formula-fed and breastfed), and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and parts used in service lines and in home plumbing. The City of Soledad Water Division is responsible for providing high-quality drinking water and removing lead pipes but cannot control the variety of materials used in the plumbing in your home. Because lead levels may vary over time, lead exposure is possible even when your tap sampling results do not detect lead at one point in time. You can help protect yourself and your family by identifying and removing lead materials within your home plumbing and taking steps to reduce your family’s risk. Using a filter certified by an American National Standards Institute-accredited certifier to reduce lead is effective in reducing lead exposures. Follow the instructions provided with the filter to ensure it is used properly. Use only cold water for drinking, cooking, and making baby formula. Boiling does not remove lead from water.

Before using tap water for drinking, cooking, or making baby formula, flush your pipes for several minutes. You can do this by running your tap, taking a shower, or doing laundry or a load of dishes. If you have a lead service line or galvanized requiring replacement service line, you may need to flush your pipes for a longer period. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available at epa.gov/safewater/lead.

To address lead in drinking water, public water systems were required to develop and maintain an inventory of service line materials by October 16, 2024. Developing an inventory and identifying the location of LSLs is the first step for beginning LSL replacement and protecting public health. To view the lead service inventory, or if you would like more information about the inventory or any lead sampling that has been done, contact Moises Arizmendi, City of Soledad Public Works Manager, at (831) 223-5190.

What’s a Cross-Connection?
Cross-Connections that contaminate drinking water distribution lines are a major concern. A cross-connection is formed at any point where a drinking water line connects to equipment (boilers), systems containing chemicals (air-conditioning systems, fire sprinkler systems, irrigation systems), or water sources of questionable quality. Cross-connection contamination can occur when the pressure in the equipment or system is greater than the pressure inside the drinking water line (backpressure). Contamination can also occur when the pressure in the drinking water line drops due to fairly routine occurrences (main breaks, heavy water demand), causing contaminants to be sucked out from the equipment and into the drinking water line (backsiphonage).

Outside water taps and garden hoses tend to be the most common sources of cross-connection contamination at home. The garden hose creates a hazard when submerged in a swimming pool or attached to a chemical sprayer for weed killing. Garden hoses that are left lying on the ground may be contaminated by fertilizers, cesspools, or garden chemicals. Improperly installed valves in your toilet could also be a source of cross-connection contamination.

Community water supplies are continuously jeopardized by cross-connections unless appropriate valves, known as backflow prevention devices, are installed and maintained. We have surveyed industrial, commercial, and institutional facilities in the service area to make sure that potential cross-connections are identified and eliminated or protected by a backflow preventer. We also inspect and test backflow preventers to make sure that they provide maximum protection.

For more information on backflow prevention, contact the Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791.
83 SUBJECT: Resolution No. 6352, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad, Adopting the Vision Zero Action Plan for the City of Soledad TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Don Wilcox, Public Works Director, Alex Ramos, Engineering Project Manager
MEETING DATE: April 15, 2026

CITY OF SOLEDAD

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

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and adopt Resolution No.6352, “Adopting the Vision Zero Action Plan for the City of Soledad.” Executive Summary
The City of Soledad, in coordination with the Transportation Agency for Monterey County and regional partners, has participated in developing the Monterey County Regional Vision Zero Action Plan, a datadriven safety framework funded by the federal Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) program. The Plan evaluates roadway conditions using collision history, traffic patterns, and high-injury corridors to identify targeted strategies for reducing traffic- related fatalities and serious injuries. It incorporates public engagement, equity considerations, and performance measures to ensure recommendations reflect community needs across Monterey County. Adoption of the Plan is required to maintain eligibility for future SS4A implementation funding and positions the City of Soledad to compete for grants supporting safety improvements such as traffic calming, roadway reconfiguration, and pedestrian and bicycle enhancements. Approval of the Plan does not obligate the City to implement specific projects or commit to immediate expenditures, but instead represents a policy-level commitment to Vision Zero principles. There is no cost to the City associated with adoption, as the Plan is fully funded through the SS4A program administered by TAMC.

Background
As part of ongoing regional efforts to improve roadway safety and reduce traffic-related fatalities and serious injuries, the Transportation Agency for Monterey County (TAMC) has initiated the development of a Monterey County Regional Vision Zero Action Plan. This effort is funded through a federal Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) planning grant and is being developed in coordination with participating local jurisdictions, including the City of Soledad. 84 The Regional Vision Zero Action Plan will serve as a comprehensive, data-driven safety planning document that identifies high-risk roadway conditions, establishes safety goals, and outlines strategies and projects to improve safety for all roadway users. The Plan will include both a regional framework and jurisdiction-specific components to address local safety needs.

As part of this effort, TAMC is supporting the preparation of a Vision Zero Action Plan for each participating jurisdiction. Adoption of a Vision Zero Action Plan is required for eligibility under the federal SS4A Grant Program, which provides funding for implementing roadway safety improvements identified in the plan.

Review & Analysis
The proposed Vision Zero Action Plan provides the City with a strategic framework to proactively address roadway safety and reduce the likelihood of traffic- related fatalities and serious injuries. The planning process included a comprehensive evaluation of roadway conditions, including collision history, traffic patterns, and identification of high-injury corridors, to inform targeted safety strategies and improvements.

Adopting the Vision Zero Action Plan establishes the City’s eligibility for future SS4A implementation grant funding for safety improvements such as traffic calming measures, roadway reconfigurations, and pedestrian and bicycle enhancements. Federal guidelines require jurisdictions to adopt a qualifying safety action plan to compete for these funds.

The Plan also incorporates public engagement, equity considerations, and performance measures to ensure that safety improvements are responsive to community needs and are implemented effectively over time. These elements support a transparent and data-driven approach to improving roadway safety. The project team conducted two rounds of community outreach in Soledad through workshops, pop-up events, and an online survey and interactive comment map. The first round, held in Summer 2025, identified transportation safety challenges and opportunities, while the second round in Fall 2025 presented recommended priority areas and proposed improvements for community feedback. Across both phases, a total of 42 comments were received, reflecting meaningful community participation in shaping the Plan.

Soledad’s Vision Zero Action Plan represents a policy-level commitment to improving traffic safety and working toward the long- term goal of eliminating traffic fatalities and serious injuries. Approval of the Plan does not commit the City to specific projects or immediate financial obligations.

Additionally, participation in this regional effort further supports coordination with TAMC and neighboring jurisdictions, promotes consistency in safety strategies, and strengthens the City’s competitiveness for future state and federal funding opportunities outside of SS4A.

Financial Considerations
There is no cost to the City associated with developing or adopting the Vision Zero Action Plan, as the planning effort is fully funded by a SS4A grant administered by TAMC.

Adoption of the Vision Zero Action Plan is a key eligibility requirement for the City to pursue future SS4A implementation funding. Staff have recently been notified of an upcoming call for projects under the SS4A program and are currently evaluating potential projects that meet the grant criteria.

Approval of this item will position the City to compete for federal funding opportunities to implement roadway safety improvements identified through the Vision Zero Action Plan, the Salinas Valley Safe 85 Resolution No. 6352
Exhibit A - Vision Zero Safety Plan
Routes to School Plan, the Local Road Safety Plan, and other transportation planning documents the City has developed over the years. While future grant applications may require local matching funds depending on the program requirements, no immediate financial commitment is required as part of this action.

Strategic Plan Alignment
This project is consistent with Objective 5.2 – Advance Vision Zero by Implementing the Safe Routes to School Plan and Other Safety Improvements. Specifically, the Strategic Plan identifies the goal to achieve zero traffic-related fatalities and severe injuries through data-driven design, education, enforcement, and collaboration. Improve safety for all users—especially pedestrians, cyclists, students, and seniors—across Soledad's transportation network.

Alternatives
Adopt the proposed Resolution; or
Do not adopt the proposed Resolution. This is not recommended, as the City would lose the opportunity to compete for SS4A Federal funding and future funding opportunities.

Planning/CEQA
The proposed action to adopt the Vision Zero Action Plan is not a “project” as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378, as it constitutes a planning and policy document that does not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

Adoption of the Plan does not approve or authorize any specific construction or implementation activities. Any future projects identified within the Vision Zero Action Plan will be subject to separate environmental review in accordance with CEQA, as applicable.

Public Notice Requirements
None required.

The Importance of Traffic Safety in Soledad
This plan focuses on traffic safety on
city-owned roadways in Soledad.

This plan studied city-owned and maintained
roads; state highways that are owned and
operated by Caltrans are not included in
this plan, but are discussed in the Monterey
County Regional Safety Action Plan.

Approximately 90 crashes were reported to
have resulted in an injury within Soledad city
limits from 2019 to 2023. Four of these crashes
resulted in a severe life-altering injury. Each
of these 90 crashes had a significant impact
on those involved, their family and friends,
and our greater community. These crashes
happened all across the City, and each one
under a unique set of circumstances, but
commonalities from the data emerged.
97 4
What is a Safety Action Plan?
A Safety Action Plan is a roadmap for
prioritizing and investing in the projects,
places, and efforts that are most likely to
reduce the risk of fatal and serious injury
crashes. This plan is part of a larger effort led
by the Transportation Agency of Monterey
County to develop regional and agencyspecific action plans. Development of these plans is funded by a grant awarded by the
U.S. Department of Transportation through
the Safe Streets and Roads for All program.

The Monterey County Regional Safety Action
Plan provides a broad view of the safety
needs across the entire region, and outlines
high priority strategies for addressing
risky behaviors and reducing crash risks
countywide. Individual agency plans, like
this one, provide a more localized look at
the unique safety needs and projects that
are important within each community.

MONTEREY COUNTY REGIONAL VISION ZERO SAFETY ACTION PLAN Figure 2. REGIONAL AND AGENCY-SPECIFIC PLANS
98 5

OUR SAFETY VISION AND GOAL
TAMC and the City of Soledad believe
that everyone deserves to travel safely.

To achieve this vision, TAMC has set an
ambitious and achievable goal to reduce
fatal and serious injuries by 30% by 2030
with the ultimate goal of eliminating fatal
and serious injuries by 2040. This Monterey
County Regional Vision Zero target was
officially adopted by the TAMC Executive
Board on March 25, 2026.

WHAT IS VISION ZERO?
Vision Zero is a global strategy to eliminate
traffic deaths and serious injuries in a certain
timeframe by treating them as preventable
events. In the U.S., the Vision Zero strategy
led to the adoption of the Federal Highway
Administration’s (FHWA) Safe System
Approach – a holistic roadway safety guide
that recognizes that humans make mistakes,
that our transportation network should be
designed to prevent fatal mistakes from
happening in the first place, and to minimize
the injury severity when a crash does occur.

WHAT IS A VISION ZERO SAFETY
ACTION PLAN AND WHY NOW?
Every year, approximately 40,000 people lose
their lives traveling on U.S. roadways. From
2019 to 2023 there were 90 total crashes
in the City of Soledad. Of those crashes,
34 resulted in a serious or minor injury.

These are not merely statistics – these
are members of our community, our family,
friends, kids, neighbors, and colleagues.

The City of Soledad is committed to reducing
and eventually eliminating the most severe
crashes in our city. This commitment takes
shape with effective strategies, policies,
programs, and projects that can be
implemented by the City and partner
agencies to reduce the risk of fatal and
serious injury crashes. This plan, in
coordination with the people and plans
developed for each agency in Monterey
County, will help us achieve our ambitious
regional Vision Zero goal together.

Zero is our goal.

A safe system is how we get there.

WHAT IS THE SAFE SYSTEM APPROACH?
The Safe System Approach is a framework
for effectively managing the diverse inherent
risks within the transportation system. As part
of this approach, multiple layers of protection
are created to prevent crashes and reduce
harm when crashes do occur. It is centered
on the idea that we all have a role to play in
creating a safer transportation system, and
achieving Vision Zero requires that we all do
our part to keep ourselves and others safe.

THERE ARE SIX KEY PRINCIPLES OF THE USDOT SAFE SYSTEM APPROACH:

1. Death and Serious Injuries are Unacceptable

2. Humans Make Mistakes

3. Humans are Vulnerable

4. Responsibility is Shared

5. Safety is Proactive

6. Redundancy is Crucial
Figure 3. USDOT SAFE SYSTEM APPROACH
100
7 Each of the six key principles in the Safe System Approach are supported by five main objectives:
1 Safer People Consider and address the safety of all road users, including those who walk, bike, drive, take transit, or travel by other modes.
2 Safer Roads Engineer roads to prioritize the safety of all road users, especially vulnerable road users, to minimize human mistakes, and to account for injury tolerance. 3 Safer Travel Options
(Safer Vehicles)
Expand the availability of safer travel options, including multimodal transportation networks, safe and reliable transit options, and advanced vehicle design and technologies. 4 Safer Speeds Promote safer speeds through context-appropriate roadway design, education, outreach, and enforcement.
5 Post-Crash Care
Enhance the survivability of a crash by making it easier and faster to receive emergency medical care and access trauma centers, create a safe working environment for emergency responders, and prevent secondary crashes.

While not yet an element of the USDOT Safe System wheel, the concept of Safer Land Use is gaining attention across the industry, and several states including California, Oregon, and Washington are considering adding it as a sixth element of the Safe System Approach. Land use decisions shape many aspects of the transportation system, including the ability for people to choose safer travel options and make fewer and shorter trips, reducing their exposure to crash risk.

8 SS4A REQUIRED ELEMENTS OF A
SAFETY ACTION PLAN:

Leadership commitment to a “Zero” goal
Involvement of a task force
Data-driven safety analysis
Robust public engagement
Assessment of policies, programs,
and processes
Prioritized projects that reflect
the Safe System Approach
Ongoing transparency and reporting
Developing this Plan
To help local agencies develop plans and implement roadway safety improvements that incorporate the Safe System Approach, a once-in-a-generation federal grant program known as Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) was developed to award demonstration and implementation funds to state and local agencies. The SS4A Grant Program is funded by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act starting in fiscal year 2022 and ends in fiscal year 2026. With SS4A funds, the TAMC has led the effort to develop regional, municipal, and rural county level action plans to help reduce and eventually eliminate fatal and serious injury crashes in Monterey County.

DATA-DRIVEN ANALYSIS
The cornerstone of this Plan is a data-driven
evaluation of safety needs and effective
solutions. We studied reported crash data, lived
experiences from community members, travel
patterns, and demographics to understand
where and why fatal and serious crashes are
happening. We then paired these findings with
national research, best practices, and local
knowledge to identify feasible, practical, locally
supported ways to save lives. More information
on the analysis and findings can be found in the
Where and Why Are Traffic Crashes Happening
and Plan of Action sections.

9 ENGAGING WITH SOLEDAD
The project team conducted two rounds of public outreach through workshops, pop-up events, and an online survey and comment map. The first round, held in Summer 2025, focused on understanding the challenges and opportunities related to transportation and safety in Soledad.

Feedback from the community during this phase was incorporated into the planning process and helped shape potential solutions.

The second round, conducted in Fall 2025,
presented the recommended challenge areas
and solutions back to the community for
input. Community members could review
the recommendations, project ideas, and
share their feedback.

The City of Soledad had a total of 42 comments
received through in-person comments, survey
responses, and the interactive comment map
throughout both phases of outreach. Figure 5
shows the board set up at the Phase 2 pop-up
event in Soledad.

10 Safety Concerns of Soledad
Concerns about speeding and traffic
congestion were shared by community
members. Figure 7 is a word cloud of the most
common words related to roadway safety that
community members in Soledad said or wrote
down during the outreach process.

Community members in Soledad expressed
support for safety improvements such as
daylighting, increased funding for maintenance
of pavement marking and striping, enforcement
strategies, a new speed/school zone on Market
Street and Benito Street (near Main Street
Middle School), a flashing beacon at the school
crossing on Gabilan Street in front of Soledad
High School, and treatments to reduce vehicle
speeds and turning conflicts near Jack
Franscioni Elementary School.

During Phase 2 of the outreach, community
members voted on which challenge areas were
most important to making Soledad streets safer.

The following challenge areas were identified
by community members in Soledad as being a
priority to improve safety:
• Pedestrians
• Aging Drivers
• Impaired Driving
• Intersections

TAMC VISION ZERO TASK FORCE
The Monterey County Vision Zero Task Force
was made up of safety partners across the
community, including representatives from
schools, medical and emergency response
professionals, community organizations, public
works, law enforcement, and fire departments.

Three task force groups were created to
capture the diverse area and interests in
Monterey County – the South County,
Peninsula, and Regional task forces. Task
Force membership included a mix of urban,
rural, and regional interests as participants
shared their input and experiences not just
where they work, but also where they live and
travel. This Plan incorporates safety concerns,
feedback, and suggestions for the City of
Soledad that were gathered from the South
County and Regional Task Force groups. Figure 7. SAFETY CONCERN AREAS WORD CLOUD 104
11 Where and Why are Traffic Crashes Happening?
To understand traffic safety risks and needs, we studied reported crash data for the most recent five years of available data, spanning January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2023. Crashes with no reported injuries, also referred to as property damage only crashes, were not included in the analysis.

CRASH TYPES
Understanding the most common types of
collisions that resulted in fatalities and serious
injuries on rural roadways can help tailor safety
improvements to address those patterns.

CRASHES INVOLVING

VULNERABLE ROAD USERS
Vulnerable road users (VRUs) include both
pedestrians and bicyclists.

Over five years, 90 crashes resulting in an injury
were reported on Soledad streets, including
3 serious injuries and 30 minor injuries.

PRIMARY CONTRIBUTING FACTORS
Across the US, over 90% of crashes are
the result of human error.

There is rarely a single cause of a crash, but
rather a combination of factors related to the
driver, vehicle, environment, or other road
users. The following summarizes trends in
the primary factor reported in crashes of all
severities on City of Soledad roads.*

12 HIGH INJURY NETWORK
The High Injury Network, or HIN, identifies the
roadways that have experienced the highest
number and severity of crashes. The HIN helps
focus the safety priorities and investments in
the areas with the highest need. A map of the
HIN is shown in Figure 8.

13 Challenge Areas
Challenge areas are not locations. They
represent the underlying crash patterns that
are most contributing to fatal and serious injury
crashes. In an environment of limited funding,
we must focus our resources on the efforts
that will make the biggest difference, and
emphasis areas help us do that. Challenge
areas provide a strategic framework for
developing and implementing safety
strategies, prioritizing capital projects,
guiding enforcement and education.

We applied a data-driven approach to selecting
challenge areas. We started with the list of
16 Challenge Areas outlined in the California
Strategic Highway Safety Plan, and used local
crash patterns and community input to select
the subset that best reflect local needs.

The City of Soledad challenge areas are
focused on those that reflect the unique needs
of the City, while the Monterey County Region
plan captures those that are more broadly
applicable across the entire region.

OF FATAL AND SERIOUS

INJURY CRASHES

IN SOLEDAD (HIGHER THAN

STATEWIDE AVERAGE)
Intersections are the primary source of conflicts
between road users of all types, including
drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists. Crash
severity and patterns depend on the type of
traffic control (traffic signal, stop signs, or a
roundabout), but often include rear-end, turning,
and angle crashes. Intersection crashes that
involve speeding, red-light running, and
vulnerable users are more likely to result in
people being seriously injured or killed.

PEDESTRIANS
75%

OF FATAL AND SERIOUS

INJURY CRASHES

IN SOLEDAD (HIGHER THAN

STATEWIDE AVERAGE)
Pedestrians are some of the most vulnerable
users of a roadway network, and many
younger and older people travel on foot,
which compounds this vulnerability. Even if
their primary mode of travel is by car, everyone
is a pedestrian at some point during their trip,
whether to get to a bus stop, a parking spot,
or even the mailbox. Crashes involving
pedestrians can occur at intersections, at
mid-block locations, or along streets where
there is not a safe place to walk. Because
pedestrians aren’t protected by a vehicle,
even low-speed crashes can cause serious
injury or death.
108
15 Plan of Action
Achieving Vision Zero by eliminating traffic
deaths and severe injuries will take real action—
doing nothing is not an option. However, we
also must recognize that the City of Soledad
has limited resources, and we must focus on
the efforts with the biggest safety benefits,
measure progress, and make informed
decisions to improve safety for everyone.

The recommendations in this Plan are meant
to guide future work, not lock the City into a
fixed set of actions. They provide a starting
point for funding requests and project
design, and they will be updated over time
as conditions change, new funding becomes
available, projects are completed, and more
community input is received. In that way, this
Safety Action Plan is not just a summary of
current conditions—it’s a practical tool to help
the City of Soledad make steady progress
toward safer roads.

The following sections summarize the
recommended efforts and projects that are
most likely to save lives in Soledad, as well as
a guide for implementing those projects and
monitoring progress.

EXISTING EFFORTS
Providing a safe transportation system has been
a guiding principle for Soledad for many years.

In 2022, the City adopted their first Local Road
Safety Plan, which allowed the City to pursue
grant funding for safety projects and also set
a strong foundation for this safety action plan.

The City also has an Active Transportation Plan
and a Safe Routes to School Plan, which focus
on improving safety and mobility for those who
walk and bike around the City. Many other
City plans, programs, and efforts highlight the
importance of transportation safety in Soledad,
including the 2026 Strategic Plan, which
includes specific goals related to roadway
safety and mobility.
• 5.1 - Goal: Promote Active Transportation
and Pedestrian Safety
• 5.2 - Goal: Advance Vision Zero by
Implementing the Safe Routes to School
Plan and Other Safety Improvements
• 5.4 - Goal: Improve Traffic Management,
Road Safety, and Infrastructure
The City continues to work toward these goals
through construction of road improvements,
regular maintenance activities, studying and
planning for future needs, and pursuing grant
funding for future projects. These are just a
few of the recently completed or currently
underway projects aimed at improving safety
on city roads:
• Front Street Maintenance Project
• HSIP Cycle 10 Pedestrian
Safety Improvements
• The West Street Road Diet and Complete
Streets Project to be completed in 26/27
• City-wide Striping Plan occurring
this summer
• Safe Routes to School Safety Improvement
• Metz Road Roundabout
• Dixi Street SS & Water Line Replacement

SAFE SYSTEM STRATEGIES
When we think of ways to improve safety, many people think only of engineering projects. However, through the Safe System Approach, we know that achieving Vision Zero will require a variety of efforts and investments that are much more broad than a list of capital projects.

THE STRATEGIES ARE INTENDED TO COMPLIMENT AND SUPPORT ENGINEERING PROJECTS IN THREE KEY WAYS:

1. Elevate the importance of traffic safety
within our agency

2. Make it easier to fund or build
safety improvements

3. Encourage safe behaviors and foster a stronger
culture of traffic safety in our community
Table 1 lists the recommended strategies that will help the City of Soledad better prioritize safety and move projects forward.

PROJECTS
Across the High Injury Network, there are a variety of safety needs that can be addressed through a combination of systemic (proactive) and hotspot (reactive) projects.

Systemic projects aim to treat one or more
underlying risk factors by installing a low-cost
treatment at several similar locations. An
example of a systemic project would be
upgrading warning signs at 30 stop-controlled
intersections that have limited sight distance.

Hotspot projects, on the other hand, tend to
include higher cost solutions that improve safety
at a single location where there is a high risk for
crashes and/or where there has been a history
of severe crashes. An example of a hotspot
project would be installing a roundabout at
a stop-controlled intersection with a history
of multiple fatal and severe injury crashes.

The following project tables list the hotspot
and systemic solutions that address the
primary crash patterns associated with fatal
and serious injury crashes on Soledad roads,
with a focus on roadways that are on the
High Injury Network.

20 In addition to location-specific strategies, the Plan identifies opportunities for systemic, citywide safety improvements on Soledad roadways, particularly along corridors that are part of the City’s HIN. Systemic treatments applied consistently across similar roadway types can proactively reduce crash risk, even in locations with few reported crashes.

21 RESOURCES AND TOOLS
Our understanding of safety strategies,
their effectiveness, and best practices for
implementation are continually evolving.

The following state and federal resources
may be useful when identifying safety
strategies for a specific location, underlying
risk, or crash pattern:
• FHWA Proven Safety Countermeasures
• FHWA Proven Safety Countermeasures
in Rural Communities
• NHTSA Countermeasures that Work
• USDOT National Roadway Safety Strategy
• Caltrans Local Roadway Safety Manual
• Safe System Roadway Design Hierarchy
We recognize that much of this plan is based
on a snapshot of reported crashes, and that
new high-crash locations and crash patterns
may emerge in the coming years. The
Monterey County Regional Safety Action Plan
includes several tools and resources that
can be used to diagnose safety risks and
find effective solutions.

Safe System Toolbox: A comprehensive
list of safety countermeasures, expected
safety benefits, and considerations for
implementation.

Case Studies: 24 example case studies
of locations throughout Monterey
County that highlight common crash
trends, site characteristics, and
potential countermeasures.
115
22 PRIORITIZING INVESTMENTS
Recognizing the reality of the City’s limited resources and inability to complete all recommended projects, investments should be prioritized, based on the following data-driven criteria to maximize the potential safety benefits (listed in order of importance). 1 High Injury Network Focus
Highest priority should be given to projects located on or directly addressing corridors and intersections identified on the High Injury Network. These locations represent a disproportionate share of fatal and serious injury crashes and offer the greatest opportunity for measurable safety benefits. 2 Systemic Safety Opportunity
Projects that can be implemented systemically to benefit a large proportion of the community, such as speed management, signing and striping upgrades, and low-cost intersection enhancements, should be prioritized to proactively reduce risk before crashes occur. 3 Proximity to Schools
and Youth Activity Areas
Projects near K–12 schools, childcare facilities, parks, and other youth-oriented destinations should be prioritized, particularly those that improve walking and bicycling safety. This includes improvements aligned with Safe Routes to School programs and corridors with documented student travel demand. 4 Vulnerable Road Users
Priority should be given to projects that improve safety for pedestrians, bicyclists, older adults, people with disabilities, and transit users. Locations with a history of pedestrian- or bicycle-involved crashes, or where vulnerable users are exposed to high-speed or high-volume traffic, should rank highly. 5 Disadvantaged
Community Considerations
Projects serving communities disproportionately impacted by traffic injuries, areas of persistent poverty, or communities with limited access to safe transportation options should be elevated. 6 Feasibility and Readiness Project readiness, cost-effectiveness, ease of implementation, and compatibility with planned roadway or capital projects should be considered to maximize near-term safety benefits. 116
23 FUNDING SOURCES
Implementing this Plan will require assembling
funding from multiple levels – federal, state,
regional, and local, based on project type
(capital vs. programmatic), sponsor eligibility
(TAMC vs. local jurisdictions), and readiness
(quick-build vs. construction). The 2026 TAMC
Regional Transportation Improvement Program
(RTIP) confirms that Monterey County projects
already draw from a broad mix of sources,
including federal formula programs state
programs, and local funds.

Federal Funding Sources
Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) – USDOT
SS4A is the primary federal funding source
for Vision Zero and Safe System efforts. It
provides about $1B/year (2022–2026) for
local agencies to complete safety planning
and deliver safety projects. Grant types
include Planning (about $100K–$1M) and
Implementation (about $1M–$20M, requires
an adopted safety action plan). A 20% local
match is required and may include in-kind
contributions. SS4A is well suited for systemic
safety improvements, Safe Routes to School,
and education/enforcement programs.

Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)
HSIP funds infrastructure projects with proven
crash reduction benefits, including signals,
striping/signing, crosswalks, beacons, rumble
strips, guardrails, and other countermeasures.

Projects using a systemic approach, targeting
the High Injury Network, and aligning with
Vision Zero priorities are typically most
competitive. Cycles occur about every
1–2 years (next anticipated in 2026).

INFRA Competitive Grants – FHWA
INFRA supports large, corridor-scale projects
with strong regional or national benefits.

Projects combining safety with freight, transit,
and multimodal access may be competitive.

IIJA / Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL)
The IIJA expanded federal transportation
funding, including SS4A and major competitive
programs such as RAISE, which can support
safety, multimodal access, and state-of-goodrepair improvements.

Transportation Alternatives (TA) Set-Aside – FHWA
TA supports smaller-scale pedestrian and
bicycle projects, including Safe Routes to
School, trails, sidewalks, bikeways, crossings,
and traffic calming—especially near schools
and in high pedestrian activity areas.

State of California Funding Sources
Active Transportation Program (ATP)
ATP is California’s primary competitive
program for walking and biking projects
and related planning and safety programs,
including Safe Routes to School and
education/enforcement efforts.

SB 1 (Road Repair and Accountability Act)
SB 1 provides ongoing state funding for
roadway rehabilitation and safety upgrades.

Key categories include local streets/roads
maintenance, bicycle and pedestrian
improvements (often through ATP), and
planning grants.

State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP)
STIP funds major multi-year capital projects
on state and local networks. Projects with
clear safety benefits and regional mobility/
connectivity value may be good candidates.

California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) Grants
OTS provides annual grants for noninfrastructure safety strategies such as education, enforcement, emergency response
support, and safety campaigns, based
on documented crash and safety needs.
117
24 Programming + Local Funding
RTIP/TIP Programming
The Safety Action Plan should serve as a
project pipeline, helping move projects into
RTIP/TIP programming for construction using
sources such as HSIP, ATP, STIP, and SB 1.

Local Revenues + Development Fees
Local funds are critical for grant match, quickbuild pilots, and near-term improvements.

Development impact fees and mitigation
funding can also support safety upgrades
in growth areas and high-need corridors.

MONITORING PERFORMANCE
A core element of Vision Zero is the
commitment to accountability and
transparency, ensuring that the City of
Soledad’s progress toward eliminating fatal
and serious injury crashes can be measured,
monitored, and communicated clearly to
the public. Performance measures provide
the framework for tracking that progress over
time and evaluating whether the strategies
and investments outlined in this Plan are
producing meaningful results.

As strategies and projects are implemented,
it is vital to regularly monitor citywide safety
performance to determine the effectiveness
of those efforts, and make adjustments to
future investments and priorities, as needed.

Moving forward, the City of Soledad will use
the following performance measures to track
the successful implementation of this plan.

Number of fatal and serious injury crashes
on City roadways (total)
Number of fatal and serious injury crashes
by challenge area:
• At intersections
• Involving pedestrians
These performance measures can be tracked
in coordination with TAMC’s planned safety
performance report, which will be prepared
and shared annually. TAMC is in the process of
establishing a regional crash database that will
allow for more timely, accurate, and accessible
local crash data, and will also allow for
improved regional data sharing capabilities.
118
25 A Call to Action
We all have a shared responsibility to keep ourselves and others safe when we travel. Infrastructure matters, but so do the choices we make every day. Whether you are behind the wheel, on a bike, or walking, each of us plays a role by slowing down, staying alert, and respecting the rules of the road. Together, we can build a culture where getting home safely is the expectation, every time, for everyone.

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 6353, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad in Support of City of Soledad Measure A, A Measure Establishing a Special Parcel Tax to be Levied on Properties Within the City based on Land Use to Fund Fire and Emergency Medical Services TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Mike Rodriquez, City Attorney
MEETING DATE: April 15, 2026

CITY OF SOLEDAD

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

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council approve Resolution No.6353, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad in "Support of City of Soledad Measure A, a Measure Establishing a Special Parcel Tax to be Levied on Properties Within the City Based on Land Use to Fund Fire and Emergency Medical Services."
Executive Summary
On February 18, 2026, the Soledad City Council adopted Resolution No. 6329, placing Measure A on the ballot of the June 2, 2026, consolidated Statewide Direct Primary election, that if passed by a twothirds majority of the voters would establish a special parcel tax to be levied on properties within the City to fund fire and emergency medical services. Without additional financial resources, it is the Council’s opinion that the City will not be able to maintain the provision of effective fire and emergency medical services or purchase equipment vital to public safety services. The Council now wishes to consider the adoption of a resolution demonstrating its support for Measure A, and urging voters to learn the facts concerning the City’s current fiscal condition and the status of the Soledad Fire Department in order to make a reasoned and educated decision concerning Measure A.

Background
Despite the City’s history of prudent and fiscally responsible funding efforts, the Soledad Fire Department (SFD), which currently serves the City of Soledad and the Mission-Soledad Fire Protection District’s approximately 24,000 citizens as first responders for all 911 emergency calls, faces growing financial challenges that threaten SFD’s ability to continue to provide reliable, effective responses to the community. So, for instance, currently the City lacks sufficient funding to increase fire department staffing from 2 to 3 personnel, 24 hours a day, which is the recommended national standard for rapid emergency medical and fire 911 response. Lack of funding has also caused the Department to fall 120
behind in replacing old and outdated medical incident response equipment and supplies and other types of equipment used by firefighters and emergency medical technicians. Without additional financial resources, it is the Council’s opinion that the City will not be able to maintain the provision of effective fire and emergency medical services or purchase equipment vital to public safety services.

Review & Analysis
In response to the aforesaid conditions, on February 18, 2026, the Soledad City Council adopted Resolution No. 6329, placing a question on the ballot of a consolidated Statewide Direct Primary election on June 2, 2026, for voter consideration of a measure that would establish a special parcel tax to be levied on properties within the City to fund fire and emergency medical services. If the proposed measure, designated “Measure A” by the County elections department, is passed by at least a two-thirds majority of the voters, the City would levy a new annual parcel tax on real property of $233.00/single family unit, $174.00/multi-unit, and $99.00-$134.00 plus $.07 per building square foot for nonresidential parcels, adjusted annually. It is estimated that the new tax would generate approximately $1,000,000 per year. All tax revenues collected by imposition of the new special parcel tax would be used exclusively for 911 emergency medical and fire response, including but not limited to increasing fire department staffing, as well as the replacement of old and outdated medical incident response equipment and supplies, breathing apparatuses, protective clothing and other equipment used in providing emergency fire and medical services.

The City would deposit all revenues it receives from the proposed parcel tax into a special fund dedicated exclusively to fire and emergency medical services. All expenditures of such funds would be subject to both independent audit and the oversight of the City’s Tax Citizen’s Oversight Committee.

By adopting the attached resolution, the Council would be expressing its support for Measure A and urging voters to learn the facts concerning the City’s current fiscal condition and the status of the Soledad Fire Department in order to make a reasoned and educated decision concerning Measure A.

Financial Considerations
There is no impact to the budget by adoption of a resolution supporting Measure A.

Strategic Plan Alignment
The approval of Resolution No. 6353, aligns with the City Council’s 2025 Strategic Plan by supporting continued progress toward one of the City’s key goals and priorities of the Safety Pillar by advancing Goal 6.5 - Maintain adequately staf ed and well-equipped fire and emergency services to protect life, property, and community safety.

Alternatives
Adopt Resolution No. 6353, in support of Measure A
Do not adopt Resolution No. 6353, however this might result in some uncertainty in the community as to whether Measure A has the support of each member of the City Council Planning/CEQA
The proposed resolution does not constitute a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Since adoption of the resolution will not result in any direct or reasonably foreseeable physical change to the environment, per CEQA Guidelines Section 15378, it is not considered a project and no environmental review is required.

WHEREAS, despite the City’s history of prudent and fiscally responsible funding efforts, the Soledad Fire Department (SFD), which currently serves the City of Soledad and the MissionSoledad Fire Protection District’s approximately 24,000 citizens as first responders for all 911 emergency calls, faces growing financial challenges that threaten SFD’s ability to continue to provide reliable, effective responses to the Soledad community; and WHEREAS, without additional financial resources, the City of Soledad will not be able to maintain the provision of effective fire and emergency medical services or purchase equipment vital to such services; and
WHEREAS, if Measure A is passed by a two-thirds majority of the voters at the consolidated Statewide Direct Primary election on June 2, 2026, the City would levy a new annual parcel tax of $233.00/single family unit, $174.00/multi-unit, and $99.00-$134.00 plus $.07 per building square foot for non-residential parcels, adjusted annually, providing an estimated $1,000,000 per year; and
WHEREAS, if Measure A is passed, all tax revenues collected by imposition of the new special parcel tax would be used exclusively for 911 emergency medical and fire response, including increased fire department staffing from 2 to 3 personnel, 24 hours a day, to meet recommended national standards for rapid emergency medical and fire 911 response, as well as the replacement of old and outdated medical incident response equipment and supplies, breathing apparatuses, protective clothing and other equipment used by firefighters and emergency medical technicians; and
WHEREAS, if Measure A is passed, the City would deposit all revenues it receives from the proposed parcel tax into a special fund dedicated exclusively to fire and emergency medical services, subject to both independent audit and the oversight of the City’s Tax Citizen’s Oversight Committee; and
123
WHEREAS, the City Council sincerely believes that the adoption of Measure A will support City of Soledad Strategic Plan Goal 6.5 - Maintain adequately staffed and well-equipped fire and emergency services to protect life, property and community safety.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the City Council as follows:

Section 1. The City Council of the City of Soledad, and each member hereof, does herby support Measure A- The Soledad Parcel Tax Measure.

Section 2. The City Council urges the citizens of Soledad to learn the facts concerning the City’s current fiscal condition and the status of the Soledad Fire Department in order to make a reasoned and educated decision concerning Measure A.

Section 3. Notwithstanding this resolution of support, the Council is fully aware of the restrictions imposed on the use of City funds to support ballot measures, and represents that no public funds have been or will be used to campaign for or against Measure A

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 6354, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad Approving and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Letter of Intent with HMBY, LP to Purchase Miravale II Parcel B for $2.5 Million and Authorizing a $10,000 Deposit in an Escrow Account for the Purpose of Facilitating Affordable Housing
TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Megan Hunter, City Manager
MEETING DATE: April 15, 2026

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH:

AGENDA ITEM NO. 3.

Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council consider and adopt Resolution No. 6354, “Approving and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Letter of Intent with HMBY, LP to Purchase Miravale II Parcel B for $2.5 Million and Authorizing a $10,000 Deposit in an Escrow Account for the Purpose of Facilitating Affordable Housing.”
Executive Summary
Staff is seeking City Council authorization to execute a non-binding Letter of Intent to acquire Miravale II Parcel B, a 4.05-acre, fully entitled residential site approved for 61 units, in order to advance the City’s Housing Element goals and address its Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) shortfall. Due to uncertainty regarding the current owner’s development timeline, the City has the opportunity to take control of the site, similar to its successful 540 Gabilan acquisition, and facilitate timely development through the selection of a qualified partner. The proposed $2.5 million acquisition would be funded through a combination of County Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds and other sources, with no General Fund impact. The Letter of Intent allows the City to proceed with due diligence, including appraisal and soils testing, while securing funding and negotiating a future Purchase and Sale Agreement for future Council consideration.

Background
On October 15, 2025, the City Council approved a Planned Unit Development (PUD-23001) and Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map (TM-23002) for “Miravale Parcel B,” a 4.05-acre site located off Orchard Lane immediately adjacent to Orchard Lane Park and near San Vicente School.

The site is designated and zoned R-3 (High-Density Residential) under the Soledad Municipal Code, 125
which permits 12 to 22 dwelling units per acre. The approved project includes:
37 small-lot single-family detached units
24 multi-family attached units
Internal private streets, utilities, and landscaped open space Once developed, the project would advance the City’s Housing Element goals by supporting affordable housing development, promoting infill on underutilized land, and providing a diverse mix of housing types. However, staff were concerned this may not happen soon, given HMBY’s competing priorities, including the development of Parcel E and the completion of approvals for Miramonte. Staff inquired whether HMBY would consider selling the property to the City if outside funding could be secured.

HMBY expressed interest and offered the property for sale at a purchase price of $2.5 million.

Review & Analysis
As the City is implementing its 6th Cycle Housing Element, it has become evident that Soledad lacks a sufficient inventory of sites to meet its Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). Acquisition of Parcel B presents a meaningful opportunity to address this shortfall by facilitating development of a 37- unit small-lot subdivision of single-family homes for the local workforce, along with 24 multi-family units affordable to low- and moderate-income households.

This approach is similar to the 2024 acquisition of 540 Gabilan, which allowed the City to control the development and ensure we could advance the Housing Element and our RHNA goals. With land control, the City will be able to select the right development partner capable of delivering the project in a timely manner.

As noted above, the site is already entitled, with a Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map approved by the City Council on October 15, 2025. It is ideally located adjacent to Orchard Lane Park and along the MST circulator route, making it well-suited for residential development and likely to attract many interested developers, particularly if land costs are significantly reduced.

The City has engaged with Monterey County, which has expressed a willingness to contribute approximately $1.68 million of Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds toward the acquisition of the property. On March 26, 2026 (Attachment 1), the Health, Housing, Homeless, and Human Services Committee of the County Board of Supervisors recommended that the Board of Supervisors approve this allocation for the acquisition of Parcel B. This meeting will be scheduled in May. In addition, the City is actively pursuing approximately $820,000 in supplemental funding to cover the gap between the purchase price and PLHA allocation. Staff is also exploring the use of Soledad Housing Authority funds, which may be an eligible funding source, subject to completion of required administrative processes.

The proposed Letter of Intent (LOI) is intended to demonstrate to both the County and the property owner that the City is committed to pursuing acquisition, while allowing time to complete the necessary due diligence prior to entering into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (PSA). As part of this process, the City will obtain an independent appraisal to confirm that the proposed purchase price of $2.5 million reflects fair market value. The City will also conduct geotechnical (soils) testing and continue efforts to secure the full funding package. No General Fund resources would be used for the acquisition.

Following completion of due diligence, the City and Agha Development would proceed with negotiation of a Purchase and Sale Agreement, which would be brought back to the City Council for consideration and approval. The $10,000 earnest money deposit placed into escrow would be credited 126
Resolution No. 6354
Exhibit A - Letter of Intent
Attachment 1 - Monterey County Board Report
Attachment 2 - Parcel B Tentative Map Plans
toward the purchase price at closing. If the transaction does not proceed or the City does not ultimately acquire the property, the deposit would be returned in full.

Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the non-binding Letter of Intent (Exhibit A). Upon completion of due diligence, staff will return to City Council with a proposed Purchase and Sale Agreement for consideration. As part of the LOI, the City will place a $10,000 deposit into an escrow account to be applied toward the purchase price of the property.

Financial Considerations
The City is actively working to secure Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds through the County to support the acquisition. Additional grant funding sources have been identified that could bridge the remaining funding gap, assuming the $2.5 million purchase price is confirmed through appraisal. As noted above, the City may also be able to utilize Soledad Housing Authority funds; however, certain reporting and administrative requirements must be completed before those funds can be accessed. No General Fund resources would be used for the acquisition.

The $10,000 deposit associated with the Letter of Intent would be funded through General Government Impact Fees, as the site’s location adjacent to Orchard Lane Park presents the potential for broader community-serving uses.

Strategic Plan Alignment
Acquisition of Parcel B aligns with the Housing Goal 2.7 - Evaluate and Activate City-Owned and Vacant Land for Housing Development. Moreover, there is a specific Objective 2.7.3 in the Strategic Plan that encourages the City to proactively acquire key sites to facilitate achieving our RHNA goals.

Alternatives
Adopt the proposed Resolution and authorize the City Manager to execute the Letter of Intent; or Disapprove or take no action on Letter of Intent. Such action would prevent any further progress on Purchase and Sale Agreement.

Planning/CEQA
Execution of the Letter of Intent does not constitute a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as it is a preliminary, non-binding agreement and does not commit the City to a definite course of action.

Public Notice Requirements
Not required.

NON-BINDING LETTER OF INTENT TO PURCHASE AND

SELL CERTAIN REAL PROPERTY
This non-binding Letter of Intent (“LOI”) expresses the mutual interest and desire of the City of Soledad, a municipal corporation organized under the laws of the State of California (the “City”) and HMBY LP “Owner” to negotiate and enter into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (“PSA”) under which HMBY LP will sell, and the City will purchase, certain real property located at Parcel B, as shown on the Subdivision Map entitled “Tract No. 1537-Summerfield 3” filed for record on March 19, 2018, in Book 24 of Cities and Towns, at Page 59, of the official records of Monterey County and identified by Monterey County Assessor’s Parcel Number 022-522-037- 000 (the “Property”). Each party acknowledges that this LOI is intended to memorialize the mutual interest, desire, and good faith between the parties, but this LOI does not create a legally binding obligation. Each party further acknowledges that their respective rights and obligations in connection with the purchase and sale of the Property shall be governed by a mutually acceptable and fully executed PSA.

Such PSA shall include, but is not limited to, the following basic terms:

1. Identification and Description of the Property, including a metes and bounds legal description.

2. Statement of HMBY LP’s fee interest in the Property, to be confirmed by a title report from a title company qualified to do business in the State of California.

3. Purchase price for the Property, based on an appraisal of fair market value of the Property by a qualified, independent real property appraiser.

4. HMBY LP’s conveyance to the City of fee simple title to the Property.

5. Escrow instructions, including provisions for the City’s initial deposit and the closing of escrow.

6. Title insurance insuring the City’s title to the Property.

7. Compliance with all applicable federal, state, and/or local laws, ordinances, and regulations relating to the environmental conditions on, under or about the Property.

Within 10 business days following the execution of this LOI by the City and HMBY LP, the City shall deposit into an escrow account the amount of $10,000 as an earnest money deposit (“Deposit”) against the purchase price for the Property. At the closing of the purchase and sale Exhibit A
130
of the Property, the Deposit shall be applied as a credit against the purchase price paid by the City. In the event the purchase and sale of the property does not close and/or the City does not otherwise acquire the Property, the Deposit shall be immediately returned to the City.

The parties acknowledge that they have not entered into any agreement to negotiate a mutually acceptable PSA pursuant to this LOI, and either party may, at any time prior to execution of such PSA, propose different terms from those summarized herein and/or unilaterally terminate all negotiations without any liability whatsoever to the other party. The City is actively pursuing funding for the purchase through the County’s Permanent Local Housing Allocation Program (PLHA) and other similar restricted sources and would not use the City’s General Fund. Failure of the City to secure these funds, or the City and HMBY LP to reach an agreement on the purchase and sale of the Property will not be evidence of a lack of good faith on the part of either or both of them.

HMBY LP acknowledges that many of the actions required of the City to fulfill the matters described herein are subject to public review and comment, and approval by the Soledad City Council. HMBY LP further acknowledges that the City is subject to the Ralph M. Brown Act (“Brown Act”) and the California Public Records Act (“CPRA”), and that the City is, at all times, bound by the publication and disclosure requirements of the Brown Act and CPRA. It is mutually understood by the parties that this LOI does not eliminate any of the public processes and legal requirements under which the City is bound, nor does this LOI legally bind any members of the City Council to vote in a particular way.

The above is accepted and confirmed by:
